that license from Maryland could not

AS the camp is but few hundred yards

it would be rather novel to be married

that he always tried to have Mrsi
Smith accompany him wherever he
went, and that when it was possible she
did so. She was at Rennert's and had
come up from her home in Snow Hill in
order to be with him, aud he early ex-
cused himself from his friends in the
lobby in order that she might not be left
alone in her rooms upstairs. He said
that as he grew older he was more and
more anxious to have her near him all
the time, and that it was his intention
to prevent any long separations in the
future.
The Governor is proud of his admins

New State Buildings.

The new State Building, which is
bounded by College avenue, Bladen
street and State House circle, is an i'm
posing structure. The style of architec.
ture is classic and its simplicity is i'm
posing. 1t is entirely in harmony with
the colonial architecture of the Ancient
City.
The basement of the building is of
Howard county granite, upon which
rest the walls of brick. .ornamepted with
Indiana limestone. The exterior of the
building is completed and the finishing
touches are being put on the interior.
The corridors are lined with English
vein Italian marble and are handsomely
designed. The main colonnade of the
building is on Bladen street, facing the
Governors mansion. The other en-
trance faces the new annex to the
capitol.
The first floor is to be used for the
offices of the comptroller of the treasury.
commissioner. On the second floor will
be the state library I'd signed to contain
about 10000 Volumes the law library
and the Court of Appeals.
The room for the Court of Appeals
and the adjoining consulting room have
been entirely finished and will be
occupied by the court at its next session.
These rooms are beautiful beyond
description. The panel work is of solid
mahogany sixteen and one-half feet
high, decorated with rich hand carving
historical in design.
The walls of the State House annex
were about completed this week, and
much of the marble coping. preparatory
TO erecting the roof, has been put in
place. The architect. Josiah Pennington,
of Baltimore, has endeavored to make
the style of architecture the same as the
old capitol. but it does not entirely
harmonize.
The legislative chambers are interior
rooms, ami are surrounded by the neces-
sary offices and will be lighted from
above. The chambers for the Senate
and House of Delegates extend through
two stories and are amply large for fu-
ture contingency. There will be
galleries for the visitors approached
from the second floor. The main
corridor is an extension of the present
corridor. and will lead to a beautiful
marble portico OH the front facing the
new State Building
The exterior of the building. which
is very much larger than the old capitol
building. is very plain and devoid of ex.
pensive ornamentation. The bulk of
the appropriation will be used in making
a handsome interior.

Delaware Man SWindled.

A Delaware farmer, residing just
across the line from Whiteleysburg,
Caroline county, was buncoed out OF
$500 by two sharpers last Thursday.
The farmer is named John Henry
Bullock and showed disposition to
"get rich quick" at game of cards
with two sharpers. 1t goes without
saying that they permitted him to win
good sum of money and told him If
he could put up $4,000 he could win
easily that amount The farmer and
sharpers went to Denton where Bullock k
drew $500 in crisp 800 bills and put it
in a satchel furnished by the sharpers.
He was given the grip. told to go home
with his money aud as they had bust
ness in Greensborough, they would be
along later. After parting with the
sharpers he opened the grip and found
it contained ivory chips instead of
money. Mr. Bullock discovered his loss
while on his way home, and Immediate.

alarm. The two men were captured at

The men, who were covered by the

supper at the hotel and were coolly en-.

having left their pistols in their carriage.

The men, when arrested, had plenty
of money, having four packages of

chamois skin sack filled with gold. They
paid Mr.. Hughes the reward in gold.
Farmer Bullock's son came to town to-
day about noon and deposited at the
Denton National Bank the recovered
money.
Prior to the Bullock affair the conf

and they are believed to be the same
men who few weeks since tried to
operate game on prominent farmer

The Rev. Dr. W. III. Roberts. of Pat

Presbyterian Church for 1903. The

LANGLEY'S AIRSHIP MODEL
MAKES 4 SUCCESSFUL FLIGHT

Whitewater, Va, August GA partly
successful experiment with the 15-foot
Langley airship was made yesterday
from the houseboat in the Potomac
river off this point. The aerodrome
started we'll in a straight line south
with a velocity of 10 feet per second
and flew for distance variously esti-
mated at from four to six hundred
yards. Some reflections in the wings
soon after the launching caused it to
take a downward course which it fol-
lowed rapidly and was impelled into
the water under the full power of its
engine.
There was sufficient steam generated
for rapid flight of half or three
quarters of mile. Under the full
pressure of this force the machine
struck the water and a moment later
had disappeared from view.
At given signal the model was dis
patched on its voyage. A better launch-
ing could not have been desired. The
Smithsonian scientists believed that the
highest hopes were about to be realized,
but after the first few seconds of flight
the wings were DETECTED and the flying
machine went downward until her
course was ended on the mud bottom
of the Potomac. She was travelling at
q velocity of about 40 miles an hour.
When the machine was raised from the
ater workman attempted to cover 1t
with cloth, but for long time was
unsuccessful. Its mechanism and di-
mensions were plainly seen. 1t was
equipped with four wings, two on each
side, about four by six feet, made of the
finest oil silk and held upon delicate
wooden rods. The wings were shaped

HOW MEAT is CANNED.
Scientific Process Which Preserves
the Product for Many Years.

The manufacture of timed meats.
such as canned corned beef or canned
boiled beef Is most interesting. The
work is carried on with the utmost
cleanliness, and the process is one that
has in view the retaining of all the
good properties of the meat wi lin the
walls of the can. When the meat has
been cured it receives n slight boiling,
In water. The solid meat is now ready
for the can, which has been previously
steamed and thoroughly cleaned. The
meat is stuffed into the can, a small
portion of soup is added, and the can is
Theoretically sealed. II the product
were then to be placed on the market,
only partially cooked meat would be
given, and decomposition would set in
almost within the same day. The pro-
cess. however. does not end with this.
These sealed tins are placed in steam
cookers and are exposed to a tempera-
ture sufficient not only to cook all the
meat thoroughly, but also to kill ev-
cry germ that could possibly start de-
composition of the product. AS soon
as the steam has continued sufficiently
long, the can is taken from the steam
cooker. and by means of a small steel
needle hole is punched in the top of
the can. This permits all the air to
escape, and while still hot, this hole is
again soldered by the use of a small
piece of pure tin. The result of this
extremely simple process is that the
cooked meat is enclosed in tin almost
absolutely free from air If the process
is carried out correctly and if the can
is free from leaks the meat can be kept
indefinitely without the least possibili-
ty of deterioration or alteration. A
can of meat when thus prepared should
be as wholesome after ten years as on
the day following. its manufacture

Rome, August 9.-Thc ceremony of
the coronation of Pope Plus X. took
place to-day in the basilica of ST. Pc
ter's, in the presence of the princes,
and with all the solemnity and splen-
dor associated with this, the most mag
nificent rite in the Roman Catholic
church.
AS Cardinal Macchi. the dean Of the
cardinal deacons, placed the triple
crown on the head of the venerable
pontiff, the throng of 10000 persons
gathered within the cathedral burst
into unrestrained acclamations, the
choir intoned hymn of triumph and
the bells of Rome rang out a joyful
peal.
1t is 81 years since the Romans and
Europe assisted in such function at

The great basilica. popularly sup
posed never to have been quite full,
was overfowing with humanity. The
.aapal throne, which was bewildering
4hlixture of gold. red and silver, was
erected in front of the high altar.
All the available standing space with
in the cathedral was divided into sec

certain extent kept the vast crowd in
order. In the early hours after sun
rise thick fog hung over Rome and
one bank of the Tiber could not be

Catarrh Of the Stomach is Generally
Called Dyspepsia = Something
to Produce Artificial Diges-
tion is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and Host
Of Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat Of the Difficulty, Which
is Really Catarrh.

~ X. u. S. Senator Nj. C. Butler from
II South Carolina. was Senator from
IL that state for two terms. In 4 re-
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co..
from Washington, D. c., says:
"f can recommend Peruna for dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble. have
been using your medicine for short
period and feel very much relieved.
1t Is indeed a wonderful medicine be-
sides a good tonic. IN. c. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dyspepsia
is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial
digestion. 1t cures catarrh and leaves the
stomach to perform digestion in a natural
way This is vastly better and safer than
resorting to artificial methods.
Peruna has cured more cases of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies combined,
simply because it cures catarrh wherever
located If catarrh is located in the head.
Peruna cures it. If catarrh has fastened
itself in the throat or bronchial tubes,
Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes
settled in the stomach. Peruna cures it, as
we'll in this location as in any other.
Peruna is not simply remedy for dys-
pepsia. Pcruna is a catarrh remedy.
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is gen
orally dependent upon catarrh.
