REGULAR JOLLY TARS.

NORTH CAROLINA NAVAL MILITIA PROVE
 THEIR ABILITIES.
 WASH INaToN, Sept. 14.-The report of Lieut.. F. H. Tyler, who was ordered by the navy department to attend the evolu- tions of the North Carolina naval militia, indicates the remarkable utility and in- provement of that body. It appears that the battalion needs no drilling on board regular men -of-war. as was required in the case of the reserves of other states, but is competent to use the monitor, Nantucket, which was loaned to the state of North Carolina by the government, without any outside assistance. The vessel was put in commission wholly by the reserve at Wii- mington August 12, and proceeded to piloting the vessel, which was under way part of the time at night. The engineer department overhauled and put the ma chinery ln fair condition, and is especially commended for efficiency. The fire room force were enlisted for the cruise.
 The drills were excellent and the target practice led the inspector to think that the men had been carefully and properly in- structed in all branches. The old monitor was in bad order when turned over to them, but has been thoroughly repaired everywhere except in the turret machinery. This work was done by the miltiamen themselves. When called upon for active service attendance is compulsory. At one time the NeWDerne division was called out and was ready in a few hours with an at- tendance of over 90 per cent. The battalion could be landed in Norfolk for service on fully equipped vessel in about twenty four hours.
 A valuable experience to the militia dur ing the cruise occurred, when. at mid- night, the vessel dropped her anchor about half mile. This kept the crew on deck working, tending ship, etc., until { o'clock in the morning and they had worked all the forenoon getting under way and clearing a foul anchor. The report throughout shows that the North Carolina reserve would be useful in real service.

CRISP IN AUGUSTA.
Speaks to the Largest Audience Ever Assembled There and Breaches
 Democratic Gospel.

AUGUSTA, Ga., Sept. 14.-Speaker Charles Crfsp of the house of representa- tives addressetS one of the largest gather ings tonight tNst has ever listened to 8 speaker in this country. MT. Crisp -1aE. rived in the morning, sand was the guest of Ex Congressman George T. Barnes. Sem ator Patrick Walsh presided at the meet- Ing, and the speaker was introduced by Congressman James c. c. Black. Speaker Crisp said he did not have any set speech, but he wanted to have little talk with lis hearers about the democratic party, the party's interest, what it had done and what it hoped to do. He referred to the existing conditions when the democratic party went into power. He reviewed tue financial legislation of congress, the votes on the silver question, which personally were a disappointment to him, as he al- ways believed in the free and unlimited coinage of both metals.
 On the tariff question he spoke at some length, as this Is the district that Tom populists seek to minimize the importance of tariff reform. He explained the burdens of the Mckinley law, and the benefits of the senate bill, explaining its reductions on the necessaries of life, and giving ob-f iect lessons with samples of woolen clothes. \
 The speaker read from the Record a lists of bills introduced by populist members to print and issue money for- visionary schemes, and suggested that they seek to have passed law making every mans due bill legal tender for public and private debts. It would be much more convenient method of issuing currency, and the notes would be just as valuable as those the pop-s ulists wanted the government to issue. Inl conclusion MT. Crisp said:
 "My friends, cue word in conclusions 2 1 have told you what the democratic party has done. I have shown you that we have made long stride in the direction of tariff reform. have shown you that we have made taxable all the money of the people. have shown you that we have manifested an undying ennity to all trusts opposed to the people. Upon this evidence we build our house and upon it we go to the people. For them we have fought the good fight, to them we have kept faith and of them we have no fear.'
 Throughout his speech there was the closest attention and frequent hearty ap- plause interrupted his remarks
 Senator Walsh and Congressman Black were then given enthusiastic ovations that were notably prolonged.

Hoods Sarsaparilla Perfectly Cures
 We do not need to watch intently to see or hear the victims of catarrh on every hand. The frequent cough, the blowing of the nose, the disagreeable hawking, the foul smell, and other symptoms which betray the presence of this very disagreeable disease, are noticed very gen. eraily. The disease is an inflammation of the mucous membrane. Its direct cause is impure blood. It's cure is Hoods Sarsaparilla.
