equaled in the history of kingly
hospitality. lie was received every

time and az the foremost living
American. Hon. John Russell
Young, who accompanied General
Grant throughout the famous Jour

Ladies Home Journal, us conspic-
uous Incidents: the receptions, din

or Of the illustrious American. IL
IL said that Mr.. Young brings to
light a fact that has received but
passing attention: that General
Grant was instrumental in arrang.
ing the terms of treaty of peace
between China and Japan, which
prevented an outbreak Of war be-
tween those two nations.

THE LARGEST CIRCULATION OF ANY NORTH CAROLINA DAILY PAPER

A despatch from pharsalos via Larlssa,
says:
During Wednesdays battle our losses
were not heavy, but it is impossible to
eXaggerate the strategic and normal i,I-
portance Of the Turkish victory. Our sol
;liers are hunting for umbrellas which are
almost a military necessity, the sun is 50
broiling hot"
1t appears that the Greeks intended 10
resist to the uttermost On the platform
1T the Railway station were barricades Of
turf and forage and the houses had been
strengthened by heaps of turf and were
loop-holed for rifles.
The coOlness of the Turks are extra
ordinary. Three soldiers stood together
in advance Of their comrades, on a path
crossing a meadow, while whole bat
talon of Greefls fired at them. They did
not condescend to stop or lie down but fir
ed away cOolly until their skirmishers
came to their help.
The stOicism of the wounded is equal
ly admirable. One young fellow, an
Almanian, with ball in his foot and
even then under fire, stood calmly and
smilingly discussing with companion
the best way of retiring. Another, with
wounded hand, slept all night without
troubling to get the wound dressed. The
courage and physical force of the Turkish
soldier are prodigious. Many Of them
fought on Wednesday from dawn until
seven in the evening without the least
distress.

High School Notes.

Through the kindness of the trustees
and librarian of the Scott library, the
American history class has a large num-
Der of volumes oD the subject at their
disposal for reference reading. This
makes it possible to pursue the study by
the topical method, the outlines being
made out by the instructor a week in
advance.
The first year literature class is read
ing some of Irving's essays with Mr..
Hambrecht. The second wear class is
at work with selections from Charles
Dudley Warner, and the juniors are
reading selected essays of Lord Racon's.
The work Of these classes is under Miss
Lindsay's charge.
The advanced class in German have
their work arranged so that German
composition comes twice a week, on
Tuesday and Thursday, and the reading
in SchiIIer's "Die Jungfrau Won Or
leans on the remaining days.
Both the junior and senior classes are
completing their class organizations.
There are fifteen candidates for gradua-
ton this year and the junior class num-
bers eighteen at present.
The matter of a school paper is being
discussed by those who want to see the
school up with the other high schools
of the state.
The Forum is adopting a new const1-
tuition and bylaws.
-Four excellent volumes were added
to the school library this week.

Claims Against the George HiIes
Estate.

The executors and eXecutriX of the
estate of George Hiles yesterday filed
three objections to claims against
the estate. The objectors are James K.
P. H1les, Franklin p Hiles, Phoebe A.
Hiles and Benjamin Skidmore, Jr., and
L. Gates, the international Land
company and G. O. Baker.
The objection to the claim Of James
/. Gates states that in 1883 he sold
250,0O0 acres of Florida lands, in
Liberty county, to George Hiles with
the agreement that he would settle
law suit then pending against the lands.
John A Graham of Florida was the
plaintiff in the suit, and he secured
judgment for so, 900 against Mr.. Gates.
A suit is now pending in the local
United States court by which L'Engle,
assignee of the Judgment, is endeavor-
ing to secure a judgment, with costs, on
the decree of the Florida county court.
Mr.. Gates is defending the suit and has
fled a contingent claim against the
estate. The executors allege that Mr..
Gates should pay the judgment when it
is decreed.
The claim of the International Land
company is based on sale Of 295,0 900
acres of Florida lands, also in Liberty
county.
The company bought the land from
George Hiles under a guarantee of
perfect title. The Land company
alleges defective title and demands Il
refund of the $4,000 paid to Mr.. Hiles.
The executors deny all statements and
allegations in the claim.
The claim of G. O. Baker is for
services rendered under an implied
contract, which the executors repudiate.

Farm Dwelling Burned.

The large, twelve-room farm residence
of Mrs. Ole Nalwick in the town of SEN
eca, about two miles from Hansen.
burned 10 the ground, Sunday forenoon,
Jan. 81. Fire originated and is thought
to have caught in the kitchen chimney
from defective construction. The house
was occupied by the widow of Ole Nat
wick with her two daughters and one
son. Happening on a Sabbath day,
neighbOring farmers were all ut their
homes and responded at once to the
sound of alarm, assisting in saving most
of the furniture and house effects on
the ground floors. Clothing, bedding,
and all property in the upper rooms
were destroyed in the flames. An III
surance of 5000 was carried on the
house and $3.50 on the furnishings
This place was considered ore of the
finest and most commodious in that
locality. 1t was remodeled and very
materially repaired less than two years
ago, giving Mrs. Natwick II most con-
venient and comfortable home, hence
the recent loss is a severe one. The
building cost 81 800. The family has
moved into the farm house of Mr.. Il. A.
Havenor near by, where they will live
the balance Of the winter. Mrs. Ole
Natwick is tie mother of our Centralia
furniture dealers, Messrs. J. w. and
Henry Natwick.

Tariff Ref orm No More.

I have discovered that the farmer al
wavs gets better prices when lot of
buyers are hunting him up rather than
when he is hunting up BUYERS
WILLIAM MCKINLEY.
The farmer has discovered this too,
now. He has discovered, also, that un-
der Free-Trade he may hunt and hunt
for buyers and yet find none. He has
realized in Il very practical way that his
prosperity depends utterly on his home
market, and that his home market de-
penCs on the employment Of the wage
earners, which is secured by Protective
Tariff. 1t was very pleasant to listen to
the FreeTraders when they told him
that under Free-Trade be would supply
the world with agricultural products.
1t has not been so pleasant to find that
the world did not want his products,
and that those who had been his
customers at home, being without work
and without money because of Free
Trade, were no longer able 10 buy from
him. But this is what he has found out
under partial Frec-Trade. There's Il
GUIDE time coming" though.
