PUBLIC PUNISHMENT. The Days of the Whipping Post, Stocks and Branding Irons. Up until the end of the war and a little while after the whipping post and stocks stood not far from the north west corner of the courthouse and be tween that building and the present postoffice, and there the last whipping took place, though as it began it was sought to be stopped by a federal offi cer. The sheriff was, however, simply carrying out tli mandate of the old court of pleas and quarter sessions. In those days the stocks and the whipping post, too. were special attrac tions. notably to Coys. The latter were allowed to ridicule people who sat in the stocks, which held their hands and feet, but not to throw anything at them. Of course this deprived the boys of some degree of pleasure. yet they con trived to get a good deal of fun out of the thing anyway. It seems odd now even to think of suclh scenes as these must have been. Figure to yourself passing by the courthouse green 'at Charlotte or Raleigh and seeing a gen tleman held by the ankles and wrists by wooden bars, sitting there in the sunshine for all the world to look at. Those were the days of 'the branding iron too. A set of gyves of iron, in use for holding the ankles or wrists, are on exhibition here. but of branding irons there are none. These were used here In January. 1863, for the last time. Raleigh Cor. Charlotte Observer. VANITY OF CONVICTS. The Way Some Men Spruce .Up In the Penitentiary. "The vainest lot of men I ever did know are behind these w all" remark ed a convict in the penitentiary. "For fastidious dressing and cleanliness I have never seen anything like it. Those who have been accustomed to sleeking up on the outside grow much worse in here, and those who never even combed their hair on the outside have ft as cleanly parted as they can. I know of a hundred instances where convicts have risked being paddled or having time taken away just for the sake of shaving. They get hold of a razor or improvise one and keep it in their cells. They all have mirrors in their cells along with the calendars. "I know of qne instance of a trusted prisoner who begged for weeks to be allowed to wear a hat instead of the prison cap because he thought he did not look well in it. Whenever they get an opportunity they press their trou sers. They save collars for Sundays and appear very clean and neat and nice in chapel. I guess it is all be cause they - have time to think about themselves more than ever. If a man has nothing but himself to think about he takes more pride in himself. Or maybe they want something with which to pass away the time in their cells." Columbus Dispatch. Blankets of Bark. In Ecuador, one of the South Ameri can republics, the bark of a tree which grows on the slopes of the Andes is utilized for the making of blankets. The blanket is over six feet long and ! over five feet wide and is as soft and pliable as though-it were made of flan nel. -It is about the thickness of a * good flannel blanket and can be rolled up and put in a strap without hurting or injuring It. This tree or bark blan ket is merely a strip of bark cut from a section of the trunk of the blanket or demajagua tree. The Indians make a cutting around the trunk to get it. and they prepare it by soaking it In water unti it issoft It is then pound-i -ed so that the rough outside can be stripped off and the inside alone left. The- inside is of fine fibers so joined together by nature that it makes a~ beautiful blanket, warm enough to be1 u sed as a cover and soft enough for a Dattress.' A Clock Case Made of Pennies. A 'novelty in clokenking consists of a timepiece whose ease is made of English pennies. The coins, of which there are ninety-six, all bear the date 1797 and were beaten out to almost -double their original size and then rivete~d together, while the figures were made of small strips of,copper cement ed -on to the face. The clock stands fourteen inches high and is eight inch es broad at the base. That "time is money'' is an adage withE which. we all noreor essagree. but this is a case in which the saying might be reversed. and still remain true.

AUSTRALIAN RAIN. When it Does Fali it Pours Down in a Perfect Flood. How different things are in the old world from what they are in the far away tropics! "They had no rain here for a fort night, and they called it a drought!" wrote an Australian from' Scotland in a scornfully superior tone calculated to induce the belief that it never rains in Australia and that droughts last a hundred years. -Not so. Australia is the land of contrasts. A drought has lasted for seven years. But what is there even in Scotland to compare with the 'persistency of Australian rain when it does see fit to fall? For eleven weeks without stopping did the rain continue to moisten the dry places of Sydney some years ago, washing out most cruelly the brief, bright season of winter, when the Aus tralian looks for living instead of ex istence and peace instead of pressure. And what rain! It shot from the clouds like arrows, and the whole world was a battlefield during that July. As the arrows darted into the earth the earth rose and dashed into the air, and rain and mud met and, grappled with each other day after day, night after night, week after week. And the battle was neither to the rain nor to the mud. A strange and horrid situation arrived. Sydney ran clean out of galoches. For two weeks not a galoche was to be had in the rain drenched city for love or money. Then a fresh shipload arrived from somewhere or other. And then-the rain stopped!-London Mail. One Trouble After Another. "I have just found out about the woman opposite me after two years of mystery and anxiety," said the fiat dweller. "She is a pretty, fat, rolly poly woman with a white complexion who sits at'her window half of her time doing nothing. She has a boy of about ten. Her life seemed so simple and still I didn't see how she lived. Evidently she didn't support a hus band, but who supported her? The thing worried me, but last night I found how it was. Her husband is a violin player who plays all night long at somle concert hall and sleeps the livelong day. I'd rather work for my living than keep the house quiet for a hus band who has to sleep all day, then gets up just at the time you want to go out for a little rollicking and plays the - violin somewhere." - New York Press. Gathering Roses. I've gathered .roses and the like in many glad and golden Junes, but now, as down the world I hike, my weary hands are filled with prunes.

When Great Britain's statute book was still in the Draconian state from which it was redeemed by Sir Samuel tomilly and the penalty of death was inflicted for the most trivial offenses, surgeons were exempted from serving on juries in capital cases. It must not be supposed, however, t that this was because their profession was believed to make them too humane for such work as was then imp'sed on f jurymen. We are sorry to say it was for the opposite reason. They were ex empted on the same ground as butch ers, whose occupation, it was thought. tended to make them too bloodthirsty. This ought not perhaps surprise us, since two or three centuries ago ex ecutioners not infrequently performed i su.gical operations. This seems to c have been particularly the case in Den mark. At any rate, we have more knowledge on this point in regard to that country than any other. I In Janus some time ago Dr. K. Caroe of Copenhagen published a number of i documents bearing on the subject. The i most ancient of these bears date July 24, 1579. and is a license issued by t Frederick II. to Anders Freimut, ex ecutioner of Copenhagen. granting him < the right to set bones and treat old i wours. He was expressly forbidden 1 fo meddle with recent wounds. In t 1009 it is recorded In the municipal I archives of Copenhagen that Gaspar. the hangman. had received 'four rigs- I dalers for the cure of two sick thil- 2 dren in 'the infirmary. In 163S Christian IV. summoned the executioner of Gluckstadt. in Holstein, to examine the diseased foot of the crown prince In a letter addressed to I Ole Worm. a leading Danish physi cian of the day. Henry Koster. physi I cian in ordinary to the king, complains I I bitterly of the slight thus put upon E him. He says that for two whole months the hangman. "who is as fit to I treat the case as an ass' is to play the t lyre," had the case in hand, and the doctor was not asked for advice, and, I although the ease went steadily from I bad to worse, the executioner received a fee of 200 rigsdalers and a large < silver goblet-"rewards," says the doc tor plaintively. "which the greatest F among us would not h:rre received had he succeeded in curing the prince I according to the rules of art." Again. in 1081. Christian V. gave a fee of 200 rigsdalers' to the Copen hagen hangman for curing the leg of a page. In 1G95 Andreas Llebknecht, the Copenhagen executioner, was in such repute or his treatment of dis ease that he wrote a- book on the i subject "In the name of the holy and ever blessed Trinity." In 1732 Bergen. an executioner in Norway. was au thorized by royal decree to practice surgery. Even up to the early years of the nineteenth century this extraordinary association of surgery with the last penalty of the law continued. ErIk peterson, who was appointed public 4 xcutioner at Trondhjem in 1796. served as surgeon to an irifantry regi ment in the war with Sweden and re tired in 1S14 with the rank of surgeon major. Frederick 1. of Prussia chose his favorite hangman. Coblenz. to be his physician in ordinary. It might be suspected that this pe culiar combination of functions. had Iits origin in a satirical view of the art of he.ling. but in thp records we have kuoted we can trace nothing of the kcind. Perhaps the executioner drove a trade in human fat and other things supposed to 'possess marvelous heal ing properties. He may thus have come to be credited with skill in heal iu, though the association surely rep 'resents the lowest degree to which the surgeon has ever fallen in public es- - teem and social position. Compared with the hangman, a gladiator and even an undertaker may be considered respetable.-British Medical Journal.

Enormous Losses Caused by the Sus pension of Operations and the Drift ing Away of Trade That Are Not Appreciated by the General Public. "I suppose you heard that Blank & ;o. were burned out from the roof to he basement last night?" remarks the nan in the car. "No-!" erclaims the friend who hasn't ;en the morning paper. "I suppose hey carried insurance?" "Oh, yes-a handred thousand of it!" -eturns the first speaker. at which his riend settles back with the comment hat everything is all right then. This is the layman's conclusion al nost invariably. Some big concern )urns out, but with insurance to an tmount seeming to cover the loss the Lverage man is disposed to feel that it s all right. He doesn't stop to think if the enormous risks of a business hich cannot be covered by insurance ad which for weeks. months or years Lfter a fire are crippling and perhaps -inous to the fire victim. Take, for example, a highly organ zed factory plant in prosperous times vhich has been turning out a vast pecialized product from the hands of housands of expert workmen. This >lant. fitted with- costly machinery, is overed by insurance upon its visible, naterial assets. Fire sweeps it and ays everything in hopeless ruin. If rvery piece of machinery. eyery build ng and all material adjuncts of the )lant have been covered to full value n such a plant, will the reader dare nake a rough guess as to what the imitations of loss may be? Only the other day I stepped into t bookbindery, unostentatious in Its street signs and occupying a fifth loor in an obscure street. In the ele ator shaft was that peculiar odor which marks the track of fire and fire nen days and weeks after such an Lecident. "Most of the fire was next door," ex )lained the proprietor, "but I guess he smoke and the water were about Ls bad for us. Sometimes it is almost >etter to. have the fire yourself thah )e next door to it." Which seemed to be especially true f book material. Where smoke and oot had failed to blot and' ruin the tock, water from the engines in the treet had flooded it until ruin alone vas descriptive. Everything had been closed down, workers 'in the plant were idle, and the proprietor was waiting the adjustment of the insur nce which h had been carrying. But n the extent of this insurance itself vas a knotty situation. Ordinarily the house had carried pol cies which would have left it the ninimum of risk on its machinery. ;tock and materials. Ordinarily a still urther blanket policy was carried for :he purpose of' covering the normal imount of book material, on hand >wned by others andmontra'eted for ebinding. 'But only a few days be ore the fire the house had received a ,nsignment of $5,000 worth of law ooks to be bound. These volumes, tside from intrinsic value, represented ;o much of other value as to make he risk abnormal for almost any sea ;on. And these books were ruined. Before receiving them the binder ind asked the owners to take out a olicy for themselves protecting them igainst such fire loss. The firm had 2t done so. and when the fire dam ue came the disposition of the owners nas to hold the binder for them under >ne of the binder's blanket policies. On this one disputed point, taking it into court. wvill some one make a pess as to what this one feature of :he ire may cost the binder, who to dl purposes was "insured." If it should e settled in the supreme court after le or seven years. for example? But in the case of the big manufac :ory, with its imported special machin ry. its season of rush work and its normus and fluctuating stock of ma :eral-if on the , morning after the ire the assuring companies settle In ull for the visible losses, how much ias the company been damaged? Of first consideration, perhaps, is the mcrous payroll of the concern. If ost of the mechanical work of the ,lant has been done by pieceworkers, till the necessary force of directing mployees on salary is a prol em. The ietermination of the owners s to start 2p anew. Tried and proved employees nust be retained while the work of ehabilitation goes on. They must be paid even If they are to do no more than walt. Settlement of some kind nust be made with contractors who ae been supplying raw materials !rom the hands of other thousands of 'orkers. N~o matter what the clauses x contracts providing immunity in ise of fires. strikes anfd acts of Provi ence, every line of business affecting :ze welfare of the manufactory has yeen affected. The plant Is a total loss. Before it an be rebuilt the ruins of the old fac :ory must be cleared away. In the meantime all those customers f the manufactory who have been ressing for the filling of contract or lers ind themselves shut out of any :hance for receiving them. They turn it once to other competing establish-i ents for the work.
