passionate musician told her that he
simply wouldn't spoil his future by
marrying her. But he didn't have
ANYTHING to say about returning that
$4,000 he had borrowed.
Mrs. Simecek didn't carc to have
future spoiled, either. So she
commenced " breach Of promise &C.
ton against her one-tilne lover. The
jury was out a few minutes and then
returned a verdict in favor of the
plaintiff for $4,000.
Now the musician is working over
time trying to raise the money. It

veloped a positive aversion for all
golden kittens. and especially those
that have alabaster in their makeup.

FERN GROWS IN
TIGHT BOTTLE
Has FlOurished For 35 Years
Under Theoretically Sealed
Glass Receptacle

CINCINNATI, April 4.--One Of the
very unusual sights at the Rotham-
stead experiment station, in England,
is fern growing inside hermettcal-
ly sealed bottle. In one OF his letters,
Prof Alfred Vivian, of the Ohio Col
lege of Agriculture who is making "a
tour of the world, describes this
strange occurrence: Ever since the
station started, over 70 years ago,
they have each year taken samples
of soil.
These samples are placed in bot
ties and sealed for future reference.
One sample Of soil taken 80 years ago
was placed in large bottle The
bottle. which was about twothirds
full was sealed tight with sealing
wax----------
"A short time afterward a little
fern started to grow in the bottle, and
has been alive and growing ever since.
For 35.years it has continued to live
and carry on all the life processes.
although Theoretically sealed in the
bottle. What an unusual example that
is of the cycle Of carbon and oxygen
in plant growth. Apparently the fern
is thriving perfectly, and may con-
tinue to do so for a long time If no
accident happens to 1t.

DOeS ANCESTRY A PUZZLE
NaturaIlsts by No Means Agreed as to
How the Present FavorIte Of Man
Really Has Descended.

Naturalists and the world at large
seem to generally accept the theory
thar the domestic dog is, in some
sense. a collateral descendant of the
wolf or iackal SAYS Harners Weekly.
A professor in the Natural History
museum Of Paris has communicated
results Of his study Of various canine
skulls to the Academy OF Sciences.
He appears to have noticed certain
peculiarities Of growth which have
hitherto escaped biologists.
He states that the skull of almost
every species Of wolf and jacket differs
from the skull Of the shepherd dog to
an extent that makes it impossible
that this dog should belong in the
same classification. The skull Of the
Indian wolf, on the contrary, shows
some points Of resemblance. This, in
decd. is the only savage canine the
top Of whose head projects like that
81 our dog
There are. moreover. other charac-
teristics which the Indian wolf has in
common with the dog, and which the
ordinary wolf does not share with
them. although his origin and that Of
the dog have long been supposed to be
common one.
The conclusion OF this scientist is
that the Indian wolf is the progenitor
Of the shepherd dog and the blood
hound. There were two primitive
races Of dogs analogous to these which
were first domesticated in Central
Asia, whence they passed to Europe,
and there seems no reason to doubt
that the bloodhound OF today is the
direct descendant OF the dog spoken Of
by the aneients as "the dog Of the
age Of bronze

EeYpTS DEBT TO WORMS
Their Digging Through Thousands Of
Years Is what Makes Fertility Of
the Valley Of the White Nile.

The fertility Of the valley OF the
White Nile is renowned. British sci
enti6c surveyors report that its re-
markable productiveness is dua in
large part to the diligence Of earth
worms. which have been digging it
for thousands Of years. Observations
are recorded showing that during the
active six months Of each year the
castings Of the worms brought to the
surface there amount to about 24O.
pounds an acre. Spread out evenly,
this would make an appreciable an.
nual layer Darwin estimated that
the cestings Of FIVE years in England
wol cover the whole kingdom with
a aGyer Of new earth an inch thick
IN he Nile valley the layer would
doubtless be thicker were the worms
equally numerous and busy. as an.
pears to be the case. because the
proportion OF non-arable land there
is much less than in the British isles
1t must be remembered also that, ia
addition to the beneficial service OF
stirring up the soil, admitting air
and water more easily, and bringing
deep deposits to the surface. there
is a constant fertilization effected by

A SUGGESTION.

The State Journal offers the fol-
lowing suggestion as to a change
that ought to be made in the State
Constitution:
What we need is to get the State
Constitution changed so that land
taxes shall go exclusively to the use
of the communities in which they
are gathered, that a low rate may
be charged against personal proper
ty, credits, money, etc., and high
er one on land site values, and con-
stantly decreasing one on houses and
all forms Of improvements. Land
and its improvements ought never
to be taxed together. improvements
are what a mans own labor makes,
but land site values come entirely
from what the community and not
the individual owner, makes. The
use of the land is what people want,
yet the activities of the land specu-
lator and the man who holds land
out Of the market for rise, prevent
its full and untrammelled use."

trustees Of the Scotland Neck Grad
ed School, held Tuesday night, Prof.
C. Everett, Of Plymouth, N. c.
wass unanimously elected superin-
tendent for the coming school year,
succeeding Prof. J. B. Aiken, who
declined a reelection some months
ago. Prof. Everett is highly recon-
ded. and from what we have heard
Of him we think the selection a wise
one. He has served the school Z,
Plymouth the past ten years and liz
given the very best satisfaction.
Prof. Aiken has done we'll durir 2
his stay Of three years, taking !; /
things into consideration, and |
friends regret to see him leave. He
has several offers Of schools under
consideration, but has not yet de-
cided where he will go.
The teachers for the graded school
will be elected in the near future.
