Will Meet in Charleston.

Major 7. R. Robertson, member
of the council of Charlotte ard major
Of the 1st North Carolina State troops,
arrived in Charleston Thursday and is
stopping at the Argyle. Major
Robertson's mission in the city is to
arrange for Charlotte Day at the En-
position during North Carolina Week.
The date will probably be April S.
but Major Robertson will confer with
the Exposition officials and date will
be officially set Tor the occasion.
Major Robertson, who is a Mystic
Shriner of high degree. is also an old
South Carolinian, having been born
in Winnsboro. and he has many
friends in Charleston. He says that
North Carolina is coming to Charleston
en- masse during North Carolin a Week
the moving cause for the emigration
OF the TarheelS being not so much the
Exposition as the fact that the news
has gone abroad that the Governor
OF North Carolina and the Governor
Of South Carolina will both be in
Charleston at that time and everyone
in the State is determined to be on
hand when they meet and see what
they say to each other.

African Cotton.

The negroes Of the TuSkcgee Normal
and Industrial institute who were en-
gagged the latter part OF 1900 by the
German government to teach the na-
tives Of Togoland, German West
Africa. how to grow cotton have &C
cording to the report Of the colonial
committee, succeeded in producing cot
ton which is graded on the Bremen
exchange above American midd!ing.
The Tuskegee negroes have demon
strated that the land in Togoland is
suitable for cotton Of which there is
great abundance. The only obstacle
to the commercial utilization of this
product is transportation and especial
ly getting the bales to the coast. The
colonial committee has sent an expe-
dition Of engineers to survey Tor a
railroad from the coast town OF LONE
to Palime. in the interior.

An ExDensiye. Telegram.


Punctuation, which used to be re-
garded as very essential part Of
composition, does not receive the
same attention to-day which was for
merly given to it. There is, how
ever. one man who, if he were asked,
would be likely to concede it's i'm
portance.
He is wealthy business man of
New York, man of large liberality,
and very generous to his family.
During his absence from the city his
wife desired to make purchase Of
laces amounting in value to $4,000.
The sum was large, and, although she
knew his generosity, she decided to
telegraph to him for his sanction
before buying.
In reply to her telegram of inquiry
came the answer: mo price too
high" Touched by such libcrality,
and stimulated by the cheering mes
sage. she proceeded to buy rot only
the laces which she had IN mind. but
other goods to the value OF $4,000.
When the husband returned ard
his wife showed him her purchases
ne asked TO see the telegram which
she had received 1t was something
of surprise to him, bnt he said
nothing. What he had written was:
