y nice bit of fresh gossip has il
that there are six teachers in one
school in this city who are engaged.
Whether this means engaged to teach

Variety Of TarheeI Products.

A Washington dispatch last
Wednesday stated that a firm in
the capital city had received from
a North Carolina mountaineer a
consignment of six bald and
American eagles and six wild
geese, all hungry. The geese were
caught several months ago and
have been trained to act as decoys
for wild ducks and geese. Each
one of them has the web ia one
foot cut and the bone in one
wing removed, SO that whether
swimming or flying they move in
a circle and are forced to
come back to the place they
started from. Put overheard
these geese attract wild ducks
and geese so that the hunter may
get q shot at them. AS much as
one hundred dollars is paid for a
we'll trained decoy goose. And
besides geese and eagles large
quantities of mistleJoe are re-
ceived in Washington from North
Carolina.

Why Buy MCCLQre'S?

McClure's Magazine is bought and
read in homes not because it is a maya
zine, but because it is the magazine.
Why?
AFIRST-THE PRICE. 1t costs but
n dollar a year, Or less than ten
cents a number, for over thirteen hun
dred two-column pages Of reading mat
ter. This amounts in actual bulk to
twenty to twenty-five books costing
anywhere from a dollar to two dollars
q volume.
SECOND-QUALITY The reading
matter is written by Americas lead
ing writers-the best short story wri-
tiers, the best writer's on timely az
ticles, the best writers of important
serials, such as Schurlz's "reminiscences
Or Bakers Railroad articles.
THIRD-TIMELINE SS, The read
ing matter in McClure's is not only
good it IS not only entertaining, ANU
sing, instructive and inspiring-it is
also about the subjects in which you
and all Americans are most interested
at the time. No subjects in the next
twelve months are going to be so i'm
portant as the question Of railroad
rates and rebates and the question of
life insurance. Both of these quest
ions will be discussed by authorities in
an impartial, careful, interesting way.
FOURTH-IT'S CHARACTER. Nc
Clure's Magazine is not edited for
children, but at the same time, there
is never q line in it that any young
girl might not read, Its advertising
pages are as clean as its editorial
pages.

CHAT ABOUT UNION CHURCH,

Christmas-day, is a day to be
numbered with the past although
it has brought many to the ell
joyment OF another ensuing New
Year.
We are all glad to hear of
Christmas, and of the bounteous
gifts. But, Oh! It is tough for
the chickens and turkeys.
The long promised and expect
ed has come at last. That is, the
chain-gang, which has its loca-
ton near Union Church. On &C.
count Of the recent wet weather
they cannot move all their ma
chinery. We notice they are ma
king a very handsome start, so let
the good wrok 60 on.
Our school holidays are but
few, and then nothing but hard
work to hand. The students that
have returned from Hickory, N. G.
have a very interesting story to
tell, how "Hickory is building up
80 fast" She Is now planning to
establish her street car line. Her
scenery is very fine and Lenoir
College is run to perfection. The
largest number of students have
been enrolled this term, that has
ever been known. The manu-
featuring establishments all have
modern and up-to-date machi-
merry, SO Hickory is coming on.
We wish this town great success.
MOUNTAINEERING is here again,
DAnd soon will the snowflake
come;
For the bees, their humming have
quit;
For the good old winter time.
So squirrels you better hide;
Up in q tall, tall tree;
And rabbits too, may get fooled.
For holiday sport is here.
The school at Union Academy
will give one week vacation to
their scholars, commencing Janu-
ary the list. We hope the stu
dents will turn q new leaf by this
time.

KELLAR'S SECRETS ARE
SHUT IN l58 TRUNKS

The ordinary man would balk at pack
mig one trunk, but how would you like
to pack 15S trunks every days This is
the task that Kellar's stage manager
has at the Bijou after every perform
ance Of the great magician. Trunks are
stacked up in every corner, and they
number 15S. Unlike other productions,
the contents are not emptied out to re-
ment and then repacked. At every per-
formance Kellar's trunks have to be
opened, their contents taken out and
everything put back and the trunks Sc
curely locked before the magician leaves
the theater. There are but two keys,
one belonging to Kellar and one to his
trusted stage manager, and mo one else
can ever gain access to the trunks, so
careful is Kellar to guard the secrets
of his tricks and illusions. The very
instant the magician is thru using any
piece of apparatus, it is instantly taken
apart and placed in it's particular trunk.
The lid is clapped down before anyone
has a chance to examine the mysteries
of the necromancer art. Even other
members of Kellar's company never
have seen any more than the audience
for none except the assistant is allowed
on the stage during many Of the tricks
In many, however, the magician courts
investigation, and many of his audience
have lots Of fun making their stage ap
pearance and trying to catch the magi
elan in ONE of his trick. All such look
with curious eyes on the great pile Of
trunks, but as there is special guarG
kept night and day on them, it ism y
probable that the mysteries they con
tain will be fathomed.

THE SERIOUS SKETCH
WANTED IN VAUDEVILLE

"There seem to be a real sentiment
in regard to the demand for serious one
act plays in vaudeville says Edwards
Davis, the well-known leading man who
will present his own one-act tragedy,
"The Unmasking,', at the Orpheum
this week.
",rhe day is rapidly approaching
when every vaudeville manager will
make special efforts to secure good one
act plays of dramatic merit and artistic
worth. I have heard unknowing men
and women say they thought this form
of entertainment might be 'over the
heads of the vaudeville audiences
There never was a greater mistake. You
canndt 90 over the heads of the aver
age vaudeville audience, for there is nc
audience in the world quicker to seize
the real thing and throw aside the false
than those of the best vaudeville the
ater.
'There is already a list Of respecta
BILE length of those who have gone in fol
serious dramatic work in vaudeville
ea'd found the audiences more than re
s>,ousive. Valerie Bergere, who played
here in "Billie s First Love- and "Hi
Japanese Wife, is out this season with
condensation of "Carmen' and is
great success in it. Robert Hilliard
who for many years produced one-ac
plays far above the average sketch, ha
been tempted into the legitimate fell
by an unusually fattering offer. Eve
