The members of the Citizens Fire Co.
are ~endeavoring to secure a hook and
ladder wagon and other paraphernalia
for effective work, and to that end the
ladies of the community have kindly
consented to help them to purchase the
same, by holding an oyster supper on
November 2, 8 and 4, at which time all
the delicacies of the season will be dis
peused, including venison, fowl. etc. We
will spare no pains to make this feast one
of the best ever spread for the public,
and hope to receive a liberal patronage
from the sane. 1t is a laudable under
taking, and the public are cordially in
vited to Washington Hall on the above
dates. COMMITTEE.

"Timothy," in his last letter to the
Shepherdstown Independent, says:
Messrs. Burns & ShugerS had
their opening of fall styles on Thurs
day and Friday when the dear ladies
Git b eing for their special benefit)
graced the occasion with their pres
ence and smiles and took in the scene
with feminine ecstacY. Pity a snap
shot was not on hand TO have taken
a picture. 1t would have been rich.
The above firm are young men of
taste and business tact have n of
the finest equipped stores of dry
goods and ladies' furnishing apparel
this side of the large cities, and have
and deserve a large patronage. They
have procured the services Of Miss
Palmer, a winsome young lady, of
Baltimore, to preside in the millinery
department. That's business to have
a sweet, pretty girl as the drawing
card. Even an old fellow would
like to be a looker-on in Venice at
intervals.

$50 five weeks l lived on cold water, SO e

from indigestion.
He could hardly keep anything on his

digestcd and gave him terrible paugs,
This is not an case. Dyspeptics
don't get enough nourishmeut They are
generally thin and weak.
They may eat enough, but they don't digest
enough. Much of what they eat turns into
poison. If this keeps on there's no telling
what disease they may get next.
That's why il is best to take Shaker Diges-

AN OPEN LETTER
To the Democrats and Populists OF
North Carolina.

After your laborious efforts for
twenty wears to open the eyes of the
masses as to the shrewd and I'M
scrupulous designs of the money
barons to subvert your system of free
government and rear upon its ruins
the most cruel and despotic OF all ty-
rannies-a nomied oligarchy-will you
CATER so nearly accomplishing your
mission of reinstating your country to
its normal condition. through injudi-
cious party bias, overthrow all past
effort and allow an interruptions party
to ride into power upon the ruins of
your unreasonable dissensions? God
forbid. Oh, my countrymen, il you
but knew the 1.-THE of the humiliation
and oppression which the conspirators
have in store for you, if they succeed,
you would rend your garments with
the keenest anguish and agree to al
most any compromise amongst your
own people rather than be swallowed
up by an INSCRIPTIONS party. who, II
successful, will hold IN unlimited lease
upon your rights as free-born Ameri-
can citizens. After the ides of Noyem-
Der it will be TOO late to lament your
grievous errors. The great and chiyai-
rous West has nobly responded TO our
efforts for free government, free trade,
and free silver, and vet we like a set
of lunatics are fighting each other upon
the very Threshold of possible des-
tiny, whose magnitude no eye but that
of God can penetrate-Oh, no, my
countrymen, it cannot be that we
should so stultify ourselves as to in
yoke the censure of the historian of
the future as being the most consum-
mate idiots of any age or country. 1t
is lunacy of the most aggravated type
TO pull down the pillars of the temple
to involve all in one common ruin.
Pausel Ponder and pray that God
may avert so terrible a destiny and
that North Carolina, the home OF
Castor, of Graham, of Vance and
Venable, with her past glorious and
imperishable record, may emerge from
her present trials unscathed, and re-
tain her rightful title-"The brightest
gem in the coronal of sovereignties."

MARK is WITH US.

The man with the barrel of money,
i. e., the great Republican manager,
Hon. Mark Hanna, was at the Chat
tawlxa Hotel last evening. In CONVEX
sation with the Journal Mr.. Hanna
intimated that his presence in this
city at the identical time that the
Republican Senator of this State was
here, was purely accidental.
He was asked about the $250,000,
which is said to have been laid aside
to carry North Carolina for Mckinley.
The question was not answered salts
factorily. but he mumbled something
about every man having his price.
While Mr.. Hanna was talking in the
hotel office, the visiting7 Senator was
closeted in No. 10 with prominent
colored man of the town.-Newbern
