THE STORM ATS A NTUC.
The U orst That Has Ever Visited
That Set tion?<Srent Damage to
Crofts, elc-Seighhorltotsi yews,
"It's lack i<; contideiico 'lis said,
I Folds us o'er hard times abyss,
Tin* si*!I-s.>.ih' lack kioj?s many a chap
Frnin a lun^ wished for kiss."
It has boon very cool for several
days, especially at morning, the tcmKerature
g"ing as low as li> degrees,
lucli too cool for cotton, some of
which has died out.
There h a great deal of complaint
of there being a hard matter to get
an even stand of cotton and corn too,
in places.
The rain last week was very beneficial
to some sections, but very danr
aging in others. Corn has made a
start to grow but cotton is somewhat
puay from cool nights.
Kcv. (J. 1'. Hums, the pastor of the
Methodist church here, has been at
Carlisle for two weeks very sick, but
is now able to come home.
M iss Nora Thomas suffered for
quite awhile with a felon on her
finger, but it is fast getting well.
Miss Ethel Jeter, who has been at^
tending school at Salem, N. C., returned
home last week to spend vacation.
There is, and has been, much in.
disposition among the people, nearly
everyone having had a portion, more
or less, of a "bad spell."
An unusual thing here is a turkey
hen carrying a gang of young chickens.
These are the property of Mrs.
J. S. Crocker, of this town.
I guess the turkey and chickens understand
each others language now.
Last week the children of hong
Dawkins, colored, killed a rabbit that
was nearly white. It was white unilni'ciiln
-1,1.1 mill- li-nl -l li-rlif liflUVH
back ami a stripe on each side of its
head, having a while face. I have
seen many Fnglish rabbits just like
it, and it inav have been an escaped
English rabbit or a cross between
them and our hares.
There are rumors of picnics, and 1 i
believe one is "booked" to be here in
a few days. The sell ol girls will all
be home soon and will have excellent
opportunities for outings.
Fanners through the storm swept '
section have been busy since the rain '
planting over their cotton crop. All
their work and money on the first
planting were entirely lost.
There is much complaint of the
potato bug destroying the potato
patches, and tlu-y arc outw itting the i
truckers two to or.e. The morning
after the great hail storm they!
were still in the ting >'.tting on the \
stubs of potatoes lric by the hail.
Some of the oldest men in this I
section say 'he storm of last Monday I
the '22 lii 1. the wm t hat. rbcv h.*id I
ever seen. It is ? nnewhat of sadness
to look up >1: tl'.r complete destruction
of crops. The rain and hail poured
in a spoilt it seems and the face of
the earth was a sheet of water, and
the rain being driven by wind of
almost eyef he i ropnrtions packed the,
land harder titan it has been this'
year. Trees are trimmed of their j
foliage, and many limbs twisted and
broken. The beautiful grove around (
the Salem llaptist church seems to ,
have iveeivi I the severest of the blow. |
The windows of the church were |
badly damag. d. some having nearly i
every jane <>l glass broken. The j

man Wilson, Latimer and Finley of
this Stute spoke too. ?o did Major
John F. Jones, ol Blacksburg. Rev.
J. D. Bailey, of Cowpcns made an
historical address. The best of order
prevailed. The local authorities took
precaution of swearing in several
policemen to keep order and the
general committee provided marshals
to see that the ladies were seated.
Barrels of ice water were on hand to
<|uench the sting of thirst, l'icnty
to eat had been provided. Each
family or neighborhood coming together
and making a picnic and inviting
friends. Thus the whole crowd
who had brought no dinner were provided
for by others.
The speeches were all tame and
bore strictly on the Revolutionary
wur and its attendant circumstances,
both before and after. And the
general verdict was that Cowpons
battle ground should be converted
into a national park.
To our list of Revolutionary heroes
it was our pleasure to add 'juite a
number of other names we hadn't got
before.
The grounds the evening before
the celebration presented ijuite a
novel aspect. The woods covering
the battle ground looked as if they i
had been converted into one large |
bivouac. Wagons, buggies, tents,'
horses, mules and other species of
paraphernalia necessary to make a
camp outfit was on the ground, in.if.

ciuuing many tames in ouggies, wag- |
ons, etc..
The large stage, capable of seating
1 dO person-1, was beautifully decorated
with the national colors and a
perfusion of evergreens. The present
monument erected by the Daughters
of the Revolution, and Washington
Light Infantry in was draped
in the constitutional red. white and
blue. The national colors floated
triumphantly at the top of a massive
ilag staff. < h er the speaker- stand .

HE TOOK THE ADVICE.
Concluded to Be <t Leader ?ud Surprised
Ills lather.
The boy had got Into trouble niul the
old gentleman had taken libit to task
for it with considerable severity.
*'I just followed the other boys." lie
pleaded, "and did what they did."
"That's worse than no excuse ?t
all." returned the old gentleman.
"That indicates that you haven't any
independence or individuality. I want
you to lead and not to follow. The
leaders are the people who count in
this world, and I want you to be a
leader. 1 never want to hear again
that you have followed the other boys
into trouble."
The boy promised that he would follow
this advice and results showed
that lie lived up to his promise. When
he was next before his father for
getting into trouble his face was
wreathed with smiles.
"It's all right this time," he said.
"All right this time!" exclaimed the
old gentleman. "Why, it's worse than
ever. Accoriliug to the complaints
coining in from the neighbors you have
iii iu more inisonict 111 tne last
two days tlian over before."
"Hut 1 didn't follow anybody," protested
the boy: "1 led."
"Worse and worse," returned the
old gentleman.
"Why, you said you wanted me to
be a leader," asserted the boy.
"What has that to do with all this
deviltry V"
"Kverythinj?," answered the boy.
"There ain't but one way to be a leudor
that I know of."
"And what is it?"
"Why, to size up which way the
crowd's iijr to go and then travel at
little faster than any one else in that
direction."
The old gentleman stopped in his
search for the eatue he had Intended
to use. atnd which the boy had carefully
hidden, llis eyes opened wide
with astonishment, and he gasped once
or twice before he wais able to speak.
"That boy," lie said at last, more to
himself than any one else, "is born
to go into politics, and there's no use
trying to whale it out of him."
Klligei' S|,,.,Kh for School Children.
In the old Haines' schools in country
districts, even so late as ."?< or 00 years
ago. there was always kept on the
desk, side by side with the birch, a
pair of linger slocks, as the children
went up iu turn to the desk to repeat
their lessons, they were each obliged
to put on these stocks.

The hands were placed behind the
back, and the four lingers of eaeh

shoulders brought well hack, the ehild
in this position was absolutely helpless,
and entirely at the nierey of the old
dame, should she be inclined to use
the bii'eli or box the ears of any delinquent
seholar.
These li tiger-stocks were also used
as a mode of punishment, the children
having to stand with their hands
lixed in tliem for an hour or more at
a time.
Although they do not look a very
formidable method of torture, it only
remains for them to be tried to satisfy
the iiuiHirer of their efficacy.
The lingcr-stocks lu re illustrated are
the actual size of the picture. They
came from a remote village in Wales,
and are made of limewood, tied together
with old brown ribbon.
I'eiii'H ot Animal*.
If scientists are to be trusted, it is
a mistake to suppose that the lives of
animal-: are peaceful and happy.
Worms are in constant terror of
birds. The smaller birds are never
free from dread of hawks, or owls or
eats, t'ais are afraid, not only of their
ancient enemy, the dog,.luit of the
wicked small l>oy who throws stones.
Itogs are afraid of one another and in
mortal terror of cows.
Horses are haunted by the swish of
the whip. Sheep appear to suffer from
a constant prevision of the luuelicr.
Sprats are tortured by the expectation
of being swallowed by the mackerel

JEWELS OF ALUM.
How to Muko Ttiein Tor Clmiades ami
Ainulfiir Tlicnt rli-aW.
A very pretty and amusing way of
making jewelry to he used in the prodm-tion
of charades or in juvenile
amateur theatricals is here shown.
Dissolve a pound of alum in a quart of
hot water and suspend in the saturated
solution a crown or s une other shaped
form mado of wire and covered with
strips of tlnnncl or wound with woolen
threads. In order to obtain the very
best results it is necessary to select a
vessel of glass with an even, highly
polished inside surfnee, which must
remain undisturbed for twenty-four
hours ill a quiet place alter the solu
I tioii of alum has been poured in and
the article to he covered with crystals
I has been suspended so as to hang free
I in tlie solution without touching on
' silly stile. A cool room is preferable,
for tlio crystals covering the wire will
iln'ii lir larger aim more brilliant.
At lor remain in;; twenty-four hours
in iho solution tlio artiele. now oovoroil
with oryslals. ran be withdrawn. anil
will keep indefinitely in a dry plao".
Tlio addition of sonio elieniieals will
result in very lino oolor ell'oets: thus
tlio use o. iron alum will hring forth
very line blue erystals. ami chrome
alum eipially lino yellow ones. Tin
simplest auditions for coloring tin
crystals, while not i ringing almut lim
results, are a few drops of ordinary
nine-black writing ink or of a solution
of litimtis. which can easily l?e obtainI'd
in any drug store.
A sclent illi- I'.i/./le.
The problem is to see how litany
coins can be dropped into a wine glass
tilled ipiite to I lie brim with wab t
without making the water overtlow.
Wore you to be told tiiat the glass will
hold as many as twenty ipiarteis ?>i
shillings alter it is iptito full of watoi
you would all shout. "Impossible;"
however, a trial will prove to you the
truth of this surprising statement
Wipe the glass dry so that not a ves
tige of moisture clings t<> it oil her in
side or out; then, with a vessel having
a spout, till it slowly and carefully
witli water to the exact brim. Now
with steady hand very gently drop in
the coins. holding them edu'ewis . As
soon as the coin touches the water let
it fall, so that as little disturbance as
possible will be made. As each coin
jjues in the water rises a trilie above
the brim until its elevation is readily
perceptible to the eye. Of course,
there conies a time when just one more
coin will make it overtlow. but you i-.-in
stop Just before this Ill's. The
scientific explanation of this int itsiing
experiment is that the "attraction
of gravity" is nor so "treat as the "ro
liesive attraction" of the water that
is to say. up to a certain point. Sous
day this will be made clearer to yon.
but just now you can amuse yourself
with the fact.
