Trainmaster Williams says one of
them came back yesterday morning
and was reinstated.
The operator at Gaffney, S. c.. and
the operator at Greenville. 5. c.. have
quit work. There is no other case
of disaffection on this division south
of Charlotte.
At Charlotte two operators stopped
work.
At Salisbury four of the regular OPP
orators are with the strikers.
\ gentleman from Cary says that
although only the night operator
there is actively with the strikers the
agent is in sympathy with him and
while attending strictly to his duties
as agent he is not touching the tele-
graph instrument. and this state
of affairs is said to exist at many of
the other offices.
In fact it is doubtful. if reports re-
ceived here are true. whether the rail
roads or anybody else as yet know the
full extent of the strike.
All along the line great sympathy
is being expressed for the strikers.
The Durham Herald of yesterday
says: THE people of Durham general
". are considerably worked up over
the matter as as Il rule are sympa-
thizers with the workmen. While we
are not familiar with their grievances
our sympathies are naturally with the
strikers. We hope they will win, but
both sides have undisputed rights, and
if the railroad can force them to terms
it cannot be blamed, as this is the
way of the world"

night when four men went there from

During Thursday night men armed

LOST HALF HIS EAR.
Two Very Grateful People Speak Up.

Mr.. A. B. Hill of Vacayille feels
that he owes his life TO DIR. Chamley.
He had a large cancer in his ear and
had consulted a number of the best
physicians he could find. He under
went in all nine separate treatments,
IN the course Of which the cancer
not only became worse, but one-half
of his ear had been removed. He ap-
piled to DR.. Chamley, November 10,
1897. and was treated by the latter for
only two weeks. AS result, the
cancer was completely eradicated, not
a vestige of his terrible disease re-
naming
Mr. Mattias. Gartner of 2019 Fif-
teenth street is another convalscent
full of gratitude and praise for DR..
Chamley. Like many inveterate
smokers, he contracted cancer of the
lip, and though: his disease constantly
grew worse, he could find no way of
checking it's inroads. He finally OBJ
tanned a copy Of DR.. Chamleys 120-
page free book on the cure of cancer
without knife or pain. and as a result
placed himself under the latter's care
at No. rs Third street. With the ex-
ception Of small scar no trace of the
cancer is left.
Women especially should consult the
Doctor at the appearance of any lump
in the breast, as such will always
prove to be cancers. F. Examiner,

HIS VISIT TO VESUVUS.
And What He Thought as He Gazed
Into the Fiery Pit.


An American who detests sightsee-
Ing upon principle loafed for six weeks
ut Sorrento without stirring in the di-
rection of places most travellers would
have thought 1t criminal to omit. His
only dread was the cross questioning
of kind friends when he got home. To
confess that be had deliberately staid
away from all those celebrated spots
0f interest would bring down no end of
Scorn and denunciation upon him. But
sufficient unto the day Is the evil there
of, and the American resolved to trust
to inspiration to get him out Of such
possible scrapes. The first person he
met after leaving Sorrento was an
American woman on the train, and the
first thing she wanted to know was If
he had climbed Vesuvius.
81 did," said the American without
quiver.
"Oh, tell me all about itw cried the
woman. How interesting it must
have been! My husband never would
let me go up, but I'd just love to hear
your experience"
The American, having heard the
whole story many, many times, plung-
ed into it with much detail. He de-
scribed the long drive from Naples to
the foot of the mountain and the steep
ness Of the inclined railway and the
way the women Of the party squealed
and all the rest of it. From time to
time the woman interrupted with some
searching question, but so well did he
know his mes that never once did she
catch him napRing. At last, after
realistic account of how, after leaving
the train he had plunged his way on
foot through the hot, powdery lava to
the crater's very edge, the American
paused for breath.
"And what" asked the woman,
"were your sensations as you gazed
down into that fiery pitt"
Madam" said the American, Il
thought of the fate that awaited all
liars."-New York Sun.

Food for Brain Work.

It is all right for the man who la
bors all day in the open air to eat free
ly, but the man Of sedentary habits.
the brainworker, must adapt his way
Of living to his needs. He must be
well nourished, for the brain is incapa-
BILE of good work unless well supplied
with pure blood, but such a man can
not possibly furnish vital force to d.
gest three large meals daily. II he
tries it nature will protest at every
step. The chemical changes of diges-
ton will be ;mperfectly performed.
The stomach will neither secrete free
ly nor churn the food with cheerful
alacrity; the pyloric orifice contracts
and allows such chyme to pass with
grudging reluctance; the intestinal lac
teals are ashamed to absorb such mis-
erable pabulum, which cEokes, irri-
tates and congests them, so the large
meal remains in the digestive organs
to ferment, putrefy and steep the in
dividual in foul gases and depraved
secretions.
Bat the system can furnish enough
vital force to convert small meal into
pabulum Of high standard, which will
be absorbed without difficulty. Three
such small meals are not enough to
keep the individual properly nourlsh-
ed, however; four to six will be re-
quired. Each should consist Of but
one or at most two articles Of food. the
diet to be varied by changes at meals.
The portion Of food served must be
small; the patient must stop rs soon
as the appetite is satisfied and gaseous
distension is proof positive that the
meals are still too large or too close
together.-Sanitary Record.

A Mexican Volcano Active.

Details of the eruption of the Colima
volcano on the Pacific coast of Mexico,
recently reported by telegraph from
Guadalajara Mex, have been received
by w. j. Arkell of New York. An i'm
mense river of lava ran over the side
of the volcano and threatened to over
whelm three Indian villages near it's
base. The Indians fled to the Santa
Ana mine, in the center of Colima' s
copper region, and sought safety by
hiding In the mine, leaving their women
and children to shift for themselves
A company Of Mexican troops drove
the Indians from the mine and sent
them back to their homes to protect
their families
