NEW USE FOR REFINED PARAF.
 FINE WAX.

A new and important use for Refined Paraftine wax seems to have been dis covered by prominent resident of Ohio, living near Lancaster, who had two trees badly damaged by storm, one being a maple and the other an apple. In each case g large limb was broken down from the trunk, but still attach ed to it. The limbs were propped up and fastened securely with straps, very much as a broken leg might be fasten- ed with splints, and then melted re- fined wax poured into and over all the cracks. The Surgical operation" was entirely successful. The Paraff1ne pre- vented the escape of the sap, kept out the rain and moisture which would have routed the trees, prevented the depredations of insects, and the limbs seem thus far to be perfectly re- attached to the trees.

 Alabama. under it the voters of the state have just been registered. As result the state has taken the ballot from fifty thousand negro vo- ters and the white voters have been in creased nearly eighty thousand over the white vote in 1900. The total registration as so far reported is about l8O,OOO. and of this number there are only about twenty-five hundred ne- groes. In one county with a negro population of over fifty thousand there were only forty-seven negroes who were made voters. In another county with over thirteen thousand negroes there was only one black man who registered. When the vote of the black man is taken out of politics it will be interesting to see how the white men of Alabama will conduct themselves. Not having the black men to shoot at and burn they may take to shooting at one another. In tha. case the colored man may get some good out of the political dodge after all.

The Prof II. L. Bruner of
 Coming Butler University, h.
 Man. dianapolis, has been making prophecy of what the coming man of future centuries will be. Among other thing he says, that phy- sical development will be taught in the public schools and we shall have better athletes than the old Greek models. The coming man will live longer, he will lose the floating ribs, appendicitis will be unknown because people will be born without an appen- dix, the foot will have only four toes, his sense of sight and hearing will be more delicate, he will have a larger brain; and the sex of children will be predeterminable. All this may be so but we have had our five toes for a long while and probably people have died with appendicitis for good many ages before they knew the name of the thing. The coming man may be bet ter in some respects, but it will be a cold day before they are any great changes in the human body. So long as people marry whom they please. the human race will not be bred to any particular type of man or women. In all probability the coming man will | be pretty much like ourselves, only that we hope that he will be better man.

Killing The Department of
 Bugs. Agriculture has is- sued circular describing how the ob- jectionable insects in a house were gotten rid of in short order. The method was to fill the house with the fumes of prussic acid gas and as a house in Washington was fumigated for three hours it was found that all the bugs succumbed to the fumes. Thus roaches bed bugs and all other household pests were found dead after the three hours fumigation. AS the prussic acid is d deadly poison for men as well as bugs it needs an expert to manage it. Still with the advance of science perhaps the housewife will be spared fall house-cleaning by an oc- casional Immigration during the sum- mer.

 Women. Paris the facts were brought out that there is regular trade in girls and young women who are by false representations and prom ises lured from their homes and under the guise of servants transported to various South American countries, to be used for the most vile purposes. The business is as well organized as the slave trade used to be, and many respectable girls, particularly from Italy, have been lured from their homes to their destruction. So much interest was aroused by the revelations made at the congress that another meeting is to be held in October to de- wise means for the stopping of the in- iquity. It is said that, from Genoa alone over thousand innocent girls have been sent out to South America annually. The Jewish rabbis periodi- cally warn their people of the evil, for the Jewish maidens are the most sought after by these inhuman women hunters.

and Lloyd Garrison started the fight for
Abolition which resulted in Emancipation.
IL African civilization depends upon be-
ing taught by American Africans, the So
cieties that were sending negroes to Lii
IBERIA were showing better results than
have been shown by Emancipation. But,
is it the mission of the negro to ~civilize
Africa? And if SO, has the set time
come for the work to be undertaken?
The celebration of Emancipation day
in the South yesterday was general, the
speeches were in good taste, and the spirit
was excellent. So far as North Carolina
is concerned, there is good feeling be-
tween the races, the negroes are doing
well here, are well treated, and they
have no disposition to go 10 Africa, and
there is no disposition, upon the part OK
the whites, to urge their going.

HOW MUCH SHALL WI CELE-
BRATE?

The bill introduced by Senator Sim
mons providing for a $3.50 appropria-
ton for the celebration on Roanoke Is
land is good. Perhaps it would be Just
as easy to get $3.50, 900 if it can be shown
that SO much can be ~judiciously expended
to promote the purposes of the celebra-
ton. Even this latter sum is very mod
est compared with the great sums which
will be asked Of Congress by the States
which propose celebrations for 1908 and
1907, though historically speaking we
have more to celebrate than any Of them.
We nave a much shorter time to get ours
up and it has not been proposed to make
it especially commercial, therefore we are
asking for much smaller sums.
In view Of the great celebrations to be
held within this decade it may not be
very difficult to get through the bill for
our appropriation: Celebrations are in the
air. States are yieing with each other In
making preparations for them. They are
recognized as among the best means OF
directing public attention 20 the States
in which they are held, and giving the
world an opportunity Of seeing their nat
ural advantages.
1t would seem. that If we are to have
a great educational and historical exhi-
bition and if We deserve 1t, We should be
able to wisely expend $4,000 or even
$3.50, 900, and in addition thereto our own
people should be willing to give and to
do whatever may be required Of them.
These columns are open for suggestions
as to scope and plans and the best means
for e~ffectuating what has already been
suggested. Valuable suggestions have
already been made and others we know
Of are being considered. 1t is a matter in
which the whole people ought to take a
nend. Rightly celebrated the event means
mere for North Carolina, and especially
for the Eastern section of it, than ally
thing which has happened in her bord-
ers in a generation. We see no reason
why the principal exhibition building
should not De erected as an investment,
her sister States and great educational
institutions OF the country as well as the
various historical societies can be induced
to make exhibits in keeping with the
spirit and purpose Of the celebration, al
admission fee would be a matter of course
and cheerfully paid. The exhibition build
ings should be kept open for a month
afte the public exercises of the celebra-
tion.

If the figures could be obtained showing
the immense quantity Of canned goods
that is shipped into North Carolina, the
number would be far up into the thou
