Editor John L. Britt. OF the Oxford
Public Ledger, was here a short while
Friday on his way to Raleigh. Pro-
gressive, public-sprited man that he
is, always wide awake and thoroughly
alive to the best interests of his town
and section, he is deeply interested
in the establishing of Graded Schools
in his town and was going to Raleigh
to invite Gov. Aycock to visit Oxford
and speak in their behalf. The GOLD

good fortune it does for it's own, but
whether the cause of popular educa-

Britt will have the consciousness OF
loyal service faithfully performed and
if his people do not keep in line with
the spirit of advancement, progress
and prosperity it will be due to no
fault of his.

OppOsitiOn Less Pronounced.

As the time draws nearer, opposi-

pronounced. A few will vote against
it. of course-there are always some
obiectionists 10 any measure OF
which they are not to be the chief

vote at all since this will have the

minority. The proposition will carry
and Henderson will continue to be

Hanna took the witness for redirect
examination. He began by asking if
he knew the reason for the lapse of
five or six days between the sending of
dispatches by, the Hawk and the Wasp.
TIC this inquiry Rayner objected, and
there was quite spirited argument on
the part of counsel on 10th sides as to
the admissibility of the question.
Hanna stated in the course of his argu-
ment that the matter could be fully ex-
planned, but said that if the court OBJ
Jected he would not press the matter.
Whereupon Admiral Dewey remarked:
You had better not ask that ques-
ton The last witness Of the day was

PLANS FOR CZOLGOsZs DEATH
Official Representative of the Government
to Attend the EIectrocution.

Albany, n Y, Oct. 15.-Superinten-
dent Cornelius Y. Collins will send a
request to Secretary of State Hay to
designate an official representative of
the government to be present at the
electrocution of Leon T. CZolgosZ, the
assassin of President Mckinley. Only
twenty-siX witnesses will be present
in the chamber of death when the SEN
tence is executed. Warden Mead has
received over LOCO requests to attend
the electrOcution.
Statements to the effect that Czol-
gosz is in a continual state of collapse
are false. Superintendent Collins had
a talk with the condemned man some
days ago and at that time he said he
knew he had to die and expressed no
fear as to the electrocution. Since his
confinement in Auburn prison several
thousand letters have been received
for him at the prison as we'll as large
humber of express packages contain
ing flowers and fruit, sent by Christian
societies with a view to consoling him
in his last moments.

SOME POINTS IN COOKS TALK
Did the Loop to Head Off the Dons-Never
Feared Collision.


Feared Collision.
Washington, Oct 15.-YeSterday III
the Schley court of inquiry Judge Ad-
vOcate Lemly concluded the presenta-
ton Of testimony for the government,
and the first Of Admiral Schley's wit
nesses was introduced. Captain Fran
els A. Cook, who commanded Admiral
(then Commodore Schley's flagship
the Brooklyn, during the Santiago cam
paign, and who acted, though unoffi-
cially, in the capacity of chief of staff
for the commodore, was on the witness
stand the greater part of the day.
Captain Cook told why the ''loop"
was executed, and said that he never
thought of the possibility Of a collision
with the Texas, although he saw her
and he put her off at distance Of
400 yards at the least and claimed to
be good at judging distances. He said
he himself gave the order for the
'1oop." The reason for the order,
Captain Cook said, was:
'When [ saw the [Spanish] feet
they were heading southwest, and
seemed to be coming straight for the
interval between the Texas and the
Brooklyn. s. Finally, when we
were getting up fairly close, say be-
tween 1,500 to 1000 yards, it seemed
to me clear that they wanted to pass
between the Texas and the Brooklyn.
The Texas was we'll on our starbOard
hand and she was headed to the north
ward and westward The Spanish
fleet was coming straight for this in
terval. | stepped out of the tower on
thn Si6 fn q
fleet, to see just what they were going
to do as to our relative positions, and
I saw they evidently put helms hard
aport and were turning to the west
ward"
The Brooklyn was teen well around
on her loop, and the captain ordered
the helm put hard aport-it had been
put half way to port at the beginning
of the loop-and this sent the Brook
lyn around very rapidly until she was
parallel with the Spaniards. Cook
then told the story of the chase, not
materially differing from others who
have told IT,
One thing he made clear. and that
was that whoever said Damn the
Texas" it was not he; nor did he
hear the words. He also said he never
was III fear of being rammed. The
idea of a collision with the Texas new
err entered his head. He said this in
manner showing that he had no faith
in the story that a collision was even
possible at that time.
Nunez, Schley's first witness. testi-
fled that he did not believe Cervera
was at Santiago even as late as May
e. Schley had sent him ashore with
letter to CaliXto Garcia, the Cuban
leader. He did not see Garcia, but
gave the letter to Colonel Cebereco, an
other Cuban leader, who confirmed the
presence of Cervera at Santiago and
gave the names of the ships in the
horbor. This was on Tune T.

Bra.u-FOOd Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent authori-

brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish particular part of the
body, but 1t will sustain every other part.
Yet, however good your food may be,
it's nutrment is destroyed by indigestion
or dyspepsia. You must prepare for
their appearance or prevent their com

All Cheese Is DeDse1y Populated.

Professor Adametz, who devoted con-
siderable time to the study Of the fra
grant subject, said that the population
of an ordinary cheese when a few
weeks old is greater than the number
of persons upon the earth.
Professor AdametZ made some inter-
esting researches dealing with the mi
mute organisms found in cheese. From
a microscopic examination Of soft
variety Of Gruyere cheese he obtained
the following statistics: In fifteen
grains of cheese, when perfectly fresh.
from 10000 to 100000 microbes were
found and when the cheese was sew
enty days old the population had in
creased to 100000 in each fifteen
grains. An examination Of denser
cheese at twenty-five days old proved
it to contain 100000 in each gram
about fifteen grains) and when forty
five days old 100000 in the same
small particle.

Looks Like the Insurgents Are Growing
More Troublesome, at This Time.
Manila Oct 1.-THE military au-
thorities have received word that Gen
eral Miguel Malvar, the insurgent
leader, is believed to have left the
province of Batangas, LuZon, and to be
planning an operation in the province
of Bulacan, where insurgent conscrip-
ton has been progressing recently. The
country there is mountainous and well
adapted to guerrilla warfare.
The police force at Banana, province
of Batangas, has been disarmed and
the chef of police and several others
have been placed under arrest on
charge of belonging to an insurgent
society and using their offices to obtain
information for the insurgents. There
is intense feeling among the natives in
San Fernando, province of Pampanga,
over the killing Of native by a sol
der. Strong patrols are out in both
San Fernando and BacOlOr to prevent a
hostile demonstration.
There is considerable criticism here
of the recent statements of Represen-
tative Edgar Weeks, of Michigan, re-
garding Filipino character and posi-
bllities. The native press unstintingly
condemns the conclusions Of Weeks as
unjust and viciously false" Weeks
said the Filipinos must be ruled by
fear. The members of the Philippine
commission say he is too sweeping"

Spiders Are Industrious.

No small insect ever escapes from
the web Of a spider, a fact which is
not to be wondered at when it is con-
sidered that an ordinary sized snare
may contain as many as 10000 viscid
globules. The spinner is constantly
engaged in repairing injuries to the
web inflicted by wind, stray leaves or
captured insects Once a day the whole
snare is subjected to rigorous examina-
ton, and any broken or loosened
threads are adjusted
