What Are Stronger ThanFact

Aulander, N. c., Oct. IL, 1900.
To Mrs. Joe Person:
My little boy was sorely troubled with
impurities of the blood, and the result
was boils and sores on his body to such
an extent that he could not rest while
lying on his back or side, but for three
weeks he had to lie with his face down,
and turn his head from side to side to
rest it. After consulting a prominent
physician he told me to try your Remedy,
which 1 did. After using it a short time
he was completely cured, and his general
health restored.
At the same time that my little boy
was afflicted with these sores and boils,
his bowels were in very bad condition,
and this medicine effected a complete
cure of them
l recommend said medicine as Great
Remedy, and would not he without it in
my home.

widely known dealers in clothing, said:
@If Maryland goes Republican it would
make us feel offish toward Baltimore, es-
pecially as New York is known to be
Democratic city and friendly to the South.
I think it would tend to injure Baltimore
if it takes that position.
Several merchants said that this was
their private view but they did not de-
sire their names used, as they were
unwilling to mix politics and business.
A large amount of goods is purchased in
Baltimore by Raleigh merchants.
Here's the sensible way the Apex News
talks about the Senatorial contest: THE
Senatorial contest has narrowed down to
Simmons and Carr, both of these gentle
men are claiming that they will get a
majority of the Democratic votes, both
have a strong following, both are good
men. therefore If you hear that Simmons
stole a leg of mutton don't believe it.
If you hear that Carr is not good DEM
oerat, don't believe it. There is nothing
wrong with the Democracy or character
of either"

"Sixty-fve per cent of those who
marched in the Trust parade in honor of

for fear that otherwise they might lose
their situations.
"One-third came from OUTSIDE the G eat

as to how trusts unscrupulously trample
upon their employees in today's trust pa
rade."

COTTON FuTUREs.

New York, March 20.-Withln the first
hour on the Cotton Exchange to-day a
rise of SG10 points was scored, this being
a fun recovery from yesterdays sharp
decline. The bun faction continued in
power throughout the session. despite the
fact that business for investment account
came in with extreme hardness. The
foundation for a rise of 4GS points on che
call, and a later additional up turn OF
4410 points consisted of very strong Liver
pool cables in place of an expected break
in sympathy with yesterdays weakness
here, and fairly good buying orders from
Europe. Supplementing these influences
were numerous advices from the cotton
belt, stating in effect that planters We're
becoming discouraged by continued de-
clines. The strength of Southern spot
markets was increased by renewed efforts
of spinners to secure further supplies,
while statistically, the situation al all
centers was admitted TO be strongest in
many months. if not in years. Rumors
that bear clique was undergoing forma-
ton exerted no positive influences upon
the market. The interior semi weekly
figures averaged up bullishly In view OF

--1v2stii,ation Indicated Foug uic
Bat No One Was Held.
Odum Ca, March 2l-This morning
about Z O'Clock seven white men and one
negro drove into town with the dead body
Of one Hiland Carter. Coroner Surreucy
of Jesup was wired for at once to hold
an inquest. On his arrival the killing was
at once investigated
1t was found that the men Wee on thu ir
way from Arlington, S. c., to Halo, Ga.
where they were going to engage in the
mill business. They struck camp last night
Just on the south side of the Altamaha
river, about ten miles from here, and
there the killing occurred. Mr. Horger tes-
titled TO the coroners jury that he and w.
NJ. Griffin were camped some distance
from the others and he knew nothing of
the killing until / O'Clock this morning
when he called to his men and was told
that Carter was dead. Griffin told about
the same story.
The others who were at the camp where
Garter was killed were c. NJ Brabham,
Henry Priches, Melvin Smoke, NJ. j.
Smoke and the negro George Lawton.
They testified that Carter was off some
thirty yards at a separate camp, and that
the negro was lying down at their camp
and fired off his pistol twice about Z
O'Clock in the direction of Carter's camp,
but did not know if this was the shot that
killed him as they were gambling, and
paid no attention to the shooting one
of the witnesses swore that the negro
could not have hit Carter, from where he
was shooting without the ball passing
through several shingle piles which was
next to impossible There was no positive
evidence as to who did the killing. The
jury decided that he came to his death
from a pistol shot fired by some party I'M
known.
The general opinion of the citizens is
that there was foul play, and that all
but Horger and w. NJ Griffin should have
been held for further investigation.

A Threatened Strike.
Darien. Ga, March pa rumor was
current here this morning that the body
of a colored raft hand had been found
floating in the river near Clarks Bluff,
few miles above the city. The Morning
News correspondent endeavored to trace
the rumor, but could get no satisfactory
informa ton. The nearest he could come
to verifying the story was that a timber
man coming down the river on a raft yes
terday had seen something floating in
lake that Hooked like the body of ne
gro He said the body looked as il it had
been badly mutilated. but he did not stop
to investigate, and did not go close enough
to it to- be sure it was a mans body. He
said he was almost sure that that was
what it was. The matter will probably be
further investigated.
There is a threatened strike among the
men a work loading the vessels at Sape-
10. The men intimated last week that they
wished their wages raised. This was done
promptly, as the steVedores had already
determined to give the men the benefit of
a recen rise in the price paid for load
ing. The men are now asking that they
be paid off every Saturday night, instead
of waiting till the vessels have been load
ed This the stevedores say they cannot
do but the men are insisting upon it. 1t
is thought that there will be no further
trouble when the men are made to under
stand that the stevedOres are not paid I'M
til the vessels are loaded. The demand is
made by about 100 men. They are most all
at work, awaiting a final answer to their
request.
The Hilton & Dodge Lumber Company
have just placed a system Of electric lights
in their saw mill at Lower Bluff, about a
mile from the city. Beginning tonight,
the mill will run night and day, nearly
doubling its capacity. This move was
