Alleged F~iIibusters,

Mobile, Ala, May 25,-Sixty
men, reported flibusters that
failed to reach Cuba on the Ber-
muda, arrived here yesterday on
the steamer Clearwater from
Coiba, Honduras. They are very
reticent and very little can be got
ten out of them. They are, how
ever, we'll cared for by Cuban
sympathizers. The brief expla-
nation they give agrees with what
is otherwise known as the Bermu-
da expedition. The Bermuda left
st. John'a river, Florida, April
25, and made a landing near Car
denas in Cuba. After scvera
boat loads of ammunition ano
other material had been pu'
ashore and some of the men also.
Il Spanish gunboat hove in sight
and began firing, and in the ex-
element one of the boats over
turned and a number of the me-
| were drowned.

stantly reading biographies. A
|student of history himsalf, he
loved to see how men made his
tory, and carved out fame and
fortune for themselves. He de-
lighted to trace a great purpose,

someman and then. filing his

a lesson, too. for us,ir this prac-
tice of our lamented friend?
DIR. Prltchard was a Jealous
defender of the sacredness of
the Bib,e. We remember to have
heard him relate in this connec-
ton an interesting incident. He
and Senator Vance met upon a
railroad train bound for Wash
ingtor. After a long and pleas
ant conversation, DR.. Pritchard
remarked: .SenatOr, l have
somewhat against thee" The
latter replied in a light vein that
he w MS unaware that he had done
aught to- offend the clergy. DR..
Pritchard went on to say that
he regretted the Senator'S some>
times giving too humorous d
turn TO solemn Scriptural pas
sages in his speeches in the Sc
ate and upon the hustings. The
manner of the great Commoner
changed instantly. He told OF
his instruction in tne Bible by
his mother and a beloved aunt
when he was a boy; he assured
| his reverend friend of his great
reverence for and his constant
reading of the Scriptures; he
said he often found that by an
apt quotation from them he could
clincn a vital point; aud while
asseyerating that it was always
far from his purpose to bring the
Word of God into contempt, he
said that perhaps he Was some
times to careless in quoting from
it. He brought the converse
ton to a close by remarking tc
DR.. Pritchard, Il thank you. sir
for your reproof."
That GROWING characteristic
of a a great soul, the love o.

prominent in the life of this de-

Newborn Journal: The plan
which has been talked of in ref
ence to consolidating the two
Methodist churches of the city,
Centenary and Hancock Street
under one pastoral charge, instead
of having them distinct organiza-
tons, is now accomplished, Pre-
siding Elder F. D. Swindell, act
ing for Bishop Wilson, having
officially made the necessary trans
fer. BY this movement the Han
cock Street NJ. E.. Church prop
caty passes into possession OF
Centenary NJ. E.. church. The
board of the trustees of the for
mer church passes out of exist
ence by reason of the transfer,
they having no more property to
look after, and the board of stew
ards likewise pass out of existance
by reason of the responsibility fol
the salaries and other expenses Of
Hancock Street church having
been assumed by Centenary
church. Under the new arrang
ment, though they are still two
bodies of worshippers and two
pastors, they still constitute only
one pastorate. Rev. f. A. Bishop
formerly pastor of Centenary, be
comes pastor of both, and Rev.
A. d. Belts, formerly pastor O
Hancock street church, becomes
assistant pastor of both.

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together. and until the last few
years was supposed to be i~ncurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment pronounced it incurable, Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F.. J
Cheney & Co, Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure On the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
on the b.ood and mucous surfaces CT

DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
they admit that there's something wrong
about heir arguments and something
wonderful about the Discovery" 1t
isn't miraculous. It won't cure every
case but it cures a surprisingly large per-
centage of cases even when the patient
is pretty far gone with a bad cough, and
bleeding from the lungs, and reduced al
most to a shadow. Consumption is a
blood disease. The lungs want a fresh
supply of pure rich blood and plenty of
it that is what the Golden Medical Dis
covery" gives them. It is a b~lood-1naker.
1t gives the blood making functions
power to produce a large quantity of the
no%urishing red c~orpuscles which make
healthy Ne.g1ving blood. This stops the
wasting; drives out the impurities; heals
the liberation and begins a rapid build
ing-up process, of solid, substantial flesh
and vital energy.
1t isn't only consumptives who need
the Discovery" 1t cures everyform of
chronic blood-disease and all scrofulous
and er1ptive affections.
Mr.. isaac E. DOWNS. of Spring HaNey, Rock
had suffered from that terrible disease. consufnp-
ton, and heart-disease. Before taking Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery 1 had wasted
away to a skeleton; could not sleep nor rest, and
many times wished to die to be out of my misery.
Step by step, the signs and realities of returning
health slowly but surely developed themselves
scales at Observation-Disclosures, and am
well and strong. The Golden Medical Discov-
cry has also cured my daughter of a very bad
ulcer located on the thigh. After trying almost

THE COURT YARD.
what win our city Fathers Do About

What Will our City Fathers Do About 1t?
At their next regular meeting
the Board of Aldermen of this
city will be asked to lend their
aid in conjunction with the County
Commissioners in fitting up and
making improvements on the court
house square.
When excursionists or travel
ling parties stop in our city for a
few hours we have at present no
place where they can repair to and
spend the time in comfort. The
fact that we have no such place
debars excursion parties and
pleasure-seekers generally from
visiting Goldsboro. 1t Is very
much to be regretted that our
city is so deficient in this respect.
AS a business centre Goldsboro
has a reputation that is not con-
fined to the borders of the State,
but us a city with attractions for
comfort and pleasure seekers 1t
has no place on the traveller
guide.
This iniatory step in this direc-
ton should not fail of the encour-
agcment that the supplying of this
long felt want deserves. The court
house grounds could be made at
tractive. 1t is situated conven-
iently and has the natural mate
rial to recciveand show forth with
beautiful effect sthe artificial
adornments that must be supplied
by the hand of man.
This is something in which all
our citizens are interested.
Our City Fathers could not
cater more wisely to the wishes OF
the populace of G~oldsboro than by
giving this enterprise that the
county has set in motion their rec
ognition. The improvements con-
templatcd have been mentioned IN
these columns before. They would
be neat, but not gaudy, useful as
we'll as decorative, and their cost
would be insignificant compared
to their convenience and attrac-
tiveness. The county furnishes al
equal amount with the city, ant
government of the grounds is left
entirely with the latter.
Nothing could moro enhance thu
attractiveness of our city. ant
when the sun takes its downward
course these hot afternoons ant
casts an inviting shade from TIL
tall oaks in the court yard, and a
the gentle spray and ripple of thu
waters of the contemplated foun-
tains sing sweet lullabies a
eventide no place could be NOR
inviting.

AN IOWA CYCLONE.
Loss of Life and Destruction
of Property.

|
Q Des Moines, Ia, May 25.-The|
most alarming reports are being
received here this morning re
specting the cyclone which
swept oyer Polk, Story and Jas
per counties shortly after mid>
night.
Fourteen persons are reported
killed in the three towns of Val>
eria, Bondurant and Ankeny.
The two latter towns are in this
(Polk) county, while Valera is
in Jasper county, directly east
So far as heard from, Slater is
the only town in Story county
which suffered, but as there is
no means of communication with
that section, there is every prob
ability that the restoration OF
telegraph communication will
bring news of diasters as yet un~
reported. No details have been
received from Slater further than
the bare statement that the
whole town was destroyed. The
same report comes from Polk
City, this county.
LATER-A telephone message
from Berwick says that a cuu-
rier just in says that 81 persons
were killed at Bondurant, five at
Valeria and three at Ankeny.
The situation grows worse as
authentic news comes from the
cyclone district, At Valeria, il
is now known that fifteen per-
sons were killed, the number be-
ing first placed at but five. Most
of those killed were in the depot
of the Chicago Great Western
road. some of them having just
alighted from a train aud others
having taken refuge through the
rain. The depot was literally
blown to pieces. The west bound
passenger train escaped the cy-
clone but a few minutes Had i
remained at the station five min
utes longer, the list of killed
would undouhted haYe numbered
scores.
A dispatch from Santiago, this
county, says the storm was un'
precedented in its fury in tina
section. Three miles west of thu
town a house was lifted bodily
from the earth, carried some dis
lance aud thrown to the ground
a shattered wreck. The entir'
family occupants were killed

from debris-fences, opt>build'
