Few Know About the Shakers.
AN INTERESTING, GOD-FEARTNG
PEOPLE WHO HAVE GIVEN
TIE WORLD MANY I'M
PORTANT DISCOVERIES.

We may not accept their peculiar religi-
Gus beliefs nor can we enter into the spirit
of their sacrifices. 1t is not necessary to
believe as they do, but we can and do re-
spect their sincerity of purpose and the
honor and uprightness which marks all
their business dealings.
The Shakers have always been successful
inventors and some of the greatest of the
conveniences of the present day found
origin in their settlements.
In one particular they excel all other men
or classes of men, and that is in the cultiva-
ton of medicinal herbs and plants and
their preparation for use. They have made
it a study for more than a hundred years.
1t is one of their peculiar industries. Their
lives have been devoted to it.
Their latest and greatest achievement is
the Shaker Digestive Cordial 1t Is not of
fered as a cure for all diseases. 1t does not
pretend to be, but one disease it will cure
and that is indigestion.
1t is so effective in curing those who use
the remedy that they are loud in their
praises of it, and in consequence a large de-
mand for the cordial has been created.
/. Sufferers who resort TO its use have not
long to wait to see the result. The effect is
almost immediate. The first dose usually
gives relief, and If continued permanent
cure viii follow.
1t not only contains already digested
food but it digests food as well, thus tOnlng
up the general system. An interesting
pamphlet is now being issued by the Shakers
ana can be had for the asking at almost any
drug store.

HOW MRS. KING DIED.
Baptist Missionary ssFannie T..
Knightr, Catches Small Pox, and
Dies on Her Wedding Trip.

Baptist Missionary ''Fannie f..
Knight", Catches Small Pox. and
Dies on Her Wedding Trip.
On May Both miss Fannie E Knight
who for some years has been missionary
to China, died of small pox at Tai Au,
China.
The circumstances of her death, con-
tanned in letter from Miss Emma Hum
phries to Rev. r. J. Patton, of Nor
canton, are peculiarly sad. The letter is
now in the hands Of the editor of the
Biblical Recorder and will be published
to-day.
About April the first Miss knight,
who was about thirty years of age, was
married to Mr.. King, a Georgian, now
in China Early in May Miss HUMPHREYS,
in company with Mr.. and Mrs. King, left
Yang Chow for Tai Au, about four hun
dred miles distant. The first two hun
dred miles were traversed in ''house-
boat and the other half of the distance
by wheelbarrow. Soon after the arrival
of the party at their destination, on May
22nd, Mrs. King was taken i'll. She
grew worse rapidly, and with no physi-
clan, for DR.. Royal, the mission doctor,
was eighty miles away, her condition
grew serious. The doctor finally arrived
and pronounced the case small pox. On
May the thirtieth the newly made bride
died.
"And so,' writes Miss HUMPHREYS,
1--WE laid Miss Fanny to rest on May 31st
under the great Tian Shan Mountain"

TIE HAWKINS CASE.
The Hawkins Will Case Popped Into
Public Notice gain Yesterday.

Public Notice Again Yesterday.
Some time ago Clerk of the Court Dan
Young made ruling to require the de-
PENDANTS in the case Of the dissent of
Mrs. Hawkins from the will of her bus
band, to make more specified answers.
The defendants then appealed from this
ruling to Judge Robinson. The argu-
ment was heard in chambers at Colds
boro and the Judge modified Clerk
Young's decision. From his decision
the defendants appealed to the Supreme
Court.
Yesterday the counsel, Messrs. r. o.
Burton and Spier Whitaker, of Mrs.
Hawkins made motion before Clerk
Young, that whereas the defendants had
appealed to the Supreme Court, to strike
out section TX and all of section VIII of
the answer and ask the relief prayed
for in the pleadings and such other re.
lief as may be proper.
After hearing argument Clerk Young
decided that the defendants had no right
to appeal. This decision, therefore,
left the motion Enacted on. The plain
tiffs then prepared another motion which
will be heard this morning at 10 o'clock.

"HAZY's'' ACT A FAKE.
The Board of Magistrates Decide Th9y
Have no Right to Elect Tax Collec-
tors For Townships.

Soon after the Legislature adjourned,
ii will be remembered that an Act was
discovered which was aimed at Sheriff
Page, and designed to take from him the
lawful emo uments of his office, by Civ
ing the board of magistrates the power
to appoint tax collectors for each town
ship. 1t was stipulated, however, that
the constables of the various townships
should be appointed the tax collectors.
The Act was an absurd and malicious
one throughout, and was sneaked
through by J. Hazy Bagwell, Wakes
''jay" representative. For instance, the
bond required of each collector was only
$500, and in Raleigh township alone the
taxes to be collected amount to upwards
of 100000
Yesterday the magistrates met They
staid in session for few minutes and
then adjourned, having decided that they
had no right either to appoint cotton
weighers or to elect the tax collectors, at
least without acting in conjunction with
the county commissioners at their meet
ing next June.
So this is what came of Hays "stab
in the back" at Sheriff Page.

AGAINST MR.. CHAMBERLAIN.
II. L. Powell Wins His suit--Grew Ont

ofTag Case--A Deal OF Interest.
Squire Whitaker's little Office on Mar
tin street was packed with a perspiring
crowd of interested humanity yesterday
morning. At first sight the case being
tried would seem not to justify so much
interest-iust a private suit for hun
dred dollars. more or less. But the peo-
pie knew or guessed that there was some
thing behind this quiet little suit. SO
they came, and they were not far wrong
Judge Spier Whitaker represented MIR.
Chamberlain and J. @. L. Harris, Esq,
Mr.. Powell. After the hearing of the
case Justice Whitaker gave judgment
against Chamberlain for one hundred
dollars. The defendant appealed.
The story of how Mr. Chamberlain in
Cured this one hundred debt is Of in
terest. Sometime ago the CaraIeigh
Phosphate Company, of which Mr.
Chamberlain is president and manager,
was sued by r. L. Powell for violation
of the fertilizer law in selling twenty
one bags of fertilizer which were untag-
ged, as required by law. The case came
up for hearing several times, but each
time was postponed. Finally a decree
was entered in magistrates court
against Powell, he agreeing to this.
Then up pops Powell with this private
suit. His witnesses yesterday were
Railroad Commissioner Wilson and W..
Fl. Goodwin, who himself has been
connected with some of the suits against
the Phosphate Company. They both
testified to Mr.. Chamberlain having
promised to pay Powell 500 and attor-
ney's fees, $50, if he would agree to al
low Judgment against him to be en-
tered. This would be saving to
Chamberlain, or the Company, of eighty
dollars should judgment have been OBJ
tanned against him, as under the law in
the case of untagged bags, the informant
gets FIVE dollars for each bag, and the
Agricultural Department like amount.
Mr.. Chamberlain, in his testimony
admitted a debt of eighty six dollars, but
denied having promised to pay attorneys
fees. He also testified that he had been
indirectly threatened that if he lost the
tag suit against the company, he would
lose his position, as its president. The
following were the motious and plead
ings in the trial: ''To make the Agricul-
tural Department party''-oVe ruled
for want of consideration.
The defendant pleads that no fact of
plaintiffs claim is due; that said claim Is
based upon no consideration and is
illegal.

Carlisle and Cupid.

New York Morning Advertiser.
When Secretary Carlisle comes to New
York, as he frequently does on these
warm days, his visits are connected, in
the public mind, with National finances
But that is not always the case. The
statesman is deeply perturbed with the
havoc wrought by Cupid within the linn
its of his domestic circle. The member
of his family in whom he takes most
pride is understood to have formed an
attachment which is looked upon with
anything but favor by the paternal eye
1t appears that when Secretary Carlisle
was cooling himself in the moonlight at
the window of a summer resort hotel, he
once had his meditations respecting
bonds rudely interrupted by the sight of
his hope and pride enraptured on the
beach below by the presence of an adOred
object. The adOred is a New York per
sonage of prominence, in spite of very
short mundane existence.
Mr.. Carlisle next morning investigated
the matter very quietly, and made some
surprising discoveries concerning the
strength of hearts devotion. Devel-
opments are awaited by the initiated.
