Use q straw For Cola Drinks.

II see," said prominent doctor yester.
day, that lovers Of soda water and iced
drinks have at last found way to partially
overcome the deleterious effects of such
things being suddenly taken into the
stomach on warm day. They are using
straws to drink soda water, and 1t Is good
thing. An overheated person rushing up
to soda water fountain and gulping down
the frtgid connections that they serve there
cannot imagine the harm be Is doing to his
system. The straw method Is q much
slower one, and the liquid gets heated up
TO nearer the temperature Of the stomach
before 1t gets there and 80 does lsss harm"

FROM Senator Tillman's speech
arraigning Mr.. Cleveland and the
opponents of silver and reform: "A
well-informed man Of the naval

that by actual computation there
were 1000 millionaires in America,
whose aggregate wealth averages
SO, 900, 900 apiece. That is $24,
600, 900 owned by 1000 people. He
said it was going to cause trouble.

ing to cause trouble, and deal of

most of them. 1t was obtained by

masses, and there has got to be a

Weather Review for March.

March of 1896, will long be remem-
bered IN this state as cold and very
unpleasant month, although it will be
S en- that the mean temperature OF the
month was only degree below the
normal, and the month, far from being
a stormy one, had many pleasant days,
and the precipitation was fully one
fourth less than the normal.
The idea of unpleasantness came
from the severe cold spell, lasting
whole week, at the beginning of the
month, and the rainy and cold period
at the close of the month. There was
the unusual number of IL entirely
clear days during the month, and but
10 days on which rain fell. The cold
snap began with the last day of Febru-
airy, and continued until the 7th of
March; during this time on different
dates the thermometer touched the
lowest mark of the winter, registering

National Bankruptcy Legislation.

At almost every session of congress
for many years past efforts have been
made to secure the enactment of a
bankruptcy law which would be gener-
al throughout the United States, and
there now appears more than reason
able grounds for the belief that before
adjournment the present congress will
take definite action upon this desira-
BILE now political legislation, which
has always heretofore been switched
onto the side track for the considera-
tom of partisan measures. The SEN
ate judiciary committee has reported
favorably upon the bill and a strong
sentiment is being developed to force
it into consideration.
Next Monday the bill will be report
ed to the senate. AS agreed upon by
the committee, it provides that any
debtor owing 5000 or more may make
a voluntary assignment before any
competent authority of all his property
except that exempt under the law, for
the benefit of his creditors equally.
He is required to file full list of all
his property, exempt or unexempt,
and of his creditors. 1t allows pre-
ferences only to debts due to the United
States, to any state or territory, to
servants or laborers for services per-
formed within one year, and to liens
or membranes on homesteads to the
extent of $1,000. The debtor is allow
ed to file a petition in the United
States district court four months after
making his assignment, asking to be
discharged from his debts, which the
court is authorized to grant, alter
due proceedings for the protection OF
creditors and the observance OF the
law. Especial provision is made to
the effect that this discharge shall not
involve any debt which may have been
created in consequence of dedication
as a public officer or as guardian OF
trustee, or while acting in any judici-
ary character. The law is to remain
in force for two years only. The
district courts are made bankruptcy
courts for the purpose of carrying the
| law into effect.

The Small Farm.

This world is really the best man has
experienced, and it is dead sure thing
that he can't carry any tangible thing
into the next world, therefore, it be-
hooves him to make the most Of this
one-get all the comfort and happiness
possible while he is allowed to remain
here. Now this is good plain doctrine,
easily understood, and if followed to its
natural conclusions would bring the
millennium in short time. And yet,
while these facts are universally recog-
nized, how few there are who profit by
their knowledge of them. Wealth is
not happiness, and it doesn't always
bring comfort. Large possessions
doesn't signify happiness and comfort /;
and the large mortgage, which usually
accompanies the large landed interest,
is far from comforting, and more often
brings hopeless ruin than happiness.
A man with great possessions, may be
both comfortable and happy; but they
must be his, with the privilege of using
them as he sees fit. All the money in
the world wouldn't make man happy
if he couldn't spend it. All the land
in the world wouldn't make man
happy if he couldn't use it or get the
benefit of its use. And this last pro p
osition is as true of the man who owns
16O acres of land and gets the benefit
OF but 10. A man is very foolish to
pay 500 for an article he can get for
$40. Isn't that what the farmer who
owns 160 acres of land and gets the
benefit of 10 acres doing every year?
Well, if that farmer only had the 10
acres to pay taxes on, wouldn't he have
more money to purchase more of the
comforts of life, and be the happier for
it? If happiness and comfort are what
men strive for, it will be found oftener
on the 10 acre farm than on the 100
acre ranch. There are fewer mortgages
on the small farms and humble homes
of the land than upon the more pre-
tentious ones. There is more content
ment, hospitality, sociability, morality
and true nobility in the homes of the
unpretending little farmers" of Amer
lea, than among all the titled gentry
and millionaires in the world. If in
terest on that mortgage is eating up
all you make and the burdens of taxa
ton are causing the gray hairs to come
faster and thicker. it is poor invest
ment. Better take what you can use
10 advantage and let some one else
have the balance. You will live longer
to enjoy that which you can USE

split and broken Republican party,

HAVE THE PEOPLE NO RIGHTS
THAT LAWYERS MUST RESPECT?

In the case of Durham VS.. Jones &
Powell at Durham last week, one of
the attorneys in the case made an as
sault on Mr.. Jones, saying he had
testified falsely.
We do not speak this for the pur-
pose of criticising this particular law
yer, for he did no worse than plenty
Of members Of the profession do every
day. Nor do we speak of it to say that
so far as Mr.. Jones is concerned it
was undeserved. Wherever Mr.. Jones
is known his reputation as an honest
and honorable gentleman is admitted,
and it is gross wrong for the courts
to permit lawyer to say about him
in court what no man says out of
court.
The people are every day growing
more impatient and more indignant
at the treatment honorable and inof-
fensive gentlemen sometimes receive
at the hands of the attorneys. The
bench ought to protect citizens against
insult as well as protect the members
of the bar Both have rights, and the
court ought to see that they are pro
tected alike.

of Sheriff Riggsbee's connection with
the case.
The latter was only on Durham's
bond in the prosecution of the present
suit, and not when he was first arrest
ed, as stated. Another point is that
the jury was drawn by the Clerk of
the Court and not by the sheriff, who
could not do so on account of being
