is good enough to be read
twice: Do not beg so much of business
men. There is seldom week passes,
md hardly day when our citizens
who are engaged in business are not
called upon to contribute something
'or charity's sake. 1t is always the
merchants who are asked to shoulder
his varied and gratuitous giving.
Some people seem to think that they
who are in business can pick up dollars
anywhere, and ought to contribute
willing and literally every time asked.
Well just say that as rule dollars are
40 more plentiful with business people
han with any other. Don't ask too
much of them. Just remember that
hey have "troubles of their own"
Beg your money for while of the
and owners and retired men who have
plenty of money drawing interest. The
business men would appreciate the
change.

SwanSbOrO Notes
Correspondence of the Messenger

Correspondence OF the MeSSenger.)
Swansboro, July 81.
Our little village by the sea is, or
seems to be. somewhat on a boom.
Visitors come and go every day. Among
them / note this week Messrs. Walker
Meares, H. S~tearle, G.. French and DR..
w. Bunting, of Wilmington; ]. Eth
ridge and Justice Hugh Humphrey, Of
G~oldsboro; Frank and E.. Witty, Of
Polloksville; ]. F. Prettyman, of New
Bern: Leb Gillett, of Maysville and
many others mostly all pleasure seek
ers: for this is a very healthy resort,
especially in the summer months, the
only drawback being the lack of hotel
accommodations.
If we lac a hotel and railroad here,
this would be one of the prettiest and
most healthful summer resort in east
ern Carolina.
There is now a project On foot for a
stock company to build a railroad from
here to some point to connect the Will
mington and New Bern road, and the
people seem to think Wilmington will
take stock. Mr.. j. F. Prettyman, pro-
prietor of the SwansbOro Lumber Com
pany. j. Nj. Jores, J. A. Pittman, D. G.
Ward and others are talking up this
project and we trust they will meet
with success in the near future.
Many new building have gone up this
year, among them a nice two story
building Tor the Baptist parsonage,
now nearly completed. We have three
nice churches n six stores. Our pop
ulation now is about $780, all whites,
not a single negro lives in the incorpor-
ated limits.
The weather IS very hot and dry now,
three degrees hotter than at any time
this summer, and crops are very sorry
as to corn and cotton; peas and pota-
toes a little better. 1t is always
healthy nere, only two deaths in five
years.
Mr.. E. r. Provost of Indian River
Fla. came here last week and reported
hotter weather here than at his home
there. He was born and raised in this

WAR NEWS.

The intelligent and active London cor
respondent Of The New York Tribune
cabled on the 2Sth ultimo, as to recent
war news. He says it remains a rec
ord of misery and suffering for two
fighting races, each with inexhaustible
powers Of endurance. The Beers are
credited with a success in forcing
Steinacker's Horse to ~evacuate Brem-
ersdorp and fight it's way to Lembobo,
in Swaziland. This incident shows that
the clearance of the Eastern T~ransvaal
has not been so effective as was sup
posed" He gives other details of the
war-of the operations of both sides
with some rather important results.
In the meantime the women and chill
dren are dying, the war drags it's
w~earying length and John Bull is dead
to every thing but destroying the two
little republics. The correspondent says
hat the most hopeful word brought
by Baden-Powell is that the war can
not last longer than three or four
months This is not reassuring tidings
for a nation signing YEARLY for peace"
If Emperor William, of Germany, shall
make an earnest effort to bring peace
he may accomplish what now is seem
ingly impossible. Europe united could
ave closed that African war long ago.
