Best Thing He Ever Saw.

The following is an extract from q
letter written by Mr.. D. A. Reynolds,
editor and proprietor of the Herald,
Lyons, Mich, under date of January
18th, 1890: "You will observe that /
have given your advertisement posi-
ton on the first page of the Herald,
while other proprietary medicines
have had to take the run Of the pa
per. The reason for doing this is, that
upon receiving your copy number
of the cures effected seemed similar to
that of which my little son was suffer-
ing, case of blood poison, or irritable
sores breaking out all over his body.
Today he is entirely free from disease,
and one bottle of Swift's Specific Is. S.
S. did the work. Now this is the
reason for giving you the position, as
I consider Swift's Specific 6. S. S)the
best medicine I ever saw. / wish you
unlimited success in your business"
The above is sample of letters
which are coming to us all the time.
S. s. S. is nearer infallible than any
remedy made, and has probably done
more good than any medicine known
to mankind.
We will mail Treatise on Blood
and Skin Diseases to all who will send
their address.

OUR BRETHREN OF THE PRESS.

The Reidsville RevieU came out as
six column daily last Saturday. Its
editors announce that it is an exper-
in,ent, but we trust that it may be a
successful one. 1t takes nerve to start
a daily in a town of Reidsville's size.
Wade Harris has put the Charlotte
Ne,us into a brand new dress and his
paper is now pretty as we'll as good.
The Statesville Landmark will soon
issue big industrial issue. The
Chamber Of Commerce has appointed
a committee to canvass for it. The
people of Statesville know a good
thing when they see it, consequently
they do the square thing by the Land
mark:
The Daily State Chronicle is gain
ing ground and is a frst-class paper.
The write-up it gave Winston was a
good one, albeit its facts and figures
were little mixed.
The Greensboro Patriot announces
that it is soon to become daily. We
wish its talented editors the very best
of luck.

A sensation was created on the floor
of the House Friday by few re-
marks made by Representative Stone,
of Missouri, while batch of private
pension bills were being discussed. Mr.
Stone said that pension legislation was
despoiling the people under the name
of patriotism, and denounced the de-
mands of the G. A. r. He also stat
ed that at the last election the Presi
dency had been put up and solo to
the highest bidder. "Thank God"
continued Mr.. Stone, "there was one
grand man who declined to be party
to such a sale. Though he fell, he
fell bearing the reputation of wise
and incorruptible craftsmanship, and
enjoying the respect of every honest
citizen. [Uproarious applause Oh

An Attempt at Rape.
+ From tie Reidsril1e Reuie,o !

Allen Nelson, alias Edward Martin
and number of other names unneces-
sary to mention, who was employed as
farm hand by Mr.. VIM. Huffines, a
prominent farmer of this county, who
lives about seven miles from here, en-
tered by force the bedroom Thursday
night of Martha Randolph, 16 year
old white girl who sleeps upstairs in
Mr.. Hufines' house and attempted to
perpetrate his hellish crime when the
young girl screamed and ran out of
the room and downstairs to the apart
ments which Mr.. Huffnes occupied.
While telling in excited language
Mr.. Huffines the occ trance, the negro
entered the room AID threatened to
kill the girl if she repeated the state
ment and tried to cut her with knife,
Mr. and Mrs. Huffines interposed
and prevented him until the girl could
escape from the house and find her way
to a near by neighbours. Next morn.
ing search was made for Nelson and he
was found not far from the house lying
on the ground asleep with knife be-
side him. 1t is thought that he was
awaiting the appearance of the girl,
when he would make another attempt
to kill her. He was arrested and car
ried before Squire Hightower, who
sent him OIL to court. He was brought
here yesterday and lodged in the cal
abouse and carried to Greensboro jail
last night. The people are very indig-
nant and there were some who wanted
to take the law into their own hands.

REV. ISRAEL HOLLER,

The above named citizen of Wilkes
county. sometime since preached that
the world would come to an end this
year. A report ofhim and his preach
ing which was sent out to the press
from Charlotte stated that he was a
Primitive Baptist, and did that sect
great injustice. The report was prin-
ted ii The SENTINEL as a matter Of
news, but when it wss corrected in the
Wilkesboro Chronicle, a week later,
The SENTINEL promptly published
the correction.
Some of The SEN1INEL's friends,
who a1e Primitive Baptists, failed to
zee II ieerrection and this week we
we're called on by Rev N. B. Orrell,
OF Abbotts Creek, this bounty, who is
q prominent minister of that denomi-
nation Mr.. Orrell expressed himself
as being perfectly satisfied with THE
SENTINEL's fairness in making the cor
'rectioD. He explained that it would
be impossible for any Primitive Bap-
lists to preach doctrines like Mr.. Hol
ler's and remain in the Church. He
would be promptly expelled. He said,
further, that one who does rot pay his
just debts is not allowed to retain his
membership.
Such practical Christianity as this is
what is needed in this age and time
and every man must acknowledge that.
in this respect, the Primitive Baptists
are setting an example which other
would do we'll to follow.

YOUNG COWLES, SUICIDE.

One of the saddest things that has
occurred in North Carolina in long
time was the selfdestuction of young
David w. Cowles at Horner's school
ON Tuesday. With an honorable and
distinguished ancestry and the bright
prospect of following in the footsteps
bf his father, it seems that he had
everything that youth most Graves,
with the one exception Of robust
health.
The facts in the case are as follows:
He was officer of the day on Tuesday
and called the roll. He then went on
his first recitation and from that re-
turned to his room, together with his
room-mste, Charles Emery. When
the signal for the next recitation was
sounded, he remarked that he was
feeling unwell and thought he would
I'd to bed. Emery left the room, and,
rs he did so, saw young Cowles go to-
wards his trunk.
That was the last time he was ever
seen alive. About twenty minutes
later Capt. Drewry entered the room
ON his morning rounds and found him
lying on the bed with pistol bullet
through his head. He was lying on
his back and between his legs lay a
80 calibre Smith & Wesson revolver
with one of its chambers empty. The
bullet had been fired into his right
temple and went straight through his
head, lodging just under the skin on
the left side of his head. Life was en-.
tirely extinct and it is thought that he
died instantly
a coroner's jury was summoned,
which rendered verdict that he came
to his death by pistol shot from his
own hand. 1t is stated that two of his
friends who roomed near him heard
the report, but that both thought it
was at some distance, as the door was
closed and the walls were thick.
He left nothing in the way Of let
ter exb laining why he took bis own
life, a ID the only explanation that is
given lis that he frequently suffered
from tmelancholia, produced by i'll
healthl and for some days had been
gloomy.
His father, Hon. w. H. II. Cowles,
Congressman from the 18th district, was
at once telegraphed the sad news. The
telegram was received by Senators
Vance and Ransom, who broke the
news to the grief stricken father as
gently as sympathetic friends could,
but the shock was awful, and the
brave soldier who had faced many a
storm of shot and shell, and had seen
thousands die, was completely pros
trated, and it was some time before he
could be carried to his room.
The people of North Carolina will
sympathize with Col. Cowles in the
great grief that has been laid upon
him. Hard IS it may be to bear, it
may be lightened by the tender SYM
patty of those who know and love
him.
