we were msinfurmei last week in re-
gard to the Centennial to be held by cur
Iuraviar friends at the Old Town Church
I The Centennial Of the church, we are told,
ras held several years ago. The monument
u bo erected this year over the grave Of
Matthews Stach, who died 100 hundred years
ago this summer, will lie in honor of his
being the first missionary from here to
Greenland
We do not expee. a single vote to be cast
| against the Railroad on February 18th,
but we are afraid that many people viii
| neglect going to the polls. See that your
neighbor is interested, talk to him about it,
and when the day comes see that he goes to
the polls. This is the only way to keep up
the interest and make the vote secure. Eve
~ person in the Twin-C City ought to feel it
| his duty to see that every vote on the regis
| ter is polled.
The entertainment given here
by the Boston Stars last Sat
| urday evening was success in every re-
spect excepting the audience. 1t was a
first class musical treat unequaled by any
thing we have heard this season. Mrs
| Henson's voice is sweet and under remarka
bic government. 1t is flexible yet full, soft
yet distinct. Every part in the program
was good and deserved a better patronage.
| We hope they Will come to Winston again,
and when they do we want our people to
| give them far larger audience.
Mr.. s. S. Wall, clever and well-to-do
citizen of Madison, Rockingham county,
died al his home at that place on Monday
| last The deceased was well known in
| Winston and was the uncle of our towns
man, Mr.. Sam Wall, the courteous and affa-
bic floor manager at the Orinoco Warehouse.
Mr.. Wall was one Of Rcckingham's progress
sive farmers and through his Jealous labors
he had gathered unto himself property val
ued at several thousand dollars. While he
lived lie was honored and esteemed and
NOW 8 large circle Of friends mourn his
departure.
Tobacco in Winston is selling at big
prices. i gent eman who is connected with
one of cur warehouses and who has been
upon the market for five years past informs
US that tobacco has never averaged better
prices than ii has for the past week,
since his sojolrn in Winston. The farmers
are highly pleased with the prices and go
away smiling, as much as to say that they
are more fully convinced than ever that
/ Winston is still the banner market for
high prices in the Old North State. With
this assurance, let every farmer within 100
miles around steer direct to Winston when
he is in search of high prices for his tobacco.
| We have buyers here who are anxious for
the weed.

The Celestial World.

The moon will be totally eclipsed on
Saturday the 2Sth. The phenomenon will
be generally visible throughout North and
South. America Europe, Asia and Africa
The conditions for observation will be spe-
cially favorable, as the spectator will nei-
ther be obliged to sit up late in the evening
nor set up early in the morning for view
of the interesting exhibition. The moon
enters the earth's shadow before sunset, but
when the total eclipse begins at 80 p. M.
it will be dark enough to watch its progress
through the most interesting stage The
moon will not be entirely lost to sight when
totally immersed in the earth's dark shad-
ow. She viii shine family, with lurid,
copper-colored light, thus giving an UNI
earthly aspect to the surrounding land
scape. This light is refracted into the
shadow by the earth's atmosphere.
An interesting phenomenon will take
place on the day that sthe unar eclipse takes
place. The moon will be in conjunction
with Saturn on the 18th at h. g. M a. m.
being at that time L 1O> south of the pla-
mel. Scientific american.

What am 4 To DO?

The symptoms of Biliousness are unhappys
individuals to some extent. A Bilious mania
seldom breakfast eater. Too frequently, ais
he has an excellent appetite for liquids bu
none for solids of morning. His tongue will
hardly bear inspection at any time; if it is not
white and furred, it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of orde-
and D1arrhea or Constipation may be symp-
tom or the two may alternate. There are Of
ten Hemorrhoids or even loss of blood. There
may be giddlness and often headache and acid
ity or fatulence and tenderness in the pit OF
the stomach. To correct all this if not effect a
cure try Green's August Fzotoer, it costs but a
trife and thousands attest its efficacy.

THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN

Are born into the world every day with some
eczematous affection, such milk crust, scall
head, scurf, or dandru9, sure to develop into an
agonizing eczema, the itching, burning, and
designation of which make life a prolonged
torture unless properly treated.
warm bath with CUTIoURA Soar, an exqui-
site skin beautifer, and a single application OF
CUrICuRA, the great skin cure, with a little Gu
TICuRA REsoLvENg, the new blood purifier, are
often sufficient to arrest the progress of the dis
ease, and point to speedy and permanent cure
Hence, no mother who loves her children
who takes pride in their beauty, purity and
health, and in bestowing on them child:
greatest inheritance.-a skin without a blem-
ish, and body nourished by pure blood
should fail to make trial of the CUTIcURA RENE
DIES.

Fine Sp Ort.

While the rain, hail, snow and sleet Of
the past week has been anything except Joy
with many, it has furnished fine sport and
amusement for others. OF the latter every
one was convinced who joined the coasters
in the Avenue along the side of the Salem
graveyard. The young, middIe-aged and
aged participated in the gleeful pastime
and indeed it seemed as if the old men were
again launching cut upon the days of youth,
for they were as active and gay IS those yet
in their teens.
The pretty maids were also there and the
young men never grew weary Of coasting
the fair lassies nor were they in escorting
them and the sleds back to the top of the
grade, which is some 800 yards distant. AS
We 60 to press the fun still holds high car

The prohibition element leans largely to-

lieve that they will support their own
ticket Harrison favored submission of
constitutional amendment promoting the
liquor traffic TO a vote of the people. but OF
laIe he has declared in favor of local option
and licepse high enough TO be mOnopoliS-
tic if not prohibitory. But the prohibition
lists are game Said one of them, a Fiske
and Brooks elector in this state,
to your correspondent to-day: Gen.
Harrison is a very respectable gentleman.
ton because he is aware that all the worst
elements of society are arrayed against
prohibition, and that the saloons are the
greatest danger that confrOnts the republic.
But we (the prOhibitiOnists) are looking
beyond the present contest We know that
if he republican party is defeated by the
democrats next November, the republican
organization as it stands to-day will have
to surrender to the prolubitlonists. This
is what we are working for. We propose to
whip the republicans into adopting our
views, and we believe we can do 1t. We
feel very kindly toward Gen. Harrison per
sonaily, but feel assured that Fiske and
Brooks will receive Il, 900 votes in the state
With another republican defeat, look out
for the merging Of the republican and pro
hibtionIst parties, and then we will sweep
the democrats from power and the rum
shops from tho land"
This very candid exposition of prohibi
ZIONIST hopes and aspirations was made by
one of the most influential prohibitionists
in the state All OF which aids in casting
light on the political situation.

Mr.. Morton and His Whiskers.
Fronl Ne Boston Herald.

New YORK, July 6.-AS soon as it be-
came evident that tine Chicago convention
was likely to make Levi +. Morton the re
publican candidate for the vice presidency -,
and ever since the nomination was made,
applications at his banking office for photo
graphs of him have been numerous. If the
callers explained that they desired the
portrait for publication, or for other
campaign purposes, polite clerk responded
with likeness such as has been widely
reproduced in the newspapers, representing
MIR. Morton as n clean-shaven gentleman.
But visitors who had some special errand
with Mr. Morton, and who were thereby
enabled TO get into his presence, saw a
parsonage wearing long, thick side whislters.
y our correspondent suggested - him that
his counterfeit presentment was so different
from the present original TINT he might
have difficulty in providing his identity.
''Ah, that is just the scheme, don't you
seer Mr.. Morton jocoselv replied. al
shall be able TO deny myself 10 vervbody
whom | don't care TO Talk with, and at the
same time ! can produce documentary evil

In view of Mr.. Morton's great wealth and
the certainty that be will have TO defend
himself against a horde OF strikers, this
joke Of his about conc. aling himself behind
his Whiskers might almost to- turned into a
serious device. But he has decided 10 abau-

A REMARKABLE FAMILY.
Father, Mother and Children Born on
Washiugton's Birthday.

From the Philadelphia North 1Hericdn
SHILLINGTON, PA, July l2-In this little
Berks county village lives Samuel Shilling,
a man who first saw the light of day sixty
nine years ago last Washington's birthday.
Beginning with the date of his birth, the
father Of his country has apparently exer-
csed a watchful care over him all through
his life, rs he on Feb. % married a lady
who like him. had shifted the first oxygen
on the anniversary of the day
Washington made his advent. Their
first chid--a boy--was born on
Washingtons birthday, exactly one year
after their marriage, and two years after
ward, on the same date, twius-a boy and
a girl-were added to the Washington
blessed household. Two years more rolled
around, when little girl-named Emma
came in with Il sharp cry to remind the
family that the time had arrived when it
would be fit and proper to again celebrate
the anniversary of the birth of the great
and only George, and, as though in accord
ance with pr earranged plan, another pair
of twins followed i'll exactly two years
from that date. Mr.. Shilling says that he
does not remember of either of his children
ever telling a lie about a Ratchet, and he
thinks that there is not another family in
America having such cause to remember
the annual recurrence of the date of the
birth of the immortal George Washington.
He expects to shuttle off this mortal coil on
the same date
