Gen. J. S. Carr For Senator.

To the Editor: The approaching cleo
ton of a United States Senator is one in
which every man in North Carolina is
directly interested. venture to say
that not a more important election ever
concerned the citizens of any State than
the election of its Senator, hence we
cannot be too particular in selecting the
right man.
l heartily endorse what has already
been said in your columns in
General Julian s. Cars behalf, and in
so doing, | am confident that l voice the
sentiment of big majority of the great
plain people of the State
He like the immortal Vance. is indeed
the peoples candidate, unmindful of his
own interest and always and under all
circumstances doing what he can to pro-
mote the interest of the plain people
whom he has shown through all his life
that he loves and honors. In the recent
campaign, he was not officially
connected in any way, yet to such as he
is due the credit OF our victory. II you
wanted him to contribute to q barbecue
or grand rally he always did it, if you
wanted him to make a speech he always
responded. While he is a stalwart loyal
Democrat, yet he is always charitable
enough in his views to command the re-
spect and esteem of all parties. He is
loved most by those that know him best.
In him the old Confederate veteran has
a comrade that sticketh as close as
brother, one who is always ready, anX-
ious and willing to lend a helping hand
to his every need. In him the orphan
has father, so to speak. In him every
institution of learning throughout this
grand old State has a benevolent friend,
and furthermore, in him North Carolina
has son whose heart and purse are on
her altar to be sacrificed in the promo
ton of her interest in any way.
On account of his big patriotic heart
and Christian character there is no man
in North Carolina who could fill our be-
loved Vance's seat in the United States
Senate with more credit to himself and
honor to his State than could General
Julian Shakespeare Carr.

EARTHQUAKE ONLY JARRED IT
Thcy:s Damage to Muir Glacier I'm
Alaska Much Less Than was
Reported.

The reported destruction of the fa-
nous Muir glacier on the shores of
Glacier bay, Alaska, by an earthquake
last year is pronounced untrue by
William u. Pearce, who got within four
miles of the glacier in August of this
year on the excursion steamer Queen,
says the New York Sun. Pearce says:
THE Muir glacier is just as grand
as ever. The trouble this season has
been that vessels have not been able
to get close enough for passengers to
see it. The earthquake shook off large
masses of ice from the face of the
glacier, which, when floating in the
bay, appear as huge icebergs and block
the passage of vessels. BY next sea-
son the bay will be clear again and
the glacier can be approached as in
former years.
THE damage by the earthquake is
but as dropin the bucket. can bet
ter explain its work by saying that il
took off the face of the glacier for so
feet or so, while the main body extends
back, visible to the eye, 90 miles. The
glacier runs hack from its face on Gla-
cier bay to the head of the Davidson
glacier, which faces on Lynn canal,
distance of As miles. All this season
Muir inlet has been full of small bergs,
so that vessels, after proceeding as
far as they could, were forced to back
out. On the August trip of the Queen
the surface of the glacier looked to
be from rs to 30 feet high, but it is
in reality from $50 to 200 feet high.
Next year people will be able to get
close to it, and will find it just as large
and just as grand as it ever was. AS
rule vessels have not been able, dur
ing the past season, to get closer than
10 or Is miles to the glacier"

ENGINEERS HAUNTED HOUSE.
New York Railway Men Affected by
the Memory of n Dead Face
Mt a window.

"Some houses are haunted to some
people and all right to Others" said an
engineer on the Ninth avenue elevated
road, relates the New York Sun.
There is house on our line that is
haunted to the men who have been on
this run for few years back. Maybe
you remember the story. 1t was print
ed when the incident happened. One
of our men noticed mans face at the
window overlooking the road. Every
time the train passed for three days,
believe, the engineer saw the face. Tt
was always the same. Then he told
somebody else about it and on investi-
cation it was discovered that the man
at the window was dead. He occupied
the room alone. There was no one else
in the house. He had killed himself and
in note found on his table it was writ
ten that the man was lonesome, and
that he had raised the window just
before the act so that he might die in
the noise of the city. That was all there
was to the story.
Every since that time every en-
gineer and fireman on the line who was
employed at that time turns his face
away in passing that house. I have
heard them all speak of it, and to each
of them that house is haunted, al
though il is now occupied, and I don't
suppose the people who live there know
anything about the story, I know I
have tried to forget it, but just before
my engine passes it the recollection
of the dead face at the window comes
back to me and either close my eyes
or look in an opposite direction"

Birth Rate I'm Europe.

The most recent statistics show a
decrease of the birth rate in every
European country, the average de-
crease being three per cent. since
1891. This is curious fact and seems
TO show that the Malthusian theory
failed to take into account certain con
ditions in nature that tend to prevent
the overpopulation Of the earth. For
some time it has been known that the
birth rate in France has been unsatis-
factory. But it was not suspected that
every country in Europe was in the
same declining condition, though to
less degree.
