THOMASB. REEDS CONDITION
An ATTACK OF NAUSEA AT I
O'CLOCK THIS MORNING.

UnfavOrabIe symptom Follows a Day
in Which an Encouraging Improve
ment Was Noted-In Ills Weakened
Condition the Attack Has Depress-
ing Effect Upon the Patient.
Washington, Dec. 6, 2 a. m.-Thomas
B. Reed, ex-speaker of the house, after
a day in which a slight improvement
was the chief feature, suffered an at
tack of nausea shortly after 1 o'clock
this morning. In his weakened condi-
tion this had a depressing effect upon
him. DR.. Bishop, who was attending
Mr.. Reed, left the hotel to consult with
DR.. Gardner regarding the new devel-
opment, but he remarked as he left the
hotel that re would not have left Mr.
Reeds beside had there been any
alarming change in his patients condi-
tion.
Friday night the following bulletin
was issued by the physicians
"10:30 p. NAT present time Mr..
Reed is resting comfortably. Owing to
unavoidable excitement this afternoon
there was slight elevation of tempera-
ture. This has subsided and his tenn

For precautionary reasons, the physi
clans have on hand quantity of saline
solution and tank of oxygen, but the
Use of neither has been resorted to.
The oxygen may be used during to-
night If found necessary, said DR.. Card
ner, before leaving the Arlington hotel
IT'S purpose, he said, was to oxydize the
blood so as to eliminate the poison
which may have developed as result
of the uraemic disorders. DR.. Bishop,
DR.. Gardner's assistant, will remain in
charge of the patient during the night
and, If it is found his symptoms re-
quire it, will make use of the oxygen.

Only when Roth sidss Have Pre-
sented. All the Testimony They Wish
TO ofer.
Scranton, Pa, Dec 5.-The lawyers
for the mine workers continued to call
witnesses to-day before the strike ar
bitration commission to testify to the
alleged blacklisting methods pursued
by several coal companies in refusing
to re-employ strikers who took a more
or less prominent part in the affairs of
the United Mine Workers union during
the recent suspension. All OF them
said they had been employed before the
strike, but were refused their old places
after the strike was ended. In most
cases, according to the testimony, no
satisfactory reason was given why they
were not taken back Two blind men,
who were also otherwise badly injured
by underground explosions, were pre-
sented as living evidence of the dan
gers in the mines.
When the commission adjourned for
the day Rev. ]. J. Curran, the Roman
Catholic clergyman of Wilkesbarre, who
took prominent part in the miners
cause during the strike, was on the
witness. stand. Only one session will
be held tomorrow, adjournment to be
taken at / D. m.
Nothing could be learned to-day with
reference to the reported efforts at a
settlement outside the commission.
None of the attorneys for either side
professed to know anything about any
contemplated move in that direction.
Wayne MacVeagh, who is representing
the Erie railroad coal properties, was
the only attorney in position to know
who would talk about the matter. He
left here, accompanied by Commission
er Parker, at 3:35 o'clock this after
noon, over the Lackawanna road, for
New York.
The testimony now being presented
to the commission does not concern Mr..
MacVeaghs clients to an extent which
makes his presence necessary.
Mr.. MacVeagh before leaving stated
to the correspondent of the Associated
Press that a majority of the operators
thought it better to postpone all efforts
to reach, by amicable conferences,
basis for the award of the commission
until both sides had presented all the
testimony they wished to offer. Wheth-
er the efforts to reach such a basis will
be then resumed can only be- decided
after the testimony is closed.
Mr. MacVeagh added that he person.

North Carolina easily ranks among the
first State in the South; not so much on
account of the volume of lumber manu-
featured and shipped from the State, but
likewise on account of tbs variety of
woods and multiplicity of wood products
made and manufactured within her bor-
ders; her close proximity to all the great
lumber centers of the Northern and
Eastern States, and the transpGrtati ton
facilities by water and rail to all i'm
port ant points. In point OF value North
Carolina pine comes first, long leaf yell
low pine second, and cypress third, fol-
low in turn by the hard woods, white

HOW TOBACCO GROWING PAYS.
SOME SELECTED EXAMPLES OF FARMERS
MONEY WEED

Much money has been made in North
Carolina growing bright tobacco. The
farmers of Granville Person, Caswell and
adjacent sections sold the best of their
crops for from $3.50 to SO per pound in
the seventies and eighties, and it was
no uncommon thing for farmers to get
twenty and thirty cents a pound, making
from SIS TO 500 net per acre. and crops
often sell from 5000 to $500 per acre.
Afterwards there came a slump in the
price of tobacco, but the crop of 1891
brought better prices and many farmers
made good prices on their tobacco crop.
The State makes the highest priced
blight tobacco grown in the world and it
is grown in more than thirty counties. 1t
is estimated that the average crop is
about 100000 900 pounds, but there are no
exact statistics and no method has yet
been adopted to secure correct reports.
The most prosperous agricultural sec
ton Of the State is the section where to-
bacco was made in 1901. 1t costs from
$50 TO $40 per acre Uaking various esti-
mates) to produce tobacco. the average
cost being about $3.50. When farmer
sells his crop from a single acre, which
has often been done, for 5000, the profit
is clearly seen.
SOME PRICES IN 1896
Here are some figures at which farmers
sold tobacco in 1896:
G. w. Dickerson, Of Wilson county. sold
his crop at an average of 1886 per acre.
Jesse Brake, of Edgecombe, sold 81
pounds al AZ cents per pound.
G. A. Robertson. of Martin. sold the
product of Ave acres for $62750, giving
him clear profit of $500.
John r. Miller, of Craven, sold all his
crop at an average of - cents a pound,
getting 40 cents for the best.
]. ]. Hale. of Wilson county, sold 10000
pounds at an average of % cents a pound
for the whole crop.
F. NJ. Smith, of Pitt. raised his crop at
q cost of $45 per acre and sold it for $3.50
per acre.

POULTRY BRINGS PROFIT.
AN INDUSTRY THAT HAS PROVEN PROFITABLE IN NORTH
CAROLINA WORTHY DE GREAT CONSIDERATION.
BY r. L. Simmons, Daddie of Poultry Fairs

Poultry raising is a charming diversion
to the monotonous country life. 1t calls
us into the healthful morning air; it
brings out the quality of foresight and
patience, and brightens many lonely
hours of the loneliest life. 1t fur
nishes us with delicacies that rival the
repast of kings.
The poultry industry of North Caro-
lima is yet in its infancy, for but a few
years have passed since it was consid-
cred by most farmers and business men
a small affair, and was left by them to
be attended to by their wives and chill
dren, if indeed it was attended to at all.
But what a change! Now our most
progressive farmers ae beginning to real
ize the Importance of poultry culture
and are giving it their special attention.
And our business men, too, are falling
into line.
In 1883. when I first began to raise
poultry, | ordered three settings of eggs
from a breeder in Illinois, paying him
$3.50 per thirteen for them. Ny neigh
bors laughed at me; said l was fool;
that they would sell me Just as good
eggs for ten cents a dozen" That was
the beginning of fancy poultry raising in
the western part of North Caolina. 1t
was not long before my neighbors wanted
to swap" eggs with me. / told them
they had Gust as good and as l paid
$50 per setting for my eggs 1 could not
swap. and that if they wanted any of
my stock they would pay me $3.50 per
thirteen for my eggs. .'Oh, that is too
much. they said. Eggs are selling at s
