Has Oisanneared.

Nels Nelson. Il carpenter who has
been about the city almost since it's
inception, has been missing since
before Christmas and so far no trace
of him can be found, Search has
been vigorously prosecuted by the
authorities, but so far without avail
From all accounts it seems that when
last seen he was at the Pioneer engine
house, when suddenly he exclaimed
some one was after him and bOlted
through the door. The man present
did not think anything of the occur
ance at the time and paid no atten-
tion to him. Nels was hard drinker
and at times was deranged 1t is the
popular impression that he became
and wandered away into
the woods, freezing to death. The
search is still being prosecuted.

THE RIGHT THING TO PUT ON.
(BsnSOn'S Plaster Is Pains MaSter.)

From the natural impulse TO ''put some-
thing on" a painful spot ali applications
for the relief of pain have arisen.
The most successful have ever been poul-
tices or plasters, and the best of these Is
BensOn's Porous Plaster.
No other has anything like the same
power as curative agent; it is highly and
scientifically medicated and its standard
is advanced year by year.
Use BensOn's Plaster for coughs, colds,
chest diseases, rheumatism, grip, neuralgia,
kidney trouble, lame back, anG other all
ments that make Winter a season of suffer-
ing and danger. 1t relieves and cures
quicker than any other remedy.
Do not accept Capsicum, Strengthening
or Belladonna plasters i'll place of Benson's,
as they possess none of its curative power.
Insist on having the genuine.
The people OF every civilized land have
testified for years to the superlative merit
of Benson's Plasters; and 5000 physicians
and druggists of this country lave declared
them worthy of public confidence
In official comparisons with others, Ben
sons Plasters have been honored with
| ffty.tiCe highest awards.
For sale by all druggists, Or we will pre-
pay postage on any IL mber ordered in the
United States on the receipt of 25c. each.

Though a Community of Common Interest
Yet Every Week Brings its Changs With
Regard to People Well Known.

Bennett Todd, aged ninety-three
years, the oldest citizen in Caroline
county, died at his home at Concord
oA Saturday last.
John Reed of near Milton, was in
stantly killed at Milton, by being
struck by locomotive on the Queen
Anne's railroad. Mr.. Reed was driving
out of the town and across the railroad
tracks.
The Bend session of the Wilmington
Conference commenced this morning
in Wilmington, to which place it was
changed from Seaford because of an
epidemic of smallpox there.
The temperance people of Kent
county are complaining about the
large number of speakeasies that are
now said to be in existence The Of
icer of the law claim that it is almost
impossible to indict the violators of
the prohibitory law.
Senator Wellington has made very
few friends by assisting Senator Carter
in talking the River and harbor bill to
death. Improvements in many of the
wvter ways of Maryland must necess-
sarily be delayed until another ses-
sion of Congress.
Baltimore is to have a new evening
paper, the first issue of which
appeared this week. Col A. B.
Cunningham, late editor of the
Morning Herald, will be the manag-
ing editor, while Max Way will occupy
the city desk. The name selected is
the Baltimore Star, and it is to be the
organ of the regular Democratic or.
ganiZation.
Charles H. McCarter, who was the
only surviving son of the late Col
James M. McCarter, died suddenly
Saturday week at his home near Pres
ton. Col. McCarter was pastor of the

diseases put together, and until the
last few year was supposed to be in
durable. For great many years
doctors pronounced it local disease,
and prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science had proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.

W. J. BRYAN'S VIEWS.


Nashville, Tenn, July "a special
from Monteagle to the Banner says:
W. ]. Bryan, who arrived here yester-
day, said, in talking of the Fourth Of
July, that 1t would be a Islander on
those who wrote the declaration Of
independence to say that 1t was pro-
mulgated as a temporary expedient.
He declared the constitution and dec
laration to be inseparable. Mr.. Bryan
said the nation will never outgrow
the declaration until 1t forsakes the
doctrine of the consent of the gov.
erned. The abandonment of the dec
laration, he averred, would cause us
to lose the respect of all nations and
the adoption Of brute force policy
would ultimately lead to the down
fall Of the republic. Imperialism
he said, is the logical outcome of the
commercial spirit and the country
is engaged in war Of conquest for ne
other reason than that those II
charge of the government think The
exploitation of the Philippines will
prove profitable. The tendency of the
times, he said, is toward the creation
of an aristocracy of wealth and thu
REIMBURSEMENT of those virtues thai
are essential to the being of free
and respectable people.
