END or THE UNIVERSE.
low IL Will Como to rass According TO
the Norseland Myth.


One of tho most striking OF the Morse
land myths is that in which Is pictured
the end of the universe, when all the gods
of Asgard and Niflleheim, and the inhabit-
ants of Jotunheim and Midpard, together
with their habitations, would be destroyed
That this catastrophe would come to all
the visible cseation they firmly believed,
for their untaught minds could not con-
ceive of Immortality.
And this is how they pictured the fear.
full time: Three winters would come upon
tho earth, one after another, without the
tempering influence OF a single summer.
Snow would fall from every quarter of the
heavens; wild storms would sweep over
the earth, with tcmpestuous winds that
nothing could withstand, and the sun
would lose It's heat.
Three other winters would succeed the
first three, during which red visaged war
would stalk over the universe, leaving
blood and death in his ruthless track.
Then the earth would begin to tremble In
uncomfortable fear; the sen would rush
from its bed; the heavens would be rent,
and the eagles of the air would feast upon
the still quivering flesh of multitudcs of
men slain without warning.
Fenris, the wolf monster, would throw
off his bonds; tho Midgard serpent, whose
gigantic form encircled the world, would
rise from its lair, and LOki, the evil genius
of the universe, would desert the gods and
90 back among their enemies. Surtur
would lead his followers to the Bifrost
bridge, devouring flames before and behind
them, and, having destroyed IL In their
passage, they would join Loki and the
frost giants on the battlefield Of Vigrid
where Fcnris, the Midgard serpent and the
hosts of Hela had already assembled
Meanwhile, Heimdall, the watchman OF
Asgard, the abode of the gods, would sound
the alarm with the Giallar horn, summon
ing the celestial cohorts to the field. Odin
clad in all the splcndor Of his supreme Of
fee, would lead forth the gods in martial
array. Fenris, pressing forward, would
throw himself upon Odn with flerceness
that the deity could not withstand and the
All Father would fall, pierced with n
thousand wounds from tho monsters g
fangs.
Then Vidar, the son of Odin, would fall
like a thunderbolt upon the blood reeking
wolf, and avenge his celestial fathers
death. Thor, the all powerful, would slay,
with his great hammer, the Midgard SER
pent, but even as the monster gave up its
life its venomous breath would wreak
vengeance upon the slayer, and Thor would
sink down, suffocated to death.
Meanwhile Loki and Heimdall have been
seeking each other, and having met, they
would fight with the fury of demons until
both were slain. Thus, all over the bloody
field, gods and giants, good spirits and
evil. would meet and slay each other, and
when the dreadful carnage WAS ended
Surtur would send bis fiery flames abroad
and the universe would be- burned.
The sun would lose it's light; the oartb
would disappear; the stars would fall from
heaven, and time would be no more!-

THE SOUTHERN RAILWAY WILL
NAME THE MAN.
Renorts From Washington Say mat II
Will be Capt. Chas Price,
of SALISBURY.

Cant Chas. Price. of Salisbury, the|
say. is to be Judge Seymour's successor
Cant. Price is TO succeed
him because he is II Southern Railway
attorney. and the Southern kallWay
wants him to have the place.
Mckinley will allow this railroad 70
dictate the appointment. because 1t gave
quarter million dollars to the cam
paign fund that bought his election.
1t is believed, by those who are IN a
position to closely watch the course OF
events, that the matter has already been
settled, and nothing remains but for Nc
KinIey to send Prices nomination to the
Senate. 1t was settled, if settled at all,
when Pritchard and Price, the week be-
fore Inauguration, went to Canton TO
visit the president-elect.
Whether this story be true or not,
one thing is certain, the Southern Rail-
way will not allow Russell or any one
in sympathy with him, to be nominated
and confirmed.

The receipts for cotton on this market
UP to this time this year have been y,
I'll bales. For corresponding period
last year they were only 17,765. This in
crease in receipts is not due to the fact
that the crop last year was larger than
for the previous year, but to the fact that
it matured earlier and has been more
promptly marketed.
There was q general feeling of relief in
Raleigh yesterday when the Legislature
adjourned sine die. Though many of the
Republicans and Populists who composed
