Rates Firmer But no Near Prospect
of Ease.
London, March 2T.-The money market is
firmer, but there is no near prospect of
ease. The Stock Exchange is stagnant
owing to political uncertainties, and all
around substantial declines are recorded.
There is much anxiety as 10 the settle
ment beginning tomorrow, Spanish As
having fallen per cent. and Brazilian
bonds from 5 TO 6.
Since the last settlement there has been
a decline in many Americans ranging So to
Sc, and Argentines and Chilians have been
sold heavily on the boundary scare. Chi
nese have fallen on the poor subscriptions
to the loan.
Home railway securities show moderate
declines; and all the American Railway
stocks are lower Canadian Pacifics have
fallen SIS points and Grand Trunk Railway
shares range from Il point to S1s points
lower.

a CERTAIN CURE
. FOR
CONSTIPATION.
Regulations as to Diet, Exercis ?,
ETC., as Prescribed by One
of the most Eminent
Physicians.

SConstipation affects mostly those who
are dyspeptic or who sit too much or too
long. 1t cannot be cured by medicines
alone. The following is the prescrip-
ton of leading physician:
Ist. Take on rising a teaspoonful of
Carlsbad Sprudel Salt in glass of wa
ter as hot as you can sip it. Then take
brisk walk out of doors, if you can
if not, keep on yourfeet and move about
indoors. 1.-THE trouble is chronic and
serious, take another dose in from thirty
to sixty minutes. Want at least half an
hour before eating your breakfast.
I'd. Never sit down to read or work
after breakfast until Nature has found
relief. "But haven't time" You will
have time if you rise an hour earlier
than before, and cure is worth that.
sd. Use laxative food-use cruel of
rolled oats and water, no milk and use
HONEY with wheat griddle cakes or with
bread. Never touch toast, or milk ex-
cept in coffee. Don't eat blackberries
or cheese, and never drinktea for break
fast. Use coffee at breakfast, if you can;
if not, hot water. Chew all food thor
oughly and never use a liquid to help
maSucate 1t. Never use acids or sour
fruits, and fruit when cooked is much
easier digested than if uncooked.
4th. Why use Carlsbad Sprudel
Salt? Because, first, there is no reac-
ton to follow it. You know what that
means, if you have taken physics and
found yourself worse off than before,
the second day afterwards; second, be-
cauSe the Genuine Carlsbad SDrudel
Salt aids the stomach as we'll as the
bowels in their functions.
You can take the Carlsbad Sprudel
Salt less and less steadily as you i'm
prove; but never be without a bottle
handy. Be sure TO use only the Genu-
inc Carlsbad Salt, which is obtained
from the celebrated Carlsbad Sprudel
Water, and has the signature of Els
NER & MENDELSoN Co., Sole Agents,
New York, on every bottle.

~ AtO IeaGn
Orchards Foes.
Triton, Ca, March N.-George w.
Haines, w. E. Kay and T. L. Morton of
the Plant System spent yesterday here on
business relative to the change of the rail
road grade through the city and the build
ing of the new union depot. They held
two meetings with the City Council. The
union depot will be located at the intersec-
ton of the Georgia Southern and Florida,
and the Brunswick and Western tracks.
and will occupy all the land west of Cen
trail avenue. 1t will consist of one
story building with commodlously arrang-
ed waiting rooms, express" office, lunch
counter, and union ticket office.
w. M. Scott, the state entomologist, has
been spending a week in Triton and vicin-
lty inspecting the peach orchards to as
certain the exact condition of the scale
and other insect enemies of the peach. Mr..
Scott expects to return soon, as he found
the remedies used for the determination
of disease very imperfectly applied, and
desires to give some practical instruction
to the orchardists here. The peach or
chards are in full bloom and give promise
of full crop, barring frost.

Vases and Other Beautiful Things.

When you are looking for beautiful
Christmas present for some friend 20 into
]. Z. Jackson's and cast your eyes upon
the exquisite vases he is showing. The
"Teplitz Ware vases are as beautiful as
the Royal Worcester, the tracing is very
fine, the decoration is in relief and traced
with pure gold. The shapes are new and
exquisite, and prices reasonable. He has
"Wedgewood" vases, delicately tinted and
ornamented with Cameo style figures.
This ware is very artistic and popular,
When you speak of Bohemian Glass the
mind Immediately is fixed on something
that is beautiful Jackson's Bohemian
Glass vases will, when examined, fully sus-
lain any mental picture you may have
drawn of their loveliness. They are of
novel shapes and emDellished with pure
gold decorations-exquisitely pretty.
Have you seen Jackson's MedallionsP
If not give them an inspection, and you
will conclude that they are most pleasing
and sensible pictures to buy-that there is
nothing more suitable for a Christmas
or wedding present.
These are. only few of the attractions
at Jackson's,

A Novel Legal Proceeding.

In July of this year Mrs. Ella l.. Greever
gave notice to the Norfolk & Western
Railway Company that she would make
application to the county court of Tazewell
county for the appointment of commits
sioners to go upon the lands of said COM
pany and establish proper and suitable
wagon-way ovel the right of way of the
defendant company, diagonally, at the
division fence between Mrs. Greever's land
and NJ. L. Peery's, about half mile east
of the station at Tazewell.
At the August term, 1898, Of the court
the notice was docketed, and on the 22nd
of August the court appointed commis-
sioners as prayed for in the application,
On the 9th of September, 1898, the COM
missioners reported, that the defendant
should construct proper and suitable
wagon-way across its track at the point
designated, and Tfurther reported "that
said wagon-way shall be left as an open
crossing, so the stock on lands of the said
Mrs. Greever may cross andre-cross. ."
The defendant company resisted the
confirmation of thes report, assigning a
number of reasons, among them the fol-
lowing:
First.-That no wagon-way was neces-
sary.
Second.-That if it was, the proposed
wagon-way was not proper and suitable
one.
Third.-That a wagon-way with gates
would be proper and suitable.
Fourth. section 1902 of the Code
as amended does not provide for or require
ar "open crossing" which is hazardous
to lives of the travelling public"
The court, however, confirmed the report
ofthe heconmissioners. The ruling Of ,hecourt
was excepted to by the defendant COM
pany and application made to the circuit
court for writ of error to the judgement
of the county court. On Tuesday Judge
Jackson granted the writ of.error, and the
case will now be docketed in the circuit
court
In many respects it is case of first i'm
preston, involving questions that have
never been decided in the courts of Vir
ginia, and there is no doubt but that il
will ultimately reach the Supreme Court
of Appeals for determination. Mrs
Greever is represented by Chapman 6
Gillespie, as counsel, and the Norfolk 6
Western Railway Company by May, May
& Smith. The public will await with
much interest the final determination o.
the interesting case.
