Modern Travel. <lb/>
A recent trip over the Blue <lb/>
lite. New York to Washington and re- <lb/>
turn, impressed writer strongly <lb/>
as to the wonderful possibilities regard- <lb/>
steed and luxury in railway travel <lb/>
in America. Having been in nearly <lb/>
every State in the Union and over a <lb/>
large part of Europe we are prepared to <lb/>
feel ourselves acquainted with railway <lb/>
thoroughly, and while in <lb/>
no way failing to the splendid <lb/>
service furnished the public by the great <lb/>
railway lines of America, the writer be- <lb/>
that he is stating nothing too <lb/>
strongly in saying that in bis judgment <lb/>
there is not a service In the world, which <lb/>
taken as a whole, will compare with the <lb/>
famous Blue Cine, composed of <lb/>
the Central Railroad New Jersey, the <lb/>
Philadelphia and Rending and Baltimore <lb/>
and Ohio Railroads. Not only Is the <lb/>
time made between these points, via <lb/>
this line, the quickest ever made between <lb/>
Washington, but with a <lb/>
road bed that is simply perfect, and an <lb/>
equipment so luxurious as to leave <lb/>
to be desired, it no doubt <lb/>
the fluent service of any line in the world. <lb/>
Every train via the Bin Line is <lb/>
vestibuled from end to end, and consists <lb/>
not only of the most luxurious <lb/>
and sleeping cars ever made by the Pull- <lb/>
man Palace Car Company, but also of <lb/>
palatial day coaches far superior to the <lb/>
parlor cars ran on many lines, with <lb/>
smoking compartments fitted in drawing <lb/>
room cars. Although the service is so <lb/>
superior the time so quick, on no <lb/>
train are there any extra charges. To <lb/>
those who desire accommodations in the <lb/>
drawing room or sleeping cars only the <lb/>
regular additional charges are asked, <lb/>
and on all of the vestibuled day <lb/>
coaches are run open to the public with- <lb/>
out any extra charges whatever. The <lb/>
dining car service attached to the <lb/>
pal trains in keeping with the splendid <lb/>
of the Hue's services the <lb/>
equal to the best hotels of the <lb/>
country. It is no wonder that the Royal <lb/>
Blue Line has attained phenomenal pop- <lb/>
and it has not attained its <lb/>
by any other reason than that it de- <lb/>
It. It is so incomparably <lb/>
to any ever inaugurated be- <lb/>
tween York Washington that <lb/>
it tie if the public did <lb/>
not patronize it so lint certainly <lb/>
no one who wants best should take <lb/>
any other, and when It is considered that <lb/>
for the finest service in the world <lb/>
additional charges of any description <lb/>
a.-e required, it should n as it does, <lb/>

She at once consulted the vicar, <lb/>

time with the impious one in order <lb/>

Chicago Herald. <lb/>
Mr. Smith tells of an instance <lb/>
illustrating the peculiar methods <lb/>
of Mexican administration of <lb/>
in connection with railways. <lb/>
A friend of mine was on trial for <lb/>
his life on a charge of <lb/>
down near He had <lb/>
been running a passenger train <lb/>
and had the misfortune to kill a <lb/>
man walking on the track. He had <lb/>
been in jail for several months, <lb/>
and finally Minister Osborne, who <lb/>
was then in Mexico, succeeded in <lb/>
having his case called for trial. <lb/>
Now, the Mexicans never listen to <lb/>
expert testimony. They might <lb/>
hear you and me in our own de- <lb/>
but unless we could <lb/>
orate testimony by some tangible <lb/>
like physical <lb/>
we would cut poor figure. <lb/>
In the case I refer to the author- <lb/>
insisted upon having the en- <lb/>
reproduce precisely the <lb/>
condition of affairs which led to <lb/>
the accident. Accordingly the <lb/>
railroad company had to rig up a <lb/>
train of cars, precisely like that in <lb/>
which the accident occurred. It <lb/>
had to be loaded with just as many <lb/>
people as the original train had on <lb/>
board. It had to have the same <lb/>
engine and be taken to precise <lb/>
spot where the accident occurred. <lb/>
A dummy figure was prepared to <lb/>
stand the exact spot where the <lb/>
man was killed. Then the jury <lb/>
were to get on the train, and the <lb/>
do was to <lb/>
take a seat in and observe <lb/>
the efforts of the engineer to stop <lb/>
in time. <lb/>
Now, the engineer who was de <lb/>
the problem was a <lb/>
friend of the man on trial. He in- <lb/>
tended to show the <lb/>
something he bad never <lb/>
before. The idea was to take the <lb/>
train over the same track. They <lb/>
went up the road about five miles <lb/>
and then switched to come back <lb/>
for the object lessor. The dummy <lb/>
was set up on the track. The <lb/>
took his place in the <lb/>
cab, leaning more than half his <lb/>
body out to better observe the <lb/>
figure, for he was to give the <lb/>
when to stop. The engineer <lb/>
let her out with a grin. He was <lb/>
not to travel more thirty <lb/>
miles an hour, but when the <lb/>
waved his hand to <lb/>
check on the <lb/>
he was going fifty. <lb/>
The fireman pulled the whistle, <lb/>
the engineer sprang to his reverse <lb/>
lever and his sandbox and gave <lb/>
her all the air in his pump. In <lb/>
less than a second the <lb/>
de was out of the <lb/>
cab window into the ditch with a <lb/>
broken ankle, the jury in the first <lb/>
passenger car were piled into a <lb/>
promiscuous the puffer <lb/>
couplers were smashed. The <lb/>
stove was upset, and yet tho mo <lb/>
was so great that the en- <lb/>
struck the straw man and <lb/>
knocked it twenty feet in the air. <lb/>
The result of that object lesson <lb/>
was that the lay <lb/>
in bed for six weeks, the engineer <lb/>
was acquitted and the jury <lb/>
the legislature of <lb/>
for a change in the laws. <lb/>

A distressing affair occurred at <lb/>
Hill Friday, news of which <lb/>
was brought here yesterday. Mrs. <lb/>
Janie Williams, daughter of Mrs. <lb/>
H. Richardson, committed suicide <lb/>
by taking morphine. The deadly <lb/>
drug she procured and concealed <lb/>
until the opportunity presented <lb/>
itself when she could take it Fri- <lb/>
day she acted rather strangely <lb/>
during the morning, but nothing <lb/>
was thought of it. as she had been <lb/>
unhappy for some time. She was <lb/>
missed Inter the day, and a <lb/>
search being instituted, was found <lb/>
in an unused room in the house, <lb/>
in an unconscious condition. <lb/>
were hastily summon-1 <lb/>
ed and everything done to save <lb/>
her life that could be, but it was <lb/>
too late ; she was beyond the reach <lb/>
of medical skill, or human aid. <lb/>
cause that prompted the <lb/>
fortunate woman to take her life <lb/>
was an unhappy marriage and a <lb/>
subsequent mutual attachment <lb/>
between another man and self- <lb/>
Two years ago husband left <lb/>
her, owing to some misunderstand- <lb/>
or unpleasantness in the <lb/>
and she became enamored cf <lb/>
another man, he of her, but as <lb/>
she was married they could not <lb/>
wed. Both became very unhappy ; <lb/>
and she often told her family she <lb/>
would not live unless she could <lb/>
marry the man she loved. This <lb/>
being impossible both began to <lb/>
pine away. The day before she <lb/>
took the fatal dose she told some <lb/>
one in the house that she didn't <lb/>
intend to live any longer, that her <lb/>
life was a misery, and she could <lb/>
not stand it. Her never <lb/>
suspected for a minute that sue <lb/>
really contemplated putting an <lb/>
end to her existence, but as she <lb/>
lay a corpse Friday tho sad story <lb/>
of a blighted life was before them. <lb/>
The man whom she was in love <lb/>
with is throwing his life away for <lb/>
love also, and was yesterday re; <lb/>
as critically ill. The <lb/>

Probably the greatest pedestrian <lb/>
feat of tho century performed in <lb/>
the United Kingdom was that of <lb/>
Bob who completed in <lb/>
1883 the unprecedented feat of <lb/>
walking mile in days. <lb/>
The task was performed to test the <lb/>
capabilities of a moderate drinker <lb/>
as compared with the endurance <lb/>
of a total abstainer. The distance <lb/>
was covered by repeated journeys <lb/>
between Black- <lb/>
pool, Manchester, Oldham, Roch- <lb/>
dale, Bury and Broughton. <lb/>
Weston, the abstainer, only com- <lb/>
miles in the same <lb/>
period- In January, 1879, Weston <lb/>
walked miles in con- <lb/>
hours, a marvelous feat <lb/>
of endurance- For a single day's <lb/>
walking W- stands first, <lb/>
having covered miles yards <lb/>
in twenty-four hours at the <lb/>

greatest distance walked in one <lb/>
hoar was miles yards, by W- <lb/>
Griffin in 1881, and in four hours <lb/>
was miles, by W- Franks in <lb/>

A Successful Charm. <lb/>
Chicago Herald. <lb/>
A poor laboring woman at <lb/>
on the Vistula, in Prussia <lb/>
had won in the lottery. She <lb/>
placed the gold pieces in a stock- <lb/>
wrapped some dirty <lb/>
chiefs around and placed it among <lb/>
her dirty linen in the loft. No- <lb/>
body would look for treasure there <lb/>
so it was safe. Sometime ago she <lb/>
wanted money, but, oh, <lb/>
stocking gold were gone. She <lb/>
applied to an old soothsayer, who <lb/>
told her to take a piece of the <lb/>
money she had left of the sum <lb/>
won, it in a piece of dirty <lb/>
linen and bury it in the graveyard. <lb/>
As the cloth began decomposing <lb/>
the thief would be seized with de- <lb/>
and die with qualms of con- <lb/>
science, forcing him or her to re- <lb/>
turn money to the rightful <lb/>

tree in that place. He was in an <lb/>
upper room of a building pacing <lb/>
the floor a party he <lb/>
wished to see, when he casually <lb/>
glanced of the window and <lb/>
saw something like a puff from a <lb/>
cigar emanating from bough <lb/>
of a small mulberry near by. <lb/>
Watching the place he saw several <lb/>
puffs rise. Thinking that some <lb/>
one was in the tree smoking he <lb/>
made an examination bat found <lb/>
the limb small to bear even <lb/>

The following is the State Dem- <lb/>

the State convention in assembly <lb/>
May 18th i <lb/>
Resolved That the <lb/>
racy of North Carolina reaffirm the <lb/>
principles of the Democratic <lb/>
party, both State and National, <lb/>
and particularly favor the free <lb/>
coinage of silver and an increase <lb/>
of the currency, and the repeal of <lb/>
the internal revenue system. And <lb/>
we denounce tariff <lb/>
bill as unjust to the consumers of <lb/>
the country, and leading to the <lb/>
formation of trusts, combines and <lb/>
which have oppressed <lb/>
people and especially do we <lb/>
denounce unnecessary and <lb/>
burdensome increase in the tax on <lb/>
cotton ties ind on tin, so largely <lb/>
used by the poorer portion of <lb/>
people. We denounce <lb/>
the iniquitous Force bill, which <lb/>
is not yet abandoned Re- <lb/>
publican party, but is being used <lb/>
as a measure to be adopted as <lb/>
soon as they gain control of the <lb/>
House of Representatives, the <lb/>
pose and effect of which measure <lb/>
will be to establish a second period <lb/>
of reconstruction in the Southern <lb/>

A tortoise with the initials and <lb/>

Wilmington Mr. Her- <lb/>
received very painful <lb/>
injuries to-day by a horse <lb/>
on which he was mounted fall upon <lb/>
him. The brute was rather a <lb/>
fiery animal and reared and fell <lb/>
over backwards, falling on one of <lb/>
Mr. legs and crushing it. <lb/>
It was thought at first that the leg <lb/>
was broken but physicians who <lb/>
were called in made a careful ex-1 <lb/>

bones wore broken, although <lb/>
bruises were pretty severe. Mr. <lb/>

escape. <lb/>
New Bern Late Friday <lb/>
night two Cicero Mason, <lb/>
a carpenter, and William Farrow <lb/>
a jockey from Tarboro, quarreled <lb/>
about a woman. Farrow knocked <lb/>
Mason down. The latter ran into <lb/>
his house, got returned <lb/>
and attacked Farrow again, shoot- <lb/>
him when very close- The ball <lb/>
entered the pit of the stomach. <lb/>
The ball went through one of <lb/>
Mason's before entering <lb/>
the body of his antagonist. Mason <lb/>
says Farrow attacked him and he <lb/>
merely defended himself. A re- <lb/>
markable and sad adjunct to the <lb/>
affair is that when Farrow was <lb/>
taken to bis home Adam Jones, <lb/>
colored, ran for a doctor, but drop- <lb/>
dead opposite Centenary M- <lb/>

the woman's possession was found <lb/>
a pocket-book with two notes, one <lb/>

It is not quite broad for <lb/>

AWAY OUT WEST. <lb/>
The Editor Still Going and feeing. <lb/>
Editorial Correspondence. <lb/>
Trinidad, Col., May 20th, 1892 <lb/>
Onward we go More than two <lb/>
thousand miles and the <lb/>
end is not yet What a vast conn- <lb/>
try is this continent of ours, and <lb/>
what a journey it takes to go from <lb/>
ocean to ocean I We people <lb/>
away down East and South speak <lb/>
about or Louis far <lb/>
out is West, but take a map of <lb/>
the United States and locate these <lb/>
cities, then scan the vast area that <lb/>
lies to the or them and you <lb/>
will they, so far as dis- <lb/>
is concerned, are scarcely <lb/>
in the West at all, in fact not more <lb/>
than one-third of the way from the <lb/>
the Pacific. <lb/>
Front standpoint these <lb/>
cities decidedly in the West, <lb/>
other sections along the way <lb/>
had made upon it, so I will return <lb/>
to these and speak of each in turn. <lb/>
My last letter was mailed at <lb/>
Evansville, a prosperous <lb/>
town of Indiana. Crossing <lb/>
the Ohio river at that place our <lb/>
party found a decided change of <lb/>
climate from what we had passed <lb/>
through during the morning, it <lb/>
being several degrees cooler- The <lb/>
country here and along the <lb/>
river, and also the small <lb/>
portion of Illinois through which <lb/>
our journey lay, was similar to that <lb/>
I wrote about in Tennessee and <lb/>
Kentucky fine grass and grain <lb/>
growing and stock raising sections. <lb/>
Several coal and iron mines in full <lb/>
operation were passed. <lb/>
St. Louis was reached about <lb/>
o'clock. The approach into this <lb/>
city is over a massive iron bridge <lb/>
that spans the Mississippi, then <lb/>
the cars pass through a tunnel <lb/>
under tho city to the union depot. <lb/>
The bridge and the tunnel are each <lb/>
a mile in length, and were built by <lb/>
a stock company at a cost of <lb/>
000,000- The is double <lb/>
tracked for trains with drive way <lb/>
and foot way overhead. It brings <lb/>
a good revenue to the company, as <lb/>
every train, vehicle and person <lb/>
passing over it pays toll. <lb/>
At St Louis a fair idea could be <lb/>
had of the terrible flood that is de- <lb/>
the low lands adjacent <lb/>
to the Mississippi and its <lb/>
Here the Mississippi is the <lb/>
dividing line between Illinois and <lb/>
Missouri. On the Illinois side is <lb/>
quite a large city known as East <lb/>
St Louis, and the work of the flood <lb/>
in this city is horrible to look upon. <lb/>
Nearly the whole town is <lb/>
ed and thousands of people are <lb/>
are driven from their homes. The <lb/>
tracks of most of the railroads <lb/>
coming into East St. Louis are <lb/>
under water, greatly the inter- <lb/>
of their traffic. The L- <lb/>
N. upon which our party was <lb/>
has a high, substantial track <lb/>
and we had no trouble getting in. <lb/>
Kansas City and a number of <lb/>
other place are suffering as much <lb/>
as St. Louis, and it is estimated <lb/>
that the damage in Illinois, Kan- <lb/>
Missouri and Iowa will reach <lb/>
millions of dollars, to say nothing <lb/>
of further down the river. In <lb/>
some places lives are lost. The <lb/>
freshet is larger than the big one <lb/>
in 1858 and is almost as large as <lb/>
the famous freshet of 1844. <lb/>
Our party left St. Louis at <lb/>
P. M- on a train of the groat Santa <lb/>
Fe route direct for the Pacific <lb/>
coast. Our first two nights travel <lb/>
was in a Pullman bound for the <lb/>
city of Mexico and we were then <lb/>
transferred to the Chicago and <lb/>
Los Angeles vestibule, one of the <lb/>
handsomest trains in the <lb/>
A pleasant addition was made to <lb/>
our party at St Louis in the per- <lb/>
son of Mr. <lb/>
accompanied by his <lb/>
wife. <lb/>
The journey through Missouri <lb/>
was no less interesting than in tho <lb/>
States behind us. All along there <lb/>
were splendid farming lands and <lb/>
stock ranges. The south-western <lb/>
portion of tho State is engaged <lb/>
largely in lead and zinc mining, tho <lb/>
country rich with these ores. <lb/>
From conversation with citizens of <lb/>
the State on the cars I learned <lb/>
that the Third Party is very weak <lb/>
in Missouri and stands no showing <lb/>
at all. <lb/>
Two stations beyond <lb/>
the Kansas line was crossed, <lb/>
but I will stop to tell how <lb/>
this town got its name. Tho early <lb/>
mine prospectors of tho immediate <lb/>
section often found themselves so <lb/>
hard up for cash that they could <lb/>
not buy supplies and some traders <lb/>
set up here who took ore in ex- <lb/>
change for goods. They would <lb/>
not sell on credit and hung up the <lb/>
sign or no The miners <lb/>
referred to it by this sign when <lb/>
they spoke of going to the tread- <lb/>
camp, and a town sprung <lb/>
up there it went right on by that <lb/>
name, <lb/>
Kansas, like the previous State, <lb/>
great grain and stock country, <lb/>
only on a larger scale- It raises <lb/>
more corn, more wheat and stock. <lb/>
Grain elevators common sights <lb/>
at the stations, and immense herds <lb/>
of cattle and horses are all <lb/>
along- After passing the famous <lb/>
flint beautiful grazing region, <lb/>
we pan a broad expanse of flat <lb/>
stretching out hundreds <lb/>
and miles each side of <lb/>
the Arkansas small, shallow <lb/>
stream this far This prairie <lb/>
country extends unbroken, except <lb/>
by towns and cities that <lb/>
have sprung up to a short distance <lb/>
beyond tho Colorado line This <lb/>
is the section marked out by a spot <lb/>
in early boyhood geography <lb/>
maps and Great <lb/>
fallen a victim to the scheming and <lb/>
of the modern <lb/>
Throe years ago it had <lb/>
what was thought then to be a sub- <lb/>
boom, and it <lb/>
over miles of space- Land <lb/>
speculators run the street car lines <lb/>
as fur out as five miles in the <lb/>
try, and was given a <lb/>
value almost equal to New <lb/>
York city, parcels selling as high <lb/>
as per front foot- But these <lb/>
things could not stand, and groups <lb/>
of buildings scattered two or three <lb/>
miles from the body of the city <lb/>
mark the scene of operation by the <lb/>
land companies- The result of the <lb/>
explosion of the boom is that there <lb/>
are now hundreds of vacant houses <lb/>
in the city. Residents claim that <lb/>
Wichita has a population of <lb/>
but outsiders say half that <lb/>
number will embrace every soul of <lb/>
them. Even at that it is a big <lb/>
town. <lb/>
The other Kansas town that our <lb/>
party cut a memory on is <lb/>
It is only a small town <lb/>
reached at C P- M- at which place <lb/>
the St. Louis and Chicago trains <lb/>
came together and the passengers <lb/>
in through cars are hooked on the <lb/>
latter. Here the pleasant <lb/>
was had that the Chicago <lb/>
train was delayed house by the <lb/>
freshets, and that our car must <lb/>
side track wait for it. With so <lb/>
much time to wait we men folks <lb/>
concluded to take in the town and <lb/>
make some purchases. While thus <lb/>
engaged a train from towards <lb/>
Chicago dashed by us to the depot- <lb/>
Thinking this might be our train <lb/>
quick steps were made in that <lb/>
Before reaching there <lb/>
tho train pulled out- Thoughts of <lb/>
getting left seemed to loosen the <lb/>
springs in our legs, and seeing our <lb/>
only hope now lay in making our <lb/>
side tracked car before the train <lb/>
could switch off and get it, the trio <lb/>
of us broke into a dead run- This <lb/>
writers splinter shanks gave him a <lb/>
full length lead in the race, Bro. <lb/>
London's duck legs fairly beat a <lb/>
drum roll as he tho <lb/>
as second, while Manning with <lb/>
brought <lb/>
a good rear. That was tho <lb/>
picture we all made, flying like a <lb/>
Kansas cyclone our overcoat tails <lb/>
spread out behind as level as the <lb/>
prairie. Just at the of re- <lb/>
that were <lb/>
and would make the car, <lb/>
the moving train shot by the <lb/>
switch without even a halt. Then <lb/>
it flashed across our minds that <lb/>
may be it was not our train, <lb/>
all, and we realized that the joke <lb/>
was on us as those who stood <lb/>
laughing around the depot told us <lb/>
that train was the Deliver high <lb/>
Well joined in the <lb/>
laugh and had three more solid <lb/>
hours to wait there and it <lb/>

There pan be no doubt that the <lb/>
sooner the House can pass all of <lb/>
the necessary appropriation bills <lb/>
and demonstrate to the country <lb/>
that it is ready for an adjournment, <lb/>
the better it will be for the <lb/>
party. <lb/>
The refusal of Secretary Rusk <lb/>
to ask Congress for an <lb/>
to be spent by the alleged <lb/>
rain-maker, he-1 no <lb/>
affect upon that cheeky and slick- <lb/>
tongued individual. He Las talked <lb/>
with such good purpose to the <lb/>
Senate committee on Agriculture <lb/>
that Senator Pettigrew an <lb/>
amendment to the Agricultural <lb/>
bill appropriating for <lb/>
making experiments. That i just <lb/>
more, than <lb/>
asked for, and he is correspond- <lb/>
happy; but his jubilation will <lb/>
be short, as the House will not <lb/>
allow this money to be thus thrown <lb/>
down a rat-hole, so to speak, what- <lb/>
ever the Senate may do- <lb/>
is again after <lb/>

time that has publicly <lb/>

to make an examination and report <lb/>
in relation to currency and coinage <lb/>

July. 1890, on the price of silver <lb/>

WASHINGTON LETTER. <lb/>
From our Regular Correspondent. <lb/>
Washington, D. C, May <lb/>
Presidential politics were lugged <lb/>
into the House this week by the <lb/>
Harrison and <lb/>
Representative Henderson, <lb/>
of made a bunkum speech <lb/>
Mr. Harrison for not <lb/>
having given tho <lb/>
on the board of managers <lb/>
of the World's Fair, which was <lb/>
replied to by Representative John <lb/>
son, of Indiana, who is known to <lb/>
be very close to Mr. Harrison. <lb/>
Mr. Johnson created some excite- <lb/>
by letting the cat out of the <lb/>
bag concerning the infamous Force <lb/>
bill, which Mr. Harrison <lb/>
intent upon having enacted into a <lb/>
law, if his party can secure control <lb/>
of the House and elect the President <lb/>
again. Mr. Johnson indulged in <lb/>
the stock abuse of democrats in the <lb/>
South for their treatment the <lb/>
which Mr. Harrison <lb/>
hopes will have a good <lb/>
effect upon the delegates to <lb/>
Democrats were de- <lb/>
lighted at this open avowal of a <lb/>
close and confidential friend of <lb/>
Mr. Harrison's that the bill <lb/>
is not dead, but only <lb/>
will be worth thousands of votes <lb/>
to democratic candidates for the <lb/>
House, as well as to the electoral <lb/>
ticket. <lb/>
Since the arrival of Commander <lb/>
in Chief John C. New, early this <lb/>
week, the Harrison army has <lb/>
dropped its meek, by-leave <lb/>
Blame air, and from this time on <lb/>
it will fight for Mr. Harrison's <lb/>
nomination. Tho also, under <lb/>
command pt Boas have <lb/>
their fighting blood up, and <lb/>
wounds left by the battle royal <lb/>
that is to be fought at Minneapolis <lb/>
will make it all the easier to elect <lb/>
the ticket nominated at Chicago. <lb/>
Mr- Cleveland's friends are anxious <lb/>
for tho republicans to nominate <lb/>
Blaine, as they believe his <lb/>
nation will remove all doubt as to <lb/>
nomination of Mr- Cleveland <lb/>
at Chicago, and are confident <lb/>
that he could beat worse <lb/>
than he did in 1884. <lb/>
The action of Die democratic <lb/>
caucus in deciding to push the <lb/>
regular appropriation bibs, in the <lb/>
House, ahead of everything else, <lb/>
and to secure an adjournment at <lb/>
the earliest possible date, was <lb/>
disappointing to many members <lb/>
interested in legislation which . <lb/>

H IN; N. C, May 1887. <lb/>
Has. Madam, <lb/>
Most gladly do I give yon my name to <lb/>
the public, bearing <lb/>
of the miraculous cure effected on me <lb/>
by your most valuable Remedy. Fifteen <lb/>
years ago I was troubled by what seemed <lb/>
to be little scales appearing on the right <lb/>
cheek, under the eye, resembling dry <lb/>
meal bran, which I could remove when I <lb/>
shaved, but they would return again in <lb/>
short time. Soon an enlargement <lb/>
under the same eye. attended with <lb/>
itching and burning sensations, and sharp, <lb/>
darting pains from the affected place to <lb/>
the eye, causing great difficulty closing <lb/>
the eye, even to sleep. Sometimes it <lb/>
would feel but never at any time <lb/>
disappear. Some physicians <lb/>
t eczema, others chronic and <lb/>
all advised me to let it alone. This I did <lb/>
until two years ago, when a little scab <lb/>
began to form right under the eye, re- <lb/>
a wart, which could not re- <lb/>
move; in size and appearance it soon <lb/>
grew to be as large as a strawberry, <lb/>
the scabs came off and left the place en- <lb/>
raw. Having fear of a cancer, I <lb/>
began to various kinds of salves to <lb/>
heal it up, b never could. I consulted <lb/>
with physicians of great experience; <lb/>
they said it looked suspicious of it, and <lb/>
advised me to have It cut or burnt out at <lb/>
once. I did not wish to do either; and <lb/>
being persuaded it was in my blood, I <lb/>
resolved to try your Remedy, as it <lb/>
been recommended to I did so with <lb/>
the most happy results. I can say I am <lb/>
a well man. I cannot say too much for <lb/>
your Remedy i it Is worth Its weight In <lb/>
gold. Before I had used one bottle I was <lb/>
hopeful, and at the expiration of five <lb/>
weeks the sore was entirely healed, the <lb/>
scales or roughness of the skin all gone, <lb/>
and left a new man. I give any <lb/>
similarly affected airy further <lb/>
they may desire, can only say, <lb/>
if the public will give your Remedy a <lb/>

These hues, crudely written and <lb/>
with words misspelled, arc the sequel <lb/>
to a drama from real life which <lb/>
fell under my immediate observation, <lb/>
and with this preface I will relate it <lb/>
Several months ago there was a <lb/>
curious of moonshiners confined <lb/>
in the Atlanta jail. Herring out a sen- <lb/>
In my daily visits to the jail <lb/>
I used to spend a great of time <lb/>
watching them. They were not or- <lb/>
moonshiners, in actions at <lb/>
least. The other moonshiners refer- <lb/>
red to them <lb/>
and his and that's who I found <lb/>
them to be later on. <lb/>
This odd couple did not mingle <lb/>
with the crowd of prisoners who <lb/>
were continually gossiping away the <lb/>
hours. They always sat apart, talk- <lb/>
together and apparently enjoy- <lb/>
each other's companionship <lb/>
greatly. The elder of the two men <lb/>
was a heavy fellow of about fifty <lb/>
typical mountaineer, with <lb/>
flowing red beard and hair of a dark- <lb/>
Tho other was some thirty <lb/>
years his junior, but he had the same <lb/>
features and the same build. Tho <lb/>
only difference between them was <lb/>
that one was younger and his face <lb/>
was free from the heavy beard which <lb/>
covered the face of the other. <lb/>
Day by day this strange- <lb/>
assorted pair with interest. One <lb/>
day the older one, who had noticed <lb/>
me watching them, beckoned mo to <lb/>
come over to where the two were <lb/>
sitting alone. I went over. <lb/>

his eye. <lb/>
I replied. <lb/>
said he, tho twinkle be- <lb/>
coming pronounced and com- <lb/>

I saw the hoy. he continued, <lb/>

He brought his open palm <lb/>
down on his big fat leg to give em- <lb/>
to the assertion. <lb/>
shuffled about uneasily, his <lb/>
face was red as a beet, and he seemed <lb/>
to lie hunting a place to repose his <lb/>
big, awkward hands. He uttered no <lb/>
protest to his father's statement. <lb/>
his father went on, speak- <lb/>

earliest boyhood he hail trained his <lb/>
only son. to lead a moonshiner's <lb/>
life. was an apt pupil, and, as <lb/>
the senior Mr. expressed <lb/>
it, with pride, as spry as a <lb/>
cricket the The only <lb/>
trouble with was his bashful- <lb/>
He had a reputation for bash- <lb/>
all over the section whore he <lb/>
lived. Ho was called <lb/>
among his intimate f As <lb/>
grew into manhood this, failing be- <lb/>
came more pronounced, but it did <lb/>
not interfere with his work. <lb/>
In the distillery business Mr. <lb/>
had a partner who shared in <lb/>
the expenses, the labors and the <lb/>
profits of the establishment. This <lb/>
partner was Ruff and he <lb/>
with his two stalwart sons aided <lb/>
and Mr. in the <lb/>
management of tho distillery. <lb/>
Their distillery was located in <lb/>
a picturesque ravine, which would <lb/>
have delighted an artist. In this <lb/>
beautiful and secluded spot no rev- <lb/>
officer ever set foot, and for <lb/>
years the and <lb/>
made mountain dew without ever <lb/>
being discovered. They stored away <lb/>
the results of their labors and smiled <lb/>
in cool defiance at the internal rev- <lb/>
laws. <lb/>
Now they might have gone on for <lb/>
a quarter of a century in this way, <lb/>
and their coffers might have swelled <lb/>
with richness, but for one thing that <lb/>
came to pass. And but for that <lb/>
thing this would never have <lb/>
been written.- <lb/>
Peggie was the prettiest <lb/>
girl in all the vicinity of Hawkins <lb/>
Fork. She was a healthy, well de <lb/>
rosy cheeked mountain girl, <lb/>
ample in life and simple in <lb/>
to played end havoc with the hearts <lb/>
of the mountain youths who came to <lb/>
know her. In her simple homespun <lb/>
frock, with her wealth of golden <lb/>
locks caught lightly together by a <lb/>
ribbon, and allowed to fall in <lb/>
ant masses over her shapely <lb/>
she made a pretty picture to <lb/>
look upon. <lb/>
It was a long way up the ravine <lb/>
from where the lived to the <lb/>
and every day Peggie <lb/>
would carry the noonday meal to her <lb/>
and brothers at their work. <lb/>
would glances at <lb/>
but ho never to speak to <lb/>
her i ii re than saying, <lb/>
The heart of a youth like <lb/>
is very susceptible <lb/>
to feminine charms, and it was only <lb/>
in the natural coarse of things that <lb/>
the youth should completely <lb/>
lose his heart to the fair Peggie. <lb/>
When love for Peggie began <lb/>
ho never It <lb/>
on ho said, and he awoke to <lb/>
the consciousness that he was in love <lb/>
one fine morning. How many <lb/>
times did be plan to speck to <lb/>
her. how many hundred times <lb/>
did his fail bar match <lb/>
But love <lb/>
made him bold. the dis- <lb/>
while was waiting for <lb/>
her father to finish <lb/>
their Hi ventured up to <lb/>
Peggie in a trembling <lb/>

she ex- <lb/>
claimed, and was frightened out <lb/>
of his wits. To add to confusion, <lb/>
caught sight of him <lb/>
and bawled <lb/>

Covered with confusion rushed <lb/>
to his work, and for three whole <lb/>
weeks would not oven look at <lb/>
Peggie on her visits to the <lb/>
But all the time his was grow- <lb/>
warmer, and day he grew <lb/>
bold again, when all eyes were turned <lb/>
away. <lb/>
he-said, in a pleading <lb/>
tone, walk down the <lb/>
ravine with <lb/>
She blushed prettily and laughed <lb/>
moderately. <lb/>

He was doubtful what was meant <lb/>
by that, and he debated mentally for <lb/>
a moment whether it was wise to go <lb/>
with a young lady after having re- <lb/>
such a as that, but <lb/>
he determined to go. <lb/>
Ho walked along beside Peggie for <lb/>
quite a distance in silence. He want- <lb/>
ed to say something. The words <lb/>
choked in his mouth. <lb/>
ho said finally, getting <lb/>
his breath very rapidly, I <lb/>
told you you as pinks I <lb/>
meant <lb/>
Mr. she exclaimed, in <lb/>
a shocked tone, and then she burst <lb/>
out laughing. <lb/>
stopped stock still in tho path- <lb/>
way before her. There was a hurt <lb/>
look on his face, and he fumbled <lb/>
nervously with his hands. <lb/>
here, he said <lb/>
laugh at a <lb/>
like I meant <lb/>
you know what I <lb/>
He stammered hopelessly; <lb/>
laughed more and more. <lb/>
continued solemnly, <lb/>
and placing his big hands across his <lb/>
stomach, am all broke up in here <lb/>
about you. I can't sleep fer thinking <lb/>
of you. Peg- <lb/>
will you <lb/>
He broke off in a most appealing <lb/>
tone and Peggie stopped laughing. <lb/>
she said seriously, <lb/>
you <lb/>
looked crestfallen indeed. <lb/>
mean it, he said <lb/>
want you marry <lb/>
me. you have <lb/>
Peggie ejaculated. She <lb/>
seemed to be deeply interested in <lb/>
fastening a knot she had tied in the <lb/>
strings of her bonnet. She did not <lb/>
reply. <lb/>
pleaded <lb/>
She looked up quickly at the love- <lb/>
sick youth. <lb/>
you mean it shore she <lb/>
asked. <lb/>
God I affirmed <lb/>
said Peggie. <lb/>
What anxious young suitors do <lb/>
when accepted of the maidens they <lb/>
love is a matter irrelevant to this <lb/>
story. But for a long time after <lb/>
had been accepted he stood <lb/>
gazing at Peggie without saying r. <lb/>
word. <lb/>
finally asked, you <lb/>
he said, ain't sorry. I <lb/>
This mental process seemed to be <lb/>
very agonizing to the young suitor. <lb/>
As he continued to think his manner <lb/>
grew very disturbed. He fumbled <lb/>
with hands; his mouth twitched. <lb/>
Thinking seemed to a painful <lb/>
operation to him. <lb/>
said he, after a long <lb/>
pause, they <lb/>
Peggie thought for a moment. <lb/>
they'll kid she said. <lb/>
This confirmed the terrible <lb/>
which had been flitting through <lb/>
mind during the few moments <lb/>
that he had enjoyed tho distraction <lb/>
of being the accepted lover of Peggie <lb/>
the guy he said <lb/>
mournfully. <lb/>
said Peggie, <lb/>
thought again for a long <lb/>
while. <lb/>
he said, tell you <lb/>
we'll <lb/>
Peggie was horrified. <lb/>
run she asked. <lb/>

continued, git married, <lb/>

likes to do things that smack <lb/>
of romance, and mountain beauty <lb/>
was no exception. She finally yield- <lb/>
ed to plans tor an elopement. <lb/>
On the following Sunday afternoon <lb/>
they would Together they <lb/>
would go over into Gilmore county <lb/>
and get manned among people where <lb/>
there was no danger of being teased. <lb/>
There was no reason on earth why <lb/>
and Peggie <lb/>
should run away to get married. <lb/>
Their parents looked upon their <lb/>
union with favor. They regarded it <lb/>
as probable, although they had never <lb/>
even observed the evidences of <lb/>
courtship. They would have accept- <lb/>
ed the announcement of their mar- .,,.,. ,.,,. , , ,. <lb/>

Tho reception -was a little more <lb/>
than He had bargained or hoped <lb/>
for, and he secretly wished that <lb/>
had instructed Tom not to have any <lb/>
one around. Ho and Peggie sat down <lb/>
in tho corner together, and all eyes <lb/>
were upon them, and all <lb/>
directed to them. The minister <lb/>
had to talk to them, and everybody <lb/>

Confused, crestfallen, miserable, <lb/>
agonized, pushed aside tho <lb/>
crowd. <lb/>

one bound he reached the door. <lb/>
Once outside, his one idea was to <lb/>
get away. Ho never thought of re- <lb/>
to tortured by that crowd. <lb/>
Ho found his way to the big, open <lb/>
road and fortunately struck out in <lb/>
the direction of his home. <lb/>
He hit the road in a trot, and once <lb/>
in it, he increased his speed amazing- <lb/>
Down the road with streaming <lb/>
coat tails and open mouth this groom <lb/>
flew like the wind. Down hills, up <lb/>
hills, over level through for- <lb/>
over branches, this discomfited <lb/>
and dismayed husband dashed at a <lb/>
clipping pace. He never stopped to <lb/>
think; tho idea predominant in bis <lb/>
mind was to get away. <lb/>
How far he would have run if he <lb/>
had not been stopped will never lie <lb/>
known. For five miles he flew <lb/>
mad over the mountains, when, be- <lb/>
fore he knew, ho rushed into tho <lb/>
arms of three men. <lb/>
they yelled, and fell, <lb/>
panting, at their feet.<lb/>

Charles VI, king of and the <lb/>
Indies, had a brother named Don <lb/>
Antonio, who excelled as an amateur <lb/>
sausage maker, and after awhile <lb/>
nothing would please the king bat <lb/>
that he. too, should be initiated into <lb/>
the secrete of the wonderful art. He <lb/>
hoped ultimately, be said, to produce <lb/>
which should rival, nay, <lb/>
I even excel, his brother's. Accord- <lb/>
a pavilion was built in a <lb/>
part of whither, <lb/>
; liberally supplied with choppers, <lb/>
pigs and the necessary spices, the <lb/>
monarch retired from public view <lb/>
and, dressed in a butcher's white <lb/>
, blouse and apron, went through a <lb/>
severe course of training. <lb/>
At last he was ready for a test, and <lb/>
. a piece of sausage tasted by <lb/>
Don Antonio, was declared worthy <lb/>
of making. became <lb/>
. fashionable at court, bat Charles, in- <lb/>
that he had not yet acquired <lb/>
his brother's delicacy and finish, <lb/>
tinned his labors toward the <lb/>
of his culinary skill. One day <lb/>
the king, at table, began to find fault <lb/>
with his sausages. <lb/>
Naturally the courtiers all de- <lb/>
at this and declared that he <lb/>
was mistaken, but a young duke who <lb/>
had just come up from the country, <lb/>
and did not know how matters stood, <lb/>
thought he saw an open road to fa- <lb/>

beg my pardon of the <lb/>

self on his knees. Charles good <lb/>
passed over the offense <lb/>
and made the culprit of his per- <lb/>
attendants. <lb/>
This whim degenerated into sheer <lb/>
monomania; matters of tho <lb/>
est importance were neglected; tho <lb/>
king could not be got away from his <lb/>
self inflicted labors; sausage <lb/>
became tho solo interest of his <lb/>
existence. In the end, however, he <lb/>
was undeceived by a fortunate <lb/>

embraced her, forgetting that his <lb/>

and dirty. <lb/>
Of coarse the lady's dress was <lb/>
spoiled, but Charles had recognized <lb/>
how utterly absurd he must seem to <lb/>
other people, and his eyes being thus <lb/>
opened he at once desisted from his <lb/>
degrading occupation. Nevertheless, <lb/>

How Hunt <lb/>
Should tho hunter wish for tho <lb/>
rattlesnake, he seeks him where tho <lb/>
cultivation ends and tho forest be- <lb/>
gins, for on the border, like a skill- <lb/>
freebooter, the cautious <lb/>
lies in wait for the rats and mice <lb/>
that gathered thither to feed <lb/>
on the produce. With his <lb/>
long stick the snake hunter presses <lb/>
aside the shading bushes to see if tho <lb/>
Bleeping reptile lies coded beneath. <lb/>
He examines every nook by the <lb/>
fallen tree, every recess of the copse <lb/>
covered hillside, and oftenest, <lb/>
where the ferns wave from the <lb/>
and screen him from view in <lb/>
the deceiving light of their fluttering <lb/>
shadows, will ho find tho rattler <lb/>
his midday siesta. <lb/>
Yes, there he is, lying close in an <lb/>
angle of the lichen grown rock. <lb/>
You can see him through the leafy <lb/>
curtain. I'll press back the ferns <lb/>
with my stick and leave him clear of <lb/>
the shade. See how be lies, so beau- <lb/>
mottled with variations of <lb/>
black and brown and gray, with here <lb/>
and there a tinge of yellow. <lb/>
Although he is not colored like the <lb/>
rock, nor yet tho dried leaves or <lb/>
withered sticks, still he harmonizes <lb/>
with indistinct mass of blend- <lb/>
tints, arranged in nature's beau- <lb/>
way, in a certain irregularity, <lb/>
causing the eye to lose him, as it <lb/>
were, in the sameness of his <lb/>
Stoop gently over <lb/>
He will not fly at you. Is he asleep <lb/>
Who can tell Yet his eyes are wide <lb/>
glassy balls of gray, <lb/>
with a pupil like the cat's. <lb/>
They never close, even when he <lb/>
sleeps. He is ever thus wide eyed, <lb/>
gazing alike on the mysteries of day <lb/>
and night <lb/>
I touch him gently. The quiet coil <lb/>
begins to move within itself. He <lb/>
draws back his head slightly. The <lb/>
tail, with its warning rattle, starts <lb/>
up vertically from the center of con- <lb/>
and the signal of alarm is <lb/>
given. It vibrates so rapidly that <lb/>
the eye cannot follow the move- <lb/>
Tis a blur upon the sight <lb/>
To the ear it is like the rustling of <lb/>
withered leaves, with some <lb/>
to the whirring song of the <lb/>
cicada. I touch him gently again <lb/>
that the head may be thrust forward <lb/>
clear of the coils. Aha I There it <lb/>
comes. I press with the bent stick <lb/>
on his neck gently bat firmly to the <lb/>
ground. Then stooping, steadying <lb/>
the stick with my knee, I take him <lb/>
with my hand round the neck, close <lb/>
behind the jaws. In this way be <lb/>
