he claims he received when he was

by this means having his happiness and
manhood destroyed for life.
+ The Woodmen deny that the goat
riding is in the ritual, but acknowledge
it is used in a side degree. The goat
was in court. and it is wooden one
mounted on two wheels with handle
at the back, the seat being covered
with sheepskin. Mitchell declares he
was roughly handled on the goat but
the witnesses for the defence say not,
while Mitchell ayers that he was bucked
and Jumped numerically.
1t was merry scene in the court
room when man was put on the goat
and a mock imitation given. Preachers
and others testified that they had ridden
the goat" and were not injured. Be
sides this evidence was introduced to
show that Mitchell's sickness came from

Government troops, numbering 1900 men

Mt. Airy. News.
The two big issues of the News and
Observer-the Charleston Exposition
edition and Ten Years of Progress of
North arolina''-eclipses anything in
journalism so far attempted in the South,
and is regarded by the profession as a
wonder. Mr.. Josephus Daniels is all
pluck and energy and never fails when
he undertakes to carry out a difficult
task. The editions of his paper before

much hard work and lots of brain. The
