ment the World Needs.
NO. SO

Under this caption the Baltimore
Sun cites an incident and breaches
this little sermon that is good for us
all:
Where has the summer gone?'
asked little girl, as she turned from
the window where she had been
watching the cold rain come down.
why, my dear, it is right here in our
home" responded the mother, as she
put her arm around her child. The
fire was glowing brightly on the
hearth, the room was warm and
cheerful, and everything was as cozy
as you please. But, best of all, there
was a smile on the mothers face and
a light in her eye that showed that
heart. iMsfTe -
No matter how the winds blow or
the snow falls, we can have summer
in the heart" The glow from loving
hearts not only makes a house
of the lives of those with whom we
come in contact and starts a respon-
sive glow that is contagious. 1t
spreads from one person to another,
until it's good influence extends to
wide circle.
Some people mourn because they
are not able to make friends readily,
because they do not possess what they
call "the power of attraction They
call it personal magnetism" "per-
sonality' and a dozen other names.
But the woman or man who always
has summer in his heart need not
worry about magnetism" for they
will win friends on every hand be-
cause they furnish the smile of en-
couragement of which all the world
| stands in need.
Dark days come into every life.
Sorrows there are that all of us must
| bear. We have our losses, just as we
have our profits. We have our bad
days as we have our good ones. But
no matter how the storms of the
world assail lis, we can keep our
hearts pure and good and warm. And
they will light up and warm our lives
as the fire does in the home when out
side all is bleak and drear.'

New Bern, N. c., Oct. 28-For a
year or more it has been currently
reported that the A. G. L. Railway
would extend their line from Whining
ton to New Bern on to Edwards, N. c.,
a point Oh the Washington and Vande-
mere line of the A. C. L. Surveyors

line is to connect at Grifton with the
A. G. L. branch running from Kinston

have been taken on the right of way
and that the line will surely be built,
and in the near future.
The Norfolk & Southern Railway is
building a new boiler shop and con-
stantly adding to the shops here. For
about two years the shop foundry has
been closed and no casting done at
boiler shop is ready for use the foun-
dry and casting department will be
opened again. In the past year
much new and modern machinery has
been installed in the shops and a large
force of men are employed. Just at
present two passenger cars are being
rebuilt and will be made into dining
cars. When the Albemarle bridge is
opened dining cars will be put on the
day trains to Norfolk and sleepers on
the night train. It is said that the
bridge will be open for traffic about

THE PROSPERITY SIGNS.

The business of this country, so far
as the statistics of imports and ex-
ports go, was never better in it's his
tory. This country imported last
month $120,941, ,642 worth of goods
and exported s153, ,4O9 worth. 1t
never before imported or exported as
much.
There is no explanation of these
figures, except on the ground that
there is more business, more work
more to sell and more money to buy
with than ever before.
The railroads can scarcely find cars
enough for daily service, and enor-
nous orders for additional equip
ment have been placed.
All signs point to advancing pros
perity and Goldsboro must get its

AS TO THE LAZY WORM
Individual Antipathy to Ener-
qetic Effort PathOleg-
icaIIy Diagnosed
The Million Dollars, Properly Distrib-
uted, May Do a Great Deal
of Good in Many

A scientific explanation of that tired
feeling is forthcoming at last, and the
explanation has excited great deal
of interest.
For quite a number of years we
have noticed on the part of certain
members of every community, not
only here in the South, but through
out the country, a constitutional re-
pugnance toward work. Their YER
sion of the national anthem was

Even men of native ability have been

While he superintended the earth.
In the humber ranks, where there
was no visible means of support, the
law has occasionally interviewed, and
with the refinement of cruelty COM
PEELED these people to go to the rock
pile.
Over in Africa the tsetse fly is said
to be responsible for the sleeping
sickness, but in this country we were
unable to account for it.
But it has all been made clear now.
It's the hookworm.
Now, the hoookworm, with fishing
rod at the end, has undoubtedly been
responsible for a great deal of this
distaste for work. The inviting bank
of a stream on a warm summer day
was we'll calculated to make any man
crest and loaf his soul" In fact,
whole organizations have been formed
to keep one another in countenance,
and as a sort of bond of mutual pro-
lection, while this particular hook
worm, speared on the hook and dang
ling in the stream, wrought its hyp-
motto influence.
But the scientists inform us that
this is a different sort of hookworm
from the one they have discovered in
the people of the South. There are
ten thousand victims in this State. IF
we had been asked right quick we
would have said that the number was
greater than that.
Just as the excitement was begin
ming to spread, after the discovery OF
the real nature of the disease, Mr..
Rockefeller came forward to pour oil
on the troubled waters.
He has promised to give a million
dollars to the cause of exterminating
the disease.
We do not desire to be dippant on
the subject of the hookworm, although
we must insist that it is hardly re-
sponsible for all the antipathy to en-
ergetic effort which is found here and
there in every section of the country
We are quite prepared to say, in fact,
that there is no more of this indispo-
sition here in the South than there is
elsewhere. But so far as the real dis
ease and the real hookworm is con-
cerned, we are very grateful to Mr..
Rockefeller.
The million dollars, properly dis
tributed, may do great deal of good.
It will circulate and percolate through
professional and business channels
and in that way at least will stimu-
late industry and activity-in spite of
the hookworm.
So, going or coming, the evil is
4 bound to be eradicated.
We are thankful for the million.

Banquet i'm Honor of the President a
Feature Of Vicksburg Yisit-GOv-

Make Trip by Rail-.

Vicksburg, Miss, Oct. 2s.-President
Taft arrived at Vicksburg tonight at
9:40 o'clock on the lighthouse tend
er Oleander. Of the proud feet of
gorgeously decorated vessels that
pointed their prows out of st. Louis
at five o'clock on Monday afternoon
only two were in sight when Presi-
dent Taft landed and gave himself in
to the hands of an enthusiastic but
sadly disappointed local committee.
He received joyous welcome from
several hundred faithful watchers at
the water front.
The steamer Erastus Wells, origi-
nally set apart for members of the
Cabinet who are now on board the
Oleander and the Illinois bearing a
delegation from Illinois docked to-
night soon after the President had
landed.
The st, Paul, which started out
with half the governors of the United
States. on board, and the Quincy, which
started with Speaker Cannon and a
large array of Senators and Repre-
sentatives as passengers, were among
the slower vessels that were nowhere
to be seen during the Presidents stay
in Vicksburg.
The governors and congressman de-
barked at Greenville today and came
to Vicksburg this afternoon by train
They will board their boats again to-
night for the run to Natchez.
The schedule of the river trip has
gone all topieces and although it is
planned now to have the President
wait outside of New Orleans on Sat-
urday until most of the boats can
join him there, the chances are that
this scheme will have to be abandon
ed, if Mr.. Taft is to set foot in the
Crescent City during daylight.
In making up the schedule of the
trip it is said the maximum speed of
the fast boats and the slow boats was
added together and an average speed
struck for all.
President Taft tried to remain with
the fleet as long as possible. On that
account he was three hours late at
Memphis and two hours late at Mel
ena.
Governors Noel, of Mississippi, and
Sanders, Of Louisiana, were taken on
board the Oleander last night in or
der that they might be with the Pres
ident at his stops in those states.
The people of Vicksburg, one of the
great strongholds of the Confederacy,
made great plans for entertaining the
President.

80 Men Employed at the MudhoIe
Mine.

Joseph Portugal, engineer at the
back yesterday from Walker, in which
district the property is located. He
says force of 30 men is now employed
at the Mud Hole, and hoist has been
installed. The pump is taking $500
gallons of water an hour from the old
shaft. The shaft has been unwatered
TO a depth of 300 feet or 100 feet below
the creek.
In less than a month the new double
compartment shaft will be down %
feet and in milling ore. Mr.. Portugal
saws he has mined from Alaska down
into Mexico and he has never been in
a mining district which he considered
superior to Walker district. That the
district is traversed by three strong
veins, the Mud Hole being the strong
est of the three, and that the ore bod
les of that district cannot be exhausted
in the lifetime of a man. Mr.. Conner,
who was present when Mr.. Portugal
was talking, and who is an old Walker
district miner, said there is at the
Conner group of mines 10 tons of ore
ready to be run through the Pine
Mountain mill; that Booker and AlgeI
are taking zoos per ton ore from theil
Black Diamond group: that every
camp in the district is active and ore
being taken out at all of them.-Pres

Mining Work at Tombstone.

The largest body of high grade ore
that has been uncovered on the 200
foot level of the big pump shaft of the
T. C. NJ. Co., which was opened up
few weeks ago, is still being developed
and although considerable ore has
been taken out already, yet the extent
of the ore body is still undetermined.
The ore carries high values in gold,
silver and lead. Another fact is the
splendid showing that is being made
in the Silver Thread. This property
is at present furnishing the ore that is
being concentrated at the mill and
during the past few weeks virgin
ground has been opened up that is ex-
posing a number of good sized ore
bodies that are averaging very high
in lead and silver.
In the North West shaft in which
work was recently started there has
already been opened up number Of
new ore bodies and several cars have
already been shipped from the prop
erty to the smelters at FL Paso. The
company intends to further develop
this section of the district by running
a $50 foot drift from the West Side
property to the North West and dur
ing the past week the former property
has been started up and number of
men have been put to work. Besides
running drift to connect the two
properties considerable other develop
ment work will be done in the West
Side.
Work was also started during the
past week on the Tribute shaft and
considerable work will be done on the
property in the way of sinking the
shaft and running drifts and crosscuts
on the various levels. This property
while down only few hundred feet,
has produced some as high grade silver
ore as has ever been uncovered in the
Tom bstone district.
The company intends to do the
largest portion of its work in the near
future in the country west and north
of the present pump shaft and what
has already been opened up will only
prove an incentive to further active
work in that direction.
During the past month the Consoli.
dated company has made arrangements
with the Pueblo Smelling and Rein.
ing company to handle such lead ores
of the district that carry large per.
centage of zinc as cannot be success
fully treated in the concentrating plant
here. Heretofore this class of ore has
not been given much attention, but
the company will now be able to shiI
considerable of this class of ore anC

Capital Investigating Utah Mines.

An Ophir, Utah, dispatch says:
There are many quietly conducted in
vestigations being made by the agents
of capital into the records of some of
the noted cid ore producers of Ophir
mining district, stimulated, no doubt,
bv the proven value and steady output
of the great phir Hill property,
owned by Senator w. a. Clark of
Montana: the Cliff Mining Company,
the Lion Hill Consolidated and several
others of lesser note rapidly coming to
the front with the old-time ore show
ings. The showing has caused the
knowing ones to sit up and take notice
and wonder why such mines as the
Mono, Queen of the Hills, Hidden
Treasure, Brooklyn, Desert, Utah,
Queen, Kearsafge ..6d other record
producers of high grade silver and
lead ores are now lying idle.
There is no reason, other than the
lack of enterprising capital to take
hold and sink vertical shafts from the
surface to the faces of the old work
ings. which are now lost in the intri-
cate maze of crooks, turns and wind
ings of the early day system of mining,
without leaving a well established
working base. When the old ore veins
are again picked up and followed sys-
tematically they will be found to ex-
tend to an indefinite depth and more
profitable to work than ever before.
Ophir was born with a horn silver
spoon in its mouth, and in the early
seventies was known as poor mans
camp" because of the close to surface
showings of horn silver, thin leaves of
which were frequently found plastered
on the top of an outcropping lime reef.
1t was these occurrences that gave
many of the original lCcators their
chance TO make a stake.
While silver, lead and copper pre-
dominate in the district, there are
also fair gold values, associated with
tellurium, found in several of the Dry
Canyon mines. The old Mono mine
produced ore that assayed up to S0OS a
ton in gold, and the Kearsarge ship
ped some ore that went above l,6OOS
in gold, and to those gold values were
added several thousand ounces of sill.
yer a ton.
There were tons of such ore shipped
from the mines of Ophir, particularly
from the Dry canyon side, and wher
modern, up-to-date methods are adopt
ed to open up the old mines so that
ore can be taken out rapidly and eco
nomically, the hum of steam and cleo

A Boston dispatch says: Pursuing
policy of keeping its monthly output
of copper around the 5000, ,00O-pound
mark while copper is under l3 cents,
the Old Dominion Co. has laid off
about $50 men and has stopped work
entirely in the western country. This
latter action was precautionary meas
ure, however, by reason of the in
creased flow of water due TO the un-
usual spring freshets. The Old Do
minion is now pumping about 5000, 200
gallons of water per day from its
mines. a record amount, and nearly
100 per cent above normal. 1t is hav-
ing no difficulty in handling this wa
ter. however, and the work was sus-
pended temporarily in the western end
to obviate any possibility OF another
