a PATHETlc PICTmRE-

A pathetic picture has been
sketched by one of the army CORES
pondents engaged, along with the
rest of the world, in the ''death
watch outside the palace of the
good Queen. 1t is like this: On his
way to his mothers deathbed side,
at a railroad station in London,
waiting to be joined by one. of his
royal sisters, the Prince of Wales
paced up and down on d sad, rainy
English day. A gray-haired man of
so, with bowed head and bleeding
heart, he won the genuine sympathy
of every by stander. Not coming
to his kingdom in the zeal and ardor
and glow Of youth, this old man,
heir to earth's mightiest throne, has
lived long enough TO learn how, in
deed, uneasy lies the head that
wears a crown" and that Kings and
Queens have Atlantean burdens on
their backs and inward sorrows that
break their hearts.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1901-01-29

left alone. Many a night she Q
manned up through the hours wait
ing for favorable news that seldom
came, praying and weeping in her
anguish. Sometimes she was so
out by her vigils that she
would sleep ali day long.
At her advanced age this wore on
Queen Victoria terribly. She slept
badly and her eyesight began to fail.
This was in May last. In July came
the assassination of the King of Italy
1t shocked her inexpressibly. This,
too, told on her health.
Since then she has been further
weighed down by the illness of her
daughter, the Empress Frederick of
Prussia the unexpected death of
her second son, the Duke of Edin-
burgh, and the death of her grand
son, Christian Victory, of ~Schleswig-
HOlstein.

Raleigh Correspondence Charlotte
Observer, 26th Mention was made
yesterday of the fact that the Board
of Trustees of the A. and M. College
here had decided to ask the Legisla-
ture for $4,000 for the two years
1912. Out of the 81 members Is
we're present. They decided to ask
the Legislature for the following ap-
preparations for buildings: $50, 900
for a textile building SIS, 900 for a
chapel; $4,000 for a machine shop,
foundry and forge shop; $40, 900 for
dOrmitOries, and $40, 900 for properly
equipping, furnishing, lighting and
heating the above named buildings.
Of this $40, 900 for furnishing, ETC.,
it is suggested that S., 200 each go to
the textile building, for machinery,
for physical and electrical engineer
ing, and for steam heating and cleo
trio lights. The Legislature is asked

QUEEN VICTORIA DEAD.

King Edward VII. Reigns in Her Stead
Sketch of England's Greatest and Best
loved Queen and of Her Successor.
LONDON, Jan. 23.-Queen Victoria
is dead and Edward VII. reigns. The
greatest event in the memory of this
generation, the most stupendOus
change in existing conditions that
could possibly be imagined, has
taken place quietly, almost gently,
upon the anniversary of the death
of Queen Victoria's father, the Duke
of Kent. The end Of this career,
never equaled by any woman in the
worlds history, came in a simply
furnished room in Osborne House
at 6: 80 yesterday afternoon. This
most respected of all women, living
or dead, lay in a great fOur-posted
bed and made a shrunken atom whose
aged face and figure were a cruel
mockery of the the fair girl who in
1887 began to rule over England.
Owing to her advanced age, the
Queen had been in feeble health for
a long time. A few days ago she
suffered a paralytic stroke.
The new King to-day took the
oath.

MONEY IN COTTON SEED.

The farmers of Mecklenburg cOun-
ty T making a good deal of money
out of the sale of cotton seed and
are coming to a full realization of
the marketable value of an article
that only a few years ago was con
sidered as so much waste material.
The seed from a bale of cotton is
now worth $3.50 Placing the cot
ton crop on a basis of 10, ZOO, 600
bales, any good mathematician, who
has a pencil and a long slip of paper
can figure out the profit that will
come to the planters by the sale of
cotton seed alone.
Mr.. w. B. ChOate, of Steele Creek
township, was on the Charlotte mar
ket yesterday, with the record
breaking load of cotton seed. The
wagon was drawn by four horses
and contained IA bushels. This
weighed net 1920 pounds and Mr..
ChOate got a check for $32.4O.
Mr.. John Cross sent in a load of
124% bushels, which Melted him

BLACKS TO BE DIsFRAN-
CHISED.

BALTIMORE, Jan 26,-Maryland's
Legislature will be convened in extra
session by the Governor late in Feb
ruary or early in March. This &C
ton was determined upon to-day at
a conference of Democratic leaders.
The Governor, who issues the call,
has not yet announced that fact,
but those in the inner circle revealed
his intention to-day. The object,
plainly stated, is to disfranchise
about $4,000 illiterate voters, of
whom 10000 are blacks.
Whether or not President McKin-
ley was moved by improper motives,
he has done a most improper and
unpopular thing in the appointment
of the sons of two Justices Of the
Supreme court to positions in Puerto
Rico at the very moment when the
policy of the administration toward
the island is an issue before the
court. From every point of view, il
was bad policy. Very naturally, il
has aroused suspicion.

DEATH OF ELISHA R A

NEWTON, MASS, Jan. 21.-Prof.
Elisha Gray, of Chicago, who was
associated with Arthur J. Mundy, in
the perfection of a system for sub
marine signalling, died suddenly at
Newtonville last night. Neuralgia
of the heart is assigned as the cause
of death.
Elisha Gray was one of the best
known of the electrical inventors of
the day. He was born in Ohio in
1885.
In 1867 he began his series of in
ventions with a self-adjusting tele-
graph relay and two years later he
established a mandatory of electri-
cal apparatus at Cleveland. He per
fected the typewriting telegraphing,
the telegraph repeater, the tele-
graphic switch and annunciator, and
other devices.
In 1872 he organized the Western
Electric Manufacturing Company,
but retired 1t IN 1874.
He invented his speaking telephone
in 1875 and the telautograph in 1898.
The Naval Appropriation Bill has

ACQUISITION OF TWO MORE ISLANDS


WARRINGTON, Jan. 23.-The enate,
to-day by d vote of 80 to 10 ratified
the treaty with Spain for the acquisi-
ton of the islands of Sibutu and
CagOyan, Sulu, of the Philippine
group. These islands are outside the
lines described by the Paris treaty
and the treaty provides for the pay
ment of 800, 900 for them. The de
bate over the treaty in the executive
session was participated in by
Senator's Lodge and Chandler, in
behalf of the treaty, and Senators
Bacon, Money and Pettigrew in OPP
position.
Senator Lodge, speaking for the
committee on foreign relations said
that the treaty was made necessary
by the failure to include the islands
of Sibutu and CagOyan in the Origi-
nal negotiations and that it was nee
essary t % acquire them to prevent
Germany's getting possession Of
them. Their acquisition by any for
eign power would, he said, be awak-
w..rl Tor the United States and
should be prevented before it was
too late.
The opposing Senators replied that
the land Was worthless to the United
States and added that as there was
not d harbOr on the coast of any Of
these there could be no object in any
other cOuntry's taking them. They
also charged that as the islands are
in the Sulu group, the population is
poIygamous and also that slavery ex-
lists on the islands.
Senator Pettigrew said the new
acquisitions were neare the Island
of BorneO than to any of the other
islands Of the Pacific group, and he
argued that if we are to purchase
Cagoyan and Sibutu for the defense
of our existing possessions, we might
soon expect to hear of the necessity
of purchasing BorneO for the prOtec-
ton Of Cagoyan and Sibutu. a two
thirds vote was necessary to ratify,
and the friends Of the treaty had
none to spare, the vote standing
80 to 10.

Captain Swift Galloway of Snow

and that the line from Fremont to
Raleigh has been located.
Englehardt, in Hyde county, is the
deep water terminus Of the road,

that the V~anderbilts, who own the

THE NEW KING.

THE NEW MNG.
The following extracts from d
sketch of Victoria's successor we
clip from the Washington Post. 1t
passes over some we'll known phases
of King Edwards characteristics
strict attention to clothes and fash
ion, his "wild oats" of other days Che
is now a man of sixty, ETC., etc.
We quote:
Albert Edward, known as the
Prince of Wales, for more than half
Of the nineteenth century, and who
will be recorded in history as King
Edward VII, was born at Bucking-
ham Palace on November 9, 1871,
amid the booming of cannon and the
greatest furry of bishops, church
d~ignitaries, royalty, and statesmen.
The first child of Victoria and
Prince Albert, was a girl (now
the Dowager Empress of Germany
Bnd therefore debarred from Access
sion to the throne upon the birth of
a son. The entire British nation
was exceedingly anxious that the
second child should be a boy.
HIS MARRIAGE.
In 1868 announcement was made
of the engagement of Prince Albert
Edward to the Princess Alexandra,
tee eldest daughter of the King of
Denmark. She was three years
younger than her sutton, exceedingly
beautiful and accomplished. The
marriage was celebrated in Windsor
Chapel, on March 10, 1868, with
elaborate rites. The entire British
Empire rejoiced, and Lord Alfred
TennysOn, who had then only re-
Gently attained the poet laureateship,
wrote GA Welcome to Alexandria, "
in honor of the event. Popularity
soon attached to the princess, whose
grace and beauty, as we'll as her
virtues and amiability, have en-
deared to all classes OF the British
public the new Queen Alexandra.
ALBERT EDWARDS FAMILY.
AS the result of the marriage of
Albert Edward to the stem of the
royal family of Denmark, four chill
dren have been born. His eldest on,
Albert Victor Christian Edward,
Duke of Clarence and Avondale,
was BORN January 8, 1864, and died
in January, 1892. The second and
