GOODBYE DON.
Spain Takes a Farewell Of the
Western WorN.
Formal Transfer OF Cuba to the
United States on JAM
lary 1.


Havana. January 2 After 800
years Spain has surrendered CON
troll of Cuba. and the red and yellow
dag is at last removed from all the
West. The. stars and Stripes now
wave over Havana, fromthe palace,
from stern MORO Castle, from grim
Cabanas fortress and from all other
public buildings. The ceremonies
incident to the transfer q theisIand
from Spanish to American control
were carried out according to pro-
gramme aud without a hitch. Tear
fully Capt. Gen.. Castellanos bade
adieu to his comrades; feryently he
grasped the hands Of his former
enemy, the Cuban, and cordially
shook the hand Of his victor, the
American. Thus did Spain pass
from the New World; thus did the
United States mark the end IF an
other victorious war.
Nine Cuban Generals went with
the Americans to do honor at the
palace, to show their appreciation
of the kindly officers of the United
States in lifting from their fertile
island the hand of oppression, and
to give assurance of their belief
that the military control of Cuba by
the United States pointed thesurest
and quickest way to the govern
ment Of the Gem of the Antilles by
her own people.
On the stroke of noon Sunday, to
The strains Of the Spanish ROYAL
March by an American band, down
came the flag of Spain. Directly
afterwards, at 1904 O'Clock. up
went the Stars and Stripes to the
music of the Star SpangIed Ban
ner, and on the birth of a new
year came to Cuba ITS frst breath
IF freedom.
Directly after the cere Monies
Capt. Gen. Castellanos left the pal.
ace, and, escorted by Americans,
embarked for Matanzas, leaving
Maj. Gen. Brooke Governor Of all
Cuba.
AT a reception IN the palace sa-
Don after the official ceremonies,
many cubans and Spaniards who
intend to remain in Cuba paid their
respects to Gen. Brooke and prom
sed allegiance to the United States.
rhe Cuban Generals present as
sured the United States Military
Governor that they would do every
hing in their power to help restore
he island to condition Of peace
and prosperity.

~ Vice Presi-
dent Bassett raped the Baldhead-
ed Club to order.
After long recess, caused first
by the war and later by the matri-
monial epidemic that came on with
the cold weather and made it un-
safe for an unmarried man to take
his heart outdoors with him, the
club had come together to hold the
always important annual meeting.
Even after the gavel fell, the be:
lated members continued to crowd
in, several OF them bringing with
them new members who hoped to be
admitted without the usual delay.
AS the weather was Indictment
and it seemed cruel to send the
candidates, our, the admission of new
members was taken up the first
thing.
Col. Lem Mckee proposed for
membership, Mr.. John Chappel1,
Col. Buck Leavell brought in the
petition Of Mr.. George f. Campbell
and several other names were pre-
scnted and all of the petitions acted
upon without the usual course of re-
ferring them to committees. The
applicants were all required to
take their heads to the Secretary S
table for examination, and while
they we're being examined for hair
the applicants we're given chairs
in row, Mr.. Campbell being given
two chairs out of compliment to his
well-known views on the popular
question of expansion.
All of the gentlemen were adj
mitted and given the grip (Which
happened to be no new thing to
some of them) and after they were
instructed in the secret work, Col.
Buck Leayell obtained the floor
and congratulated the club on the
addition of the new members, add
ing that he had examined his listof
Extra Drys' and found none of the
new brethren were omit. This state
ment was followed by loud applause.
While the applause was at its
height Col Gus Breathitt en-
tered, fresh from camp in Georgia,
where he had been mustered out.
The genial veteran mistook the
applause for an ovation and bowed
his thanks and began to make a
speech. Then for the first time the
colonies realized that returned
hero was in their midst and all de-
corun was disregarded and a
grand rush was made by all his
friends tt, shake the hero's hand
and congratulate him on his escape
from the perils of ''embalmed beef
and the Establishments of army
AS soon as order could be re-
stored Col. Tom Williams moved
that an open session be held ait the
next meeting in order that Col.
Breathitt might hold Hobson re-
ception and give the ladies a chance
to kiss him. The motion was car
ried with awhoop and Col. Will
Jams assured Col Breathitt that he
would help him receive if he found
an uncomfortable rush of business.
The exact date was not decided up
on, but the Attain win probably
come off in a few days unless Col.
Breath;tt should back out when it
comes to the pinch.
The annual election of officers
was held before adjournment and.
proved to be very tame proceed
ing
Vice President Bassett was pro-
poted to the Office Of President and
1ol. Bob WooldridgeE was elected
Vice President without opposition

Commissioner Patterson Has Somewhat
to Say of the State Fair.

The Bulletin of the North Carolina
State Board of Agriculture, for July,
was issued yesterday. 1t is the first
issued by the new officers and 1t APP
pears in new and improved form. The
subject matter of the twenty-eight pages
comprised i'm it is also of Il much more
interesting and useful character than it
has been hcretofore.
Commissioner Patterson in his s;lluta-
totry speaks OF his pleasure at again
assuming control OF the department, in
troduces his assistants to the public and
has this to say touching fertilizer in
spcctors:
AT p recent meeting of the Board OF
Agriculture, fifteen fertilizer inspectors
were appointed, from which selections
will he made, ut the discretion of the
Commissioner, rs the needs Of the in
spection work require.
They are paid of course only for the
time actually employed. The 1me usually
employed in inspection Is some two
months in the fall and from three 10
four months in the spring. Two Oh
three inspectors for the fall movement
Of fertilizers, and five or six for the
spring, will usually be amply sufficient
for thorough Inspection
Concerning the State Fair, to be held
here from October 10th TO DIST, he says:
The people of the State generally are
perhaps not aware of the magnitude, va
riety and excellence of the exhibits made
at the Fair. Constant improvements
from year to year marks not only the
manifest progress i'll all lines of indus
trial activity. but increased interest also
in the advantages and usefulness of tne
Fair.
Until recently the association was
hampered with floating indebtedness
and found it impossible to pay in full
all the premiums offered. Last year I'M
der the capablc and efficient manage
ment OF Col. John $. Cunningham. Pres
i,!ent tnow also Chairman of State
Board of Agriculture, the Fair Assoc
ciatiCn paid off all the floating debt, met
all expenses and paid every premium Of
fered.
The outlook is even better for the
coming Fair Tho premium list has
been carefully revised, many of the
premiums substantially increased. espe-
cially in the line of agricultural products.
Applications for space are already com
ing i'll. and Il large exhibit is practically
assured
THE railroads always give special
rates and the people can put in day
or two, pleasantly and probably in
coming to see.
