NO LIGHT ON THE MYSTERY.

Mr.. Eddy was found dead in Washing
ton Park last evening, with bullet hole
in his head. The wound was self-inflict-
ed. Nearly three months ago he and
his wife came here, taking rooms at the
Metropole hotel. Two weeks ago Mrs.
Eddy left the city, going to Wisconsin
summer resort. He seemed to take life
easily, having apparently no cares. No
one can tell why he killed himself.

WATER CATS,
Many Sportsmen of the Nile Train Puss
to Become an Expert Fisher.

Many Sportsmen of the Nile Train Pus.
to Become an Expert Fisher.
Though it seems somewhat difficult
to understand how the spOrtsmen OF
the Nile trained their cats not only tc
hunt game, but to retrieve it from the
water, h hunting scenes depicted on
h walls of Thebes afford proof Of the
Egyptian cats service in this re-
spect.
In n of these representations, saws
the Boston Globe, puss is depicted in
the act O. selling a bird that has been
brought down by the marksman in
the boat; while in another scene the
cats are seen in the BOAT ready for their
work.
Thus, it appears, from these ancient
illustrations of field and other sports,
that the Egyptians were able to train
their domestic cats to act in the same
way as II modern ~retrieverdOgs do.
1t is generally supposed hat nothing
will induce a cat to enter water, but
this is clearly a fallacy, like many
other popular notions about the animal
world.
The tiger is an excellent swimmer. as
many have found to their cost: and so
the cat, another member of the tiger
family, can swim equally well if it has
any occasion to exert it's powers. either
in quest of prey Or to effect it's escape
from some enemy.
AS cats are exceedingly fond of fish.
they will often drag them alive out of
their native element whenever they get
the chance.
They have ven been known to help
themselves 0out of aquaria that have
been left uncovered, and on moon
light nights they may be seen watching
for the unwary occupants of a fish
pond, during the spawning season es-
pecially.

DANGER IN PUNGENT DOORS.
Smelling Salts Injurious to the Olfactory
Nerves and q Cause of Deafness.

Smelling Salts Injurious to the Olfactory
Nerves and q Cause of Deafness.
Every one does not know that aro-
matte salts and very strong, pungent
odors are injurious to the nerves of
smell and often produce serious if not
incurable difficulties. 1t is well under
stood, says a writer in the Philadel-
phia Times, that certain scents start
the action of the secretory glands of
the nose and throat, and often the eyes
fill up with tears. Frequent indul-
gence in the use of such perfumes will
soon overtask the secretory organs
and weaken them. Some day the per-
son observes that the hearing is less
acute than usual and the sense of
smell seems defective. This is OF
course accredited to a cold or some
similar cause and but little is thought
of it. After a time the entire head be-
comes affected, hearing and smell are
almost if not entirely lacking, and
there are throat and lung complica-
tons which are likely TO end in chronic,
If not fatal, illness. 1t has taken the
medical world a great many years to
discover that loss of hearing is almost
invariably caused by some disease of
the throat or nose, or both. But very
recent researches in these fields have
demonstrated this fact beyond ques-
ton, and it is now admitted by the
most advanced medical men that, aside
from rupture of the ear drum, there is !
scarcely a symptom of defective hear
ing which is not traceable directly to
the condition of the nose and throat.
In view of the new discoveries ear spe-
cialists are finding their occupations
gone, save rs they make their particu-
lar branch an assistant in further in
vestigatiOn. 1t is said that the use of
smelling salts is one of the most pro-
llfc causes of deafness, operating by
weakening the olfactory nerves, and
through them the auditory system.
All strong or pungent odors should be
avoided as far as possible, especially
those which act upon the secretory
processes, and, as the popular express
sion goes, make the nose run.

WOMEN AS S4OE3LACxS.

They Are Numerous in France and Some
Have Married Rich Customers.
a custom is rapidly gaining ground
IN France, and especially in Toulon
and certain other towns, which. it NAV
safely be prophesied, will not find
much imitation in this country. This
is the employment OF women as street
shOeblacks.
The French women ShOeblacks are
most coquettishly gotten up, and as to
their caps and frills have somewhat
the appearance of hospital nurses, and
1T is surprising that though their occu-
patton is a tolerably dirty one, they al
ways seem clean and tidy; some of
them are doing the polishing in gaunt-
let gloves.
In the towns in which they are en-
ployed they certainly are a success Pc
~cuniarily, especially where English
and American visitors, who generally
seem to treat the whole affair as a
good joke, are numerous.
1t is said hat one reason for the &C.
cupation being a popular one among
women of a certain grade in life is that
many of the fair polishers have mar
ried opulent customers who have been
impressed by their shining qualities.

A Hardy Cactus.

There grows upon the sands of the
Atlantic coast, at least as far north as
the Virginia line, a little cactus with a
pretty yellow flower. 1t fourishes in
the dryest seasons and where nought
but bare sand is visible for many
square yards. The secret of its sturdy
growth amid hard conditions is found,
perhaps, in the character of its roots.
They are long and tough, like Irvine
cords, and, ~radiating in several direc-
tions, they convey to the plant what
ever moisture the ground contains for
yards around. Oddly enough, too, this
cactus, when torn up by the roots and
conveyed north, seems to live on indef-
nitely under entirely new conditions,
its roots cut short, planted in clay soil,
and abundantly watered.

The typewriter girl has undergone a

lovingly into the eyes of her employer
as she rattles off messages of business
to be indited by her. No longer will
her winning ways stir the heart of the
big man she works for.
All this, in the opinion of the New

The progressive business man. locked
up IN the quiet seclusion of his own
room, now says all he has to say in the
receiving horn of a monograph. He
reels Oft his business letters at a rate
that no shorthand girl could follow.
When he has finished he sends the ma
chine into the room occupied by her.
and she lets the words escape only as
fast as she can catch them and lot
them in cold print with the aid of her
typewriter.

Yesterday.
The death of Rev. J. p. Mason, which
occurred yesterday at his home near
Chapel Hill, will cause general regret
throughout this section of the state,
where lie vas widely known and greatly
beloved.
Mr.. Mason has long been prominent
in the Baptist ministry, where he was an
earnest laborer, and as a private citizen
was no less active for the good of his fel-
lows. In his home he was genial and
hospitable, and no strange or beggar
went cmpty-banded from his door.
His health had been delicate for some
time, yet his death was g surprise to most
of his friends. lie was CD years of age,
and had been in the ministry since he
was a young nan. \ widow alone sur
wives him, his children being all dead.
He has also a brother, Mr.. ". &. Mason,
in this county. He will be much missed
by the church and also in the community
where his influence hai been "a power fer
good.
The interment took place II Gay at the
family buryiDg ground near Chapel Hill.

when a gentleman directed my attention to
DIR. Miles New Heart Cure, and said that his
sister, who had been afflicted with heart dis
ease. had been cured by the remedy, and was
again a strong, healthy woman. l purchased

feel a decided Improvement in the circulation
of my blood. When l had taken three doses |
