THE SENTINEL prints this para

livered at the University Centennial
Wednesday by our townsman, A. II.
Eller, Esq:
"The progress of North Carolina to-
wards this ideal has been slow, but
thank God it has been substantial and
true. If | may point you to the city
of Winston, which Of all of our cities

look upon a scene in which are blend
ed the power of progress and the
poetry of pathos. The old Academy,
once vocal with the light laughter of
youth now surrendered to the manu-
facturer, and the boys and girls play
grounds given over to the printing
house and the church. But away to
the North, the East and the West,
crowning each swelling hilltop, stand
the stately structures OF her public
graded schools, free to all, freest to
the humblest; stretching from the
kindergarten to the University lad
der of learning, leading rising gen.

Purifying Water.
From the New York Ledger.

While the Importance of pure
water is universally admitted. and
ways of obtaining it are said to be
many and certainly are complicated,
it is consolation to fidd some sim
pie formula that will purify ordinary
water, especially in reservoirs and
filtering basins. The preparation is
composed of calcium permanganate,
one part; aluminium sulphate. ten
parts; fine clay, thirty parts. These
are thoroughly mixed and one part
is added to about ten thousand parts
of water. 1t said that even sewer
drainage is almost completely puri-
fed by this mixture. 1t precipitates
all of the impurities and living
organisms, and the clear portion
may be drawn off and used with
perfect safety. This is simple and
surely of great value, especially
where malarial conditions prevail
in water.

HEMWELL ALL RIGHT.
A Report That He Had Escaped From
Prison Erroneous,

1t was reported in Greensboro that
Shemwell, confined in Jail at Charlotte
for the killing Of DR.. Payne, in Lex
ington, had escaped.
His trial comes off at a special term
of Davidson court to be held early
next month and the report created
considerable comment for Il while un-
til it was learned to be untrue, says
the Record.
party who is supposed to know
says it grew out of the fact that Shem-
well had practically been allowed the
freedom of the Jail, a parlor having
been fitted up for his use where he re
ceives and entertains callers, eating at
"a special table and living on the fat Of
the land.
He is of course on excellent terms
with the jailer'S family, and it is
further said that the jailer's daughter
is now on a visit to Mrs. Shemwell, in
Lexington.

Southern Cotton Mills.

Mr. John S. Cohen, Washington
correspondence of the A tlanta Journal,
recently made thorough investiga-
tion of cotton manufacturing in the
South, and has contributed an article
to the Manufacturers Record, en-
bracing the results of that investiga
tion. Mr.. Cohen, in an inspection OF
more than fifty of the largest cotton
mills in the cotton belt and in the
Piedmont section of Georgia, North
and South Carolina, finds that the list
of those not making money, paying
good wages to employees, and de.
claring good dividends to stockholders
could be counted on the fingers of one
hand. With but few exceptions the
Southern cotton mills passed through
the financial depression of .893'94
without trouble, and this, Mr.. Cohen
considers, affords the best of evidence
that cotton manufacturing in the
South is to be permanent element

A SINGULAR TRANSACTION.
Two Bargains Made Between a Man
and His Wife.

A rather unusual transaction that
occurred near Greenville, n. c., has
just come to light. A man and his
wife, who did not get along together
with that matrimonial bliss incident
to a weIl-regulated household agreed
to settle their difference by separation.
At last, the wife, who held the bank
account of the family, offered her hus-
band S400 to leave her and never come
back again, a further condition of the
agreement being that he should have
ii portion Of the household effects.
The husband accepted, took the cash,
and made his departure. After few
days, when he had arranged for a
home elsewhere, he went back after
his furniture.
SECOND TRADE.
BY this time the wife had relentcd
and asked him to return to her. This
he refused to do, and expressed his
determination to stand by his part Of
the agreement. After some entreaty
the wife again brought her cash into
play, and asked on what condition
would he return. He set his price at
$500, which she readily paid, thus
closing the bargain.

AGood Appetite

Always accompanies good health and an
absence of appetite is an indication of some
thing wrong The loss of a rational desire
for when the supply of fuel is cut off the
fire burns low. The system gets into low
state, and is liable to severe attacks of di-
sease. The universal testimony given by
to its great merits in restoring and sharpen
ing the appetite, in promoting healthy ac-
ton of the digestive organs, and as purifier
of the blood, constitutes the strongest re-
commendation that can be urged for any
medicine. Those who have never used
Hoods Sarsaparilla should surely do so this
season.

less. It will not stand within itself, just be-
cause il was planted by our forefsthers. 1t is
for us to till, aud we must do SO, il we ever ex-
pect it to reach that powerful stage that was
intended by the planters. So the citizens do
not only have it in their:hauds to make n Gov
eminent great as they will, but its very sue
cess and stability depend upon IFS citizens.
Objects: What are the objects of Govern
meais They are to have order and liberty
within the Government. Some have treated Of
these separately. but We desire to class them
together aud to treat them jointly.
We do not take 1t, as some have, that the
success of one of these results is the sacrifice OF
the other but that the success Of true liberty
is obtainable only through order.
1t does not rob person of liberty to mako
that person obedient to "law and order"
While the punishment that follows the viola
tion of law may take from him liberty, it
comes not from the law, but from the violation
of law
1t was the violation of law that turned Adam
and Eve out of the Garden of Eden, and so VIC.
lation of law always has or should have its
punishment.
Why has Government these objects? This
question can be answered in a very few words;
viz. to make better citizens out of the ones
governed. Ii is to give rs higher value OF
liberty and deeper love for our Governments.
Love and respect do not come from loose gov
eminent discipline, but from obedience to
the rules or law Of right.
Take parent. for instance. that has govern
ment in his home, the one that enforces his
discipline and holds himself as the higher
power of the family is the one that is loved and
respected the most by the ones under control.
The parent that ell forces his governing power
does so with an eye fixed on the child's future
welfare, and as the child realizes it the love for
that parent increases.
So obedience to Government brings love and
respect for it by its sovereigns and these citi-
zens are always found to be the Liberty low
ing" and the FIRST to defend it, even with their
lives. when it is imperilled by the rebelious.
Forms The forms of Government arc SO well
known that but little is necessary to be said on
this branch of the topic
OF course. to us sSkre is only one form, and
that is the free Government that we love so
well. We have not forgotten the enduring
days that our pilgrim fathers lived. and the
tribulations they experienced to give to us the
form of Government we now enjoy.
We have not forgotten the perils suffered,
the many long, irksome days of want that were
