DANGEROUS STEP.
n Young Man. KHaIf Asleep, Sse1 -
OFF a Moving Train.

1t was learned here Yesterday that
young man who lives near AleNander
name unknown, was hurt at Alexander
Monday night while getting OFF the eN-
cursion train on the return trip from
Knoxville.
The young man was in the car asleep
when Alexander was called out by 4
trainman. \ friend of the young man
went to him and awakened him, remark
ing that they were near home and he
should get ready to leave the train. The
young man Immediately arose and
walked to the platform, and then, appa-
parently still half asleep, stepped off
into the darkness while the train was
still in motion
After the train left Alexander the Young
man who had awakened the sleeper be-
gan looking around for his friend, but
could not find him about the depot
Search was instituted and he was found
beside the track some distance below the
depot at i point nearly opposite the old
county bridge. He was unconscious and
was bleeding from wounds in the head
and neck. He had stepped off the train
and fallen on some of the Jagged rocks
alongside the track. His head was
bruised, his ear cut and his collar had
been cut in two by one of the stones. 1t

THE HEALTH BOARD.
DIR. H. H. ~eaVeB's Opinion osi
yellow Fever Refugees.

The Ashevillc Board of Health VIII
hold its regular weekly meeting this
evening, and it is probable that the
question Of inviting yellow fever refugees
to Asheyille will be fully discussed.
DR.. II. b. Weaver, one of the Health
Board, says he would neither invite
nor quarantine. The doors are open
let the refugees come if they see fit
He does not think the disease could live
here. 1t is possible, he says, that the in
viting OF these people to Ashcvile might
create scare among the many visitors
already here, and if one or two of those
who come here from Florida or Georgia
should die from the disease contracted in
those States it might operate to Ashe-
ville's detriment next season. On the
other hand. if the disease could not de
velop here and those who came should
Ashcville's cap. Personally, lie would
not object to their coming here.

The case OF the National bank of
Springfield, o., VS.. the Asheville Furni-

ment 500, 900 worth of furniture. The

comedian, George Wilson-in white face
comes to the Grand opera house this even
ing. Out of the old rut new path not
troddcn by the multitudcs, into Il new

wonders. In brief, this generation is
ticed and wants to be amused. 1t works
with an intensity never before known
and when the work is done it demands
relaxation. 1t will not be troubled with
much thinking in the process, either. 1t
recognizes the value OF the old comedies,
but prefers something that is funny i'll a
less serious fashion. 1t doesn't want to
help in the work of amusing itself. 1t
prefers to pay its money and see special

Some AftertnouontS,

Now that the ball is over, it may be
pertinent to say that the Asheville boys
could not get used to knoxville's level
ball ground. Probably if they had hauled
a few tons of sand into the field, set out
a few acres of grass, made the outtield
an incline and started a lake in Dick
Weaver's bailiwick, the result would
have been vastly different All these
things seem strange, except to Ashevlle
people who know how the boys play
when on their own grounds. They have
played ball, they can play ball and they
will play ball, and will do SO in the re
return game with the Reds, when the
Highlanders can play on their own
grounds.

10 Worlds Fair Photos for One Dime.

The Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul
Railway has made an arrangement with
a frst-class publishing house to furnish
a series of beautiful Worlds Fair
pictures, of a large size, at the nominal
cost to the purchaser Of only ten cents
for a portfolio of sixteen illustrations.
Nothing SO handsome in reference to
the Worlds Fail has before been pub
lished. The series would be worth at
least twelve dollars if the pictures were
not published in such large quantities,
and We are therefore able to furnish
these works of art for only ten cents.
They will make a handsome holiday
gift.
Hand in your money to the nearest
station ticket agent Of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul Railway and he
will furnish the pictures and tell you
more about the scheme.

Some Business Suggestions.

Does your business pay? Could you
not make it paw better by doing some
advertising in q judicious way?
Some business men are always on the
lookout for new customer and con-
irving ways to please and meet the
wants of old ones. The best and
cheapest method to get new customers
is by advertising in an enterprising
newspaper.
Advertising doesn't sell man s goods,
it only lets the people, the purchasers,
know where to find them. The news
paper that is read by the most people
is the one in which to advertise.
There is great deal in writing an
attractive advertisement. Do you give
your ads. your best attention?
If you expect to DO large business
on the fact that you know so many
people, you will get left. The ones
you don't know are greatly in the ma
iority. How are you to reach them in
the most favorable manner at the least
expense? By placing an attractive adj
vestisement IN the newspaper.
Instances have been cited where
large advertisers have gone under.
This was not the fault of the adver-
Using; but Of the advertiser. A man
can lose money specializing in adver-
Using the same as in wheat. 1t is in
dealing with the article as a staple that
results in sure returns.-Wausau

A Jaw=bOne of Steel.

New York, Dec 24-Two of the best
known surgeons Of New York have just
achieved another victory for science by
supplanting the jaw-bone, which had
been eaten away by a cancer, with
steel. The patient is a Miss Tampney
Of Long Island, and the surgeons are
Dr. McBurney and DR.. Westlake. Miss
Tam pney submitted to the operation to
save herself from lasting disfgure
ment. The entire jawbone on the
lower left side was cut away. This was
done III Roosevelt hospital yesterday in
the presence Of $50 physicians and
surgeons, representing all sections of
the country. After the bone was re-
moved the patients lower jaw, or what
remained of it, was suspended firmly in
proper position by means of a metal
plate, which holds it firmly to the upper
jaw. This is to prevent the distending
Of the muscles, which would naturally
follow an operation.-Sentinel

Christmas Dance.

Pomainville's Hall, Centralia, was
we'll filled with merry people on
Christmas night who delight to pass a
few hours in the fascinating dizzy
whirl. 1t was an occasion upon which
the young people Of our cities, who
have been absent either at work,
attending school or teaching school in
other cities, met to have hearty hand
shake, to talk over the varied happen
lngs since last they were together, and
to have a social big time in general
Gatherings of friends under such
circumstances are always productive Of
much enjoyment and the Christmas
dance was no departure from the rule
About fifty numbers were sold and al
went home tired, but satisfied.

Donated His Extra Mileage

Congressman Lynch opened his heart
last week and generously sent $3.50 to
aid the suffering miners in his district
Mr.. Lynch's mileage, for which ne
argued there was no constitutional or
legal provision, amounted to S446 and he
decided to turn it over to the needy
He thereupon telegraphed the Ashland
Poor Committee as follows: "Of my
extra mileage bill 1 send you $3.50.
suggest a Christmas dinner for poor
families. Send balance to Hurley anc
Spencer" Hurley received $3.50 ano
Spencer $50.

One Hundred twenty-five Dollars.

The firm Of T. w. Kruger & Co. spent
$l25 for advertising in the WooD COUNTY
REPORTER during the year 1898. This is
the largest account we had with any one
firm with whom we do business. 1t is
evident to all those who have watched
the progress of this firm that IN their
Iine-Gents furnishing goods-no other
firm has done the business they have
either. They are liberal advertisers
and get good results. After settlement
we asked Mr.. Kruger if he was satisfied
with our services and he promptly re-
piled that he was. He said they had
received good returns for the invest
ment and was perfectly satisfied.
Judicious advertising will pay any firm
or individual who makes a study of it
as he would his stock in trade To do
business nowadays you must inform
the people of what you have and how
you are selling-then live up to your
promises. The REPORTER is one of the
best mediums in Wood County to reach
all the people.
