good are miserable; and then he
argued from reason and from
scripture that a compensation
would be made to both parties in
the next life. Emerson was as
tonlshed that the congregation
took no offense at this doctrine,
which he believed to be as often
sive and as wicked as the clergy
man would have held his critical
hearer to be. What was the
import of this teaching?" says
Emerson. What did the preach
er mean by saying that the good
are miserable in the present life?
Was it that house and lands, Of
fees, wine, horses, dress, luxury,
are had by unprincipled men,
whilst the saints are poor aud de-
spised; and that a compensation
is to be made to these last here
after, by giving them the like
qualifications another day-bauk
stock and doubloons, venison aud
champagne? This must be the
compensa ion intended; for what
else? Is 1t that they are to have
leave to pray and praise? to love
and serve men? Why, that they
can do now. The legitimate. in

An Interview With Weaver.
CAsheville Citizen.)


| Professor Anderson Weaver, of WeaV-
erville College,; vino was sentenced by
Justice Ware to pay a fine of twenty
five dollars or be imprisoned thirty days
for refusing repeatedly to be vaccinat-
ed, after he had been exposed to small
pox, and who chose Imprisonment rather
than pay this fine or any fine, was seen
by The Citizen yesterday in the county
Jail.
Prof Weaver was found in the front
cell on the third floor of the Jail and was
writing, when he was asked why he did
not apply for a writ of habeas corpus
as he intimated at the time of the SEN
tence he would do so as soon as he was
put in Jail. He was in a cheerful mood
in fact, he expressly said he was-and
told Sheriff Reed and Deputy r. Nj.
Jarvis that he was alright and that
they had done everything for him that
he could wish. He was lying on his
bed where he generally stays, for he is a
cripple. and although only about twenty
eight years old, has had paralysis and
cannot walk without crutches and had
just finished reading a letter from a
Cincinnati physician who said that vac
cinatiOn was q fraud.
In reply to a question why he did not
proceed to test the law or seek to be re-
lieved of the sentence, and what his
views were about vaccination, he said:
1T is a good principle of two sorts of
vermin to choose the smaller. Take this
for what it is worth. My refusal to be
vaccinated is a matter of principle
Many people are unable to stand vac
cination, because of the injurious effect
it would have on their health had double
curvature of the spine and paralysis
besides other troubles, it is not for these
reasons that / submitted to Imprisonment
rather than be vaccinated. but because
of principle. l advised the students of
WeaverVille, who were arrested like
myself, to be vaccnated rather than go
to Jail l do not intend to apply for
habeas corpus and will stick out my
thirty days sentence. My arrest is hav
ing preclselv the effect l intended it to
have, that is, has stopped the medical
board from their course in forcing every
body. regardless of circumstances, to
submit to vaccination. They see that
people are now thinking what this arbi-

DELAYED BY HIGH WATER.
Heavy Rains an Interruption to Traffic, Tor
rents Fall at Durham
Especial to News and Observer.

Especial to News and Observer)
Durham, N. c., March 23-Rain fell
IL torrents and almost continuously from
Saturday until this morning, and the
water courses in the county reached a
higher point than for a year or more
1t was reported early this morning that
water was going over the railroad bridges
across Neuse river, some twelve miles
from Durham. The Oxford and Clarks-
Vile train, which makes the round trip
from here to Keysyille each day, left this
morning by way of Greensboro and Rich
mond. 1t came back over the old run
tonight, however, reaching here cOnsid-
erably off schedule time. While the wa
ter was above the bridge this morning
it receded and left the bridge intact.
The Durham and Northern train, from
here to Henderson, transferred passen-
gers at the bridge over Neuse.
So far as can be learned none of the
county bridges are gone. The county
bridge at Cox &. Christians mill is
slightly out of plumb but is not dam
aged to any great extent. This is new
bridge and probably accounts for its
not being gone The water went above
the bridges in various parts of the coun-
ty.
In the city there was considerable dam
age done. At the Traction Company park
the dam to the swimming pool was
washed away and the pond is gone. At
several places inside the city limits the
streets were badly washed. The new
sewer and gas bitches gave way and
bad holes were made at several places.

DEFECTS IN THE CUBAN TREATY.
They are SO Grave That New Convention May

Washington, March 21.-The defects in
the Cuban treaty indicated in yesterdays
press dispatches We're discussed at tne
State Department to-day by Secretary
Hay and number Of Senators, including
Chairman Cullom of the Senate Commit
tee on Foreign Relations There was 10
disposition to minimize the extent of the
complications, and in fact a fresh one
was developed during the conferences.
II was pointed out by one Senator that
the provision, this treaty shall not
take effect until the same shall have
been approved by the Congress. +" required
such action, not only on the part of cur
own Congress, but by the Cuban Cen
gress as Well and this II would. perhaps,
be difficult to secure, for the opposition
Is much stronger in the Cuban lower
house than in the Senate Some of the
Senators who called bluntly stated that
the treaty would surely be defeated IL
it again came before the United States
Congress. The officials of the State De-
partment have not yet given up hope OF
being able to straighten out the tangle
but it appears more probable to-day than
ever that new treaty will be required.

MONU MENr TO RALEIGH
Series of Tableaux.. to be Given by Winston

Especial to the News and Observer
Winston Salem. N. c., March 23.-One
of the most worthy as we'll as noteworthy
undertakings has just been set on foot
by those two noble and indefatigable
workers, Mrs Lindsay Patterson and
Mrs. E. A. Ebert. This is nothing less
than to give a Sir Walter Raleigh en-
tertainment for the purpose of raising
funds for the monument which it is pro-
posed to erect to his memory in the
Capitol square in the city that bears
his honored name
The ladies are preparing a series of
tableaux representing the most salient
and striking events in the life of Raj
eigh These will be rendered by the
most prominent and efficient members
of the Twin City social world. Along
with the tableaux will be choice recita-
tions from Sir Walter, together with
music and songs of the Elizabethian era,
the original scores of which are in the
British museum. Costumes will be got
ten from Baltimore and the most artistic
taste and dramatic effect will be COM
bined in the selection of scenes and the
arrangement of the details.
1t is safe to say nothing so splendid
in effect. so ambitious in scope has ever
been attempted even in this enterpris-
ing town, and the skill and experience
of the ladies who are behind this un-
dertaking warrant the belief that it will
be the most splendid pageant ever given
in North Carolina
1t is the purpose of the ladies to give
the entertainment at the Armory about
