DEATH OF MISS PEARsALL.

At half-past eleven o'clock on
the night Of April 10th, at her
home in Goldsboro, the spirit Of
Miss Sarah A. Pearsall, returned
to God who gave it. She leaves a
mother, four brothers and two
sisters. The subject of this brief
memoir was in her 23rd year.
She finished the course at the
Goldsboro Graded school, and
after winning scholarship,
spent a successful session at the
Greensboro Normal College. +
ter returning home, she 5
elected a teacher in the 5th gra
Of the school here, i'm which, b.
reason Of failing health, she was
unable to do work more than
four months. She was greatly
beloved by her pupils, as indeed
she was by all who knew her.
She was a noble specimen of
Christian womanhood, enriching,
by her sterling worth, every
sphere of life she entered. She
was a dutiful daughter, an affec-
tionate sister, a sincere friend,
an humble Christian. She united
with the First Baptist church at
the age of sixteen years, and
adorned with beautiful piety, the
religion she professed, leaving
behind her the precious ordor of
many virtues as an JUNCTION Of
comfort to those who mourn her
loss. She was baptized by Rev.
J. S. Dill, now of Richmond.
In her honor. the Graded
School suspended exercises Fri
day and attended the funeral ser
vices at the First Baptist church
at 2 o'clock p. m.

Sells Wonderful Bill.

VI all the extraordinary acts
passed by the recent Reform
Legislature of North Carolina,
the one introduced by Chatham S
distinguished Representative,
Mr.. Self, caps the climax up to
date. 1t is truly wonderful bill
and will attract great attention:
It stands unique and alone, both
as to it's remarkable provisions
and the still more remarkable
language in which they are ex-
pressed, anu will, no doubt, win
for the distinguished statesman
who drew it a national reputa-
ton.
The following is an exact and
literal copy of this extraordinary
law as it is enrolled and filed in
the Office of the Secretary OF
State:
''IHe General assembly Of North
Carolina do enact:
''Section 1. That it shall be
unlawful for any male hog, sheep
or goat, to run at large in the
county of Chatham to greater
age than six months without cas-
tration, unless the same shall
have been turned out for the inn
provement of the stock.
''Sec, 2. That any male cat
tie running to a greater age than
two years, without castration,
shall be contrary to the provis-
ions of this act.
"Sec. 8. That any person
violating this act shall be sub
ject to fine of not less than two
dollars and fifty cents. So so, nor
more than five dollars, S.. Said
fine to go to the school fund OF
the county.
Sec. 4. That this act shall be
in force from and after its rati-
fcation.
This act was ratified on the
End day of February and has beer
in force and effect ever since that
day, and yet the citizens Of Chat
ham have been in blissful ignor
ance of it, and violating it every
day since it's passage, over two
months ago. Mr.. Self surely
ought to have given them some
timely notice of it.
Until our citizens can get the
Supreme Court to construe the
above law, says the Chatham
Record there will exist grea
doubt as to it's meaning. for if i
means what it says las it reads
our good old county will be
depopuIated and there will be NJ
need of providing a school fund
for there will be no children tt
educate!
It will be seen that section
allows certain hogs, sheep ans
goats six months, and section
allows certain cattle two years
but section 8 does not mention
what time is allowed Persons,
and it is left in doubt whethe
they allowed six months like
goats, hogs and sheep. or ar
allowed two years like male cat
tie. IF they are allowed tw'
years, then there is some hope
for them for they may get tht
next Legislature to come to thei
rescue by repeating this wonder
full law!
| It will be noted that section
Idoes not make it unlawful fo
lcertain male cattle to run a
| large, but makes it unlawful fo
them to run at all, so that all Owe
two years old must be killed o
| their legs cut off. And, in sectio,
l3, Mr.. Self should have state
how often whether every day Q
honr) a person may be fined TO
violating this act by running

sure the safety of his patient.
4. A physician is civilly respon-
sible for any injury that may re-
suit to patient under his care,

ment of all his cases an average
amount of skill and care for the
locality in which he resides and
practices, further than this he is
not responsible for results, in the
absence Of an express contract to
cure.

Calculated Power of Lightning.

1t is no doubt interesting to ex-
press the force of a stroke Of light
ming in horse power. During a
recent storm which passed over
Klausthal, Germany, a bolt struck
a wooden column in a dwelling
and in the top Of this column were
two wire nails 5 80 inch diameter.
The electric fluid melted the two
nails instantly. To melt iron in
this short time would be impos-
sible in the largest furnace now
in existence and it could only be
accomplished with the aid OF cleo
ectricity, but a current of 200 am
peres and potential of 10000 volts
would be necessary. This electric
force for one second represents
5000 horse power, but as the light
ming accomplished the melting
In considerably less time, say lilo
Of a second, that the bolt was Of
$4,000 horse power.-Dr. G. Grot-
tewitz, Barmer Zeitung.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

BY local applications as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is on
y one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an intiamed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have rumbling sound or i'm
closed, deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its FORMAL condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrah, which is nothing but
an infiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of deafness caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send
for circulars; free.

A Spirited Horse Race.

Darlington Republican,: Prosper
Merimee, with Il record of 2:24 4,
owned by Mr.. Elisha Nichols, is
making the season in Darlington.
Ivica, also with record of 2:2il
owned by VIM. Dyer, of Lancaster,
is also making the season in Darling
ton with Mr.. p. $. Morgan as mana
ger. The rivalry between the own
ers of these two horses is quite
spirited, and they have been regu-
larly beating each other in the barn
every day for weeks. Finally mat
ters became SO hot that nothing
would satisfy either short of an act
ual race. So match for S25.00 side
single dash, half mile, was agreed
upon.
This race was trotted on our superb
track on Wednesday afternoon mt
O'Clock. The contest was witnessed
by fully 500 people and the excite
ment was intense. On the third at
tempt the horses got away in good
shape, and hot race with the result
in doubt was expected, but at the
first turn Prosper broke, a very un-
usual thing for him to do, and before
he got settled Ivica took the pole
and led by about four lengths. Pros
per squared away and went after him
like a whirlwind, but could not per-
ceptibly reduce the lead. Ivica won
by four or five open lengths in the
fast time of l;1lA. Considerable
money changed hands on the result
There are rumors that another race
between the same horses is being
arranged.
Elisha Nichols drove Prosper and
Crippin drew the reins over Ivica.
Senator Spensley acted us starter
very satisfactorily.

The Death of Nellie Grange.

From the Alta Iowa) Advertiser,
dated May 10, 1895, we CLEAN the fol-
lowing sad intelligence:
Nellie Grange, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. II. Grange was born at
Mineral Point, Wisconsin, February
| 10, 1888, and died in this city Sunday
| morning, May 5, 1895. She was
taken sick last Tuesday morning
with inflammation Of the bowels
which terminated in her death. AL
though young in years she had a
clear apprehension OF the plan of
salvation so that she attained unto
an experience that was definite and
satisfactory. From the first period
| of sickness she did not think she
would recover, and toward the last,
a day or two before her death, she
said to her father, "the doctor said
this morning that | was better, but
I am not, | am going to die" Her
father replied that he thought she
was better but she said, II have been
in great pain and have borne it
patiently" She desired to be alone
with her mother and father that She
might have the pleasure of their
talked freely with her parents, about
/ her prospects saying II am going to
Jesus and to her brother she said
don't cry Rurt, Nellie is going to
Jesus Just before she died she
called her father and said she want
ed to kiss them all goodbye, she
then sang with what little strength
she had, "Shall we Gather at the
River" She passed away in peace,
THE action Of the Stevens Point
school board might be followed
by Others to advantage. AT recent
meeting the board above mentioned
passed resolution to the effect that
the girls who graduate shall appear
on commencement day in dresses OF
eplain white muslin.' and the young
men in plain neat suits, The
board considered this action neces-
sarv in view of the fact that well-to-
do parents constantly vie with one
another to see which can array their
daughters Ill the most attractive
commencement day finery. The
poor students are thus made uncom-
Portable either by the unfovorable
comparison Of their dresses with
those of their classmates or else by
the heavy burden Of expense IN
Cured in providing an elaborate
costume to compete with them.
