His promotion to a superintendency is another evidence that the Piedmont Mills have been a practical Southern textile school for 20 years and more. It has been a habit for the majority of cotton mills in that region to send to Piedmont for their overseers and superintendents. ——— —. ——- Mark Ttvaln’a Generosity. At one time, when the distinguished writer, Richard Malcolm Johnston, bad been prevailed on to give a reading in Baltimore, Thomas Nelson Pago volun teered to assist him, but a death in Mr. Page’s family prevented him from ap pearing in the entertainment. Mark Twain beard of it. The people of Baltimore had long wished to have Twain appear there, bnt he had stead fastly refused to resume his lectures. But he went on that occasion, for be appreciated the genius of Richard Mal colm Johnston, and, desiring to honor him, he left New York, at a great per sonal sacrifice, and appeared with him on that occasion. There was never such a crowded house in a Baltimore theater. When the entertainment was over, Colonel Johnston, with his accustomed fairness and courtesy, tendered Twain the bulk of the receipts. “No,” said Mark, “not onecentshall I receive. It is such a great honor to know a man like yon that I am tho one who owes you the debt of gratitude.” “Well,” said the colonel, “at least let mo defray your expenses;” “I have a through ticket,” said Twain. “Goodby and God bless you!” That was Mark Twain!—Atlanta Con stitution. Swlninilnir Leaaon Failed. It was winter time, and the son of a tobacconist wanted to learn to swim. His father told him if ho would learn the stroke on the floor and - practice it during cold weather ho would bo able to swim right off when ho jmnpod into the water in summer. At lust summer came, and the father and two sons went to a pond. The fa ther went over the hill to look after some stock while the boys were going in swimming. His last instructions to the young man were to just jump in and go ahead—he could swim all right. This the boy proceeded to do. When the fa ther, returning, came in sight over the hill, he saw tho older boy almost split ting his sides laughing and the other on a log coughing np water, wiping his eyes and as mad as a hornet. “Father,” said the older boy, “you’ll have to whip Sam.” "What for?” asked the father. “He said you were the biggest liar in Montgomery county.” The boy went to the bottom on the first lick.—Clarks ville (Tenn.)

Bird Entered and Robbed. Blacksburg, Nov. 15th.—Early this morning, a resident of this place, while passing the store of D. R. Bird on the X. E. corner of Hhelby and Carolina str\ets, noticed an old straw hat, a pair of new pants and shoes on the sidewalk. Pausing and pondering over what the things meant at that place, he happened to look at the store and noticed that the glass in the front door was shattered. Suspecting that the store had been burglarized, he immediately notified Mr. Bird. Upon that gentleman's arrival the door was examined and the glass was found to have been completely knocked out and blood spattered on the pane. Upon an ex amination of the store, it was found that some one had entered through the front door, by the breaking of the glass, and helped him or themselves to what was desired and departed through the back door, leaving a pair of shoes marked with blood and one black stocking. Chief of Police Dun can was at once notified and the news spread rapidly. It was soon discov ered that some one leaving the store from the back with one stocking off, had gone to a place known as “Chink Row” and left an old suit of clothes with the right hand pocket of the pants soaked with blood, some under wear that was new and evidently be ing too small, had been split by a knife and removed, and a black stock ing followed by the discovery, of a partition in a new valise smeared with blood. The Chief of Police had by this time placed his dogs upon the trail, and was heading towards Earl Htation, in company with a Mr. Bridges, a partner of Bird. Before they arrived at that place however, the Chief became satisfied that he was on the wrong trail and went to Grover. There he found that a ne gro, dressed in a new suit with one hand cut had been to tho station early that morning and hud left a new valise to be shipped to one John Robinson at Charlotte. Taking pos session of the valise and breaking it opened, Mr. Bridges found some of the goods that were missing from the store. Feeling confident that they were then on the right trail. Chief Duncan and Mr. Bridges, continued in the direction the negro had been seen to go. Every once and a while they would get some assurance of a negro dressed in a new suit and with a cut hand, just having passed. They at last got a glimpse of their man near Kings Mountain, but being in a buggy concluded to go to the station and get horses. Up to this lime, except from Blacksburg to Earls, they had not let the dogs loose, so when they had gotten horses at the station and returned to the place where they had last seen the negro, they let the dogs loose, and, after a short but exciting chase caught their man. To night he is in the lockup at this place and has made a full con fession, to the effect that he entered the store a little before the north bound train, through the front door, the glass of which he broke with a biick, and that after taking what he wanted wrnt over to “Chink Row”, changed his clothes and left for Gro ver.
