jority In my opinion, this is the situation all over the country; every body is lined up for action s.nd hoping the scrap will not be much To- ger de- layed."
 "The leading labor organization Of Cleveland voted down resolution in dorsing the McBroom bill to legalize Sunday base ball. said MT. R. w. Daily of that Ohio city, at the Raleigh.
 ''This action was not taken for re- Iigious considerations, but for ether practical reasons. These labor repre- sentatives understood full well that every successful inroad on the Ameri- can Sabbath is detrimental to bread winners. If the European Sunday ever obtains in this land, it will be the be- ginning of worse times for all who earn living by hard work. Sunday labor is now the exception in the United States, but such legislation as that contained in the bill to make base ball legal on the Lords day is the opening wedge that will destroy its peculiar character as a day of rest Laboring men are wise to oppose any such proposition.

SHIPPING FISH ALIVE.
A New and Simple Danish Method for
Delivering Finny Food
Far Inland.

A new method of transportation for
live fish from seaports into the interior
has just been patented by Danish fish
dealer of Copenhagen, and the system
is so simple and yet so perfect that one
wonders why it has never been thought
of before, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord. The inventor had number of
large bags made of waterproof mate
rial, strong oilcloth appearing to give
the best results. These bags, after be-
ing filled with water and the fish to be
sent inland, are laced at the top and
either suspended in the cars from hooks
in the roof of the car or from folding
frames taking almost no space and al
lowing the close hanging of these bags,
so that there is but little movement be-
tween the bags. They may also be set
upright alongside each other, but sus-
pension has been found to be prefer
able, particularly for long distances.
Several transports of fish made over
long distances have shown the splendid
features Of the new system. for the fish
arrived in excellent condition after a
16-horr ride.

AN ELECTRIC PRANK.
LtHh thing Cuts Up High JiuEs on q
Mountain Side in North
Carolina

a climb to the top of big Craggy."
along the banks of the Big Tree creek,
affords many bits of picturesque seen
cry. as well ns view of surprising
grandeur from the summit. party of
gentlemen from Asheville, who recently
visited this majestic old mountain, that
rears its head more than 5000 feet
above sea level, report an unusual man.
lfestation of the pranks of electricity
says the Asheville (N. C.) Citizen.
Along the top of the ridge for dis
tance of perhaps rs or so yards there
was deep furrow, as if made by a
large plow. AS the current passed along
large pieces of turf were thrown aside,
tough rhododepdron bushes were torn
up by the roots and hurled to one side,
while huge powders that lay in the
pathway were split in twain and in some
instances shivered to atoms.
After the current had passed along
the surface of the mountain, or top
most ridges, for so or 60 yards, it APP
pears to have divided, one fork going
down the mountain side and the other
continuing on the ridge for some IS or
30 feet, and then disappearing entirely.
The strange feature of this electrical
phenomenon is that the charge did not
at once disappear by taking down
ward direction into the earth instead OF
remaining for so great distance on
the surface.

EDUCATING A GREYHOUND.
In His Training He Must Walk from
Twelve TO Fifteen Miles
Every Day.

The right way TO bring greyhound
into condition is TO walk him steadily
every day from ~ to Is miles. He must
not be allowed to potter along the road
in his own sweet way, but should be led
by the trainer. The reason is that con-
tinual exercise is thus given, and this
without tiring the dog! When he comes
In from his walk the greyhound is
brushed and groomed. When the grey
hound Is at exercise he wears thick
sheet" this is exchanged for one of
thinner quality when he is at home,
Gays an exchange.
The walking exercise alone is not suf-
fcient, however, Every. other day the
greyhound isgaIloped. and this is done
in the following manner: A kennel
man holds the, dogs. The trainer walks
away for nearly half mile. At given
signal the kennel man releases one OF
the dogs, who naturally gallops toward
the trainer. When the dog has got
away about 20 yards another dog is re-
leased, and so the process goes on until
al the dogs are running toward the
trainer at distance of about 90 yards
from each ether. If;the dogs were al
lowed to run together they would either
play or fight with each other, and the
leading dog must be very good one al
gal!oping or the gauop will be spoilt.

WOMEN OF THE NAVY.
oGicers' wives and Families Feel
the Suspense Most ISeeniy--Wnit-
ing and Hoping.

The women who have experienced the
most mental sufferings and strain re-
sulting from the omplications in Cuba
are the wives and families of the officers
Of the navy. Few of the enlisted men
are married and most of them are with
out home ties, but the contrary is true
of the officers.
This is a sad time for u.s." said the
wife of a famous naval officer few
lays ago. "All we can do is to wait and
hope. None of the women of the navy
wants war. Its opportunities for pro-
motion and the winning of glory do not
compensate for the terrible suspense
and anxiety which we have TO endure.
Three of my family are in the navy,
and my earnest desire is TO hear news
of peace, although l am trying TO be
prepared for whatever happens"
While her husband is looking for or
ders from Washington she and her chill
dren await the issue Of events in the
little New Jersey town which is their
present home. This is the attitude of
all the women whose fathers, brothers,
husbands or lovers are in the navy.
Their interest in the chances of war is
more keen ard personal than that of
any other class of people, for war with
Spain means naval action. Those who
are with the southern squadron are in
especial danger. Ever since the blow
ing up of the Maine and the subsequent
nobiiizing of the feet in southern
waters the crying of every war extra"
on the street. the receipt of every letter
and telegram and the circulation of
each new rumor of conflict have caused
quickened tension in officers families.
The suspense which the whole nation
has found it hard to endure has been
| most cruel for them.

a paper pertaining to local improve

THE 1NvINctBLE ARMADA.
some Historical Points About spain's
Formidable Hat storin-Wrecked
Fleet.

A correspondent of the New York
I'ress recalls the history of the 'In-
yincible Armada" which sailed from
Lisbon, Spain, against England in 1888.
That fleet was composed of 129 large
vessels, carrying 1926 soldiers, S.460
sailors and about 1000 slaves as rowers.
1t was "a most formidable feet, one .of
the most formidable fleets of the time.
A storm in Spanish waters destroyed
several vessels of the "Invincible Ar
mada'' and the rest put into port for
repairs. When everything was in readi-
ness again the feet started and en-
tered the English channel, sailing along
in the form of half moon, nearly
seven miles broad. They were met by
the English feet, consisting of 30 ships,
which had been increased by the nddi-
ton of merchantmen dprivateers TO
about $50 vessels. under Lord Howard,
of Effingham, Drake and others.
They fought. And it soon appeared
that the great Armada was anything
bur "invincib!e." for Drake sent eight
blazing freships into the midst of the
Spanish fleet. In terrible CONSERVATION
the Spaniards tried TO get out to sea-
and so became dispersed. The English
pursued, storm came on and drove the
Spanish vessels among the rocks and
shoals. The "invinvible" fleet, with q
loss of 30 great ships and 10000 men
defeated and disgraced, sailed home
again.

ROCKLAND.

Last week was busy week with
farmers, planting corn and preparing
the land for the crop: On the river
where the lands were under the high
water it required extra work, as the
drying wind which prevailed had TAX
en- all the moisture out of the ground,
making it hard to plough and get into
good condition. The best farm imple-
ment now used for pulveriz;ng the
ground is the disc harrow. A few
days of warm weather will soon bring
the corn mp. The acreage will be
larger than usual, owing to the ad-
vance in prices for the grain; also the
advance in price for stock that is being
fitted for the market. 1t is to be hoped
that prices will be we'll sustained, as
good prices for farm products make
cheerful farmers. The outlook for a
good crop of wheat is encouraging;
where the crop was well planted 1t
looks fine. The larger portion of the
crop was planted upon corn land, ow-
ing to the excessive drouth last year
which continued into the late fall.
The winter was very favorable as
there was but little freezing and thaw-
ing during the months of January,
February and March. 1t is generally
considered necessary for a good crop
of wheat to have it covered with snow.

Formation of Gold Nuggets.

Concerning the theory that gold mug
gets are formed by the depositing Of
the gold around nucleus from solu-
ton, rrof. a. Liversidge, the gold ex-
pert OF New South Wales, Australia,
has made investigations which he
thinks disprove it. By slicing the mug
get and examining the cross sections
obtained he found no traces of con-
centric coatings,. but that the gold was
always more or less .crystallized, the
crystals being in some cases very large
and with welldefned boundaries.
Some of the nuggets also showed casi-
ties and Enclosures of quartz. although
in many cases none were visible on. the
rolled surface OF the nugget.

BY ACCLAMATION.

The Congressional Convention Nominates
the Only Man Before 1t.
AS was predicted IN Tuesdays paper
the nomination of Mr.. VanVoorhis for
Congress was made by acclamation.
The convention had in it no element
of especial excitement, as any opposl-
tion to Mr.. VanVoorhis had disap-
peared on the retirement of Col. Riley,
of this county.
To Washington county belongs the
honor of the presentation Of the mo-
ton to make the nomination OF Mr..
VanVoorhis unanimous by acclama-
tion. Capt George Lauer made the
motion, and at 10 o'clock the deed was
done
Only one session was held-there be-
ing no adjournment for dinner.
Captain Lauer was elected by the
Washington county delegates to sue
ceed himself as Congressional Com.
mitteeman.
The nomination, while not being one
that was along the idea of Washing
ton county's vote, as expressed at the
primaries last Saturday, is such an one
as she can and will bring forceful
and telling support at the polls in No
vember when the common enemy mus'
surely suffer defeat.
We can assure Mr.. VanVoorhis Wash
;nrton will come nm with a solid front
He will have no better support from
any part Of his district than we will
cyiva him
