MILITARY CRICKETER.

Prince Ranjit Sinhji, the great Hin
du cricketer and pet of the colonies,
has been made colonel. He has, says
the Daily Mail, been appointed by the
Mararaiah of Patiala to the honorary
colonenlcy of his bodyguard. When
the Lieutenant Governor of the Pun
iab visited Patiala the other day, the
Maharajah's bodyguard formed the
escort, and at it's head rode Ranjit
Sinhii in full regimentals. A day or
two later the Niceroy of India came to
Patiala and distinguished company
was on the platform to meet Her Maj
esty's representative. Prince Ranjit
Sinhji was there, and this is what he
wore: a gorgeous Oriental costume of
pink with tiara of diamonds, plume
of osprey and diamonds, and a cross
belt of magnificent gems. The car
riage in which the Viceroy of India
drove from the station on this occa-
sion was made of plate silver, with the
state arms in gold. It's value, with the
harness, is stated to be 1880 pounds.

ABOUT WORDS.
The Use of Lady and Woman-Woman
Only With an Adjective.

An exchange says: 1t is, perhaps,
worth noting that some writer's are
rash in asserting that the words lady
and gentleman have passed equally
out of use in 1.-The world" 1t must be
something like half century since
people of education began to say
''man"-the usage is too much a mat
ter of course to need notice. But the
use of the word woman" is altogether
a question of adiectives; but surely
woman is never said without one. Let
any reader interrogate himself and
learn his own customs, and he will find
that it is SO. He is who is foremost to
protest that he never says LADY" in
any possible circumstances will find
that he actually does so whenever he
has no use for an adjective. He met
a pretty woman, but he met lady.
And if he hears that his friend is to
be married, he asks for the lady's
name. How would it sound to say:
And who is the woman?"

FATAL THIRTEEN.
Strange Confirmation of the Popular
Fatality Theory.

Superstitious people will be able,
says an exchange, to gloat with huge
qualification over the confirmation of
the thirteen craze supplied by the case
of passenger on the Mohegan, who
wrote to a friend before starting on
his final voyage: 81 am not supersti-
tious, but if there is any i'll luck about
number 10 | ought to get it this jour
ney, as | have taken No. 10 cabin, and
paid 10 pounds for it," He was drown
ed, not alone, as sceptics may fairly
remind believers. But the fatal num-
Der had not done with him even then.
When his friends went to identify his
body, it lay thirteenth in the row ;and,
the London Daily Mail published the
story on the 18th of the month. 1t is
obvious enough that in every voyage
made by vessel of the Mohegan class,
somebody occupies the thirteenth cab
in and pays l3 pounds for it. 1t may
be pointed out also that whereas in
the Mohegan the man who had the I'M
lucky cabin merely shared the almost
universal doom, the man who had
berth 10 on the Drummond Castle was
the only passenger saved But the
faithful will retort that his case was
the exception proving the rule.

The new residence of General Miles
in Washington, which he occupied for
the first time after his return from
Omaha last October, says Correspond
eat George II. Curtis, was presented
to him by number of his wealthy
admirers, who subscribed $4,000 for
that purpose The movement to pro-
vide him home was inaugurated by
the Massachusetts Society of the
Daughters of the American Revolution
when he first took command of the
army. They appealed to the public
for contributions but made little pro-
gress, and after two years of effort
the matter was taken out of their
hands by u committee of gentlemen
in New York and Chicago who sub
scribed $1,000 each and soon secured
sufficient amount
General Schofield is the only com
mander of the army since the war who
has not received such an honor. Gen

he did not like the location, being in

he sold it and bought another adioin-

street, opposite where the Shoreham
hotel now stands. The property still
belongs to his family, but the house
has been remodeled. The upper floors
are used for flats and the ground floor
for business purposes. After his re-
turn from his journey around the

residence in Iowa circle, but he never
occupied it, having been induced to
settle in New York. After his death

A State institution of Raleigh, n. G.

vice president; Il. S. Jerman, treasurer;
j. \. Holding, attorney, George Allen
secretary and manager. w. s. Primrose
and G. G. Latta, all of whom are direc-
tors.
This is one of the best managed and
most prosperous investment and loan
companies IN the State.
The investment plan assures the mem
bers the return of all payments, togeth-
er with a profit of fifty per cent in loo
months. The payment of 2 cents per
day, which is 65 cents per month, for
100 months, natures one share Of 500.
The loaning plan guarantees the re-
turn to the borrower of all his payments
less three per cent per annum ON the
amount advanced to him. Both the
investing and borrowing members are
fully protected by the guarantee fund,
which promises and agrees to mature the
stock, making the monthly payments for
the wldow should death occur. This Sc
cures the home to the family without
further cost after death. For full par

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Aug. 2S.-There was
marked falling off in interest in railroad
stocks today compared with that pre-
vailing last week. Interest shifted into
the Industrial Specialties and a number
of these were marked up in a feverish
and irregular manner. The general list
was maintained with difficulty, and a
slight furry in call money in the last
hour carried prices with the few ex-
ceptionaI cases of strength, below last
nights level In the final hardening
movement on covering by shorts, some
OF the Specialties and "a few obscure
railroad stocks rose anew to the top
level This made the closing of the
market firm in tone, but the majority of
standard stocks show net losses. An
influential factor in the hesitating and
doubtful tone of speculation, was the
renewed anxiety over the money mark
ct outlook, caused by Saturdays bank
statement. Call money was quite stiffiy
held at 3 per cent. all day and was mark
ed above that in the last hour, possibly
not without manipulation. But the fact
remains that the present low stage of
surplus reserves Of the New York clear
ing house banks keeps the financial
world keenly observant and IN some
whot uneasy frame Of mind. Profess
