ed, it willinjure the party with the
great mass of voters.
Sworn testimony hasdemonstrated
that many outrages were committed,
but no political party can afford to
be placed in the attitude of decrying
the soldiers of the country, who are
simply obeying instructions from
their superiors. There is further
proof that the cruelty and savagery
of the Filipinos transcends ordinary
belief. They have resorted to every
artifice and every trick to betray and
multilate and murder our soldiers.
It would be strange indeed if at times
the soldiers did not retaliate. But
for the more monstrous acts of cruel
ty on the part of isolated bands of
our soldiets, acting under orders,
there cannot be any excuse.
Just in what shape the Philip
pines bill may become law, there is
no use in guessing; it is almost GER
tain not to be enacted as it passed
the Senate.

Yesterday morning District At

traced to his office where they dis
appeared. An investigation was
made and some of the packages of
jewelry found in his safe. These he
claimed to have pawned from a
peddler.

FRUIT BY THE CAR LOAD.

The greeting which will be ex-
tended to the visiting Knights, fami-
lies and friends of the Pythian hosts
on reaching San Francisco next Au-
gust will give them some idea that
they have not made the trip in vain.
Before reaching the city they will be
met by a delegation of California
knights, who will bear greetings to
them from the local brotherhood,
and direct the visitors to the ferry
landing, where they will be taken
by the reception committee to the
grand nave of the ferry depot. That
room is $50 feet in length and Is feet
in height. A conception of the vast
ness of that hall may be inferred from
the fact that two car loads of fruit
piled in one corner of it can scarcely
be seen from the opposite end. That
room will contain the information
bureau, besides an abundance of
CallfOrnia's choicest fruits, flowers
and wines. To all of which the visi-
tors will be welcome. No attempt
at display will be made here, only
samples will be distributed. Located
in the same building are the splendid
exhibits of the California State Board
of Trade, containing samples from
the different counties of all the pro-
ducts of California. Here is also
the instructive exhibit of the Cali
fornia State Mining Bureau and of
the WOrld-famous Alaskan exhibit,
containing samples of every conciva-
BILE article produced or used by the
dwellers of Alaska.
No wonder crowds are already
planning to take advantage of the
low railroad rates and go to Califor-
MIA during August. It is the chance
of a lifetime to see the great West
and the marvels of this Pacific
Coast.

everywhere. The negro ought, as
much SO as possible, SO situate him
self as to raise his children at home.
A child raised up under the care
and love and control of it's parents,
has more love and obedience for them
than one raised otherwise.
Of all occupations, I have chosen
the farm. AS rule the farm makes
the man just in the same proportion
that the man makes the farm. There
is not branch of life in this country
which needs an educated husband,
wife or mother more than the farm.
I would advise every colored parent
that possibly can, to go to the farm.
If you cannot get a big farm get a
little one. If you cannot buy farm
you can rent or lease one. Make all
you can, save all you can, and stick
close to your business, and you will
get there after a while.
Our present custom of living is too
extravagant !; we will never succeed
until this state Of living is broken up.
The colored race of North Ccrolina
alone spend four hundred thousand
dollars each year for pleasure and
other unnecessaries of life. There
must be line of distinction drawn
in our churches, schools and general
society at any cost, or the negro
cause will prove to be lost cause. I
claim that it is a great mistake to
support our preachers and churches
by taking up public collections. It
opens a mighty wide door for the
devil to come in and purchase for
himself just such seat Or position as
he sees fit to occupy.
A hint to the wise is sufficient.

May Ia, from Rangoon, said that a
lifeboat belonging to the steamer
Camorta, overdue at that port from
Madras, has been picked up in the

PIKEVILLE HIGH SCHOOL,
The Closing Exercises Last Friday
Were Interesting.

Were Interesting.
| DEAR ARGUs:-One of the most
interesting and enjoyable occasions
that ever took place at Pikeville was
the closing exercises of the Pikeville
High School last Thursday, taught
by Miss Lucy Warters, of LAGRANGE.
Three years ago, when she first be-
gan to teach there, no one even so
much as dreamed that such school
could Or ever would exist at Pike
vile, but with her indomitable en-
ergy she went to work in earnest un-
der the most adverse circumstances,
and has built up a school of which
any town larger than Pikeville might
feel justly proud.
Thursday morning dawned bright
and beautiful, and at an early hour
the people of the community and
surrounding country, of all condi-
tions in life, began to drive in town
and in a short while there was quite
a large crowd.
About II O'Clock, after the large
crowd had assembled at the school
house, which is located in beautiful
oak grove in the northern portion of
town, Mr.. E. D. Ham, one of Pike
ville's brightest and most promising
young men, in an easy, graceful
manner and in eloquent and fitting
words, introduced Col. Joseph E.
Robinson, of Goldsboro, the orator of
the day, and for the space of about
one hour Col. Robinson held the
closest attention of his audience. His
address throughout was replete with
beautiful thoughts eloquently Tex
pressed. We have heard several who
were present express themselves in
regard to it as being the best and
most beautiful and appropriate adj
dress for such an occasion they had
ever listened to. 1t made very fa-
vorable and lasting impression on all
whose good fortune it was to be pre-
sent.
At the close Of Col. Robinson's adj
dress he called upon our energetic
and efficient county superintendent
of education Mr.. E. t. Atkinson, who
always knows what to say on such
occasion, and how to say it, for
speech. Mr.. Atkinson responded in
bic own cbo ra ct ori ctio oIoouan+ opI
happy style, and made a short and
stirring speech which was well re-
ceived and roundly applauded.
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Atkin-
sons speech the crowd was dismiss
ed for dinner.
In the afternoon the attraction for
the crowd was game of baseball be-
tween the Pikeville and Howelltown
teams, and after playing nine inn
ings the score stood 90 to 4 in favor
of Pikeville.
About 1880 o'clock the crowd as
sembled again at the school house to
witness the last of the exercises. The
program consisted of dialogues, reci-
tations and declamations and all of
the students played their respective
parts in an admirable and highly
creditable manner, showing in an
eminent degree the, careful training
Of their teacher.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 16.-Patrick
Gilday, president Of the Central Penn
sylvania bituminous district of the
United Mine Workers of America,
wLo came here to consult President
Mitchell on a matter local to this dis
of the Associated Press yesterday,
said in part that there are $4,000 soft
coal miners in his district and every
one of them is taking a deep inter.
est in the struggle now going on. in
this region. On the second day of the
strike Mr.. Gilday sent out the instruc'
items to every checkweighman and
pit committeeman at the mines in his
district to prevent the shipment OF
soft coal into anthracite territory, and
thus far, he said, very little coal
from his district had taken the place
o: anthracite. None was being shipped
except the nominal supply.
When asked regarding the feeling
in his territory as to a general strike
to help the hard coal miners, Mr.. Gil
day said:
Our men will do whatever Presi
dent Mitchell says. They can have
our financial support, and if Mr.
Mitchell sees fit to ask our men to lay
down their picks they will de il
promptly. l do not believe, however
there will be general strike of the
soft coal miners, because the anthra
cite men are going to win without it.
President Gilday's mission here
was to get President MitchelPs con
sent to continue the strike against
the Sonman Shaft Coal company, neal
Portage, Pa, and also the financia
support Of the national organization
The strike at that place was inaugu
rated on April 16, because the com
rany would not recognize the union
and sign the wage scale. About 15C
men were involved.
The strike at athe Bloomington
mines, near Philipsburg, Pa, has been
settled and the men will return tc
work today. Five hundred men struck
there last Tuesday because four men
would not join the union. The four
men have quit work.

and killed at Coatesville, Pa, 40 miles
vest of here, by Harry N. Ricer, OF
New Castle, Pa, who was also killed
by a bullet from his revolver while
struggling with another woman for
