THE VACATION SEASON.

t. -
The vacation season is drawing to q
close, and the many who have left the
cities and found retreats far from the
madding crowd will soon be returning
to their respective callings. As is al
ways the case, the great mass stay at
home and weather it out. Vacations,
like many other pleasures OF life, are
not intended for all, and the great
majority, like the Wandering Jew,
keep up the steady plod OF life amid
winters SHOWS anil summers beat.
Such, however, may be better off after
all, especially, when enjoying health
and plenty, minus cares of the mind.
DR.. Dudley A. Sargent, OF Harvard,
says that many OF the vacationists
would be better off il they stayed at
work. tn many cases the vacation is
more harmful than beneficial" says
Dr.. Sargent. The people who devote
fortnight or more each summer to
idle loa6ng and overeating come back
to work more tired than when they
vent away"

BISHOP PROTESTS.

It is understood that Bishop E. E.
Hoss, of the Methodist Episcopal
Church South and who lives ct Bristol,
will appear before the library commit
tee of Congress at the next session to
protest against Senator Martins bill to
appropriate S25; 1000 for tie erection Of
a monument to the memory OF Gen.
William Campbell, at Arlington.
Bishop Hoss. it is said, takes the
view that this measure manifestly
would he unjust to the memory OF Gen.
Evan Shelby, whose bones are buried
at Bristol, and Gen. John Sewer, whose
body sleeps on the courthouse green at
Knoxville, Tenn, both OF these gen.
erals being entitled, it is claimed, to
equal honor with Campbell for the
glory OF Kings Mountain. tbs further
contended that g. more logical
point for the location OF q monument
doing honor to all three Of the heroes
would be at Sycamore Shoals, in Carter
county, Tenn, where the army Assem-
.bled for the perilous march across the
mountains to meet Ferguson's men.

THE NEW STATES.

By the admission OF Arizona and
New Mexico into the union two more
stars have been added to the flag OF the
country. The growth OF the United
States during its comparatively short
history has been phenomenal. Stating
With thirteen states a century and 8
third ago, the forefathers OF the nation
never dreamed that the flag would

Some OF them later on were averse to
the acquisition OF Florida, Louisiana
or Texas. Should some OF them reap
pear and see that the flag has not only
crossed to the Pacific Ocean but has
been raised on the confines OF Asia, they
would stand agbast. They would also be
anaazed to know that the domains OF
the country sxteuu-r s-~.---4l-o-s r;o;d zone

STRIKE ABOUT TO END.

The strike fever which has conyulsed
England during the psst week or more
10 gradually abating, and, frou, pres.
ent indications, the great army Of
workmen who have been idle will have
returned to their former occupations
during the next few days. Such un
fortunate epidelnics generally run
their course within a certain. time
generally short period-atter Which
reason again becomes snshroned and
conditions resume their normal state.
The: effect Of q strike was never more
tsfeibly presented than that iu Eng
hand which is now drawing to close.
There was comparatively little disorder
considering the great mass of men
and women who were idle, but while
the strike vas on starvation was
staring thousands in the face.
Food had already reached what we're
prohibitive prices to many, while babes
sickeped aud died for want OF milk.

FRANCE PREPARING FOR WAC

FRANCE PREPARING FOR WAR
Although the negotiations between
France and Germany looking to a
settlement OF the Moroccan dispute
have been suspended for the present,
the attitude of the French foreign
Office is that settlement will be ar
ranged ultimately if inexhaustible
patience and moderation on the part
OF France can bring it about.
Conferences between Premier Cal
laux and Foreign Minister De Selves
upon the subject are frequent. Public
opinion appears to trust the govern
ment implicitly. The newspapers are
oautiou. in their comments to degree
that is rare in France. They refrain,
because Of a desire not to embarrass the
government, from emphasizing in the
least the quiet military preparations
which are being made steadily in
consequence OF ministerial orders.
The naval ports are busily making
the vessels ready for active service.
This activity is partly explained as a
preparation for the naval review off
Toulon on September 4, when Presi-
dent Fallieres will review 1s battle
ships, 6 OF which are of the dread
nought type, 9 armored cruisers and
80 war vessels belonging to the small
classes.

Mr.. Grant B. Finnell and Miss

Grant and Dixie drove over to
Salisbury Monday morning and
he out talked her on the subject
Of further postponement of an
event he proposed to have chron-
icled at some time, so she con-
sented to go on TO Huntsville on
the morning train and put an end
to his impatience. They return
ed to her home Monday after
noon, and but very few knew Of
the occurrence until Tuesday
evening.
Mr.. Finnell is one Of our John
ny at the rat hole boys for busi-
ness, and among the most popu-

Mrs. Finnell has just blossomed
into womanhood, and was a lead
er Of her set Of jolly girls. She is
the youngest daughter Of Mr.
and Mrs. NJ. A. Prather. and the
old folks will now be left alone.
as Mr.. and Mrs. Finnell expect
10 go TO housekeeping at once. Of
course as near to their mammas
as they can, because Dixie can't
make pies like her mamma and
Berte will have TO let her see

mamma Is. So we're betting
there won't be much cooking at
