Always Sign Your Name.

How often must it berepeated that
no attention will be paid to unsigned
articles sent for publication? The
reason is obvious or should be to
every intelligent person. The editor
cannot afford to print things not
knowing whether they are true or
not without knowing the name OF
the writer. Always sign your name,
not for publication necessarily, but
that the editor may know who the
writer is. OF course if people wish to
contribute to the waste basket and
thereby add to the accumulation OF
trash about the printing office they
can continue to write articles and
omit to sign their names.

an invocation by Rev. Julian E.

federate song, Veterans present,
drawn up in front of the stand were
decorated with the Confederate
colors, three young ladies, Misses

To Destroy Effects of Wild Onions in
Cows Milk.

On the first page of the GOLD LEAF
last week we printed an article from
the Statesville Landmark on 'how
to circumvent the wild onion 1t
was stated therein that the effects OF
the wild onion on milk could be de-
stroyed by putting spoonful OF
mOlasses in the cows feed. Another
writer in the same paper substan-
tiates the statement, and now comes
a man in Union county who writes
the same thing to the Monroe En-
ouirer. The gentleman in question
is Mr.. Luther S. Griffin who says that
his COWS Craze on onions as thick as
wheat and there is not a trace OF
onion on milk or butter, because he
fIayors the cows feed with two or
three spoonfuls of molasses a day.
As the Landmark says: 1.-The remedy
is simple enough and inexpensive.
The wild onion is an ever present
pest and nuisance. If way can be
found to destroy it-by deep pillow

Henderson. n. {

Dear Sir:-A gallon saved is 81 or IS
earned Devoe saves 2 or 3 gallons in 10.
How much is it worth a gallon?
A gallon saved saves the painting too;
and both together cost 81 or $5-$4
where labor is cheap; s. where labor is
dear.
Our agents at Bridgeport, Conn, Hub
bell & Wade Co., tell us: ''There are a
great many workingmen's houses here.
They used to paint lead-and-o oil and take
ten gallons. We have been selling them
ten gallons Devoe lead-and-zinc, and have
had, in every instance, two gallons re-
turned" The proportion is often higher
than that; we have known it five in ten;
but that is exceptional.
This is the explanation: Devoe is

lead-and- oil is mixed by hand, and ism
ground at all.

Chinaman Killed.

Jim Wo Kee, Chinese laundryman,
is dead from nine terrible wounds on his
head and face, received during a fight
early yesterday in his laundry in New
York with white woman companion.
The woman who says she is Mollie Dono-
van. % years old, philadelphia, is in a
dangerous conditionin hospital from sew
erai deep cuts in her head and shoulders
and is a prisoner on the charge of caus-
inc the Chinaman's death. Kee, In
q statement made to the police
before he died, said that the woman as
saulted him with cleaver while he was
asleep, and claims that he inflicted her
wounds in defending himself. When a
policeman who had been attracted to
the laundry by the calls of the woman
for help reached there he found Kee
living on a bed bleeding from many
wounds. The place resembled a sham
bles, the bed, wall, floor and ceiling
and the man and woman who had fought
were bathed in blood. Both Kee and
MolIie Donovan were taken to a hos
pital, and there the Chinaman died soon
after telling his story Of the affair. Kee
said the woman came to his place Thurs
day evening, and that there was no
trouble until early yesterday. He had
been asleep several hours when he was
awakened by a blow on the head. He
awoke to see the woman standing over
him with an appraised cleaver in her hand
about to strike a second blow. Then
began aterribly fig hitfOr possession Of the
weapon in which both the contestants were
teraible wounded. The Donovan woman
is small, fairhaired and rather good look
ing.
