Messrs. Thomas J. iIardie andkJ.
NJ. Kirkland, OF Danville, Va, have
been here tor two weeks renovating
feathers and making mattresses.
They do good work as evidenced
by the satisfaction it produces.
Everybody tor whom they have
done work has been delighted with
it. Old feather beds are as good as
new after being put through their
steaming process, which cleanses
them thoroughly and restores them
10 their primitive condition. They
should be patronized literally by all
house keepers.-Milton Advertiser.
In addition to the above Messrs.
Hardie and Kirkland have recon-
mendations from some OF the best
citizens of Caswell county. Messrs.
Hardie and kirkland will be in
Hillsboro some time, and they will
be glad to do all work in their line.
They guarantee entire satisfaction.
They also pay special attention to
the re-uphols,ering OF old cushioned
furniture. Being expert workmen,
they are satisfied that they can give
satisfaction to all who give them
their work. They can be found in
the Cheek building. north Of the
court house.

AMERICAN sEAMEN.

where an American Citizen is Not En-
titled to ReIieG-An Important De-
cisiOn.
Judge Durham, First Comptroller OF
the Treasury Department, Washington,
on Dec. 18th rendered an important de
cision on the term american seaman"
by rejecting the claim of the United
States Consul at Smyrna for $72.1S, ex-
pended by him as relief for men claiming
to be American seamen. Facts of the
case, as related by the Consul, are that
in November, 1887, three. Americans,
VIM. Platter, VIM. Anderson and Sam
uel Alleyne, shipped at New York on the
bark Jung Frau, flying the Greek flag
and under English registry, for voyage
to Port Said, Egypt. The seamen were
put off the vessel on the Island of Chlos
in the Turkish Archipelago. They APP
piled to the Consul and obtained relief
as American seamen. Judge Durham In
his decision holds that although they
may be American citizens, yet when
they shipped under a foreign flag, they
lost the right to the claim of American
seamen, as they must be judged by the
flag under which they sailed. He, there
fore, rejects the claim Of the Consul, but
commends him for his charity and re-
commends that he apply to Congress for
relief

Refusing Pardons.

President Cleveland has denied the
application for the pardon of Henry O..
Anderson Of Arkansas, convicted in 1887
of a violation of the Pension laws, and
sentenced to five years imprisonment.
In denying the application the President
says: : 1t must be a very exceptional
case in which / will interfere to relieve
prisoners convicted of offenses against
the Pension laws, and this application is
so utterly devoid of any feature which
entities it to favorable consideration that
have no difficulty IN refusing it, The
President also refused to pardon George
M. Balm, defaulting Virginia bank
official, because he put no faith in the
claim regarding the prisoners ill-health.

We publish in another column an item
about the recent municipal election in
Boston. Later information assures us
that the attempt to recognize Sec
tartan claims in the management of
the public schools received signal re-
Duke, and that the parties who were
willing to suppress the facts of history in
the interests of one particular church
were routed, horse, foot and dragons.
The American people are very patient,
and even apparently apathetic some
times, regarding important public ques-
tons, but when the issue is. once fairly
raised, it will be found that they will not
consent to priests, or clergymen of any
kind, debating in the interests of their
particular churches, what may and what
may not be taught in the public schools.
