and Has Not Returned.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York World has the following in
teresting item in his correspondence:
"A. II. Harris, of North Carolina, is
here promoting the Appalachian forest
reserve plan. He was formerly a law
yer in st. Louis. One day he left his
office to go to luncheon and hung a
sign Back in twenty minuets' on the
door. He never did go back, for while he
was out he received a business offer from
North Carolina and left for that State at
once.
when Harris entered the House res
taurant today the first'man he saw was
Representative Joy, of st. Louis, who
had the next office to him twenty years
ago and whom he had not seen since.
L thought you were coming back in
twenty minutes?' said JOY.

CAUTION.

This is not a gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to pur-
chase for 75c. the only remedy universal
ly known and a remedy that has had the
largest sale of any medicine in the world
since 1868 for the cure and treatment of
Consumption and Throat and Lung trou-
bles without losing its great popularity
all these years, you will be thankful we
called your attention to Boschee's Ger
man Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists and
others that are cheap and good for light
colds, perhaps, but for severe Coughs,
Bronchitis, Croup-and especially for
Consumption, where there is difficult ex-
pectoration and coughing during the
nights and mornings, there is nothing like
German Syrup. Sold by all druggists in
the civilized world.

TRIAL SET FOB RspAY.

Especial to the News and Observer
Fayetteville, n. c., 14.-Superior court,
for the trial Of criminal cases only, is
now in session, Judge Cook presiding.
The trial of e. l.. Utley for the killing
of Theodore B. Hollingsworth, night
clerk of the Hotel Lafayette, has been
set for Thursday. A special venire of
two hundred has been ordered.
1t is said that the owners of the three
lines of Cape Fear River steamboats,
have reached an agreement. They will
use the same agents here and at Will
mington, also the same wharfs, and run
under a daily schedule. Every effort will
be made to make especially attractive the

One of our recent representatives, who
has observed both systems, has suggest
ed that there should by all means, be in
North Carolina a monthly sales day en-
the first Monday in the month, for all
court sales of realty, all sales of real
estate under mortgage. He says that it
is the practice in South Carolina and
Georgia; and that it will insure a crowd
Of bidders and better prices, and that

erty of the needy and unfortunate is be-
ing sacrificed daily for want of notice.
and lack of bidders. That if all court
sales had to be on the first Monday, the
leading court day in every county, it
would ensure better and fairer prices in
ever county in the State
The above is worthy of attention. We
have seen most important sales attended
by few bidders, and other sales where
there were either no bidders at all. or
two who bought in the unfortunate s
property at a mere song.
