Educational Enthusiasm

superintendent OF Public INSTRUCTION
Gen. F. f. Toon is back in the city from
a tour of Ashe and Allegheny counties.
In these counties he made number of
educational addresses. He was highly
gratifed at the very great interest he
found in the mountains in educational de-
velopment and was surprised to find so
much enthusiasm. In the extreme west
he found as great an interest as in
Piedmont Carolina. and his information
is that throughout the entire State there
is a determination to push forward along
educational lines. Mrs. Toon and daugh-
tiers went with Gen. Toon to Roaring
Gap and will remain there some time.

VALUABLE HINTS TO
THOUGHTFUL MEN

Thoughtful men who are afflicted with
any of the organic diseases of tie pelvic
region which are peculiar to the male, or
who are becoming wasting wrecks
through the effects of habit or disease,
should consider that the least expensive
course by which to obtain a cure is to
apply at the earliest possible moment to
the one who has the undisputcd ability
and skill to cure every case he under
takes.

bility, Varicocele, Structure, Prostate

to be beyond all human aid.
Those who investigate the merits origi-

scientific physician, soon perceive the adj
vantagcs to be derived, by consulting
him, and are duly added to his great list

of all men that Varicocele. Structure, Dis

of personal weakness or disease cannot
be too strongly emphasized.
No matter what your age or the stage
of your disease, it is your duty to get the

which he has devoted all of his profess

THE co1oRED NoRMALs.
State Board Of Education to Consider Their
Future This Morning

This morning the State Board of Ed
ucation meets to consider the question
of the colored normal schools of the
State and yesterday a number of par
ties interested in the normals reached
the city to confer with the board.
From Fayetteville, where one of the
norma1s is located, there came a large
delegation. In it We're Senators J. d.
Mcneil, chairtassxeof the local. board of
the FayetttevilNgaNo Normal; Capt. Ed
ward MacKetha representative from
Cumberland Maze j. Hale, of the
Fayetteville observer; M. A. II. Slo-
cumb, president of the chamber of COM
MacKethan, Capt. j. A. Mcpherson, Mr..
B. G.. Hollingsworth, Mr.. John Smith
and others. From Tarboro Mr.. Don
Gillian came and from Franklinton Mr..
r. b. White, County Superintendent of
Public Instruction.
There reached the city also the fol-
lowing principals of the normals: Profs.
e. E. Smith, of Fayetteville who is ex-
Minister to Hayti, and one of the first
colored teachers Of the State; G. M.
Epps, of Plymouth, Jno. A. Savage, of
Franklinton There are four other col
ored normals in the State, Winston,
Salisbury, Elizabeth City Goldsboro,
and delegations are expected from these
places today.
The appropriation for each of these
institutions is about $1,S54, and the last
Legislature. while continuing the total
appropriation, left the direction of the
fund and the management of the nor
mails in the hands Of the State Board of
Education.
One question that will come before the
board will be the consolidation of a
number of these schools. and this will
be favored by some. Others favor a
plan of a number of academies prepare
tory to lesser number of State Nor
mails than at present There will also
be a proposition to do away with the
co-educational feature of the normals,
and to arrange fora separate normal for
the negro girls. The colored principals
who have raised outside funds for
scholarships for the girls do not favor
this and the meeting is apt to bring
forth many views as to what is best
to be done with the schools in the flu
ture.

NO COMPULSORY ARBITRATION.
Organized Labor in Virginia Will Fight At
tempt to Make it Law.
(By the Associated Press.)

Norfolk, Va, July 9.-Organized labor
in this State is deeply interested in the
rumor that an endeavor will be made to
have the Constitutional Convention to
insert a clause in the new State consul
tuition providing for compulsory
arbitration board.
Meetings of the various labor unions
in the different cities of Virginia nave
been held and delegates elected to &C
company President Noel, of Roanoke,
Virginia. to head the Federation or
Labor in this State, to Richmond at
once where the body will appear before
the convention and enter vigorous
protest against the adoption of the COM
pulsory arbitration clause.
The laboring faction is in favor of a
State arbitration board, but is opposed
to it being made compulsory, because
they fear the appointments of the
boards members may be controlled by
corporate interests.
