that 1t is entirely hidden by the LAST

fold 1t and the coin inside has disap-
peared.
The method is as follows: Take a
dime and privately put piece of wax

of the handkerchief with the waxed
side up; at the same time bring the
corner of the handkerchief marked A

Feeling deep interest in the success

cess is largely due to the leaders and
representatives we have in the Senate

being an old soldier of the Confederacy,
and believing that to the victors belong
the spoils, l write you in the interest
of noble Christian gentleman. He is
second to no nan in the State. And is
an honest, upright gentleman in every
sense of the word. And will compare
with the very best legal knowledge we
have in the State. He will make Sena-
tor that North Carolina will be proud of.
While we have had many Senators in the
highest legislative body in the United
States, l do not think any one of them
could make us better Senator than the
Hon. G. 3. Watson, of Forsyth county.
He is an old Confederate soldier and
served four long years in the unleasant
ness between the States. If the people
expect to do anything for him, it is now
the time to do it. He is like Myself, he's
getting somewhat aged, and ere long
will be compelled to retire from the
stage of action. Then some of the younger
aspirants can take his place. l hope the
Legislature will, in their wisdom, elect
him to the United States Senate

No Liquor in Union County.
Monroe Enuuirer.)

On the last day of December the dispen-
sary which has been in operation here
since Jan. 1, 1898, closed up business, and
there is not now a spot in Union county
where liquor may be legally sold. The
law abiding people of this town and
county ought to resolve to see to it that
blind tigers cannot live anywhere in I'm
ion county. No matter whether one be
an advocate of bar rooms, dispensaries
or prohibition, it is the law now that
liquor shall not be sold at all in this
county and every good citizen has duty
to perform in seeing the law upheld
