Raleigh's board of aldermen and the commits
sioners Of Wake county have raised the price
of retail liquor license from 1925 to S725. and
have thus taken an important practical step
towards the restriction of the liquor traffic in
the territory under their jurisdiction. If the
act of the legislature, which authorized them
to do this, also conferred upon them addition
al pow ers to prescribe regulations for the more
effective control of the business and especially
the suppression of the low resorts where the
vilest of poisons are sold as beverages and
men are f1eeced like sheep, then Raleigh is
likely to experience such benefcent moral
revolution as its good people have never
dreamed off, High license is the high priest

When Prof. Steinfeldt appeared and
executed Beethoven's Moonlight Son
alta the audience greeted him with
rapture and he kept his place in their
estimation by his wonderfully clear
execution of Rigoletto, by List, and
the Barcarol.e of Rubeustein.
Mr.. Marks rendition of Faust by
Pablo was also applauded, and Mrs.

heard 10 the very best advantage.
Miss Simpson showed herself in her
playing of Mendelssohn's Caprices,

 Robinson Poisoning Gases.
 There was a commotion among the doctors at a recent meeting of the Massacnusetts Medico-Legal society, when It was 1oono that reporters for secular newspapers were taking notes. Papers bearing specially on the notorious Robinson arsenieal poisoning cases had been announced.
 Dr. Holt declared that there was general ignorance of the symptoms ot arsenlcai pol- soning, and claimed that because or this lg- norance the Robinson poisoning cases had gone on without arousing susplclons on the part of medical men. There were, he said, at least eight cases of criminal poisoning; seven occurred within five years, and ln che family, and the other was that of relative. lsroe nractice r,rominent in the profession, !, and vet no suspicion of arsenicai poisoning was aroused until an organization m Wnicn the victims were insured tried to determine 2 by investigation why so many persons aleo suddenly in this family.
 In support of his statement as to the lgno. rance of medical men of the symptoms ol certificates of death were given ln nVe ot the Robinson cases as follows: Pneumonia, sy phoid fever, meningitis, bowel disease and Bright's disease.
 The startling disclosure ct the stupid lg- norance shown in the treatment of those cases is quite in keeping with the usual ln- discretion manifested by the profession in the treatment of persons who are suEerers from the slow and subtle poison which IS generated in the system from diseased state of the kidneys. The afflicted are treated for consumptlon, apoplexy, for brain and various nervous dis" orders, when in most instances 1t Is shown, when too late, that the patient wss wrong-- fully and ignorantly treated for supposed disease which was in reality but symptom of kidney disease, and should have been tiMely treated as such by the use of War; ners Safe Cure, which is the only remedy known that can be successfully relied on ID the treatment of such disease.
 Such exhibitions of stupidity by those who profess great intelligence in such mat. ters is calculated to destroy confidence, and it can be we'll said that a remedy like War. ner's Safe Cure, which places the direct means of preserving health in the sufferers hands, is far more meritorious than high priced medical advice, which is so generally worthless and too often based upon an erro- neous opinion as to the true cause of illness.
 Human life is just little too precious to the average individual to be sacrificed to the bigotrv or ignorance of others.
