No Success at All
Norfolk -Pilot.)

The Washington Post asserts that
than this war, and then attributes the
honor of it to Mr.. Mckinley.
This will do very well for a cross
roads campaign speech in the pack
woods, but not elsewhere. It was the
unreadiness of the army for war. it
was said, that delayed the war and
prevented an immediate attack and
siege of Habana; no arms, no ammu-
milton, no drilled and trained men. 1t
is true, that, after a long wait at i'm
mense cost, which allowed Habana
every opportunity to reinforce and
supply herself and make her defenc9s
impregnable, to attack that city was
deemed madness, especially as San
tiagO, meanwhile,' in the procession OF
events beyond the foresight and con-
troll of anybody, President Mckinley
not excepted, by reason Of Cerveras
1eet having taken refuge in it's bay,
was the indispensable point Of attack
and capture.
Neither the president nor his admin
istratiOn deserve n credit Tor any
thing in the conduct Of the war, ex-
cept as their di~lly-dallying had acct
dental results never designed. Lack OF
preparation was the C he and his
administration ave for p~ostpOning the
attack on Havana at first; then the
strength of Habana, due to the origi-
nal delay, made further delay neces-
sary; and then affairs at Santiago
forced the abandonment for a time of
all designs on Habana, and the throw
ing of a force there to take the town
and attack Cervera's bottled fleet by
land. Genera Shafter claims all the
honors of Santiago, expressly repudi-
ating any claim made by or for the
administration of any share in the
direction of the army in the reduction
of hat city.
Moreover, after all the plans for de-
lay which made the world believe that
volunteers were to be employed in
Cuba, Skaters army consisted almost
wholly Of regular soldiers, who were
just as ready for war on the day IL
; was declared as on the day they LANDED
in Cuba Nothing has been yet
achieved but empty victories. Spain
still holds Cuba and all her West In
dian islands, and the chief thing at
tributable to Mr.. Mckinley in the
whole matter is the continuation Of
Spanish rule at Santiago and in The
surrounding district to the natural in
dignation of all Cuban patriots. The
Philippine iasco for that is all It is
so far, notwithstanding the brilliant
victory won by Dewey will be most
lucky for US if it becomes no worse;
and Spain seeks peace because of heI
bankruptcy, and not from IN wise
diplomacy from Washington.

FELL FROM A HOUSE TOP
A mi Falls Thirty Feet and is
Badly Hurt.

Yesterday afternoon. a colored paint
er, Tony Black, while at work on the
house Of Mr.. B. G.. Worth, on Second
street, between Chestnut and Grace,
fell a distance Of about thirty feet, sus-
tanning serious injury.
About 5 o'clock Black placed his
swinging stage in place at top Of the
residence on the north side. He hen
got upon the stage and commenced to
work, when suddenly one of the W.
hooks, which are always attached over
the caves, came unfastened, and Black
and the stage were precipitated to the
ground below. 1t was a fall of abOu
thirty feet, and it was truly a miracle
that Black was not killed. AS it was,
he struck the ground in an upright
position, feet first. Consequently, he
a saved from fatal injury, but one
of his legs was broken, his head badly
cut, a joint Of a finger torn off and
many other painful hurts inflicted.
Medical aid was at nee sought, and
Drs. Frank H. Russell and Thos =.
Burbank brought to the injured man.
They made an examination, and then
had him removed to the city hospital,
where his wounds We're dressed. At
last accounts last night the sufferer
was resting easy.
Black is an employe of Mr.. A. T.
COoksey, and is a mirried man. At
the time of the accident he was one
of several hands at work on the same
building. -

prisoner, who was wanted for several
%offenses, was recaptured in the city
Saturday night by Deputy Sheriff j..
P. Flynn and Policemen Gurganus and
George.
On the 18th of July Marshall assault
ed his wife with an axe and was ar
rested and recognized for trial next
day before Justice Fowler. Instead Of
behaving himself, however, he return
ed home and assaulted his wife with
a u barrel, threatening to kill her
He was arrested, and was required to
give bond for his appearance, but on
the way to Jail he escaped from Dep
uty Sheriff Bryant.
Yesterday morning Marshall was
given a hearing before Justice j.. j.
Fowler on h charge of assaulting his
wife with a deadly weapon n was
bound over to the next term Of the
criminal court. In default Of $50 bail
he was committed to Jail. He will have
a hearing today on another charge of
ssaul and battery with a deadly
Weapon, and probably other charges
will be laid at his door before the
officers are through with him.

A Minister'S House Entered

Last night about $50 o'clock, the
residence of the Rev. ]. w. Kramer.
40 North Fourth street, was entered,
but nothing was carried away, con-
frary to the rule which has been in
vogue of late. On the contrary, m
thing was left for Mr.. Kramer and
his family.
The persons who entered the parson-
age Were a lot of the members Of Mr..
Kramers congregation and they came
loaded down with good things. 1t was
a heavy pounding that Mr.. Kramer
got, and. of course. when the good peo-
pie called he was taken completely by
surprise. In a few heartfelt and elo-
Quent words he expressed his thakns to
his friends for their kind remembrance.
Mr.. Kramer has been pastor of
Brooklyn Baptist church nearly three
years, and there is no pastor in the
city who holds a warmer place in the
hearts of his flock. The church has
prospered and grown in strength un-
der his m~inistration, and he grows in
popularity with his people the longer
he stays with them.

England Against Russia

London, August A dispatch from
Pekin TO a local news agency says:
Efforts are being made by the Brit
ish colony at New Chwang. in con-
junction with the Japanese, 10 obtain
concessions for the neighborhood as n
proposed railroad terminus. The mat
ter has been referred to the local Tau
tai, whose dilatoriness In the matter
is declared TO be due 10 Russian brides.
1T is impossible TO overestimate the
Importance OF obtaining n proper foot
ing a region where already Russian in
fluence p~reponderates.
"A great proportion OF the New
Chwang rad is in American goods,
and this fact renders the cooperation
OF the United States minister and his
support of the British demand neces-
sary, as the gravity OF the situation Is
~undoubted.
Letters have been received from
leading British merchants in North
China confirming the reports Of the
uneasiness prevailing among the Chi
nese, who regard the issue between
Russia and England as likely 10 decide
the future of China.
AN imperial decree was issued to-
day establishing a central bureau OF
mining and railway administration
under the presidency Of two abine
ministers"
The Daily Graphic, in an editorial
with reference to the concessions now
being eought by the British colony in
New Chwang, says: What is Ameri-
ca doing? So much has been said
about the identity OF the British and
American interests in this matter that
we are rather astonished at the abb
sence Of any evidence OF 1t at Picking

About one mont ago my child, which
is fifteen months old, had an attack Of
diarrhoea, accompanied by vomiting.
I gave it such remedies as are usually
given in such cases, but as nothing
gave relief, we sent for a physician
and it was under his care for a week.
At this time the child a been sick
for about ten days and was having
about twenty-five operations of the
bowels every twelve hours, and we
were convinced hat unless it soon OBJ

ginnig, "Sleep on, Beloved, Sleep, and
Take Thy Rest Then followed ap-
propriate scripture reading, after
which was sung the hymn beginning,
Come, Ye DiscOnsolate." After prayer
and Scripture reading the choir tender

Joseph Earle Stevens, an ex-resi-
dem of Manila, in his book yesterdays
in the Philippines" thus records an
impression" of General Blanco, now
in command in Cuba:
81 met General Blanco, governor of
the islands, the other evening, and he
seemed to enjoy the good music and
good supper, which n of our popu-
lar bank managers and his wife pro-
vided for some of us in the colony on
the occasion of a birthday. He is an
elderly man, and kindly, and appears
milder in disposition than would seem
advisable for one occupying SO impor-
tant a position. / should think he
might let some Of those sharp-eyed
little ministers of his run him, and
he appears almost too modest, too
kind-hearted, to be the ruler that he
is. Suffice to say the general is mod
est in dress and modest in manner
He often walks up and down the
Malecon promenade by the bay in the
afternoon, saluting every n that
passes, and when the vesper bell
rings out the hour of prayer from one
Of the old churches inside the city
walls he stops, removes his tall, gray
stove-pipe and, as do a host of other
pedestrians, bows his head. To tell
the truth, he has little of the Spanish
aspect about him, and is just the kind
of a man n would go up and speak
to on the Teutonic or Campania. In
sharp contrast is he to the archbishop
" 10 drives about behind his fine white
horses, and he looks as keen as vel
ncurished. But who knows. Appear.
ences are deceitful and foolish he who
trusts to them.

Col D0ckery Refuses TO Come Down for
Mr.. keith-Two Republicans In the
Field.


1t will be remembered that Hon.
o. II. Dockery, of Rockingham, was
nominated for congress in this district
by both the republican and populist
conventions. Mr.. B. F. Keith, of this
city, sought the populist nomination,
and it is stated On reliable authority
that an effort has been made to get
Colonel Dockery to come down" IN
behalf of Mr.. Keith. We learn, how
ever, that colonel Dockery will not
consent to do so. He claims that the
nomination this time belongs to the
republicans, according to the agree
meent with the populists when the
fusion arrangements were made two
years ago. The republicans claim that
the populists agreed that if the repub-
licans would support Mr.. Martin. who
was elected in 1896 and who served in
congress the previous term, they
would support the republican nominee
in 1898.
Mr.. Bellamy, the democratic nomi-
nee, will therefore have Colonel Dock
cry as his opponent and he has some
hot shot to fire into him.
DR.. r. NJ. Norment, of Lumberton,
another republican, is still in the field,
and if he is lot induced to quit the
race there will be two republican can
didates to vote for.
