TWO CENTS
DAYTON ALARMED.
Augusta County if Formed might
Play Smash


With the Republican Majority in the
Second District Resolutions of Re-
spect Passed by the Supreme Court
on Judge Berkshire's Death-Other
Charleston Gossip.
CHARLESTON, Feb. 9.-This has
been day almost wholly devoid OF
news. In the Supreme Court today
the following order was entered
'The court notes with deep sorrow
the death of Hon. Ralph Lazier
Berkshire, since the last term OF this
court, and of Hon. Edwin Max
well. since tie beginning of the pres
ent term, both Oh whom were former
judges of this court, and nov testi
fies to their great personal worth
and distinction as citizens, and
their, capacity and integrity as judges
and orders that this be entered on
the record as memorial by this
court"
The bench and Judge Maxwell's
portrait were appropriately draped in
mourning. The court then adjourn
ed until Mon lay next.
Congressman Dayton and his POI
litical friends have become alarmed
over the Augusta county movement,
and are believed to be against 1t.
Mr.. Dayton's district is reasonably
close, politically, but with the Au
gusta county territory cut off and
annexed to the First district as it
would be, the Second dis srict would
be Democratic on the basis of the
last election. This has injected a
political element into an already in.
teresting situation.
There are rnmors afioat that the
Senate may reconsider fits action OH
the tax commission bills. There's d
beautiful row ahead in that little
matter
But eighteen more working days
OF the session remain and there are
more than $50 bills not acted upon.
The weighty subjects, like the tax
commission, the railroad commission,
the fellow servant bill, the pipe line,
telephone and telegraph bill, An
gusta county and the appropriation
bills, will easily consume their time.
Two things are inevitable Night
sessions must be held and debate
shut off it any progress is to be made
at all So far the session has been
a dismal failure as far as actual re
suits are concerned, and the outlook
is not bright. Perhaps, however.
the coming week may bring better
things. But it is doubtful, for a
number OF members are cooked and
primed for speeches in various to
pict IN both houses.

Augusta County Situation.

Messrs. Cox and Glasscock have re-
turned from Charleston, where they
had gone to oppose the new county
bill. Mr.. Grant and George w. John
son remained behind to see the bill
through if it is not two long 10 COM
ing up. Mr.. Glasscock thinks the bill
will be defeated, if its opponents get
To present the case as it is, before the
House of Delegates.
Mr. Goodwin, who returned Satur-
day, is very doubtful about the final
result, since the opponents OF the bill
had no opportunity to present the
facts in the case to the committee. He
fears the bill may now pass both
Houses, though be hopes it will Dot.

Great Success.

AL G. Field and his Ministries had
Morgantown going on Saturday
night The company is one of the
best on the road. The various sing
ers could not have been improved
upon. Mr.. Field himself made tie
crowd laugh by clever monologue
which at times got away with the
audience and he had to wait on
them. The tumbling was feature
and it was the best ever seen here
by long odds. Nothing that can
approach it has ever been seen in
the city.

A WORK.

The Wake County branch of the Woman's So
ciety for the Improvement of Public School
Houses and Grounds is doing some very effective
work just now. Not only is it encouraging more
attractive houses, the planting of trees and shrubs,
and the adornment of walls with maps and pic
lures, but it has taken up the work of distributing
magazines and papers among the rural schools.
The officers of the County Association wish to
organize a local branch in each school district
wish to "get the women of each district to interest
themselves in their school and make it a social
centre"-and we trust their efforts will be success
full. There should be such county and district or
carnations throughout the State, and we advise
persons interested to correspond with their Coun-
ty School superintendent. School committees
everywhere should seek to interest women in this
work.

A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK.

To tell a child this and show it the other, is
not to teach it how to observe, but to make 1t the
recipient of another's observations: a proceed
ing which weakens rather than strengthens It's
powers of self-instruction. Children should
be led to make their own Investigations, and to
draw their own differences. They should be told
as little as possible and led to discover as
much as possible. Humanity has progressed
solely by self-instruction; and that, to achieve the
best results, each mind must progress omewhat
after the same fashion, is continually proved by
the marked success of self-made men. In all
education the process of self-development should
be encouraged to the fullest extent.-From Her
bert Spencer's Education"
