REVIEWERS TRYING TO INTIMI
DATE.

A private letter from Asheboro con-
firms the account of the attempted in
timidation of the registrar at that
place by revenue officer by the name
of Jim Tull. What business has rev.
enue officer to quit the business for
which he is paid, to try to run over
State officers in the performance of
their sworn duties?
Here are additional facts about the
Asheboro case:
Several of the negroes who failed
to furnish satisfactory testimony as
to their qualifications are criminals
and eX-convicts of the lowest class.
The negro, Sam Bowden. is criminal
who has lived in Montgomery and
Richmond counties, who has been in
the county off and on for the past
twelve months. The revenuer is
breathing threats against our people.
The registrar has remained cool and
has at no time lost his temper or pres
ence of mind, but feeling is high
against L. S. Marshal Millillin and
the revenue crowd.
ALL THE TROUBLE WE HAVE
HERE COMES FROM REVENUE
OFFICERS AND NEGROES"

Summer came.

Kirkland, and put himself in the way

his life, but after a fortnight's patience
he found his way to the lodge where
Miss Blynn's friends lived.

"She's restless" commented Kirk

He put all shyness and sense of pro-
priety behind him and determined to
find out why. The morning after reach
ing the city he made himself gay in
white duck and boldly called at her
house. She was out OF a porch at the
rear of the severe-looking city house,
and had made herself a miniature
country seat there, with palms and
ferns and flowers. The hammock was
moving as if she had just quilted it,
but when he met her she was arising
decorously from one of the chairs that
surrounded a reading table Uttered
with the midsummer magazines.
"You haven't your skates on!" she
cried mockingly, extending her hand.
Her eyebrows went up and came down
in a funny, nervous little way and the
corners of her mouth seemed tremu-
lous.

skates on in order to recommend my

happiness of being together again.

realized the enormous sum of $55, 900
Of course. Patti was the principal at.
traction, and the London papers vie
with each other in declaring that she
looked younger than ever in a beauti-
full pale blue silk gown covered with
diamonds, emeralds and turquoises
Nine. Patti was accompanied during
her songs by Mr.. Frank Watkis, who
has been in constant attendance upon
the great singer throughout all he1
tours since 1893. His touch is produc-
tive of a constant ripple of extraordi-
nary lightness and delicacy. The piano
talks to itself, as it were, yet never
leaves the voice unaccompanied. Such
a voice as Nine. PATHS needs a most
sensitive accompanist-one who can
follow the varying emotions of the
great singer throughout all her moods
and expressive c~adenzas, and Mr.. Wat
kis has succeeded wonderfully in
pleasing her.

said. "Because-well, because / came

Because it was such a long way

But something in the accent OF the
speech made it personal and precious
to Kirkland. And he lifted her hand
to his lips.-Chicago Tribune.

I knew at the time that I was doing
wrong"
Before he could get over thinking
how quaint a speech this was she was
gone. He saw her nj more that night.
There was nothing, it would seem,
in this brief association, to keep him
waking till dawn. There was nothing
to make her hold her fingers close
upon her eyes, as if to shut out a vi
sion. The mystery remains always be-
yond explanation-there is no defini-
ton to the magic word-there is no
fashion in which the necromancy can
be accounted for.
The morning found him eager to see
her, and found her wondering by what
mean she could avoid him. There
was ice boating, and while he searched
for her he saw her flying by in n of
the Swimming craft, sitting erect and
fearless, while the great white boat
took to itself the wings of a reckless
bird.
In the Afternoon there was a must
Gale, and he saw her sitting demure
and sober in a corner where he could
not reach her; and later, at dinner, in
all the witchery of her cleaning toilet
of white. he had the sorry satisfaction
of glimpsing her as she went down to
dinner with another man.
In the evening she seemed to fit be-
fore his eyes like a will-o'-the-wisp.
He could never get near enough to
speak. He gave up at length, and went
away, angry and hurt. And the next
morning a telegram came, calling him
back to town. He said to himself
that he would meet her somewhere,
though he was quite ware that her
life was much more given up to fash
ionable pleasures than his own. But
the winter wore way and he met her
nowhere. He could not think of try
ing to call upon her. She had not asked
him to do so; she had seemed not to
care for him after that first night, but
accuse himself as he might of having
been an infatuated fool. he could not
rid himself of the idea that for a few
hours his soul was nearer to hers than
it had ever been to that of any other
human being. To be sure, their happi-
ness and sweet intimacy had been hid

The project for building a new ia
eade to the cathedral of Milan, which
has been at the point of execution for
fourteen years, is receiving so much
opposition that it is not impossible
that it may be abandoned. The old
facade struck a discordant note, but
many Of it's details were fine. AS the
bequest which was to largely pay the
cost Of the construction of the facade
was to revert to the great. hospital
at Milan If the construction was not
begun within a certain time, it is
probable that the Milanese public will
not regard the loss Of a new facade a
serious matter.

OUR SOLDIERS LOOK ALIKE.
Fair-Haired Saxon Type Prevails In the

Fair-Haired Saxon Type Prevails In the
Army.
The Saxon type prevails throughout
our active fighting forces; al least, It
SO appears to the mere e~ye-observer,
whatever the records may show. A
newspaper correspondent. now in Bos-
ton, called my attention to this at San
Fernando. in the interior of Luzon, and
1 had myself noticed and spoken of it.
Everywhere the pale blue or gray eye,
everywhere the fair skin, everywhere
the tawny hair and beard. In Cebu,
Panay, Negroes, and Sulu' the same.
phenomenon, writes Senator Bever-
idge. In many instances the boards
have been allowed to grow, and OBJ
servances were startlingly struck with
the resemblance which these fierce
looking bearded men-boys in years
bore to the old pictures in our primary
school histories of twenty-five years
ago, and of the descriptions which &C.
companied them. The Saxon type Is as
conspicuous in the Philippines as the
flag itself. OF course, the dark haiI
and eye are there, too. Three of the
most daring and enduring soldiers ]
met were of that type, but the general
impression is distinctly fairness in
hair and lightness in eye. This calls
to mind the homogeneity of the people
of the republic. One might well expect
the same type in the men from the
Dakotas, Nebraska and Kansas; but
he who has not followed chronological
currents in America would have ex-
pected that the southern troops would
have been quite a different type. And
yet, in the Tennessee troops in Iloilc
was found precisely the same type as
in the Dakota troops at San Fernando.
You might have said that they all
| came from the same section, the same
state, the same county, almost the
same family. 1t was an inspiring
thought; the American people are in
deed one people. The boys from Ten
nessee look like the brothers Of the
boys from Nebraska or Montana. The
boys from Oregon and Washington
look like the brothers of the boys from
Pennsylvania. The boys from Cali.
fornia look like the brothers of the
boys from Minnesota. And brother;
they are-brothers of the blood, broth,
ers of the flag, brothers of battle
brothers of destiny. How mad mus
be the man who dares believe that by
any temporary emergency these broth.
ers can ever be divided against them
selves.-Saturday Evening Post.

The state of health of n Of our two
surviving ex-Presidents was the sub
ject of numerous newspaper para
graphs a few weeks ago.. Neither of
the two has yet reached the average
number of years attained by ex-Presi-
dents from Washington to Arthur.
Washington's brief life after he left
the presidency was longer than that of
Polk or of Arthur, for in the June fol-
lowing the close of his chief m7"i~
tracy Polk was dead, and Arthur
vived his retirement less than ~
years. John Adams lived twenty-five
years as ex-President, and his son,
John Quincy Adams, showed for near
ly nineteen years how Importantly a
former chief magistrate may serve his
country. Van Buren, and Fillmore sur
vived the presidency twenty-one years;
Madison, nineteen years; Jefferson and
Tyler, seventeen years; Pierce, twelve
years, and Hayes nearly as long.
