The Corset at the Paris Academy

At one OF the late meetings OF the Aca-
denny OF Medicine, long and important
discussion took place on the use OF the
corset OF IFS danger or It's harmlessness,
and the learned assembly expressed itself
highly in its favor.
Ladies' with their refined sense or feel
ing. which guides them In matters ap-
pertaining to beauty, did not wait for
this verdict before making use Of the
corset as an indispensable aid. BY the
use of the corset they have tried to OBJ
tain for themselves that beauty which
has been praised and sung by poets on
all times

A Daniel Come to Raleigh.

Judge Daniel L. Russell's portly form
and white hat were features on Fayette-
vile street yesterday His walk around
town is little in the nature of a process
sion, for ''where he is, there are the
politicians, also.n
But he is not here on matters political;
at least, that's not the immediate cause
of his being here. He came here to
argue the case of the Bank of New Han
over before the Supreme Court.
But, despite his protest, folks will talk
politics to him. Not few, like Tom
B ailey and J. Slogan Harris, quietly in
formed him that he going to be the next
Governor, but be ''puts it from him
gently
eff fusion is arranged Dan Russell
will be Governor" said one straight
Fus;onist" yesterday. But there are
others who say that his utterance re
garding the negro, lise Banquo's ghost,
will not down. And that he can never
get the negro vote, On which the Rephb-
lican party depends for its main sup
port.
A NEWS AND OBSERVER reporter called
at the Park hotel last night to see Judge
Russell. He sent down this note
sPlease excuse me. Am in bed and very
tired, and tongue tied on politics.

A. G.. Eddins Has His Brother and
Cousin Arrested for Slanderins lille
Nife..Wss a Censpiracy.s

Justice Roberts held court in the
mayors office yesterday AFTERNOON. His
office in the Traps building was not large
enough for the crowd that jostled IN
A Islander case was the attraction. Mr..
A. G. Eddins and Mr.. Haywood, his
father-in law, came here, and swore out
a warrant against O. M. Eddins and j.
B. Eidins, charging them with SANDER
ing A. G.. Eddins' wife. j. B. is a. Gs
cous n, and @. NJ. is &. G's own btother.
All the parties involved live some six
teen or eighteen miles from Raleigh, IN
Little River township.
Mrs. N. A. Eddins, who was Miss Ad-
die FL & wood, was the perso1 alleged to
have been slandered.
A large crowd of friends and relatives
of the principals in the case came up
from Little River.
J. P. Eddins, brother Of @. III. and A.
G was first put on the stand and testl-
fed that he had heard certain SANDER
Gus remarks made by G. NJ. about A.
g. Is wife.
Mrs. Eddins was then put in the wit
ness chair. She said that every word OF
O. M. IS remarks was false.
The State there rested its case. AS
the testimony related only to O. M, the
case against J. B. was dismissed.
@. M. Eddins and J. B. Eddins both
swore that they were criminally intimate
with Mrs. Eddins, and had been since
her marriage year ago.
But the Justice believed the evidence
of the woman, who has always borne the
highest character in her neighborhood;
rather than that of the defendants, who
testified TO their own alleged crime.
So he bound @. M. Eddins over to the
Superior Court in bond of $3.50
This SANDER is said, by some of the
people from Little River, to be a con-
spiracy to ruin A. G. Eddins and his
young wife, and cause his father to re-
pudiate him. 1t came out in the testl-
mony that old Mr.. Eddins had given A.
G. the right to use certain amount of
land, mules, etc., to cultivate a full
crop next year. He had not granted
these other boys the same privilege.
And that seems to be at the bottom of
it ALL
The Eddins woman is very petty,
slight young thing, not more than
eighteen years old. The sympathies of
the crowd were all with the girl wife.

An Excellent Road.

Commenting on the NEWS AND Oh.
SERVERS statement that the Raleigh and
CASTOR road ''is in an excellent condi-
ton" the Wilmington Messenger says:
This is good news to many women and
children and other stockholders all along
the ninety eight miles, who have not re
ceived a cent in dividends in nearly
three long years. That road is indeed
an excellent one, with the best of ware
houses and a ballasted road, and heavy
iron rails, and it never fails to make an
excellent showing in earnings It's main
fault is it makes no dividends with its
fine showing aud large net earnings.

Rates--Less Than I-2 Centa Mile.

The Seaboard win next Saturday
and Sunday place the IS rate to At
lanta on sale. This will be done at

passenger rate war.
The Seaboard makes the offer OPEN
ly that it will sell tickets to the At
lanta Exposition, north of Abbeville,
at SIS from any station, no matter how
far up the line from Atlanta that sta
ton may be.
These tickets will be good on spe-
cial dates, which will be properly adj
vertised by theSeaboard.
The first trains came into Atlanta
yesterday on the scheduled rates and
the effect was all that the officials of
the road could have asked. The trains
brought about thousand people to
Atlanta.
Each of the Atlanta specials brought
nine car loads of people. They had
passengers from various stations in
the Carolinas and Virginia.
Capt. b. A. Newland said in talking
to reporter: eve are more than sat
isfied with the result of the first ex-
cursion and will run them just as we
find the demand for them.
"There are plenty of people who
would come to the Exposition if they
could only get lower railroad rates,
and while the railroads have all made
low rates the Seaboard intends tomake
them even lower for those who live
far away"
1t is known that the Seaboard is not
a member of the Southern States Pas
senger Association and the have boIted
the rates that were fixed by the other
lines.
