The Hatteras Wireless Station

Work on the wireless telegraph station
of the De Forrest Company on Cape
Hatteras has been in progress since
February 18TH Tt is being constructed
under the supervision of G. II. Barzer,
electrical and mechanical engineer of the
company.
The tower which is being built at Hat
teras will be POS feet high. The base
will be % feet square with summit of
s feet square. On this will be erected
a mast almost as high again. The tower
will be held in position with cables and
anchors weighing about 100 tons The
anchors are buried in the sand some dis
lance from the tower, and are attached
with 7-8 cables. The telegraphers' quar-
tiers will be located at the base where
the receiving and sending instruments
are placed. The people who live in the
vicinity of the tower were alarmed at
first, fearing that in a gale the high
tower might be blown over, and threaten
ed to move out of range, but with some
persuasion they were convinced that the
structure will be perfectly safe.
The Americana eForrest system of
sending messages through the air. is the
latest, says the Norfolk Landmark. The
company will have stations covering the
Atlantic coast from New Foundland to
Patagonia. More practical points on the
coast will be covered first, but later the
extensions will be made.
The present station of the DeForrest
Company will be located at Sandy Hook
Cape Hatteras, Savannah, Mobile and
at some point in Central America. These
stations are being equipped with the
very best instruments, and will be for
commercial purposes principally.
The DeForrest system is being in
stalled on nearly all of the coastwise
lines and will prove of great value to
commercial interests
BY the time the government and sew
eral private companies complete their
arrangements, the Atlantic coast will be
thoroughly equipped with the wireless
tclegraphy system.

PRIICHARD IS BOSS
10 Crack His Whip atGreens-
boro on 9Th of April.
The Only Co Germ of Norh Carolina is to Keep
W Party Organization and GET
Federal Pie.
washington Postl

The Republican State committee OF
North Carolina has been called to meet
at Greensboro April 9th to perfect its
organization, made necessary by the re-
tirement Of ex-senator Pritchard from
Tarheel politics prior to going on the Dis
trict of Columbia bench. The State is
more or less concerned as to the name
of the new chairman and of the national
committeeman, as Judge Pritchard at
present holds both those places.
Mr.. Zeb Vance Walser, of Lexington,
former attorney general of the state,
and Mr. Thomas Rollins, of Asheville,
Judge Pritchards n-inlaW, seem to
Re vieiEg about equally for the State
craftsmanship. 1t is probable that one
or the other of them will be chosen.
Thus far it is very uncertain as to who
will be the national committeeman.
Judge Pritchard has a majority of the
State ccmmittee ready to do his bid
ding and it is conceded that he will
name his successor for that office.
One thing is ccrtain-that President
Roosevelt will have the delegates from
North Carolina at the next national con
vention The Presidents policy toward
the Lily Whites in tho South has stamped
out that brand CT Republicans Of whom
Judge Pritchard was chief. But that has
not married Judge Pritchard's enthusiasm
for the President, and he will undoubted-
ly see to it that the new member of the
national committee is loyal admins
tration man. He would have done so in
any event. and all the more so now, as
the President has put him under obliga-
tion by an appointment to q good Fed
eral Office The new national committee
man will also have control of all the
Federal offices in the State, as there are
now no Republicans in the Congressional
delegation.
There will be no effective opposition to
this programme, but there are still a few
North Carolin who have
their fighting clothes on. and who would
like to deliver the delegation to some
other Presidential candidate. Mr.. V. S.
Lusk of Asheville. is helping in the hos
tilities, so arc ex- District Attorney

ers. The hope of carrying North Caro-

movement was crushed, and their CON

functory character.

PURE BLOOD
Necessary to Life.
vinol Makes il.
POOR BLOOD CAUSES ERUP-.
TONS AND WEAKNESS.
vinol / Makes Pure, Rich,
Red Blood.
BECAUSE WE KNOWN THIS
WE GUARANTEE ITS ACTION.

Impoverished blood is q sure sign of
internal disorders. We see every day
too many people whose faces plainly
show that there is something radically
wrong.
We want all of our fellow-citizens to
know of our splendid blood purifier
and blood maker.
We refer to Vinol.
Vinol, as we have before stated, is a
purely scientific preparation.
Vinol owes its virtue to the fact that
it contains in highly concentrated
state the active curative principles,
taken from the livers of live cods-the
same elements that formerly were
found in cod-liver oil, and which made
it famous.
Vinol does not contain the grease or
fat that characterized cod-liver oil and
made it in many cases worthless.
Vinol acts upon every one of the
great vital organs, and by invigorat-
ing and giving them strength, enables
them to properly perform their func-
tions.
Vinol's effect on the stomach is mar
velous. 1t tones up this, the greatest
of the organs of the body, and enables
it to obtain from the food which is
taken into it the necessary elements to
create flesh and muscle tissue, bone
structure and pure, rich, red blood.
We are in receipt of letter from a
Sayation Army woman which reads as
follows:
81 took Vinol after bad attack of
grippe, and SO much good did it do me
that persuaded my sister to take it.
She was all tired out Had no appe-
tite and her blood was very poor. 1t
did her as much good as it did me. -
BETSY HABERsHAw, 71s River St., Fall
River, Mass. IT,. ~
Won't you please come in and
see us :? We are always glad to
extoI the merits of VinoI.
We will give you back your
money if you don't find VinoI
will do all we claim it will. Could

st. John. Kan. Nov. 16.-This town
has genuine sensation in the case of
a little boy. the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
William Mcbride. DR.. Lines, the at
tending physician, says:
Scarlet Fever of a very malignant
type brought this child very near to
death and when the fever left him, he
was semi-paralyZed in the right leg
and right arm. He also lost hearing
in his right ear and his mind was
much affected.
His parents tried another treatment
for time and when L was recalled l
found that he was having spells very
like Epilepsy and was very bad and
gradually growing worse. l advised
the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills and in
n short time the child began to i'm
prove. Inside of week the nervous
spasms or epileptic seizures ceased al
together
Mr.. and Mrs. Mcbride have made a
sworn statement of the facts and DR..
Jesse L. Lines has added his sworn
statement saying that Dodd's Kidney
Pills and nothing else cured the fits.
