Troops Ordered Out to Prevent al indian
Outbreak in Montana.


MILES CITY, Mont, Dec. S.-Orders
were received from headquarters in st.
Paul for troops at TT. keogh TO go to
the Cheyenne agency, as the Indians
are dancing in violation of the orders
of the agency and had notified
the agent that they intended
to make an attack. Since the
order of the general land office allow
ing settlers who claimed prior rights
within the reservation to make final
proofs thereon, trouble has been feared
and the Indians have made threats.
Sheriff Jones and O. ii. Thompson re-
turned from the agency last night
with one or two Indians arrest
ed for killing cattle. The other
one managed TO escape. Considerable
difficulty was experienced in making
the capture, as the reds put every OBJ

Bag of Earth from His Own Country
Placed in Dom Pedro's Coffin.
PARIS, Dec. S.-The body of Dom Pc
dro, the eX-emperor of Brazil, who
died Oh Saturday last at the Hotel Bed
ford in this city, was placed yester-
day in the coffin prepared for it
and in which, after the royal
obsequies In this city, it will be con-
veyed to Lisbon and inferred in the
family vault there. One trait Of the
gentle hearted old man who died so
far from the land he ruled over
so long and SO wisely was
his intense love for Brazil. Yesterday
this was exemplified. Servants were
overhauling the effects of Dom
Pedro preparatory to removing
them, when they found in a
chest belonging to the dead ex-
emperor a bag of earth, part OF the soil
of Brazil, which he mad treasured as
one of his most valuable possessions.
1t was known that it was his desire to
sleep his final sleep in Brazilian soil,
and SO the valued earth was
placed in the coffin and the dead ex-
ruler was tenderly and reverently laid
upon it. Thus. in measure, was his
Ott-eXpressed wish cOmplied with

Forty Thousand Cases of the Disease In
Rerlfn.

Berlin, Dec. Am idea of the ex-
tent of the ravages of influenza in this
city may be gathered from an article
which appears in the Mechanism
Wochenschriit. This medical author
ity states that during the past week there
have been 10000 cases of the disease in
Berlin. The death rate here from in
tiuenza is not high, but thirty of the
cases reported have resulted fatally.
The residents of Hamburg have become
almost panic-stricken at he wide prev
alence of the disease in that city. The
epidemic in Hamburg is particularly
virulent in its nature. The statistics
there show that during the past week
the deaths have been go above
the average. This exceedingly heavy
increase in the mortality is
due entirely to influenza and
its attendant complications. The
Medinsch Wochenschrift cites as
a curious feature of the disease in
France the fact that in some parts of
that country the schools and barracks
are exempt from the ravages of intiu-
on1a, while private houses are filled
with the infection.

PRAYERS for Rain.

l have heard my father say that in
the days of his early manhood. which
dates lack TO more than century, in
season of protraCted drought it was
custom for the deacCns of the church
situated in the old town Of East Wind
sor to call together the members on a
week day and put up petitions for rain.
And he has assured me that these meet
ings were always followed by rain. He
failed TO tell me just how soon Among
those always in attendance was man
of the name of Potwine, one wonder
fully giftedfn prayer. My father called
to mind some of the piouS mans earnest
expressions, such as "Send down the
rain. O Lord, not in torrents but in Gu
pious sic illusions On an occasion Of
extraordinary and prolonged drought he
put his petitions nearly in the form OF
demand. Rain they must have, rain
they would have, and they could not do
without it Realizing that he had gone
too far in that direction, be qualified
his demands by saying, 40 Lord, we do

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?

Dir. A. Mcdowell, general mana-
ger OF the knitting mills, showed
Us some very interesting letters a
few days ago. they were from
purchasers Of goods from these
mills and came from various points
outside of North Carolina.
A letter from Boiling Green, Ken
lucky, especially impressed Us, 1t
was dated about % days after
goods had been shipped from Scot
laud Neck to that polnt, and the
body Of the letter read about as fol-
lows: "Have waited for the goods
until ! do not want them. When
they arrive | shall hold them sub
ject TO your order"
Another said: "Have lost most Of
my spring trade in hosiery by wait
ing for your goods"
There were other letters bearing
like complaints.
Mr.. Mcdowell showed US the dates
of shipment and they were all ship
ped IN time to have reached their
destination early enough had they
been frelghted through properly.
Now, there is a very grave wrong
with some one, and manlfestly 1t is
with the railroads. Here is a new
enterprise which has been organic
ed aud set gong by even sacrifices
on the part of citizens of the COM
munity in their great desire to i'm
prove their town. And thus far it
has been bidding fair to do well
But here is great impeachment
placed in its way at the outset. A
few weeks hence when the travel
ling salesman for these mills shall
make his rounds, he will be met by
the very men whose trade he
thought he had secured, with the
objection that they can not get
their goods i'll time for the season S
trade.
They will say, ''TelI, Sir, we like
your goods and wish We could han
die them, but we can not afford to
miss half our trade by having to
wait on your railroads tor the ship
ments."
And thus it stands: Here is an
industry set going by the energies
and sacrifices of the good people o!
Scotland Neck It promises well!
The goods are first class. The PEG
pie want them; but because the
railroad companies will not proper
Is attend TO the transportation OF
the goods, the enterprise must be
crippled in It's very infancy.
We have been taught to look up
on the railroad as a promoter oil
prosperity and an encourager OF
enterprises, but this does not look
like it.
1t is great wrong and we look
for relief from some source. Viii

WHY SEND MONEY AWAY

1t has been the policy of this pa
per under its present management
to encourage everything that tends
to build up Scotland Neck. And
we are glad to say we have found
many things to encourage.
On the other hand we deem it
our duty to discourage everythin q
that tends to break down the pros
perlty of Scotland Neck.
We are glad to observe that we
have found many things of bust.
ness and enterprise to encourage
for the prosperity of the town, and
but few things to discourage as
initiating against the prosperity of
the town.
Occasionally, however, our good
people make q mistake. For in
stance, it is mistake to send to
Richmond, Baltimore, New York
or anywhere else to buy for SIS
what You can buy at home for
$500. The people of these cities
pay no taxes to keep up Scotland
Neck. They expend no money in
paying our preachers. They con-
tribute nothing directly for ON
schools. The pushing business
men here bear all these expenses
We have good stores here and il
the goods desired can not be found
in stock, any merchant will gladly
order what you want for the same
profit he makes on his other goods
We have fine millinery store
| here, and if you can't find the hat
or the ribbon here that you want
your milllner will order for YOU
what you desire.
Ladies make mistakes in order
ing little bundles from home wher
they can purchase as we'll here.
| Gentlemen make like mistakes
sometimes. Absolute unity of pur
pose to make home prosperous il
the only thing that will do it. The
men who take care of the town
augbt to have your trade.
