A CLEANLY AGE.

| Twentieth Century Ideas Incline To-
ward Sanitation and Preventatives.
Nowadays scientists believe that in
cleanliness lies the secret of proven
ton of diseases.
To prevent a disease, remove the
cause.
Just as unclean habits breed many
diseases, so careless habits will breed
dandruff Improper use of another's
brushes, combs, etc. will surely cause
dandruff, and, in time, Will just as
surely cause badness.
It's microbic infection, nothing more
nor less.
Newbro'S Herpicide kills the dandruff
germ and causes hair to grow luxu-
riantly. Herpicide is absolutely free
from grease or other injurious sub
stances.

Victor Smith, that he and every other
rheumatic in that town found a cure

only one before breakfast until cured,

cure a man they will not hurt him.

A Cyclone at Monroe,
Roofs Lifted from Most of the
High Buildings in the Town
and They are Deluged
With Water.
Special to Charlotte Obse ,yer.

Special to Charlotte Obse .ver.
Monroe, Sept. 80. A cyclone
struck Monroe at 6:3O this after
upon. While no lives were lost,
considerable property damage was
done. Persons who saw the storm
say that two clouds, one travelling
from the west and one from the
south, met just a little southwest
of the town and the whole travel
ed in a funnel>shaped mass very
irregulary. A great mass of
debris caught in the whirl seemed
to be driven upward and then
downward until it was finally
dropped. Some eight OF ten store
buildings were unroofed and the
rain which accompanied the wind
fioodedthe buildings almost in
stantlY.
The wind seemed to be moving
ut quite an altitude, since only
the high buildings were caught
and little havoc was wrought near
the ground. Immense sheets of
tin, torn from buildings, were
driven through the air, apparently
two or three hundred feet high for
several hundred yards. One N ass
OF tin fell three blocks away upon
dwelling house and cut into the
roof. The roofs went from the
Central Hotel, English & Ash
crafts, G. w. Brunner's, A.
Levy's and the Beckett building
all of these large brick buildir gs.
Chimneys clattered down upon
dwelling house roofs to the great
fright of many people. Gritfin's S
livery stable, an exceedingly large
frame building, was uncovered.
Wires are down, Sc that no
news has come from the country,
but it is believed that the blow
did not extend over a large ter
rltory. Certainly It's path was
not wide.
The greatest damage to goods
was sustained by G. w. Bruner,
groceryman, and A Levy, dry
goods. The latter was preparing
for a millinery opening to-mor
row and had great deal of fancy
goods displayed. Upon these
the water fell in sheets when the
roof went off.

New Trial Granted
To James Wilcox,
North Cardinals Supreme Court
Gives Man Condemned for
Miss Crcpsey's Murder
Another Chance.

Raleigh, N. c., Sept. 3O.-The
supreme court of North Carc.ina
today handed down an opinion in
the famous Nellie Cropsey case in
which James Wilcox was charged
with the murder of Nellie Crop
sey in Elizabeth City last Novem-
ber. The court gives Wilcox n
new trial.
The case is a familiar one to the
public. Nellie Cropsey, q beau
tiful young girl, disappeared at
night from her home in Elizabeth
City. She had last been seen with
Wilcox, at one time her sweet
heart. Suspicion fell on him,
but he was not arrested. Thirty
seven days after her body was
found in Pasquotank river, and
Wilcox was arrested. He was
tried and sentenced to be hanged.
He stoutly declared his innocence
and an appeal to the supreme
court was taken.
In granting new trial the SUI
preme court says the evidence was
entirely circumstantial. The ju-
ry does not seem to have given
the necessary cautious and vigi-
liant attention to the evidence, or
the presentation of the prisoners S
case by counsel. 1t says that the
conduct of the spectators IN and
about the court was sufficient to
prejudice the Jury. "No such
demostrations," reads the opin
ion, "were ever witnessed in our
State before"
Among these demonstrations
were people leaving the court
room in body and the ringing
Of a fire alarm. The court does
not find the jury was influenced
by these things, but viewing all
of this disorderly conduct, it says
the trial was not conducted in the
proper form of law, and gives a
new trial to Wilcox, which it says
must be attended by no such de-
monstrations of lawlessneSs and
intimidation as were present on
the former occasion. The next
term of the court begins in Pas
quotark county on November II,
and the case will be heard again
at that time.

Bronson, Fla, Sept. 80. The
odore Smith and Thomas &. FAIR
cloth, the young white men who
killed the aged Lewis couple one
month ago today, were successful
ly executed by Sheriff Sutton this
morning. The trap was sprung
at II. IL o'clock and 10th necks
were broken.
Faircloth was pronounced dead
in Is minutes and Smith in IL 1-2
minutes. Both men had wonder
full nerve and ascended the scaff-
old with steady step. They had
their coffins opened and inspected
and commented on them. Fair
cloth remarked that they were all
right, and both men addressed the
immense crowd with clear and un-
broken voices.
Faircloth was baptised by Rev.
j. b. Holley of Gainesville in the
box which was to contain his cof-
fin in jail this merning. Their
nerve was beyond description,
and there was no excitement.
The sons and daughters of
Lewis witnessed the execu ion.
The bodies of the banged men
were turned over to relatives for
interment. Smith had young
wife and baby. Fuircloth was en-
gagged to he married and Just he
fore the execution expressed a de-
sire to have the ceremony per
formed, but the sheriff would not
permit this to be done.

Special to The Observer.

Fort Mill, S. c., Sept. 30
When the people of this indus.
trlous town awoke this morning
their attention was called to the
fact that scene peculiar to the
wild and turbulent West had
been enacted here. 1t was moth
my short of bank robbery, a
genuine bank robbery done in the
most approved manner, with
ncatness and despatch. At 3:55
O'Clock this morning the savings
bank was forcibly entered, evid
emily by experts. Entrance was
effected through the front door
and by the aid of explosives the
outer and inner vault doors were
blown open and then the doors of
the costly safe with its time lock
was blown into scrap iron. Evi-
dences of the explosion are seen
all about the room, but no serl~
Gus damage to the building is ap-
parent. All the valuable papers
in the vault were more or less
SCARED and mutiIated and the
officers of the bank have spent
the entire day recovering and
sorting them. With several
hundred dollars in bills dsmaged
by the explosive and some silver,
either overlooked or intentionally
left, about 5000 has been recov-
cred. The thieves got the bal
ance.. ..on hand, amounting to.about
so, 500 in round number.
The business of the bank will
not be effected by the loss. 1t is
just matter of few months or
a years p rrofits A statement
signed by Capt. S. E. White,
president, is posted on the door
scying the bank will be open for
business tomorrow.
There has not been the slight
est uneasiness among the dcposi-
tors, for 1T was generally known
that the cash on hard was but
small part of the assets of the
bank.
There>are no clues to the perpe-
traitors of the deed. They must
have esca ped through the country
as there were no passing trains
until s O'Clock this morning.
A large wall clock hung near the
vault had its equilibrium disturb
ed by the conclusion and stopped
thereby marking the time of the
occurrence. A number of tools
belonging to the robbers and
some which were stolen from
blacksmith shop nearby we're
left on the floor. People in all
directions in the country are re-
ported to have heard the robbers
escaping past their houses in We
hiclcs. Four men, one of whom
cerried u satchel, or said to have
been seen crossing field one and
one. half miles from town. This
is the most reasonable clue, for
the robbers would hide in the
creek bottoms until night and then
after dividing the spoils scatter
in different directions. Cashier
Meacham says he has had kindly
offers Of assistance from other
banks, but says he will need moth
ing more than perhaps accommo-
dation in the matter of exchange.
Late this afternoon a two-once
bottle which had contained the
nitro -glycerine was found in the
band. The $500 safe is total
wreck.

REvERE's HOUSE FALLING INTO DECAY.

Paul Revere's house in Boston, Mass.
is sadly in ned of repair. The ravages
Of time are visible to even the most
casual observer. and unless something
is done speedily to preserve 1t those
who value 1t as relic Of Revolution
airy times will soon see the last OF it.
The house was probably 100 years
old when Revere purchased 1t, some
years prior to the Revolution, and was
in its palmy days one of the very best
of its class.
Just now the ancient house is unoc-
cupied, save for a store upon the
ground floor, but its Interior has re-
Gently undergone quite remarkable
transformation with view to render
ing 1t attractive for light housekeeping
among the Italians, who are most like
ly to reoccupy 1t. The little stuffy store
in which Paul Revere could never rec
ognize to-day his once cozy parlor is
now devoted to the sale Of Itlain gro
ceries, stock of edibles, strange to
the eye of an American, occupying

allow three or four persons to turn
around in. One might visit the place
every day for a month and never hear
word of English spoken, either by the
proprietor or his patrons.
The ancient kitchen in the rear Of the
store was long since subdivided into
various apartments. one Of which is a
bedroom; another, containing the old
fireplace. being now merely a deposit
tory for barrels Of rubbish. Nobody
now knows anything about 1t, but 1t is
probable that the second and third
floors bear little resemblance to-day to
what they did in Revere's time for he
moved away about 1905, and since then
the house has been devoted to variety
OF uses.
The earliest changes were probably
made half century ago, when ..e
house was popular boarding place for
Cape Cod sea captains, and no doubt
