CFrom wodncsday's DallyJ

Promptly az noon yesterday the
quarantine was raised. and the people
Of Chinatown were again allowed the
freedom OF the city. The military
guards were withdrawn. and later were
dismissed from duty which has been
well done
The scenes at the patrol lines as the
the noon hour approached, were char
acteristic OF the Oklahoma boomer
days when thousand of settlers waited
to rush the line, but in this case there
were no "sooners" for the guards were
alert and no one was permitted TO
cross until the proper hour. Traffic
Immediately began, stores were open
ed, the street cars commenced regular
trips, and nothing suggested the form
er quarantine and excitement in the
district except the piles OF rubbish
burning in the streets, and here and
there a yellow flag hanging with a
military guard near by.
AT the same time the quarantined
steamers commenced preparations for
their delayed trips, and many loft as
soon as other passengers could get
aboard. Consul General Haywood at
noon sent the following notice to the
ship masters
Honolulu ii. l.. Dec. 10Th, 1899.

VIM. HAYWOOD.

Consul-General OF the United States
Fully 10000 pounds of poi and sew
eral hundred pounds of salmon have
been distributed amongst the natives
in the isolated district since the com
mencement of the quarantine, under
the supervision of Capt. George Ashley
Not only natives were supplied but
Chinese and Japanese as well.
One case of death was an object OF
suspicion yesterday morning, that of q
Chinese woman who was reported as
having fallen down a stairway on Mon
day evening. Yesterday morning the
inspectors broke down the door of the
woman's room and found her dead. A
postmortem was held, but nothing was
found TO indicate that she had died
from any cause other than her injuries.
AS usual the rumor was floated about
the city that another case OF plague
had been discovered.
The case of Ethel Johnson, the young
girl who was attended by the physi-
clans on Monday night at 1wilei, has
had no change. She is yet alive and
the Board of Health physicians have
been in constant attendance, and a
trained nurse was also sent out yes
terday. The girl is very low, but moth
ing has developed by which the physl-
clans are absolutely certain as to
whether she has the plague.
Some quarantine passes were stolen
from the Office of the Board of Health
a couple of nights ago and We're sold.
One of them was a pass bearing Louis
Marks name which had been turned
in to the Board of Health office A ma
tive employee about the building was
arrested and is now confined in the
military guardhouse in the Executive
grounds. Nothing definite has been
decided on as to what punishment will
be melted out to him.
Minister Cooper and Jack" Nc
Weigh were very busy yesterday morn
ing attending to applications ana pny-
sicians' certificates for leave to go up
on the outgoing steamers. Freight bill
books were also given the usual o. X.
1t Is estimated that $500 a day would
about strike an average for the ex-
penses of the quarantine, so far. The
soldiers will probably receive about
for privates, grading higher for Of
ficers
Doctor Hoffmann's menagerie Is
empty. All the live rats We're disposed
of yesterday, while the rabbit over
which so much discussion and worry
has been squandered, died the death
which Doctor Hoffman, has been
awaiting anxiously for SO many days
The physicians feel certain that it was
the plague bacilli which killed the
animal.
Colonel Ruhlen will notify the Quar-
termaster Department at San Francis
co by the steamer Gaelic of the raising
of the quarantine and recommend that
the transports again be sent by way
OF Honolulu as usual.

Robbed The Grave.

A startling incident, of which
Mr.. John Oliver of Philadelphia.
was the subject, is narrated by
him as follows: 81 was in a most
dreadful condition, MY skin was
almost yellow. eyes sunken,
tongue coated, pain continually
in back and sides, nc appetite

given me up. Fortunately, 9

become SO exhausted that not only
sleep but digestion is interfered with.
It's immediate i~nyigorating effect in
such cases is shown in the following
letter from Mrs. Fannie West, presi-
dent of the South Side relief society
of Chicago. The letter is dated De-
cember II, 1898:
owe feel very glad to acknowledge
the fine qualities of Paine's celery
compound. 1t is the best remedy we
know of for building up the nervous
system. Our doctors prescribe it,
and it always gives immediate relief"
Back of nervousness, sleeplessness
and many of the peculiar ailments of
women is poverty of the blood.
Paleness, thinness of body and weak
ness are evidences of poor blood. In
some cases palpitation of the heart is
complained of, and when the poverty
is greatest, the lips are pallid and the
tongue almost colorless.
In these cases of an8mia if Paine's
celery compound is used the gain
from day to day is plainly notice
able. It's tonic effect in renewing
the blood and restoring the strength
has been little short of miraculous
in cases of extreme emaciation and
nervous prostration.
If a woman feels that she is losing
ground in weight and strength she
should set about increasing the blood
supply at once with the aid of
Paine's celery compound.

The Sponsor Question.
Charlotte Observer.

Charlotte Observer.
At the convention of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy,
held at Hot Springs, Ark, in
November last, a resolution was
adopted requesting the United
Confederate Veterans to 'limit
the number of sponsors and maids
of honor to one from each State
ard Territory where there is a
camp of United Confederate Vet
Grams, because Confederate reuu-
ions have been of late years an
entertainment for the sponsors
and maids of honor instead of the
veterans" The Danville Register
an5 the Charleston News and
Courier, the latter the leading
paper of the city where the next
reunion is to take place, highly
endorse this request Of the Daugh
ters of the Confederacy, but Gen.
Gordon has refused it, SO that
there will be the usual thropg
of sponsors on hand at Charles
ton. We, too, add u approbas
ton to the request of the Daughs
tiers, and our disapproval Of Gen
Gordon's order. There were en-
tirely too many sponsors, and
there was entirely too much spon-
sing at the last-Atlanta-reun-
ion, even though the parade spon-
sing was interfered with by a
continuous rain, the young lads
ies-frocks, frills, founces, laces,
ribbons and all-having to ride
in closed carriages, and of course
anybody with a grain of sense
knows how utterly futile any at
tempt is of a sponsor to SPONGE
in a closed aud covered carriage.
AS it is not going to rain in
Charleston, the sponsor feature
is likely to be seriously OVER
done.

DEATH OF DIAL nj. HARDY
Daily Argus OF Monday.

Daily Argus Of Monday.
Dal Hardy is dead. Last night
just as the church bells were
calling the people to church, the
words, "Dal Hardy is dead"
passed from lip to lip and sorrow
fell on the hearts of all. Kind,
.obliging, ever ready to serve his
friends, eve ready to listen to a
tale Of distress, and ever ready to
do all in his power to relieve the
sorrowing. We shall sadly miss
his smiling face and cheerful
voice.
Mr.. Hardy was born in Lenoir
county, about five miles north of
La Grange. His father, who died
a few months ago, was Jesse IL.
Hardy, a long time a prominent
man in the community in which
he lived. His mothers maiden
name was Miss Martha Stanton,
sister of the late George Stanton,
of Wilson county, and Mr. D.. M,
stanton, Secretary and Treasurer
Iof the Atlantic and North Caro-,
lima Railroad.
Mr.. Hardy came to Goldsboro
in his early manhood. About S
years ago he was admitted to the
Bar and had practiced law until
ibis death.
He was taken sick Friday
might, but it was not thought to
be serious. Saturday night, he
lgrew rapidly worse and died Sun
Iday evening at $50 o'clock. His
lremains were taken to the ole
home in Lenoir county for buria
this afternoon. All the members
of the Bar, and a number of the
Masonic Lodge accompanied the
remains to Lenoir.

The work OF the average woman,
whether she be in charge of a house

ing. but never done, or behind a
counter, or IN a s~choolroom, is of a
sort that rarely leaves her with
strength or inclination for anything
else.
The strain upon most women'e
nerves, is SO great that a breakdown
stares many Of them constantly in
the face, which means loss Of work,

One OF the earliest and one of the
most infsIiple indications of failing
nervous strength is the inability to
sleep soundly.
No fact is more clearly established
than that sleep repairs the tired ner-

quickly and more seriously than any
other prigation the body can suffer.
The great effort, then, of every poor

valry, which the church commem-
%orates during this week-hence
the name Holy Week.
st. Chrysostom calls it the
Great Week: "not that it consists
of a greater number of days, or
that the days in it are longer; but
on account of the great things
which God has wrought in it; for
on these days was the tyranny OF
the devil overthrow; death dis
armed, sin and its curse taken
away, heaven opened and made
accessible, and men made fellows
with the angels"
In churches throughout the
word during the next few days
will be witnessed a solemn sue
cession of services, as the intro
.ductory chords of the great Res
direction theme pronounced last
Sunday, merge from the jubiIation
of the "Hosanna in the highest"
through the clanorous dissonance
Of ''Crucify Him! Cruelty Him!"
to the triumphant harmonies of
the "AlleIuia! He is Risen!"
Easter is distinctiyely a festival
of the church. 1t has, it is true,
its social and increasingly large
commercial aspects, which + of
influence and Importance; but its
observance has escaped, in a larger
degree, the secularization which
obscures to many the significance
of Christmas. 1t is a Sunday fes-
tival, and it is within the precincts
of the sanctuary that is sought the
true realization OF the meaning of
Easter. The churches, responsive
the inspiration of the event,
surround the day with impressive
ceremonial, and in sermon, in
prayer and song, and the silent
cloquenco of fairest floral offering,
is the theme Of the Risen Lord ex-
