remarked-1 think the Southern will
probably do us right, as Col. Andrew We
says, but Greensboro is q place Of too
much commercial Importance to allow
one road to monopolizs all the business
and it will only be a short time before
the Norfolk and Western will be in
here. 1t is only twenty six milesfrom
us now-Madison-and it is a small
matter to reach u.s."
Mr.. G. W. Lawrance of Fayetteville
informs The Progressive Farmer that
though the strawberry crop this year
was large, the price fell speedily, and
the business was hardly profitable this
season. A K9nansville correspondent
Of an exchange says: This has been a
hard year for truckers in this county,
and very few Of them have paid ex
penses. There was an enormous crop
of strawberries. The bulk of the ship
ments came in the midsts Of rain and
hail storms, and the berries reached
the market in bad condition, and low
prices resulted. There is also much
complaint against the railway and re
~frigerator service. There is no longer
any doubt that too many berries are
being raised. There is a large buckle.
berry crop in Duplin and Sampson and
some who lost on strawberries look to
the huckleberry crop to save them.
Speaking of the Methodist Orphan,
age to be established at R Aleigh, The
Christian Advocate says: LIT all now
get to work for the Otphansge. The
location has been selected and donated
by the city of Raleigh. The deed has
been drawn. The money to begin the
work is at hand. The public and the
widows, euperannuated preachers and
orphans of North Carolina are watch
ing to see what North Carolina Meth
odism is going to do with u new en-
~terprise. We know enough to be able
to say in all confidence that they are
not going to be disappointed. Time
will bring many changes and surprises
In years to come when we shall have
an orphanage equipped with spe ciouE
buildings, and a large endowment
sheltering hundreds of the fatherleel
and m~otherless, and fording a home
for the superannuated preachers anc
their wives, the generations viii
wonder why we we're without such al
institution so long.
And now Asheville wants an Ostrich
farm. A. M Pearson has been inter
viewed by the Citizen and Gays: 81
is possible that we may start here al
ostrich farm similar to our acksonvill
farm-that is, an ostrich farm, pheas
! antry and apiary. We have just i'm
ported from India, China and othe
!, foreign countries all kinds Of the hand
} some plumage pheasants, togethe
with q collection of pretty birds, sue
as the snowy aigrette, the bird tha
furnishes the beautiful aigrette g
much admired by the ladies, Chimes
ducks, Egyptian geese, black swan
famingoes, pelicsns, great herons, etc
1t is not definitely decided that we wi
locate here as yet, but should we d.
eide to do 30 it will be determed in
few days. II we locate here we wi
probably spend the remainder of on
time in Asheville and build a HON
4, here, which would necessarily be in
park of several acres in order to al
commodate our business interests"

SCHLEY WILL BE PLEASED.
Hho Naval Hero OF Santiago VIII be As.
signed to Command tho South
Atlantic Squadron.

Washington, Sept. l5.-Somo time
ago Admiral Schcloy applied to tho
navy department for sen service. At
present he is head of tho rotiring
board. The navy department has
now granted the request, and has
notified him to hold himself in read
mess for sea. Ho has boon assigned
to command tho South Atlantic sta
ton, and tho department is about TO
tako stops to mako tho command
commensurate with his rank by in
creasing considerably tho number
of vessels on tho station. Tho Gin
cnnatti will probably go thore; tho
Detroit is already Oh her way to join,
and tho Marblehend is likely to bo
attached. Altogether there will bo
about five or six ships on the station
when tho quota is filled. 1t is said
at the department that with throat
cncd war in Sonth Africa, which is
part OF the station, anI the disturbed
conditions in South and Central
America, the South Atlantic com
mand is likely to become an import
ant ono in the service in tho noar fu-
tuIc.
