But the 1Ian Whose Property II IL Wishes
He Had Not Recalled Il.
The mystery that has been surround
ing the identity Of David Draughn has
been solved and in a way that is likely to
give David much trouble. Draughn was
several weeks ago dragged from the rail
road tracks in the south end Of the city
Just in time to save him from being
mangled. 1t was then discovered that
he had been beaten almost TO death. He
was carried to the Grady hospital, and
when he recovered physically IL was
found that his mind was a perfect blank
az to past events-so much so that he
even did not know his own name.
Finally under the care of the surgeons
there came back inklings Of the past, and
one day last week he electrified every
body about the hospital by rushing about
and declaring he had it," He had caught
what he said vas his last name. He was
taken by detectives up into North Caro-
lima, and at Culberson, near Murphy, he
found friends, but he was not Draughn,
at least not there. He had been known
there as DR.. F. D. Heath and had lived
there for several months last summer,
but Heath and Draughn are one and the
same man, aud it developed that under
the former name he has three living
wives. One lives in Salem, No. 2 in
Asheville and No. 8 in Bryson City, Va.
His mother, Mrs. Frank Barr, the wife
of o printer, also lives neal Salem. He
will be prosecuted for bigGmy and is
very sorry hs has found out who he is.

HistorIc Brass Knoeker.

Trifes light as air have interest some
times, and apparently nothing is too
trifing to feed American curiosity. A
new brass knob has just been placed up
on Mr.. Gladstone's front door in Down

done the state much service and had
been grasped by the hands Of a century
of prime ministers, from Pitt upward.
Hearing Of this treasure trove, an en-
terprising and sympathetic antiquary
purchased the discarded knocker for 8
shillings, and it is now upon its way to

The perennial row about the normal
schools has begun at Montpelier, and a
Joint resolution providing for an invest-
cation of these institutions has been
adopted by both houses. 1t is to be re-
GREETED that such action has been taken.
The normal schools are doing good work
and at an expense of but few thou
sand dollars year to the State. One
large school might possibly serve the
purpose better than the three small ones,
but we doubt it. The State now has
nothing invested in buildings, while If
there were one institution at all adequate
to the needs of he State at least $780,
600 would he required at once for the
erection of suitable structures. and the
cost of running the thing would proba-
bly, not fall far short of $4,000 year.
This seems to be good chance for let
ting well enough alone.

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

Complete returns of the elections last
week received at Washington show that
the next house will contain DIS Republi-
cans. lOl Democrats and seven POpulists.
lhe present indications are that the
PopuliSts will hold the balance of power
in the senate, giving the majority to
whichever one of the parties they sup
port, although it is expected that the
four POpulist senators of Nevada and
North Carolina will vote with the Repub-
Leans on organization, giving one more
IA majority.
As the next senate now stands with II
Republicans. the politics of the Utah
senators. who will he elected by the
time the new congress meets, will
cut an important iGure. Another
probability which ARISES i the admission
Of both New MrNitu and Arizona, which
may be accomplished in time so that
four more senators would participate in
the organization of the next senate. 1t
is therefore quite likely that the battle for
the control of the senate will yet be
fought out in Utah, New Mexico and
Arizona next year.
The house will stand as follows

doctors sometimes disagree, and the
verdict of one authority, or "A half dozen,
is not necessarily the verdict of science.
Moreover, "A truth may be too sweeping
" applied. Circumstances and individ-
uals differ, and what will hold good in
one case needs modification in another.
1t seems to the hardened and incredu-
lous that if lite be really so beset with
dangers, it is passing strange that gem
eratiOn after generation should have
lived and thrived in their midst, and this
also without IA knowledge of their eXls-
tence. If our ancestors, knowing moth
ing of these wonderful discoveries of
hidden evil, managed to avoid the pit
fall, why not we? Does mere know
ledge of danger make one more suscep-
tble to Its effects? Where is the wis
dom that should accompany increasing
knowledge? Natural living and conf
dence in nature are the best safeguards
against such evils. Common sense is
the hest of disinfectants and work the
best of remedies.

A FORTUNATE DISCOVERY.
PROF. FARRAND SAID TO HAVE FOUND
A POSITIVE CURE FOR ASTHMA
AND HAY FEVER.


Among the few really eminent botan-
ists of America, Prof. Farrand of Yer
mont easily stands in the front rank and
discovery that he has recently made
will do much to add to his fame In his
journeys to different parts of the country
to gather medicinal herbs. roots and
barks for the leading American and
European pharmacists, he has naturally
spent much time in the Adirondack
regions. that hpalth-giving resort Tor
consumptives, asthmatics. and all suf-
ferers from respiratory diseases Here
hay fever is unknown. asthnatics
breathe freely, and even consum-
sumptives conquer their racking cough
in the bracing forest air
Prof Farrand became impressed with
the idea that the herbs and leaves which
fill the Adirondack air with aromatic
healing could be gathered by him and
sent to the homes of sufferers who can
not afford The time or money to go away.
} His great botanical knowledge ard prac-
teal acquaintance with the medicinal
values of all plants peculiarly fitted him
for his task.
He found a happy combination that
gave the peculiar fragrance of the Adj
rondack woods, and samples were sent
/ to various scientists and leading physi-
clans, the professor calling it the Adj
ron dack Asthma Cure. Seventy-three
per cent of the cases in which it was
used, some of them seemingly hopeless,
reported a cure, while III all the others
great benefit was derived
/ The different herbs and barks that are
used by Prof. Farrand in the Adiron-
dack asthma cure have to be gathered ut
certain seasons of the year, when their
medicinal value is at its height, and he
was able to get but "A limited amount.
As long as this quantity lasts. it is offered
to the public generally V by. the DR.. How

Gov. Waite of Colorado, Populist and
crank, is disgusted because he failed of
reelection and announces his intention
of moving to Chicago, where he thinks
he will find congenial spirits. He ought
to form an agitation partnership with

declared in speech against the town
system of schools, the other day, that if
the system were continued "instead of
cattle, Vermont hills will be swarming

An uNEoRruNArE CAoloe.


Later advices from Montpelier are to
the effect that it. was the red clover which
was selected for the State flower. OF
fifteen thousand women who voted on
the question, nine thousand were in favor
of the clover. Why it should have been
chosen is not easy to see. The individual
heads are not especially beautiful, nor is
it particularly attractive in masses, eX-
cppt perhaps to the thrifty agriculturist.
But, worst of all. it is NOT even "A native
of the State. or of the United States.
Gray. the botani~t puts it down as "ad-
ventive from Europe" What he means
by "adventiye" he explains by saying
that the term isappIicabie to those plants
(which are spontaneous only in cultiva-
ted fields. around dwellings, or in
mauured soil. and which, still directly or
indirectly dependent upon civilized man,
would probably soon disappear if he were
to abandon the country"
The matter Is not of much consequence
anyhow, but it is unfortunate that the
attempt to fix upon Il floral emblem
should have resulted in so lame and inn
potent Il conclusion.
