THE POPOSED CANAL.
On Wednesday of this weak tho
war department recommended to con-
gress the immediate appropriation of
$20000000 to dig a ship canal across
New Jersey from New York Day to
the Delaware river.
This canal is to ho a part of the
proposed inland waterway from Bo-
ton. Mass. to Beaufort on tho North
Carolina coast. Such an Inland rotito
has long been contemplated and de-
sired because of the dangers that
beset tho shipping along the cast
coast of the country. Various sounds
and bays Indenting the coast arc to bo
made links In this chain connections
between them being by artificial
channels Mich as the canal spoken
of above.
The original idea was the connec-
tion of New York with llenufort but
the plan seems to have been extend-
ed. The Delaware? river was to uu
joined artificially with the head wat-
ers of the Chesapeake Hay and a ship
dodging out tln nce between the capes
was to find a route prepared behind
the Islands nnd reefs that gird tho
North Carolina coast and so through
these broadened and deepened inlets
to' run into Albemarle and Plmllco

WHITE HOPES IN

DISCIPLES OF BLACKSTONE IN-
DULGE IN BLOODLESS BATTLE
IN COURT.
"If any of you embryo "White
Hopes' think you can get away with
uuy of that rough stuff in my court
you have another guess coming" said
Judge Freeman yesterday afternoon
when he commanded the sheriff to
take charge of a pair of belligerent
lawyers who had a mix-up while ar-
guing a casei and to keep them in
custody until further orders In the
meant imo turning the case over to
the jury for their ieclslon.
Whether it came up over a point
of law or a iioint of order was not
learned anyhow assistant county at-
torney Hardy took exception to a re-
mark of Attorney .1. II. Champion
and "Joe Pen" retaliated with a siwft
punch that lacked steam but was nn

Uefore the court realized what wns
being pulled off the belligerents had
exchanged several slaps on each oth-
ers wrists and were separated by
attendants with no further damage
than a ruffled temper and a slight dis-
arrangement of collars and ties.
The judge commanded the sheriff
to take charge of them and to pre-
sent them in his court at ten o'clock
last night when he would dispose of
their cases.
"Joe Hen" protested that that hour
was too late as ho had made it a
practice all his life tff retiring early
and it would seriousy discommodo a
lifelong habit. The judge told him
to remain perfectly e.uiet'and do just
as the s-heriff told him to do or he
would be sorry. At ten last night
they were brought into the presence
of thi! judge who proceeded to give
them a tew lessons on court proce-
dure) piinc'tnatting h'.s lesson with
good advice and wound up by fining
each in the sum o)f ten perfectly good
dollars.

some trouble gifting a suitable ex-
hibit for the state fair at Oklahoma

ed to make a creditable showing or
lion; at all and wants tho co-operation
of every farmer in the county
in acclimating this exhibit.

Our friends and Enemies.
The things which our friends dc
with and for us form a part of oui
lives for they strengthen and advance
our personality. But the things which
our enemies devise against us do not
form part of our lives; we only ex-
perience them reject them and guard
ourselves against them as against
frost storms rain hail or any other
external inconvenience which may be
encountered. Goethe.
Another' CorhpTaTht Recorded.
A woman Journalist tells us that in
a collection of recent poetry there
1 are poems of dust rags fish and tea
j and that "woman alone has failed to
fan the poetic fires." She attributes it
to the fact that woman has descended
from her pedestal into the "hurly
burly of life."
Ald for Short-Sighted.
A German doctor has devised a revo-
lutionary method of correcting poor
eyesight. It is a telescope speciaele
and is claimed to be the best and
healthiest method for a near-sighted
person to bring objects close to the
eyes and thus see well at a distance.
The glasses are a combination of a
convex objective with a concave eye-
piece and have to be fitted most care-
fully to each person.
Sure Enough.
"So you depend on recognition from
posterity?" said Mr. Dustin Stax.
"Yes" reined Mr. Penwiggle. "An-

worthy and desirable than that of
the present public?"
