THE MAUSOLEUM.
History and Description of General Grants
Last Resting Place.
Nearly score of years ago, when
General and Mrs. Grant were in Europe,
they visited together the tomb of Isa-
bella and Ferdinand The sight of that
royal couple who had been sleeping
there side by side in peace for centuries
appealed to the usually practical and
unsentimental soldier. Turning to his
wife, he said tenderly:
Julia, this is the way we should
rest in death "
Years afterward, when death had
claimed the great general and his body
had been brought down from Mount
McGregor to New York city, where it
passed through miles of solidly packed
mourners, there came requests from diff
ferent parts of the country for the honor
Of providing last resting place. 1lli-
nois wanted it because that state was
popularity regarded as his home. Ohio
protested that he was native of that
commonwealth. West Point put in
strong plea because there he had begun
his military career. Chicago clamored
for the honor because many of Grants
friends lived there
New Workers insisted that General
Grant had become citizen of that mu-
nicipality after retiring to private life
and that it was his request that he be
buried on Manhattan Island Mrs.
Grant settled the question by deciding
in favor Of New York. whose citizens
had not only promised to erect hand
some tomb, but to provide place for
her beside her illustrious husband when
she should go to her long rest
AS soon as it was decided temporary
tomb, hastily made Of brick, was con-
structed, a monument committee was
appointed, and then began the work of
raising the fund. After the first rush,
during which over 800, 900 rolled in
the subscriptions came more slowly, o
in 1892, seven years after Grant IS de-
the fund amounted to only 81 o

OAK RIDGE INSTITUTE NOTES.
The Outlook is Good For the Best Open
ing in the History of the School.

Oak Ridge, y. c.. Aug 18.-(SpeciaD
The vacation is drawing rapidly to a
close, and the professors are returning
from their vacation. Prof. A. B. Kim
ball has spent the summer in the Uni
versity Law School. Prof. w. G. Kirk
man and wife have been away most of
the vacation at the home of their par
ents in Liberty: Prof. T. e. Whitaker
has just returned from Piedmont
Springs: Prof. NJ. II. Holt has been in
the eastern portion of the State most
of the time and reports carloads of
boys packing their trunks for Oak
Ridge Institute. Miss Ora M. Knight
has recently gone to Hendersonville. n
c., where she has accepted a position
in Prof. Maury's school. Prof. J. Al
len Holt with a half dozen stenograph-
ers has held the fort at home most of the
vaca tion sending ont 1000 catalogues
and 5000 posters and circulars, and an
swering a volumnOus correspondence.
Every indication points TO the largest
opening in the history of the school. The
boarding houses are rapidly filing up
with applications and everything is being
put in apple-pie order for the opening
next week.
The principals expect to burn over
quarter of a million brick this fall so
as to be able to erect at the opening of
the spring large boarding establish
ment and dormitory ready for the fall
of 1898.
There is a large demand among the
business men of the State for young men
fitted here, and the principals are una
BILE to meet it as fast a applications are
received.
The weather has been almost perfect
this summer. We have had only two
days since July 4th in which the govern
ment thermometer registered above 90
and only one night through the whole
summer that was above 10 We have
had good breezes every day but two
According to the railroad surveys Oak
Ridge, while only IA miles distant. is
200 feet higher than Greensboro. There
has not been a case of fever here in two
summers and there was not single
case of protracted sickness among the
two hundred boarding students last year
The school tax election came off yes
terday and the tax was downed by a
vote of nine to one in this township. The
tax would have been defeated if every
vote cast had been "fOr schools" as
less than half of the registered vote was
polled. Two causes initiated against it;
the indispOsitiOn to increase an already
burdensome tax, and general dissatisfac-
ton with the new school law.
Crops are magnificent.

SWEEPING INJUNCTION.
(Asheville Citizen.)

An injunction that forbids strikers
from inducing" men to leave work
certainly goes too far. 1t would for
bid peaceful argument, one man with
another, and strikes at the right of
free speech AS Debs says. the judges
are trying to enj0in him off the face
of the earth. 1t is probably true that
the strikers would have been better off
if Dobs had kept away from the scene
of the contest, for his reputation gain
ed in the Chicago riots prOvOkes the
suggestion that his presence means
trouble, and this, too, notwithstanding
he has advised the striking miners to
submit to anything rather than break
the peace.
We fail to see the difference between
an injunction forbidding strikers from
talking with men not strikers, and an
injunction forbidding the owners of the
mines from talking with their own men
to induce them not to strike; and yet
and injunction for the latter purpose
would rightly be regarded as n mon
strous invasion of the rights of the in
dividual. How, then, can we look diff
ferently on the injunction granted
against the strikers? They have at
tempted no violence; they have destroyed
no property; they have kept we'll within
their rights as citizens, guaranteed the
right of free speech by the constitution
of the United States. Our Pittsburg
telegram saying that this injunction is
regarded as the most sweeping yet issued
seems to be an accurate characterize
ton

NEWBERN- MORBHEAD GAME.
A Baseball Squabble in Which New.
bern's Side is Stated.

A Basel Ball Squabble in Which New
bern's Side is Stated.
Newborn, n. c.. Aug. 10.-(Special)-
The report of the baseball game between
Newbern and Morehead City, sent out
from Morehead City under date of Au-
gust 10th, is utterly false. The truth
is Morehead has won no game from
Newbern. MOrehead, by an overthrow,
succeeded in scoring two runs in the
fifth inning, which put her one ahead of
Newbern, and from that time till the
beginning of the first half of the
seventh, Morehead began to kick and
abuse the umpire, declaring that they
would not abide by his decisions. In
this inning the Newbern boys began to
bat heavy-for a change-pacing it
where they pleased. Morehead saw that
the only way for them to get out of it
without letting Newbern pile up runs,
'throwed up the sponge" and quit, say
ing the umpire, Mr.. Stevens, was rob-
bling them-when he was complying to
rules governing up-tO-date ball-playing,
and the Morehead team was too ignorant
of the rules of the game to solve it in
any other capacity than the umpire was
robbing them by his decisions.
Your correspondent was evidently made
to believe just what he wired, but |
send the matter as it was, and as |
saw it on the diamond
Let Morehead play by her rules, and
give them a Morehead umpire, they
would defeat every team in the National
League to-day in routine order.
The fact is Morehead left the field
amid Kisses from the grand stand, re-
fusing to play the game that they had
agreed to, when they made a forfeit,
and the umpire gave the game to New
berne 8 to 0.
The Morehead team has been guilty
of this same action on the diamond here
before Last summer they left the
field in game with Newbern, when they
saw that they were not the "Only peb-
bles on the beach," if they did come
from Morehead City ''by the sea-"

above in justice to Newbern and espe-
cially the baseball team, who can beat
