What Is Heart Failure =?

Every day We hear of deaths from heart
failure. Strong men in the prime of life,
whose expectancy is naturally many
years, drop like they had been shot at
the FIRST approach of disease. The show
ing is startling. Physicians are point
ing thoughtfully to overworking of mind
and body. A professor in the University
of Pennsylvania has been asked to give
his views. Nearly one-half of the deaths
that now occur are ascribed to heart
failure. The thing is fad, and instead
of diagnosing fatal diseases, physicians
take the direct result and ascribe death
to heart failure. A man may have
typhoid fever or congestion Of the lungs
and die of heart failure. A man may
suffer long time from complication ol
diseases and the heart, driven to do more
work than it should, suddenly gives out
The heart is teased and fretted by disease
or too much activity beyond its powers
and suddenly gives out. Heart failure
is said to be the cause of death, bu1
intense nervous strain or long disease ha:
caused the heart to cease.
Heart failure causes no more deathl
now than before. OF course the rapie
rush for wealth which chsracterizes tht
life of the American of the present day
is likely to increase the prevalence 0
heart disease, as it consumes the nervous
force of the body at 8 rapid rate, and i
is the nerves which have direct action
on the heart.

A Beauty at the Lathe,

New HAVEN, January 16.-Miss Mel.
lie Paterson, one of the prettiest girls in
the village of Mount Carmel, few miles
north of this city, has just completed
four years apprenticeship to the machin.
ist's trade. To-day she is working at her
lathe and wise in the factory of Che
Mount Carmel Belt Company, and there
isn't mechanic in the whole shop who
can do better job or in less time than
the fair young workwoman. Four years
ago, when Miss Nellie began to think of
the means whereby she must earn her
living, she looked over the whole field of
woman's work. Among the trades or
occupations which the pushing women of
this country had made their own there
was none she especially liked. She was
bright girl, with great deal of Yankee
cleverness, and considerable ingenuity
and inyentiveness. The remark was made
by friend that she was so fond of inven.
tions she ought to become machinist.
The seed thus idly sown took root, and
sdo applied tor place as apprentice.
Fur the past four years she worked faith
fully, and few days ago her time ex.
pired, and she is now full.hedged
machinist. She is able to block up a
piece of work on the planer or turn up an
arbor on the lathe. She uses the drill or
handles file as we'll as any man in the
shop. Her speciality, however, is tool
making, and to this she proposes to devote
herself. She can also draw plans, figure
out dimensions, and from the working
drawings she can make anything. She is
not afraid of the grease and CRIME of the
shop, and her beauty is not in the least
marred by long swipe of dirt across her
dimpled cheek, nor spot of oil on her
nose. Her hands are not as white as
those of some of her sisters, but they are
by no means large, though they are strong.
She is a great favorite with her fellow
workmen, and is the pride of the little
eat.gtfy fillsEe.

RICHMOND, January 20.-The Rich.
mond State sent requests to q number OF
prominent men all over the country for
some sentiment appropriate to Lees
birthday, which it publishes this after.
noon. Among those who responded are
the following:
Gen schofeld says: 81 will say that
it was the we'll known character of the
Southern soldiers, of which that of Gen.
Robert E. Lee was the highest typ,
which made it possible for the Union
army to regard the Confederates not as
rebels to be either punished or pardoned,
but as honorable antagonists worthy to
become trusted friends when they had
laid down their arms. Thus this high
character became of ines.imable value to
the Southern people, and hence to the
whole country"
Admiral Porter writes "No man
should hesitate to bear testimony to the
reputation of Gen. Robert E. Lee as one
of the greatest soldiers of the civil war.
But Tor his generalship the Southern
Confederacy would no doubt have aoone,
broken up, and he kept his army togeth.
er under circumstances that would have
appalled, almost any other leader. Gen
Lee accepted the situation after Apo
mattox in the true spirit which charac
terized all his actions, and I feel sure
that when he died he had the respect o.
every Northern soldier and sailor, to say
nothing of the thousands of citizens WHIT
admired his private character"
Governor Campbell, of Ohio, says
Gas Northern man and member o
| that wing of the Democratic party which
readily conceded anything to preven
| war, yet cheerfully risked everything tt
preserve the Union after war had come,
pay my modest tribute to Robert e. Lee

Cardinal Gibbons says: "Gen. Lee
Was hero of whom the whole nation i
proud"

pieces in Texarkana. Having done some
little work in newspaper way, I decided
to play journalist until times got better ;
but, sir, I couldn't get place. I offered
to work for my board; but no, I couldn't
get in. After awhile, giving up the
journalistic idea, l struck out afoot. I
wanted to avoid the regular lines of trav-

thing to eat would be better, consequently
I went through the country. Houses
were few, and I came very nearly starv-

stopped, and just as I was about to ask
for something to eat, man-Who I soon
discovered owned the mill-turned to me

The Mountain Creek School is under

most too early in the term to tell what he

Shiloh School was next in order, and
although we were quite sick, the sight Of
so many bright eyes and faces frightened
us up considerably. Mr.. W. R. Earle has
charge Of the school for ten months
term, and the zeal and earnestness mani
tested by the teacher approves the choice
made by the patrons. There has been no
school here for several terms, yet Mr..
Earle is rapidly overcoming all this, and
placing his school in the first rank, and
ne expect to gee great advances made by
the time of our next visit.

we proceeded the next morning to the
Springfield Colored School, in charge of
Mr.. P. E. Heriot. Although this school
does not yet show up as it ought, by
reason of previous bad management, yet
ne think 1t is in better hands than usual,
and this opinion is shared by the neigh
hors, both white and black. The lack of
proper text books is one of the great
.hindrances here.

at Evergreen we found a colored school
taught by J. A. Richie. This house is
too small for any purpose, and the stove
smokes horribly, so that neither teacher
nor pupils eau, give that attention they
ought. The teacher, though, is trying,
and his patrons seem interested, as a few
months ago their former teacher was
arrested on charge Of forgery, and they
had another teacher inside of three
days.

CHARLOTTE, N. C., Jan. 29.-News is
received here to-day OF fatal explosion
in Wilkes County, yesterday, in which
Eve men were killed and a dozen wound.
ed. A squad of railroad hands were
working on an extension of the Cape
Fear g. Yadkin Valley Railroad, in the
lower portion of that county. They were
preparing to make heavy blast, which
was expected to .ear up big rock in q
twenty foot cut. A tremendous hole
had been driven in The rock, and two
kegs Of dynamite had been packed into
it.
George Hendly, q laborer, was prepar,
ing to adjust the fuse, at the same time
smoking cigarette from which a spark
accidentally dropped in and fred off the
powder. It was all done in an instant
and no one had time to escape. The ex.
plosion roared like dozen cannoDs and
not only burst up the big rock but also
tore up fifteen feet Of the deep cut.
Five unfortunate workmen were sent
whirling into the air, riding on large
pieces Of the broken rock. Among the
flying earth, dozen others were knocked
about and partially buried under the
falling dirt.
When the smoke of the blast cleared
away it was found that five had beer
killed, as follows: George Hendly
Samuel Culls, Thomas Emery, JOSEPH

were more or less wounded but only three
