the entrance to Fair Japan" probably
is the most imposing and picturesque
building in the entire Worlds Fair
grounds. 1t is a replica, complete in
every detail, of the famous entrance to
the Temple of Nikko, probably one of
the most revered places of worship in
all Japan Just beyond the Nikko gate
is the typical street in Toxic, with boots,
bazaars and japanese forms of amuse-
ment, such as would be found in any
typical japanese city of the better class.
Crossing a gently sloped bridge of Jap
anese design one enters the theatre where
the Geisha and japanese fencers and
other entertainers hold forth.
To the left of the theatre is the tea
garden, replica in miniature of the
Imperial Gardens in Toxic, with cas-
cades, lagoons, dwarf shrubbery and
other artistic features. Located in the
garden is a modern tea house in which
fifteen of the beauties of the most fash
ionable tea houses in Toxic, Yokohama
and other well known Japanese cities
serve the public with light refreshments
of all kinds.
Taking all in all, and in view of the
fact that just at present everything of a
Japanese nature is more or less in the
public eye, Fair Japan" is all that its
name implies, and is one of those places
along the Pike well worthy of visit
from the pleasure seekers who will flock
to st. Louis this summer.

Every new system that has bettered
the condition of the world was misun-
derstood at first. State control is no
exception. Those who have thoroughly
studied it's principles and learned how
it works where, in different forms, it
has been put into operation, believe it
alone will solve the liquor question.
"Inasmuch as the dispensary system
sanctions the sale of liquor as bever-
age to anyone and everyone who chooses
to buy, we cannot conscientiOnsly
advocate that system.-Barre Tele-
gram.
To the above misconception of the
system the Randolph Herald replies as
follows:
"No such system as that dispensary
or other, could ever be introduced into
the State. But as a matter of fact the
chief point in favor of a similar system,
favored by many for Vermont, is that
the keenest discrimination could be
shown under it, and would be shown
were the incentive of private gain taken
away"

Panther in Shrewsbury.

The residents of the village of Shrews-
bury are much agitated over the appear
ance in that vicinity of some large wild
animal, presumably panther. Several
farmers have lost sheep and calves with
in the last few weeks, and John Butter
fly, who lives near Shrewsbury peak,
says that he has heard loud squaling in
the woods several different times. Her.
bert Gleason, an old bear hunter who
lives in the village, tells of seeing tracks
of some strange animal in a muddy
brook bed in a neighbours pasture. Glea-
son has killed several bears and lynx
but says he never before came across
tracks in the woods like these made by
this animal. The carcasses of three deer
partly eaten, that We're found recently,
strengthened the belief that the invader
is a panther. Several hunting parties
have been organized, but as yet they
have not been successful. 1t has been a
long time since panther has been killed
in Vermont, Windsor county having fur
nished one about 80 years ago. Samuel
Kirk of Rutland saw full grown otter
one day last week while fishing in Cold
river. This valuable fur bearer is also
very rare in that locality and is supposed
to be practically extinct in Vermont,

Paul Kruger dies in Switzerland, an

all the obstinacy of an iron nature. But
his followers would not have him sacri-

able prominence as soldier, statesman
and diplomatist by sheer force of char
acter and shrewd intellect. He fitted
himself by work in the executive council
through years preceding the war of
independence in 1881. In the following
year he was elected to the presidency,
and was twice reelected, so that the
young Beers came to look upon him as
their leader for life. He ruled with a
power almost absolute for nearly 16
years, and it was confidence in his
sagacity and force as much as any
thing else which enabled his people to
make the stand they did, that cost
England thousands of lives and million;
of dollars.

MYSTERY OF HICKS DEATH.

Asheville, N. c., Feb. 2O.-In speaking
OF the killing of Hicks, near Tryon Thurs
day night, an Asheville gentleman who
went to Tryon to attend the cock fight
returning to the city yesterday, said there
was considerable mystery surrounding the
murder, and that it is not definitely
known who did the shooting According
~ to one story, it would seem that Hicks
was the victim of mistaken identity. The
way the story goes former revenue Off
Ger and a man who was at the cock fight
became involved in dispute Thursday
morning, but were taken in charge by
then friends and apparently the matter
was amicably settled. 1t is said, how
ever that later in the day the man de-
clared that before he left there he would
get even with the ex-officer; that at five
clock that afternoon Hicks came in from
Union, S. c., to attend the fight, and
those who saw the two men declare that
h. was the living image OF the officer,
and according to this story the suppose
ton is that Hicks was killed in the be-
liet that he was the former officer.
Another tragedy came near being en-
acted just before Hicks was killed. 1t is
said that two men were disputing when
one of them made lunge at the other
with an open knife in his hand. The man
attacked lodged and the assailant and as
sailed fell to the ground, the knife in the
hand of the attacking party closing and
badly cutting three of the mans fingers.
Friends interposed and as the man with
the knife was taken away the other one
had drawn his pistol and a second later
would undoubtedly have killed his assail-

But fortunately there is another largo

shake off their prejudice and try Peruna

other remedies at the beginning of their
troubles. They allow cold to develop
into catarrh of the head. They allow
catarrh of the head to gradually become
catarrh of the throat. They still keep
using the doctors medicine, or some
other Intellectual remedy. The catarrh
stealthily spreads down the bronchial
tubes and reaches the lungs. Everybody
then becomes alarmed. Faith in the
doctor begins to disappear. The patient
reaches a state of mind in which he is
willing to try almost anything. A bot

We talked with a number of our farm
ers last week, the main purpose in view
being to ascertain something about this
years crops. AS a result, we have come
to the conclusion that a majority of the
farmers in Nash and Edgecombe coun-
ties--and it must be the case generally
have their eyes open, for about 80 per
cent of those with whom we talked in
formed us that they intended to plant
both cotton and tobacco as money crops
and also give more attention to raising
home supplies--hog and hominy. We
were gratified to find so large a per
cent. with this determination and believe
this will be prosperous year with them.
Prosperity among the farmers means
prosperity all round.
