TERRIBLY INCREASING.
The Authorities of the Board of Health
Gives Some Important Information
About the Present Condition of the


About the Present Condition of the
People.
At no time in the history of New York City
have there been so many deaths from pneu-
monia as now. The official figures show that
nearly twice as many deaths from this cause
are occurring than for the last five years. This
is something terrible.
DIR. John T. Nagle, Registrar of Vital Stats
tics, says that this increase is due to the infiu-
ence OF grip. He says that grip may be called
epidemic just now ana that in the majority
of cases grip is vital, contributing cause to
pneumonia and all dangerous pulmonary
troubles. At this time of the year when we
are changing over from winter to spring, there
is always low order of vitality-a reaction
from the strains of the season. The blood
does not flow so full nor rapidly; the strength
is less. For this reason grip has a much bet
ter chance than at any other season.
This is q time OF year when people need to
be careful, and too much importance cannot
be placed upon keeping the blood warm and
in circulation. You must bring about reac-
ton if you wish TO avoid the pain and dan
gers of these troubles in time. There is but
one way by which a reaction can lie brought
about and that is by the use of pure stiInu-
liant, preferably whisky. But the great diff
Guilty is that there are few whiskies which are
pure. The only really pure and reliable
whisky known 10 the medical profession or
the world is Dutfy's Pure Malt, 1t possesses
qualities known only to itself. 1t will bring
about a reaction and prevent cold, pneumonia
would tail. 1t has saved more lives and re-
lieved more suffering than anything of a SIM
liar nature which was ever known before to
the world.

Why Buried With Head ttthe West

Globe Democrat.
All Christian nations, / be-
lieve, bury their dead with
the head to the west. There
is a "why" for this, just as
there is for every known GUS
tom. As far as I have been
able to ascertain after on ex-
haustiye search Of all thelea-
ding authorities, our present
customs in the burial modes
originated in primitive times
when the people Believed 10
corporal resurrection. They
had an idea that inasmuch
as the star that heralded
Christ's scoming first appeal
edin the east, Judgment day
would be ushered in with the
Lords appearance in t h e
same direction and that when
rising they would be facing
Him whose mission will he
that Of sounding the doom OF
all earthly things.

A Mothers Argument.

"The most-to-be-regretted
act of my life," says q lieuten
ant commander in the navy,
"was a letter which | wrote
home to my mother when a.
bout seventeen years of age.
She always addressed her let
ters to me as my dear boy
I felt at that time / was a
man or very near it, an d
wrote saying that her con-
slant addressing M g q g a
"boy" made me feel displeas-
ed.
II received a letter full Of
reprOaches and tears. A.
mong other things she said:
"You might grow to be as big
as G oliath, as strong as Sam
son, and as wise as solomon;
you might become ruler of a
nation, or emperor Of many
nations, and the world might
revere you and fear you, but
to your devoted mother you
would appear in memory, in
your innocent, unpretentious
unselfconceited, unpampered
babyhood. In those days,
when l washed and dressed
and kissed and worshipped
you, you were my idol. Now
adays youare becoming part
Fof a gross " world, by contact
with it, and | cannot bow
down to you and worship
you. But il there is manhood
and maternal love transmit
ted to. you, you will under
stand that the highest com-
pliment that mother love
can pay you is to call you
my dear boy"

The Currency Matters.

~ WV. ~ >N~'
They seem to be getting
somewhat stirred upat Wash
ington concerning currency
matters, and are considering
plans that ought to have
beeA adopted immediately on
the meeting of Congress, a
month ago. We have lately
referred to proposition to
substitute silver certificates
for small bank notes, etc.;
and Also to the proposition
to have State banks Of issue
with circulation furnished by
the general government.
The Baltimore Srn in addi-
ton says that the first finan-
cial legislation to pass the
House will probably be- Mr..
Carlisle's proposed measure
to coin some Of the silver bull
ior bought under the Sher.
man act. There IS enough of
that silver not represented
by notes to coin $50, 900, 900.
And it is proposed to coin
that at once, and thereby in
crease the resources OF the
treasury by that amount.
All OF the silver purchased
under the Bland bill has al
ready been coined and the
government has made about
$50, 900, 900 in that transnc-
ton. BY Its dealings under
the Sherman law, it has ap-
pnrently also gained about
$50. 900, 900, and the govern
lnent is now driven to the ne,
cessity of using the profit. In
deed we're it not for that part
OF our currency which is has.
ed on silver, where would the
country now he?
But without going into the
silver question, it is appa'
rent that the government
needs to turn quickly one way
or another ID saveitselffrom
serious embarrassment. On
thing is quite certain, no new
bonds will he issued.
Watauga Democrat. [volume] (Boone, Watauga County, N.C.) 1888-current, 1893-09-14

portations have worked won
ders. Silver, iron steel, ETC.,
have fallen greatly in price
ing to our increased met
alliirgical wisdom.
Labor-savinc machinery has
kept it's promise, or more
than kept II. It hae raised
wages and at the same time
40 cheapened manufactures
that a profit is made On sales
at a fraction of the prices Of
twenty years ago. The fall
of price has been still further
forced by the opening up of
new sources of agricultural
production. The cotton faln-
inc during our civil warcaus-
ed Egypt to give increased
attention to the growth of
our staple, and it's growth
has been since extended in In
dia and elsewhere. We no lon
ger have a monopoly of cot
ton, and our excessive pro-
ductiOn has been followed by
an almost ruinous fall Of
price. The building Of rail
roads in India, South Africa,
Australia, Canada and Rus
sia has added to the number
of our competitors. Our po-
sition ia altered. The soil OF
these countries compete with
Ours in the production OF
grain. meat, wool and cot
ton. Russia petroleum and
Australia silver force down
the prices OF American petro-
leum and silver. In view of
these facts it is clear that on
|ly by prudence in production
and a just relief from tariff
taxation can our farming in
terest maintain it's former
prosperity. In proprtion as
Africa is nearer to Western
Europe than are America,
Asia or Australia, competi-
tion will, it is to BE- feared,
become intenser when t h e
fresh soils of Central Africa
and Madagascar begin to
pour their products upon the
worlds market. The future
promises a sustained strug.
gle for which we ought to pre-
pare.

Charlotte Observer: People
who voted for Mr.. Cleveland
in the face of his Cooper Tn.
ion letter to Ellery E. Anders
son, and OF his all the time
record on the currency ques-
ton, and who are now op-
posed to the free coinage Of
silver at a ratio Of 16 to l.
well it would not be civil tJ
say that these people ought
to have their heads bored,
but they should do some
thing for quickening OF their
understanding. Those who
feel that free silver is the on

ted for Mr.. Cleveland at all,

it to be understood that is

tains our theory about. where
it is, and although the letter
is private we take the liberty

Historic Sport Shots.
Elizabeth City Falcon.

The record OF the present
season in sporting at Nag's
Head and its unprecedented
success recalls the authentic
legends of shots and shoot
ing festivals in tbs Alber-
marie section, which are pre-
served in living memory or
handed down by reliable ira
dItion. The first gun t b a t
was ever fred in America at
birls by q white man of the
Anglo Saxon race was fired
on Roanoke Island in 1854
by one of the first discover
els. The gun vas an argue
buse, a gun with a wheel fire.
lock, the most improved fire.
arm at that period. 1t was
slow but sure. The first gun
ner shot into a flock of sea-
gnlls. which he took forwhite
crows, and killed twenty alta
shot. and he considered the
shot ofimportauce enough to
write home to England about
it. That is historical.
The next is reliable tradl-
ton. In the winter of 1915,
Joshua Greecy, our beloved
parent. during IA severe freeze
over OF Albermal'le Sound,
killed and baGged l25 wild
ducks ut one shot, by cutting
d long opening in the sound
bet wecn DillinnICnd's Point
and Bats Grave. The ducks
crowded into the holef0r Wa
ter.
In the fall OF the same year
1915, there was a wager OF a
barbecue, between some eiti-
zens of Edenton and the far
mers of the county Of Chow
an for a comparative squirrel
hunt, the little rodents beng
| very numerous and destruc-
tive to crops. The hunting
party consisted often men,
five on each side, five citizens
and five countrymen. DR..
James Norcom, Of Edenton,
was captain of the Edentoni-
ans, and Joshua S. Creecy
was captain of the county par
ty. Each hunter was allowed
two guns and an attendant,
the attendant to load ard
look out, who carried a no.
tica whistle. The squirrels
were to be scalped and t h e
scalps produced as proofs.
Captain Creecy hunted in the
Drummond's Point woods,
below Summerset and Green
field, and at night he h a d
killed 118 squirrels, of which
he had bagged the scalps.
Captain Norcum killed 10l
sqirrels, of which he had the
sca.ps. He hunted in t h {
"Fonr and Twenty Necks.' y
between Bluff Point and San
dy point. The killing Of 'iheiI
associates ranged under u
hundred each.
The next shot within living
memory was on Roanoke Is
land in 1928, ON Bam's Point
where I--myself-l, killed 2e
seagulls.
The next sport was last wir
ter, in February, when tht
club men at Palmer Islan(
Club killed 800 ducks in ont
