AN UNEXPECTED RETURN.
The preliminary inquest held by the
coroner's court on the body Of Richard
COTE in no way helped to dispcl the
mystery surrounding his death. For
as yet the ~post-mortem examination
had not been concluded. and a principal
witness, in the person of Dunstan Bur-
bage. was not in attendance.
His continued absence dehpened the
suspicion that had already crept round
and darkened his reputation in the
public eyes, since it became known mat
he had been seen to leave the de-
ceased's bedroom q considerable time
after the latter had retired. But to
Lady Bysshe, to Edith, and the cunt,
he was above and beyond all doubt,
and no hint Of his supposed guilt was
tolerated by them. no fear OF it OPP
pressed their minds.
For all that. Lady Bysshe and her
niece We're In q state Of nervous anx-
iety regarding him. which increased
every day that passed and failed to
bring tidings of him.
All, my Gear, what a comfort you
are to me-" Lady Bysshe replied.
Then after a moments pause she
continued: II suppose that when l
to give evidence, l shall have TO
tell them why he left US so abruptly"

Whilst the search was being made

lean farmer. The farm wagon
is as Anticipated as the pillow.
Many OF the small farm imple-
ments are of the clumsy patterns in
use a century ago. The carpenter uses
neither Ratchet nor handsaw, and his
other tools are not nearly so complete
as those of an American carpenter.
Furniture is largely handmade and is
correspondence expensive. Although
the highways here are nearly perfect,
the light American buggy and phaeton
are unknown. Though much is made of
all %navisable rivers for purposes of
trade. small! pleasure launches are rare
ly seen. The barber chairs used even in
handsome city barber shops would not
be tolerated in the smallest towns in
the United States. Small office safes
of the inexpensive and convenient types
found so generally in the United States
are not seer in this locality"

With the exception of the butler. he
was the only servan to Whom Toundes
had spoken, and he instantly set about
questioning him.

in n confidential tone, as he looked

The dwarf-like creature contented
himself with giving the inspector an

there was fright in her eyes. The in

after a seconds pause.
She evidently did not recognize the
gravity which this act might assume
in tho eye of a jury, and he did not

Pe-ru.na contains no Narcotics

One reason why Pcrnna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
it contains no narcotic Of any kind. Pc.
runa is perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acQuir-
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-
duce temporary results, 1t is perma-
nent in its effect.
1t has no bad effect upon the system.
and gradually eliminates catarrh by
removing the cause of catarrh. There.
are a multitude Of homes where Pernns
las been used OFF and on for twenty
years. Such a thing could not be ,possi-
ble if Pcruna contained any drugs Of \,
narcotic nature.
At this season of the year we are
peculiarly liable to intlnmmations of the
stomach and bowels. 1t is the part OF
wisdom to learn how to cut them short
and in the easiest and quickest amer
Peruna does this by its peculiar power
over all forms of catarrhal troubles.

Goldsbero. Oct. 1.-THE removal OF

desire Of the Rowland Improvement
Company to change the operating de-
to more suitable locations. 1t has been
suggested that the shops be CHI anged

be made. The question Is beng asked
here, why not 10Y the shops to Colds
is the most natural solution OF The
problem n IL the business men OF this
city will put forth the right kind OF
effort it is believed the shops can DE
secured.
What The shops are worth 10 a town
Is shown by the statement IN the last
report OF the road that nearly $50, COO
was expended last year to operate them
in New Bern. This sum OF money paid
to the employees in Goldsboro would
benefit every business interest CT the
city and would add much to the present
'o'oiiS VI Us puS4nesS. Inere Is no
authority for the statement thai the
shops can be secured for this city, but
the occasion is worth considerable eff.
fort on h part Of the Goldsboro cham
Der Of commerce.. and IL they are to be
moved at all as a been stated from
a reliable source. GoldsborO might ros-
sably be benefited by the change n
the proper efforts were put forth at an
opportune time.
The northbound passenger train on
the Atlantic Coast Line due here last
night at 9:31 o'clock did not get here
until nearly 4 O'Clock this morning. The
delay was caused by a freight train
at Dudley. which o~bstructed the track
FOR that length OF time. The damage
was not so great but was OF such a
ma ture that it could not be remedied
until the arrival Of al wreckfng train.
The freight attempted to get In on the
siding and after six or eight cars had
passed the switch the rear truck OF he
