ROBBED THE GRAvE.-A startling incl
dent, OF which Mr.. John Oliver OF Phila-
delphia, was the subject, is narrated by
him as follows: 81 was In a most dread
full condition. My skin was almost yel-
low, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain
continually in back and sides, no appe-
tite-gradually growing weaker day by
day. Three physicians had given me up.
Fortunately, a friend advised trying 'Elec-
trio Bitters;' and, to my great Joy and
surprise, the first bottle made a decided
improvement. l continued their use for
three weeks, and am now we'll man. L
know they saved my life. and robbed the
grave Of another victim" No one should
fail to try them. Only 30 cents per bottle.

One Hundred Thousand Fruit Trees in
One Orchard. -s-

There is In the state of North Carolina
an interesting settlement that has grown
up almost without notice. Amid the long
leaf pines not far from the capital of the
old northern state is territory of about
six hundred square miles of what Is known
as the high sand hills. The hills are as
high as the hilly lands of the north, but
they are made up of pure white sand, and
on them grow sparingly and far between
the tall long -leaved pines that tower to
height of sixty to a hundred feet. 1t was
thought until the past few years that
these lands were worthless. The remarks
used to be "they were made just to hold
together; crow will take his rations
with him in flying over the sand hills; it
will sprout COW peas only, and when
sprouting you can hear them for miles
grunting 1t Is so hard for them to sprout,"
and like expressions. But there has
come wonderful change on that section,
and the change has been brought about
by the hand of the northern man and his
money. The section has been for many
years recognized by physicians to be the
best winter resort in America, and they
began to send their patients down there,
and many who were suffering from chron-
ic diseases become we'll and commenced
experimenting with the soil; some of
them put out fruit trees, some vines, some
vegetables, and it soon become evident
that on account of the warm general
climate, what was planted and fertil-
lied began to thrive, and as the fruit
come into bearing it showed a quality
that was exceedingly fine. And from
year to year the people have gone in and
bought land until there are thousands OF
acre of fruit, and during the season from
May until middle of August hundreds OF
thousands of tons of fruit are shipped
north. One orchard alone contains over
one hundred thousand fruit bearing trees,
vines and shrubs. All this work has
been done by the northern people who
were attracted to this section on account
of their health, and If one will stand al
the ticket window of the Merchants and
Miners Steamship Company in Boston any
day from November until April they will
see people from every New England state
buying tickets to what Is known as the
Yankee Settlement, Southern Pines.
BE sure to go via Southern Pines on
your way to Florida, as it is the shortest

ports Say General Pho Del
Pillar IL Dead.

Manila, Feb. 12.-By Associated
Press. Ut is reported that the United
States gunboat Princeton visited Tat
anes and the Calagan islands, which
were omitted from the Paris treaty OF
peace, being north of twenty degrees
latitude, raised the American flag
and appointed native governors. It. is
added the Princeton found the Japan
ese flag flying at Bayat island, and re-
Trained from landing there, pending
orders. Reports from native sources,
not confirmed, say General Pho Del Pi-
lar, the insurgent commander, died OF
fever recently.
The Princeton occupied the northern
islands under government orders. The
report that the Japanese flag was
found floating is not confirmed but
there are rumors that Japan intended
to take an island. The natives will
ingly substituted the American for the
insurgent officials and took the oath
of allegiance. The natives of Samar
and Leyte are returning to their towns
and normal condition is being re-
sumed.

Independence, Kan, Feb. 1O.-The
condition of wheat in this section of
Kansas is almost perfect for this season
of the year. The ground is in good
condition, with plenty of moisture for
some time yet. The crop is growing
some. owing to the unusually warn:
weather of the past month. Flowing
for oats commenced three. weeks ago
and still continues. A tew farmers who
began early have their oats in. The
average viii be unusually large, ow-
ing to the large amount of wheat land
lying idle, because of the drouth last
fall. Considerable alarm is felt for the
fruit, as some of the early leafing trees
are beginning TO bud now. and should
the fruit trees be forced to budding
|and blooming, followed by a severe
cold snap later ins he season, the crop
would be injureds if not ruined.
