OUR GREENSBORO BUDGET.

Correspondence of The Messenger)
Greensboro. n. c., August s.
Superintendent of Public Instruction
Joyner made an educational speech at
Asheboro yesterday, spent the night
with his family here and went to Ora
ham to deliver an address today.
Mr.. Washington Handley, a native
of Guilford. but now one of the most
prominent men of California, spent the
night here going to the Friends meet
ing at High Point.
Mrs. Mamie Jones, the Danville wo-
man who has been in Jail here several
days for clipping to Greensboro with
Nick Carter, her unlawful husband, was
released from Jail today. Her brother
in-law, a farmer near Danville, came
over and fixed her bond. The couple
will leave for Danville tonight.
Solicitor A. l.. Brooks has returned
from Hillsboro, where he attended
Orange county court. The most inter-
esting matter, he said, which came to
the attention of the grand jury was
a change of swindling brought against
j. A. Andrews, engineer of the Emo Cot
ton Mills. 1t is estimated that the
company lost fully a thousand dollars
as a result Of these ~swindling opera
lions.
An extensive business is done by the
Pomona Terra Gotta Company in
making and selling we'll tubing. 1t is
found to be much the cheaper and bet
ter means of walling a well. The tub
ing is "a inches in diameter, and after
being cemented prevents anything from
working into the well, as is the case
with the best rock walled or brick lined
wells. Greensboro has over a thousand
wells thus protected, and the demand
for b tiles from all over the country
keeps the company busy day and night
to keep up with orders.
A new candy manufactury has been
opened up here by Mr.. Charles Boyst,
a former resident, but recently from
Missouri. He will carry on a large
wholesale and retail business, and a

welcomed by their old friends.
d. A. Kirkpatrick, was this morning
given the contract for making zoe, 900
b-ick to be used in the construction of
the new students building at the State
Normal and Industrial college, and has
gone Immediately to work making
them.

been doubled in capacity. A new gas
machine having four times the capacity
of the old one is being installed.

all, is the addition to the Chemical
laboratory. Here a DON is set apart
and fitted for the Study of physical
chemistry. DR.. Mills is at Cornell this
summer studying apparatus and appli-
ances devoted 20 this field.
1t may be of interest to state that

gests, is the study of the border lands
of Physics and Chemistry. 1t is a new
field. The result of Investigations here

Wanted a Democratic Ward.

A Philadelphia recently had occa-
sion to visit the chief physician of the
asylum for the insane at Columbus, O..
and was shown through h institution
by the physician and the superinten-
dent, who told him many interesting
anecdotes about the various inmates,
SAYS the Philadelphia Times. One, an
IIrishman, from SLeubenville, that state,
had been brought to the asylum at a
time when it was filled almost to its
capacity; and the superintendent, turn
ing to one of the physicians, had
asked:
Doctor, what ward would we better
Iput this new man into?"
The Irishman, recognizing that he
was the new man referred to, spoke up
and said:
"Indade. an I carrie little what
ward yes put me into so long as it
Ibez Dimmocratic,"

Thousands and tens of thousands of
farmers have taken advantage of the
use of silage. Our ensilsgs machin-
cry has been oPer ated BY these men

waste of coarse folders which . en-
tailed by feeding in the whole state.
A conservative estimate places the
loes in feeding value Of corn fodder
at from 50 TO 80 per cent, when il b
