BUGGY STRUCK BY HOSE WAGON
Child Miraculous Escapes Three Fire Alarms
Newbern in Darkness.

Especial to the News and Observer)
New Bern, Oct Sit was miracle
that Miss Effie Alphin and little Gve-
year old Flora Brock, daughter of r. l..
Brock, OF Richlands, were not crushed to
death tonight under the wheels of the
Atiantlc nose wagon as it dashed UP
Broad street in response to an alarm of
fire.
The whole city is in darkness owing TO
the recent decision of the Board of Alder
men to have no more lights until a new
plant is erected, and as the hose wagon
dashed up the residential part of the city
IL was practically impossible to see, there
being no lights displayed. The wagon
struck the buggy, hurting the chilli to the
ground. Fortunately only a few severe
bruises were sustained -necessitating the
nasty summoning of a physician. Three
nre alarms were sent in tonight but the
fires were very insignificant.

THE CABINET MEET.
Ths President Begins Work on His Message
to Congress.
(Bv the Associated Press.


Washington. Oct. S.-Nothing impor-
tant developed at the Cabinet meeting to-
day. The President talked over the work
OF the various departments with his ad-
yisors. He has begun the preparation of
his message to Congress and desires to
familiarize himself with all the questions
pending in the departments. The conflict
that has arisen between the military and
civil authorities in the Philippines over
the issuance of a writ of habeas corpus
by the Supreme court for a civilian en-
ployee orders deported by the military
authorities was touched upon incidentally
But Attorney General Knox was not
called upon for an opinion. In the course
of the meeting the President spoke with
qualification over number of kilograms
he had received commencing the ap-
pointment yesterday of Ex-Governor
Jones, of Alabama, to the district judg-
ship of Alabama. Some of the tele-
grams were from prominent Republi-
can leaders and others were from me-
groes in various parts of the country.

.G|ST OF NEW TREATY
The Canals Neutrality Guar
anteed by Us
England is Relieved Of This Guarantee Which
is Assumed by the United States
in Toto,
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, >Oct. S.-There has been no
surrender by England to the United
States in the matter of the new Isthmian
canal treaty according to the best author
ity here. 1t is said to be equally true
that the United States has sacrificed no
principle in these negotiations, and the
effect of contrary statements is depreca-
ted as likely seriously to jeopardize the
chances of it's consummation by the con-
vention which shall finally and peacefully
settle an issue that has been a source
of danger for the past fifty years
1t is said that what actually has hap
pened is that each side has preserved the
underlying principle of the Clayton Bull
wer treaty, and the new convention will
provide for waterway, neutral at all
times, and open to commerce Of the world.
The Clayton Bulwer treaty, however,
drawn half century ago, has proved to
be defective in mechanism for giving ef-
feet to this purpose. The new treaty
simply rrovides this mechanism. England
is relieved from the guarantee, which in
her case was only troublesome and
which, being assumed by the United
States in toto, is quite as effective.
AS viewed from the American point
even, there was no surrender on Eng
lands part in seeking this relief mas
much as the active mentioned principle is
reiterated and affirmed as binding upon
the United States. AS for the form o1
the 4-oo4v. it may be stated that it en-
bodied, in substance, the amendments te
the Hay Pauncefote treaty which were
adopted by the Senate, and beyond that
the changes are believed to be textua
rather than substantial

Some time later learned that one of these families so remembered by me was so impoverish ed that the only way in which the wife could cook that turkey was by cutting slices from it and toasting or roasting them over fire of chips.

We have heard a great deal about "heart
TO heart talks" The little talks where
people get right down to honest reason, to
common sense.
You have no doubt at some time or other
experienced the annoying and painful symp-
toms Of indigestion. Digestion is the pro-
cess by which nature transforms our food,
by means Of various juices called digestants,
into blood which is then carried throughout
the body and used TO make flesh, muscle,
bone, nerve, brain and material of every
kind OF which the body is composed.
Indigestion may arise from a variety OF
causes, but generally because some OF the
elements which make up the digestive juices
are lacking.
Undgested food gives you all kinds of
trouble.
In the frst place you have most distress
Ing feeling in your stomach, especially after
eating. Soon this undigested food ferments,
the gas distends the stomach, and in its ef-
forts TO escape, it causes belching. 1t also
causes pressure against the nerves and
arteries leading to the heart, giving rise in
the mind OF the sufferer to the idea that he
has heart trouble. Nothing could be further
