FOR INLAND WATER PASSAGE A natter of Vital Importance Affect ing North Carolina Commerce. A m atter of' very decided interest to N orth C arolina transpired Tuesday w hen th e S ecretary of W ar transm it* ted to Congress th e report of th e 3x*- cimlnatlon and survey ci th e proposed inland w ater-w ay FrbSi N brfolk to B eaufort inlet, This great project, in behalf of which Congressm an Sm all has w rought so effectively, on ly received in a m easure th e approval Of the engineers. The fact w as set forth th a t there w ere num erous alter native locations subject to the con sideration of th§ board of Sngineersi and th a t the roiU£ selected—via Coopi er CreSK, Rose Bay* Adams Creek gnd B eaufort inlet—cov£red a total distanco of about 200 miles. It is es tim ated . th a t the w ork of construct ing a 16‘foot channel, as contem plat ed in Mr. Sm all’s bill, woul& aggre gate $10,000,000, and th a t $150,000 would have to be spent annually on m aintenance. The special board of engineers, in their report subm itted several m onths ago, estim ated th at the cost of the project w as not out of proportion to present and prbspec* live commerce, but the regular board for rivers and harboFs, in the report m ade public today, expresses the opinion th at it is not advisable to un dertake the construction of the w ater way w ith a channel not less than 16 feet in depth, bu t th e belief is ad vanced, th a t a channel of less depth would be a great advantage to com m ercial traffic and the m ilitary inter* ests involved, and th e recom m enda tion is m ade th a t a hew inquiry be m ade by Congress, w ith a view to ascertaining the cost of a channel 10 of is feet deep, and of suitable width. The rep o rt' says it is ques tionable w hether the protection offer ed by the proposed canal which would enable vessels to avoid Cape H atter- as. would offset the hazards of enter ing between th e capes of Chesapeake during storm y w eather, and the ex pense of tow age through canal and consequent loss of tim e. Tho present coast-wise com merce between N orth and South A tlantic ports is carried on by sailing vessels and steam ers, and doubt is expressed w hether any con siderable num ber of the larger ves sels would forego th e advantages of cccan navigation for the restricted canal route. Ju st now, w hile the expansion of the navy is receiving so much atten tion from Congress and the country, another part of the report will be read w ith peculiar interest. The val ue of the proposed water-way, for purposes of coast defense, it is stated, is undoubted,'btit it would by no m eans be considered a constant mil itary quantity. In th e days e t th e sm all navy, containing m any craft built prim arily for coast /,''#cnse, such a water-w ay would have Leen of m ore value than at this tim e, when our naval strength is com ing to be m easured in battleships and arm ored cruisers of deep draft, capable, under some circum stances, of seeking the enem y on its own coast, and compel led to defend possessions rem ote from our seaboard. W hile the Con gress will some day, oncourage a schem e less pretentious, th e follow ing letter of Chief M acKenzie, of the board of engineers, would indicate th a t the advocates of the enterprise will have to alter present plans: ‘‘I concur in the view of the board of engineers for rivers and harbors that it is not advisable for the U nited States to expend $10,000,000 in con structing a channel 16 feet deep from Norfolk to B eaufort In let/' No D am age AUowed.

The judgm ent w as af firmed w ith costs and the cause was rem anded to the Circuit Court of the U nited States for the w estern d istrict of N orth Carolina. U nder th e decision Mrs. Jam es cannot enforce the judg m ent for dam ages rendered by the State courts-to tb e am ount of $15,000 against the W estern N orth Carolina Railroad, nor can Mrs. Howard realize on ih e $5,000 verdict.

T his is a very sickly clim ate, on the B ayou Bartholom ew , Dear tlie A rkansas River. I t is particularly m alarious and m iasm atic; we meet w ith m any and various abnorm al conditions of th e hum an fam ily; prominent am ong the cases Jn w hich I have been called upon to prescribe ifc UUhiey disease. M any of these disorders m anifest them selves by pains in the hack, often extending to other p arts of th e body; som etim es headache is present, caused by uraem ic or chronic uric acid poisoning, soreness in region of kidneys, cloudy, thickened an d foul-sm elling urine, discharges of pus or corruption; inflam m ation of th e kidneys, extending to the bladder, is caused by cxtfss of uric acid and decom position of the urine. H em orrhage is some* times met w ith, caused by high state of inflam m ation or congestion. There is no class of diseases a doctor is called ofteher to tre a t than the variety of lridiiey diseases, in m any of w hich the patien t w ill have chills or rigors, IoJloived by fever, a resu lt of the kidneys failing to elim inate the uric Jicid poison from the system . Such cases require th e kidneys restored to their natural functions, then th e poison and foreign substances are rem oved— fchock to the nervous system averted and uatural health restored. I have, for some tim e, been using D oan’s K idney F ills in these m any majijfe&iatious and w ith uniform success, curing m ost cases. I can further say that even iu hopeless cases w here they have w aited too long, D oan’s Kidney rills afford m uch relief and prolong life. I can recom m end th e pills In conditions of excessive or deficient secretion of urine, as also In conva lescence from sw nm p-ferer and m alarial attacks, as verified by the following CJiscs in my practice. CASE I. Tnos. ORELr,, Bear, Ark., age 60. Pain in back for several weeks, then chills, irregular sometimes, M.'rcre Yiqots followed by fever. Gave, good purgative of calomel and padopn, and Doan’s Kidney' Pi||s. Alter taking four boxes of the pills, patient up and enjoying good health. * for one. of his age. CASE 2. Mrs. Sm ith, Tarry, Ark., age 29, mother of four children. Had female complaint and kidney trouble, manifest by pain in back and urine irregular; sometimes very clear, changing to cloudy, and with much sediment* on standing m chamber. ‘ Gave’ local treatm ent tor female complaint and prescribed Doan’s Pills; after using six boxes she regards herself as cured.. CASE 8. B ro w n E a k ? . Wynne, Ark., aw 21. Had severe case of malarial hoemataria or swamp fever. Gave necessary liver medicine, calomel and padoph, and morpli.-sulph., to relieve pain, and ordered Doan s Pills for the high state of conges tion and inflammation of the kid neys. Recovery resulted in two weeks. Prescrdied Doan’s K idnw Pills, to be coiraimed until tbe kidneys were thoroughly strengthened and ail pain in back subsided. CASE 4. E l tj a h E l l i o t t , Tarry., Ark.. age 34. Pain in back and legs and headache. Uric-acid poisoning. Prescribed Doan’s Kidney Pills. After taking several boxes pain subsided —urine became normal, or natural, and patient able to resume his work. These are a few of the typical cases in w hich I have used Doan s KnJney Pills. In a great m any Instances I use them alone w ith curative results, while with some others indicated remeilies are associated. . • . I believe th a t by the Judicious use of D oan’s P ilts m any serious compli cations are arrested and m any hopeless and Incurable eases of B right s disease I have often found th a t one box of the pills is all th a t is required to effect a cure, bu t in sonic cases I continue their use until all sym ptom s are entirely absent and the cure effectual and perm anent.

The annual exportation nearly touched tb e $1,000,000,009 line in 3891 and 1892, being in 1891, $970,000,000, and In 1892, $938,000,000. bu t dropped to $876,000,000 in 1893, $823,000,000 in ISOU $S24,000,000 In 1893, barely cross ing th e $1,000,000,000 line in 1890, but moving steadily and rapidly forw ard since th a t date. Com paring conditions in 1003 w ith those of com paratively recent years, it m ay be said th a t tiic total exports in 1003 exceeded those of 1891 by fifty-three and those of 1895 by eighty per ceut.

O wing to the very m arked decrease in im ports in Decem ber, w hich m onth show ed a fall of about $17,000,000, as com pared w ith D ecem ber of the previ ous year, th e total of im ports did not touch th e . billion-dollar line, as had been expected, b n t w as w ithin about $4,500,000 of th a t sum , being $995,473,101.

The prea cher aud editor of the Baptist Stateorgan virtually, in the above paragraph, sustains our conten tion, aud vindicates us of the charge ol' tlie Democratic press of slandering the South. Mr. IHxou ot Montana, a North Caroliniau who now represents Mantanain Congress, said at the reunion at Greeusbir.) last year, 1 hat intolerance drove him fn.m the State, and it was virtually ad mitted by certain of t.ie Drfin jL-rat- io press, that Mr. Dixon told the truth.

W bca Dcmocrtttc Bevioed the TarIfl Downward and W ithdrew Protection Every Eeading Business Enterprise SuiTered Froin Shock and Paralysis. “H ow to kill industry:-” This ques tion has been appropriately answ ered by the A m erican Economist. I t says: “Vote the D em ocratic ticket.” T he people of M ontana learned th a t lesson so thoroughly during th e years following 1803, w hen th e D em ocrats cam e into pow er, th a t they know it by heart. They learned it through hunger and suffering, through business fail ures and bank accounts sw ept out of existence. Through w eary years tiiey ate tho husks of poverty and hard tim es, forced upon them by the bitter hostility of the D em ocrats in Congress tow ard th e leading industries of the State. TheirA ndom itable energy and th e w onderful resources of the country enabled them to w eather th e dreadful industrial storm th a t cam e upon them im m ediately upon th e election of Cleve land as President. Silver and lead, wool and hides, barley and coal—every thing had to go dow n under the im pla cable hostility of the D em ocratic Ad m inistration. XVhat ludustry of the S tate w as there th a t w as not sought to be stricken dow n by Cleveland? It is w ithin th e memory of everybody th a t a blow th a t practically m eant the destruction of every leading business enterprise of M ontana w as aim ed a t our people by tho D em ocratic Admin istration a t W ashington. L ead m iners had to go out of busi ness. Silver m iners w ere com pelled to seek other fields of activity.

A deadly blow w as aim ed a t tbe cattle industry by the attem pt to take tho tariff off hides, thus bringing our stock m en into direct com petition w ith the unequal conditions of South A m erica anil A ustralia. Tes1 Ihe people of M ontana have not forgolteu these thjngs. A good m any of them are scarcely ou t of debt to this day by reason of the business dis aster brought upon them by . th e na tional policies of the D em ocratic party, and some of them are still paying for “dead horses” w hich they accum ulated during those pleasant years o f “Cleve land and D em ocratic reform !” Xrca. verily!

R eferring to th e popular phrase “stand pat,” Governor Cum m ins said in bis inaugural: “I have never been it disciple of th e doctrine expressed in a phrase th a t has now become famous, and th a t m eans let w ell enough alone.” T hat is the view E ve took of the situa tion in the G arden of Eden w hen Satan suggested a “reform ,” and it resulted in lots of trouble for m ankind. It is, in effect, th e view th a t Napoleon took w hen he ignored the rem onstrances of his generals to let well enough alone and iuvaded Russia, followed by the dow nfall of the em pire. I t is a view often taken in hum an affairs w ith dis astrous results. T he advice to let well enough alone is ju s t Bow good for Co lom bia: it is good for the anti-I’anamii D em ocrats; it is not w ithout its benefi cent features for th e Governor of Iowa. M uch of the im port of the phrase de pends upon its interpretation. XVhen anything is “well enough” it is practi cally as good as it cau be made. The G overnor has conceived in his mind how the tariff can be m ade better, but neither he nor anybody else has any w ay of know ing In advance th a t it really w ould im prove American social, industrial and com mercial conditions. A nd w hatever may be the Governor’s idea of a tariff, he knoxvs, and w e all know, in advance, th a t it is not the tariff w hich Congress w ith its many conflicting xiews and interests would adopt. T hen w hat would it be? Nobody knows. And so the Republican party as a whole and th e great m ass of the people are saying: “XX’e are doing pretty well under th e present tariff; a change m ight be disastrous. XX’o are disposed to let well enough alone.” A nd'there fore they are standing pat —Burling ton H aw keye. HOW TWO BEAUTIFUL WOMEN ESCAPED DREAD CATARRH BY USE OF PE-RU-NA.

HccitHOvilx W birfi Boes Sot Involve Com petition XVfi b Uomestic Viwl ucttt. Minislet- Thom pson, vrlio represents the U nited States a t Rio do .Janeiro, lias ju st concluded a reciprocity ar rangem ent w ith B rtuil. I t is the right sort ot reciprocity, since it secures fair treatm ent by B razil and does not pro vide for ipcreased com petition in “a r ticles which xve ourselves produce.” Eor years the U nited States has been getting th e w orst of a one-sided situa tion. XX'e have adm itted B razilian cof fee and crude rubber to th e extent of nearly 8100,000,OOQ a year free of duty, and for years B razil has exacted tariff paym ents 011 all articles im ported from th e U nited States. As th e result of this unfair state of things xve have lately been buying of B razil nearly ten tim es as m uch as xve sold to th at couutiT. M inister Thom pson has changed all this. H e has succeeded in convincing th e B razilian G overnm ent th a t the Uni ted States w as entitled to better tre at m ent. Accordingly he has obtained from Brazil tariff concessions on im ports from th e U nited S tates, am ount ing to thirty-txxro per gent, on flour and tw enty per cent, each on rubber goods, still w ines, clocks, w atches, condensed milk and paints and varnishes. In re tu rn w e are asked to concede nothing In addition to w h at w e have for years conceded. XVe do not slaughter any dom estic industry iu th e nam e of reci procity; xve do not adm it any com peti tive products; w e do not fool aw ay auy p art of our x-aluable hom e m arket; w e m erely keep on adm itting free of duty such of B razil’s products as are not and cannot be produced in onr oxvn country. I t is believed th a t under this w ise and sensible arrangem ent our ex ports to Brazil w ill increase from $10,- UOO1OOO to $30,000,000 annually. A gain »ve say this is reciprocity of the right sort, of th e only sort th a t th e U nited States should consent to. “ Pooef Sufftoriufl Cuba! ’ A story is told by Asher H inds. (Be parliam entary expert of the Xlouse,' which aptly illustrates the view held by tbe late Thom as B. Reed regarding th e Cuban reciprocity business: "I w ent dow n there ix-ith Speaker Reed,” said H inds. “Reed alxvays w as opposed to the Cuban business iu all Hs branches. Reed drove around tbe city and one night w ent to see Jai Aial played—th a t gam e on w hich the < bans gam ble madly. H e xx’alked.into th e fronton, xvas show n his seal and looked around xvith much interest. At one end of tho court there xvas an im m ense blackboard on w hich tho bets w ere recorded. Reed inquired all about th e gam e, and had its gam bling features explained to him. “ ‘H ow much has been staked so fa r? he asked. “T he guide looked afethe board and said th a t 89000 w orth of m utual tickets bad already been bought. •• ‘Nine thousand dollars,’ Ileed said, reflectively.

AVe do not know what position Itbe KcpnbIican party will take I upon tbe whiskey question when lit meets in convention at Greens. Ihoro. But we do know exactly iliow we stand upon it. We are [apposed to the Watts bill, and the Ipieeent order of things in this !State.

We I fm-or the passage of a general law, [that upon the petition of a certain I number of the qualified voters an [election shall be called by the [ county commissioners, and if a I majority of the voters tavor aboli- [ Eliingthe sale and manufacture of [ whiskey in any towp, township or [ coiiuty that it be so settled at the [ ballot bos, by the voters. We are [ eternally apposed to trying to [ control every act of the citizen by legal enactments. The liberty and freedom of our people is being en croached upon by the legislature to such an extent that we may I,wk for legislation aftei awhile I limiting the amount of bacon he eats, and the number of cups of I coffee or water he drinks lor sup- I per. Fanaticism is growing and the church is step by step trying to I control the law making power nn- j til alter awhile it will demand a union ot chnrcb and state. Onr lorefatliers had enough of that be fore onr government was founded, ami provided against it. Xo Re publicaB has any reason io leave bis party outlie whiskey question.: If he lie a temperance man let hint use his influence against present conditions aud advocate it as a moral question separate and apart from politics, and this can be done by voting directly upon the qnestion as above suggested. The Democratic party in this State, is stepbystep forcing the Tillman dispensary system upon our State and the report of the consumption of whiskey in S. C. shows a great increase. That may be Demociatic temperance, but it does not strike us as the genuine article. Repub licans don’t be deceived by Demo cratic promises, remember the campaigus of 1SS)8 and 1900 when they told you uo white man would be disfranchised, FOK WHITE VOTERS. The Charlotte Observer ye6ter ‘lay tiuly says* Au election is coming along, and it would be wise for white folks to realize that the constitutional a- niendment and the election law do not operate upon black men alone* fhe white man liable to it who does not pay his poll tax by the Insf of May, which is only two juonths distant, will not be allowed jo vote iu the elections in Novein- P*r, that is one thing certain; and it were well if everybody awaken ed to the fact. dr. Cleveland and Negroes. Atlanta, Ga., March 7.—Thos. E. Watson, who turned Populist while representing a Democratic district in Congress and who later ran for vice president on the Popu list ticket, has declared that negr oes were entertained socially at the White House when Cleveland was president. He says: “ Mr. Cleve land deuies that C. H. J. Taylor dined at hia table. Certain news papers, devoted to Mr. Cleveland, print his letter under scare head lines which announce that ‘No ue gro ever dined at Cleveland’ table.’ I '‘In saying this they unwillingly go too far and they make trouble for their oracle. He did not say that 'No negro ever ate at my ta- '>le.’ He coniiued Iiis denial strict ly to Taylor, It might not be fair to recall instances where colored congressmen dined at the White House at state dinners, but it is perfectly fair to remind Mr. Cleve land of Fred Douglass This ne gro, who had married a white woman (of a certain sort) was not only tieated with official consider ation, but when Mr. Cleveland (with extreme delicacy) had his bride to come to the White House that he might wed her there, he invited Fed Douglass aud his wife to attend the reception. “ This reception was not a state function. It waa social, purely. Ho one had the right to be present save those invited. And sure'y Mr. Cleveland must have respect ed his lovely and accomplished bride too much to have summoned any man or womau who he did not consider his or her equal It does not appear that lie invited either his coachman or his cook. Fred Douglass, whose color and smell proclaimed the African, was present among the gnests, and with him came his white wife. “ Not only did Mr. Cleveland do this kind of thing in Washington, but when governor of Xew York he signed the bill prodding for mixed schools. Owing to this system, which he thus approved negro children have been iujected into white schools and white child ren have been compelled to submit to negro teachers.”—Raleigh Post. Mr. Cleveland said he never lunched with Taylor, but made no further denial. He is like the darkie indicted for stealing, “ If de Judge had said ducks, he sho’ would a got me.” Mr Watson shows how Mr. Cleveland stood on the negro question and if - our Democratic friends can get any consolation out of it they are wel come to it. Dispensaries. Onr Raleigh dispensary is doing fairly well, our sales w- s $39 per day more in Feb. than for Jan., or 9900 more for the month.

A ROUSING SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION Indications are that the Sunday School Convention to be held at Mocksville on April 2, and 3, will be quite an important meeting. The meeting will be in charge of the State Sunday School Tour Party, which is sent out by the Executive Committee of the Xorth Carolina Sunday School Associa tion. The party is composed of five persons, all of whom are expe rienced Sunday School workers and specialist along their respec tive lines. Seldom, if ever, has such an ar ray of Sunday School talent been brought to our county as will be present on this occasion. The programme is made up of addresses, round tables, conferen ces, special music, etc, and will be especially interesting. Programmes and annoncements have been sent out from the State Sunday School headquarters in Raleigh to all the pastors a’id superintendents in this county, and there will no doubt, be a large attendance, Those who expect to attend from different sections ot the country who will desire entertainment, will do well to send their names at once to Rev W. L. Sherrill, who is chairman of the Committee of arrangements. Piess Noticeof April Designer. The Desiguer for April is brim ful of seasonable stories, poems and articles of general interest. “Decorated Tables for wedding breakfasts,” “Easter brides” and “Pattie wedding*' give hints most valuable to the prospective bride, as do “Confirmation costumes” to the young girl intending to join the church. “April fcols and Court Jesters” is well written by John De Morgan, and beautifully illustrated with reproductions of famous paintings, and “ The Lily in Legendary Lore’’ embodies un der one head the many exquisite superstitions connected with this, the llower dedicated to Easter. “ An Easter gathering,” by Bertha E, Bush, is a pretty and simple entertainment, quite -within the scope of the child actors for whom it is intended. There are two short stories, “Don Quixote’s Easter Sermon” and “The Easter dream of Mun Chee,” while “The bride’s at home,’ a laughable monologue, and “Poem pictures” furnish capi tal meterial for the recitationist. For the children theie are “A Bunny Party ior Babies” aud “Eggs to make the Family Laugh’ “Cross Stitch Embroidery” and “Lace and Embroidery” supply pretty things in the fancy work line, and tbe regulation depart ments ot “The Mothers’ Advisory Club.” What Women are Doing,” “Helps Along the ■ way’’ and “Knots and whatnots” continue their cash rewards tor all meritori ous contributions.

I* St.* Petersburg, By Cable.—T h e‘Em* peror received a message from Viceroy Alexieff which says; Admiran MnrakolT, com m anding the fleet, reports from P o rt A rthur tinder date of M arch to as follows: • - - “‘Six torpedo boats which w ent out to * ea the night of March 10. Tour of them [being im der the com mand of Capt. fM attoussevitch, encountered the ene- 'm y’s torpedo boats followed by cruis ers. A hot action ensued in which the lorpedo boat destroyer Vlaslini dis charged a W hitehead torpedo and sunk tme of the enemy's torpedo boats. On the way back the torpedo boat destroy er Stereguschtchi. commanded by Lieu tenant Sergueicfft sustained damages; her engine was disabled and she be wail fo founder. By 8 o’clock in the m orning five of our torpedo boat de stroyers and returned. W hen the crit ical position of the Stereguschitchi be- jcarae evident I hoisted my flag on the ■cruiser Novik and went, w ith the Novik 'end the cruiser Boyarin to the rescue. fcBul as five of the enemy’s cruisers sur rounded our destroyer and as their bat tleship squadron was approaching, I 'did not succeed in saving the Steregus- ehiehi, which foundered. P art of the crew was made prisoners and part was •drowned. "On the ships which participated in ‘th e night attack, one officer w as seri- cusly and three other w ere slightly wounded, two soldiers were killed and eighteen were wouuded. "A t 9 o'clock fourteen of the ene m y's ships assembled before P ort Ar th u r and a bom bardm ent was begun fwith the heavy guns of their battle ship squadron at long range, i "T his IaSted until I o'clock in the afternoon. It is estim ated th a t, the enemy fired 154 twelve-inch shells. The ‘dam age to our vessels was insignifi cant, and they are again ready for battle. Our losses were one officer slightly wounded and one soldier killed and four soldiers wounded. . "The illum ation of the sea at night by the searchlights m ounted at our ■batteries was m ost satisfastory, and 'several tim es isolated shots from our batteries forced the enemy's torpedo boats to retire. "W ith the commencement of the bombardment, at dawn the guns of the !fortress replied to the enem y's fire* , "The crews of all the ships engaged !gave proof of rem arkable coolness in action. "A bom bardm ent at such a distance m ust be considered ineffective, but the Vfapanese cruiser Takasago is reported to have been seen to suffer serious ’dam age, the extent of which, however. was impossible to ascertain at a distance of five miles. Many shells .were fired at a ranee of “V2 miles. i "I have the honor to report the fore going to your Majesty, f {."Signed) L IE X E P f.0 { Toko, By Cable.—Official and pri- avte reports both indicate that Admirai [Togo's fourth attack on P ort A rthur on th e IOth instant was the m ost effective iSince the first assault of a m onth ago. One Russian torpedo boat destroyer ■was sunk and several Russian torpedo •boats seriously damaged. The fortifi cations and city were subm itted ttf a heavy bom bardm ent lasting nearly four hours. The naval bom bardm ents of the land works have generally been ineffective, yet the peculiar topograph ical conditions of Port A rthur make im m unity from serious loss from bom bardm ent alm ost impossible. Admiral ,,Togo's torpedo flotilla opened the ac tion by boldly steam ing in under the [batteries of mechanical mines in the harbor. The closing aetion'w as the bom bard m ent of the inner harbor by the Japan ese battleships. The latter took a po sition southw est of P ort A rthur and v.sed only their twelve-inch guns. There were tw enty-four twelve-inch ‘guns In the squadron of six battleships, and each gun fired five rounds, m aking a total of 120 huge projectiles th at were fired at th e city. The bom bard m ent-w as deliberate and carefully planned. In order to aid in perfecting the firing A dm iral Togo stationed the cruisers in a position due ea st'o f the entrance to the harbor, and a t right angles to the battleships. The cruisers observed the range and effect of the firing and. signaled the results and Suga- gestlons by w ireless telegraphy, Ad m iral Togo was unable to learn defi nitely the results Of the bom bardm ent, but later private reports indicate that much destruction was caused in 'th e city w here serious fires broke o u t Thero also, was dam age to batteries. Capt. Shokiro Asai, com manding the .flotilla of torpedo boat destroyers, had culy three destroyers, but attacked the six Russian destroyers, ordered his craft to close in w ith the enemy. He steamed so close to the enemy’s de stroyers th a t they alm ost touched, and a m ost desperate conflict .ensued, from which the Russians, retired* badly dis abled. The Japanese flotilla which sunk the m ines at the m outh of the harbor later engaged tw o Russian destroyers^ This flotilla was commanded by Command er Tsuehiya. Adiniral Togo's object in sending cruisers to Talien W an Bay was to encom pass the destruction of a signal station m ine depot a t Sam Shanto. This object was achieved and the buildings were demolished.^ Rear Admiral Dewa and tJrili, Par ticipated in the operations Uttderr Ad m iral Togo, the details of whose opera tions became known In Japan o.nly_ Sunday, The news created intense en thusiasm .

Odds Against R ussia, St. Petersburg. By Cabiei- T h e cable story of the fierce fight off P ort A rthur between the torpedo flotillas, which oc curred 'W ednesday and the bom bard m ent which followed on Thursday morning, was not given out here until after midnight. Two official messages from Viceroy AlexiefE had been received during the day and presented to th e Em peror, but the public rem ained in suspense. The im pression was th a t Admiral M akaroff had directed the attack upon the ene my's fleet. W hen the texts appeared it became evident that the collision be tween the torpedo flotillas has .occup ied accidentally during the night;-, while the R ussians were scouting in search of the enem y.... As far as is known here, this is the first tim e torpedo boats have engaged each other a t sea. AU the odds were against the R ussians as the Japanese flotilla was supported by the cruiser squadron. The R ussians made a heroic dash for the foe and apparently *had the better of the com bat, sinking a Japanese torpedo boat, until the crui sers got w ithin range and one of the la tte rs shells crippled the Stere- guschtebi.” The gallant action of Vice A dm iral M akaroff in trausferlng his flag to the f?»st cruiser Novik and sailing out in the. face of the enemy in an attem pt at rescue receives unstinted praise, stam p ing him at the outset of his command ba a man of force and action who in sists on being in th e van of the fight ing.

Tuijiortatious or Couiiietilivo Articles Would Be liuoriuons], Increased, and TVliittiillE on IJry BoodB Boxes World Be tile Industry CZtiefly Promoted. TUerc is ti vast num ber of D em ocrats who w ant to m ake a tariff cam paign exclusively tUis year, even cutting ou t the tru st question. W e suspect they w an t to elim inate tlio latter because there are so m any D em ocratic tru st m agnates. B ut they think they can thresh over the tariff question to their benefit, especially if M r. Cleveland should be nom inated. In 1SST, Mr. Cleveland, In his fam ous m essage to Congress, said: “The pre cise am ount of duty is added to the price of the article and the consum er alw ays pays it.” AU the other Demo crats said the sam e thing, and w e pre sum e they w ould now reiterate it. Such a statem ent w as not tru e then, is n o t-tru e now aud never w ill be true. I t has been proven false, by ac tual experience, ever since tariff law s w ere enacted. B u t iu spite of experi ence aud in spite of logic th e tariff “reform er” continues to shout, “the tariff is a tax. and th e consum er pays it.” Vim', w e assert th a t th e “precise duty” is never paid by the consum er, except on articles th a t are hot pro duced in this country. And, strange to say, those are the very articles th a t our tariff reform ers w ould tax. So it eomes to pass th a t the D em ocratic or gans clam or for a tariff on coffee and tea and like articles th a t can be h ad in foreign countries only. The Bepub- Iicati policy is to adm it such products free of duty and m ake th e levy on those articles the like of w hich are freely produced iu this country, and w ith w hich w e com e in active com peti tion w ith foreign m anufacturers. Tlie reason is so obvious th a t even a “re form er” ought to be able to see it. Aud right here is w here the Eepub- liean idea of protection comes in. The idea is levy all duties on articles w ith which we compete, and by th a t m eans protect our producers. T be Demo cratic theory is exactly th e reverse. The politicians of th a t p arty declare th a t “protection is robbery,” and, ot course, you cannot expect a Demo, eraiic politician to become a robber. IV hat ho w ants to do is to reduce th e , tariff on articles w ith w hich w e come in com petition and add to it on tea and coffee and pepper aud spices aud like articles th a t w e cannot produce in this country. T his m ethod m ay be sufficient to sat isfy the “conscience” of a D em ocratic politician, aud. if so. w e tbink.it should be stim ulated and enlightened by Mt*. B ryan, who is paying particular atten tion to the “conscience” business since his return from Europe. W hat do our D em ocratic friends w ant? They say they w an t “a tariff sufficient to m eet th e expenses of the G overnm ent, eco nom ically adm inistered.” W illiam M c K inley did no t w an t any more. T he income from th e tariff a t this tim e is ,iust about th e am ount required to m eet necessary expenses. W hy, then, do they w an t a change? .W o w ill assum e th a t th e present levy is fifty per cent.—it m ay be a little move or less— and th a t it produces th e required am ount of revenue. Now, Iiow can th e reform ers get th e necessary incom e if they reduce th e levy tw enty-five per ecnt.? Simply by doubling th e am ount of im portations aud iu no other w ay. Consider w h at th e effect of this policy w ould lie. T he-increase of im porta tion w ould necessarily- be of goods m ade by foreign w orkm en and .every dollar paid to these English, French and G erm an w orkm en w ould be ju st so m uch money taken from otir ow n m echanics. T he output from our fac tories w ould be decreased au d w ages now . paid for th e m aking ot the goods w ould be entirely cu t off. B e n o t de ceived. “Yon cannot ea t your cah.e and have it.” You cannot buy your goods in England and pay your owii w orkm en for m aking them .

Hate were thrown into the air to fail whore they would, a moment later to be trampled upon in the stampede for the pit. Coats wetc torn by frantic brokers in their mad effort to unload their holdings, and chairs and camp-stools were dashed into the pit to emphasize some effort to sell. Messengers were rushing in and out of the building with orders to buy or seil; telephone booths were besieged and telegraph officer were flooded with dispatches. Outside the cotton exchange ap pearances gave little indication ot the pandemonium within until the mes sengers ibcgan to rush between the exchange and the brokers’ offices.

Shore, of Yadkin, was a pleasant caller last week, lie tells ns that within the past two years between 1000 and 1500 people have left Yadkin for the West. This shows what Democratic lagis lation is doing for our State.

It strikes us that we had bet ter try to keep our own people at home to aid in building up the waste places. Hundreds, yes thou sands of dollars are leaving Davie for other places and tax Jistipg will no doubt show the effect ot bad legislation. If we can’t keep our own people he e, it- will be hard to iudiice strangers to move among us. COOLEBfIBE ITEMS.

I suffered with falling and congestion of the womb, with severe pains through the groins. I suf fered terribly at the time of menstruation, had blinding headaches and rushing of blood to the brain. Wbat to try I knew not, for it | seemed that J had tried all and failed, but I Iiad .never, tried Wine 1 of Cardui, that blessed remedy for sick women. I found it pleasant to take and soon knew that I had the right medicine. New blood seemed to course through my veins and after using eleven bottles I was a well woman. Mrs. Bnsh is now in perfect health because she took Wine of . Cardui for menstrual disorders, bearing down pains and blinding headaches, when all other remedies failed to bring her relief.

O., May 18, 1904. FOR GOVERNOR |Cli-:s. A- Re.vnoldsofPorsyth Co. 1 ; from Eepnblicansjnat like you did 3 the Populist when yon stole their I platform. Wait brother Furman ! until we adopt our platform, but I don't steal our “ Hcker” plank be- j fore its even submitted. The peo- j pie are thinking and somethiug “is gwine to drap.” We Suggest First. The 'State ought not to [ operate raiboads and hotels, and [the A tlantic and North Carolina I Rnih-oad and Hoiel ongbt to be [leased on the best terms obtainable I and as prom ptly as may be. Pcrowl. Even in promoting so I good a cause as Temperance, the fundamental principles of popular I government ought not t o be for- | gotten. The regulation or sup pression of the whiskey traffic I ought to be prescribed by the vo les of all qualified voters, those liring without as well as those Iiy- iug within incorporate towns. The Waus Taw should be so amended a s to allow countrymen as well as townsmen to vote .upon. the ques tion under the same rules provid ed for the towns. Third. In educational matters the walchwsrd should be “Con- seivativc Progress.” W eshould maintain a good four-mouths’ Scli(X)I each year in each school district, but we should avoid in novations not suited to our people, i’onsolidation of school 'districts is de'irable when it does not place the school out of walkiug distance of the pupils. A go id, four-mon ths' school in reach of all the child- n uis lietter than an eight-months school within reach of a little more than half of the children. The education of the negro should be modified to the end that he be trained in habits of industry ittiil economy that he may become a useful citizen. Fourth. Local Self-Government must he preserved, and all ques tions of vital interest, such as stock laws, special taxes for roads ami other improvements, etc., etc. ongbt to be submitted to and de termined Iiy the votes of the quali fied electors oi the localities to be aHccietl. Fifth. The expenses of govern ment, State, county and local, should not be increased. After provioiug for the insane and other Unfortnnara-S and the v neccessary rcfpiiroineiits of the State iusfitu ' tiona no futher increase in public expenditures should be incurred during the next administration. Audin view of the heavy increase in the ossessments.of property, a reduction in the rate of taxation should be made if possible. Sixth. Development and In dustry should be encouraged by friendly legislation and protected sgnbist injustice and oppression. Ibe iuvestor should be regarded as a useful eitizeu and treated as a Irieud. The Post submits these to the Democracy of the State—the peo. Ple who compose the rank and file, iu whom all authority must come -' for consideration prior to the pri maries, so that in the selection delegates their'views on these sub jects may lie made known and re flected in the convention at Greens lwro. VVith the assurance that NOT TRUE, The protection of the law is thrown around your home at all hours of the day and night, mak ing yon safe in the possession of your property and in the enjoy ment of happiness, prosperity and peace. Resides yon have in your county a rich city that pays into the county treasury fully two-thirds of the taxes paid by the county, and this money goes to maintaiu your schools, roads and other benefits as above enumerated. Take from yon this rich city, one firm in which pajs annually more than $15,000 taxes and your taxes would be decidedly higher, if you undertook, to maintain the same protection and benefits.* This is the case in adjoining counties, and you have only to ask to verify the statement. Now. some can be heard to ask if this would not be equally true under Republican administration. History proves to the countfary. No conuty in the Sonthern States remained under Republican rule ior any length of time that did not bring financial disaster and cor rupt government.. Why? Because no Republican party has existed anywhere in the South since the days of reconstruction the office holders of which were and are now, largelyfrom Northern Republican States. Carpet bag gers, whose love for the South flows from gteed and love of graft. Not only this, but did you know that the protective, ta iff legisla tion of the Republican party put an indirect tax on all the necessi ties of life? If you Buy a plow, the Republicans have put a tax on it. If j'on buy spoons, knives aud forks, stoves, ccokiug utensils, washboard, woolen dresses for your family, a Snndaj' suit a hat, neck tie, ribbon, even the manufactur ed tobacco you raise, you pay a tax. That is what keeps your nose to the grind stone. The little county and State tax yon pay at your court honse is ab solutely nothing .compared to the high prices, you have to, pay for goods at tiie stores and these prices are high because the Republicans bj' legislation in Washington add a tariff price to the legitimate price, and you pay this tariff tax every time yon buy anything in a store. Just, ask the merchant. What the Democrats are trying to do is to take this tariff tax off,, and if you will stand squarely up. to Democratic principles this fall iu voting we will do it.— Winston Journal.«■ The above from the Winston $12 ,000, leaving a balance of $15, 000, with your taxes reduced to the lowest rate in years. The Democratic Commissioners on Dec. 1, 1836 were in debt In the county $2,350. The debt has. been reduc ed by Republican Commissioners to Dec, 1.1901 to $604.07. HON. THOS. ROLLINS. Sometime ago an unheard of gentleman In Asheville wrote a letter to the Democratic papers charging the Hon. Thos. Rollins with disloyalty to Maj. Moody in' the last campaign. Mr. Rollins has disproved every 'charge and shows this unknown carpetbagger up in a very bad light. Mr. Bonsall claims to be a Republican yet- the letter below from the county tax collector shows that he has not listed or paid a tax in Asheville since 1900 and there is no evidence that he has ever paid one in the State. Below we give the tax collectors letter to Mr. Rodins. There is no truer, better or more loyal Repub lican in theStata thau. Thomas S. Rollins.

Itiid effectivel}' treated Sn the t'eceiit speeches of Secretary Shaw and Representative Volstead, of Minn* esotai It inight almost be said that in Ihc-se. two sij.aetfii6fi.tUe .stibjedt was practically exhausted so far as any a f firmative action by the Eepublican party is concerned. The initiative, if any, will liave to be taken by the- Dem ocratic party. It is to that party that the country has been accustomed to look foi' meastirgs tind policies.lttifntcat to the interests of domestic producers: Messrs. Shaw and Volstead having clearly demonstrated that reciprocity with Canada is undesirable because of the injury it would inflict upon a very importaiit body ot' domestic producers, it is UiituMt to cipect that this policy will Somiiiaiid tiiS fenergetid support Of the Democratic party: There is iiii abundance of reasons why the Bepub- liean party should keep its hands off Canadian reciprocity. The speech of Representative Vol stead exhibits in a strong light many of these reasons, Speaking in behalf bf n constituency largely made up of Minnesota wheat growers, and fully •jquiiiped tvitii filets of vital relevance- Mr. Volstead was able to intelligently discuss the question as it affects the interests of the farmers of the North western States. He began by comIwt- ting the theory that the free admission of Canadian cereals would not affu^t the prices which now rule for the grain grown in Minnesota and the Dakota* It is upon the strength of this conten tion that the advocates of reciprocity with Canada In natural products Chief ly rely. Mr. Volstead swept it away once and for all when ’ e showed that the price of wheat in Minneapolis is governed not at all by the price of wheat either in Chicago, in New York or in Liverpool, but by the leeai de- inanii for milling i>nrpose& 'VWieat U usually only ironi five to eight cents higher in Liverpool tkau in Minneapo lis, and the price in Chicago is seldom more than one or two cents’higher than in Minneapolis. Allowing for traiis- portation, elevators, handling and other charges, the price in Liverpool should be aboilt twenty cents higher than in Minneapolis, instead of being only live to eight cents higher, and often less than tliat. The Minneapolis mills must have iiiis Wbea t td grind into high grade Hotuv and; hence it is that local demand and competition regulate the price of wheat and not the Liverpool market. The Minneapolis miller w ants Cana dian wheat to come in free of duty be cause it would vastly increase the sup ply and break down the price, Tims the burden of reciprocity Would fall Upon the farmers of the Northwest and indirectly upon the wheat growers in all the States east of the Rocky Mount ains. Exactly the same is true as to all other agricultural products from Canada entering the United States free of duty. Such free trade would inevit ably break down prices, No pne understands this better than do the advocates of reciprocity with Canada. It is because of the certainty of cheaper prices for foodstuffs and vaw materials that they advocate reci procity in natural products. The Re- ; pnbiican party is not committed to the policy of cutting the ground from un der the feet of American farmers by lneans of increased foreign competi tion. Hencei as we have said, the Be* pnbiican'party Iviit probably Udt take the responsibility of installing red- proeity with Canada in natural prod ucts. As to Canadian reciprocity that shall include both natural and manufactured products, the speech of Secretary Shaw, delivered before the M arquette Club in Chicago, February 12, 1904, has pretty thoroughly shelved that proposition. The Secretary drew attention to the tack of progress in reciprocity negotia tions. Said he: “No agreement has yet been consum mated. And why? Simply because of the Canadian attitude oii the subject. She asks free trade in natural products and offers little else. If we will per m it the Canadian farm er to ship Iiis dairy products, his poultry products, his pork, his hay and. his potato®! across the lakes and the St." Lawrence River and down the Atlantic seaeoast to supply our artisans, without the im position ot tariff duties, then Canada will generously consent that the farm ers of the United States ship their bat ter, eggs, hay and potatoes into Can ada;” ; In such a dicker Canada1 would do all of tlie selling and would buy nothing. Does Canada-sfand ready to enlarge the scheme of reciprocity so as to in clude manufactures? Decidedly ’not; Canada has no such intention. Sne does not propose to have her industrial aspirations, snuffed out in. aiiy sncii- way. Secretary ,5baw said:; J -. : ....“Ag-to other than natural pvedijcts, the Canadian position is well represent ed by a speech made in the Canadian Parliam ent Ly Mr. Charlton, a member of the Joint High Commission. He saidi "Nd arrangement will be satis- factofy to Cnt iida that does not give us reciprocity of iiiiturai prciiiUctS w ith out granting any return or aiiy couces- sion beyond what has already been granted.’ Further in the same-speech he said: ‘Free trade in natural prod ucts would afford a reasonable adjust ment. Kothing short of this would do it, and this concession to free trade in natnral products must be granted by the United States without a solitary fcoiicessidii from. Canada further than those we have iiiready inadcs" '•.R ep u b lican ” F re e TratTe* Governor Cummins stit’.ds for free trade with Canada, and he appeals to the farmers of Iowa to assist him in iiriiiging such a condition into effect, which means that -YOrytiiin^ that is produced on Iowa farms, that can bd produced in Canada, would eorneiu free and in direct competition with what the Iowa farm er has to sell. Just take a look at the map and see how Canada hugs the great m anufacturing Slates bf tlig East, ftiid edntemplate the re sult if poultry, eggs; pork and all kinds of farm productions could pass Over the line into Ohio, Kew York, Pennsyl vania and all of New England, duty free. In his Minneapolis address the Governor contended that beef was too high, and he urged the working men he was addressing to work for a reduc tion of duties; In bis Detroit address he taiked for frej trade with Canada: and he talked the same a t Boston, and in his inaugural address delivered only last Friday. Tbe cry of free trade, or reciprocity, wbicli is the same* thing, is the echo of th» organized demands of the Republic steel trust which pub lishes the reciprocity magazine, the organ of the Canadian Reciprocity League, of which Colonel George Frenchi of Davenport, is the head. It w ants farm machinery introduced info Canada duty free, and in return would take down every protection now af forded the farmers.—Iowa City Repub lican. h 'fo ilE T Iiein S is l i t N ovr, Sir William Vernon Harcoiiff flat ters himself unduly in imagining ho has done a great thing in digging up an anti-protectionist speech delivered by Joseph Chamberlain nearly nine teen years ago. It appears that in 1885, in the course of a speech deliv ered ill Birmingham, Mr. Chamberlain eaidi “It is improbable the working classes Ol1 this country will ever again submit to the sufferings and misery inflicted by the COfii iaws; If this is tile policy of tlie Tories we have only to recall the iustory of the times when protection starved the poor arid the country was brought to the brink of revolution.” 'T he fact that a man was wrong in ISSo does not necessitate that be should be wrong in 1004. The world has moved mightily in these nineteen years. Events have abundantly proved that the Cbambet’lain of 1SS3 was mis. taken and that the Chamberlain of to day is right. Several millions of think ing people liave completely changed their views regarding free unde and protejtion in the past two decades. A H ficord B re a k e r. The DiingIey law will be a record breaker in many respects. No tariff law of our history hits remained un changed or nnamended longer than seven years and a half.

The Dingley iaw went into effect Jnly 24,1807, and about the time of the next Presidential election Will liave been in force longer than auy other tariff law on our statute books. I t is not likely that the law will be re vised for some time after that date, however, so that it will easily rank as not only the tariff law remaining long est unrevised, but the most successful in its operation, and the.m ost beueiic- ial in its results of any , tariff !aw which we have ever had since tlie foundation (if the Government.

CAPT1 FINCH BOUNOTO COURT Remits Ot (be Conspiracy Tri«l At Raleigh, S p e c ia l.-tl* Finch case on the charge «** with V. B. McBee In procuring the re- Ceiversiilp 0f the AtUntie & N orth Car olina Railway took a new and surpris ing turn Sahirday before S ffiaeb larSel audience than that of Friday at the opening. The star witness at the Mc- Bee hearing was A ttorney John W. Hinsdale and today the star witness tvas W. H, Day, introduced by the State- tt became very warm at times, particularly towards {Be Governor and quite so towards his asoseiate, ex- judge W. S, Q'B. Robinson. A t the con clusion of the'hearing Finch was bound over to W ake Superior Court, in a bond of $2,000, which he gave. The first gun of the day was fired by Attorney Hinstfale, who asked leave to make a statem ent as a witness, saying that when asked Friday about a letter ffoin (ireeitville, S. C,, from a bank president t*o Capt. Wj Day, he did not say anything, but th at now' lie wished to say th at it contained $2,40(3, of which $2,250 w as to be paid to Ed Chambers Smith on account of the note which K. S; Finch had given Smith for the latter’s shares of stock In the At lantic & N orth Carolina Railway, the other $150 being paid for V. E. Mc- Bee. The first regular witness was At torney Day, who fold about the fofiftgf* ing of the suit in the receivership mat ter by Finch and McBee. Speaking of the check which m eant to pay Smith he said that he would have said yes terday that the money came from Finch alid did not know how, but had heard otherwise. He referred to what he lefmed an agreem ent which had been made by IiiS associate counsel, W. -S. O’B. Robinson, w ith Governor Ay- c-ock, by which the suit in the Federal Court for a permanent receiver of the Atlantic & N orth Carolina Railway was te be dismissed upon the condi tion that McBee aiid M nch were hot to be punished. Day said that if he had been present at this conference with the Governor he would have objected to the dismissal of the bill, as he be lieved that the latter would hold. He leaftied Of an agreem ent from Robin son, W; W.- Clark and Solicitor Armi- stead Jones. Ms stated that Bobinson had said the Governor had sent for him and then asked if this foolishness could not be stopped. A number of other witnesses were examined. Finch preferred not to go on. the stand. Atiorney General Gilmer nude ' very able arRcinent, saying it was not for him to determine what was in McBee's and Finch’s hearts when they liegan this proceeding. The only question is whether there was probable cause to bind Finch over to the Superior Court. Maxwell, in his argument, discussed, the status of the Atlantic & N orth Carolina Railway, saying it was bank rupt. The Attorney General, replying to this, said there wai) nothing in the bill of complaint to sustain this al legation and challenged the statement. He traced Finch’s connection with tie transaction, saying the least degree of consent m itto him equally guilty with McBee. He declared fHneh never had any standing In the Federal C ourt The State justly complained of the undue precipitation with which Finch and Mc- Bee acted. In this lies the very germ of the charge. W hy the haste, no man could give any reaton; why the ap pointment of a receiver affected the lease of the road, or why the man who had withdrawn his bid and by all rules Was disqualified was made receiver. Thert was a combination to do unlaw ful things. K iich awore he owned 45 shares of stock, but really owned 47, and his counsel said this was done to conceal the fact that the stock had Beett bought from Ed Chambers Smith. McEee aiid Finch tried to buy stock from Car] Duncaii, but got none, though they offered $175,000 for 1,700 shares— that is, offered to giye their note for this sum, and give the stock back as collateral. They got stock from Smith, but never acquired for one moment any standing in the Federal Court, as the stock had to be transferred on the 'company’s books, and no request for this was ever made. McBee was en deavoring to acquire the stock for the very purpose o f having himself ap pointed receiver. Duncan’s testimony so shows. The purpose was to w rest the control of the road from the board of directors and put it in McBee’s pos session, so Duncan says. McBee said . he was to be appointed receiver, and proposed to Duncan to have the latter appointed co-receiver. The burden was not to rest on the State to prove this conspiracy beyond a reasonable doiibt; it is only necessary to show probable cause. The law protects citizens and State alike. This suit was not solely for the purpose of having the Atlantic & North Carolina road leased. There I was a notice of a stockholders’ meeting i when the second order was signed in ; Raleigh by Judge Purnell, yet 1,700 I shares of stock were here.

Henderson, Special.—The fast vesti- -buled train on the Seaboard Alr Line, No. 81, known as the Florida Limited, ran into an open switch here early Thursday morning and was badly wrecked. Not one of the fifteen, pas sengers on board suffered injury. En gineer Tucker, who stuck to his en gine, was fatally injured, both legs and both arms belns crushed. Other mem bers of the train crew are reported to have sustained injuries, Conductors W estly was unhurt. The Florida Lim ited is due to pass Henderson shortly after midnight, but does not stop ljere. Tbe train entered the town at high speed and plunged into the open swltoh colliding with a shifting engine which was standing on a sidetrack attached to a Durham & Northern freight. The wreck caught fire from the overturned stoves and two Pullman sleepers and two box cars were burned. Three box cars were smashed into splinters and the two locomotives were entirely wrecked. Poythress coal chute, which stood close to the siding, was demolish ed. Engineer Tucker was removed to his home at Portsmouth. Tbe Care ot the Bars. { KotU ng is prettier than a well shaped ear correctly placed upon the head. It !b an im portant feature, and is worthy ot more care than it or dinarily receives.' Ia regard to thq ears and their care Dr. Grace Peck- ham M urray has some excellent sug gestions In the April Delineator, among which are the following: Mothers and nurse are responsible in a great measure for the shaping of children’s ears. If the ears are found to be prominent they should be pro vided with little caps, which if tied un der the chin will firmly and with even and not too severe pressure hold the ears close to the head. If this is un- succession an operation, which is not dangerous, is advised. B*or grown per- sons,.the ear cap, a device for binding the ears to the head is beneficial; but an operation is sometimes necessary to improve the appearance. The ears should be kept clean. They should not be handled roughly. Sharp instruments for cleaning the ears are not advisable, nor the little sponges which are affixed to an Ivory handle. The best thing to use is a little swab made by wrapping the end of a toothpick with cotton. A hair pin Is not bad when covered' with cloth. In regard to deafness, if one has a suspicion of It an examination should be made; If the hearing is really bad much will he gained by the use of one of the instruments that have been invented to aid hearing. w hat ’s The bill good for ?

Kinston, Special.—Mr. —Jesse I* Kennedy, a prominent citizen ot his county, while testifying on the witness stand In his own behalf, fell from the chair and died in five minutes. Mr. Kennedy was being tried for shooting and disabling for life Mr. Ed Hughes, of La Grange, who was attending court here about a year ago. The last words uttered before It was noticed he | was weakening were that Hughes walk- i ed up behind him with his knife and struck at him; then he (Kennedy) drew his pistol to protect himself. Hughes made another pass at him, and the shot was fired. The judge ordered the jury withdrawn, and court ad journed for the day. : SuV de at Siler City, Siler City, Special,—-Mr. J. N.

Since Bimmelstein himself is en gaged In the clothing business, I thought he would be interested in this ancient relic, so I told him about it, but the story seemed to make no im pression on him.

McKinney, of Lexington, received a ' telegram Monday stating that his son, Tllus McKinney, had been, killed ty a shifting engine of the Chesapeake 6 Ohio Railroad at Clifton Forge, Va. It seems that the deceased was on his way home,, and while waiting to change ears accidentally stepped in. front of the shifting engine, which ran over him cutting his body in two and killing him instantly. He was working for a mine in Virginia and was coming to Lexington to hire hands to work in the mine when the aoeident occurred. His body arrived in Lexington Tues day. Sunday night George Harris, a col ored, man of Concord, was killed by some' one near the depot a t that place. He had been stabbed twice in his right side. He walked up the railroad track towards the depot aad sat down near the track. No. 40 came along and cut Ws coat, and just missed his body. Then he fell over dead. Suspicion points to a party there as Uie one who • stemmed him, but there is no direct evidence against him. It is thought that Harris was going' w ith a woman, and some one opposed this and this led to the killing. He was too weak to tell who did it when he was found. Mr. James D. Brown, who has the contract for the brick work on the septic tanks the city of Charlotte is constructing, had a narrow escape from death Monday morning. W hen a blast was iETiIted a small stone was thrown a distance of about 300 yards, striking Mr. Brown on the head and knocking him down. Although the blood was flowin'* f'-om the wound, Mr. Brown i>t ,untecl his bicycle and rode into the city for medical treatm ent.

Coats and skirts are now being made of the same material, but they are no longer fashioned upon lines of almost geometric severity The newest ma terial for thest, and one that Is rapidly coming forward, is crepe de Chine. The spring coat may be made In any one of three distinct shades; one is the short sack coat, loose and straight, which was seen last season; another is a modified Russian blouse, somewhat suggestive of the kimono;- a third style is a plain, loose coat with a cape. From present indications, two note worthy features of tbe new gowns are likely to prevail. The more important is the ever increasing vogue of the short sk irt The other is the frequent use of drapery across the front of the waists Too much importance 'cannot be given to tbe soft, sheer fabrics that lend themselves s o . readily to the graceful Sowing lines of the 'season’s modes. The voiles and veilings are, perhaps, in highest favor. Bordered materials In soft silk and cotton mix tures, sheer cottons and' linen canvas are among the popular novelties. A glint of gold is introduced In every thing. Gold braids, buttons, frogs, cords and pendants are : some o f the forms of this m ilitary decoration. Laces that are fine and fiimy are the choice ot. the Jhoment. The colored cotton embroideries are among, the novelties.

I was thin and emaciated. “My physician advised me to leave this climate, but as it was not convenient to do 60 at this time, I took the advice of a friend to use a bottle of Peruna. I took it faithfully, and when the first bottle was gone I ielt so much better that I bought six more and took them faithfully, after which I looked like a new woman. 'I gained in flesh, my appetite returned and all my old symptoms had disappeared. I am more than thankful to Peruna.” Miss Bertha M. Kush. I AM TIRED. Everybody is Tired-Spring Weather Does it—Every One Should Be Cautious. Depression of the nervous system at the approach of spring is the cause. General lassitude, dull, heavy sensations, continual tired feeling, with irregular appetite, and sometimes loss of sleep. Peruna meets every indication and proves itself to be perfectly adapted to all their va ried peculiarities. Peruna invigorates the system, rejuvenates the feelings, restores the normal appetite and produces regular 8lI f c t tired feeling which is the natural j result of the depressing effect of warm weather immediately after the invigorat ing cold of winter quietly disappears when Peruna is taken. Thousands are daily testifying to its priceless benefit.Mrs. H. Kassatt, 1309 W. 13/.h street, Des Moines, Ia., writes: “I am happy to give ( my endorsement for your valuable medicine, Peruna, as !.consider it a valuable medicine to take when the system is run down from overwork. About two years ago I felt that I must take a long rest, as I had been unable to work for over a month and could not regain my strength. I could not sleep at night and was in a very ner vous, high strung condition. I decided to try what Peruna would do to build, up my strength, and am pleased to say that I began to. improve very shortly, and in less than two months I was able to take up my work, and felt better than I have for i years. I take it now twice a year, and find • that it keeps me in perfect heaitn.” Mrs. Kassatt was for over ten years the manager of a plant furnishing ladies’ wear and employing hundreds of women. Tired. Nervous ‘Women. There are thousands of them everywhere. A few bottles of Peruna would do them untold benefit. As a tonic and nerve in- -igorator it has no equal. It builds up.the nerves, it gives strength to the circulation and at once restores the appetite and di gestion. No feeble woman should be without Peruna. * <?■ U M C 1 ISAWMiLLSl MlIUonsof U.M.C.
