Governor Aycock Says Northern Philanthro-

Without 1t.
Without It,.

In reply to a telegraphic inquiry from
the New York Herald as to the results
that will follow the Educational Confer
ence at Winston Salem, Governor Aycock
wired:
This conference for education in the
South, under the Craftsmanship of Mr.
Robert c. Ogden, will be of great bene-
fit. There were in attendance not only
the leading men of the North interested
in education bat many eminent North
Carolinians and other Southern educators.
There was full and frank discussion Of
education problems and an interchange
of views which can but be beneficial. We
know more of the Northern view and
our visitors know more of us. We do not
probably entirely agree, but we respect
more than ever the opinions of each
other. If the negro is ever educated it
will be by the aid of Southern white men.
The North cannot do it, Education Of
the whites will precede the education Of
the negroes. Philanthropists in the North
may think they can educate the negro
without the help of Southern whites. but
they are mistaken. Mr., Ogden's party
knows this. Indeed l think they were

informed of conditions before they came.
Their visit was a great pleasure to us
and will be of incalculable benefit. They
could not have come at a better time.
We are in this State in the midst Of an
educational revival. We favor universal
education and intend to accomplish it. If
our friends in the North, earnest men and
women choose to aid us in our work
we shall receive their aid with graft
tude. If they withhold assistance we
shall nevertheless do the work which
lies before us. We need help, but
we can do the work unaided and will rata
er than humiliate ourselves. Speaking
for North Carolina, / declare our pur-
pose to be to move to the front in edu
cational matters. AS to the negro we
shall do our full duty by him. We are
willing to receive aid for his education,
but without aid we shall in the long run
teach him. He is with us to stay. His
destiny and ours are so interviewer that
We cannot help ourselves up without at
the same time lifting him. What we
want of Northern people of right thought
and upright intention more than all their
money, is a frank recognition Of this I'M
deniable fact and we will do the rest

A Drinking Orchid.

A strange species of orchid has been
found in South America along the Rio
de la Platte, the land of peculiar
plants and flowers. This particular or
child whenever it feels thirsty takes q
drink by letting down tube into
the water. When the tube is not In
use it is coiled up on the top OF the
plant. 1t is highly interesting to
watch the working OF this plant. When
it feels that it needs water the tube
gradually unwinds itself until 1t dips
into the water. Then it slowly coils
round and winds up, carrying with 1t
the amount of water contained In that
part of the tube which had been i'm
mersed, until the final coil is taken.
when the water is dumped into the
heart of the plant. Then the tube re-
mains coiled until more water is re-
quired.
The plant grows at the edge Of a
stream directly over the water or
where the water has been. Where the
water has dried away it is almost
pathetic to see the tube work its way
over the ground in search of moisture
to nourish the plant.

CHECKS FIRES ON SHIPS.
! Berlin Chemists Invsn tion Imprsxnates
| Air with CarbonIc Acid Gao.

Berlin Chemists Inven tion Imprsxnatss
Air with Carbonic Acid Gas.
1t Is well known that fire cannot burn
in an atmosphere strongly impregnated
with carbonic acid gas. This fact has
been utilized by inventors, with the
result that we have hand fire grenades
in many public buildings and factories.
and experience has repeatedly demon
strated their value. Some experiments
have recently been made in Bremen
in connection with a mode OF extin
gushing fires on board ship, invented
by Berlin chemist named Gronwald,
that Is based upon the theory Of the
hand fire grenade. The objects aimed
at and said to have been attained by
the new system are: First, to give
timely notice, by means of a special
apparatus, of any fire which may break
out in the hold of a ship; and, second.
to extinguish promptly the fre by
pumping carbonic acid gas into the
hold. Two piles of wood were built
up in the forehold of a lighter. The
large logs were mixed with smaller
blocks of wood and quantity Of wood
shavings soaked in petroleum. On the
about a fourth of ton of coal, and
in the hold was placed an iron basket
filled with coke heated to perfect
glow. The two piles of wood were set
alight simultaneously at 4:07 o'clock
in the afternoon. The fire developed
quickly with the matches open. and at
4:21 the matches were closed Then
carbonic acid gas was pumped into the
hold for twenty-one minutes. and ten
minutes later the matches were opened.
The fire was found to be extinguished
completely. The fire alarm worked
perfectly, and the thermometer on
deck showed correctly the rise and fall
of the temperature in the hold. The
inventor claims that when a fire
breaks out in a ships hold, II his sys-
tenn is followed the fire will be an
nounced automatically on deck; It will
be kept under observation from the
deck and extinguished by operations
carried out on deck.
