The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1896-08-19

The editors of the Richmond, Va,
State, having failed to arrive at salts
factory understanding between them
selves as to the policy of the paper on
the money question, have concluded
to run a double-barreled campaign in
the office. The paper will be for both
gold and silver, one column supporting
the existing standard and another col
umn favoring the sixteen to one idea.
This arrangement brings to mind
certain prohibition fight, both for and
against the scheme, that was made by
Georgia newspaper some years ago.
Apropos of the proposal to erect a
statue to Pocahontas III the place of
her death, in London Daily Chronicle
says that her portrait still exists at
Boston hall in Norfolk, the former
seat of the Rolfe family, into which
she married. 1t is by De Passe, and
represents the princess as dark, but
handsome. 1t was painted only a few
weeks before her death. Round the
portrait are the words: ''Matoaka
Rebecka, fila potentis Prince Pow
hatani Imp. Virginiae." On the space
below: ''Matoaka, alias Rebecka,
daughter of the mighty Prince Pow
hatani, Emperour OF Attanough
Komoncl1 Of Virginia; a Christian con-
verted. and married to the Worship
full Mr.. Thoms. Rolf. Aged d. 1916"

Poor Lilentha1 had an even more
tragic experience with his flying ma
chine than the lamented Darius
Greene had with his. The result of all
experiments justifes the belief that
walking will continue to be favorite
means of getting about for a long time
to come.

An Asthma Cure at Last.

Medical science az last reports positive cure
for Asthma in the remarkable Kola plant, a
new botanical discovery found on the Congo
River, West Africa. Its cures arc really mar
velous. Rev. J. i. Combs, of Martinsburg, w.
Va, writes that it cured him of Asthma OF fly
years standing, and Hon. L. g. Clute Of Gree
ley, Iowa. testiies that for three years he had
10 sleep propped up in chair, being unable to
lie down night or day from Asthma. The
Kola Plant cured him at once. To make the
matter sure. these and hundreds of other cures
are sworn TO under oath before notary public.
So great is their faith in it's wonderful curative
powers. the kola Importing Co, l163 Broadway,
New York, is sending out large trial cases of
the kola Compound free to all sufferers from
Asthma. Send them your name and address
on postal card, and they will send you a large
trial case by mail free. 1t costs you nothing,
aud you should surely try it.

spring.

Laftte, with his eyes on the uplifted hand,
stood rooted to his place. But there was a
quick movement on the girls part.
She had thrown herself in front Of the in
tended victim, and the alligator knife in
! Dominique's hand, descending, sheathed itself
! in her bosom.
Without cry, and like Bayou lily whose
stem has been suddenly cut, the white figure
sank into the ooze Of the banquette her spirit
ing blood dying the stuccoed wall.
The old man passed his hand over his start
ing eyes. He did not even stoop to see if the
child of his neighbor and old comrade-in-arms
were dead but, stepping back pace, he drew
a revolver from his belt and placed the muzzle
against his forehead
His body>fell heavily at her feet
The report of the pistol brought voluble,
hurrying crowd in the drowned street, but
there had been no witness of the double
tragedy-which caused extraordinary COM
ment. No one ever knew its meaning.

infant in the cabin on Bayou Desnoyers; Henry
Destran on his deathbed in the old Destrehan
plantation-house-eyen these but dimly sur
missed the truth.
The deaf old cabaret-keeper came out to
watch the removal of the dead bodies, leav-
ing the little room quite empty.
The untasted glass of absinthe on the bar
glowed like huge scintillating opal in the
purple shadows.
A year later, man drifted at nightfall one
day-aione-into cheap pothouse on the out
skirts of Paris. There was an air of decayed
gentility about him. His well-fitting clothes
were shabby. The lining of the topcoat he
carried over his arm was frayed and much
soiled-
His face, covered with stubble of black
beard, was haggard. HIS dark, shifting eyes
had dull, outworn expression.
The hand which he stretched out toward
the little glass pushed toward him by the
gruff, Unlocking proprietor, shook almost as
if with palsy.
He grasped the slender stem eagerly and
raised the glass to his lips, but set it down
again with nauseate shudder and turned
away. . / cannot drink it 10 he muttered,
dropping upon the rude bench outside the
door, and drawing the brim of his hat over
his eyes, as if to shut out something from his

His eyes were glowing: he smiled exult-
antly. And you have done this for me,
Leonie, for me!' he whispered, tenderly,
moving toward her with outstretched arms.

1t was already too late. There was sound
of footsteps above the rush of the rain, and
Dominique Fargo came around the corner-a
large old man, with a swart-bearded face.
His blue cotton shirt-he wore no coat-was
open at the throat, showing his massive chest,
and the unbuttoned sleeves fell away from his
hairy wrists. His deep-sunken eyes were

A SOLDIERS NERVE.
A Startling Incident Showing the PeriIs o

: w.. vi n.~c,,.,,1


The bluff old Major from the Queens army
had listened attentiyely to the campfire tale:
of his companions. He put fresh charge oi
| fragrant tobacco in the veteran pipe that he
had been smoking and the three occupants Oi
the compartment lapsed into expectant silence,
waiting to hear from him.
The bravest man | ever met was not on
the field of battle, !" he began. ''ITe was q
soldier, but / know very little about his mil

bravest man | ever knew think / know what

in India and for months the command had
simply been idling time away We were all
thoroughly tired of a life of routine military
inactivity, and finally party of five of us Sc
cured twO-weeks' leave of absence, which
we proposed to spend in Il hunt for big game.
One of our number was senior regimental
officer, who had been through 10 years service
In India. He had been the guiding spirit of
our expedition. Seated few feet away from
him and to his left was a young Junior COM
pany officer who had but recently Joined his
command. We had been eating fruit, which
was of kind that bears very peculiar scent.
1t is tradition that this native fruit has a
strong attraction for several varieties of venem-
Gus reptiles, which are peculiar to that climate

old regimental officer, looking steadily at the
young Lieutenant to his left. slowly said

stances, when your life depended upon your
cOOlneSS and cOurage?'

caliy at his interrogation, replied
9 Yes, / think / could
Then the time has come when YOU must
be put to the test. Move not a muscle until

Then the bronzed old warrior slowly drew
his pistol from his hostler, and, taking de
lIberate aim, he fired a shot at the very feet of
the man to whom he had addressed his omin-
Gus question. For the space of second we
all sat like statues, then the Colonel, in tone
of relief, exclaimed
It's all right now, boys; I've killed it,
We were all on our feet in an instant.
