THE PUBLIC AROUSED
To the Need of Checking PreventabIe
Diseases.

Albany, N. Y, April 11.-Millions
upon millions of dollars annually lost
to the people of the state of New York
through preventable diseases is the
keynote of the annual report of State
Health Commissioner Lewis to the
governor, just made public.
eff the monetary value of a human
life is assumed to be $4,000" says DR..
Lewis, "the deaths from but five of
the preventable diseases during 1908
in this state represents loss of $94,-
100000. These figures seem appall-
ing, and yet millions upon millions
can properly be attributed to this sum
in loss of wages, expense of the care
of the sick and many other expenses
incidental to the management of these
epidemic and infectious diseases"
The commissioner shows that there
was vast opportunity and abundant
authority to meet conditions, but alb
surdly insufficient appropriations with
which to perform the necessary work,
for which he believes a million dollars
a year could be used with immense ad-
vantage to the people of the state.

An Amusing Incident.

While playing in a town IN cen
trail Tennessee recently, the "Million-
ARE Tramp" company had among its
auditors an aged darkey named Nose.
Nose was deeply interested In the
play but his whole soul was CEN
tered in the experience of the darkey
character, "Abe.' In the third act
Abe starts out to celebrate Christmas
eve, and incidentally gets on board
more gin than he can carry. While In
this condition he is approached from
behind by ghost in the person of a
tramp Abe shutters, stammmers and
eventually becomes unable to speak
through fright; his knees and hands
tremble, and he displayed all the
signs of his great fear. Old Nose
watched all this with wide open eyes
and astonishment When finally the
scene neared its climax, old Nose
could stand it no longer and beloved
out in deep voice, "What you all
skeered of, niggah, dat amt no ghost,
dat's dat d-n tramp" Suffice it to
say that the niger in front got a
bigger laugh than the one on the
stage. At the Phillips Friday night.

WOMEN'S FATAL DUEL
Hair Pulling Match Ends When One
Draws a Revolver.

Wheeling, w. Va, April 11.-Mrs.
Ella Graham and Victoria Robinson
disagreed and quarreled over the at
tentions Mr.. Robinson was alleged to
have lavished upon Mrs. Graham, and
in consequence Mrs. Robinson is dead
and Mrs. Graham is in jail charged
with murder. The two women met
near their home in Pocahontas and
started in to fight viciously, tearing at
one another's hair. Mrs. Robinson
was proving too much for her antago-
mist, when Mrs Graham pulled re
volver and fired five bullets into Mrs.
Robinson's body, killing her instantly.
The shots were fired at such close
range that the clothing of the dead
woman took fire and her dress was
partly consumed before the flames
were extinguished

sudden movement sends thrill of pain
through her and she realizes that though
love may tighten labor it cannot Tighten
pain.
Thousands of women who have suf-
fered from backache, headache, and
other consequences of wornanly disease,
have been made we'll women by the
use of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton. 1t establishes regularity, dries
unhealthy drains, heals inflammation
and liberation and cures female
weakness.
"I cannot say enough in praise of DR.. Pierce's
Favor1te Prescription as 1t has done me so much
good writes Mrs. Henry Harreil, of Tarboro
N C, Box 100. II was swollen so could hardly

1.-The Heart of Maryland.

In the announcement of the num-
erous attractions secured by Manager
Murray of the Gennett theater for
the present season none brings a more
welcome feeling of qualification than
that of the temperance on April
goth of David Belasco's brilliant and
Accordingly interesting play of love
and war, "The Heart of Maryland, -
with its intensely exciting scene in
the belfry of the old colonial church
tower where the heroine, Maryland
Calvery, rushes up the frail stairway
through the gloom to the narrow
platform under the rafters, and,
springing from it into the open space
wildly clutches the already swaying
cIapper Of the bell, and by this death
defying act prevents the ringing of
the bell, and by this death-defying
act, prevents the ringing out Of the
alarm which would cause the recap
ture and military execution of her
lover as a spy. The scenic settings in
which the play is framed are mar
wells of romantic realism and the por-
traiture of the various characters will
be made effective by talented com
pany of notable players.

VIII Probably Get to the Jury by We'd
nesday Noon.
indianapolis, April 1.-THE cross
examination of Waiter Brown, charged
with completely in the wrecking of the
Indiana National Bank of Elkhart, has
been completed, and 1T is said that the
evidence for the defense will probably
be in by this evening. This will allow
the arguments to be made tomorrow
and the case to pass to the jury by
Wednesday noon.
Cool, defiant and outspoken, Brown
faced a rigorous cross-examination by
the government with no show of nerV-
BUSINESS or aversion. Subjected to a
four hours siege of direct questioning,
he stepped from the witness stand ap-
parently nerved and satisfied, having
held firmly to his story told in direct
examination, in which he explained
his connection with the insolvent In
diana National Bank of Elkhart
Although the story in his own de-
Tense was shaken in a number of
points by the examination,
Brown adhered stubbornly to it's de-
tails and answered the majority of
questions quietly and with little hest
fancy. However, there were some
questions which he could not answer,
saying that he would have to make an
examination of the books of his COM
pany to reply directly.

River Jam at Montreal Drives Thou
sands From Home.
Montreal, April 11.-Three thousand
people in the village of Verdun, adjoin-
ing the western limits of the city of
Montreal are living in the upper stor-
les of their houses, while several thou
sand more, who reside in that sec
ton of the city known as Point st.
Charles are in danger. A large guam
THY of ice came down from Lake ST.
Louis and damned up against the Vic
toria bridge. In few minutes the
water began to rise and in short time
had reached the top of the dyke built
after the last great flood, and which
had been up to the present time a SUI
ficient protection.
In a short time it became possible
to navigate all that portion of Verdun
in the neighborhood of the Queens
park with boats. All the teams that
could be pressed into service are en-
gagged In Strengthening and raising
the dyke. While the water in front
of the city is dangerously high, no
damage has been done and it is ex-
pected that the costly flood protection
works will do their work.
