He leaves his reai estate to his wife and the income from his personality to her also. He makes a charge up- on his property to pay his mother (thewill was written before-her death) $1,000 a year during her life, at her death the same sum to be paid to kis sister, Helen McKinley. At the death of his wife the property is to be equally divided between his brothers and sisters. Mrs. McKin- ley renounced her right of adminis- tration and the court appointed Pri- vate Secretary Cortelyou and Judge Day administrators. with the will annexed. Itis such a willas the country expected from the dead President. * * * The report of the finance commit- tee of the penitentiary directors shows that the Day administration of that institution cost $35,495.82 more than it earned, instead of the $34,456.73 surplus claimed by the Day administration. The report further shews that the average monthly expenses of the institution under the Day adiministration were $16,079,17 and that the expenses under the Mann adininistration have been $10,390.86 per month, a saving of $5,688 31 a month. Thisisa very gratifying saving to the tax-payers, and shows that the penitentiary is being conducted with the most rigid economy in ail its branches. It is expected that, notwitEstanding the disaster to the crops on the Halifax county farms, the institunion will be self-sustaining this year. No officer in North Carolina is rendering more faithful service to the State than Julian S.

The action taken was wise, and we believe it will be effective in securing a fair price for cotton seed. It is hoped that the cotton farmers of the other Southern States will form similar associations. Weare glad to know that the North Carolica association is to be permanent The cotton farmers can do much for themseives by proper organization. Not only can they regulate the price of séed, out they can also regulate to some extent the price of cotton by mutual co operation to keep the size of the crop within profitable limits, and this cooperation cav only be brought about through organization. Co operation can also secure cheap er fertiliz2rs an@ other supplies. In a dozen different ways a cotton growers’ association can do much for its members. say the organi- zation formed in Raleigh last week do all the good its founders hope for, and may its life be long and useful to the farmers of the State. * * It is given out from Washington that Senator McLaurin, of South Carolina, has seen President Roose- velt,and that the President promised him to keep on allowing him to dish out the federal offices in South Car- olioa in exchange for the Senator’s support of the ship subsidy steal aad the dangerous foreign policies ofthe President.

The resolution fixing the price of cotton seed. which the convention unanimously adopted is as follows: Whereas the cot:ou crop is short and there is an increased demand for cotton seed for feeding, fertilizer and other purposes and whereas the present offerings of prices and terms of exchange for seed are below the real value of the seed. Be it resolv- ed: That it isthedeliberate judgment of this convention that seed are now worth to the farmers at home 25 cents a bushel! or shou!d be exchang- ed on a basis of 2,000 pounds of seed for net less than 1,333} pounds of cotton seed meal to analyze 8) per Centammonia, and we advise and urge the cotton farmers North Carolinz not to sell or exchange at less thun above prices, and we ask the earnest cooperation of every cotton grower in North Carolina to this end.

THE ADDRESS TO THE FARMER*, To the cotton farmers of North Carolina: At ameeting of delegates appoint ed to assemble in Raleigh ca the 25th inst., for the purpose of consid ering and deciding on the best meth- od of securing a just and reasonable price for our cotton seed, it was a greed to organize under the name of *-The North Carolina Cottcn Farm ers’ State Association,’’ and make such recommendations to those en- gayved iu raising cotton as might se- cure the enc in view. After full information presented by the State Agricultural Depart ment of the intrinsic value of cotton seed for fertilizing. stock feeding, etc., supplemented by the individual knowledge and experience of the farmers present in relation to them, the following recommendations were made, and: the undersigned appoint ed a committee to briefly outline the conclusions of the convention. That we should not dispose of our seed in case of sale, for less than twenty five (25) cents per bushel, or when exchanyiag tae sume to mills we should not receive less than 1 3333 pound~ of meal, analyzing Si per cent ammonia for a ton of seed. This price was based on the present price of cotton seed meal and oil. If these products advance in price the seed should sell at a higher price than25 cents per bushel. In the event we are not able tosell or ex- change on these terms, then it was recommended that we should use the seed on the farm fo~ fertilizer, and wherever practicable there should be established by the farmers neigh- borhood cotton seed oil mills. It McLean of can accomplish but little unless those whom we seek to aid shall or- ganize among themselves and_ ac- tively avd intelligently co operate with us. To this end we insist that every farmer interested in procuring better prices for cotton seed engage actively in this work of organization and that no time be lost in perfect- ing the samein each township and couaty.

A. White, of Mount: Airy, N. C., who was on her way to Balti isore to undergo an operation, in charge of her husband and family physician, lost her reason suddenly on Broad street yesterday morning, and after being taken to the office of the chief of police, was removed toa temporary ward prepared for her reception at the City Hospital. Her malady is by no means considered permanent, and Dr. W. S. Taylor, who was with his patient at the time of her mental collapse, believes that her reason will soon be restored and that she will be able to undergo treatment in the Richmond hospitals for her original malady. Mrs. White has been suffering for some time from the effects of a fail from a horse, which resulted in serious internal injuries. Mr. White is a civil engineer, and is in prosperous circumstances. The statement that Mrs. White would be remoyed to Baltimore over the York-River route. was without foundation. She is still at the City Hospital, and tast night 1t was said that she showed no sign of improve ment. Sbe is virtually a raving maniac sor cleat Young Thieves in Raleigh Raleigh News and Observer. As the result of reading blood and thunder novels of the Jesse James type, fiye white boys, ranging in age from eight to sixteen are now under arrest in Raleigh. charged with entering stores and eae money and goods from them. The boys are Claude Kimball, a e 8; Clareace Kimbal!, age 1j,Ira Kimball, age 14; Fred Crowell, age 14, and Herbert Crowell, age 16. They willall be put on trial this morning before Mayor Powe'!l, out yesterday afternoon each of the buys admitted to have taken part in sev- era! small robberies. The detection of thé young yang of criminals is due to Mr. Fred Woolcott. Moduay night at about 8:30 o’clack, as he passed the Bap- tist Book Store, he saw some one move in the back of the store He peared into vhe store and saw a lit- tle feilow get out the back door. Runniog around to the back of the store hesaw two boys getting into the next buildisg, and later discov- ered them hiding money iu a _ hole above their bed. , Yesterday morning the two boys, Claude and [ra Kimball were arrest- ed. They implicated their brother Clarence, and the Crowell boys, who were also arrested. Ira Kim- ball has gone ‘‘hoboing’’ “as far west as Kansas City and is the jockey who rides Mr. Ed. V Denton’s ‘My Vic,’’ Herbert Crowell is the office boy for Messrs. Hinsdale and Law- rence ai $1.25 a week, while Fred Crowell does similar work for Mr. Armistead Jones at $1 a week. A close examination was made of the boys yesterday afternoon and developments show that they formed a youny pilferings society, led by Ira Kimball, and that they had pledged, in dime novel style, not to tell on each othér. The boys, each of them, have con- fessed to various thefts from Duod- bin and Ferrall, Baptist Book Store and Roysters% Entrance to Dobbin & Ferral’s was pained through the skylizht, the boys going up through a buiiding and working downward from the roof. In vetting into the Baptist Buok Store a brick was thrown through a transom and \ laude climbed through. Various amounts have . been miss- ed from Dobbin and Ferralli’s, one robbery of Isst May going up to $41. The boys deny that they got this but suspicion points to [ra Kimball, as about this time he went west. He says he ~ borrowed”’ a pass from a man named Peterson, however At the Baptist B sok Store $9.70 was stolen and $7 20 has been recovered. The smallest theft was thirteen cents, while at times c.!lars, suspenders and stockiny’s wer:: iakep.

He had but recently hung out his shin- gle, and all the legal business he had was tosit with the other members of the barand look wise. A defen- dant was arraigned who had em- ployed no counsel. ‘Look these gentlemen over,’’ the judge said to the accused, ‘‘and pick out a law- yertodeferd you.’’ The prisoner after a careful scrutiny of the legal lights present, chose the hero of this story. The man was subse- quently acquitted on tke plea of in- sanity. His counsel was asked by a bro: her attorney what circumstances first led him to believe the defendant insane. ‘*He picked me out as the best lawyer in thecrowd,’” was tbe reply, ‘‘so I knew he was crazy.”’ ee Lowry Said to be Hiding in Jackson County Asheville Dispatch 27th, Officers in this city say they have information, the reliability of which cannot be doubted, that Jim Lowry, the negro murderer of Chief of Police Jones, of Shelby, is in the western part of this Satte.

An old negro has informed Bryson that Lowry is certaialy in that section, and that he and other colored people haye given the desperado something to eat be- cause they wereafraid to refuse. It will be very difficult to effect the capture of the negro.

Yesterday afternoon she was as wellas usual, but later in the evening was taken ili and died with heart :rouble. Miss Teasely was about fifty years of ageand for several years gave the Norfolk & Western road much trouble, for which she vaiued nation- al notorictv. The trcuvie began ten or twelve years aye when the survey of theroad was first made. Refusing all offers to compromise the damage for crossing her planta- tion she went to court and secured judgment for five hundred d>!iars This she refused to acceptand ‘he money remained in the office of the clerk of the court fyr severa’ years and finally went to the Univer-ity of North Carolina as «cclaimed proper- ty. She then advertised :u+ road and all fixtures in the city papers. Then for years she annoyed the road in every way that she could devise. All trains passing over ber place were flagged and finaiiy the superin- tendent of the rv#d ‘ssued orders that all trains pass tarough her plantation at no greater rate of speed than six miles »er hour. One of her favorite ways of flagging che train was to get a United States flag and signal the engineer, then wrap it about her.and stand on the track, in this way compelling the en- gineer tostop. Finally some two months ago she was arrested on a warrant sworn out by the railroad authorities and the trial was set be- fore 2 magistrate here. Before coming to a trial tne commission of lunacy was appointed and decided that she was insane. For a while she wasin the county jail and was then transferred to the cdunty home pending her admission into the tate hospital for the insane.

Justice, of Rutherfordton, has been frequently mentioned in con- nection with the Demecratic nomi- nation for a positionon the Supreme Court bench next year. Tuesday’s Raleich News and Observer sets this matter at rest by stating upon the authority of Judge Justice’s friends that he will not be a candi- date for the position named, but will be a candidate at that time to suc ceed himself as Superior Court judge, ; whick nomination he will doubtless seeure without opposition. So far, Judge Clarke is the only eandidate for chief justice, and it is not likely that an opponent will appear against bim.asit is pretty generally con- ceded that he has the call or that nomination.

A very ugly affair occurred bere tonight infront of the Tapp-Long Company, one of the largest dry goods houses in the city, in which a union painter named Clayton was slashed across the back with a knife. The Tapp-Long Company recently had ajob of painting done and did not give the job toa union painter, claiming that they could get the work cheaper by another bidder. Tonight stickers appeared on boards and other places here on which were written the words “Unfair firm. Tapp-Long Company work scab painters and sell scab shoes.

He was often a delegate to the county district and State con- ventions of bis party and always took a prominent part inthe pro- ceedings, Ue was a speaker of force and his witty. humorous speeches were always much enjoyed by both epeblicans and Democrats. He Was aman ofinfluence in his com mownity and to him as much as to any one is due the large increase in the Republican partyin his town n ness. Henever could do too much for his friends, and he bad many. At his home was -dispensed the old Virginia hospitality. the finest the world has ever seen. His anecdotes acd reminiscenses of by-gone days were illimitable and his way of teil ing them inimitable. His sareasm and ridicule were severe and cutting aud was much esteemed by them. When we readJohn Esten Cook’s Surry of Eagle’s Nest’’ and laugh-| ed at his inimitable “Captain Boxy, the conviction came to us that tbe Virginian novelist found his origin- alin our friend Dr. Angle.

Awaiting the arrival of the train there was & crowd of about 200 people. Either for fear of the crowd, which was not very demonstrative, or from sight of the prison, Czolgosz s legs gave out and two deputy sheriffs were compelled to practically carry the man into the prison. Inside the gate his condition became worse,and he was Gragged up the stairs and led into the main hall. He was placed in a sitting posture on the bench, while the handculfs were being re- moved, but he fell over and moaned ani groaned, evincing the most ab- ject terror. ‘As soon as the band- cufis were unlocked the man was dragged into the principal keepers office. As in the case of all prisoners the officers immediately proceeded to strip him and put on a new suit of clothes. During this operation Czolgosz eried and yelied, making the prison corridors echo with evi- dence of his terror. The prison physician, Dr. John Gerin, examin- ed the man and ordered his remoyal to the cell in the condemned row, which he will cccupy until he is taken from the cell to the electric chair. The doctor declared that the mon was suffering from fright and terror, but said tbat he was sham- ming to some extent. The collapse of the murderer was a surprize to every one, En route from Buffalo he showed no indication of breaking down. He ate heartily of sandwiches and smoked cigars when not eatiug. He talked some and expressed his regret for his crime. He said: *‘I] am very sorry for Mrs. McKinley.” He reiterated bis former statement that he bad po accomplices and declared that he never had heard of the man under arrest in St. Louis, who claimed to have tied the handkerchief over his hand, concealing the pistol with which the President was shot. He says the handkerchief was not tied. He went behind the Temple of Music, arranged the handkerchief so as to hide the weapon and then took his place in the crowd. To Jailer Mitch- ell he sent this message to his father: ‘-Tell him I’m sorry I left such a bad name for bim.”’ Czolgosz was in normal condition this afternoon and seemed to have fully recovered from his collapse. There are five cells for condemned menin the prison. Czglgosz was placed in the only vacant cell, so all are now occupied. Two keepers are constantly on guard ir the room, which is separate from the main prisou, but to guard against an at- tempt on Czolgosz’s part to commit suicide, two more guards have been addea and one will constantly sit in frout of Czolyosz’s cell and will have akey sothat any attempt at self- destruction may be easily frustrated. ———— oo New Kailroads to Be Built Soon. Raleigh News and Observer, Sept. 26th. Three new and important railroad projects are now on foot in this State, and just over the line in South Carolina. The proposed routes are from Winston-Salem to Wadesboro in North Carolina, and from Sumter to McBee, South Carolina, and from McBee to Monroe, N.C. It is prob- able that all three will be built with- in the course of 12 months as the routes have been or are now being surveyed. The road from Winston-Salem to Wadesboro will traverse the fertile valley of the Yadkin or Pedee river and willestablish a connection be- tween the cotton producing and cot- tan manufacturing sections. Be- sides, it will complete a star line route from Winston-Salem to Char leston—from the Blue Ridge to the sea. Itis understood that Charles- ton capitalists are the prime movers in this project and it has been intimated that the Norfolk and Western system is in- terested init. The route is now be- ing surveyed and the ultimate suc- cess of the plan is assured. The Sumter-McBee company has been chartered and the Charleston people are also interested in it. From this, the thought has been suggested that a through line is being engineered by the same parties from Charleston to Sumter and Wadesboro and Winston-Salem. - This idea, however, is frustrated by the road that is soon to be built from McBee to Monroe, N,. C. McBee is on the Seaboard Air Line about 30 miles from Cheraw. The road from there to Sumter will-put the latter city into connection with the productive regions of Darlington and Chesterfield counties. ~ The road from McBee to Monroe has been surveyed. Preparations are being made to begin work at once. These systems all taken together, will be of incalculable benfitto alarge section of this State and our sister State. The fertile adjoining counties of Anson in North Carolina and Chesterfield in South Carolina, which now have the poorest railroad facil- ites, will be given the best. manufacturing cities, Sumter, Wadesboro and Winston-Salem will be in direct communication with the region that produces the raw pro- duct. The producing region will have good markets, and now latent resources willbe lsid open to thor- ough development. ———— oe Oe Condition of the Penitentiary. Raleigh News and Observer 26th, Director Brown, who has recent ly visited the State farms estimates that the loss to the State from the recent floods will: aggregate some- thing near $40,000, The damage to crops alone, he places at $25,000, and to this is to be added the dam. age tothe land, ithe washing away of dikes and canals, and the expense of replacing them. It will take two months work by the convicts and penitentiary stock to replace the dikes. The crops on the lowlands are completely ruined, but on such parts of the farm as escaped the floods the cotton cropis the best ever seen. On the Caledonia farm, for instance, Mr. Brown says the Supervisor Mc- Iver has 450 acres that will make 450 bales, altogether be will make $00 or 1,000 bales. _ The peanut crop, however, is prac- tically a failure. On the 175 acres in peanuts on this farm, not more than 5,000 buskels can be harvested asfagainst the 7,000 that the same Jand would yield in an ordinary year. Some of it was overflowed as. much as five times. : Though only half acrop of corn will be raised on this farm, the yield will be about 2,500 barrels. Convicts are now at work putting — dikes and cleaning out the The uburn Prison to | Czolgosz Sentenced—Wiil be Etectro- | ' cuted the Last of October. Buffajo Dispatch, 26th, Leon F. Czolgosz, the assassin of President McKinley, was this after- | noon sentenced to be electrocuted in the Auburn State prison during the week beginning October 28, 1901. Before sentence was passed the assassin evinced a desire to speak, but he could not get his voice above a whisper and his words were re- peated to the court by his counsel. “There was noone else but me, the prisoner said in a whisper, “No one else told me to do it and no one paid me tado it. T was not toid anything about the crime and I nev- er thought anything about that until a coupleof days before I committed the crime.’”’ : Czolgosz sat down. He was quite calm but it was evident that his mind was flooded with thoughts of his own distress. His eyes were di- lated, making them heavy and bright and his cheeks were a trifle pale. The guards put the handcuffs on his wrists. He looked at one of the offi- cers. There was an expression of the profoundest fear and helplessness in hiseyes. He gianced about at the people who crowded together in efforts to get a look at him. The prisoner’s eyelids rose and fell and then he fixed his gaze upon the floor in front of him. Czolgorxz Sees His Relatives for the ee Last Time. Buffalo Dispafth, 27th, gosz, father, brother and sister of Leon Czolgosz, the assassin of Pres- ident MeKinley, were granted an in- terview with the prisoner in the Erie county jail today. Assistant Dis- Assistant Superintendent of Police P. V. Cussack, were preseat under instructions of District Attorney Penney throughout the interview. No other person will be allowed to see the prisoner until after the sen- tence of death is imposed tomorrow | afternoon. The interview between the assassin and his father, brother and sister lasted 35 minutes, but 60 iuformation leading to the implica- tion of any one else in an anarchist plot to kill the President was given by the prisoner “s moe nothing that we did not know before,” said Assistant District Attorney Haller, at the conclusion of the conference, “He talked more than he bas at any time, but even to his family he was not very communicative. ”’ But little of the conversation which passed be- tween themembers of the family could be gleaned. The officials said that the conversation was naturally such as would occur at such a meet- ing and that it was better to throw At this pomt Judge Titus came over to the prisoner and bade him good-bye. Czolgosz replied very faintly, letting his eye rest upon the man who had been his counsel. “Good bye,’ he said weakly. Gzol- gosz was then hurried downstairs and through ‘the Tunnel of Sobs”’ to the jail, where he will remain un- til removed to Auburn to pay the penalty for his crime. asera aA SS oe McLaurin B&.

The Senator came away feeling quite cheerful and it is un- derstood was assured that be will practically control Federal appoint remainder of the administration. This does not mean that none but McLaurin Democrats will be ap pointed to office, but does mean when Republicans are named he will be consulted, and also means that when the appointment of a McLau- rin Democrat to a Federal office wil! have the effect to disrupt the Dem- ocratic organization, that it will be done and McLaurin will be allowed to name the man.

Dispatch 27th. News has deen received here of a terrible disaster in Presidio county, pear the Rio Grande on the 25th inst 13 men who were prospecting for cinnibar losing \their lives in floods caused by a water spout or cloud burst. The dead are: William Bolis George Holton, Henry Carter, Her- nandez Costello, Philip Humphreys, Peter Schaeffer, Alfredo Monteze, William Jefferson, Thomas Frezzell, Algernon Rhea, Casper Deutschman George Ainsch, Gabriel Carr. The men were in two parties camped one mile apart in adry ra- vine known as Alaminto creek, in which there had been: no water for 15 months on account of the drought. The men wereasleep at 9 o'clock when there was a cloud burst sever- al miles up the ravine. A volume of water 20 feet high washed down the channel of the rayine and swept ov- er the men in the two camps before they were aware of their danger, All were drowned and up to this time only six bodies have been re- covered. The Alaminto empties in- to the Rio Grande not far from where the fatality occurred and it is more than probable that the other seven bodies have been swept into that stream. —— eee Lightning Made Streakson His Back, Ashland; Wis.

He asserted, as he has from the outset, that he did the deed alone and unaided, and that no other per- sonin the world was concerned in the trayedy. Severaltimes when he was pressed to tell the true story of the assassination, the prisoner repeated the words: “J did it alone; there was no one else.”’ The prisoner asked no hing about the other members of his family or his friends and did not give any evi- dence of sorrow or regret over the erime. The father and brother were affected, naturally, over the meeting. but they gave little out- ward evidence of it.

The mining troubles ia Hopkins county haye reached a crisis and on the recommendation of State Inspec- tor Hines, who was sent to the scene toinvestigate Governor Beckham has ordered troops sent from Bowl- ing Green and Owensboro to pro- ceed to protect the property of the operators. Hopkins county has for a month been ina state of seige and turmoil over the troubles between the mine operators and_ the union. Last November the United Mine Workers undertook to unionize the mines of Hopkins county. Some of the miners went out, but a majority preferred to continue to work for the companies, which were paying good wages. Both sides soon re sorted to force. The union miners established a camp and declared war ou the scabs. The operators hired guards to protect their property. While the county officials have used all the means at their hands to pre- serve peace, numerous afirays “have occurred; and dozens of men have been wounded, but only two deaths have occurred. Two union miners were killed by a deputy sheriff and a number ot guards. Indictments were returned and the accused parties—are now awaiting trial. Meanwhile the un- ion miners continued to harass the scab miners ard tried to keep them from going to work. ; Many of the non-union miners are negroes.

Details of the recent capture of Miss Stone, the American mission- arys, and one of her helpers oy brig- and in Turkey ace given in a letter just received by the American board of commissioners for foreign mis- sions. The facts became known to one of the missionaries of the board at Samokoo, European Turkey, to whom members of the party with whom Miss Stone and her assistant. Miss Tsilka, were traveling, when the capture was made and who fied on being «released by the outlaws. The could give no information as to where Miss Stoneand her companion were taken, as the two women dis- appeared in the night. According to the story teld by these victims. the capture was made at 4. p.m, Septemoer 3, while Miss Stone and Mrs. Tsiika. the wife of an Albanian preacher, were travel- ing with friends from Bankko to Djumao. There were 15 to 1S in the party. The bandits confronted them in a narrow valley, surrounded them to wade a river and ascepd a wood- ed mountain side for about an hour. There appeared to be about 40 brig- ands Gressed like Turks, but speak: ! ing good Bulgarian. At length a} stopping place was reached.

Battfe struck him twice in the face, Knocked him down and was then taken off by Thompson. The latter swore out a warrant before a magistrate against the mayor and Battle. Battle submitted but the mayor waived examination to let the case go directly to the court. The grand jury returned a true bill for assault against Battle, who was sentenced to 60 days on the roads. He asked_for a new trial. It was refused. He appealed and is under $500 bond. The judge said he re gretted he could not impos? a heavi- er sentence. The judge found tbe mayor guilty of an affray also. Jn imposing sentence he said: co shall not trust myself to sav any thing now because of my scarcity uf polite language.

There is likely to be another se of the case; that of conspiracy, for after the attack the mayor went to his office and found no one had telephoned for him. It was ascer A Woman's Perilous Ride.

Tbe wonderful illusion, Lunette, the Flying Lady, which has been so pop ular since iis introduction into this county, bas been booked.

The saddle and bridle offered as first prize inthe running race, for riders on their own horses, and the set of harness to be the second prize, will be exhibited previous 10 the Fair at the store of the Wyatt Har- ness Company. There are no con- ditions or fees for this race, which is a free-for-all. But what the showman would term ‘‘the indisputably overshadow- ing feature of the week’’ in the way of novelty will be the pacing and running races between horses and ostriches.

It in- terfered often with my domestic and social duties and I never supposed that I would he cured, as the doetor’s medi- cine did not seem to help me any- “Portunately a member of our Order advised me to try Pefuna and gave it such high praise that I decided to try it. Although I started in with little faith, I felt so much better in a week that I felt encouraged. “J took it faithfully for seven weeks and am happy indeed to he able to say that Iam éntfrely cured. Words fail to express my gratitude. Perfect. health once more is the best thing I could wish for, and thanks to Peruna i enjoy that now.”—MINNIE E. McALLISTER. What used to be called female diseases py the medical profession is now called pelvic catarrh. It has been found by experience thet caterrhal diseases of the pelvic organs are the cause of most cases of female disease. Dr. Hartman was among the first of America’s great physicians to make this discovery. For forty years he has been treating diseases peculiar to women, and long ago he reached the conclusion that a woman entirely free from catarrhal affection of these organs would not be subject to female disease. He therefore began using Peruna for these cases and found it so admirably adapted to their permanent cure that Peruna has now become the most famous remedy for female disease ever known. Every- where the women are using it and prais- ingit. Peruna is not a palliative sim- ply; it cures by removing the cause of | female disease. Dr. Hartman hae probably cured more women of female ailméYts than any other living physician. He makes these | cures simply by us ag and recommend- | ing Peruna. ; | Miss Phoebe Cary Sheffield, writes ; from Seguin, Texas,.as follows: | JZ have followed your directions and | treatment, and will always thank you for your kindness. Your medicine is the | only medicine that gave me relief from | heavy pains in my chest, on account of which I could hardly rest at night. Sev- eral of my friends thought I would go into consumption. I now think I am well, but will always have @ bottle of Peruna in the house. / think Peruana is the best medicine in the world, for I went to my home dostors and they neverdid me any good, but when I took your medicine it did me all the good in the world. I have recommended your wonderful treatment to my friends. Since I have taken Peruna! look like a new woman.”’=--Miss P. C. Sheffield. Mrs. William Kenning, Mt. Clemens, Mich., writes: “I am happy to be able to write you that I am now again well. I was not well for a year, and did not know what ailed me. Last fall I got a bottle of Pe- yuna. It did me good. I wrote to Dr. Hartman for a book ‘Ils of Life,’ and he luckily sent me 2 book about my dis- ease. “My disease was catarrh of the head, eyes, stomach and liver, and he said if I would follow his advice I would scon be well. I followed the directions closely, and am now entirely well.”—Mrs. Wil- liam Kenning. Congressman Thad. M. Mahon, of Chambersburg, Pa., writes: «<] take pleasure in commending your Peruna as 2 substantial tonic and a good catarrh remedy."’--T. M. Mahon.

President Roosevelt has appointec ex-Governor Thomas G. Jones, of Alabama, United States judge of the Middle and Northern districts of Alabama. Gov. Jones has been a Democrat, but voted for Palmer and Buekner in 1896 and against the proposed disfranckisement of the ,eeroes in the recent constitutional convention of his State, of which he was a member. President Roosevelt is troubled with the dream of a “respectable white Republican party in tke South’’ which beld cut faise hopes of Republican control ot Southern States to several of his predecessors. life will find that appointing former Democrats to office will not tempt the Democratic masses from their allegiance tothe party of their fath- ers. Former Democrats can be fonnd to accept offices at the bands of the Republican party and the wil) become Republicans themselves, _ATrip Through the Mountains, | Raleigh Post, Sth.

McLaurin is “‘strictly in it”? with the Republican powers tbat be, but the South Carolina Democrats will attend to his case. ——ntl oe Probabiy, if judges would impris- on convicted perjurers, Republican collectors of internal revenue would be prevented from appointing them to office.

This tour will begin on the loth. ‘Tne trips are planned, the Prefes sor said, in order to let themembers of the party, most of whom are mem bers of Congress, see the exact cop- Qition of things in the mountains— how the great forests of that section are being destroyed—so that they may be able to speak of the facts at first hand when tbey come to discuss the Appalachian Park bill at the ap- proachiug session of Congress. There will be no attempt to tell them the faats before they reach the scene; the couatry is to speak for itself_and Professor Holmes has no doubt that the distinguished men who are mak- ing the tour will speedily become converts to the Park project. There will be no receptions or hurrabs on the trip. — nn Widow Charged With Many Crimés. Dayton, O., Dispatch, 7th. Mrs. A. J. Witwer, a widow re- siding in this city, has been arrest- ed by the police at the insti<ation of the coroner and is held a prisoner at the central station, pending an investigation into very serious charges. Mrs. Witwer is suspected of fourteen murders, the list includ- ing four husbands, five children, one sister and four members of different families in which she was employed as housekeeper. Toe last supposed victim was her sister, Mrs. Anna Pugh, who died a week ago under mysterious circumstances. An au; topsy performed at the request of Mrs, Witwer’s mother, who came here from Detroit, is said to have disclosed the presence of arsenic and copperas in the stomach. Follow- ing closely upon the death of her first husband. Fred, Schweger, came, accordin:s to police department data, the death of two children. The sec- ond husband died suddenly several years after the wedding and the children of this marriage died in rapid succession. Her last husband, A.J. Witwer, died last April. In each instance death was somewhat sudden and all were strargely alike. The prisoneris 47 years of age and formerly lived in. Middletown, this State. She has two sons in the Philippines, and a sister,it is stated, ina New York asylum. No con- eeivable motive for the suspected crimes has beea disclosed. Drugs which were found in the house occu- a by Mrs. Witwer. will be examin- ed. —————i> «i> 0 <a Sudden Death of Ex-Marshall Carroll, Mozehead City Dispatch, qth. Mr.O, J.

He says: ‘As conditions are now I am not looking for the place. Were the nomination to be given ma, however, I would makeas energetic a fight as lies in my power. I believe there isa good chance to elect a Democratic senator this time. It would be necessary, however, for the Democratic state convention to nominate a candidate for the senatorship’’ We hope Mayor Harrison will enter into the race actively. Our strongest men must fight for the control of the great States of the North and West if we hope to win the next Presi— dential race. ‘Senator Harrison, of I}linois’’ would sound all right, * * * We stated last week that Presi- dent Roosevelt had appoivted Loom-— is Blalock, a McLaurin ‘Commercial’ collector of internal revenue of South Carolina. This was a mistake. It was given out from Washington that this appointment was agreed upon, but President Roosevelt changed his mind and decided upon Dr. V. P. Clayton, and old-line Republican, for the place. It is said that McLaurin’s man: Stewart, a distant relative of the President, will be appointed postmaster at Newberry. It is given out that President Roosevelt feels that itis not necessary to give Mc- Laurin patronage to control his votes in the Senate— that to all intents and purposes McLaurin is already a full-fledged Republican. And, yet, we have pretended Democrats here in North Carolina who praise McLaurin and claim that he isa Democrat. A Loyal Democrat on the Threatened Bolt. Morganton Herald. The Statesville Landmark, of last Friday serves notice on the next Democratic State convention that it must not name Walter Clark for chief justice, and in the event it does, swears that there will bea rumpus in the Democratic kitchen. The Landmark will balk. So willa “ood many Democrats.’’ Lucifer will not fall alone from heaven, but will drag a third or soof thestars with him. The Landmark suggests that Clark’s nomination will afflict it, and folk ofits kidney with nausea. We bey to say most respectfully to our Statesville confrere that such Democracy is not worth b—I room in a powder house, and if these lib- erty-loving gentlemen seek to enter the next conveation with any such views, with the purpose of terroriz- ing it with threats, it were wiser in them to stay outside. We want no Democrats on condition— with strings tied to them. We want Democrats in that body,—men who will feel fastened by their honor to the nominees whoever they may be. The surgery may be such as to bring tears, but for the health of the party such Democracy ought to be lopped off at once. Weare not wedded to the canlidacy of Judge Clark. We do reyird him as one of the ablest jurists and scholars ia the South, as 2 Christian gentleman and patriot of whom the State has license to be pond. Butthat is another matter. Above all men and measures towers the question of party loyalty, and this bold avowal of party treason by our contemporary should be enough to keep it and ail men who sanction it. by their own volition, out of ac tive participation in the conven- tion. soe Republicanism and Anarchy. Raleigh News ana Observer. : i A Republican postmaster in Vir- ginia—one of the ‘commercial ilk who went over for an office—is quoted as saying that if J. Hampton Hoge is elected Governor this fall the new Constitution will never be enforced but the “the militia will be used, if necessary, to maintain the paramountcy of the present Consti- tution’’ giving all the negroes the right to vote. The Republican office holder who predicted this anarchy isthe brother of J. Hoge. and_he ought to know what new sort of dev- ilment his brother would perpetrate if elected to office. The last time he was appointed to office be made a disgraceful spectacle of himself by appearing drunk in most of the cit- ies between Washingtoc and San Francisco. When Mr. Cleveland properly and promptly dismissed him from office. J. Hoge proceeded to join the Republican party and it promptly made him its leader, gave his brother a big office, and is now trying to make him governor. That is the way the much advertised ‘‘re- spectable Republican party in the South”’ is being officered. Wherever Republicans wio in the South, confusion, scandals, anarchy follow as certain as night follows day. We hadall three in North Carolina under Russel! and all three with assassination added in Ken- tucky and now the brother of the Republican candidate for Governor of Virginia threatens lawlessness if the Republicans carry the Old Dom- inion this year.

A detachment of the Twenty-first Company of Mcabebes today encoun- tereda large force of insurgents near Lipa, province of Batangas. Lieutenant Beau, of the Macabebes, was killedand one of the force was wounded. The enemy was strongly intrenched. After two kours of fighting the Americans retreated to await reenforcements. The insur- gents numbered over 300, were arm- ed with Remington and Mauser rifles and apparently had plenty of am- munitioa. Rabe ter avin Reasons Why. Raleigh News and Observer’ Ex-Gov. Builock. the Republican leider in Georgia commends the ap- pointment of ex Gov. Jones upon tbree grounds: 1. Because he *‘sup- ported the Republican financial pol- icy’’; 2. Because he ‘‘opposed”’ the disfranchisement of colored citizens by the late Alabama constitutiona! convention,’ and 2. Because he was ‘‘heartily recommended for the position by Booker T Washington.’’ These are three reasonsthat appeal to Gov.

The colony descended from a home- less female dog which took refuge on the farm something over two years ago. She produced a litterof pups and these in turn grew up and mul- tiplied. Messrs. Frank McArver and Ed. Jenkins from timeto time have been killing them as they have been able to get within gun-shot range of the wild canines. until now only about two remain. These dogs lived in the ground and fields. They had deep dens of refuge burrowed outin the swamps, where they had comfortable and romantic headquar- ters under ground. In summer they lay under the thick cotton and peas and other growing crops. At night they chased the hare and prow!ed about the neighbors’ premises, but they were seldom to be seer by day- — Through a Sea of snakes. Philadelphia Record, rth. Plowing through aseaof snakes was the novel experience of Captain Robinson, of the Easingwold, which arrived yesterday from Java with a cargo of sugar. Captain Robinson stated that in crossing the Indian Ocean the vessel ran into a mass of snakes, the likeof which he never saw in his 43 years at sea. The reptiles formed a belt 15 miles long and overtwo milesin width. The snakes were of all sizes, averag- ing about three feet in length. They were feeding upon aa unknown sub- stance, evidently brought to the sur- face of the water by a volcanic up- beaval. The snakes were first sighted on the morning of August 6. the vessel being about 43 miles southwest from Ceylon. For two hours she plowed through the sea of snakes, many of which were taken on board and prov- ed to be of an unknown species: Sa Sbot a Woman and Himself, New York Dispatch, rth. Mrs. Lucy H. Carroil, who liyed with her father at 76 South Elliot Place, Brookiyn, was shot and seri- ously wounded at her home early this morning by @ man known as Capt John &. Neilson. The woman was shot three times. Neilson then shot himself in the right temple and died instantly. Mrs. Carroll told the police that she did not know the @an who had shot her. ‘I was awakened,’’ said Mrs. Carroll, “by seeing a man in my room. I was muchalarmed and cried ‘What do you want here?’ Without reply the intruder drew a revolver and fired three times and then turned and shot himself. Ido not know him, nor can I imavine,why he should have entered my rooms.”’ The police found a portrait of Neilson in Mrs. Carroll’s rooms and when she was told of this sha said she had known Neilson for some time; that he had paid her much at- tention and had been very jealous recently. Neilson was about 33 years of age and was at onetime a seacaptain. Mrs. Carroll is about 30 vears old. Her father whose name is Kornder, isadry goods merchant with a, place of business in Brooklyn. According to the police, the woman’s husband enlisted a year or more ago 1n a United States en- gineering corps.

He had performed service on the transports Cante and Arethusa and had sailed as second officer on the Steamship Givonne. Upon bis re- turn from his first trip to the Phil- ippines he carried a letter of intro- duction to Mrs. Carroll from her husband, and from that time on be- came a visitor at her parents’ home. “IT hadlong suffered from iIndi- gestion,’’ writesG.

A Hehderson Man’s Troubles. Asheville Dispatch, 12th. A case was taken up before Justice Ware today which developed the fact thata Henderson county man of the name of Prince has had more than his share of domestic trouble. jt seems that Prince. who lived near Baifoar, had a wife, two children, a cow and t-vo supposed friends. While Prince was at work one of the friends stole his wife and took herto Tennessee, while the other friend stole his cow, brought the animal to Ashevilic and sold her to a dutcher. Prince found himself in what had once been his happy home withtwo little children with not even any cow’s milk. Prince said be did not care if the faithless woman never came back, but he wanted the cow and came here yesterday in search of the animal. When he iearned that she had been sold to a butcher, he went to the slaughter house to see if he could find one of the horns by which, he said, he could identify her, as on it there could be found acertain mark. The horr could not be found, but the hide was there. John Ballew is the man who is said to have stolen the cow, and he was arrested by Sheriff Lee near Candler Station, in this county. pate UT is Thrown Into the Sea.

He was away nearly ten years. He went from hereto Hong Kong, China where he was secretary to Mr. Jer- nigan, minister to China at that time. He is now living at Honolulu, where he has extensive landed inter- ests. He tells a thrilling experience he; P@rdoned Elijah Warren, of Pike had while on his way from the Klon- dike, where he had been on business. The night was very warm and Mr. Dortch, with many others, concluded to sieep on deck. During the night some one approached him and be- gan trying to search hin. Realiz- ing that it was a robber Mr. Dortch clinched him and during the scuffle he was severely qut on the leg and in several places on the hand. The indignant passengers came near lynching his assailant, who was one of the ship’s crew.

When the Senate committee on military affairs today resumed its inquiry of the charges against Lieu- tenant Cclcnel Heistand, Major Hawkes, the prosecuting witness, was Cailed to submit seme evidence in reburtal which he Gesired to pre- sent. Major Hawkes, iv correcting his testimony, had added a state- ment that Judge Boyd was not to subscribe for hemp stock, but was to receive it for the use of his name. This called out several questions as to the division of stock and Hawkes said it was understood that the names of other parties were not to appear on the stock books. Toavoid this, it was agreed between himself and Heistand that the $150,000 of stock was to becarried in Hawkes’ name, Senator Cockrell asked him why he had not testified to this be- fore as it wasa very important mat- ter. Major Hawkes said he had never said anything to any of the parties about the matter. Under close questioning Major Hawkes admitt- ed he had said to Judge Boyd that he was not to pay for the stock ‘‘or words to that effect,”’ He was ask- ed what reply Judge Boyd made and said he answered that it was all right ‘‘or werds to that effect.’’ Replying to questions by Senator Cockrell Hawkes said he had been oa very friendly terms with Judge Boyd and would have spared him if He added that he was much disap- pointed in the evidence given by the several witnesses before the commit- tee. Senator Cockrel! asked him how he could be disappointed when he was informed before all of them that they had no connection with the hemp company. Hawkes re- plied that he expected they would testify differently, *-Don’t you think they have sworn to the truth?” inquired Senator Cockrell. ‘I do not,’’ retorted Hawkes hotly.

Cass, of this county, was convicted of stealing a horse and received a sentence of five years in the penitentiary. After serving a short while he made his escape. Later he was captured and taken back. In 1886 he again made his escape and was not captured until Monday night. Monday Mr. W. Y. Wilson, of Raleigh, came up and went down to Osborneville, the old bome of Cass, where he .was arrest- ed. Mr. Wilson left for Raleigh Tuesday with Cass. Cass is 71 years old, and we learn that an effort will be made to secure his pardoa. Clark for Chief Justice. Wilmington Messenger. Thus far, if we are rightly iniorm- ed, there is but one Democrat who is urged for the high office of Chief Justiceof the Supreme Court of North Carolinr. Mr. Justice Walter Clark. Heis rightfully entitled to that honor if the law of service and succession is regarded. Heis an able lawyer and an unusually accom- plished gentlemen. The smell of suspicion has neyer been upon his judicialrobes. He ought to have been made Chief Justice wnen that weak ‘‘legal brother,’’ Justice Fair- cloth, was appointed by Governor Russell, for he was by precedent the man for the place. In 1902 be wiil have been for six years the senoir Justice on the Supreme Benci of commission: So far as we can learn Judge Clark isrunaing no * machine” to procure his nomination. He has scores of influential friends all aroun- the State who are for him first, last, all the time. We would not wrive this simple act of justice and rec»z nition if other gentlemen were op- posing him, for the Messeaoyer is no candidate maker.“ There are several gentlemen announced the jasticeship and some of them are every way worthy of honor and promotion.

Cowles, clerk of the Federal Court, attended meeting of Republicans in Greensboro Saturday. Prominent Republicans, most of them federal of- . fice holders, from all sections of the State attended. Of course Senator Pritebard was the chief mogul of the meetiog. The Senator gave out a statement of the work of the gath- ering wnich was evidently intended to conceal what was really done. Jim Young aad John C. Dancy, the two leading negro oflice holders of the State, were in attendance. We understand that the ‘‘giad band’’ was given to the ‘‘commer- cials’’ and that the negro was told that he would still be allowed to vote the Republican ticket but that be must make no noise about it, as he might scare away the ‘“‘commercial”’ gentry. We also learn that Senator Pritchard really expects to be re- elected to the Senate, and that he relies on the ‘‘commercials’’ to fur- nish the necessary votes. The one ghost of the Greensboro meeting was the uncertainty of President Roosevelt’s future movements. While every federal office-holder present was anxious to welcome the ‘“‘eommercials,’’ he was still uneasy :hat his place might be the one se- ected asthe feast of welcome for the expected recruit, and your Re- wudlican office-kolder, like most oth- er people, dces not desire that he himself be sacrificed ‘for the good ef the party’’—heis notin the pro tas bouo publico business at all. > one Senator Pritchard’s much adver- se ountv, was pulled off Tuesday. negroes.

The Enterprise last week has this to say of the matter: “The town can well afford to build a town hallat acost of probably $2, 500, or $3,000. The taxes for the present year will amount to about $16,50, and of that amount about $700 will defray the expenses of the town. That will leave about $900 surplus. And then the town will be reimbursed from the HarveyMcLean debt in the sum of about 3500, giv- inga surplus of about $1,400. This sum with an additional amount suffi- cient to build and furnish a nice hall can be raised without a great deal of trouble and without the assess- 5 ¢ 4% es a Atl the conclusion of ment of extra taxation.’’ Itis well dows that thetax rate in Moores— vilie is extremely low, and yet the Enterprise says that even this low rate willyielda surplus revenue of about $900. There are few towns of over 1,500 pepulation, in this or any other State, where #700 will defray the expenses of the town govern- isent, or the tax levy for one year yield enough money to run the town ioc two years.

A EE The Wireless Messages Became Pied Whea Sent Simultaneously. Philadelphia Record. Three systems of wireless telegra- phy were used in reporting the re- cent races cff Sandy Hook, and an expert from the bureau of equipment of tae Navy Department was detail- ed to report upon them. His report to Rear Admiral Bradford, chief of the bureav, shows that when three instruments were working together it was impossible to read the messa- ges sent. The operators finally a- greed to divide the time, so that no two instruments would be in use simultaneously; and thusthe diffi- culty was obviated. It is this de fect of interference that has delayed the installation of the wireless sys- tem on board Uncle Sam’s warships. Until it shall have been overcome the bureau of equipinent will be strongly inclined to stick to the sys- tem of naval signals now in use. _ Do you suffer from piles?

The county board of education was in session last week and trans acted a number of items of routine Dusiness. Superintendent Butler was directed to have a list of the text books to be taught in the schools posted in every schoo! house in the county, so that the pupils can sce what books should be ised and the price of the same. ! Capt. J. B. Burwell wasappointed | to select the books for the school libraries in the county. There are six of these libraries and the follow- Ing were appointed local mauagers: School district No. 3, Concord town- ship, A. C. Sharpe; district No. 3, Sharpesburg, E. S.

The monument is bein.r erected by R «a. Stone, executor of the late Mrs. Emiline Summers, who died some years ago. Mrs. Summers left her property to her husband, Asa Summers during his lifetime. At his death the property was to be converred into cash and used in put- ting up suitable monuments to the memory of her husband and herself, her father and mother and two rothes, Hiram and Eli Potts and three sisters, Millie, Sophia and Dovie Potts—nine monuments in all oeing provided for. : Asa Summers died this year and in settling the estate Mr. Stone found he would have about $1,400 to be used ‘in putting up the moau- ments. Mr. Stone’s plan is an original one and calls for a: foundation, 33x7 feet. large enough to cover all the graves This will be of Rowan eranite and will contain three car-loads and weigb 74.000 pounds. This founda- tion will rise on either side by feur steps to the center when it reaches the height of six feet. In the cen- ter will stand a monument of eleven feet high; on each step, four on either side of the center will be niaced a shaft six feet high.

Since he was defeated for judge in 1894 with vl of the Demceratie ticket, he bas ‘abored in the ranks and unselfishly sided in promo:ing others and the success of his party. The State chairmen and many of the county chairmen know how true this is. Perhaps no lawyer in this district practices in so many counties in the district as he does, and he is there- fore probably more intimately known by the people and bar of this judicial district than any of his brother lawyers. He isso eminently qualified for judge that 1t would be the just and appropriate thing for the Demo- cratic judivial convention of this district to nomiuate him for judge of the district by acclamation. If the district convention does this, the 10th district and the State -vill have 3 judye on the bench who can be relied upon on all occasious and who will be equal to any emeryency. ae ae Where the Gospel is Preached. The protracted meeting at the West End Methodist church, which closed last Thursday evening, was almost as fruitful in reclamations as in conversions. Rev. J. F. Butt preached the word with earnestness and power and endeared himself to the congregation. The meeting at the First Metho. dist church, which began last Wed- nesday eveniny, is still in progress aud will continue for several days. There are two services daily, ‘one at 3:30 p. m. and one at7 p. m. Rey. M. A. Smith, the pastor, is conduct ing the meetings and is doing some good preaching. At the First Presbyterian church prayer meeting services have been heldeyery afternoon at 5 o'clock. preparatory to the series of meet~ ings to beheld there by Rev. Dr. Caldwell, of Winston.

N. L. Baker, the bas- so, has a yoice of wide range and much sweetness of toneespecially in the lower notes. He is also some-! what of a comedian and esught the majority of his audieace by his droll ways.-The most enjoyabie number on the program was ‘Juanita’ as sung oy the quartet, next to this coming “Lead Kindly Light’’ with which hey opened. The work of the reader, Thos. Ea- nore Lucey, savored of mediocrity. The music given by the quartet was alllight, only popular airs being ung. Many of the music loving seople in the audience would have snjoyed theevening much more if a different grade of music had been sung partofthe time. The splendid voice of the basso would appear to udvantage in something not quite so simple. But everyone got their :noney’s worth, if they cared at all ior music. The next entertainment in the course will be on the 25th of November. the Bartum Orphans’ Home Meet. 7L. regents of Barium Springs Orphins’ Home met at the Home ‘uesday. Those present were Revs. d.

There was nothiny strange in Satis- bury’s young people running away to yet married, but the couple seems to have been wetting away from the groom's brother, The young people were Mr Elijah Hennessee and Miss Carrie Plyler. They were accom- panied by an older sister of the bride, Miss Lillian Plyler andcame from Salisbury in private convey- ance They droveinto town about lo’clock. Wheo the young man called on Register Turner for the license he met with unexpected dif- ficulties. Mr. Turner believes in promoting matrimony, but he does- n't issue marriage license unless he is sure of the lady’s age;so the anxious young man had to bring in his best giri and her sister, and all swear that the would-be bride was iS be fore he got the license. By this time quite a number of men had yathered in hopes of seeing the knot tied; but the young lady objected to satisfying idle curiosity. They drove from the court house to Rev. J. & Pressiy where ‘hey were made man and wife. The vroom told the minister that he was in a hurry, so Mr. Pressly didn’t waste much time. Mtr. J. K. Morrison who wes with Mr Pressly at the time saw the knot tied. Mr. Hennessee works at Spencer, while Miss Plyler is a daughter of Rev. Calvin Plyler, formerly of this county. It was stated that the young lady’s parents didn’t object to the match; but that the groom’s brother did. However all’s well thaterds well, and here’s hoping Mr. ard Mrs. Hennéssee were duly forgiven. eae nes Mysterious Disappearance of a Drunk- en Negro. All Statesville folks known Geo. Simonton, colored, the tree planter and whiskey drinker; but in spite of George’s being so well kuown, no one who knows him has seen or heard of bim since last Friday even ing. Thatevening George went to a corn shucking on the J. C. Sullivan place just east of town. He was seen at the shucking -and was in his usual condition—full of liquor. George seems to have vanished into the airsince Friday night, as his friends have been unable to find kim although they have made diligent in- quiry. It is thought by someof ther that he has gone to parts uo known and by others that he wand- ered off somewhere and lay down in adrunken stupor which ended in death. Be thatis it may George’s disappearance is somewhat of a mys- tery;eod heis missed from bis ac the case. Custuwed hbaucts on barroom al ley: 47, Long n: 6a Candidate for tne Sy- Sou.

Some of the men who have talked with the president on the situation in the southerr states have come away from the white house impressed by frankness and independence in speaking of the race question but at ithe same time many of them have | been convineed that he does not fully appreciate how dilficult it is for the white man of the south to place him- self on a personal equality with the negro.

It was stated at tae State Department of prisons to- day that statements to the effect that Czolgo-z is in 2a continuous state of collapse and that he breaks dows and weeps every time any- hing is said to him concerning the elecirocution are false Superintendent Collins had a taik ! vith the condemned man some days} ago and that at that time be said he knew he hadtodie.

Since his confinement in Auburn prison several thousand letters have been received for himatthe prisoa as weli as a large number of express packages containing flowers and feuit.

The flowers and fruit, it is iearued, have beea seus by Christian societies, as bave a number of letters consoling himia his last moments. ‘tther letters havecome from cranks who have written about the species of torture tc which they would put him if they had the execution of justice in his case.

And he has the right to do this witheut saying so much as ‘by your ‘eave’ to any human being. When President Roosevelt invited the negro teacher, Booker Washington, to dine witb him he did what was clearly his rigbt todo. Itis true that in so doing he was the first President who has sat down todinner with a negro as kis guestin the history of tbe Republic. He boldly crossed social ines which other Presidents have not crossed. ‘Tkey gave offices to negroes, on some occasions they re- eeived negro officials at their public functioes, but Mr. Roecsevelt proes 3 step further and invires one to 3 private dinner. Being so radical a departure from social custom and social usage. it will naturaliy be the subject of some comment. But, whatever the comment as tothe new President's breaking duwn old social eustoms at the White House, it -hould be remembered that Mr. Rocsevelt in bis own home has a rignt to choose his guests without consulting anybody to bis private dinners. though he bas not always rhe right of choice at State dinners. ‘Tbe only comment that may be made in this counecticn is that, however it may be viewed by “Mr. Roosevelt and oz:hers in the North. i, is not a precedent that wiil en :ourage Southern men to join hands sith Mr. Roosevelt. Call it what on please—prejudice, provincialism, a retic of the war or what not—it is ‘eeply rooted iv the minds of the Southeru people that the only true position for the races is one of abso inte social! seperation.

Tbenumber of injured is not known definitely, but fully a score of victims were treated at various hospitals.

Charles H= Armfield has a good chance to win this nomination, he deserves to win it and we believe be will win it. Senator Pritchard and Congress man Moody went to Washington ist week to recommend ex-Judge Spencer B. Adams, of Greensboro, to the President as 2 Successor to the late Judge Fuller on the Court of Private Land Claims, President Roosevelt told them that as Juage Fuller was a Democrat he would ap- poiat a Democrat as bis successor, althoueh he did rot state that it vould bea North Carolina Demo- crat. Senator Pritchard then rec- ommended ex-Attorney General Frank I Osborne, of Charlotte, and it is probable that he will be ap- t pointed. In the meantime Senator *, North Carolina cratic Congressmen will meet Vashingtog today to agree, if they can, uvona Democratto revom- mend for appointment. Under the law the minority party Must representation on the court, an if a Democrat is to be appointed the Democratic Sepator and Congress- men should name the man, as in this way the President will certainly get a Democrat. The probabilities are, as we stated above, that Senator Pritchard will control the appoint ment. ————— et A report comes from Washington that many Southern Congressmen favor ex-Senator Arthur P.Gorman, of Maryland, as the Democratic candidate for President in 1904 If Gorman wins in the campaizn which is now closing in his State and is re elected to the Senate, he will be a very formidable candidate before the convention. The result of the Maryland election next week 15 in grave doubt, however, and Demo- ratic defeat there will eliminate Gorman from the race. We kope he will win, for he is one of the ab- lest of Democrats and the party could run much worse candidates. Damocratsin Wasbington are also discussing Admital Schley as a poss- ible candidate. It’s too early yet. Lect’s wait until after the elections of 1962, when the coming Moses may be revealed to us. Se ap oe Sofar Associate Justice Walter Clark is the only candidate for the Democratic nomination for chief justice. For the associate justice- ship conceded to the East Judge George H. Brown, Jr., of Beaufort county, and ex Judge Henry G. Con- nor, of Wilson, are candidates There are several! candidates for the associate justiceship which will be. given to the West. They are: Chas. H. Armfield, of Iredell: James A. Lockhart, of Anson; ex Judge Chas. Mooreand F. A. Sondley, of Bun- combe, and Platt D. Walker. of Mecklenburg. Ex-Judge W. J. Montgomery, of Cabarrus, whé had been‘mentioned as a possible candi- date, prints a card in which he an- nounces that his name will not go before the convention. > <<: = That was good advice Governor Aycock gave the negroes at the op- ening of their State Fair Tuesday, In his own sphere the negro ean do much for his race, and ail rigat thinking Southern white men will rejoice at the betterment of his con- dition.

Crawfordsville, Ind , Dispatch, 25th. Nine years ago the 10-year-old daughter of Peter Beil, a miller liv- ing at St. Mary’s Mercer county, Ohio, failed to return home from school. ‘be belief was general that she had been drowned. Her father, however, refused to believe the story and spent his meagre savings search ing for ber. He finally became con- vineed, howeyer, that the girl was dead. Abana of Gypsies camped near the Bell’s Mill last August one of them, out of reverge, told Bell that his child had been abducted by 2 gang of Gypsies nine years ago. He said be had come all tne way from Mexico, Mo., to inform the father of the whereabouts of his caild. Beil at once made preparations to goin search of the girl, aud with Mes. Gell and their other daughter started for Indianapolis by wagon -There they sold the wagon and began the journey on foot. They walked to Peoria, Ills., from there to Quin- cy, to Keokuk, lowa, and finally traced the band of Gypsies to Car- thave. Arriving; there last Satur- day, the Bells found the band in camp. When the leader was con- frouted by the father of the girl and local officers, he drew a gun, but tne officers overpowed him and he gave up the girl. The young woman says~she has been compelled to beg food and cloth- ing for the entire band of Gypsies, who atalltimes have treated her cruelly. Mr. Bell intends to have the Gypsies indicted and extradited to Mercer county, Ohio, for trial. Hehas spent bis last cent in the search for his daughter. EO = Fwo Picaninzies and & Bombshell.
