STATISTICAL COOPERATION.
Commissioner Shipman Succeeds in
Efforts 70 Enlist Government
CO-OperatiOn.

editorial Charlotte 0~bseryeF.l
The Observers Raleigh letter yes
terday carried information Of the ac-
ceptance of a plan worked out by
Commissioner of Labor Shipman
whereby there win be cooperation
between the Government and the state
Of North Carolina in the collection of
data in reference to the manufacturing
Industry Of this State. The ~calcula-
ton is that by Mr.. Shipman's plan
there will be a saving of $1,000 q year
TO State. That would be a very de-
.eirable end, but the more Important
feature would seem to be in the com
pleteness and reliability of the report
The Observer is a~ppreciative of the
difficulties that have attended the col
lection of mill statistics in North Car
Gina. In former times most Of this
work was attempted by correspon-
dence. and the Discrimination of bust
ness men to set to the task of filing
out a lot of blanks is well understood.
Mr.. Shipman, however. has been doing
much of the statistical collection
through personal efforts and the re-
salts have been showing Improvement.
If the new arrangement results in Civ
irg anything like an accurate size-up
of the manufacturing industries of
North Carolina, the small items saved
will be the lesser consideration.

The Koran.

In a recent number of the London
Everyman is review of the Koran
and its author Mohammed. 1t Is one
mans book, and that man not an i'm
aginative one, but essentially a man
of action and licking in invention.
The Koran is jumbled mass Of pre-
cepts, doctrines, threats, injunctlons,
divine commands, narrative, lyric and
epic poetry. Its heaven and hell are
too material for modern thought. "Ob-
viously," says Everyman, 1.-THE Koran
is meant not to be read with the eye,
but to be recited, when the repetitions
are not nearly so pronounced. 1t re-
fleets a social order, system of ideas
as remote from Rome and more espe-
cially from Greece, as our own are
from the North American Indian. But
neither time nor evolution can utterly
quench the fame of Mohammed's per
sonality, which carried his followers
to reckless excuses, to the SOW
ereignty Of empires which created an
art peculiar to Islam, and founded age
long traditions"

spoke.

was at loss for words. and then he
answered slowly.

THUMBS IN PIGS

This is a spadmodic or irregular
contraction of the diaphragm, and Is
due to an irritated condition of the
nerves supplying this organ. Diges-
tive disorders, especially overlooking
of the stomach, and lack of exercise
are the main causes. 1t OCCURS more
often with sloppy feeds.
The most pr minent symptom is a
jerking movement of the flank.
These jerking movements are ir-
regular and may be of such force
as to move the body backward and
forward.
They are more noticeable when the
pig is standing still, and usually oc-
cur shortly after full meal. The
affected pig soon becomes stunded
and very thin In flesh, often being az
fected with a chronic diarrahea.
Preventive treatment consists OF
providing plenty Of exercise. Pigs
turned out to pasture are very seldom
troubled. To relieve the spasm give
from five to fifteen drops of tincture
of opium in small amount of water
three times a day. A teaspoonful OF
caster oil should be given to prevent
constipation.

CHAPTER XVIII.

The high pass and the insurrectos
were behind them now and the rolling
iplains Of Aqua Negra were at their
feet To the northeast the smoke BAN
,ners of the Gadsden shelters lay like
ribbons across the sky, and the line
was not far away.
Yet, as they came down from the
mountains, Bud and Gracia fell silent
and slackened their slashing pace. The
time for parting was near, and part
ingB are always sad.
But ten miles across the plain lay
.Gadsden and Phil-Phil to whom Ora
ella was promised. There had been no
thoughts of him from the time they
sat together under the horse-blankets
waiting for the rain to pass until now
that the dangers were virtually over,
and but short time more would place
them beyond the reach Of either ru-
.rabs or rebels. Bud thought Of the
duty he owed his pardner, even though
that pardner had played him false.
Great as was his longing for Gracia,
he could not forget that duty. Their
companionship had been but a thing
to forget If he could, or at best he
could only remember the sweetness
of 1t, and must forget the dreams he
had dreamed as he watched beside
lGracia In the hills. He was taking her
to Phil, and all else must be sacrificed
for duty.
Bud looked far out across the valley
to where a train pulled in from the
south, and the sight of it made him I'm.
easy. He watched still as 1t lay at the
station and, after a prolonged stare in
the direction of Aqua Negra, he refined
sharply to the north.
What Is it?" asked Gracia, coming
out Of her reverie.
"Oh, nothing" answered Bud, slump.
ing down in his saddle. II see the rail.
road is open again-they might be
somebody up there looking for U.s."
you mean"
We'll, say bunch of rurales."
He turned still farther to the north
as he spoke and spurred his faded
horse on. Gracia kept her roam be-
side him, but he took no notice, ex-
cept as he scanned the line with his
bloodshot eyes. He was handbook
ing man now, with rough stubble OF
beard on his face and sullen set to
his Jaw. AS two horsemen rode out
from distant Aqua Negra he turned
and glanced at Gracia.
Seems like we been on the run
ever since we left Fortuna he said
with rueful smile. Are you good
for just one more?"
What is 1t nowT she inquired
pulling herself together with an effort.
Are those two men coming out to
meet US? Do you think they'd stop
usT
That's about our luck" returned
Hooker. But when we dip out of sight
in this swale here we'll turn north and
hit for the line"
"All right" she agreed. my horse
is tired, but I'll do whatever you say,
Bud"
She tried to catch his eyes at this,
but he seemed lost In contemplation of
the horsemen.
"Them's rurales." he said at last.

land don't shoot. I'm going to hold
'em up!"
He jumped his horse out to one side
and landed squarely on the rim OF the
ridge. Gracia drew her horse In be-
hind him and reached for the pistol In
her holster; then both together they
drew their guns and Bud threw down
on the first man.
60 on!" he ordered. motioning him
forward with his head; "pr-r-ronto!'
He jerked out his rife with his left
hand and laid 1t across his lap.
Hurry up now" he ragged, as the
startled Mexican halted. Go on and
keep going, and the first man that
makes break I'll shoot him full Of
holes!"
. He sat like q statue on his shining
horse, his six-shooter balanced to shoot.
and something in his very presence
the bulk of his body, the forward
thrust of his head, and the burning
hate Of his eyes-quelled the spirits
of the rebels. They were a rag-tag
army, mounted on horses and donkeys
and mules and with arms Of every
known make.
1t was just such an army as was
overrunning all northern Mexico, such
an army as had been levying tribute
on the land for century. They spread
terror throughout all that great coun-
try south Of the American border.
The fiery glances Of the American
made them cringe as they had always
cringed before their masters, and his
curses turned their blood to water. He
lowered above them like giant, pour.
ing forth torrent of oaths and beck.
oning them on their way, and the lead
er was the first to yield.
With hand half-raised and jaw on
his breast he struck spurs to his fright
ened mule and went dashing over the
ridge.
The others followed by twos and
threes, some shrinking, some protest
ing, some gazing forth villainously
from beneath their broad hats. AS they
looked back he whirled upon them and
'swore he would kill the first man that
dared to turn his head
After all, they were generation Of
slaves, those low-browed, unthinking
poems. and war had not made them
brave. They passed on, the whole
line Of bewildered soldiery, looking in
vain for the men that were behind the
American, staring blankly at the beau
itiful woman who sat so courageously
by his side.
When the last had gone by Bud
picked up his rifle and watched him
around the point. Then he smiled
grimly at Gracia, whose eyes were still
round with wonder, and led the way
down the trail.
