The Caucasian. (Clinton, N.C.) 188?-1913, 1899-08-10
Died..

On Wednesday July 18th, 1899
the Angel Of Death. visited the
family of Mr.. Henry McLamb and
took from them the beloved daughter,
Miss Fife. She was thirty-two years
of age. She joined Mt. Elma Bap-
fist church at an early age and since
that time she has been a consistent
member. She is missed we will say
more than tongue can tell at home.
But we feel that she will be missed
at her church. We feel that she
now sleeps with Jeshs, blessed sleep.
She leaves a father and mother,
five brothers and seven sisters and a
host of relatives and friends to
mourn their loss. But while it is our
loss it Is her eternal gain, and may
our blessed Savior supply that spirit
of faith that makes all submissive to
his will.
We lay sweet flowers on the mound
That hides her gentle form,
Their OdOrs voice resOund
Another loved one has gone.
She cannot come to US,
We see her form no more,
But we can go to her,
If her Saviour we adore.
Oh the loving links that bind US,
To Fife so true and dear.
One by one we leave behind US,
As We to the grave draw near.
To the bereaved family we extent
our sympathy and bid them look K
the God of peace for comfort.

The application was slow and thor
 ough, the gentle massage of the roots
 with the finger tips being needed to
 open the pores for the absorption of
 the oil The treatment was usually
 made at night, and the hair afterwards
 tied up in a silk handkerchief. The
 silk handkerchief is recommended by
 halrdressers as useful in retaining the natural electricity Of the hair By neon of the following day the odor of the kerosene had disappeared, and in another twelve hours the oiliness that followed it's use had also gone. The effect of this treatment on the hair was promptly nOticee5le; the falling out stopped, and soon new short hairs were found all over the head As the kerosene application was continued, the hair became thick and smooth. When, after several months, it was finally discontinued, abundant glossy locks replaced the dry and lusterless hair-the former condition still exist ing, though no kerosene has been used for two years.-New York Evening Post

MINNEsoTA's GOOD ROADS.

The voters of Minnesota at the re cent election approved a good roads amendment to tho constitution by TO- 043 to 3S,017. This is the first popular vote taken in any state on the good roads question, and is an important test of public sentiment. The Mime sota legislature will now take the nec- essary steps to put in operation a sys- tenn of state aid, such as is in force in New York and New Jersey, where the cost of improved roads is divided among the state, the counties and local taxpayers in the towns Minnesota has found a practical way to take an advanced place in the good roads movement.-St Louis Globe-Demccrat

LET'S HAVE WOMAN SUFFRAGE

The woman suffrage bill comes up in the council today and if that body lis- tens to the voice of the majority of the
 people of Arizona it will promptly pass
 the measure. Whatever may be said of
 the merits or demerits of woman suf-
 frage there is no doubt that a large ma-
 jority of the people of Arizona are in
 favor of it. The experience of the
 states of Colorado and Wyoming has been that woman suffrage improves the morale of politics and that better men and better service by those in office has been secured since woman shared in the elective franchise. So far as we know this statement has never been gainsaid Furthermore there is no doubt that woman suffrage is a step towards educational qualification for suffrage and every intelligent voter is in favor of this class of restriction of the franchise. By all means, gentle men of the council, pass the woman suffrage bill.

PARTLY BY OUR IMPULSE.

Unquestionably United States influ- ence has had much to do with Eng lands conduct in the Egyptian matter England's foreign policy in the past few months has had vigor and pur- pose which recall the days of Palmers- ton and Disraeli. This circumstance has been noticed in England itself as well as on the continent and the same cause for the change has been hinted at in both localities. This is the sym pathy which has been expressed for England in the United States. While this feeling between the two countries lasts there will be no need of formal alliance, and without this feeling an alliance would be of no effect. There is no longer any complaint in England CT anywhere else about the nerveless- ness of the Salisbury ministry" There never will be any such complaint again. Thus American influence is be- ginning to assert itself in Europe, Af- rica and all over the world.-St Louis Globe-DemOcrat.

ENCOURAGE CAPITAL.

As showing the tendency to encour- age enterprises beneficial to the state The Republican would call the atten- ton of the legislators of Arizona to the account of the proposed iron bounty as published in The Republican yesterday morning. Minnesota al ready has a law on her statute books providing for bounty for beet sugar and now it is proposed to pay bounty of 50 cents ton on all pig iron pro- duced in the state. Here in Arizona it has been proposed to encourage great enterprises by exempting them from taxation for a given period, the least offensive of any form of subsidy ever devised and yet the non-progressivists of the legislature oppose such meas ure. If Arizona ever hopes to develop her marvellous resources she must eff- courage the investment of capital in every honorable way and if the invest ment of several millions of dollars can be secured for water storage reser- voirs, smelters, railroad and toll road building by all means let us enact the necessary laws to secure it.

THE SPRING UNDERWOOD.

The name Wedgewood has come to he associated chiefly with blue pottery of soft. unglazed finish upon which clear white designs are wrought. The black-and-w white and all-black varieties preceded the blue-and-white, but al ( scarcely as familiar to the average person. Some beautiful toilet sets received for the early spring trade are of Wedgewood in quite different fin ish. The pieces are smooth and glazed, and can be had in several solid colors. Sets in deep, rich red and warm yellow are particularly effective placed upon the white enameled wash stands intended for country house use. New York Evening Post

SCOTCH wHIsKEY BRINGS WOE
Smooth, Alluring Drink and Preacher
 ous, Says a Glasgow Merchant.

A choice among many brands of Scotch whiskey is offered nowadays in New York saloons to people in search | of hot scOtches; but all the brands have an unfamiliar taste sometimes to visitors from Scotland They are apt to conclude that if the whiskey came from Scotland it must have been made for export only. A Glasgow merchant in New York said:
 ''The real Scotch whiskey of the best type is a blend of different whistles so skillfully made that all pungency in the taste is removed. Unlike the pun gent whiskey here, it slips down the throat as easily as water There is no bite to it. It seems as mild as milk but beware if this quality induces you to imbibe freely, for it is both strong and treacherous. The first impression one gets on tasting the true Scotch whiskey is that it is mild tipple That is where a novice is liable to make the mistake of his life. It glides down so easily that he forgets that it is whis- key he is drinking and ends by think ing that all his companions are dis gracefully drunk, and that he is the only sober person present. After while he is moved to reprove his com panions for imbibing too freely, and
 
 his tongue. It won't say what he wants it to say, but keeps mixing up things and running one word into an other until he gives up trying to talk as a bad job. Then a friend escorts him home, and he goes to bed under the impression that he has escorted his friend home as an act of charity, and then gone home himself.
 Now the Scotch whiskey you get here may come from Scotland, but if it does I never tasted anything like it in Scotland. It has a bite to it which lasts all the way down until it reaches the stomach, and there is a pungent taste to it which makes it feel as if there was a great deal of alcohol in it. But you could drink more of it than of the real Scotch whiskey you get in my country without becoming intoxicated. I don't know whether that is any rec omme mendation. I do know that any one familiar with the qualities of the Scotch whiskey I know of will not daily with it too long. g."-New York Sun.

 A WARNING TO SLOW UP"

The speech of MT. Cannon, chairman
 of the committee on appropriations, in
 the house the other day reminds our
 country of the old p.overb you cannot
 eat your cake and have it." He told | his colleagues frankly that our expen- | ditures growing out of the war with Spain, taking into account only those
 already incurred will crowd our rev. enues very closely, and if new expendi-
 lures are entered upon it means an-
 other issue of bonds. MT. Cannon
 practically served notice that neither
 the ship subsidy bill nor the Nicaragua
 canal bill could be passed at this ses-
 sion. This announcement naturally
 caused a sensation, and several mem
 bers eXcitedly declared that these bills
 ought to be passed even if we ''have to
 mortgage the future to do it." But it
 is more than likely that some of these
 gentlemen practically hold briefs for
 the promoters of the measures under consideration. Others are of the abun-
 dant type of men who never count the cost of anything. There can be no
 doubt that the sentiment very largely prevails among our people that these important measures should be passed. But it may be questioned whether a new issue of bonds for any purpose in time Of peace would be approved by the country, and the party which is- in power should walk very warily in this matter, and not rush ahead with a blind faith that all will somehow come | out right. There is quite too much of | this seductive fallacy at work among | us now. There are too many of our | countrymen who have been carried | away by the splendid fatalism that the American people are bound to succeed | in anything they may undertake and | that it is not worth while for us to lis- ten to the warnings of history or the invariable experience of other nations both of ancient and modern times MT. Cannon expressed himself as warmly in favor Of the two great which he regards as doomed for the present, and his warning to down brakes" coming as it does from Q patriot and friend of the party in power, ought to be needed by those who have the responsibilitylo direct ing the affairs of the country at this crisis. Of course if we are forced to maintain a condition of war for sev- eral years to come, as we may, our people would not hesitate to sanction any necessary measure to meet our ex- traordinary expenses, even if it in volved new issues of bonds. But it is clear that we ought to proceed with very great care in every branch of the government, and at once dismiss from our minds the idea that we have money tC burn,' as the say ing is. The war was, despite it's brevity, a costly affair and it's expenses will press us sorely for many a day, even if they do not entail upon us new burdens of a financial sort far exceed ing any estimates

UTILIZING FOGS.
A Problem for the California Agri-
 culturists.

Herbert Earlscliffe of Santa Bar | bara, Cal, has communicated to the
 weather bureau, through the chamber
 of commerce of Los Angeles. a sugges
 tion relative to fog that should cal fcrth all the inventive genius of Amer.
 ica. Mir. EaTlscliffe says:
 Tn California there are vast areas
 Of valuable land where the water SUD- | ply is insufficient Nature has en-
 deavored to correct this by sending in
 heavy fogs laden with moisture. and it
 only remains for the ingenuity of man to utilize this. These fogs generally come in from the ocean at night dur ing the dry summer months, when
 most needed, but are dissipated early
 in the morning by the sun. Here is
 ample moisture brought to our very
 doors if we could but discover some
 simple and practical method of con- densing or precipitating it on a large scale''
 It certainly is tantalizing to think Of this immense quantity of moisture present and visible but unavailable. Neither science nor art at present can suggest any feasible method of causing this fog to descend in refreshing drops of rain. On the other hand, the green vegetation at the summits of many mountains has often been observed to be due essentially to cloud or fog and not to rain; it may, therefore, be hoped that along the coast of California some device will soon be introduced that shall catch the fog particles as they float along and force them to trickle down in gentle streams of water so as to moisten the earth. We do not pro- pose to condense or precfpitate the at mospheric moisture in the ordinary sense of those words, but simply to catch it as the leaves of the trees do We recall the so-called drip from every rock and twig on the summit of Table Mountain at Cape Town, and especially on the summit of Green Mountain, i'll the island of Ascension, and the damp ness of the rocks on Pike'S Peak. and we cannot doubt but that in many spots throughout the globe vegetation is kept alive by the small amount of moisture that is caught on the leaves, and. dripping thence to the ground, is soaked up by the roots of the plant In fact, there are several plants whose leaves and branches are so arranged as to facilitate drip and the collection of moisture by this process
 What is needed by the agricultur- ist on the California coast is some sim pie mechanical arrangement by which the quantity of fog particles shall be as they flow past any given plant. and shall be forced to drip or glide downward into the ground at the ! root of the plant. Any fan-shaped ar i engagement or sticks CT slate that in | creases the area exposed to the fog should apparently increase the quan- | tity of moisture carried down to the | roots. Mechanical devices, the explo- sion of dynamite, refrigerating appa- ratus and ether analogous devices are likely to be too expensive in compari- son with the return they make Monthly Weather Review.

HOW STANDS THE RECORD.

A more interesting question for MT Cleveland is this: How many lives oi the natives of Cuba were sacrificed while he held hands off and let Gen. eral Weyler proceed with his slaughter at pleasure? What excuse does he now offe- for ignoring the representations of Cuban conditions made to him by his own officials in Cuba, and to the country through the agency of reput- able newspaper correspondents, and ac- cepting instead the lying statements of Senor de Lome and his paid funk eys? What is his share in the respon- sibility for all the horrors visited upon the Teconcentrados? - Washington Star

IT COVERS THIS FIELD.

The circulation of The Repub- lican is increasing more rapidly than in any previous season. The readers of Arizona have dis covered that this newspaper fills a long felt want, and their ap- preciation is shown in The Re publican's constantly growing subscription list. The day is near at hand when The Republi- can will be delivered daily at every home in the valley where a newspaper is considered a ne- cessity. Merchants who adver- tise regularly in The Republican cannot help reaping rich re- ward.

Phoenix is rapidly acquiring the rep utation in theatrical circles of being one of the best theater towns in the west. This reputation will bring many good attractions here next year. The new opera house is proving a magnificent advertisement for Phoenix.
