Crops in Richmond County.
Buckingham Anglo Saxon.)

Mr.. ID. A. Parsons, of Caples Mill, was in
town yesterday. He reports the cotton
crop on clay land improving rapidly in
his section. The corn crop he says,
in some places is a total failure and is
generally very short: The fact that corn
has advanced 10 cents bushel in the
last two weeks makes it very important
that the farmers should make the most
possible of their corn crops, as we'll as
forage crops. Peas would make hay if
planted now, but seed is very scarce.
All kinds of grain and hay crops are
going to be enormously high on account
of Western droughts.

Among the Railroads.


The steel bridge acros the Roanoke
river at Weldon, now being torn out and
replaced by a new steel tructure, was
built just a quarter of century ago-ln
1871 7S-after great freshet had swept
away the old wooden one. The new bridge
will be larger and stronger than the
present one, as the latter is too light
for the heavy traffic. The same piers
will bew used. 1t is odd but true that the
wooden bridge across Deep river, near
Moncure, built in 1872, is yet standing
and takes the heavy traffic all right.
1t is said the well-built wooden bridges
are more durable and can stand more
than those of metal. David Renno, the
greatest builder of wooden bridges in
this part of the country, built the Deep
river bridge.

GOOD FOR MR.. PUGH.

The Roanoke -Chowan Times says of the
official work of Mr.. B. M. Pugh, justice
of the peace of Jackson township, North
ampton county:
"Mr. Pugh pays yearly to the county
treasurer larger amount in fines than
the Superior and Criminal courts of the
county. This statement seems incredi-
BILE, but nevertheless true. Mr. Pugh is a
terror to 'evjl-doers in his part of the
county The judgment in our Superior
court is most always in the same form,
namely Suspension of judgment upon
payment of costs, but not so in Justice
Pughs court, to the good of the coun-
ty''
1t would be a good thing if some Su-
perior court judges could form a class and
20 to school to Mr.. Pugh before holding
another term of court. This entry "Judg-
ment suspended on payment of costs"
has come to be so common as, in many
cases, to amount to a failure to punish.
When not founded upon wisdom, it is rob-
bIng the school fund. There are, of course,
cases in which this judgment ought to be
entered but that judgment has come to
be rendered too often.
Good for Mr.. Pugh! May his exam
pie be emulated!

MORE TRUSTS FORMING.

If the trust formation continues the
time is not distant when almost every
thing in the country will be controlled by
them. Whether this would be beneficial
to the country or otherwise we are not

however, that can never be controlled by
trust and that is good health. The
best means of obtaining this is by the
use of Hostetters Stomach Bitters. This
wonderful medicine continues to cure all
stomach, liver and bowel troubles, the
same as it has done for the past fifty

NOTHING s'STAGNANT" ABOUT THIS

Savannah News
In one of the Sunday schools of Chi
cago, it appears, the children are be-
ing fed upon pabulum of higher criti-
cism'' of the Bible. They are taught, in
the lesson papers in use in that school,
that the chronology of the creation given
in the Bible is absolutely worthless, that
the date of the flood as it appears from
Scriptural data is wrong, and that the
story of the flood itself is a universal
tradition, which is treated of not alone
from the Bible viewpoint. What is to be
expected of the future of church which
permits this sort of thing in it's nursery?
To undermine chld's faith is to destroy
it's capacity for exercising faith in after
years.

HOW TO PREVENT LYNCHING.

to give Governor Aycock their full sup
port in his efforts to do away with lynch
ing. 1.-The certainty and not the severity
of the law deters men from wrong doing.
The penalty of the crime for which the
average man is lynched is DEATH. The
prompt land effectuaI use of the courts
will prevent crime as much as lynch law
There is nothing so demoralizing to a

Washington, February 14.-The events in connection with the sale of the old New York custom house to the National City Bank, which heretofore has been the subject of much comment, occupied the center of the stage during the debate on the sundry civil appropriation bill in the House today. Much excitement at tended the debate.
 MT. McRae, Arkansas, raised the issue with a motion to strike out the appropria- tion of S371, ,047 for rent of the custom house, and with this motion as a basis, MT, Jones of Virginia launched a fierce attack upon the manner and circum- stance of the sale and the vast profits which he claimed the bank made out of the transaction. Secretary Gage was sharply criticized, and several references were made to the letter written by MT. Hepburn to Secretary Gage apropos the political claims of the bank
 MT. Cannon and Mir Hopkins defended the customhouse transaction, and the latter turned tables on the Democrats by springing upon them a series of letters written by prominent Democrats, includ- ing Senator Jones of Arkansas, to the secretary of the treasury under the Cleveland administration, assuring the deposits of government funds in banks with Democratic proclivities. His center shot was letter written by Representa- tive Richardson of Tennessee, now the Democratic leader of the House, in be- half of a bank at Murfreesboro, Tenn.

Cincinnati, February 14.-There will be or any one else in Saengerfest Hall in this city tomorrow night, and no other date has been fixed for the event. Neither will there be any mobilization of troops outside of the hall or anywhere else to- morrow night or any other time in this city to keep Jeffries and Ruhlin from meeting here The permanent injunction issued by Judge Hollister today against the proposed championship contest to- caused the indefinite postponement of the arrangement of the state and county authorities as well as of the promoters to the contest Jeffries and Ruhlin still maintain their quarters, but they are not doing much training, and both expect to leave for their respective engagements next Saturday night and to keep their dates on the road next week
 
 tonight, it was announced that nothing had been done except to postpone indefin- itely the contest. It was announced that there would be another meeting tomor- row afternoon at which it would be de- cided whether the defendants would carry the case to the Circuit and Supreme Courts, and the contest be postponed to such date as would allow time for coun- sel to carry the case to the higher courts.
 While no such definite information was received from the promoters tonight, as expected, yet it is believed to be due to some controversy over the $5000 forfeit, and not to any question regarding the injunction The promoters annouced that they would abide by the decree of the court absolutely.
