familiar with hardships. There were
swarthy, black-eyed girls with shawls
pinned over their heads, and boys with
toes peeping out of their ragged shoes.
Presently new arrival appeared, lead
ing by the hand two children, little
more forlorn in appearance than them
selves. One had sore eyes and was
apparently half blind.

They sleep in a box and they hain't

Lets take collection" some one
suggested, and there was a general
murmur Of approval.
A ragged cap was produced and
passed around. Grimy hands plunged
into the recesses of tattered garments
for pennies, and the collector an
nounced the result, "seven cents" A
committee, large one, was appointed
to go to the nearest bakery and invest
the funds. Some small cakes were
bought which were thrust into the
hands Of the children and they were
hidden to eat. When the teacher ar

much satisfaction the case was turned

About q Bandit Fish.

In the rivers and lakes of New York
state there is bandit fish that roams
at large and makes its living by rob-
bling the gentlemen fish. 1t even at
tacks such vigorous fish as the black
bass and the pickerel, fastening itself
to them and sucking their blood until
they are dead. The name of this bold
bandit is the lamprey. Prof. Gage OF
Cornell University has seen 10000 OF
these lampreys spawning at one time,
in the outlet Of Cayuga lake alone,
and he has estimated that they kill
more fish than all Of the fishermen OF
the state put together. The lamprey
is about the size and has somewhat
the appearance Of an eel. Prof. Gage
advises some means Of killing them by
means Of traps in the stream as they
60 up In the spring to spawn.

LATEST Animal in the World.

In the deep forests along the ANA
zon river in South America there
dwells one Of the oldest and LATEST
creatures in the world. 1t walks up
side down; it rarely, if ever, drinks
and 1t is said to feel no pain. The
animal is known as the al, from its
peculiar piping cry, or the three-toed
sloth. The last name is very appro-
PIRATE, for a lazier animal never lived.
Often it takes less than fifty steps a
day, and it will be month or more
in going a mile. 1t is not necessary
for 1t to go any faster. because it lives

in the trees and its food of leaves and
soft twigs is always within easy reach.
Sloths have three toes on each foot,
and each toe bears a strong hooked
claw. When the sloth moves he SIM
ply hooks the claws over a limb and
crawls about from tree to tree. In this
position he can sleep hours at time.
When a little sloth is born it uses its
mother for a hammock until it is big
enough to climb for itself.
The sloth grows to be about two feet
long. It's hair is wiry and coarse and
it has no tail to speak of. The natives
say that it canrot feel pain, and they
prove what they say by showing how
the sloth will roll itself up and DELHI
erately fall out of tall tree in order
to save climbing down. Pretty lazy,
isn't it? An uglier, more useless ami
NAL could not we'll be imagined.

PoPULIST POLITICS.
Steam Mill Destroyed by Fire--Roxboro
Moving to Secure Water Works.

Roxboro, N. c., Oct. S.-(SpeciaD-A
preliminary move was made this week
on the chess board of Person county
politics by the Populists. A few of
these met to view the situation over.
Nothing of Importance transpired and
the meeting adjourned till the LIST Mon
day in November at which date it is
proposed to have Senator Butler meet
with them and deliver an address to the
public. The Populist party in this coun-
ty in the last campaign heartily cooper
ated with the Democrats. 1t is believed
that this cooperation will continue In
the next campaign, IL the party Popu-
l:sO keep up its organization. Most Of
the Populists in this county are men
of high merit, and will not tolerate ne
gro domination and Republican misrule.
The steam mill of NJ NJ. Tapp, sit
uated in the suburban parts of our town
was destroyed by fire on Sunday morn
ing about 3 o'clock. The loss is esti-
mated at $1,000. No insurance ON the
building or contents. Several hundred
bushels of grain were consumed by the
flames. This loss by fire emphasizes
Roxboro's need of some method of COM
batting the flames.
A large quantity of piping has been
bought by our town commissioners pre-
paratory to the construction of the town
water works system. This piping has
been distributed along Main street, but
here the work has ceased, for the pre-
sent. The reason for this is ON legal
grounds. The town commissioners ex-
pected to contract a debt of about FIVE
thousand dollars in the construction of
the water system. Legal advice was
given the board that unless the question
was submitted to the voters Of the town,
and approved by majority of them that
no taxes could be collected to pay said
debt, unless the courts should decide
that water works are necessity to a
town. A large mass meeting of the citi-
zens win be held this afternoon to con-
slider the question. Some feasible plan
will be adopted for our people are too
patriotic and enterprising to stumble
at five thousand dollar proposition
II no other means can be devised we
