The Worlds Fair Division of Exhibits
has completed arrangements to transfer
the exhibit installation plans for the vari-
Gus exhibit buildings from the Office blue
prints to the great floor areas. This work
will be done under the direction Of the
chiefs of the various departments.
Methods followed in this work are SIM
pie and permit of expedition. First the
floors are carefully surveyed, then the
lines of aisles and exhibit allotments are
drawn with paint. The lines are 2ls inches
wide and done in several colors.
An idea of the magnitude Of this work
can be had when it is known that in the
Agriculture building alone more than six
miles of lines will be painted.

Attarian had been in prison in Aleppo
for the last two months and had just been
liberated through the Intervention of the

guards, rearrested Attarian and took him
back to prison.
Mr., Davis Immediately lowered the nag
over the consulate and formally broke on
relations with the Turkish authorities by
quitting Alexandretta. leaving the con-
sulate in charge of the Vice Consul.
A mob Of Moslems seized on the occa-

The local authorities assert that Mr.. Da-

Letter From EPSON.

EPSON, n. C.. June 10th, 1903.
EDITOR GOLD LEAF:-Though our

tiously quote the language of the Queen
of Sheba and say 1.-The half has not yet
been told" for listen, one of our neigh
bors has actually had direct call to the
ministry through this same EPSON tele-
phone line.
We believe all the EPSON girls who
have been off to school have made their
home run within the past two weeks.
Miss Cassie Weldon, of Elon College; Miss
Pattie Aston, of Littleton College, and
Miss Susie Green. of Louisburg College
returned home about two weeks ago,
and Miss lola Dul e. of Uaremont Col
lege, returned last Friday, bearing the
honors of her school
Mr.. John Ayscue has returned home
from Wake Forest College, having COM
pleted his course at that institution
Among the EPSON girls and boys who
attended the enjoyable entertainment
given by Miss Emma Ayerett last week
were: Misses Carrie and Pattie Aston
with their brothers, Walter and Perry;
Misses Van and Lou Duke, with their
brother, Ransom; Miss Susie Green and
brother, Nathan; Misses ROwena and

Great UpIift for the Methodist Protest
ant Church.

The following is taken from the
Greensboro Church Record of last
week, and is published in the hope
that there may be others who seeing
the good work of our generous friend
and honOred townsra an, Mr.. George
b. Harris, may be constrained to
emulate his worthy example:
We are permitted to publish this week
that which will make glad the hearts of
many Methodist PrOtestants in North
Carolina.
Bro. Geo. b. Harris has put his hand
to one thousand dollar pledge for our
college enterprise. Those who know him
know two things: that this act has been
preceded by a very careful consideration
of the whole matter and that t will be
followed by payment OF the pledge
when the conditions are met. What are
the conditions? you ask. None only the
very proper and necessary ones insisted
on by others, that the aggregate shall
reach 800, 900 and that embarrassing
debt be avoided He adds this signif-
cant statement: Il will then make a
further subscription to the endowment
fund, if | am able
Bro. Harris has already spent much
money in educating his children at West
ern Maryland College and elsewhere, and
this proposition should be understood
by our people as an offer to help them
provide for their own children if only
they will help themselves.
This brings the aggregate up to So
7O7.
We want to see it reach $50, 900 before
the general canvass is begun. Will YOU
not help to bring it up to this point?

EDITORIAL AMENITIES.

The Greenville Reflector and Will
mington Messenger have been Jump
ing on the Wilson News because of
its fondness for their editorial mat
ter and failure to give proper credit
for same. That is to say they
charge the News with stealing the
product of their brains and palming
it off on the public as it's own. The
News "confesses the corn" SO far as
to acknowledges the appropriation OF
an article from the Messenger, (which,
through the carelessness of the prin-
ter, went.uncredited." Whereupon
the Reflector passes the following
compliment to the Wilsonpaper, and
the end is not yet:
The News has repeatedly printed
column after column of editorial mat
ter from the Reflector and the Dur
ham Herald without line of credit.
Does the defendant charge this to
the carelessness of the printer? We
hope not, because we would hate to
have North Carolina journalism dis
graced by a member who is not only
an acknowledged editorial thief but
most uncommon liar as well.
