Army and Navy Changes.

Many important changes will occur in
the army and navy during the remaining
months of the present year. These are
due to the natural course of events and
are in no wise the result Of the war with
Spain. Two major generals of the army
and four rear admirals of the navy will
go on the retired list by operation Of law
on account Of age, making vacancies
which will result in promotions all along
the line in both services. The two army
officers who will retire are Major General
William NJ. Graham, now in command of
the Second army corps, in camp at Mid
dletown, Pa, and Major General j. j.
Coppinger, in command of the Fourth
army corps, with headquarters at Hunts
vile, Ala. The rear admirals who retire
this year are Admiral Nj. Sicard, recently
president of the naval war board and now
president of the naval board of promo
tions, who retires the Both inst; Admiral
+. q. Matthews, formerly chief of the
bureau of yards and docks and now pres
ident of the examining and retiring
boards, who retires Oct. q; Admiral 10
seph n. Miller, the ranking officer of the
navy, now in command of the Pacific
station, who retires Nov. %, and Admiral
+. n. Bunce, commandant of the New
York navy yard, who retires Sept. 70.
The principal heroes Of the Spanish war
retire in the following order: Admiral
George Dewey, commanding the Asiatic
station, December, 1899; Admiral w. 5.
Schley, on the Porto Rican evacuation
commission, October, 1901, and Admiral
w. T. Sampson, on the Cuban evacuation
commission February 1902

CONNECTED BY CABLE.

Communication Direct " it'll Gen. Shat.
ter's Headquarters Opened.
The Associated Press dated Province
of Santiago De Cuba, June 30th, says:
Colonel Allen succeeded last night
in connecting this point by cable with
Guantanamo.
This dispatch is sent from the beach
almost Immediately in front of head
quarters of General Shafter.
Ordinary press messages cannot be
accepted before Saturday or Sunday
next. All is quiet here this morning.
PLAYA DEL ESTE, June BOT h e
French cable cut some time ago near
Guantanamo by the United States aux
Hilary cruiser st. Louis, has been re-
paired by the cable boat Adria.
Today connection was established
between General Skaters headquart-
ers at Baiquiri and Guantanamo, the
line being used for government busl-
ness so far.
WAsHINGTON, June 30.-General A.
w. Greedy, chief signal officer, tonight
received a dispatch from Lieutenant
Colonel Allen, chief of signal corps in
Cuba, anr Ouncing that telegraph
and telephone station had been estab-
lishod at point within two miles of
the city of Santiago
This information is of the highest
importance to the officials of the War
Department., as it gives them practi-
cally direct communication with Gen.
Shafter. The information is signifi-
can't, too, as it shows that the Ameri-
can troops are within rifle shot of San
tiago.
The telegraph station being, of
course, within the American lines, it's
location cOnclusively indicates that
that the forces of General Shafter have
established themselves in advance of
the telegraph station.

1t speaks volumes fOr..Paine's celery
compound that of all the many women
who have recovered health by its
means very many were induced to take
it through the persuasion of other
women,-sisters mothers or friends.
When a sick and feeble sufferer is
seen TO gain steadily in health and
vigOr from taking Paine's celery COM
pound no room for doubt is left to the
most stubborn-minded person. This
joyous transformation from sickness
to health Is going on in thousands of
homes this spring.

In the light of occurrences like fhis,
the battle for the cause of the people
would seem desperate, in the face of
such high ard sanity enemies. But
shall we despair? Let US rather have
faith in the Republic, knowing that
God still lives with purpose for the
race. When the army of Hannibal was
encamped outside the gates of Rome,
the land upon which his army rested
was put upon the market inside of the
city; it brought its usual price, be-
cause the Roman people still had con-
fidence in the Republic. When Con-
sui led an army against Hannibal, and
came back j.. defeat, the Roman people
gave him a vote of thanks for his cOur-
age, and for that he had not despaired
of the Republic.
And so the people of North Carolina,
of whatever denomination, or Of none,
will thank Judge Clark for his victori-
Gus and caustic revelation of the pur-
pose of plutocracy, under the catchy
cry of "Christian Education"
"Their one test for all men and
things, from the patriarch to the pre-
feet, seemed to be "Did he or it ad.
vance the cause of the church? which
PhilammOn soon discovered to mean
their own cause, their influence, their
self-glOrification."
why does Orestes truckle to these
circumcised, but because they LEND
money to him and to his creatures? HI

andria, if they would do as much fol

Among those who fell at the battle

This news brought sadness to Raleigh

He was born at the old Shipp home

"He was appointed by Hon. Wal

in 1880. He graduated eleventh in his
class, and was assigned to the Tenth

He made a fine record as an officer
and on good authority it is stated that
no officer stood higher in the army
than Lieutenant Shipp.

Public schools Canuot be Combined With
state schools.
Frequent letters have lately been re-
ceived by the State superintendent of
Public Schools inquiring whether the
public schools could be combined with
church and mission schools. The fol-
lowing letter written yesterday indi-
Gates his views:
REV Charles l.. Graves, PittsbOrO, n.
c.:
DEAR SIR: think the common
school always provide public school
lot and building.
1.-The spirit of all our law seems to
tie against combining church and
State in any way. When the public
school is combined with denOmina-
tional school the best interest of the
public school can rarely if ever be
served.
1--WE cannot have the support of all
The people when the public schools
are united with church schools.
THE public schools are for all the
people, supported by all the people,
and must serve all the people in en-
lightenment without any regard to
churches or to denominations.
"The law provides for combining
public schools with private schools,
but do not think this provision in
any sense means UNCONVENTIONAL or
church schools,
