4 Distressing Incident.

There was q pail Of distressing
anxiety thrown over this comnlus
nifty when it was announced on
Monday morning last that a little
seven year old negro living on
Mr.. Alb Moole's place, had just
died of hydrophobpia. The cause
of so much splicitude and anxiety
arising from the manner of the
little negroes death is, that he
and the two little sons Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Alb Moore were bitten by q
dog at or near the same time a.
bout a month ago. Nothing se-
rinus was thought of the occur
renee at the time the children
were bitten, although the dog,
which was only puppy, died
about day afterwards. This
caused little or no apprehension,
it being supposed by Mr.. Moore
and others that the dog, which was
tied to a stake, had wound its rope
around and around the stake until
it had strangled to death. But the
death Of the little negro at the
time and under the surrounding
circumstances, together with the
alarming statement of DIR. Cost
Hey, the attending physician, that
hydrophobia was undoubtedly the
cause of death, has brought to
Mr.. Moore and his family the
most painful anxiety and distress
for the safety of their two bright.
little sons.
As yet no symptoms Of any
sickness have developed with
them and Mr.. Alb Moore with his
two little boys, accompanied by
DR.. Howell Moore, left on Tues
day for New Orleans where they
will be placed in the Pasteur In
stitute in that city for treatment.
The heartfelt sympathy of the en-
tire community goes out to the
anxious parents with united and
earnest hopes that the two bright
little boys may escape the dread
malady. Franklin Advocate.

The thrift, energy and perse-
yerance displayed by some men
and women, who seem to have
been "born to blush unseen,'' but
who are radiant in the little cor
ner they occupy, deserve notice
when now and then the public
spies them out and the influence
of their humble efforts is felt.
The other evening we CHANGED to
call, on a mission of interest, at the
home of Mrs. Anglin who lives
on the Caseyyille road, near Mr..
w. +. Davis, and were amazed at
the evidences of industry display
ed or every hand. This heart
broken woman, who has known
great trial and suffering, yet finds
pleasure and pride in what her
hands find to do and even gener-
ously divides the results with her
neighbors and friends chickens,
pigs, ducks, fruit trees and val
liable garden, containing almost
perfect vegetables, are the attrac-
lions outside, while inside there
are great stacks of carefully
pieced quilts, both cotton and
worsted, and other evidences Of
patient skill. The efforts of such
woman in spite of calamity and
trial, should incite others to take
up smilingly the burdens Of life,
and to help others that may need
more help than one is aware, spir-
itually, if not materially.

MAY T1E-uP VAST CONTRACTS.
Elevator Men Face a Worldwide
Strfke-Expected This Week.

A dispatch from New York says: The
first international strike in the history OF
the world-that of the international Union
of Elevator CONSTITUENCIES expected this
week
Preparations have quietly been progress
ing during the last two weeks. and all ar
rangements will probably have been made
by Saturday. All the resources OF the
American Federation of Labor. the Inter
national Union of Elevator Constructors
the British trades congress. the Deutscher-
Arbeits Bund and other foreign labor or
CARNATIONS will be enlisted against the So
called American elevator trust.
The issues in the struggle, which Will IN
volve at least 70 per cent of the elevator m
dustry in the world, are wages and the
sympathetic strike principle. The strike Is
an outcome of the Philadelphia Master
Builders war on sympathetic strikes. The
latter adopted resolutions that no subcon-
tracts shall be let to subcontractorS VINO
sign agreements with unions emitting the
workmen to strike in sympathy with other
craftsmen. The elevator companies which
hitherto have worked in perfect harmony
with the Elevator Constructors Union, con-
nected themselves with the Philadelphia
Master Builders, and refused to renew
their agreements with the union on May 1
unless the latter agreed to abolish the SYM
pathetic strike clause. This the union re-
fused fatty to do. and at the. same time
demanded an increase in wages from S.tS
to $4.25 day.
The Otis Elevator Company, heading
what is known as the American elevator
trust controls at least 70 per cent of the
elevator industry of the world, and has
contracts in almost every civilized country.
The National Union of Elevator Construct
ors recognized that company in such
position Is little affected by local strike.
How much the company might be affected
by national strike was also considered by
the union, which held that to be really eff
fective the strike should be international.
and the company's work stopped in all
parts Of the world at one time.
The demands of the situation developed
rapidly, and as the national officers real
lied the gigantic task before them their
plans matured slowly. Not until last Mon
day. at a meeting in Washington. was a
definite plan of action suggested. when the
services of the American Federation were
also secured. The plan is for the National
Union to handle the general strike in this
country, and to call all men in foreign
countries out by wire. The American Fed
GRAFTON Is then. to direct the foreign cam
paigns through foreign national bodies.
