MONEY MAKING
MACHINE HERR
A Remarkable National
Cash Register at Bob
bitt- Wynne's.

The most remarkable piece OF
mechanism in existence was Installed
yesterday at the Bobbitt-Wynne Drug
State. Merchants have five kinds OF
transactions, cash purchases, charge
purchases, payments received on ac-
count, paid out and changing money.
The new six-drawer National Cash
Register makes an absolutely correct
record of every one of these transac-
tons, by every clerk. keeps their cash
separate and shows the results of cacl?
clerks work, besides giving the total
of their combined sales and other re-
ceipts on each day and making it alb
solutely impossible for ain error to be
made without the responsibility being
placed Immediately and in time to be
remedied.
This cash register is the most inn
proved product of the National Cash
Register and il is acknowledged thai
no system ever yet devised can COM
pare with this in any particular.
Merchants aud the public generally
will be interested to sec this cash reg
lister manipulated. 1t is one Of the
most remarkable inventions of the age
and so perfect that the National Cash
Register Company has offered $4,000
to anyone who viii give them a Sug-
geStion for improvement over the ma
chimes they now have. Besides the
machine just placed in the Robbitt-
Wynne Drug Store, Mr.. j. s. Wypne
has given orders for two additional
cash registers exactly like this one to
be placed in the Joly-Wynne Jewelry

WHY SUCH TREATMENT?
An Old Negro Woman Put in Jail for
Refusing to be Vaccinatcd.

Mr.. l. III. Rowland n deputy sheriff
of Middle Creek township. brought an
old negro woman to Jail yesterday
sent up for 10 days by Mr. A. S. Nor
gan. a. magistrate. for refusing to be
vaccinated there. being some scare Of
small-pox. in that community
b The old woman's name IS Mariah
AIKEN. and is said to be 50 years of
age. The, reason, said the deputy that
the old lady refused to be veccinateu
was ON account Of the serious Illness
of a daughter who had just given
birth to a child, and the old lady Was
the only one TO nurse the patient, but
that she promised to be vacctnated as
soon as she could leave nor daughter.
The magistrate it is said would not
listen to any such excuse and sent her
on to Jail.
This IS q disgrace to that commune
ity. The idea Of o magistrate being 50
inhun1ane, and so unreasonable as 70
send an. old colored woman who
weary With years. and perhaps =
faithful old servant to a generation
that has gone. to Jail because she
dared to, .nursa her child who was
nigh unto death. -,
Though an old black mamnnie. aal
perhaps Of little service TO those about
her now, yet that magistrate ought
TO blush III shame for treating an old,
decrepit human being in such man
ner.
This old negro has the same love
in her heart for her children that any
mother has. and it was natural thai
she did not wish TO put her arrl ont
of service until her child was out OF
( danger.
The people in that community
ought to investigate the matter and
find out why such treatment by an
officer of the law.
