There is little girl somewhere
Who many years ago
Occasioned me some sleepless nights
For twenty days or
Around her house by night and day
I could not choose but tarry,
She the sweetest of her sex
That girl did not marry.
She handed out your mournful friend

It shook your friend from stern to bow
Yet he recovered rarely.
She had me pounded to a pulp
And worn to just FRAGILE
Before she handled out that cold
And icy razzle dazzle;
But somehow survived the shock,

And ate, I know twas not the thing,
That night fairish dinner.

Queer Letters to Santa Claus

"Explorers who have failed for so
long a time to find the north pole
might get it's location from the
Santa Claus letters sent to the dead
letter Office" says Washington
special. Confding Youngsters write
letters by the hundred to their patron
saint every year and scores Of them
address him at the north pole. From
the time the first frost appears until
after Christmas appeals to Santa
Claus, laborlously written by baby
hands drift into the dead letter office
They come from the big cities and
the backwoods, and from every section
Of the country. On a number Ct
occasions the government has received
requests from wealthy people asking
for the Santa Claus letters Of TIE
cities in which they live, but posta
| regulations forbid the granting O
such requests. The rule that the
contents of letters shall not be made
public is enforced at the dead lette1
office as strictly in the case of a child

Fuel Experiments

Hudsonite: Clate Tinan, of KIM
ball, and the Howard Democrat mans
story about their experiments in re-
gard to burning ashes seem to be
diametrically opposite. Clate's efforts
put the furnace to salking and near
ly froze up Clate's better half and the
hired girl, while the Democrat mans
experiment proved success and he
is burning the same ashes over and
over again and won't have to spend a
cent all winter long for coal. This
according to his own version, too, and
we though we had found bonanza
for ourselves and our readers until we
read Clate's little spiel, and now we
are on the fence and don't know
whether to try the experiment OF not.

Protect Himself Against himself.

General R. NJ Nelson, President OF the
First National Bank of Sanford is here
today Mr., Nelson is product of the
North State, but for the past quarter OF
a century has resided in Alabama, where
he has large landed interests. He owns.
or did until recently the little town OF
Minton.
Remarking incidentally, on the temper
ance sentiment agitating the public
mind in this State today he told an in
tcresting story The country in which
Minton is located has a population OF
10000 white and $4,000 negroes In the
day of the saloon crime was rampant in
Minton, and life there was cheap. But
with prohibition in effect life there was
sweet and the door of prosperity was
flung wide open. The inception of this
condition was due to the manager at
General Nelson's farm, a most honorable
official, but who became addicted to the
drink habit. One day to General Nelson s
surprise he was handed a petition for
prohibition, headed by the signature of
his farm manager, with the request that
the General go to the State capital and
secure the enactment of prohibition
law for Minton. Asked why he did this,
the Manager replied: He was trying
to protect himself against himself

tNJOINS BEEF TRUST
Temporary Injunction
is Granted by Judge
Gr0SSCup.

! Chicago, Feb 1S.-The so-called beef
Judge Grosscup, in the United States
| Circuit Court. demurrers of the pack
ers being over-ruled and temporary
injunction granted. The attorneys for
the packers made no announcement o.
their intentions. They have until March
4th to discuss the matter with their
principals If they deny the facts upon
which Judge Grosscup based his decs-
| ion, the matter will go before master
| in Chancery, who will hear the evidence,
/ and the case will again be argued before
| Judge Grosscup. An appeal may be ia
ken, in order to hasten the final adju-
dication of the case
| Judge Grosscup in his opinion says:
1.-THE defendants, controlling sixty per
| cent of the trade and commerce in fresh
meats in the United States, buy in the
course of their business live stock ship
ped from points throughout the United
States After this has been converted
into fresh meats it is sold again by them
at the places, where prepared, to deal
ers and consumers in other States or
! is sold through their agents, located in
! other States, to dealers and consumers In
/ the States where the agents are loca-
| ted.
| what may be called the body of
! these transactions is two fold. 1t reaches
backward to the purchase of cattle that
come to the defendants from States other
than those in which defendants maaufac-
ture and it reaches forward to the sale
of the meats after conversion to par
ties dealing with respect thereto from
other States, followed by shipments into
other States. Each of these transactions
constitutes in my judgment, Interstate
commerce"
The question whether the ayerments
set up in the petition constitute the
character of unlawful combination Judge
Grosscup answers in the affirmative. say
ing:
"Whether the combination be unlawful
or not. depends on whether it is in re-
, straint of trade. :.
whatever combinations has the fi-
rect and necessary effect of RESTRICTING
competition is, within the meaning OF
the Sherman Act as now interpreted, re-
straint of trade.
sThus defined, there can be no doubt
that the agreement of the defendants
to refrain from bidding against each
other in the purchase of cattle. Is COM
bination in restraint of trade SO also
their agreement to bid up prices to SUM-
ulate shipments, intending to cease from
bidding when the shipments have ar
rived The same result follows when we
turn to the combination of defendants TO
fix prices upon, and restrict the quarti-
ties Of meat shipped to their agents or
their consumers. Such agreements can
be nothing less than restrictions upon
I competition, and therefore, combination
in restraint of trade and thus viewed,
the petition, as an entirety, makes out
a case under the Sherman Act.

THE CAPE FEAR PILOTS.
They are Fighting Bill Which Prohibits
Compulsory Pilotags.

The bill 20 abolish compulsory pilot
age on the Cape Fear River was con-
sdercd by the Senate judiciary Commit
tee yesterday afternoon.
Urging the passage of the bill there
were present from Wilmington Messrs.
J. a. Arringdale, L. b. Rodgers, Aubrey
Parsley. J. A. Taylor, and Hugh McRae.
with Mr.. G. NJ. Busbee, of Raleigh, as
their attorney. Opposing the bill were
Capt J. j. Adkins, Capt. J. w. Craig,
Capt. S. f. Craig and MIR NJ. c. Guthrie,
chairman of the Board of County Com
missioners of Brunswick. Messrs Geo.
Rountree, of Wilmington, and Locke
Craig, of Asheville, appeared as attor-
neys for these.
Two years ago there was q compromise
measure adopted on this matter. 1t ap-
pears that there are forty-one pilots
engaged in their trade on the Cape
Fear and it is stated that they average
from $50 to $35 a month each. The
earnings are pooled and this is divided
among the pilots. Some of the mer-
chants OF Wilmington and the Chamber
of Commerce are opposed to compulsory
pilotage Of vessels entering and leaVlhg
the port and want the law repeated
leaving the number of pilots unlimited,
and pilotage a matter of choice
These hold that the rates are too hgh
and that it is hurting the business OF
Wilmington. On the other hand the
pilots claim that their rates arc not high,
but are reasonable as compared with
that of other ports. 1t is said that they
do not expect to increase the number OF
pilots, but will let them decrease as
deaths or other changes take place. the
rates for pilotage are fixed by the State
but the question of towage enters into
the question, the tow boats being owned
by a company, in which many pilots are
interested as individuals.
Speeches were made yesterday in ia
vor of the bill by Messrs. Aubrey Pars-
ley and Hugh McRae while Capt. ). }.
Adkins and Capt s. f. Craig spoke
against it. There was no conclusion
reached yesterday and other speeches
will be made today by the parties inter-
ested ard by the attorneys who represent
them.
