Convict labor is wanted on two roads,
it is said; the one from Selma north
eastward, and the one from Lumber

Twenty-one niles ofthe Cape Fear 4
Northern Railroad are ready for use.
Five hundred men are at work, includ-
ing those saving ties. The road runs
to Winslow, four miles into Harnett
county.
It has been many years since the wa
ters of Eastern North Carolina have
been so full of behring's. The first part
of the season was poor but latterly the
catch has been immense.
The North Carolina corporation COM
mittee will under the new law have
the appointment of two or three state
bsnk examiners. just how many has
not yet been decided, nor when they
will be appointed. It has been Gus.
tomary to have two examiners and they
generally make one examination a year
of all banks and such special examina-
tions as may be found necessary.
Two moonshine stills were cut up in
Johnston county last week, but none

The German Emperor is much more
sensitive to caricature than his ances-
tor, the Great Frederick. upon whom 1t
is understood that he models himself.
That famous King, despot though he
was, would never nave prohibited
Veber's pictures, which have SO tor
mented Kaiser William. On the con-
trary, we fancy Frederick would rath-
er have invited him to sup at the pal
ace. and then have scoffed and gibed
at him. 1t is Macaulay who describes
how, on one occasion. he saw crowd
staring at something on the walls. He
rode up and found that the object OF

Ihe Kansas captain in charge there
escorted them to General Wheaton, g
headquarters, where they were provided
with horses and sent to the headouar-
ters OF General Macarthur. The latter
invited the Filipinos to sit down at
lunch him, and conversed with them
for some time. He refused, however,
to speak au.horitativoly on the sub biect
OF their errand, referring all inquiries
to General Otis. The FilIpinos were
then escorted by General Maloney, OF
General MacArthnr's staff, to Manila,
reaching this place ut o'clock p. m.
Gen. Otis aide, Lieutenant Sladen,
was awaiting their arrival at the depot
with a carriage, in which they were
driven to the palace entrance
The Filipino cfficors attracted much
| attention. They wero dressed in
uniforms of checked blue and white
cloth. and wore straw hats. They car
ried no side arms. They were escorted
directly to the Office of General Otis,
Jacob j. Schurman, president of the
Philippine commission, and Hon. Chas
DENLY, member of the commission,
soon joined the party there. The news
of the arrival of Filipino officers under
flag of truce spread through the city
rapidly and many officers gravitated
to the corridors of the palace. while q

opposite. At o'clock two of the Filipino
officers escorted by Lieutenant Slader
and Major Malloney, left the palace.
They did not look at all elated as q rs-
suit of their talk with General Otis
and the members of the Philippine
commission.
Aguinaldo is evidently selecting tht
army as cloak for his Congress, hop
ing by subterfuge to overcome Genera
Otis consistent policy of ignoring th'
Filinino government The Filipino
argument is that it is impossible to ar
range an armistice without the sane
tion Of the Congress. General Ot
punctured this assumption by remark
ing that if Aguinaldo could make wa
without Congress he could stop it with
out resernce to that body.
While the insurgents are undoubted
ly tired of war the leaders are tor
with dissentions. There is a suspicion
that it was hoped by means of a con
ference to ascertain what terms the
could expect. II they saw that any
thing is to be gained by continuing til
war, an armistlcs would afford them a
opportunity for recuperatinS their dc
moralized forces. 1tis nm iDterestin
commentary upon Aguinaldo's schem
that only 80 of the 800 members of th
Filipino Congress have taken the oat
