TWenty-One in This Country and Eng
 land, but Different Elsewhere.

The question as to why the nation al salute consisted of 2l guns was put to one of the classes at Washington preparing young men for the entrance examinations for West Point and An napolis and, strange to say, not one of the embryonic generals or admirals Init the nail on the head"
 The coach" who knows American history away down underneath, fur nished the information that the na- tional salue, which is the internation al salute-that is, the salute given to national fag-is fixed by army reg ulations at 21 guns and that the num- Der appears to have been in conform ity to the custom of foreign nations 1 ar Ine time when the number was Sd fixed
 The first record of a national salute is in army regulations of 1912, which is in conformity to the number of | states comprising the uniOn then IS, but in 1918, a new regulation was made fixing the number at 21, which was at that date the number of states in the union and which was at the same time in accordance with the kings regulations (Great Rritain) which fixed 21 guns to be fired as a salute on the anniversary days of the birth, accession and coronation of the king, the birth of the queen, the res toration of Charles II. and the gun powder treason.
 At that date the national salute in France was also fixed at 21 guns, to be fired only on Corpus Christi day and on the kings birthday
 It is proper to remark, however that the national salute of 2l guns at the present time appears to be pecu- liar to the United States and Great Britain, inasmuch as the national sal ute of France is 101 guns; of Germany B guns, and that the superlative salute in the United States is that on the Fourth of July of one gun for each state in the union and it is called the salute to the union.

COMPROMISE REACHED.

A compromise was reached Yesterday
between the Stale of North Carolina
and the railroads in the matter of long
pending rate wars.
Gov. Glenn last night, after a confer
ence with State officials and President
Finley, OF the Southern Railway, an
nounced the end OF hostilities.
The compromise is for q cent fiat

portation to q cents, so that the inter
and interstate rates may be uniform; put
on sale two thousand mileage books al
2 cents, interstate and interchangeable
two thousand milesge books for firms
snd employees not to exceed five persons
coed in aud out of the State and inter
chaDgesble; fve-hundred mile family
book, good in the State, at 2 cents, and
with the further stipulation that the rail-
roads shall bear all the expenses of the
litigation up 10 the time Of the accept
ance of the compromise.
The Southern Railway, through Presi-
dent Finley, agreed to the proposition
of the governor, with the exception o.
the item relating to the family mileage
book at cents, novelty of which that
road seemed afraid. 1t offered, however,
to include this item at p cents.
After further conference with State
officials, the governor agreed to meet
this objection rather than have the lit.
