INFORM THE EDITOR.

One of the most difficult of the editors
jobs is to get facts about births, mar
RIGGS and, deaths. People seem to
think he ought to know these things
by intuition. II not that, the birth,
marriage or death is of such Importance
in the immediate family that it is pre-
sumed the editor will be informed by
some wireless or just grow into the in
formation. Then, when the paper
comes out, and no mention is made of
the event, the editor is blamed for not
running good newspaper or not gett-
ing all the news. Remember there are
a good many people IN this county. II
the editor knew each of them by name,
besides their family history and the
chef events in the lives of every indivi-
dual, he wouldn't be an editor. He'd
be- demi-god, resting his feet on a
cloud and slipping ambrosia instead of
inhabitlng a broken-doWn Office chair
and wondering where the money for the
next white paper bill is coming from.
The life of the average newspaper man
is a gay one. Gathering news is second
nature to him, like picking his teeth
with the office pen and cussing the
office towel. Just the same, there's a
a limit to his omniscience. Last week
we thought of a million, eight hundred
and forty mine thousand three hundred
and sixty four things of Importance,
besides couple of hundred thousand
small items unworthy of mention. And
1t was a slow week. We're anxious for
news for the paper. and it won't put
you out much to drop by the Office or
telephone us what's happening at your
house. Then if the item doesn't get in
the paper, you have a right to come
down and kick the stuffing out of the
cat. Otherwise, don't blame US.

AIDING the Memory.

Concentration and practice are the
chief needs in memorizing poetry and
dramatic lines, Competition seems to
be the best way to stimulate concen-
tration in children if they are not suf-

youngsters will find it most interest

time. A race to learn poem may be
as interesting as a hundred-yard DASH

RIP GIZZaR THD. 1EU,
PIZEN.

North Cardinals drastic prohibition
laws are being threatened seriously by
the new 'pizen" invented by the sons
of Hyde county. It is substitute for
corn liquor called "Meal Beer" or "trip
Gizzard." and is highly intoxicating.
1t is said to have the farfamed "licker"
which makes a jack-rabbit spit in a
bulldogs eye looking like a dose of
soothing-syrup. The recipe calls for
peck of meal, TO pounds of sugar and
two or three pounds of dried apples.
Five gallons OF water are added, and
the concoction is set back of the stove
or in the sun to ferment. In a few days
it has worked, and is then drawn off
ready for the consumer. Negroes are
making great quantities of "Trip Giz-
zard" and one of them, regarded as an
expert, offers the following method:
One gallon of meal, two gallons of water.
Put on the stove and boil. AS soon as
the mixture boils, add two pounds of
sugar. Pour into stone crock and let
stand a week, by which time it will
ferment. Add two pounds of sugar
and strain off. This recipe doesn't
require apples. Other makers use
dried peaches instead of apples, and
others use molasses. The Anti-Saloon
league and w. C. T. u. of North
Carolina are making strenuous efforts
to stop this new traffic in intoxicating
liquor. The mess is SO cheap that
many gallons aA being made, for
private consumption and for sale.
"Trip Gizzard" bids far to supplant
every substitute for liquor now being
sold in North Carolina.

ABANDONED NO.
MINT TO Be GIVEN TO
CITY BY CONGRESS
Adyices From Washington
to Effect That Government
Intends to Withdraw Sill
yer Stored There and Va
cate Building.

New Orleans is to receive handsome
present, if schemes now being laid dc
not go awry. The historic edifice which
has housed the United States mint since
1888 is to be turned over tc the city of
New Orleans for use as a hospital,
museum or any other public purpose
desired. This will require an act of
Congress, but it is understood that a
bill to this effect already has been
arranged to be introduced in the next
session.
The mint building is to be vacated by
the federal government within the next
few weeks. Since 1911 there has been
no coinage conducted ip New Orleans.
The mint building has been used as an
assay office. 1t vaults continue to be
used to store S22, 600, 900 in silver dollars
against which silver certificates have
been issued.
1t is the opinion of treasury officials
that there is no reason to maintain a
mint at New Orleans. Years ago before
the development of rapid transportation
facilities there was need for coinage
operations in New Orleans. This, they
claim, has passed.
The assay Office, which occupies only
a corner of the great edifice bounded by
Esplanade, Barracks, Decatur and Old
Levee streets, is to be naeEsd into the
customhouse. 1t will occupy portion
of the space formerly used by the post
Office. This is being overhauled at
present.
This change is being made owing to
the desirability of quarters near the
sub-treasury and in close touch with
other federal Offices.
The mint was established in Ngw Or
leans by an act of gangress, Ao4ch 8,
1895. The site was s by the city
of New Orleans. Tn Ailding
was completed in 1855 ylsions
of the structure are so a,,5 feet.
It's original cost was s182, 2,oN. Improve
ments were made from time ito time on
which s253,000 has been expended.
The mint is on the site of the old
Spanish fort of st. Charles.
Since it's foundation there has been
coined at the New Orleans mint money
to the value of S298. $50, ,707 go. Most
of this was coined previous to 1900.
Robert w. Wooley, the director of
the mint, visited New Orleans in May.
He looked over the ground at that
time, but could find no business reason,
he said later, for recommendation to
Congress for the continuance of the
mint. 1t had been decided previous
to that time to abandon the. old struc-
ture and he found no reason for ask ing
a re- reconsideration.
The matter also was taken up with
Byron w. Newton, the assistant secre-
tary of the treasury in charge of public
buildings. Both he and Mr.. Wooley
agreed that the federal goyernm ent
would have no further use for the
building. They have no first-hand
knowledge of the proposed bill to
provide for the giving of the edifice to
the city but could see NO objection.
