THREE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN !
Worn Out And Nervous Regained
Their Health And Beauty
By Taking Peruna,

Miss Florence Allan, a beautiful Chi :
cago girl, writes the following to DIR. S.. !
B. Hartman concerning his catarrhal :
tonic, Peruna: Z
Is Walton Place, Chicago, III. !
GAS a tonic for a system. !
Perana stands al the head i'm my esfi- !
nation. Its effects are truly wonder 7
full in rejuVenafing the entire system. J
1 keep it on hand all The time, and
never have that tired feeIing,' as J
few doses always make me feel like a.
different woman "---FIorenCe Allan. ]
Thousands of women suffer from sys-i
temic catarrh. This is sure to produce ]
such symptoms as cold feet and hands, !
sick headache, palpitation of the heart J
and heavy feelings in the stomach.
Then begins a series of experiments. !
They take medicine for sick headache. !
They take medicine for V prostra- ]
ton, for palpitation of the heart, for !
dyspepsia. None of these medicines do J
any good because they do not reach the I
cause of the complaint.
Peruna at once mitigates all these 7
symptoms by removing the cause. J
Systemic catarrh is the trouble. Sys-I
temic catarrh pervades the whole sys-
tenn, deranges every organ, weakens
every function. No permanent cure can
be expected until the systemic catarrh
is removed. ,
This is exactly what Peruna will do.
Miss Cullen Was Exhausted From Over
Study.
Miss Rose Cullen, President of the
Young Woman's Club, Butte, Montana,

Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, o.: ,
Gentlemen-"Peruna has many friends
in Butte. I cannot say too much in praise
Of it. While finishing school 1 became
very nervous and exhausted from over
study. I was weak and sick, and could
neither eat, sleep nor enjoy life. A
couple bottles of Peruna put new life in
me. 1 f1nd by having it in the house and
taking a dose off and On it keeps me in
fine health. A large number of my
friends place Peruna at the head of all
medicines."-Rose Cullen.
Peruna is especially adapted to pro-
tecting against and curing nervous dis
| eases of rundown ONE as the testi-
monial of Miss Cullen indicates.
Miss Blanche Myers, 3120 Penn street,
Kansas City, Mo-, has the following to
say of Peruna:
"During each of the past four seasons
| I have caught a severe cold, when sud-
denly chilled after an evening party,
and catarrh for several weeks would be
| the result. One bottle of Peruna cured
me, and I shall not dread colds any more
as I did.'-Blanche Myers.

EXCURSION TO ASHEVILLE.
Will Leave G~oldsboro on Tuesday
Morning, August 10.

An item of news that will cause
pleasure seekers to rejoice. was made
public here this morning. Mr.. r. E.
Pipkin, who is the veteran excursion
manager of this section, has decided
to run an excursion to Asheville on
Tuesday, Aug. 10, and will leave
Asheville on the return trip on Fri
day morning, Aug. %. This train
will leave Goldsboro at 1880 o'clock
on the morning of the 10Th and will
give three nights and two days in
the Gland of the Sky" The fare
from G~oldsboro, Princeton, Pine
Level and Selma is only $500 for
the round trip.
Such an opportunity for pleasure
seekers and sight seers will not be Of
fered again this season.
1t is useless to attempt a descrip-
ton of the scenery which will greet
the eyes of those whotake advantage
of the trip. Those who have looked
ON the grandeur of mountain scenery
are anxious to view such a sight
over again, and those who have
never stood in the awe-inspiring
presence of these prodigies of nature
cannot realize what they have miss
ed. Western North Carolina has
well been called the "Switzerland
of America" and it is a question in
the mind of the traveller if the ia
NOUS Alps ofthe old country afford
any more beautiful, enchanting OF be-
wildering scenery.

GONE TO WILMINGTON.
The Orphans of the Odd Fellows
Homo Ont For Pleasure

The Orphans of the Odd Fellows
Home Out For Pleasure.
From Tuesdays Daily Argus.
When the early train pulled out
for Wilmington this morning there
was aboard fifty bright faces with
countenances wreathed in smiles. It
was a large family of children, rang
ing all the way from five to thirteen
years Of age, but they were under
perfect control, tidy in appearance
and seemingly light-hearted and
happy. The scene would have made
glad the hearts of their dead fathers,
if they could have looked down upon
it from the three link lodge room in
the Heavenly City. The happy COM
pany was composed of the inmates of
the Odd Fellows Orphan Home,
who going to Wilmington to-
spend their annual outing. Super
intendent Brinson was going along
with the children to look after and
take care of them. Several of the
little mes had been to Wilmington
before. They knew what a royal re-
ception they would receive from the
Odd Fellows of the City by the Sea
and what good things they would
get to eat and what kindness and at
tention they would receive. Since
the last trip, which was made just
about a year ago, they had, perhaps
often recounted to each other the
presents they had received and the
pleasure which the trip afforded.
Those who had never taken the trip
were already familiar with it and
were as anxious for the day to break
this morning as is the average
youngster when the circus comes to
town. No wonder their little faces
were radiant with smiles and joyous
expectancy depicted on their BEAM
ing countenances.
The little orphans will remain in
Wilmington until next Saturday,
during which time they will be the
guests of the Wilmington Odd Fell
lows, who have made extensive
preparation looking to the entertain
ment and pleasure of the orphans.
They will also visit Southport, where
they are always given an ovation.

THE STORM
Big Tobacco Warehouse Destroyed
at Smithfeld.

~
The storm which struck Goldsboro
Wednesday afternoon about o'clock
did right much damage to shade
trees. In a number Of places limbs
were broken off and the trees split
up badly. On James street the side
walk was INSTRUCTED in a number of
places by broken limbs from trees.
Outside of the damage to trees, how
ever, there is no other damage to re-
port here, but it seems as if the full
force of the storm did not strike
Goldsboro as the following from the
Raleigh News & Observer Thursday
will show:
A travelling man who came
through Smithfield and Selma yes
terday afternoon reported that the
big tobacco warehouse of the Amer
lean Tobacco Company was blown
down and completely destroyed by
the storm about 4 O'Clock. One ne
gro who worked in the house was
injured, but not seriously. The ware
house was $50 feet long and two
stories high.
A large tree was blown down on
the roof of Mr.. Fuller's house and
broke it in. A great many trees
were blown down, but it is thought
not much damage was done to crops.
AT Selma a house was blown over
and the occupants, "a lady sick in
bed and her entire family were
| pinned inside. The house had to be
broken open to get them out, and
strange to say, no one was hurt. One
of the warehouses was damaged also.
The storm is described as having
every appearance of genuine cy-
clone. The terrific roaring could be
heard for some time before the wind
came. Two clouds seemed to meet
and whirl in a funnel-shaped mass
and then separate. Most of the storm
appeared to go in the direction of
Goldsboro.
An amusing sight in Selma was a
buggy blown over so that it was just
! balanced on two wheels, and the
frantic efforts of the man in it to get
it back by applying his weight to
the windward side. 1t is said he
finally wen the struggle.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
The Railroads Should Move Their
Tracks Off Centre Street.

Mr.. Moses Einstein, one of the
most popular and highly esteemed
citizens of the Hebrew population of
G~eldsboro, received the congratula-
tons of his host of friends Thursday
over his narrow escape from a most
horrible death hursdaymorning. He
cannot hear very well and was walk
ing with his eyes cast downward, as
is his usual custom, Gro Centre
street Thursday morning about 1890
o'clock. A heavy freight train on
the AtlanticCoa Line track, pulled
by one Of their gigantic ten-wheel
engines, was approaching from the
North and rumbling along down
grade at & ten mile gait. The crowds
on the sidewalks on either side of
the street saw the approaching train
and also noticed with breathless hor-
row that Mr.. Einstein was not not
icing the train and was slowly MAX
ing his way across the street. On
came the train and slowly it seemed
was the old gentleman walking into
the rs4Venous jaws of death. 1t was
useless to try to warn him from the
street. He could not even hear the
loud rumbling noise ofthe train. One
more step and he would have been
directly over the rail in front of the
heavy engine which was not three
feet away. The engineer saw Mr..
Einstein just in time to give a loud
which caused the old gentleman to
turn his head and jump backward as
the ponderous engine swept by with
it's grinding wheels. The cross-beam
to which the cow-catcher is attached
grazed against Mr.. Einsteins cloth
ing. 1t was an awful moment for
the spectators and everybody brough
an audible sigh of relief when the
horrible accident was averted
This is only one of the many in
stances where people have had a
narrow escape from a horrible death
on account of the bad arrangements
of the railroad tracks here, and
sooner Or later the life of some I'M
s%uspecting victim will be sacrificed on
account of such i'll arrangement.
Centre street is one of the principal
business streets in the city and on
this account there are crowds cross
ing and r~ecrossing the railroad tracks
all during the day with trains COM
ing and going in each direction. At
| noon time the railroad tracks in
front of the waiting rooms present a
busy scene with trains coming in
from all directions and passengers
making their way in and out be-
tween the trains and over the diff
ferent tracks. It is a metropolitan
scene without the safeguards in a
metropolitan city. AS the city
grows the dangers will increase. The
only solution to the difficult prob
lem is for the railroads to run their
tracks around the city. This will
prevent loss of life, save the railroads
thousands of dollars in law suits and
give the city of Goldsboro an oppor-
tunity to make Centre street one OF
the prettiest in the country.

CUTTING
Two Negro Boys, Exum Yelverton
and Walter Barnes, Engage in
a Fight at Protracted Meet
ing Near Walter.

DIR. w. B. Crawford, one of the
leading citizens of Fork township,
was in the city Saturday and brought
the news OF a cutting affair between
two negroes out in his section Thurs
day night.
The negroes are holdings p~rotract-
ed meeting out in that section and
on the night mentioned Exum Vel
verton and Walter Barnes, two ne
gro boys, about Is and II years old,
respective, went TO the meeting
and during the service they got into
an argument on the outside of the
church about a negro girl which they
both claimed as sweetheart. The ar
gument grew warn and Yelverton
drew a stick to strike Barnes when
the latter grabbed hold of the stick
and made a pass at his antagonist
with the negroes favorite weapon,
the razor.
DR.. Crawford said that the negro
who was cut was brought to him
about 1 o'clock in the night and
that he was so weak from the loss of
hood as to prevent removal from
vehicle and the surgical work had to
be performed with the negro lying
on his back in a spring wagon. He
also said that the wound was sufic-
iently deep and wide as to permit a
view of the negro's lungs while he
was breathing. His recovery is not
at all certain.

that this was the lasr of a series of en-
tertainments which the clubs have been
giving through this part Of the country,
with the consequent diminution of num-
beers and lack of programmes detraCtod
somewhat from the performances but the
~ remaining members acquitted them
selves SO well as to make one wish to
hear the clubs again under more favor
able circumstances. The clubs are COM

club were well blended and of good

of the instrumental numbers those rem
