AS TO CIGARETTES

tits well known that certain deal
ers are selling cigarettes to miners in
violation Of the statute forbidding it.
In some instances cigarettes are sold
to boys under s years of age. The
evil has reached such proportions
that it is likely that the grand jury
will take in hand those dealers who
daily corrupt the children of the
community in bold and open viola
ton of law.
The following is copy of the act
which is Chapter 276, Acts 1891:
SECTION 1. That it shall be un-
lawful for any person, firm or cor
poration to sell, give away Or other
wise dispose of, directly or indi-
rectly, cigarettes, or cut tobacco in
any form or shape which may be
used or intended to be used as a SUBJ
stitute for cigarettes, to any minor
under the age of seventeen years.
Any one violating the provisions Of
this act, or any person or persons
aiding, assisting or abetting the vio-
lation thereof, shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor, and upon conviction
shall be punished by fine or impris-
onment or both, in the discretion Of
the court.
SECTION 2. That any person who
shall in any way aid Or assist any
such minor-child in obtaining the
possession of cigarettes or tobacco in
any form used as substitute there
for, shall be gully of misdemeanor,
and upon conviction shall be fined
or imprisoned in the discretion of
the court.

DIED IN CHICAGO.
A Confederate Commodore Who
Had Been Blind For Twelve

Chicago, Aug. Commodore
Joseph E. Montgomery, the aged
Confederate naval officer who nearly
captured General Grant during the
civil war, died here today at the
home of his son, DR.. Jas. Montgom-
cry. Commodore Montgomery was
born in Carrollton, KY, in 1917, and
from youth until the war broke out
was engaged in river traffic.
At the battle of Mobile Bay he
played conspicuous part. He was
also in the engagements at Fort Pill
low and New Orleans. At Memphis
he lost his feet. He was an intimate
friend of Jefferson Davis. He lost
his sight twelve years ago and since
that time has lived in this city.

AN EDITOR CAN'T HAVE THE
GOUT.
Raleigh News and Observer.

Some of the brethren of the Ana
MAS Club, thinking it would elevate
the editorial profession for one of it's
members to have the aristocratic dis
ease of the gout, have published far
and wide that Mr.. Josephus Dan
iels, editor OF the News and Obser-
yer, is sick with the gout. For fear
this publication will cause delinquent
subrcribers not to pay up, it is here
stated that the editor is out again,
after painful sore on his foot which
prevented easy locomotion.
No North Carolina editor has yet
been able to break into the "gouty"
ranks of high living. They thrive on
high thinking and plain living.

on the Trail.
Norfolk, Va, August 4.-"Hurri-
cane" Branch, the Suffolk sheriff
and owner of the famous bloodhound
"Tiger," succeeded in running down
Bill Ames, a farmer, near Rinson,
N. c., yesterday and the man is be-
ing held charged with having re-
moved the rails that caused the
wreck on the Washington and Ply
mouth, N. G. Railroad Friday. The
dog took the trail at the scene of the
wreck and followed it for ten miles.
Ames was in his house and the
dog jumped at him. Branch at once
arrested him. Excitement at Rim
son is very high.
While following the trail sTiger"
unearthed large moonshine still in
operation, but the men had fed from
it. Revenue officers went out later
to destroy it, but the still had been
removed.
