the simple appliances that we may

EGYPTIAN ENGINEERING.
Even the Nile Dam ia Riyaied by the
Marvels Of Ancient Times.

When the ~'laudator ternporis acll

AFTER all, Egypt can show the big

and they are all four thousand years
old. When you can surpass them,
you win have something to boast OF.
II is undoubtedly true that Egypt con
tains the largest structures In the
world, and probably will for all time,
Ii is not likely that we shall again

(tons) of water between high and low
water marks. What the Labyrinth
was like we do not really know, but
Herodotus classed It as a greater won
der than the pyramids, although lesser
than Lake Moeris.
Further, there Is a tradition hat IN
the dim past the Nile flowed at the
foot Of the Libyan hills, and that IT
was diverted from that course into It's
present bed, and, II the account BIO
true, the work was Of enormous mag
nitude. The engineers Of the past
directed the forces of nature on a
large scale, but to compare their work
with ours TO their advantage shows

they excelled was the transportation
and manipulation OF heavy weights, a
feat that appeals strongly to the lay
imagination. Among the chief exam.

IT'S A STARTLING THEORY
Each Atom Said to Be Whole
Stellar System in
Itself. -

London, June 22.-The worlds foremost
searchers otter the ultimate secrets Of
the universe have at length committed
themselves to a stupendous theory which
has for some time been foreshadowed and
now apparently has been substantiated by
the study of the new substance called
radiun.
Professor Crookes, the other day in Ber-
lin, and Professor Lodge and Curie In
London, confidently have proclaimed that
it is easy to define this great revolution OF
science in scarcely more than q sentence.
To comprehend it, however, is almost as
far beyond the power Of the human mind
as the idea Of eternity or infinite space.
The old theory that the atoms or elements
consist Of indivisible units Of matter -
now been definitely discarded. Instead,
it Is held that each atom is a whole stellar
system of Infinitely smaller but absolutely
Identical units all in orbital motion. A
hydrogen atom consists Of 700 such units

or ions. The nature or identity of each
substance depends upon the number Of
such ions contained in each atom. Thus.
II 200 ions in each atom produce what
VIC know as oxygen, and 137,200 Of the
same ions, if combined In a single atom,
would yield what we regard as gold. The
nature Of these ions Is, for want Of a bet
ter word, electrical. In other words, cleo
trfcity and matter are one and the same
thing. This theory has been more or less
familiar to scientific men for two or three
years, but it has not been dem onstrated
until recently, when the study Of the
Roentgen rays introduced it, and now
seems to furnish complete proof and car
ries it's conception into a marvellous elab-

GIVE US A ROLL-CALL.

When the caucus was called to order
last night, Mr.. J. Ernest Erwin, of
Burke, made motion that the vote for
Senator should be by roll-call, as in the
House. 1t was seconded by several, and
if the galleries could have voted it would
have passed by a big majority. But
when it came TO a vote only thirty-two
of the more than one hundred and
thirty present voted for it. And so the
voting was by ballot as heretofore.
Gentlemen of the Caucus: For nearly
two weeks now you have been trying to
elect Senator by the ballot. Why not
change now and vote viva voce? Give
us a roll-call. The people in every county
in the State would like to have a roll
call and know how their representatives
are voting. Perhaps they might approve
and in some instances they might dis
approve.

HOME COMING OF NATIVE NORTH
CAROLINANS.

1t has been said that North Carolina
IS good State to be born in and to move
from. A distinguished statesman once
truly said: Emigration has been our
bane" There are tens of. thousands of
North Carolinians scattered throughout
the United States who have never visited
the State since they left it. And they
have never been formally invited to re-
turn and see the progress their native
State is making.
The business organizations of Greens
boro, with commendable enterprise and
patriotism, have put on foot movement
to hold in that city great reunion of
North Carolinians scattered abroad en-
North Carolina Day." October 18th. This
reunion will demonstrate how great a
contribution North Carolina has made to
American citizenship, and will indicate
to the leaders we have furnished to other
States, how great has been the growth
and development of their native State in

The plan proposed by Greensboro is not
in any sense local. Greensboro simply
asks the privilege of furnishing the means
for securing the reunion, and entertain

PERHAPS THE RIGHT VERDICT.

There is no reasonable doubt In the
minds of an hundred people in Pasquo-
tank and the surrounding counties that
Wilcox murdered Miss Cropsey. To our
mind the circumstantial evidence is as
strong and convincing as if two honest
men had witnessed it and sworn to the
fact. But there are not a few good men
in the State, away from the Albemarle
section, who gravely doubt whether the
evidence proves beyond a reasonable
doubt that Wilcox committed the crime.
Because there is some difference of opin-
ion, it is perhaps best that the verdict
carries with a sentence for thirty years
Imprisonment. If Wilcox had been SEN
fenced to be hanged, there would have
been a movement in his behalf by some
good men who believe that there is a
reasonable doubt
