AT THE INSTITUTE.
What the Specialists Are Doing Daily
to Restore health and Strength
to SufFarars

It is an established rule of the Institute that
no incurable diseases are taken. Ifan appli-
cant is found 10 be suffering from true cancer
or tubercular consumption he is frankly told
that he cannot be cured, though much may
be done to allay his sutfeTiugs, but as medi-
cal science has yet failed to discover any cure
for these two dreadful malades, all the pnysi-
clans at the Institute say freely and frankly
that it is beyond human power to remove
these evils. Nevertheless It should not be for
gotten that there are many instances where
mistakes have been made in diagnosing these
diseases, so il is well for all sufferers to apply
FOR help at the Institute.
All the following cases are curable;
Catarrh Of the head, stomach or bladder;
all bronchial diseases: all functional nervous
diseases; st, Nitus dance; hysteria; shaking
palsy; epilepsy; all venereal diseases; all
kinds of blood troubles; ulcers; wastes Of vi
tai forces; rheumatism; gout; eczema; all SKIN
diseases, from whatever cause arising; psor-
tasis; all blood poisoning; variCocele; poison
oak; lost or impaired manhood: spinal trou-
bles; nervous exhaustion and pToStratiOn in
cipient pareSis; all kidney diseases: lumbnco.
sciatiCa; all bladder troubles; dyspepsia; indi-
gestiOn; constipation all Visceral disorders
which are treated by the depurating depart
ment. Special instruments Tor bladder trou-
bles.
There are few of the special diseases in
which exceptionally remarkable cures have
been made by the specialists and it may
! kly be stated that a helping hand is ex-
tended to every patient.

The Quarry Laborers Take on Too fu,h Christ mas and Have General Fight-No
 One Seriously Injured.

It was reported in the city yesterday that fight occurred about Il o'clock between the negroes of the Compton rock quarries and the local negroes and the negroes who work in the Dale quarries.
 According to the report, trouble had been brewing for some time between the laborers in the two quarries, and after taking on a full supply of Christmas the negroes of the Dale quarries armed them- selves with guns, pistols and sticks and marched. thirty strong, against their enemies at Compton, where general fight ensued, resulting in the killing of one negro and the serious wounding of several others
 The State Herald wired it's special cor respondent at Village Springs last night for the particulars, who states the trou- ble was of minor importance. No one was killed, and only few bruised heads are left to tell the tale of how an over dose of Christmas might have terminated had not the whites interfered and put stop to the trouble No further dlsturp- ance is anticiDated.

MANUFACTURERS RECORD.
A Review of Recent Industries in t
 South.

A Review of Recent Industries in the
 South.
 Baltimore, Md, Dec. 26.-The Manufac- turers' Record, in it's weekly review of Southern industrial interests, says that the decision of the navy department to award the contract for the two battle ships to the Newport News Ship Building and Dry Dock company, whose bid was about 20 per cent less than that of the Largest ship building concern in the north. is regarded as a great victory for the industrial interests in the south. The opening on January 1 of a s1,OO0,0 900 hotel just completed at old Point, Va, follow ing so soon after the one recently opened at Richmond, which cost over $1, ,500, 900, emphasizes the growing importance to the south of the winter resort business. The number of northern tourists who now spend the winter in the south is annually increasing, and is a material factor in the growing prosperity of this section.
 Among the industrial enterprises re- ported for the week were the construc- ton of electric light and water plants at Sheffield, Ala, and the proposed expendi- ture of 900 in enlargements; 30,000 spindle cotton mill in the same state; a $34 900 lumber company and a $50,000 min ing company in Arkansas.
 Florida reports a sugar refinery and several large lumber companies; Georgia clothing factory at Gainesville. and large lumber mills in south Georgia; Ken lucky, a chair manufacturing company and celluloid factory; Louisiana, grain elevators at New Orleans, and $50,000 lumber company and a $20, GOO soap com pany; Texas, a large dredging contract for harbor purposes and $25,000 plumb ing manufacturing company; Virginia, a $200.00 gold mining company, and the opening up of several iron mines.

Girls Who Attract Men

The girls who attract the
best men are almost always a
source of surprise to their
feminine friends, who are
often lost in wonder as to why
so many more patent charms
should have been passed over
in such selections, writes Mrs,
Burton Harrison in the an
uary Ladies Home journal
1t is the little mouse of a
woman, the shrieking, shy
creature left in the background
by her bolder sisters, we cor
stantly see brought to the
front by the man who has
won her love. And men pre-
fer to any such coquettish in
vitation as that extended by
Mrs. Bond of the nursery
rhyme to her ducks when de
coying them to come and be
killed, the uncertainty hang
ing around a being to whom
they have to sue.
Every mans ideal of a wife
i mean the normal, honest
citizens Of our Republic, who
looks forward to making of
himself and his line, stones to
support its bulwark--is a girl
who may be pretty, who
might be brilliant, but who
must be good. He also recog-
nizes instinctively that her
grace should not be too costly
to wear every day. That she
shall be cheerful of temper,
inclined to take short views OF
human inhrmity, and sound OF
health, he is apt gravely tc
consider, within himself, as
essential. IfIall those who
before marrying, omitted tc
think about these things hac
done SO, it is possible we
should hear less to day of the
incompatibiIity of man anc
woman.

GOTHAM'S NEW MAYOR.
Elected by the Anti-Tammany
Forces Of New York.
Col. William L. Strongs Successful Career
as Business Man-In Politics He
Has Always Boen Re-
publican.

Col. William L. Strong, the successful
candidate of the Don-pGrtisan, anti
Tammany citizens of New York city
for mayor, is n wealthy business man
and has high reputation for integrity
and ability. Col. Strong is a repuo-
ncan. but was the only member OF that
party on the ticket except the candl-
date for coroner. the others being dem
ocrats. In accepting the nomination
he took his stand sQuarcly on the plat
form of the anti-Tammany people, and
promised, if elected, to administer the
affairs of the city on a non-partlsan
basis.
Col. Strong is a native of Ohio. He
was born in Richland county March -,
1927, and the greater part of his boy
hood was spent in that part OF the
state. When he was sixteen he went
to Wooster, O., and for two years
worked in a retail dry goods house.
Thence he went to Mansfield. in the
same state, and engaged in the same
business. In 1853 he went to New
York and entered the employ of l.. Q.
Wilson & Co., one of the largest dry
goods houses in the city. In the panic
of 1857 the firm suspended, and in 1858
Mr.. Strong went to the dry goods house
of Farnham, Dale &: Co., which was
succeeded by Farnhum, Sutton & Co.,
and afterward by Sutton, Smith " Co.
This last named firm was dissolved in
December. 1869, and in January, 1870,
it was succeeded by the firm OF W. l..
Strong & Co. Mir. Strung's services
with the different firms had been Of
great worth. and his advance was rapid
and well deserved.
While Col. Strong has given the
greater share of his time and care to
the interests of the firm of which he is
the head, he has found time to make
his energy and capital effective in
various other directions. He was for
years a director of the Central national
bank, and for the last seven years he
has been its president. He Is director
in the Erie Railroad company, in the
New York Life Insurance company, in
the Mercantile Trust company, the
Hanover Fire Insurance company and
other corporations. At present he is
the president of the Ohio society and
for many years he was its first vice
president. He is treasurer Of st. Johns
guild and is active in other branches
of charitable work. lie is a member OF
