ON A MODERN CRUISER.
The old Time Sailor Objects to the Now
 Tangled Notions.

Curiously enough, the old shellbacks in the navy arc down on the Soldiers home They don't want snug harbor." They insist upon staying upon a cruising man. of-war, and when they die they want to be buried at sea. But the officers say that these old sea dogs are very troublesome on a modern cruiser, where everything is diff fercnt from what they were accustomed to when they learned their trade. They ob- ject to the new tangled equipment and the improvements and conyeniences that have been introduced on modern vessels. They object to sitting down at table and eat ing their meals off china plates, with knives and forks, like civilized people, in- stead of taking their rations in little wood en tubs and squatting down on their haunches in the shelter of tho lee gunwale while they cut up their "salt horse" with a jackknife. They object to scrubbing the decks with new fangled rubber arrange ment instead of the old holystone, and re- fuse to obey electric signals because they have been accustomed to hear the officers yell at them from the bridge of the quarter deck.
 Nowadays the galleys on board of men, of-war are capable of cooking fresh bread for the sailors every day, which is a serious grievance to the old fashioned "Jaclie," " who prefers hard tack to raised biscuits and rolls. A large supply of fresh meats is now carried in the patent refrigerators on board all the ships and served to the sail ors, alternating with salt beef and pork, at least once day. This is emphatically objected to by the veterans as an effemi- nate departure from the rations they re- ceived when they were apprenticed in his toric times.
 The sailors of vessel that was recently In Monteyideo and Buenos Ayres were served with tenderloin steaks for several weeks because fresh meat was found to be cheaper than salt pork down in that great cattle country, but after about week a committee from the forecastle waited upon the captain and said they desired tomake complaint about their grub. He much surprised at tho suggestion, because he supposed they were being unusually we'll fed, and remarked that they were receiving the same supplies that were furnished himself and the officers in the wardroom They admitted that this might be true and added that it was exactly what they were "kicking' about The boys didn't like tenderloin steaks; they ''wanted something they could chaw on.

Works in WondrouS Wise at Columbia ill.,
 man Rehashes His Speech.
 Columbia, s. C., July 25.--The state alliance began three days encampment at Trzah today. Marion Butler of North Carolina made the opening speech of the day. He said that the currency question had become so serious that the time had come for the masses to form their new party and fight; that the present leaders were traitors; that the foreign financial policy was revolting; that the time had come to- choose between allegiance to a party and allegiance to the constitutions that Cleveland had acted as a faithless overseer to the peoples farm; that party labels should be wiped out; that he was a populist because he was a democrat. Then he exclaimed dramatically: Would to God we-could call up Andrew Jackson today from his grave to lead these peo- pie against the same enemies he fought and,thought he had crushed, to hurl de- fiance at and crush the gold bugs"
 After dinner Senator rillman addressed about 2500- persons. His speech was a re- production of his speech at the silver convention at Memphis, with very lit- tie new argument. He said the time had come for putting aside the livery of the democratic party. and the coalition of the forces of the south and west to overcome the combined north and east. The demo- cratic platform had been good enough for President Cleveland to be elected on, but not good enough to be carried out
 The result has been that our yardstick which measures values has been cut in half, with the effect of doubling the pur- chasing power of the gold dollar. It takes now twice as much of labor or the products of labor to buy dollar. Every thing has shrunk in value except debts.

Nervousness.

Is only another name for impure blood, for nc person is weak and ner- vous whose blood is perfectly pure.
 When the blood is full of the germs of disease, and lacking in the red cor puseles which give it vitality, when it fails to properly Dourish the organs a and tissues of the body, what can you expect but that tired feeling and ner- vousness?
 Of course Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Catarrh and Rheumatism are uni versally recognized as blood diseases, for which Hoods Sarsaparilla, as the best blood purifier, is everywhere acknowled the greatest remedy.
 Therefore, as Hoods Sarsaparilla cures all blood diseases, it is the best remedy for that condition of the blood which causes Nervousness.
 It is a false idea to think you are curing your nervousness when you are taking a preparation which only ouicts your nerves! It is like trying to 1drown" your sorrows in the flowing bowl. They are sure to return.
 We wish to make most impressive, then, this truism:
 You cannot purify your blood by DEADENING or QUITTING your nerves with opiate, narcotic or nerve com pounds. If you take such articles you are only TRIFLNG with your troubles. There is SURE to be REAc- TON which will leave you worse than you were before.
 Why not then, take the true course, follow the bee line to the state of health, purify your blood and cure your Nervousness by taking

DR.. r. H. Lewis, secretary Of the
North Carolina Beard Of Health, has
prepared and sert out a strong paper
on drinking Water in It's Relation 10
Malarial Diseases"
In the paper Dr. Lewis argues con
vincingly that much and indeed most
Of the malaria that is prevalent in GER
tain parts Of the State j. caused from
the drinking of impure water. A
strong plea is made for the use OF els
terms, and the experience given by
many who have used cisterns is quite
favorable to their use.
DR.. Lewis sent out a number OF cir
cular letters asking of those who had
used clsterns to give him their expe-
rience and whether or not they were
benefited by using cistern water. A
great number answered favorably, and
it seems certainty that malarlal
troubles arise more directly from the
impure water than any other cause.
The subject is one which should en-
gage the attention of physicians espe-
cially and OF all who live in malarial
sections Any one wishing a copy OF
the paper referred to can get it free by
writing to Dr. R. H. Lewis of Raleigh

Chorlotte OJserrer.

The editor of the RepieW Of RerieWs
gives his testimony, based on personal
observation, to the success Of the South
Carolina liquor system. Drunken
ness and disorder" he says, "haye de-
creased to a remarkable extent; and,
whereas, the negro laborer was former
ly accustomed to spend his weeks earn
ings in carousing on Saturday night
and Sunday, he is now spending more
upon his family, or else saving his
money to buy land" These are sub
stantial results, and if the facts justify
the claims and the country is convinced
of them. vide extension of the dis
pensary system may be expected. 1t
appears to admit of no doubt that, fl
nancially, the South Carolina dispen-
sary plan ba. proved a success, though
this is altogether a minor consideration,
the worlds question in connection with
itbeing: is it an effective means Of
dealing with the liquor traffic?

$4,000 justified bond The people of
Charlotte voluntarily made his bond

the Charlotte Observer said next day
The making of bond of S9l 900 in
this city yesterday in the case of an
embezzllng bank cashier for whom a
bond of only $4,000 was needed, was
a regretable occurrence. No matter

and the same punishment, except in q
much larger degree, that is measured
out to the poor white man who steals a

dOminecker chicken. Men who have
boys to raise need to have a care about
how they palliate the crime Of ex-Cash-
Ter Holland, while those who have not
