FORTUNE TELLERs. FALL OUT.
Medium, Palmist and Spiritualist Pay
Their Respects to Each Other.

These are days of the weird and oc-
cult in Raleigh.
A Spiritualist at the Carrollton.
A Palmist at the Marlborough.
A Fortune Teller in little house on
South street.
The fortune teller, Madam Amaze, came
here first some two weeks ago.
Next came the Spiritualist, DR. Schle-
shinger, last week.
And yesterdays train brought in
Madam Elrado the Palmist.
No sooner had DIR. Schlesinger settled
down to business than he pronounced
the Amaze woman a fraud i'll Spiritual
ism. and declared his disbelief in all
who pretend to foretell the future.
Madam Elrado holds much the same
opinion as to Madam Amaze and not
much better belief as to DR..
Schlesinger. In fact Madam Amaze
was the cause of her visit
to Raleigh at this time. Her home is
in Durham, where she has bought Il
house and lot. But recently she has been
in Charlotte While there she received
she says, number of threatening let
ters from Madam Amaze.
These letters told her that she madam
Elrado), had cheated the people out of
their money and she had better make
herself Scarce-that the people Were.
waiting for her and it would not be
safe to stay in Durham. Other letters
ridiculed Madam Elrado and her art.
While still others purported to be an
swers to letters received from Madam
Elrado.
And it was these last that brought
Madam Elrado to aleigh yesterday
She came on the $40 train, went direct
to the Marlborough House and from
there to the chief of police, to whom
she told of the letters she had received.
Chief Mullen detailed Officer Ellison
to go with her to Madam Amae's. When
they reached there Madam Elrado de-
manded the letters purporting to come
from her.
Elrado insisted Madam Amaze couldn't
find them. Madam Elrado told her she
must find them Finally one was
found. Madam Elrado pronounced it
a forgery and destroyed it. Madam
Amaze couldn't remember about the 9TH
ers or find them.
The interview was a very stormy one.
it is said, and but for the presence or
the officer there would probably have
been a fight.
Madam Elrado went down last night
to see DR.. Schlesinger, the Spiritualist
What do you think of him?'' / asked
her.
'sOh, ! gave him $50, but | got moth
ing for it. That is, he told me moth
ing worth anything nothing that /
didn't know before. Now / read your
hand. In it there are markings of the
life These markings are familiar 10
ne and by them / am able to tell both
the past and the future. i don't know
how DR.. Schlesinger reads those names
that you write on the paper, but know
it's worth precious little to you after
it's done"

SONG RECITAL.
Mr.. Vernon Darnall Delights Large
Audience at Peace Institute

1t was certainly Il treat that Peace
Institute gave to Raleigh people last night
in the Song Recital of Mr.. Darnal, IN
fortunately the bad weather prevented
\ good many from enjoying the singers
grand voice. Still there was a goodiy
crowd present, and the enthusiasm
shown was more than goodly. Encores,
owing to the length of the program, were
not to be given; but several times the
recalls were so long and loud that there
was nothing to do but satisfy the au-
dience and give them little more.
The well arranged program gave
splendid opportunity for the display OF
the versatility and vast range Of Mr.
Darnall's voice, now sweet and pleading
ard tender, now ringing and powerful
and impetuous Pathetic love-song and
fiery martial ballad were alike rendered
with Il cultured finish and natural pow
er that were enhancing in their effect.
1t is a genuine pleasure to hear him
sing, and that after all is the Creates
compliment that can be paid a true ar
list.
Mr.. Darnall was ably assisted by Mrs
Benz. w. Kilgore, accompanist, and dr.

THE SECRET OF THE STRAIT

Another expedition is going i'll quest
of 1.-THE secret of the strait" For 400
years the secret has remained unsolved.
Nowadays biologists and geOgraphers
do not think water connections exist be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific. That
the time was when the two continents
1were apart, these scient. fc people believe.
There are people who find the secret
iof health as hard to find. Three words
tell the way-a healthy stomach. The
secret is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
1T cures constipation, Indigestion, dys-
pepsia and all liver and kidney ailments.
{ 1t cures them permanently. And it
brings relief at once All druggists
keep it, and a private Revenue Stamp
covers the neck of the bottle.

HOW THEY PLAYED INDIAN.
Two Small Raleigh Boys Capture a
Big 0possum.

This is "a story of adventure, but a
true one.
They were two young Indians the he
roes of this story. At least they We're
playing Indian.
In the story books they had read
these two bright little fellows-how In
dams live in the heart of the forest
lind food i'll the streams and ON noun
tain and plain, and for pass-time scalp
all pale-faces who may happen to come
their way.
These stories of adventure had stirred
the blood of Masters Wilbur and Percy
Register, until they could resist it no
longer. So Saturday they started for
the woods ito be shore 'nough Injuns"
The one carried an aXe-he called it
tomahawk; the other had a Flobert rife
in case the tomahawk wasn't a sue
cess. Both carried potatoes and raw
meat-these to furnish food for the
young sayages in event the streams
this direction.
But this last precaution was unneces-
sary. The stream came up shy several
chips on its part of the contract, but
the forest was kinder than the young
savages had dreamed.
They had not gone far into the woods
before a favorable spot for a wigwam
was found. They prepared to build there
"a fire and cook the meat and roast the
potatoes. But as they did so, two bright
eyes were seen cleaning from hollow
in tree root.
1t took but minute to fire ball
from the rifle at them As they did
so, out came "a big opossum and began
to scramble up the tree. But no self
respecting Indian with his tomahawk by
his side ever let his game escape so
easily. Nor did these little Indians I'm
telling you about. They bounced upon
that possum with that axe and before he
could get out of reach he was IA dead
possum.
And that's why there was possum
dinner at Mr.. V. G. Royster's Sunday
and why their small boy pIaymates now
think WILDER and Percy bigger heroes
than Dewey and Schley.

AT THE PARIS EXPOSITION
NOR n CAROLINA Is TO BE REPRESENTED
BY AN EXHIBIT.
No Separate Space VIII be Given the States
but Each Cln Have Representation
in the Departments.

North Carolina is to have its repre-
sentation among the exhibits at the
Paris Exposition despite the Dreyfus
case.
Under the regulations and on account
of the great demand for space from the
whole world, no separate space for ex-
hibits will be assigned to the several
States of the Union, but each can send
exhibits if it so desires and they will
be displayed in the space allotted to the
several departments of industry of The
United States.
Secretary T. X. Bruner, of the Board
of Agriculture, has been corresponding
with the national authorities who con-
troll the space allotted to the United
States He has secured space for this
State in the departments of Agriculture,
Horticulture, mining, and Fisheries. He
is now corresponding with parties
throughout the State with a view to
making up the exhibits for these several
departments.
The matter it will be remembered,
was discussed at the last meeting Of the
Board of Agriculture, but action was
postponed. 1t will be taken up again at
the approaching meeting and it is hoped
that suitable appropriation may be
secured for the purpose.
1t will be the purpose of those prepar-
ing the exhibit to make North Carolina
come out prominently among the other
States in all the several lines of exhibits.
