The Proof of the Pudding is the
Eating Thereof.

We do not mind giving a little ''free
advertising" to man who believes in
the efficacy of printers ink and shows
his faith by his works to the extent
that the gentleman below named does.
The Charlotte Observer says:
The best advertised establishment in
Charlotte is E. NJ. Andrews furniture
house. He probably spends twice as
much money for advertising as any
firm in the city. The question: natu-
rally arises, docs it pay him -
Well, let's see.
Most merchants in Charlotte have
had more or less to say about dull
trade and hard times. To-day Mr..
Andrews is two weeks behind in his
shipping orders. He keeps two wagons
going almost constantly. His shipping
clerk and packers are dilieent, and yet
he finds it impossible to keep up with
his orders. and that, too, at this dull
season of the year. The reporter saw
at his place yesterday orders from
various portions of this State and South
Carolina. His trade includes most of
the territory within 100 miles Of Char
lotte, and frequently he fills orders at
200 to 800 miles distance. Mr.. An
drews has just completed the furnish
ing of Trinity College. at Durham.
He sold large part of the furniture
to the Zinzendorf Hotel. at Winston,
and has furnished several other hotels
in this section.
Now, does advertising pay? Ask a
man who has tried it.

The new play Killarney and the

Burwell Hall on Tuesday evening,
Sept. Goth, is said to be one of the
strongest and best comedy dramas ever
written. 1t is interesting in plot and
action, every part is strong and i'll
capable hands. 1t is not only full OF
pathos and sentiment. but is plentitully
provided with good Irish and German
dialect comedy, and has the endorse
ment of the press and public where it
has been seen up to the present time.
Every Democrat in the county
should take an active interest in this
campaign. If you cannot speak and
work in other ways, you can at least
help by circulating good Democratic
literature. To this end, induce your

cost will be but IS cents, and there /:
no telling the good that may be done.

will present a bold front to the enemy
and strike from the shoulder. IT you
are going to help it in the fight fol

An Unfortunate Affair.

A very unfortunate affair, resulting
i'll the unintentional death of colored
woman, occurred here Saturday night.
Mr.. J. S. Poythress, manager of
Burwell Hall, on going to his room in
the building about 9 O'Clock heard
some one up stars in room on the
third floor. He took his pistol and
went up to investigate. Reaching the
door of an unoccupied room he struck
match to see who was there. In
the room were white man and two
colored women. To scare them he
fired his pistol off, shooting into the
ceiling overhead. One of the women,
named Agnes Aston, aged about ri
years, ran through the door by him
and started down the hall. Mr..
Poythress shot again and being in the
dark did not know how low he was
holding the weapon or that he pointed
in the direction Of any one. Such was
the case, however, and the ball took
effect in the wOman's back and passed
through the liver and intestines. She
went out on the street and told that
she had been shot. Learning this
POythress informed DR.. Arch Cheat
ham that he had done the shooting and
requested him to ascertain the nature
Of the wound and give the woman
such attention as she might need. She
was taken home and examination show
ed that the wound was of dangerous
character, and while everything was
done for her that could be, she died
Sunday afternoon.
1t is very sad and unfortunate
occurrence. Mr.. Poythress is pop
u az young business man. quiet, peacea-
bic and good naturcd, aud was as much
panied and surprised as were his friends
to know that he had hurt any ane.
He has gone, and his whereabouts are
unknown, but it is understood that he
will return and be ready to stand
trial at October court.
The whole thing is to be greatly
deplored, and the man who enticed
this woman to her death, as It proved,
when he had her to meet him in that
room against the known wishes OIL
Poythress who has charge of the entire
upstairs part, is not without censure.
He gives Il poor excuse for a married
white man to be there in dark room
at that hour of the night in company
with a negro woman of lewd char
acter, but out of consideration for
others we do not publish his name,
and leave him with his own conscience
to say whittier or not public opinion
will hold him guiltless for the death of
this woman, and the unfortunate
position in which a fellow man has
been placed.

A SONG OF THE TIMES.

Tell me not in mournful numbers"
Advertising does not pay,
For the man must be a fossil
Who such opinion holds to-day.
Life is real, Life is earnest -
And the man who is truly wise.
Knows full we'll to be successful
He must persistently advertise.
"In the worlds broad field of battle,
In the conflict of real life"
Advertising is the secret
OF success in business strife.
Lives of rich men all remind us,

And by liberal advertising
To the highest summit climb.
