THE OREGON's ENGINEER.
Wiley Milligan Overlooked In the
Praise showered ON the Great
III 8e5 WaFahip's Captain. II

Having talked themselves nearly
toza standstill about the achievement
OF Capt. Clark in bringing the bat
tleship Oregon through the Straits
OF Magellan mot around the
Horn, as it was published countless
times), and putting her into action
at the battle of Santiago, the emo
tionalists for the first time. should
pause to consider by what means the
gallant captain was enabled to ac-
complish that wonderful feat. A be-
lief is growing in the navy that her
engines brought the Oregon around.
Who controlled the engines, kept
them going, prevented journals from
getting hot, governed their speed,
and made sure that they did not SUI
fer the usual breakdown? I guess
that genius was Robert Wiley MILL
gan, says writer in the New York
Press.
Did you ever hear of Milligan,
chief engineer of the Oregon on that
most famous of all voyages since
Jason sought the Golden Fleece? 7
trow not. Like Brer Rabbit, he
seems to have lain low. All honor to
Clark, but there are thousand off,
GERS in the navy who could have
commanded" such ship on such
voyage. I doubt, however, if there
lives an engineer in the service who
could have equaled Milligan's work
in Ne engine-room. But Milligan re-
mains chief engineer, with the
rank of commander, and is now on
shore duty in the Norfolk navy yard,
unappreciated, unhonored and un-
sung. What in Heavens name would
batt1eship be without her engines?
A derelfct. What sent the Oregon
after the Spaniards, with 'bone in
her teeth?" Her engines, under Mil
ligan, the perfection of mechanism.
Is there no reward for the engine
room?

ADVICE FOR A WAITER.
no" Diner Made Sure That the
man Would Remember HIM
NeH Time.

One Chicago man, laboring unde,
the disadvantage of extreme provo.
cation, recently found a novel way
OF informing an arrogant waiter that
his method of serving was wholly un-
satisfactory, says the Chicago Trib-
une.
The meal had been an exasperating
one. Whenever the waiter was want
ed he could not be found. When he
was not wanted he was lowering
about the table attempting to hear
what was being said. The host and
his friends had been compelled to
ask emphatically for every accom-
pa1ssnent of the meal, even down tn
knives, forks and spoons, so by the
time the coffee and cheese had been
showed aside they were in anything
but pleasant frame of mind. Still.
throughout the meal the man who
was doing the honors retained his
composure, and did not once find
fault with the waiter in the latter's
presence. But he was reservinp his
ammunition for future delivery.
He asked for his check. The watt
er brought it with gracious bow
and it was paid. Then the host arose
with considerable dignity, and, reach
ing in his pocket, extracted quar-
ter. which he handed to the anxious
looking waiter. 80
"Now," asked the host, after he
had paid the customary tip, do. you
think you would remember me if I
came in here again?"
20, yes, sir yes, SIR I'm sure I
would replied the waiter, with a
suave smile of satisfaction. zs5 Is
"Well,'' continued the exasperated
guest, II want you: to remember, me-:
Take one more good look at me, SO
you will make no mistake. And il
you ever see me in this place in the.
future you will keep just as far away
from me as the walls will allow. ia
you should attempt to wait on me
again, ! give you fair warning that.

walked briskly from the place. The.

hour. 5s1s. &. =s3ss'1.

every right minded person. II the
present streak of law enforcement is

A PLUCkY WOMAN.
MRS. HEDGPETH FINDS A
MAN IN HER ROOM AND
GOES FOR HIM.
She Grabbed Him In the Collar and
Tried to Shoot Him But Her
Pistol Failed to Fire-The
Negro Fled, But Was
Captured and Taken
to Wilson For
Safe Keeping.

Nashville, n. c., July 27.-Last
Saturday night Mrs. Hedgpeth, a
widow of this town, was awakened
just before day. She detected that
her lamp had been put out and
struck match, whereupon she saw
a big black negro standing by her
bed with his hand on the door knob.
The plucky little woman jumped up
with pistol in one hand and caught
him in the collar with the other and
tried to shoot him, but her pistol
failed to fire. After she found that
her pistol would not fire she proceed
ed to beat him over the head with
it. The negro broke out through
the door, but she held on to him and
continued to beat him. In the scuffie
she pulled off his coat and broke his
suspenders. He finally broke away
from her and told her if she did not
give him his coat back he would
kill her. She told him she would
not do it, he would have to kill. BY
this time the neighbors had been
aroused and went to render assist
ance, but the negro fed.
Some one recognized the coat as
that of John Coppedge. Deputy
Sheriff Warren was notified. He
fastened to Coppedge's house and
found him. When he started away
he told Coppedge to get his coat and
shoes, but he could not find them.
He was carried back to Mrs. Hedg-
peth's. She recognized him as the
one in her house. His head was al
so bleeding where she had pounded
him with the pistol.
Mrs. Hedgpeth is delicate look
ing little woman and in meager cir
cumstances. She supports her aged
mother and little daughter by her
own labor. The brute Coppedge en-
tered her room through an open win
dow at the foot of her bed. He took
off his shoes before entering and left
them beside the house. In the scuff1e e
he struck Mrs. Hedgpeth on the
nose and in the mouth, making the
nose bleed freely.
The people here are indignant and
there was fear of the negro's safety
here, so Sheriff Warren took him to
Wilson yesterday.

July 81, 1903.

Col. Jos. E. ROBINSON, Colds
boro, n. c..
Dear Sir:-This is the writer's first
opportunity to let you hear from the
Goldsboro soldiers in camp here with
the Second North Carolina Infantry.
We arrived here on Wednesday
night shortly after dark and found
camp all ready and supper prepared
for us.
At reveilles, 5:25 a. NJ, all must
roll out of their tents; next comes
roll call, then breakfast, and then
we have morning drill. After the
drill, all who are not on special duty
are at liberty to leave camp until
4:3O q. m., when there is an hour
and half afternoon drill. Dress pa
rade takes place al $50 p. ~. and al
ways draws crowd of onlookers.
We are most pleasantly situated
right at the sound and the boys
greatly enjoy the fine fishing, bath
ing, sailing, etc.
Company D, is the pride of the
regiment and Balm street (named in
honr of Col. Bain) is the model street
of the camp. That we have the best
drilled and the best looking COM
pany in camp, is not remarkable, as
Goldsboro's place is always in the
front rank. The behavior of our
men has been the cause of much fav-
orable comment and our record is
unblemished. We have not had a
single man in the guard house, or
had one to anyway make himself
liable to punishment.
It does one good to see the splen-
did appetite the men bring to the
table, and the meals, under the sup
ervision of our efficient carterer, Mr..
lay lOF, are pdI o@ACOlldhCO'
The officers, Capt. Cohen, Lieuten-
ants Morgan and Prince, have won
the respect of everyone in camp and
by their splendid example, they set
the men in behavior, sobriety and
manner.
1t is safe to predict that we will all
return from camp much wiser than
before, having obtained what can be
obtained nowhere else except under
charge of such efficient officers as
ours.
The weather has been ideal, the
nights delightfully."- cool and the days
not unpleasantly warm.
There was a large delegation OF
Goldsboro people here Sunday, who
received hearty welcome from all
our boys.
With sincere regards to you and
wishing the ARGUS (Which is hailed
with delight here every day-the

HAY FEVER ABOLISHED.
Relief For This Malady Discovered
BY Medical Science
Breathe Hyomei.

IL.
Among the important additions
made to medical science in recent
years, none is more notable than the
positive announcement of a cure for
hay fever.
While this disease is not regarded
as fatal, it is certainly a most dis
tressing malady, and if anything can
be devised to cure it, great boon
will be conferred upon the human
race.
Exhaustive experiments with Hy-
omei prove that this treatment will
prevent all attacks of hay fever if
used two or three weeks before the
annual appearance of the disease and
that it may be relied upon if used
faithfully after the disease has be-
gun, to relieve at once and afford a
speedy cure.
J. H. Hill & Son have sold hun
dreds of Hyomei outfits for the treat
ment OF diseases of the respiratory
organs under the agreement to re-
fund the money if Hyomei did not
afford relief.
In selling Hyomei for the cure of
hay fever, they will continue this
eqitable plan, and want all who are
subject to this distressing malady to
begin its use at ouce, with the un-
derstanding that if it does not give
satisfaction, the purchase price is to
be refunded.
Stomach dosing cannot cure hay
fever. A change Of climate is the
only treatment that has heretofore
aborted an attack, and Hyemei,
which is breathed through a neat
| pocket inhaler coming with every
| outfit, acts upon this principle, Civ
ing in your own home climate like
that of the White Mountains or other
health resorts.
