HIRAM WORTH THE OTHER
NORTH CAROLINA RAlLltOAD
DIRECTORS.
TREASURER AND SECRETARY ELECTED
Watons Office Taken and Divided up'Among
the Greedy Horde Of Pie Grabbers-
Two Gaping Mouths Filled
With Sinecures.
With Sinecures.

The North Carolina Railroad directors
met here yesterday and performed sort
of miracle.
They took one good soft snap, with II
$4,000 salary attachment, broke it into
two pieces and satisfied two hungry
mouths.
Though these mouths had been slob
bcring for the whole hunk, when they
got the smaller piece they were content
and went away licking their chops and
smiling contentcdly.
w. ]. Sutton, of Bladen county, got
the larger slice. He was elected treas
urer of the North Carolina Railroad at II
salary of 81 200. while Hiram Worth,
Of Guilford. took what was left-the
position of secretary ut IL salary OF
$500.
Heretofore these offices have been
combined into one. and it was held by
T.. $. Walton, of Morganton. Walton
employed Worth as clerk at Il salary Of
$500. On Walton's death, Worth be-
came candidate for his job. Being
the son Of the State Treasurer, he nat
urally had some backing, and so the
two offices were separated, and he was
given the minor one at salary of $500
in advance of what he had received MS
clerk.
Sutton. the treasurer is brother Of
Judge Sutton, and the same fellow that
some time ago announced he was going
to be made president of the Atlantic
and North Carolina Railroad, and then
wasn't. Also. he is the man who tried
to sell his farm to the State. and when
at his request. two directors of the pen
itentiary went to examine it and, not
liking IT, failed to buy, he charged the
State S44 for their board and the SER
vices of himself and team in showing
them around over the farm.
Sutton's bond is fixed at $4,000 and
Worth's at $4,000. The board will meet
again next Saturday to receive these
bonds. Also ut this meeting the Finance
committee will make its report.
At yesterdays meeting a committee
was appointed to draft resolutions in re-
gard TO the death of the former treas
urer and secretary. +. S Walton.
The lease matter was finally settled
mp. the lawyers being paid and the bal
ance of the money turned over to the
treasurer.

THE CAMP SITE CHANGED.
The Governors Guard Ordered Out Last
Night

The Governors Guard Ordered Out Last
Night.
Owing to the fact that the Rogers.
Crawford property was found to be on
the water shed Of the Insane asylum. the
site of Camp Bryan Grimes was yester-
day morning changed TO the Cameron
property.
The change is for the better. The new
camp ground is Il mile nearer the city,
and on the street car line. There is in il
several hundred acres. The wooded
portion is admirably suited to camping
purposes, and an open field, of 100 acres
near St Mary's school, furnishes the
best possible drill and parade ground.
The only thing lacking in the camp.
TO make it perfect, is water. But it is
so near the city main that this defect
can be remedied at very slight expense.
An An outlay of $3.50. will supply enough
water for $4,000 soldiers.

Messrs. Wiley V. Clifton and Melvin

School That Began Mt Noon.

"The Three RS at Circle City" is
the subject of a paper by Miss Anna
Falconer in the Century. The author
says:
During the short winter days it
would often be noon before all the
children put in an appearance. When
I arrived, at 0 o'clock, it would either
be dark or brilliant moonlight. Smoke
might be seen lazily rising from four
or five cabins out of the four or five
hundred. would light one lamp. and
wait. BY 10 o'clock few children
would straggle sleepily in, just as the
day began to dawn. BY IL o'clock.
shortly after sunrise, the majority Of
the children we're at school, some
coming without their breakfasts. BY
half past twelve all who were coming
that day would have appeared. 1t was
hard to get up before daylight on
those cold, dark mornings. l often
used to wish that / was one of the
little girls, so that too might sleep
until daylight. No one in camp pre-
tended to get up early, unless there
was some special work on hand which
must be done. AS l was going home
to my lunch at noon, friends would
sometimes call out to me: "Good
morning! Come in and have some
breakfast. We have fine moose steak
and hot cakes" On Saturdays and
Sundays lived and slept as did other
people. Even when one did not sit
up later at night than ten or half-past
it required an effort to rise before
daylight. There is something in the
air and in the manner of life which
makes one sleepy. As the days
heightened the children came earlier
to school.

A Big Bee Story,

From California by way of the San
Francisco Call comes an account of
what is believed to be the largest bee
hive in the world, cleft in the face
of cliff
There is no danger of getting very
near this natural beehive without
knowing it, for at all hours of the day
a swarm of insects hover about it for
several hundred feet in all directions,
and an incessant buzz that can be
heard an eighth of a mile fills the air.
But men do venture near after having
first put on a suit of leather clothing,
fastened mask of wire screen around
their hat brims and lighted n big
torch.
1t takes nerve to approach close to
the opening in the rock, and the ex-
perience is memorable. Bees in
Vulnerable light on the intruder. hum
ming fiendishly and endeavoring to
sting him to death. They form per-
feet cloud, and the air is filed with q
fetid smell and fine dust that gets
through the wire screen and causes an
irritation of the eyes.
The insects really show signs of
viciousness, and fly into the flames of
the torch in countless numbers, as if
they intended to extinguish it. Around
and around they fly with deafening
buzz, and strong, indeed, is the man
who can stand their onslaught for
more than few minutes.
1t is almost impossible to make ont
just where the entrance to this ma.
tural beehive is. There is q sort of
cavern in the cliff that seems to have
q crack through the inner wall from
top to bottom, but most of the bees
hover around hole about eighteen
inches wide, and appear to make that
the point of ingress and egress. Many
days it is impossible even to see the
cliff, SO thickly covered is it with the
insects, and they roll in and out OF
the opening like stream of molasses.
During the summer dead birds can
always be seen on the ground around
the mouth Of the hive. They havo
been stung to death while attempting
to fly through the swarm of insects.
Four-footed creatures never venture
within half mile, seeming to know
that death turks there.
