J. S. GRANT, Phi. G.,
OF Philadelphia College Of Pharmacy.
ApOthecary, a. South Main st.

The old Year has drawn to close,
and with the beginning of the New Year
we wish to thank the public for their
patronage and recognition of our efforts
to do our full duty. We are fully con-
sciOus that it is to them that we owe the
unexpected success ofthe past year, in
which our business has been more than
doubled, and we can only regard it as a
new evidence that our business n,axims
are such as to cause our customers to
have confidence in US and attract those
who are cautious in dealing with any
Pharmacist until they have become fully
assured of the nature and extent of his
business principles. In our dealing with
the public we realize that the most scru.
puious care and honesty are paramount
in importance. If these are virtues in
all ordinary business transactions, they
become sacred duties in Pharmacy, and
without them no one can be true Phar-
macist. The health, maybe the life, o'
those dealing with the Apothccary de-
pends upon them. II'e consider it our
most sacred duty to Sliun adulterations
and spoiled as well as inferior drugs.
They constitute an evil from which Phar-
macy suffers no less than the public. The
evil is not n new one, inaugurated in late
years; ii has existed as long as there
were men whose cupidity was stronger
than their sense of justice, and il will
doubtless continue as long as there may
he men with conceptions Of business so
vague that they expect to purchase gold
for the money value of dross. There are
no other moral principles required for
transacting a Pharmaceutical business
than are necessary foran o otier business.
Unwarcring integrity that remains unin-
Huenced by the visions of gold along the
road of questionable or deceitful prac-
tees is the only foundation for success
that is worthy the name; it is so in
every pursuit, and more particularly in
Pharmacy, where as a matter of neces-
sity il must be combined with constant
vigilance in all directions, so as to secure
all possible safeguards.
These are the principles which we have
endeavored to live up to, and to which
we trust our increasing success is due.
We hope our former patrons will show
the same kindness toward us in the m-
ture that they have in the past, knowing
that no action OF ours will ever make
them regret continuance OF their "a
vors. Yours truiy,
Us. GRANT. Ph. G., Pharmacist,

More About the Boyle Case.

RALEIGH, January 16.--Thc supreme
court to-day filed an opinion in the nota-
bic capital case Of ]. J. Boyle, a priest OF
the Roman Catholic church, who was
convicted of rape upon Geneva Whitaker,
young girl who was the organist at
his chnrch. The opinion is by Chief Jus.
ticc Merriman, and gives Boyle a new
trial. The court holds that there was
an error in the Judges charge in the
superior court in failing to sufficiently
explain the law arising thereon. The
Judge should have called the jurv's at.
tcntion to the evidence as to the place
where the alleged rape was committed
and the presence Of persons near the
house who heard no outcry from the
girl, and the fact that atterward she
joined her companions without telling
them she had been outraged.

CRAzED by SICKNESS.

and Attempts suicide.

FAIRRAuLT, MINI, Januasy 17.-One
of the most shocking tragedies that ever
occurred in this county took place this
morning at the residence of James Nc.
Neil. Jr,, near Cannon lake. Mcneil arose
about O'Clock and went into the kitchen
to build fire. As soon as he had gone
his wife locked the door, and taking a
revolver from the bureau drawer, shot
three of her children. Mcneil heard the
shots, and tried to get to the bedroom,
but could not get in. He then started
around the house and went in the front
door, and met his wife coming from the
kitchen, where she had chased the Oldest
child and made her take carbolic acid
and took some herself The little girl
evidently struggled with her mother, as
her face and hands were covered with
the acid. One child was killed instantly,
and one died about 10 O'Clock this morn.
ing. The baby, three weeks old. was
shot through both lungs, but at last re-
ports was still alive. The woman and
the girl to whom she gave the acid are
also alive, and may live. Mrs. Mcneil
gives as a reason for the deed that she
was sick and had no hopes of getting
well, and wanted to end her suferings at
once.

WASHINGTON. January 17.-HOUSE-
The Speaker stated that the journal OF
Wednesdays proceedings. which was ap-
proved yesterday, proved to be inaccur-
ate in few instances. He, therefore,
caused the journal to Ike read as cor
rected, and it was finally approved.
Mr.. Mckinley called up his motion to ta-
bic the motion to reconsider the vote by
which the House yesterday refused to
substitute the resolution reported by the
committee on rules as amended by the
adoption of a common resolution for the
original resolution referred to the COM
mittee. A motion to table the motion to
reconsider was agreed to: Yeas al,
nays 142.
The question then recurred on the
adoption of the original resolution, as
follows:
Resolved, That select committee OF
nine members be appointed by the Speak
er to be called the "World Fair Commit
tee" to which shall be referred all mat
ters relating to the proposed celebration
OF the four hundrt dth anniversary of the
discovery Of America, or the Worlds Fair
of 1892.
The resolution was then adopted. Yeas
al nays 1856, Mr.. Springer changing his
vote from the negative to the affirmative.
in order to enter n motion to reconsider.
Mr.. Springer said that he only desired that
the committee should be instructed to re-
port next week to the House plan by
which the location might he selected. AS
il now stood the committee would he
authorized to select the location. He
withdrew his motion to reconsider, stat
ing that he would trust to the fairness of
the committee and OF the house.
Mr.. Flower. .ofNew York, introduced the
New York Worlds Fair bill, and it was
referred to the special committee when
appointed.
Mr.. Raines, of New York. offered resolu-
tion increasing the membership OF that
committee from nine to thirteen. 1t was
referred to the committee on rules.
The house then went into committee

Editors In England.

In England the editor Of newspaper
has no such interesting personality as he
has here. No matter what the influence
or circulation Of n journal, the name Of
the editor is rarely asked for. The two
notable exceptions, who prove this rule,
are Sir Edwin Arnold, Of the Daily Tclc.
graph. and w. T. Stead, of the Pail Mall
Gazette. OF these two, Stead is by far
the more notorious, for he has the more
striking and eccentric personality. The
Pail Mall Gazette is the one sensational
daily Of London, and many a sensation
has It made. One Of them landed Stead
in prison and fame.

As to the objections of the Haytians to

IL don't think there can be any objection

ground of his having white wife. Not

THE RIVER IL RISING.
Fears Of a Most Disastrous Flood
Along the Banks of the Ohio.

EVANSVILLE, Ind, January 17.-The
river at this point passed the danger line
on the gauge at 8 O'Clock last evening
and is still rising at the rate of a hall
an inch an hour. The water is rapidly
spreading over the bottom lands, and
those who have not already been driven
from their homes by the rising waters,
are removing their families and stock.
4 great amount of corn has been de-
stroyed, and farmers having grain it is in
great danger of being washed away.
Laborcrs are placing it above the high
water. The prospects now are that the
water will reach a much greater height
than at any time since the food of 1850.
The situation is anything but encourag-
ing. Officers of the steamer Blue Wing
from Calhoun. which arrived here last
night, report the river rising at a rate of
two inches per hour. Hundreds OF fami-
lies have been driven from their homcs,
and many of them are living in churches
and school houses.

Little Kate was one Of those children
who furnish their parents with interest

afternoon she came to her mother and
begged for a Bible story Her mother
was reading, but Katie begged hard, and
at last said; IF you will tell me Bible
story first, mamma, then | will tell you
a real good one, too"
Her mother related the story of Sam
son and the lion, and of the bees which
came and stored their honey in the lions
carcass.
"And now what is the Bible story you
are going TO tell meY' she asked.
With perfect gravity Katie began at

which had just been told TO her, using

her go through it, and then said;
But that is the very story told you.
