Equal to the King.

Frank Redondo and 8 man by the name of Garcia came in Tuesday last with about forty pounds of copper stained quartz which had particles Of pure gold as big as a gnat's eye hang ont like door knobs all over it. The boys claim they have ledge live feet wide of the same stuff located twenty five miles due south of Mohawk station. The ore was examined by Engineer Norton who pronounced 1t eoual to the best ever taken from the King of Arizona. A number of Yuma ,oen went out to the district i'm mediately upon the report of the discovery and if the new find pans az exnected Yuma county will furnish on excellent field for the expenditure of the energy of disappointed Kion- dyke enthusiasts. The tanks in that d;str;ct now contain plenty of water and D expecting can be carried on with comparative aatety.

The strength which comes to us from eating nourishing food is better than stimulation, because it isneW strength.
 The health which belongs to s strong body, well nourished by proper food properly digested), is the only health that is lasting.
 The difference between Shaker Dl- gestive Cordial and other medicines is simply that it helps nature to make strength. It does not profess to cure sickness, except as that sickness Is result of weakness caused by food not properly digested.
 Shaker Digestive Cordial will re- lieve the bangs of indigestion, and make thin, sick, weak people as we'll as if their stomachs had never been out of order.
 It is gentle aid to the digestion ot natures strength-maker, food.

We were twitted and jee-ed at consid-
erablr yesterday about hat remarkable
floating light in the heavens which pass
ed over our city Monday night What
it uas nobody seems to know definite
". but that il was something unusual
is very evident from the interest mani
tested by SO many Of our citizens We
saw il with our two eyes and not
through a glass darkly." Whether it
was a balloon, or an aerial ship SEM
up as an experiment by some ingenious
inventor we know not, but it certainly
was something unusual and out Of the
order Of things that was moving with
such speed among the heavenly bodies
above the earth
Who knows but that its appearance
portends some violent CONFUSION of
atur or tina. il may be the "avant
courier Of the dissolution Of his earth,
as some there are who contend that the
world Will come to an end in this year
Of grace 1897. Should it prove to be the
latter it behOOVeS US all to put u
houses in order and to be ready for the
grand confiagration coming upon US,
a confagration in which steam engines
will be utterly powerless n ineffect-
i've, and hook and ladders Of no ac-
count whatever.
Some people went SO far as to say
yesterday that they heard the tingling
of bells on the air ship.

Protection for Onr Lumbermen.

On the Goth instant a petition, signed
by each Of the mill companies of the
city, and by representatives Of each of
the railroads running out of here, was
sent with a letter Of transmittal to
Senator Marion Butler, of the United
States senate cOmmitte On organization,
adj and expenditures of the exec
utive department.
The letter asked that he use his in
f1uence in support of the petition, which
asked for a duty Of at least 81 on all
importatiOns of lumber to the United
States. His attention was called to the
fact that the material interests of a
very large proportion Of our local pop-
uiation are largely bound up in the
question Of the prosperity of our lum-
Der mills, and the imposing of such a
duty would enc directly and very for
chilly toward the revival Of prosperity
for this section of North Carolina. 1t is
we'll known that this point was strong
ly urged in the senate on Monday. Yes
terday the following letter vas re-
ceived, showing c~onclusively that this
petition was given due weight:
Washington, D.. c., April 1, 1897.
Mr.. Chas. M. Whitlock, Wilmington,
N. c.:
Dear Sir-I am directed by Senator
Butler to say to o in reply to your
favor Of the 3Oth, in which you enclose
petition of lumbermen for duty on lum-
Der, that he will offer the same as a
memorial in the Senate mex Monday.
Tours truly,

Was Lewis the Incendiary?

George Lewis. colored, charged with
forcible trespass on the premises of
MI. Vance Norwood, 308 North Front
street. was given a hearing before JUS
tice r. H. Bunting yesterday. 1t was
shown by the witnesses that Lewis
had been ordered to stay off the prem
Uses but he went back three or four
times and raised a difficulty with a
colored woman employed in the family.
He had threatened her and because
she was afraid Of him she was allowed
to sleep in the dining room. Last
Thursday night fire was set under
meath the dining room near where she
was sleeping. The witnesses were
questioned to implicate Lewis in set
ting fire to the house, but nothing def
mite could be ELECTED in that direction,
though the grounds for suspicion
against him are very strong. Lewis
stated that he was sexton of st.
Stephens A. M. E.. church and was
there at the time the fire occurred.
For going on the premises he was fined
$40 and required to pay costs noun
ing to $50 c. He failed to give bond and
was sent to Jail.
The morning after the fire at Mr..
NorwOod's residence a bottle of kero-
sene Oil was found where it had been
left by the ~incendiary.

Horse Drowned.

"A horse belonging to Oliver Taylor,
the colored drayman, while hitched to
a cart, backed off the wharf into the
river and was drowned yesterday ev-
ening at 6 o'clock, at the woodward at
the foot of Castle street. The dray was
loaded with wood but the wood foated
off when the dray struck the water.
The horse n dray went to the bot
tom in water twenty feet deep and
never came up again. After loading
the dray, a colored boy who is m
ployed as a driver went off a short
distance to watch some boys playing
and when he went back to the wharf he
ran up and frightened the horse, caus-
ing him to back off.

RELIEF FOR FLOOD SUFFERERS:
The Senate Resolution Giving Use of me
Fund for Suppression of Epidemics by
the Marine Hospital Service-The Pres
dents Proposed Message.

Washington, April 6.-President Nc
Kinley may abandon his idea Of send
ing a message to congress tomorrow,
asking for legislation for the relief of
the Mississippi food sufferers. Such ac-
ton, it is thought, is rendered unneceS-
sary by the passage Of the senate yes
terday of the Bate resolution, diverting
for the relief of the God sufferers the
unexpended balance of the appropriation
made from time to time to meet con-
tingencics in connection with cholera
and other epidemics.
Mr.. Mckinley sent for Secretary AL
ger late this afternoon and had a con-
sultation with him on the subject. Since
the senate had already initiated such
legislation as he would propose in his
message, the question was as to
whether action by him was not rem
dered unnecessary. Should he send
a message, it is probable that he will
recommend a specific appropriation,
either of $3.50, 900 or 5000, 600, and it is
possible, in the event he does not send
to congress q formal message, that he
will transmit the information in his
possession.
Senator Bate today, when questioned
on the subject, expressed the opinion
that if his Joint resolution should be-
come a law it would afford all the re-
l1oI mat cOu1u ne oApeCleu run tie
government. He said he had made
investigation and ascertained that this
fund, which had been set apart from
time to time for the suppression of cpl
denies, now amounts to $3.50, 900. This
would be more thar ample for the pur-
pose. The senator also expressed the
opinion that the marine hospital ser
vice having agents, as it has, in all the
principal cities, would be far more eff
Ga;o~% in fhn dict ih,1fion Of tho fund
than could any newly organized serv-
ice. He said he had made sufficient
inquiry to satisfy himself that the res
olution would be received with favor by
the house of representatives and that
TIE marine hospital service would
cheerfully undertake the work if as
signed to it.

The Gospel Meeting Last Night

"A problem that has been %agitating
the churches for some time is how to
reach the masses. Any n who was
present at the open air meeting on the
streets last night would have said the
problem can easily be solved-and that
would be by going where the masses
are, and one of the places where they
are is at Front and Market streets from
8 to 10 D. m. The crowd turned out by
the hundreds to hear the eloquent
preaching of Capt. Leavett last night
very few leaving until the services
closetd at 10 o'clock. At the close of
the meeting quite a number expressed
a desire and determination to lead a
new life.
A number have already come for
ward and subscribed to the fund for
the tent. which will be brought here
as soon as the fund is complete n
which we trust will be very soon, as
these meetings are certainly doing
much good.
A meeting will be held at the same
place tomorrow night.

quite Fictitious. A complete calm is
yer the whole city, although placards
have been posted in many places
