sey town. as be stood in front OF
LAWYERS Office What he saw was
enough to stagger anyone who was ini-
tiated into the mysteries OF modern
business methods. says the New York
World The grOundglass door was
fairly covered with the names OF hlgh'
sounding corporations, many OF whleh
were fayorably known ia New York
business circles.
Cant make it out, eh?" said the
janitor OF the building, who had no
ticed the surprised look on the man
face. We'll. all these names belong to
manufacturing firms doing business In
New York. AS they are all stock com
panios they have to be Incorporated
Now. according to the laws Of New York
state. every corporation Is pretty well
hampered with red tape, besides being
compelled to pay heavy taxes
New Jersey, taking advantage Of her
proximity to New York, has adopted
very liberal laws In order to induos
manufacturing concerns to settle with
in her jurisdiction. As a natural result
these laws are taken advantage Of BY
many firms who do business in New
York and have their plants located In
various parts of the country. All the
direct letter Of the law requires Of them
after they have become incorporated is
TO have an Office within the state.
a struggling lawyer Is only too glad
to let them put their names on his door
and give them the use OF his Office for
about ten minutes once a year when the
annual meeting of the officers is held
For this service the corporation gener-
ally pays the lawyer SO a month, which
sum is entered In the company's boos2
as Office rent. So you see that II young
lawyer Is fortunate enough TO get sew
eral names on his door he takes in a
nice little sum every year for doing
nothing"

Miss Martha Panseram ia. Narrov
Escape from u Razor.

A razor. young lady and cove
tous man were the cause OF a lot Of ex-
sitement at the Washingtcn house last
oiGAt about 1880 O'Clock. says the Me-
bisska state Journal rhe young
lady was Miss Martha Panze' an. She
was in tho kitchen attending 80 some
domestSc duties. when she heard a rap
on the door She opened it and a man
asked her for a drink OF water She
turned to get 1t for him. The minute
her back was turned he made a spring
and grabbed her by her hair, which she
usually wore braided down her back.
He made one swift stroke v'i'f ra.o.,
but as she turned partly around he on
ly succeeded in cutting lf a few locks.
She screamed and the man ran out o,
the door. AS he an anothe' nan. who
had evidently been watching lie rear
Of the building Joined him and together
they made their escape
A report was sent to the station at
once and sergt Nash was detailed to
lock up the man. He got as good a
description as was obtainable from
boy who saw the men from stable
back Of the hotel and from the young
lady. He arrested a young fellow who
gave his name as William Mccarthy.
He had a razor in his clothing, but
nothing else to show that he may have
been the man who was after Miss
Panpccam's golden locks. The boy
partly identified Mccarthy as the as
sailant.
Miss Panzeram has a beautiful head
OF hair remaining Il is golden brown
in color and reaches to her waist, The
locks which were severed we're found
outside the door. where they we're
dropped by the man.

THE BROTHERHOOD OF ST. AN
DREW.

The city of Raleigh is glad to welcome
within its borders, the council of the
Brotherhood of st. Andrew for the Caro-
linas, which began it's second annual ses-
sion at Christ church last evening. This
is an organization of laymen in the Eps-
copal church for the purpose of aiding IN
the extension of the kingdom of God a
mong men. Beginning in an humble way
in st. James's Parish in Chicago some
ten years ago, it has grown with Won
derful rapidity and its chapters are now
scattered over the land. 1t has become a
power for good in the Episcopal church
and has made manifest what Opportunit-
les are open to laymen in Gods service
by organization and cOnsecrated en-
deavor The people of this city gives the
convention sincere and sympathetic
greeting.

IS EXTRA HAZARD
GUS

If the tourist is unprovided with some
medicinal resources. Changes of tenn
perature, food and water of an unaccus-
tonmed or unwholesome quality. and Il
route that lies in the tropics or other re-
giOns where malaria exists, are each and
all fraught with danger to one who has
been improvident enough to neglect Il
remedial safeguard. The concurrent tes-
timOny of many voyagers by land and
sea establishes the fact that HOstetter's
Stomach Bitters enables those who use
it to encounter hazards of nature referred
to with impunity; and that, as medicine
adapted to sudden and unexpected exig-
encies, it is peculiarly valuable. Disor-
ders of the liver, the bowels and the stom-
ach, fever and ague, rheumatism and ner-
vous ailments, brought on by exposure.
are among the maladies to which emf
grants, travellers and new settlers are
most subject. These and others yield to
the action of the Bitters promptly and
completely. Il

THE PATENT OFFICE TELE'
PHONE FRAUD.

The Supreme court decides that as the
delay in granting the Berlincr patent
das due to the patent office, there
fore the Bell Company's telephone monop-
ly lasts until 1908.
In the history Of the Patent office there
has been nothing SO scandalous. In
April 1877 application was made for the
Berliner patent. Under Bells patent,
granted in 1876, the Bell Company had
been using the identical apparatus COW
cred by the Berliner applications. The
New York Times says:
1.-THE Bell Company had purchased the
rights of Berliner, and when the Bell
patent had but two years more to run
the Patent Office suddenly woke up to the
necessity of action and issued the Ber-
liner patent. That gave the Bell Com
pany control Of the transmitter for seven
teen years more, or until 1908. Had
the application been acted On promptly,
or, to be liberal, say, within three years,
the patent would have issued in 1880,
and would now have expired. The tele-
phone business would be open to every
body.
but the highest court decides that there
was no collision, no undue or improper
influence on the part of the telephone
company, the beneficiary Of the delay.
The Patent Office simply out Of pure
love and affection made the company a
present OF several millions of dollars.
What, is to be done about it? If the
Bell Company's interference suits were
not collusive and obstructive, what limit
is there to the right Of a patentee to
hold up the business OF the office by
such suits%'

Reuben Barbee, who was tried last
January for the murder of Cole and ac-
quilted, was placed behind the bars a
gain yesterday. He seems to have
fondness for Jail life. A bill of indict-
ment was found against him at the jan
uary term for carrying a concealed weap-
on, and he was bound to this term in a
bond of three hundred dollars. When
the case was called Reuben was nowhere
to be found. A capias was. issued for
him, he WIS arrested and put in jail so
that when the court needs him again
there will be no uncertainty as to his
whereabouts.
There was no police court this morning.

MR.. BAILEY REPLIES TO MIR
GLENN.

TO the Editor: Please print in to-mor-
rows News and Observer, as an act of
justice to me, the note marked, which
leave upon this table.
Sincerely,
J. w. BAILEY.
The article, marked in the Recorder,
and referred to above, is as follows:
Rev. r. G. Glenn printed a card in
the Raleigh papers last week stating that
a paragraph which appeared in last
weeks Recorder, contained a statement
which was false. If he had indicated
which of the several statements in the
paragraph he has reference to, we
would, perhaps, be in a better position
to answer him. But as it is, we must
re:terate that he did attend the reception
given in honor of the Capital Club" a
Raleigh institution of dancing, card
playing and liquor drinking, and that by
this he compromised his name as a called
minister of the Gospel; and We desire to
say further that he cannot hope to escape
these main and most important facts by
attempting to make a general and vague
denial Of some possible slight mistake"

lower telephone rentals was pressed by
bills in each House. Two Of the Rail-
road Observation-Disclosures. j. w. and
s. Otho Wilson-went before the COM
mittees and opposed these bills (as we
stated at the time) because they deemed
it reflection on themselves and that the
Commission would give reductions. With
this help, even, the bills were defeated
by the narrow margins Of one majority
in each house. Many members, who
voted to table, have since stated that they
would have voted in favor Of reduction
but for their reliance ON the Commission
to reduce and the statements of the two
Commissioners to the committees.
More than two months have passed
since the legislature adjourned and still
the reduction has not materialized,
though the Governor of the State has
used his best efforts to secure the relief

Why the Commissioners should have so

unknown. One would have thought they
