My heart beat quick- Just coming into sight Was she as last I'd seen her. Dressed out out white. She bore a plain, smooth, sad air.

C, Keeley Institute, since he took the treat met t the first of the year, occasionally strikes his home town. On such occasions he is apt to drop into the Southerner office, partly from force of habit being an old Faber-propeller and to gather the political and home news. Monday morning, after the re- porter had answered all Mr. Bat- questions, he took a hand at the rotation end himself and asked him about other alleged cures for the liquor and opium habits. do you think of them Mr. Battle was asked. To this he replied. and from of other men, who have been cured by it, I, of course, know the absolute and thorough efficiency of the Keeley treatment Of other alleged cures I know nothing. My heart, though, says if they will cure the terrible malady, prosper them. If not, they are frauds of far-reaching you haven't answered my question fully, Mr. the reporter persisted. He laughed and answered am somewhat like Zeb Vance in his reply to regard- his stand on the prohibition question. His heart was with it but his stomach was against it. I have told you how my heart stood. My judgment is more critical. Let's analyze. The world was nearly nineteen old before an efficacious and harmless remedy was found for the curse of alcoholic opium addiction that had touched the world but to blight and destroy, years of investigation, that grandest of human tors, Dr. Leslie E Keeley, a safe and sure relief. For some time before, he had been effecting cures, but in April, 1880, he opened bis Institute at D wight, , to which the afflicted flocked from all parts of the country and left redeemed from their cures were the marvels of the age and attracted the most relentless, hostile criticism of the profession. The cures have con- for over years, until the mark has been about reached, disarming the critic by the infallible test of time. With- out solicitation, or hawking, on the part of the Leslie E. Keeley Co., levelheaded, cool, business men, for thousands of dollars, each, bought State rights to ad- minister the remedies and Keeley institutes under the authorization of the parent com- at Dwight.

The efficacy of vaccination itself has not been more thoroughly established. course Dr. Keeley and his company reaped the fruits of the grand discovery in a most em- financial way. let us go back a little. During all these centuries of fraudulent remedies, sprang up like mushrooms, were widely advertised, and, like all false things, claimed victims and then died from the ken of men. profitable success will have its counterfeits. It doesn't pay to attempt to simulate the false and unprofitable. And so it is with the Keeley cure. There have been by actual count so called cures palmed off on the public. Many have gone down ; none longer than to defraud innocent victims and for a short while. It see to be only a question of a short time with any of them. there are several of these alleged in North Car- to-day. Now, to answer your question, Mr- by asking another. Isn't it a little singular, that, considering the best equipped chemists in the country have expressed their in- ability to certainly analyze Dr. Keeley's remedies, obscure men should be able to reproduce them a most wonderful coin- that these people should also discover that the fluids be of tho came color as Dr. should be administered in the same quantities, at the same time and in the same way Dr. Keeley has ed the world that alcohol and opium, taken to excess and con- form a distinct disease and that he has found the for it, which goes under the name, Keeley's Double Chloride of Gold you, if money were not on the reputation of Dr. Keeley's remedies, they would call their liquids or Gold your knowledge, Mr. Reporter, to other shrewdly con- but exposed, attempted imitations, will not conclude that these counterfeits differ not a whit from all others many of them have guaranteed a cure before they have ever had a patient. In the name of the prophet who will guarantee the guarantor The reporter added Battle, don't these cure, as you call them, claim to stopped men from believe they do, but any doc- tor can do that.

The mob continued to increase until it numbered several thousand. About night they made attack on the jail which was met by a volley from the military killing twelve of the mob and wounding twenty odd more. The mob fell back when tired upon and while interest for the time being was drawn from the to the dead and wounded on the street slipped him out of the jail and took him away. The killing and wounding of some of the mob threw tho city into still greater indignation this time arising against the mayor and officers and military, and it was with difficulty that further bloodshed was prevented- Next day the officers started to slip the back into the jail but the mob had men on lookout for this who discovered the movements of the officers, them and took the from their custody.

If they were not expected to use force if necessary to keep back the mob then it looks like utter folly to have called them out at all.

Finally they have i in getting enough Demo- to return to Washington for a day or two to transact a little business When men are elected as Representatives it is their duty to go to Washington and remain there and to be in their places at all times. They are well paid for this, and are not expected to neg- their work, but there is an increasing tendency on the part of Representatives to draw their salaries and do as little as remaining at home whenever feel inclined. It was owing to the firm action of Speaker Crisp rather than to the House that WASHINGTON LETTER. our Regular D. C, Sept, The humiliation of Tom Reed and his lieutenant, Burrows, of Michigan, when they learned that the Democrats of House pro- posed to put an effectual quietus upon Republican against the reporting of the Tuck bill for the repeal of all laws authorizing the presence of U. S- officials at elections, was a pleas- sight to Democratic eyes. Because the Democrats of the House in the adoption of regular rules had been extremely lenient towards the minority the assumed that no check would be put on their They were given a free rope for awhile because there was not a quorum of Democrats present, but as soon as a quorum was on hand they were effectually ed by an Older reported from the committee Rules and the bill was reported to the House. This order was not the result of any assumption of power by a single individual, as were the rulings of Tom Reed he was Speaker; it was authorized by a Democratic caucus, as such things always be. The Republicans are to be allowed to name any reasonable length of time during which the debate on this bill shall be carried on, but they are not to be allowed to against a vote upon it after legitimate has been exhausted- The public tariff hearings were concluded this week, and the Democrats on the House Ways and Means committee are now at work upon new bill- Although the number of days were fewer than were given by some of the other committees, more time was given by the committee than was ever given before for public hear- Chairman Wilson, speak of the preparation of the new- tariff bill, Democratic members will work together. Some of the schedules will be prepared by all of the Democrats together, while others will be re- to subcommittees for prep- previous to being revised by tho full Democratic member- ship of the committee. It is not possible to say when the bill will be completed, but it will require more time than some of those who have never, had a tariff bill to prepare seem to think We might fix up a measure in very short order, but it is not that kind of a bill we want to present to tho country. affecting so many interests must very carefully considered arid its effect calculated before we can nope to perfect, a bill which can stand the many tests to which it be subjected when enacted into a law. Such a measure as this cannot be successfully shall, however, lose no time, and hope to present it to the House at the earliest possible moment consistent with the interests Claus the sugar king, was in Washington a few days ago for the purpose of his fingers in the Hawaiian pie, but he cut short his stay when he learned that the whole matter was already settled so far as the administration is concerned, and that President Cleveland is only waiting for the Senate to dispose of the bill before he sends it a special message on Hawaii, by Mr. reports. the election bill Oar readers today, and was reported and placed ally those interested in the j upon the calendar.

Southerner April Battle, Esq., who has represented the Greensboro, N. C, Keeley Institute, since he took the treat me; t first of the year, occasionally strikes his home town. On such occasions he is apt to drop into Southerner office, from of habit being an old Faber-propeller and to the political and home news. Monday morning, after the re- porter had answered all Mr. Bat- questions, he took a hand at the end himself and asked him about other alleged cures for the liquor and opium habits. do you think of them Mr. Battle was asked. To this he replied. and from of other men, who have been cured by it, I, of coarse, know the absolute and thorough efficiency of the Keeley treatment- Of other alleged cares I know nothing. My heart, though, says if they will cure the terrible malady, prosper them. If not, they are frauds of far-reaching you haven't answered my question fully, Mr. the reporter persisted. He laughed and answered am somewhat like Zeb Vance in his reply to regard- his stand on the prohibition His heart was with it but his stomach was against it. I have told you how my heart stood. My judgment is more critical- Let's analyze. The world was nearly nineteen old before an efficacious and harmless remedy was found for the curse of alcoholic and opium addiction that had touched the world but to blight and destroy, years of investigation, that grandest of human tors, Dr. Leslie E Keeley, a safe and sure relief- For some time before, he had been effecting cures, but in April, 1880, he opened his Institute at D wight, , to which the afflicted flocked from all parts of the country and left redeemed from their cures were the marvels of the age and attracted the most relentless, hostile criticism of the profession. The cures have con- for over twelve years, until the mark has been about reached, disarming the critic by the infallible test of time- With- out solicitation, or hawking, on the part of the Leslie E. Keeley Co., levelheaded, cool, business men, for thousands of dollars, each, bought State rights to ad- minister the remedies and Keeley institutes under the ; authorization of the parent com- at Dwight.

The efficacy of vaccination itself has not been more thoroughly established. course Dr. Keeley and his company reaped the fruits of the grand discovery in a most em- financial way. let us go back a little. During all these centuries of fraudulent remedies, sprang up like mushrooms, were widely advertised, and, like all false things, claimed victims and then died from the ken of men. profitable success will have its counterfeits. It doesn't pay to attempt to simulate the false and unprofitable. And so it is with the Keeley cure. There have been by actual count so called cures palmed off on the public. Many have gone down ; none longer than to defraud innocent victims and for a short while- It seems to be only a question of a short time with any of them. there are several these alleged in North Car- to-day. Now, to answer Mr- by asking another- Isn't it a little singular, that, considering the best equipped chemists in the country have expressed their in- ability to certainly analyze Dr. Keeley s remedies, obscure men should be able to reproduce them T a most wonderful coin- that these people should also discover that the fluids should be of the color as Dr. should be administered in the same quantities, at the same time and in the same way Dr. Keeley has ed the world that alcohol and opium, taken to excess and con- form a distinct disease and that he has found the for it, which goes under the name, Keeley's Double Chloride of Gold think you, if these money seekers were not trading on the reputation of Dr. Keeley's would call their liquids or Gold your knowledge, Mr. Reporter, to other shrewdly con- but exposed, attempted in ions, will not conclude that these counterfeits differ not a whit from all others I many of them have guaranteed a cure before they have ever had a patient. In the name of the prophet who will guarantee the guarantor The reporter added Battle, don't these alleged cure, as you call them, claim to stopped men from believe they do, but any doc- tor can do that- Often a man can sober up himself. But it takes time to prove a cure, and Dr. he an unbroken record of over twelve years.

As news of the brutal crime spread through the city ex- and indignation against the aroused. reach ed such a tension as evening drew on that threats of lynching were loud and frequent. In order to protect the from the mob, the mayor with a guard went into the jail and the military of the city was ordered out and placed around the prison. The mob continued to increase until it numbered several thousand. About night they made an attack on the jail which was met by a volley from the military twelve of the mob and wounding twenty odd more. The mob fell back when tired upon and while interest for the time being was drawn from the to the dead and wounded on the street slipped him out of the and took him away. The killing and wounding of some of the mob throw tho city into greater indignation time arising against the mayor and officers and tho military, and it was with difficulty that further bloodshed was pi Next day the officers started to slip the back into the jail but the mob men lookout for this who discovered the movements of the officers, them and took the from their The was swung to the nearest limb and his body riddled with bullets. They then cut body down and started to bury it in the yard of the mayor, but to persuasion to desist from this. The frenzied then dragged the dead to the outskirts of the city, made a pile of dry lumber and shavings upon which the body was placed, covered ail but the head with of inflammable material, saturated the whole with oil, sat it on tire and filled the air with wild shouts us the pile went up in smoke and ashes. This horrible vengeance did not seem to satisfy the infuriated mob and threats went out against the mayor and military until they had to flee for safety. At last ac counts all had become quiet- The whole affair is most able- The deserved severe punishment for his brutal crime, but the people should have allow- ed the law to take its own course and not resorted to such violence, which led to sacrificing the lives of so many citizens.

They were called out by the authorities to deter a riotous mob from com- a gross outrage against the laws of their State, and when these sixty armed militia saw more than a thousand wild, men rushing madly upon them, it looks like they mutt either repel them or be trampled down before the surging mob. If they were not expected to use force if necessary to keep back the mob then it looks like utter folly to have called them out at all. True they may have firing longer than they should, but if the people in this instance had been preservers instead of violators of the law there would been none of this dreadful bloodshed.

The House of Representatives at last mustered a quorum of Democrats. For several days they were trying to report the election bill, but the Republicans could prevent it by breaking a quorum. Finally they have in getting enough Demo- to return to Washington for a day or two to transact a little business. When men are elected as Representatives it is their duty to go to Washington and remain there and to in their places at all times. They are well paid for this, and are not expected to neg- their work, but there is an easing tendency on the part of Representatives to draw their salaries and do as little as remaining at home whenever they feel inclined. It was to the firm action of Speaker Crisp rather than to tho House that the election bill was finally reported and placed upon the calendar. Messrs. Reed and Burrows were on band and thought could thews the WASHINGTON LETTER. our Regular Washington, D.

This order was not the result of any assumption of power by a single individual, as were the rulings of Tom Reed when he was Speaker ; it was authorized by a Democratic caucus, as such things always be- The Republicans are to be allowed to name any reasonable length of time during which the debate on this bill shall be carried on, but they are not to be allowed to against a vote upon it after legitimate debate has been exhausted. The public tariff hearings were concluded this week, and the Democrats on the House Ways Means committee are now at work upon the new bill. Although the number of days were fewer than were given by some of the other committees, more time was given by the committee than was ever given before for public hear- Chairman Wilson, speak of the preparation of the new tariff bill, said Democratic members will work together.

Such a measure as this cannot be successfully We shall, however, lose no time, and hope to present it to the House at the earliest possible moment consistent with the interests Claus the sugar king, was in Washington a few days ago for the purpose of his fingers in the Hawaiian pie, but he cut short his stay when he learned that the whole matter was already settled so far as the administration is concerned, and that President Cleveland is only waiting for tho Senate to dispose of the bill before he sends it a special message on Hawaii, by Mr. reports.

DEATH OP MISS The death of this young lady which occurred on the afternoon of the 20th at the home of her father, Dr. Richard mis, was a shock to the entire com- and caused sadness to many hearts. She had been sick only u week and no one thought her sicklies very serious until the evening before her death. Miss Estelle was years old and the community had not a more charming and lovable young lady than She. Death at all times is so mysterious. While we know that to meet it is to be the common lot of all mankind, still we are never fully prepared for the that some friend or loved one has over the When the Reaper comes and robs some home of the tender infant or prattling child, we think that perhaps the Father thought it too for fragile for the t rials and sorrows of this so in love took it to His own bosom. And when some one who has passed the allotted three score and ten is ed unto his we look upon it as but the reaping of that which had unto But when one just the vigor of life's morning is the rose just bursting into its grandest beauty is bow our heads in amazement.

M.; and while it is sad, beyond our power of expression, to be compelled to speak of her as dead it is with pleasure th.-it we take occasion to give utterance to our appreciation of her many virtues, to bear testimony to those high ennobling qualities in her, that marked her in many respects, as one of our sweetest and best of Sunday-school scholars, and one of the brightest Jewels that adorned the Sisterhood of Kings Daughters to which she gave a place of unusual warmth in her affections, ever manifest- In her attachment to Its principles and to its members that freshness enthusiastic which so strikingly characterized her devotion to the School and to the Sisterhood of which she was a member and her in test in all the enterprises and good works contemplated by the same.

Respectfully. COX, Winterville, N. C of bright tobacco. There is more tobacco damaged than we have ever known. We have heard it estimated that the wet spell which have just had with the storm which receded it caused a loss of five thousand dollars to the farmers of this county. A fact which we very much deplore, knowing, as we do, that the farmers are feeling the hard times as much, if not more than any other class. Mr. J. S. Jenkins who for the past week has been on the North Carolina and Virginia markets has returned and reports only a gradual easing up of money matters. He says tobacco is higher on the Eastern Carolina markets any of the old es- ones. Mr. says he has good orders for this mar- to commence about Oct. 1st, and that it is the case everywhere that factories are not placing their orders before October and November. -Ma of- CARTS DRAYS We are glad that the business men are taking an interest in the market and that they have only words of praise for it.

Cum In reference to the general that went forth last week that the bottom had dropped out of the tobacco market we have this to v Prices are some lower than prevailed last week for the reason that only damaged tobacco has been offered. The same con- prevails on every market, buyers will not pay as much for , damaged stock as for good, that had is only natural. Good tobaccos when offered have been selling at satisfactory prices. Most plant- who have good stock are hold- waiting for their neighbors to sell, they offer only injured to- and report prices low, con- the one who has good tobacco is afraid to offer it, think- of course his neighbor sold good tobacco. The recent rainy spell caused considerable tobacco to damage, especially where it was not carefully watched. We hear similar reports of low prices from neighboring markets. Greenville is all right as a co market, having a good corps of active buyers, we are sure the here can and will get you as much for all grades of your tobacco as any market. Those who have tried shipping, seem convinced and are now offering in our home market. We hope for still higher prices, on the brighter grades, see no reason why they should not go higher, only the scarcity of money. We look for good prices this week for we hope most of the damaged stock has been disposed of. his personal references to us we want to say that it made us feel good though a great deal of it we expect is unmerited- It threw a different light on the warehouse business altogether and makes us feel that there is no obstacle too difficult to surmount if we can only get the backing of the east- tobacco tobacco growing was first commenced in the Eastern counties of the State old heads remarked that tobacco would never grow east of Raleigh and Warrenton. But the heads that wagged were mistaken, for the golden weed has gradually gone Eastward for four years and is now a great industry in East- Carolina. And not only this but some of the finest leaf which the trade now gets comes from this once section. The leaf grown in the Eastern counties is brighter and silkier that which grows farther up the State and it is now a well known fact that the choicest of bright wrappers and cutters now come from the tobacco fields in Eastern Carolina. The great factories of the West are now be- ginning to look to that section for the best wrappers for navy goods, while the great cigarette concerns of the country go there to get their best cutters. In the heart of this great bright tobacco producing section is Greenville which is destined to be the leading market of East. Greenville is the most Eastern of all the North Carolina markets and for this reason, if for no she will be the leader. Wilson is miles away and Rocky Mount the same distance and there is no competing market be- it is but natural to see that Greenville will become in tobacco selling in Eastern Caro- what Danville is to South- side Virginia. Rich tobacco lands surround Greenville on The production of the weed is increasing rapidly and more than this the planters in that section have a strong love for their home market. They are as much interested in the up- building of a great market in their own section as are the ware- house people themselves and it is but safe to say that the planters of Pitt and the surrounding ties will see that their tobacco crops are sold at home. If a home market is built up their to- will naturally bring them money and in the effort to build up Greenville the planters of the East are helping them- selves. Among the of the East there is no one who de- serves more credit than does Mr. O. L. Joyner, of Greenville, owner and proprietor of the Eastern To- Warehouse. Though Mr. Joyner is the youngest warehouse- man in the State he is one of the most enterprising and wide-awake. He is a type of the new South i hustler who knows no such word as fail and who is a credit to grades sold, as well as the most clever and gentlemanly treatment. It is perhaps but just to Mr- Joyner to say that he has done as much or more tor the of the Greenville market during the past two or three years than any warehouseman in any of the Eastern markets has done- He has over the tobacco counties of the Eastern Belt and personally inspected the lands of the planters and given much val- advice about tobacco plant- and tobacco curing. In Greenville he has been active in having leaf factories built and in securing good orders for that market from some of the largest firms the country. All this work has been cheerfully done, because Mr. Joyner has pitched his tent and is determined to stand by the Greenville market through thick and thin. But the fruit of his work is clearly seen in the largely increased sales. This year the loose sales of leaf in Greenville have increased over one million pounds over last year and the coming tobacco year is expected to make a still larger in- crease- For the of a wide awake tobacco market in their midst the farmers of the East are due Mr. 0- L- Joyner a lasting debt of gratitude- Notice.

A Noted London Monument. The monument erected in London between 1677 to recall the great fire was original with Sir Christopher Wren, but was not car- out according to his intention. He proposed that bronze flames should issue from the loopholes of the shaft and that the top should carry a phoenix to represent London risen from its own ashes. Sir Chris- gave up the phoenix because he feared the pressure of the wind on its outstretched wings, and argued that the meaning of the emblem would be lost at so great a height. He then proposed a colossal statue of Charles II. for the crowning piece, and found that monarch by no means averse. For some reason the plan was changed and a bronze vase from which bronze flames issue was hoisted to the perilous height. Metal for Bridge. Another most valuable series of investigations in regard to the metal best adapted for the of bridges has been made by the Austrian Society of Engineers.

The French lyric poet, Le was a master of satire. Friends and enemies alike dreaded his grams. So bitter and scathing was his wit that it required much age to incur his dislike.

In this ode ho had written, refer- ring to his benevolent king who honors After tho downfall of the monarchy ho read this ode aloud to a company.
