When~the Odd Fellows building is
completed our city viii have three as
handsome secret order buildings as any
in this state or perhaps in the south.
We doubt if any city south of the Po-
tomac river can boast of three such
handsome temples as these Of the
Masons, the Elks and the Odd Fellows
Of this city. They are all ornaments to
the city and testify to the prosperity
of these orders. The Odd Fellows tenn
pie, which is building near the city hal;
and county court house, will add great
ly to the appearance ofIhat section o.
the-city. The laying Of the cornerstone
of this building today will be a great
event with the Odd Fellows. The build
ing of this temple is likely to give new
impetus to this benevolent order here
and its already wonderful growth win
be even accelerated.

They seem to be having somewhat Of
a parrot and monkey time over the
blind tiger question in our sister city up
the Cape Fear. The Statesville Land
mark of last Friday contained the fol-
lowing:
They seem to be having quite a
warm time over the blind tigers at
Fayetteville, which is a dry town.
While appearing as counsel in a case
in Fayetteville a few days ago Mr..
John G. Shaw, prominent attorney,
charged that with the exception of the
sheriff none of the officers were max
ing an attempt to enforce the law, and
added that he was reliably informed,
that there were several blind tigers
in the city. Thereupon the mayor sum-
moned Mr.. Shaw to appear before the
board of aldermen and tell all he knew
about the blind tigers. Mr.. Shaw ap-
peared. Just what information he gave
is not stated, but the proceedings
were interesting and spicy, Mr.. Shaw
mayor and city attorney. and winding
up with the statement that he would
have the mayor and the board sum-
moned before a magistrate next Tues
day to tell what they know about blind
tigers. The outcome is awaited with
interest.
1t is to be hoped the affair will be
settled without any unpleasant features
developing.

In mapmaking il is not only essen

the right place. In some parts OF the
country where accurate geographical
surveys have not been made by the
government this is a difficult task.
The man who is buying a map or an
atlas has no use for il unless il gives
accurate information about the city or
town where he was born, where his
wife was uvorn and where he was mar

chaser does when shown a new atlas

OF these points.

RussIA,s THREE FLEETS.

II Russia wants to hold on to her
Baltic sea fleet she had better keep
it where il is. She may need 1t in
some future war. To send these ships
to Pacific waters will be a very dam
gerous proceeding. 1t looks as of the
Port Arthur feet has been almost an
initiated. While accurate accounts as
to what occurred when it made its
last sally cannot be secured. there Is
no doubt that it met most disastrous
have been compelled to seek net.tral
ports and go out of commission for
the balance of the war. 1t was a
forIorn hope on the part of the fleet.
1t had on all former occasions avoid
ed meeting the japanese warships on
the open sea. This attempt to slip
through the enemy's lines or to force
passage if such because necessary,
shows conclusively that The situation
at Port Arthur had become desper-
ate. This was the last step to be
taken in an effort to save what re-
manned of this once powerful fleet.
Now the japanese ships can turn their
attention 10 the destruction of the
VladiVostok squadron. Little will
they have to fear from what remains
to the Russians of the other. And
by the time the vessels from the west
ern waters reach The seat of naval
warfare, it is probable they will find
that there is no Russian fleet there
for them to reinforce.
Really the Japanese have complete
ly turned the tables on the Russians
at Port Arthur. For a while they
could not successfully attack the Rus
sian fleet in the harbor, because of
the effective fire of the latter's land
batteries. Now they have landed
troops, erected fortifcations and
mounted heavy guns in such position
as to sweep the harbor with shot and
shell, and they have made it untena-
BILE for the besieged's warships. The
Russians were forced to go to sea in
face of the japanese warships or have
theirs sunk in the port. They do not
seem to have gained much by the
movement. The Japanese no longer
fear this fleet, and have turned their
attention to the destruction of the
Vladivostok squadron. 1t seems that
there was another naval battle last
Sunday in which this Russian naval
force was defeated and scattered. At
least, one of the cruisers was sunk
and the others fed.
We suppose another dispatch will
be sent the czar telling how the hos
tile fleets met and fired at each other
for a while, when the Russians pur-
sued their course, with the Japanese
'.steaming in the same direction, but
far astern." 1t has been fortunate
for Russia on more than one occasion
that her warships could reel off more
knots to the hour than those of the
Japanese. They rely more on being
able to show the enemy clear pairs
of heels than on their guns. From the
| general tenor of the accounts of the
naval battles, the Russian man-of-
warsmen must be very poor marks
