1t takes all kinds of queer charact-
ers to make up a community. When
Mrs. Savage discovered the fire in her
kitchen on Saturday evening a week,
she ran to the front door and seeing a
man across the street, she called to him
come over and assist her in putting it
out Instead, however, he paid no
attention to her and ran out to Main
street Here he stopped and began
crying FIRE. in loud voice. This
was his idea Of helping to extinguish
the fire, instead of throwing water on
it.
We want you to come and rest
your wistful eye upon our beautiful

Island, together with Mr.. j. w. Eth
ridge. of Roanoke Island. n c., estab-
lished a factory at Oregon Inlet, about
1870. 1t was in operation, however,
only two years. The factory was de-
pendent for its supply Of fish ON the
ocean fishing. and the strong current at
the inlet interfercd so seriously with
the vessels passing in and out that the
business was found to be Improbable.
THE next factory was built at the
mouth of the Cape Fear river by the
Navassa Oil and Guano Company, of
Wilmington. The object of the company
was to supply their factory with fish
scrap to be used in the manufacture
of fertilizers. The mill was well equip
ped. But the scarcity of fish, and the
limited amount Of oil which they yielded.
was such that after two seasons the
business was discontinued with loss
of about $4,000. Later the company
again attempted the enterprise, and this
time located their factory on Harker' S
Island, but this also seems to have re-
suited in Il failure, for it it was abandon
ed after the second season
THE next attempt in this direction in
North Carolina, was by Mr.. G. Il. Dey,
of the firm of Dey Brothers, of High
lands, n. j. He first built Il factory at
Portsmouth, but not meeting there with
the success anticipated, moved ii i'll
1881 to the present site at LenOXvile,
three miles cast of Beaufort. The fac
tory at LenoXville was eminently sue
cessful. and perhaps to this fact is due
the establishment of other factories,
which have later been built i'll the
State.
There are now eight Menhaden scrap
and oil factories in operation in North
Carolina. All of these are located in
Carteret county, in easy reach OF faciIi-
ties for transportation.
''The Menhadcn or fat backs first
make their appearance along our coast
in April. From this until the first of
June they are met with in large num-
bers as they are passing northward in
their spring migration. In October they
again become numerous, as they re-
turn leisurely on their movement to-
wards the South, and often do not depart
for the winter until late in December.
They move in schools, often numbering
hundreds of thousands of individuals.
Their pathway of travel is close along
the shore, never extending many miles
out to sea.
For number of years the Menhaden,
in their Northern movement, have been
gradually failing to reach as high a lati-
tude as in previous years, thus necessi-
tating the closing of a number of fac
tories in the more northern States, and
decreasing the total of amount of out
put. The number of fish has also been
decreasing steadily in these regions
where they have been so continually
caught in large numbers. On the whole
however, the North Carolina fisheries
have not suffered extensively. and the
effect of the decrease in the North may
serve TO keep up the prices of the pro-
duct in this State"

KIDD'S FIRST PIRACY.
From ST. Nicholas.

From St Nicholas
Kidd waited n good while FOR the Mocha feet but
IL did not arrive and then he made his first ven
turc I'm actual piracy. He ovorhaued a Moorish
boldly brok" the marine laws which governed the
civilized world and stamped himself an out-and-
out pirate After the exercise of considerable
cruelty he extortcd from his first prize Il small

appettes for more and Kidd cruised savagely
over the Eastern seas In search OF other spoils.
one OF the men, a gunner named william Moore
dry became impairment because Kidd ala not
attack an English vessel and he and Captain Kidd
had a violent quarrel. In the course OF which the
CAPTAIN picked up heavy iron-bound bucket and
struck the dissatisfied gunner such powerful
blow that the man died next day
Kidd now ravaged the East India waters with
n very fine ship from Armenia called the Quedah
Merchant, commanded by an Englishman. Kids
conscience had been growing harder and harder
every day. and he did not now hesitate TO attack
any vessel The great merchantmen proved TO be
one OF the most valuable prizes ever taken by n
pirate for kidd's share OF the spells amounted
10 more than $4,000. This was such grand haul
that Kidd lost time In taking his prize TO some
place where he might safely dispose OF her cargo
and get rid OF her passengers. Accordingly he
in with the first pirate vessel he had met since he
had started out TO put down piracy. This was
ship commanded by an English pirate named Guilt
ford: and here would have been chance for Cap
tain Kidd to show that. although he might trans
gross the law himself. he would be true TO his
engagement not TO allow other people to do so: but
ne had no idea OF putting down piracy, and instead
OF experimenting culiford he went into partner
ship with him and the two agreed to 20 pirating
together. - a., -,
