FAREWELL TO EPlDEMICS.
The x Ray Will Kill Cholera, Typhoid,
Diphtheria. and All Other Germs.

CHICAGO, April l3.-Prof. W. p. Pratt
and Hugh Wightman, the electro-thera-
peutist and the bacteriologist OF the
Bennett Medical College of this city,
claim to have practically proved within
the last week that epidemics will be
impossible in the future. They claim that
hsiat:c cholera is no more TO DE feared
than earnche and that diphtheria, gland
ers and typhoid must all yield to the new
remedy, The Roentgen ray.
The various germs were grown in tubes
ia proper media. Magnetic lines of force
from the Crookes' tube were passed
through them. The application lasted
two hours. The cholera germ appears TO
have been wiped out entirely. The diph-
liberia bacteria have been treated very
tenderly and favorably, but after eight
days have failed to show the slightest
signs OF life. There has been no activity
in the bacteria OF the other classes. aud,
with certain notifications. the doctors
are now ready to announce that the ray,
properly applied, will destroy any form
OF Infectious or contagious germs. This
Ia endorsed by the college faculty.

The secret OF the success Of p. H.
Hanes IL Co. is the uniform excellence
of their brands OF tobacco. They have
maintained this uniformity because
they personally buy the leaf through
Mr.. John w. Hanes, one Of the best
judges of tobacco in America, who has
in mind the different qualities Of to-

The famous brands of this establish
ment are known all over the land, and
stand second to no tobaccos that are
made In America. The monthly ship
ments of +. III Hanes & Co, are the
best evidences of the popularity of
their goods Their shipments during
the month of January exceeded not
only any months shipments made by
this firm, but any ever made during one
month by a North Carolina tobacco

ought not to ssy they had ''lived to see
Winston grow" 1t would be nearer
the truth to say that these gentlemen
have lived to make Winston grow, for
they have been important factors in its
wonderful history in the past twenty
years. The men who have done most
for Winston are the men who have
given employment to the most people
and bought the most of the products
of the farmers. Measured by this test
and it is the tset-Pleasant III and John
w. Hanes have been among it's chief
builders, and, while building up their
own business, have given employment
to so many people and bought so much
tobacco as to increase the population
and the prosperity of the town and
country.
"When / first moved to Winston"
said Mr.. j. III. Hanes to the writer
some weeks ago, II bought a lot on
which to build me home that stood
on the suburbs of the town, paying for
it $500, and that was considered q good
price at that time. Since then the
place has grown so rapidly that my
home has come to be nearly in the
heart of the town, and that land is
worth now $4,000. Recently / have
bought new lot, the site of the burned
Zinzendorf hotel. 1t is considered now
as out of town, but it will not be a
great many years before the land be-
yond II Will all be built up In resi-
dences and my children (if ] do not live
to see IT'D will find the property i'm what
will then be the thickly-built part of
Winston
This casual conversation shows Mr..
Hanes' faith in the future of Winston
1t is not misplaced, and 1t is no rosy
picture. 1t is based upon what the
past has shown, and past, too, that
was less progressive than this decade
The people of Winston and the State
justly regard the immense establish
ment of i. Fl .Hanes e. Co. as large and
successful They so regarded it ten
years ago. But in that ten years, its
growth has been steady, and its success
has added not only to the business sue
cess of its owners, but to the growth
and prosperity of the whole town and
section as well. The two brothers
have shown themselves quite as
capable of successfully managing a
business that turns out in the neigh
borhood of three million pounds Of to-
bacco year as when they began with
making few thousand pounds. The

II. H. and John Hanes have done
proves to me that there is room for
men of executive capacity to build up
fortunes in North Carolina as well as
elsewhere"
Mr.. +. III, Hanes was born at Fulton,
Dayie county, on October 10th, 1s45.
His father was farmer and a tanner
of leather, a man of fine sense and ex-
cellent Judgment. In 1870, Mr.. 2. ii.
Hanes left the farm and moved TO
Mocksville, and with a small capital en-
gagged in the manufacture of tobacco,
He carried on the business there in
modest way, becoming convinced that
there was an opportunity to make il
develop into a large and fourishing
business if it were situated i'm Winston,
where the surroundings and advan-
tages were better. And so in 1873, Mr..
Hanes decided to move his factory to
Winston. He made a proposition to his
brother, Mr.. John w. Hanes. who is
five years his junior, and they began
business in Winston, starting with no
flourish of trumpets, but in a modest

but the best.
Talking not long ago with a promi-
nent citizen of the State, he said:
Whenever i go to Winston and
look at the big tobacco factory of p. H.
Hanes Il Company, covering acres and

financial resources, but these resources
