Consumption,

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott sEmulsionisthem
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined Of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

TAR HEEL BIRDS WON.

The chicken main yesterday at
Wrightsville ended most gloriously for
North Carolina and most disastroqsiy
for South Carolina, as the Tar Heel
fowls cleaned the Palmetto State
birds up in fine style. The main con-
sisted of nine fights and six of these
were won by the chickens owned by
the Clinton and Warsaw poultry asso-
Citations. The other three were won
by the chickens of the Marion, S. c.,
association. Great interest was shown
in the fights, which were witnessed by
a large crowd of sports. The main
also attracted many chicken fanclers
from different points of the state, and
from South Carolina. The chickens
brought to the main by the rival asso,,
Citations were of the very finest breed
and numbered about Fifty.
Another main has been arranged be-
tween the same two associations for
the Fourth of July at Wrightsville.-

EVERY FARM HOUSE 10 GO ON EllP.
Detail of Rural Mail Delivery
Experiments.

Within two years man standing IN
indianapolis will be able to put his
finger on every farm house in Indiana
that is, on the map, says the In
dianapolis News:
This is one of the details of the
rural mail delivery experiments that
the Government is working out in In
diana. If in this State, where the
experiment is tried first, it is found
to be practicable to locate every farm
house and keep constant record OF
its changes in location and the build
ing of new houses, it will only be a
few years when a person will be able
to put his finger on any farm house
in the country. The work, now be-
ing quietly done in an upper room in
the Majestic Building, is the begin
ming of one of the most interesting
records the Government has ever made.
The announcement is made from
Washington that every farm house in
Indiana is to be reached by rural
mail delivery carriers within two
years, which means that the work of
locating every house in the State will
be completed in that time.
Since April l seventeen Indiana
counties have been supplied with
rural mail service. In fourteen of
these the work of making complete
record of the rural districts has been
completed. Every farm house and the
population of the country districts
have been set forth in carefully pre-
pared maps, which locate all roads
and indicate their character-wheth-
er dirt or gravel, good or bad.
These beautiful maps are rolled up
and fled away in the Office of Super
intendent F. 3. Rathbone, of the
Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and
Michigan district, located in the
Majestic Building.
So complete is this information, by
counties, that the Al, 9s7 farm houses
in fourteen of the seventeen couaties
have been located down to their very
acre.. 1t is found that the rural popu-
lation of these Al, 997 homes is PIG, $50
persons. Information can be had con-
cerning ages and sex. The following
is part of the information compiled
for these counties:
The measurements of roads, both
gravel and dirt. in counties whose
records of this kind have been thus
far left vacant are being made now.
The statistics for the maps of Gibson,
Posey and Delaware counties, whose
complete county service was instituted
by experts from Washington, are now
beingEcompiled in Indianapolis, and
they will be complete in a short time.
It is not known yet how valuable
these complete records will be. There
are many ways in which the maps,
when completed for the entire State,
can be used with very great effect in
promoting business, and they will be
very valuable for the information of
the public, if the Government decides
to give that information by a repro.
duction of the maps.

Building and Lean Taxes.

Columbia, April 21-Messrs W.. D.
Melton, John P. Thomas Jr., and Z.
]. Shannon, as committee represent
ing the building and loan associations,
had conference today with Comp
troller General Jones. The committee
went over the whole situation with
Mr.. Jones and explained the position
and contention of the building and loan
associations, and that they were not
trying to dodge any taxes. The com
mittee had another conference in the
afternoon with Mr.. Jones, which
Assistant Attorney General Townsend
attended.
No announcement is yet ready as to
the final determination of the matter,
but the expectation is that there will
be a perfect understanding as to ex-
actly what is taxable and what is not
under the building and loan plans

Perhaps the most successful lecture
we ever heard in this country was
delivered by Josh Billings. He said
to me shortly before his death, in 1885.

ed at the vitality Of the old lektur'
which / have read for the last twenty
three years or the road. In the first
place, every line Of it was published
in the New York Weekly and the
Poughkeepsie papers; then it was put
in three different books; then it was
put into more than 100 newspapers as
/ have delivered it; then I have read it
in every city on this continent that
has Is, 600 people, and in hundreds Of
towns that have not 2, 600 people, and
it never has had anything added to it.
but much cut away from it; and it
is now read from the same book it
was first written in; and still the
brave old manuscript fights a good
fight. 1 read it six nights in Cali

be some sand in the old words. New

CONSTABLE H0HIE SUSPENDED.
Given Vacation Of Ten Days for
Raiding Trenholm Residence.
Chief HAnMET MAKES HIS REPORT
To Gov. Hayward After Visiting
Charleston.

Columbia, April 21.-Governor Hey
ward today finally settled the Char
lesion difficulty. It has been a source
of ANNOYANCE to him and he has IN
dertaken to do the right thing by all
interests and to all concerned and
hopes that this will be the end OF the
incident and that he will never again
have occasion to have such thing to
occur again. He has again made his
position perfectly clear, if that were
really needed, and he has hit right
out from the shoulder i'll what he'tas
done and had to say in concluding the
whole matter.
AS has been already noted Chief
Hammet was detailed to Charleston to
make a thorough investigation of the
whole affair and to report on the con-
ditions that he found in Charleston,
and especially to look into the raid on
the private residence of which COM
plant was made. Chief Hammett has
made his report and, as a result OF
this report, Division Chief Howie has
been suspended for ten days for grave
lack of discretion in raiding private
residence in which there was no pos
sibility of illicit liquor being stored.
But for the unfortunate instructions
issued by Chief Hammet-which do not
relieve him from censure also-the
affair would have been more severely
dealt with. That Chief Hammet was
unfamiliar with the streets of Charles
ton, and was ignorant Of the fact that
be was ordering Chief Howie to raid a
private residence, mitigates Chief
Howie's offence to a large extent in
the opinion of the Governor. This
conclusion has been arrived at after a
thorough investigation and careful
consideration. Chief Hammet's re-
port included a statement that the
blind tiger situation in Charleston
had been materially improved by
Chief Howie's work and there is pros
pectively more improvement.
There will be no cessation Of Wig
orous enforcement Of the dispensary
law in Charleston and elsewere. Gov
ernor Hayward intends to do all that
be legitimately can for the proper en-
forcement of the dispensary law in
the State, but this does not mean that
he will countenance the invasion OF
homes, unless the fact is positively
known that liquor is being stored
there in violation of law.
No one deprecates more than does
Governor Hayward the unfortunate
occurrence which has made this action
necessary, and in the further enforce
ment of the dispensary law the
thoughtless and unnecessary invasion
of any home will be carefully guarded
against. But Chief Howie and all
other constables must recognize that
the law must be enforced.
Governor Heyward has had many
letters and interviews upon this Incl
dent in Charleston and be has under
taken in an honest and sincere way to
do full justice and place the response
bility and to see that similar occur
renee will not occur again.
Chief Howie will be notified of his
suspension for ten days and that some
other officer now on the force will be
placed in Charleston for the period
covering the suspension, after which
Chief HOWE will resume his work in
Charleston

One Iackey's PRAYER.

Admiral Bob Evans tells this one,
says the New York Times.
"Among the 'jackies of the Ameri-
can fleet that did business at Santiago
was an extremely pious chap-a lad
from Vermont. We had been telling
him all along that each day would
probably witness the long-looked for
battle between the American and the
Spanish vessels. When he prayed that
night he placed special stress upon the
plea that the vessel upon which he and
his comrades-in-arms we're serving
might escape disaster, saying, among
other things:
I" oh Lord, shield US from the shells
and other projectiles Of the enemy; but
if any shells and solid shot do come
to our vessel pray Thee that they
may be distributed as prize money is
distributed-mostly among the Off
GERS.

horsed his hearers not to Smake the

iine the State Of Missouri for its pros
ecntion OF 4sise packing. houses, he
said Tie federal government seems

law and prefer the use OF injnnc-
tions. =
Mr. Bryan spoke with earnestness Of
the hostility of most of the large daily
papers to- the Democratic party and
said that some Of the professed Demo

ed for the punishment OF every offend
ing official.
