HEAVY HAIL STORM.
Orange County Visited by a Hail which
Causes Very Great Damage to Crops.

Causes Very Great Damage to Crops
From parties who were in the
city today particulars of a hail
storm that did great damage IN
the northeran part of Orange
county Tuesday night were learn
ed. The loss was something fear
full, large planters losing every
thing. The hail belt was three
Quarters to a mile in width. The
storm did not last more than 10
or 20 minutes. In that length OF
time thousands of dollars worth OF
property was destroyed. lin
some Places" said S. L. Fit
tard, who lost his entire crop OF
tobacco, oats, cotton and corn,
"the ice was piled three feet deep
yesterday morning.. This was IN
bitches, or places where it was
rifted." Continuing, he said that
yesterday morning one of his
neighbors gathered a guano sack
full Of the hail stones and carried
them to Hi,lsboro, a distance of
II miles. "When he reached
Hillsboro," sad my informant,
1.-The stones were as large as
guinea eggs. This gives you some
idea of the size of the stones when
they fell, these being gathered
after lying on the ground all
night.''
Telling of some of the losers,
Mr.. Pittard said that he lost his
entire crop of tobacco, 10000
hills; all his corn, cats and cot
ton. Fate Cooper lost from 80, 600
to 10000 hills of tobacco, Joe
Hurst from $4,000 to 0,OO0 hills,
Rufus Wilkins IS, 900 hills. John
Satterfeld, D. L. Wells, William
Ellison, Will Wright, Charles
Wilson, Mrs. Anderson a.d num-
bers of others lost practically
their entire crop. Ali of these
parties lost corn, cotton and oats,
in addition to the large loss on the
tobacco crop.
The first hail belt was about II
miles north of Hillsboro, near
Carr's postofice. Here the belt
was little more than a half mile
wide. At Caldwell, a distance of
nine or ten miles, the loss was
fearful. The average width of
the belt was probably from three
quarters to one mile. The storm
went in owards the western part
of Person county.
One year ago this same section
was visited by fearful hail and
wind storm and the damage oc-
casioned to the tobacco crop was
fearful. This year some of those
who lost a year ago are again los
ers, but in most instances the
storm belt was little removed
from the old belt and the losers
this year, as rule, are those who
escaped the destructive storm a
year ago. .-s4-~
Mr.. Pittard said that he did
not know what the farmers in
this belt would do. The oat crop
is not worth cutting and the corn
is left standing in many instan'
ces without q tingle blade left or
the stalks.-Durham special tc

Poor Service at Post Office. Much Rain

Poor Service at Post Office. Much Rain
Affects Crop Prospects.
stanly Enterprise, June 9lst,
The South is not always alive
to it's best interest. We have been
too largely patrons of the pack
ing houses and granaries of the
West. There is no reason why
our farmers should not supply
all home demands for cattle, lard
meats, butter, ETC., and live IN
utter disregard of the character
of the products of the Chicago
packing houses. The v ashing-
ton Post emphasizes this point
in plain aud rather blunt way,
and remarks "that if at any time
the Southern towns, cities and
communities have suffered either
in their stomachs or their pocket
books because of the high price
or wholesome character of Chi
cago meat products, they have
only themselves t. blame,' and
that "therc has never been the
smallest reason why they should
not feed themselves from their
owl. herds, tlocks, fields, dalrles
and barnyards. "
Reports from various parts of
the. county are rather gloomy.
On many farms wheat was cut be-
fore the rain and remained H. the
field for several days, causing it
to sprout and turn black. How
ever, the rains were not contlnu-
Gus, and farmers avalled them
selyes of every moment they were
able to work. Some owned bind
ers, but the ground was too wet
for using the machine and the old
scytbe and cradle were pressed
into service. Wives aud daugh-
ters are taking the place of farm
hands, owing to great scarcity
of labor, and on some farms the
men at the cradle do both cut
ting and binding. Brave work
is being done this week, and it
will not surprise us if 1t all is
not rewarded by, ''it turned out
better than I expected"
While at the Windemere Knit
ting Mill the other day, we no.
ticed large number of revolving
chairs being unloaded. Being
curious to know where they were
to be installed, our mind was
soon relieved by the superintend-
ent of the finishing room W. W.
Duckworth, who carried US to Ia
bles where a number of young la
dies were engaged at folding ho-
siery and at other work. The
chairs are adjustable and in the
comfort and ease given the op-
eratives, the mill will get good
returns for It's investment.
Despite the fact that the sal
ary of the postmaster at this
place has been raised to 81, 400
year, our people continue being
subject to bad state of affairs,
and the service has not been i'm
proved at all commensurate with
the increase. Cramped quarters
and inadequacy of assistants ren'
der the service exceedingly poor.

l III.
During the past week or ten
days HI. E. Rich. an estlmable
workman of Thomasville, has
gradually been losing his mind
and at last accounts he had
grown entirely insane. Brooding
over trouble has caused it. Mr..
Rich was superintendent of the
Rider-Cramer wagon works while
that plant was in operation, and
since about March the first he
has been employed III the furni-
ture factories. He is a fine work
man and good man, and his
case is very sad. Efforts have
been made to have him admitted
to the hospital at Morganton, but
up to yesterday. owing to the de-
plorahle condion of affairs, no
room could be found for him.
In few days a drinking place
for horses will be provided op-
poslte the court house, and one
for the folks at the east corner Of
the court house. The superiDd-
ent of the light and water plant
is also making ready to put III
the new engine at the plant. As
soon as q machinist arrives it
will be placed.
Laborers certainl y are fe W
these days and are in high de-
mand everywhere. And where
ever man has hands employed
he regards them with jealous
eye. A gentleman of this place
was in South Carolina the other
day on still hunt for hands,
and finally rounded up fifteen.
So far all was we'll, but one of

Facts About Peru.

In size Peru is fourth among
South American republics, its area
falling slightly below that of Boil
via. It covers some sos, 700 square
miles, without including certain
areas which are in dispute with
Bolivia, Ecuador and Chile. It is
thus nearly one-fourth the size of
the United States, and nearly six
times as large as the United King
dom. The population, however, is
very sparse-less than 10 to the
square mile-the total number be-
ing estimated at about 4 ,610, 900,
not including many small, uncivil-
lied Indian tribes, whose numbers
there is no possibility of ascertain
ing. Of the 4 ,610,0 enumerated
in the estimated population, but a
small percentage are of white blood
about $4,000. The remaining
IS per cent are negroes, halfbreeds,
Indians and Asiatics, who have, as
rule, reached but low degree
of civilization, and cannot be re-
garded as being of any great eco
nomic Importance, except as pos
sible laborers in the developing in
dustries of tue country.
