Simple Method for Termination.

At a meeting of the last congress of
German scientists this subject was dis.
cussed, and DR.. II. Frank mentioned that
there are but two ways to stimulate the
heart-electricity and mechanical concus-
sion of the heart. The first is considered
dangerous by him as it may easily destroy
the last power of contraction remaining
in the organ. But what is termed pee
toral conclusion" is decidedly preferable.
DR.. Franks method is as follows: He
fexes the hands on the wrist to an obtuse
angle, places them both near each other
in the ileocecal region, and makes vigor-
GUS strokes in the direction of the heart
and of the diaphragm. These strokes are
repeated from fifteen to twenty times, and
are succeeded by o pause, during which
he strikes the chest over the heart re.
pcntedly with the palm of his hand. In
favorable cases this method is early sue
ccsssul, and sometimes a twitching of the
Ids or the angles of the mouth appears
with surprising rapiGity as the first sign
OF returning life. As soon ss these symp-
toms are noted, the simple ~manipulations
above described must be earnestly con
tinued and persevered in from a half to
one hour, for, with their cessation, the
phenomena indicating beginning of return
of life also cease. Generally. the face as

zane time u faint palsa.ion nay be felt in

Reducing the rurp,us.

The disposition of the surplus In the
United States treasury engages the atten-
ton of our statesmen, but u more vital
question has our attention, and that is the
reduction of the surplus consumptives.
Since the discovery and introduction of
DIR. Kings New Discovery for Consump-
ton. there has been a marked decrease in
the mortality from this dreaded disease,
and it is possible to still further, reduce the
number of consumptives. How? By
keeping constantly at hand a bottle of
DIR. Kings New Discovery and using
according to directions upon the appear
ance Of the first symptoms, such as a
cough, a cold. a sore throat, a chest or
side pain. Taken thus early a cure is
guaranteed. Trial bottles free at DR.. w.

Results of Mouth BREATHING.

Many disease germs enter through an
open mouth. The mouth was not made
for breathing, but for eating and speak
ing. The nose was made for breathing,
and the air, passing through the long,
moist nasal passages, is purified, and
leaves behind dust, disease germs and
various impurities, while the air is
warmed and tempered for the lungs.
But when the mouth is left open, dust,
dirt and disease rush down into the lungs
and, fastening there, develop and destroy
the whole system. Boston Budget.

Mexico.

Philadelphia, Sept. 9.
Advices received in The city of Mexi-
co yesterday from GaudaIajara state
that the Legislature has approved the
loan by the National Bank to the
State Of Xalisco, with interest at 6
per cent.
Mr.. Joseph Pool, head Of The Eng
Iish- American syndicate, proposes to
build a railroad across Mexico from
the Gulf to the Pacific Ocean. lie
claims to have obtained a subsidy
from the Mexican Government for
the purpose. The western terminus,
it is declared, will be TOnala, on the
Pacific; the eastern, San Juan Ban
tista, on The River GrivnIva, 100
miles from the Gulf. This river
which is very deep, will receive yes
sells drawing 25ft. of Watel as far IN
land as the proposed railroad termin-
us. The length of the road is 225
miles. BY lhis line the route to New
York would be 500 miles shorter than
by the I~thmuS of Panama. The ne
cessary capital is said to have been
obtained. President Diaz, ofIIexico,
is actively interested in the scheme.

Bishop "StrOssmayer.

Vienna, Sept. 10.
A very great sensation has been
caused by the public reprimond
which the Emperor Of Austria adj
ministered yesterday at BelIovar to
DR.. Strossmayer, Bishop of Diako,
var. This able but turbulent pre-
late is at the head Of the Nationalist
party in Croatia, and has laboured
with restless activity to promote dis
affection among the Creations against
the kingdom of Hungary, with which
Croatia is incorporated. PansIavism
is the tendency of such a policy, and
Bishop Strossfnayer, in championing
"tie rights % she Southern Slavs, has
been gravitaliug more and more to-
wards Russia, insomuch that a few
weeks ago, during the religious fes-
~tjvitieS at Kief, he sent a telegram to
the festival committee in which he
prayed for BLESSINGS on the universal
mission which God had designed
Russia to fulfil III the world"
This was a remarkable message
for a Roman Catholic Bishop TO adj
dress to members Of a schismatic
Church, while politically il was start

A Chinese Tragedy.
(Fr0m the TjnleS.)

= van" WV + w
The following story cores from
Hangchow, the capital city of Che
kiang province, and situated a short
distance south of Shanghai. The
Magistrate concerned was the head
of one Of the leading families in the
city, and the closing of their house
in mourning for him drew attention
90 the circumstances. 1 wO merchants,
having transacted some business az a
neighbouring lair, were returning
home with q considerable sum OF
money IN their possession. The district
has a bad reputation for its idle men
and robbers, and the merchants were
watched and the direction in Which
they went noted. The same evening
an innkeeprr on the road they travel
led, but some miles distant from the
town, received a visit from some men
who asked if the two merchants were
to spend the night there, as they had
some business with them. They were
told that no such persons were exppc-
ted, and they left. Soon afterwards
the merchants came up and demanded
a nights lodging but the innkeeper
absolutely refused, saying, "Some
men known to be robbers have been
here inquiring for you. Your only
chance is to hasten to the house Of a
military mandarin who lives about
two u from here. If he takes you in
you will be safe, otherwise neither of
you will be alive tomorrow" The
travellers FASTENED on, and were will
ingiy received by the mandarin, who
heard their story end at once made
preparations to resist the expected at
tack. Among other things he had so
barricaded his gate with stones that
when it was opened only one person

the gate was opened the robbers

Immediately slain by those within.
Then the door was bolted again, four
dead bodies being inside. Soon there
was further knocking, and a mans
voice was heard asking what had
come to those inside for answer the
head Of one of them was thrown over
the wall. With this in their posses
sion the remaining robbers fastened
off to the neighbouring magistrate, a
prominent citizen of Hangchow nam
ed Lob, and told a plausible story Of
a night attack made on them by the
military mandarin, and of the slaugh-
ter of their c0mrade whose head they
exhibited. At this point the military
mandarin and his brothers arrived and
gave a true account of what had hap
pened, and the mag iSlrate suggested
that all Should wall until morning,
when the facts would be investigated.
But the robbers urged that they
should be allowed to return to guard
the dead bodies Of their friends; other
wise they would have disappeared by
morning and all evidence would be
lost. The magistrate thought this
was reasonable, md let The men 90 I'M

Interpretation Of his telegram.
Yesterday, during the lpvee at
BelIovar, it was observed that the
Emperor and Crown Prince took no
notice of Bishop Strossmayer, who
had come to salute His Majesty
with a deputarion OF the Oroatian
clergy. 1t was not until all the pre-
sensations were ended that His Ma
jesty, addressing the Bishop from a
distance in a distinct voice which could
be heard all through the room,
said =
My Lord Bishop, have heard

which you sent on the occasion of IA
non-Catholic festival. AT first |
would not believe that a subject OF
mine had written such words, but to
my great regret [ have learned that
you did write them. You do not
seem to he aware of what a cuIpable
step you have taken against the

The Bishop answered, "Your Ma
jesty, my conscience is clear" Upon
this there were general murmurs, for
the Bishops attitude and tone were
judged to be unbecomingly arrogant.
DR.. $tro>Sm1ver then retired with

later he called upon the Crown
Prince, but WdS refused an audience.

A WARNING.

The modes of deaths approach
are various, and statistics show con-
clusively that more persons die
from diseases of the Throat and
Lungs than any other. 1t is prob.
able that everyone, without excep-
ton. receives vast numbers of Tu-
bercle Germs into the system and
where these germs fall upon suita
Bile soil they start into life and de-
velop, at first slowly and is shown
by slight tickling sensation in the
throat and if allowed to continue
their ravages they extend to the
lungs, producing Consumption and
to the head, causing Catarrh. Now
all this is dangerous and if allowed
to proceed will in time cause death.
AT the onset you must act with
promptness allowing a cold to go
without attention is dangerous and
may lose you your life. As soon as
you feel that something is wrong
with your Throat. Lungs or Nos
trils, obtain bottle of Boschee's
German Syrup. 1t will give you
immediate relief.

He talks and acts as if he wanted
to impress truth. There are noneof
the dramatic tricks of the orator, no
stilted bombast, no rhetorical pyro-
technics. His manner is simplicity
itself, earnestness undisguised.
Perhaps the most effective part
of his sermon is the matter. His
analysis is the best we have ever
heard. He would make magnifi-
cent lawyer. A subject is divided
up, usually, into three simple pro-
ositions. These are proved and
then his conclusion is irresistible
and overwhelming. It is common
sense, logical arrangement and SUI
perb illustration and always carries
conviction.
Taken all in all he is man OF
wonderful power and is doing good
work.
He will continue here until the
second week in October, when he
will go to Goldsboro. He has done
inestimable good in Statesville, Sal
isbury, Raleigh, New Berne, Viii.

and believe that his work in Win
ston will be crowned by glorious
success.

Taxes Must Co ne, or Homesteads Must

The Constitution does not protect
the home tead from the sherifPs ham,
mer. Taxes must come or homesteads
must go. And they came very near
going once.
The Radical Legislature of 1868
SO issued special tax bonds to the
amount of $23, 680,O0O. That was
pretty big sum, almost too big for US
poor people of North Carolina to un-
stand without stating what it is. 1t
was very nearly one-thiid of all the
real property in North Carolina. The
taxes collected for that one Legisla
lures waste nearly bankrupted the
people, and did bankrupt the Radi-
cal party. 1t has never had another
Legislature.
Since then mems lives, liberty and
property have been safe peace, quiet,
plenty and prosperity have once more
gladdened their hearts and they have
felt the State government rather
through the blessings it bestoys than
through the injuries it did infict.
Look to the Legislature Dishon-
esty. incompetency, extravaganza and
wasteful expenditure of the peoples
money will result now as in 1862, and
now as then render high taxes inevi-
table.

steads must go!

of the Cumberland Presbyterian
church at 1upelo, in that state, was
assistant pastor at Nashville, Tenn,
and declined the pastorate of the
church in Louisville, KY.
For the past six years he has been
holding non-denominational meet
ings and in the capacity of a preach
er of Gods Word, without sectarian
bias, he comes to Winston.
The large Centenary Methodist
church, the largest auditorium in
Winston and one of the largest in
the state, is not ample enough to
hold the great throngs that go to
hear him nightly.
In appearance he is tall, thin and
sallow. He wears very long cler-
ical coat, buttoned at the top. Near
ly every body, at first sight, thinks
him very young man. In reality
he is between thirty-five and forty
years old.
His power doesn't depend on
any one thing. Primarily, his thor
ough conservation has its effect on a
listener, but his voice, his manner
and the matter of his sermons all
