gray coat, gray vest and-here' g the
rub gray trousers.
All other conditions had been met
and found cheerful and willing compli.
ance on the part of the three sweet
girl applicants. Even that portion Of
the physical examination to be taken
by al applicant for the position of
carriers requiring him to hop twelve
times on one foot without touching
the other to the floor had been met,
and, in fact, the hopping of the trio
was declared to be perfect. The rub
is in the requirement that letter ear

stringently.

three applicants claim, with equal ant
exact justice, that never would they
have applied for the position if Me
Kay had called their attention to the
%trouser regulation, and they shake
their application, their certificates OF
examination and their appointments
at him. In return he waves aloft
three pair of gray trousers and bids
defiance to the enemy. The spectacle
of three little girls in gray delivering
and collecting letters and postals
would be a sight indeed, and a relief
from the spectacle of rough men with

that at last the girls will give up hop
ing, and devote themselves to demon
strating just what a mean old thing

latiOnS

Postmaster Mckay, Of Des Moines,
Iowa, is in a quandary, with difficult
ties closing in and around him and
extrieation is becoming more and
more difficult. Being imbued with the
deepest faith in women, Postmaster
Mckay invited a number of the wom-
on folk of his town TO enter into the
class of competitors for the position
of letter carriers, there being three
vacancies to be filed in his bailiwick.
The response was prompt. More than
that, the women excelled the mere
men in the matter of examinations
under the rules of the civil service,
and the names of three were duly for,
warded to Washington.
Not being able to distinguish the
sex by the initials attached to the
names, but being much impressed with
the remarkably high averages of the
three, Postmaster General Payne APP
proved the appointments and they
were made accordingly. But at that
pointer, rather, at the point of Des
Moines-the difficulties began to cloud
the horizon, and the women to cluster
around and about unhappy Postmaster
Mckay. The reason and the cause
thereof were plnin.

neck were very much enlarged, and after
the free use of iodine, the right one was
reduced to its normal size, but the left

pipe, causing difficult breathing, and be-
am very painful. An incision was made
and a large quantity of pus discharged.
The gland was removed, or as much as
could with safety be taken out. For ten

THREE MORE ARE ELECTED.
The Vote for Bishops in the Mctho-
odist General. Conference.
CBy the Associated Press


Los Angeles, Cal, May 19.-Three
additional bishops were elected today
at the Methodist General conference,
Dr. w. f. Mcdowell and DR.. Henry
Spellmeyer on the second ballot,
which was announced at the morning
session, and DIR. J. w. Bashford, cho-
sen on the fourth ballot late this aft
ternoon The third ballot resulted in
no election.
Four of the eight bishops to be
elected have thus far been chosen as
follows:
DIR. J. r. Berry, Chicago; DR.. Henry
SpelImeyer Newark, N. j.; DIR. Will
liam f. Mcdowell, New York; DR..
James w Bashford, Delaware, O.
The fifth ballot was taken just be-
fore adjournment, and as result OF
il, it is reasonably certain that DR..
Burt is elected as the fifth bishop and
perhaps DIR. T. b. Nicely a sixth.
DIR. j. w. f. Bowens loss of 1S4
votes on the fourth ballot is thought
to be an indication that he is out of
the running, but it does not necessa-
rily effect his candidacy for missionary
bishop. He is the negro candidate.
The report of the Committee on In
ternational and Industrial Peace,
which was read today, will doubtless
provoke an animated debate when ii
comes up for consideration next Tues
day. The paragraph on corporations
which is likely to provoke heated con-
troyersy is q strong indictment of the
"grasping monopolist" and expresses
sympathy with the toiler.

Prof Middleton, who is also a Wake

his first assistant there will come Prof.

an experienced teacher, a graduate of

of the primary work, and Miss Alice

\ Word About Cary.
1 have been delighted with this
town, for it is a place that attracts
one as he fingers in it. 1t has the
sign of q well-to-do people, a content
ed people, and such always attract.
The place is we'll laid off, the streets
are broad and well shaded. All about
is fine farming country, the ground
rolling. There are some handsome
homes here, though the majority are
not built for show but for use. They
look as if happy families dWelt in
them.
Just at the junction of the Seaboard
Air Line and the Southern Railway,
eight miles from ItdleiSU, the p1dCe
is an ideal one for manufacturing en-
terprises. There is now available here
for some enterprise a big brick build
ing erected for a cotton factory, but
never used for that. The Harrison
Wagon Works has it home in Cary
and is prospecting. 1t tells by it's sue
cess how other enterprises could sue
coed.
Cary has it's stores and general lines
of enterprise that become q thrifty
place. The trains of the two railroads
are passing and repassing constantly
and there is always the stir of move
ment. 1t will not be always that fac
tories will be absent, and there is a
hint that one day a trolley line may
connect this place and Raleigh.
1t has become a residential place
for many. The Cary High School has
done this as q meginning. People have
come in from the country to live there,
and it is so healthy and so pleasant q
place that others will come here to
reside.
| am pleased with Cary, and
have told of it, The visitor who comes
to inspect will be so likewise, and j
predict for it that one day it will
have so grown and expanded, and
other clever people will have joined
the clever people now living here
that it will blossom as the rose.

CONSUMPTION OF COTTON.
Its Enormous Increase i'm the South
ern States and the Results.
(By the Associated Press


Washington, May 19.-The Depart
ment of Agriculture will shortly issue
comprehensive report on the con
sumption of cotton in the cotton
States, compiled by j. l.. Watkins, the
cotton export, of the bureau of stat
istics 1t traces cotton manufacture
in this country from its inception to
the present time and reviewing the in
dustry in the past twenty years says
that Notwithstanding the great in
crease in the worlds consumption of
cotton, the overshadowing feature of
the period is the phenomenal increase
in consumption in the cotton states.
This CONSTIPATION in the South in
creased 1000 bales or 500 per
cent, the consumption in the North
has Increased 10000 bales, or 50
per cent, and in the whole country
1859, 900 bales, or nearly l4S per
cent. This, the report says, is of i'm
mense significance to the countries
consuming American cotton, because
every additional 10000 bales con-
sumed in this country means shorter
time for some foreign mills, perhaps
it's shutting down, assuming, of course,
that no further expansion of the
American crop will take place. Dur
ing the last twenty years the United
States has increased it's cotton crop
nearly 0,oUU,UUU DcleS VI lDOuI ~ PNA

100000 bales of 400 pounds each on
.73 per cent; Egypt's crop has IN
creased $4,000 bales of 500 pounds
or 10 per cent; Russia, which used 10
draw so largely upon this country Tor
her raw cotton, is now supplyln ner
own mills with 100000 or 100000
bales grown in her trans-aSplan prov
inces; Brazil has almost ceased eX-
porthing cotton on account of home
demand for her crops; and the con-
tinent of Europe has increased Its
consumption of cotton 2,492,O00 bales
or about 95 per cent The consump-
ton of cotton in East India, the re-
port points out shows an IN
crease of 100000 bales, or about
200 per cent in the last twenty

The Deadlock i'm Illinois on the Eve of
Breaking.
(By the Associated Prcss.)

Springfield, Ills, May 19.-Fof the
first time since the beginning of the
deadlock in the Illinois Republican
convention, the delegates today began
to show signs of breaking away and
there was evidenced a disposition to
leave the leaders.
Many of the delegates left town this
morning, and some of them declared
that they would not come back until
some of the gubernatorial candidates
got out of the race and made it possi7
Bile to break the deadlock. Their votes
were cast by the more faithful of the
delegates, in some instances Single
delegate voting an entire county. The
feeling of unrest found vent in the
introduction Of a resolution provid-
ing that the convention proceed to the
nomination of candidates for office
other than of governor, but the prcpo-
sition was defeated.
The ballots were taken today with
out appreciable changes in the result.

the United States as revised in 1908.
The report states it is mutually recog-
nized that doctrinal agreement now
exists between the two churches and
suggests how the details of the church
may be adjusted.
The closing recommendation pro-
vides that the Presbyterian church
shall make such changes of govern
ment as will allow separate Presby
teries for a particular race or ma
tionality.
The Cumberland committee thinks
that the revision of 1908 removed ia
talism from the Presbyterian creed.
Negro Cumberland Presbyterians now
have a separate church. 1t will re-
quire a two-thirds vote of the assem-
bly, to send these recommendations to
the presbyteries. Then, they must
be adopted by a majority of the pres
byteries before becoming effective.

Buffalo, N. Y, May 19.-The gem
eral assembly of the Presbyterian
church in the United States was this
afternoon stampeded for the Rev. j.
Addison Henry, d. D., of Philadelphia,
for moderator. DR.. Henry was elected
unanimously almost before the other

was generally believed that the Rev.

would be elected on the second ball

DR.. Moffat's campaign had been
carefully conducted for months by his
friends while DR.. Henry did not come

Grand Duke Cyril May Gain the Wo-
man He Loves.
(By the Associated Press.)

Berlin, May LIT is again unoffi-
cially reported that the divorced Grand
Duchess of Hesse is engaged to Grand
Duke Cyril of Russia. Rumors have
been circulated several times within
year ascribing matrimopial intentions
to Grand Duke Cyril, but it is now said
that Emperor Nicholas, who hitherto
has opposed the alliance, has given
his consent because of Grand Duke
Cyril's narrow escape from death at
the time of the sinking of the Russian
battleship Petropavlovsk off Port Ar
thur, which affected the Grand
Duchess Hesse more favorably towards
his suit.
The Grand Duchess has hitherto re-
ceived a yearly allowance of $4,000
from her former husband and she has
been engaged in negotiations for its
continuance, but day or two ago she
cut the negotiations short and re-
nounced any further payment OF the
annuity, according to special dis
patches today from Coburg 1t is as.
sumcd here that this remuneration fore
shadows her early public bethrothal to
Grand Duke Cyril.
