A Startling
Admission.
In New York City, for five con.
secutive years, the proportion
of Deaths from Consumption
has been three in every
Twenty Persons.

Epidemics of Cholera, Yellow Fever and
rible in their results, occasion wide spread
alarm and receive the most careful consid-
Grafton for their prevention and cure, while
consumption receives scarcely thought,
yet the number of their victims sinks into
insignifcance when compared with those of
consumption. Comparatively few people
know what to do for their loved ones when
they see them gradually lose strength, lose
color, manifest feeble vitality and eniacia-
ton, or develop a cough, with difficult
breathing, or hemorrhage. Cod liver oil
was for long time given in all such cases,
but the poor success attending its use
many practitioners, as well as the public at
large, to place their main reliance in DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It de-
serves early attention and will prove effect
ual not in everycase but III large percentage
of cases, and we believe that fully % per
cent ofall cases of consumption can, iftaken
in the early stages of the disease, be cured
with the Discovery" DR. Pierce does not
ask people to believe until they have in
vestigated for themselves. Apamphlet has
been published having the names, addresses
and photographs of a large number of those
cured of consumption, bronchitis, lingering
coughs, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh and
kindred maladies which will be mailed free
to those sending for it with their name and
address upon a postal card, or you can have
medical treatise, in book form of I6o
pages, mailed to you, on receipt of address
and six cents in stamps. You can then
write those cured and learn their expert
ences.

Amor Makers Object.

Secretary Herbert was visited yesterday
by President Linderman of the Bethlehem
iron works and mis- attorney. 1t is understood,
to protest against the adoption of the recon-
mendation of Chief Constructor Hichborn
that hereafter the armor of vessels built
for the navy be included in the contract for
the ships themselves. The armor makers
object to the change on the ground that the
present system is more economical for the
government and at the same time more ad-
vantageous to them.

Republicans Hanging Back.

The republicans will not attend the con-
vention in any large numbers. The mass Of
that party Is inimical to the conventions
ideas and purposes Even some silver re-
publicans will keep aloof. because they de-
sire to see what their own party will do.
Yet, some will come, their real purpose be-
Ing to show the populists their desire for a
renewal of fusion with them, certainly on
state issues. Butler and Matt see in this
convention good time for the populists and
republicans to rearrange fusion plans. So
the convention not only marks a distinctly
new departure in North Carolina politics,
but will have side issues of much import
ance.
The negroes will not attend in large num-
hers. They are taking no interest in politics.
Their much-talked-of state convention here
last week was practically failure.
The only hope the gold democrats have Is
that by this time next year something may
turn up to check or turn aside the silver tor
rent now sweeping over the state.

AN OREGON PHENOMENON.

Crater Lake Has a Volcano Cone-It Lice
 in the Cascade Mountains and is Mors
 Than 6,000 Feet Above the sea-The
 Water in Some Places is 2,000 Feet
 Deep-Vivid Description of the Lake
 During a Great storm.
 To the efforts of MT. w. G. Steel, Cap- tain Dutton and the Oregon Alpine Club, Oregon is indebted for the natural park known as Crater Lake. This park is situated directly on the summit Of the Cascade mountains, and the crater is about twenty-five miles north of Fort Klamath. By soundings made during the survey the water was found to be 1000 feet deep. The surface of the water is 6,251 feet above the sea level. Wizard island is a volcanic cone within the crater and has an altitude of S25 feet above the water level of the lake. Llao Rock rises perpendicularly above the water 2,010 feet. Heliotrope Station is 1865 feet high. Shagg Rock rises 3, 115 feet, and Dutton Cliff 2,109 feet above the water level of the lake.
 These are some of the mostprominent points. Mount Mclaughlin is near at hand, and rises 9,115 feet above the sea, while the highest point on the bank of the lake is S,376 feet above the ocean. The crater is oblong in shape, and has its direction from northeast to southwest It is six by seven miles in extent, and contains forty-two square miles. or about 900 acres. From the highest point on it's bank to its greatest depth is over 4,00O feet. All the build ings and other structures oe New York and Philadelphia. broken up and thown into it would not fill it. The upper third of Mount Hood, inverted and dropped into it, would not fall below the summit of Dutton Cliff, and would leave great caverns unified. Yet this was once a massive mountain, towering thousands of feet above it's present highest point, and all this mass of matter has been scattered and dissipated by fire. The great fires of Chicago, Boston and Mos COW combined would have been an in- significant glimmer compared with the volumes of flame and steam and stones and molten masses elected from this mighty mountain and scattered for hun dreds of miles about its base.

fatiguing, This passage Is at an angle of thirty to forty degrees, and the per pendieular distance about l,5OO feet The sides of this causeway are Dor dered by volcanic rocks, varying from 100 to 400 feet in height,
 We amused ourselves for time roll ing huge rocks, some of them weighing tons, down this pathway, and were as- tonished by the speed and force they attained, These massive fragments went bounding along with accelerated speed until their velocity would cause them to leap 100 feet into the air and strike near the bottom, after flying through space for 200 yards, when, with a final leap, they would plunge into the water 100 yards from the shore, What a playground for the Mazamas!
 There is no visible inlet or outlet, which, taken in connection with the fact that the precipitation Is sreaper than the evaporation, is evidence of subterranean outlets, which theory is supported by the existence of several streams which spring from the noun tain side.
 In describing visit he had once made alone to the shore of the lake when storm was raging on the heights above, MT. Watson said;- 'These walls seem, at one time, to have been in seni- molten state, when old Vulcan, with the strength which is vouchsafed to him alone, hurled forth his missiles of war, fire and laval throwing rocks of all dimensions with such force as to imbed them in the plastic walls where they still cling, an evidence of volcanic power. Here the maddened flames played, and in liquid flashes shot their fiery tongues heaven wand. Here the awful thunders belched forth their terrors to the wild inhabi- tants of the surrounding regions, while the frightened Indian crouched in fear beneath the shelter of the neighboring mountains and the heavens were dark ened by the storm of ashes and stones, while fiery avalanche of molten matter poured their destructive floods down these devil- possessed heights. Here alone in the loneliest of spots, with the waves flashing madly against the shore surrounded by these fire-begriIned and time-charred battlements of nature, the clouds resting on the summits and shutting me in from all the world alone, where the seethtng fires of he'll seem once to have held high carnival, and, cancer-Nke, to have devoured a mighty mountain, I was seized with a feeling that in this awe-inspiring soll- tude some of the minions of Belzebub might still turk to punish my presump- tion for daring to invade this deserted sanctum of his Satanic majesty"

GRAND OPERA HousE.

One of the largest audiences of the season was present yesterday. At the evening performance the standing room sign was displayed at o'clock and the crowd was so great at o'clock that the sale of tickets was stopped. The opera presented yesterday was Said Pasha" and was the best that has yet been given by the company. The opera was well staged ard the costumes were handsome. The parts were all in capa- ble hands. MT. Smith again made a hit and his excellent voice was heard to good advantage. Frank Wooley made a good "Archey" and was ex- tremely funny. Louis Fitz Roy as the Ragan was excellent and what little work he was called upon to do was done with great credit and that he will be a leading comic opera singer is we'll assured. John F. Dewey and Walter Lombard were also excellent in their respective roles. It is hardly nec- essary to mention that MT. Aborn made a hit as he always does in opera and he was loudly applauded and kept the audience in roars of laughter. Miss Maud D'Arcy as the queen was lovely and her solos were all loudly encored. Miss Bell was also accorded a fiatterlng reception. Miss Cornish received a royal reception.
 The operas to be sung to-day are at the matinee ''Tar and Tartar" and in the evening "Maritana" Matinee to- day. Prices, 10, 20 and 25 cents. Se- c11T-a yi1Ilr eeatS
