their greatest efforts. Washington was
said to be "first in war, first in peace and
first III the hearts of his countrymen. !" It
is great thingto be first. Nothing is of
more value to mankind and brings great
er happiness than good remedy. Many
things will TelieVe but the one that will
cure is best. Brazilian Balm is such rem
edy. Tens of thousands have found that
it is the only thing that would cure Ca
tarrh and Asthma. For IS yrs. it has nev-
er failed in a single case to cure Asthma,
and its record has been as wonderful in
Catarrh. Cases that had, to all appearan-
ces, run into Consumption, or where the
nostrilswere entirely stopped up or where
the poisonous pus had eaten holes into
the throat an inch deep, or where the
stomach had become liberated and raw
from swallowing the germ-ladep matter,
were all permanently cured. Such a rec
ord, unknown to any other remedy, just
lyentitles the Brazilian Balm to the first
place in the regard of the American peo-
pie. There are 20, 1000, 900 Catarrh victims
and countless Asthma sufferers in this
country, all of whom can be cured with
Brazilian Balm. A $l.00 bottle OF Brazil
ian Balm contains months treatment
for catarrh or asthma, and for months
we will wrap with each $l.00 bottle a
months treatment Of Toxicola Tablets,
free. Toxicola Is the best tonic and nerve
and strength builder known to science.
This IS tie greatest offer ever made. Ask
your druggist and take no substitute. B.

Tuskegee, Ala, April 10.-Prof.
Booker 7. Washington, answering the
request of a prominent colored man in
North Carolina as to what should he
done to allay the present conflict be-
tween the races, clearly advises him to
make alliance with the triumphant
democracy. Says the letter:
Il have been asking myself lately
some very serious questions, and |
want to put one or two OF them to YOU.
is there any reason why the negro in
the south should continue to oppose
the southern white man and his poe
tics? Is this not the source of nearly
all our troubles? Unconsciously we
seem to have gotten the idea into our
blood and bones that we are only act
ing in Il manly way when we oppose
southern white men with our votes.
"In some way, by some method, we
must bring the race to the point where
it will cease TO feel that the only way
for it to succeed is to oppose every
thing suggested or put forth by the
southern white men.
This, | consider one of our real
problems.
Il believe that there are thousands
of white democrats in North Carolina
who are 50 per cent. better friends to
the negro than Gov. Russell. and | sec
no necessity in continuing TO follow
Gov. RUSSELL who has no power to pro
tect, or if he has the power, does not
exercise it, rather than these other
white men who can protect us if we
cease to continually and forever OPP
pose them"

THE CADETS FIRST BATTLE.
Prospective Military officers Fight

Times Their Number.

West Point, y. V, April l0.-A fierce
battle occurred AT Highland Falls at a
late hour Saturday night between can
didates for admission to West Point
as cadets on the the one side, and
bows of the village on the other. The
candidates are attending the prepara-
tory schools at Highland Falls prior 10
being examined at West Point next
June for admission to the academy.
There were about 80 of them in the
fight, but they were outnumbcred
three to one by the boys of the town.
The trouble began with u hand-to'
hand encounter, and the crowd soon
increased to such an extent that stone
throwing took the place of fists. Sev-
era, of the candidates were more Or
less injured, the most seriously hurt
being: L. S. Grant, third, appointed
at large by the president.
Young Grant was assisted to his
quarters at Cranston's hotel. Many
of the town boys were also badly used

Booth was better known to the people
of Washington than Lincoln. Ofcourse,

John Wilkes Booth was character well
known to Washington. He was almost
as eccentric as his eccentric father, who
was in many respects a crazy man.
THE elder Booth was man who
would 90 to saloon and pawn his body
for liquor, and the theatrical managers

looms and pay the money which he owed
in order to get him on the stage. He be-
came excited once, when he was playing
Richard H. and tried to kill the man
who played Richmond. He chased him
off the stage and all over the theater
until he was himself captured by po-
liceman and disarmed.
His son, John Wilkes. was man OF
uneven mind He drank TO excess and
did many eccentric things. He was a
great pedestrian. He was constantly
taking long walks. Everybody in the
city knew him by sight. He was
ladies' man and always flirting with the

pleased to notice him. He was no
