Goshen, Va, has this to say on
the subject of rheumatism: Il
take pleasure in recommending
Chamberlain Pain Balm for
rheumatism, as I know from pers

all that is claimed for it. A year

laid up in bed with inflammatory
rheumatism and suffered intense-

the pain and the use of one
bottle completely cured him.

TiIIman a Candidate

Washington, May 27.-Senator
Tillman, of South Carolina, re-
turned this morning after an alb
sence of three weeks. He has
been making speeches in Texas,
Arkansas, Georgia, Florida and
South Carolina, and says: "The
silver sentiment is predominant. -
The South will divide on silver

Gratis declare for gold at Chicago,
the entire South and West will
bolt. It is to be silver or bust.
The border States won't stay in

fork with three prongs. On each
prong is impaled gold bug.
These bugs are labeled Carlisle.

St. Louis.

ST. Louis is as good a place
for holding a convention as any
other i'll the country. In fact, as
St. Louis has just suffered i'm
measurably from a cyclone, or
something of that sort, the
chances are largely against an
other cyclones falling upon that
city at an early date. On the
other hand, it may be said that
it is the unexpected which is ais
ways happening, and that St.
Louis has no mountains to pro-
tect her from violent storms as
the Blue Ridge and other noun
tains protect US here in lower
North Carolina
These remarks are made ap-
propos Of the suggestion that the
Republican National Committee
may raise question as to
whether the Republican National
Convention ought to be called to
meet in ST. Louis or not. We
think there is nothing III the idea
suggested. The following from
the Baltimore Sun takes in the
whole ST. Louis calamity, That
paper says;
.Althougn lasting only half
an hour, it left behiud it wide
spread and terrible evidences of
its destructive power. Many of
the most solid buildings in the
city were blown down Or wrecked
and hundreds Of people are re-
ported to have been killed or in
iured, Some Of the ruins caught
tire after the storm had dohe its
work, aad the danger Of confla
grafton was added TO the general
horror of the situation. The
force of the wind must have been
terrific and its fury truly awful,
to judge from the telegraphic
reports Such a visitation, so
sudden, so dreadful, so over
whelming sweeping out of exist
ence so many lives. and carrying
suffering and loss to SO many
hundreds of human beings, will
excite the deepest compassion
aud S. mpathy. From such a Ca
lamity it is impossible to draw
any practical lesson Of prudence
or warsang, or any suggestion
tor prosection in the future.
"a gainst many Of the disasters
and m sfortunes which come
upon the children of men it is
possible to provide. But tie
wind bloweth wheresoever it
listeth, and against the untam :
able fury of the elements we are
still as helpless as in the infancy
of the race. If any lesson is
taught by such an outburst of
| elemental forces as that at St.
Louis, which swept away the
most solid structures as if they
were houses of cards, it is les
son in humi'ity-in the littleness
of man even in his best estate
before the tremendous manifes-
tations of nature. We have rea-
son to thank Heaven that thus
far. at least, in this latitude we
have been comparatively free
from such terrible visitations.

EDISON'S NEW DISCOVERY
Mrs. Rebecca Comfort Had Live
Frogs in Her Stomach

New York, May 29.-Thomas
A Edison, according to the Elec-
trical Review, just published, has
succeeded in developing new
kind Of electric lamp, or vacuum
tube, by means Of which the
Roentgen of x rays are turned
INTO pure white light. Mr.. Edi
son believes that there are great
possibilities in his discovery and
is now enthusiastically at work
perfecting his apparatus in CONS
mercial form. He expects that
before long he will so develop it
that it may be used with high
ecoEOmy on an ordinary incan-
descent circuit.
Mr.. Edison says that instead
of generating x rays and throws
ing them off into space, he has
turned them into a pure white
light. It seems as if practically
all the electrical energy is trans
formed into light. The light is
pure white, resembling bright
sunlight. It has none of the
moonlight effect.
He can make these new lamps
any size, and the efficiency of the
x ray apparatus used with them
can be made very high. A mum.
Der of these new lamps can be
run in multiple arc He is now
at work on endurance tests of
the bulbs and is working to get
the system into simple commer-
cial form.

ST. Louis. Mo. May 90 -Four
hundred of The Missouri National

force pasrolled the storm-swept
district last night. To-day more
militiamen arc on duty, Orders
have been issued to arrest every
suspicious character. 1t will go
hard with anyone caught in any
act Of vandalism.
A partial resumption of the
street. service has been effected.
The east and West roads, north
of Market Street, are in opera
ton: also the Broadway and
Grand Avenue Line. A partial
restoration Of the electric light
system has been effected. In
quests over the bodies of forty>
two victims were held by Coro
ner Waite and a verdict Of death
from "shock and injuries acci>
dental" was rendered in each
case.
The city is crowded with pers
sons who came from the SUR
rounding country to view the
scene of disaster left by the tor
nado.
Mayor Walbridge, Health Com
missioner Starkoff and Chief of
Police Harrigand, completed a
tour of the devastated streets at
4 o'clock this morning and with
out hisitation placed the property
losses in the city at 500, 200, 900.
This doesn't include the damage
to shipping and not the collateral
loss by suspension of business,
but it is placed upon property
extinguished by the storm. While
these figures are startling they
convey to the outside world a
probable true character of the
disaster in a convincing form.
These losses in seven -tenths OF
the cases are arreparable as they
| fall upon those unable to recoup
themselve.

There is more catarrh in this section

years was supposed to be incurakle.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-

stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment pronouced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca

THE NAME OF MARY.

This is the most FREQ quent name
given TO women. Itis not com-
mon however. nor can it be. We
see it borne by princess and
peasant, by rich and poor. In
Christian lands it is the name of
names. 1t may be pronounced
differently by the respective ma :
tions. but it is the same name
after all. T., English, it is Mary
and May In French it is Marie
and Marion In Italian and Span
ish. it is Maria. They are all but
varying forms Of the SAM name
1t comes from the Hebrew Mi
rian, and means bitter, though
the name is the sweetest of all
names. Below will be found a
beautiful poem on tie name
Mary,-It is a gentle name,
And they alone should bear it
Whose gentle thoughts and kindly
deeds
Proclaim them meet to wear it.
Mary!-the first of whom we read
Is in the sacred word
The blessed virgin, undefiled,
The mother of our Lord
Twas Mary to the Saviour knelt
And washed His feet with tears,
A true repentance then she felt
For sins of other years.
With pity touched, the Saviour said,
Thy sins be all forgiven"
And she, who knelt a sinner, rose
Mary, a child of Heaven
Martha, we learn, remained at home
Troubled with many things"
While Mary ran in haste to meet
Her Lord, the King of Kings.
And He VINO truly read each heart,
Jesus, of her, did say
MARY hath chosen that good part
Which shall not pass away
And when the Lord of Heaven became
The lowly crucified,
Three Marys stood behind the cross
And wept when Jesus died.
Twas Mary sought at early dawn
The tomb from whence He brake
And hers the first recorded name
The risen Saviour spake.
Then Mary, let it be your aim
TO keep these still in view;
And as you bear that gentle name
| Possess their graces too!
Be meek and lowly, pure in heart -
Be every sin abhorred;
| Like Mary choose 1.-The better part,
And early seek the Lord.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
EASTERN GOLDSBORO.

Continuing description of the
suburban communities of Colds
boro, which was begun in these
columns at Il recent date, we come
now to Il district whose people a c
radically different and whose
habits and avocations arc not at all
alike.
This community is known to
people who are acquainted with
Goldsboro us '.Webbtown, and
is counted as the fifth in the num-
Der of fire wards of the city,
Looking West from its principal
street, which is about mile in
length, WITH long rows of single
story cottages clustered on each
side can be seen the many white
marble shafts that jut their heads
out from among the green foliage
in Willow Dale cemetery. And
beyond this at night when the city
is lighted with piercing electric
rays, can be traced the faint ont
lines of the towering spires and
the tall buildings of the city
proper. All around the Southern
and Eastern borders of Webbtown
lie verdant fields of growing crops
and at this season of the year can
be seen large numbers of laborers
of both races and sexes engaged
in cultivating the fields; while in
the distance lies the muddy water
way Of Neuse river, enclosed by a
dense wilderness of tall gum and
cypress trees.
Webbtown is separated from
Goldsboro by a shallow canal, into
which the sewers from the city are
emptied. The inhabitants do not
number as much as one thousand,
but are all thrifty and intelligent
citizens The heads of families
are principally mechanics, who
find employment among the differ
ent iron and woodworking es-
Establishments over in the industrial
part Of the city They have their
residence in Webbtown because of
the cheap rents and its retired To-
cation.
To the casual observer Webb
town would resemble the trading
center and residence location of
some populous rural district. Ex-
cept that the corporate limits. of
Goldsboro extend beyond the boun-
Diary line of this section, it is sepa-
rate and distinct from the city. 1t
has but one grade of society, and
that the best. Its people all know
one another and are sociable,
friendly and closely connected.
They zealously watch and defend
one another's interests. The po-
litical influence and the spirit of
Democracy that pervade the
hearts of those entrusted with the
franchise is the pride of the
"Bloody Fifth
Webbtown has all the modern
city qualifications of electric
lights and water works, and has its
own church edifces. 1t is repre-
sented on the Board of Aldermen,
and has a company of firemen and
a hose reel.
Webbtown is proud of its con-
nection with such progressive
city as Goldsboro and Goldsboro
is proud that it can lay claim to
such a thrifty and industrious COM
munity as Webbtown.
