Blowing Rosk and Her Beauties.
News and Observer.
Mr.. 7. K. Bruner, Secreta-
~ to the State Board OF Az.
riculture, has recently return
led from a visit to Blowing
Rock. Yesterday he was over
flowing with memories Of the
pleasures and delight he ex-
perienced there. He talked OF
Blowing Rock as a happy
place, where new joys are
known and where the grand
eur OF nature makes a man
who Is used only to prose,
speak poetry and utter senti
ment from a depth OF feeling
that he never knew before.
1t was Blowing Rock with
Mr.. Bruner yesterday. He
bad Blowing Rock in lis
heart, and IA he spoke there
was Blowing Rock In bis eyes
as we'll as In his voice. And,
without an added tint, here
is what Mr.. Brnner said OF
Blowing Rock:
This appellation Is a mis-
nomer. True, it's significance
comes about BY the freaks OF
the winds, which still blow
where they Ilsteth. When they
blow from the valley north-
ward and strike the face OF
tho rocky cliffs overbanging

name-Blowing Rock.

One day a German scient'
lat. full OF learning and trnv'

ventured once more the quet

Without lifting hiseyes and

said:

AmERlCANlATTACHE SET UPON.
Mr.. Bliss Assaulted by Rowdles at ST.
Petersburg

st. Petersburg, Nov. N.-5. p. m. -
Robert Woods Bliss, second secretary
of the American embassy, who has just
returned here after three months vaca-
ton in Paris, was the victim of an out
rage by rowdies in one of the most
fashionable streets of the capital late
last night, and only escaped being beat
en- to death by the timely arrival Of the
police.
Charge d'Affairs Eddy this afternoon
sent a note to Count Lamsdorf, the
foreign minister, calling his attention
to the assault on Mr.. Bliss, but making
no demands. The matter has been re-
ported to Washington.
Mr.. Bliss was returning to the en-
bassy on foot from the Yacht Club,
where he had been dining. On] the
Horse Guard boulevard, opposite the
barracks of the Chevalier Guard, the
secretary was suddenly set upon by two
men who sprang out of the darkness OF
the trees. Mr.. Bliss knocked down one
of his assailants, but was seized by
sympathizers of the rowdies, who had
been attracted to the spot by the dis
turbance, and he was getting the worst
of it when three policemen and house
porter came to Mr.. Bliss rescue and
seized his assailants. The rapidly grow
ing crowd, however, which promptly
sided against the police, rushed at the
officers and rescued the prisoners.
The police managed to stand off the
crowd and cover the retreat of Mr.
Bliss, who was badly cut about the face,
but not seriously injured.
Today police captain visited the en-
bassy and apolcgized for the attack on
Secretary Bliss, but he warned the
members of the embassy that the streets
were very unsafe, especially the boule-
ward, which is the rendezvous ofrowdies
and soldiers and sailors in civilian Co.'S
tunes. The captain advised the mem.
bers of the embassy to go armed in fu-
ture, and not to venture in the streets
at night except in carriages.

NOT GOOD FOR sAMoANs.
Clothing Of Civilization Responsible
for Much Pneumonia and
Pleurisy.

THE natives of Samoa" says Sur.
geon Spear, Of the navy, in a recent re-
port, ARE beginning to wear white
mems clothes, much to the detriment
of their health. The climate is essen
italy a wet one. In former times a
native would rub little cocoanut OIL
on his skin and 90 out into the rain
and when he reached shelter there was
nothing to dry but his 'laya-lava' OF
breech-cloth. The same native now
goes out into the rain, his modern
clothes soon become wet, and, before
he realizes it, he is chilled through,
for the rain in Samoa is always from
six to ten degrees colder than the at
Imosphere. pulmonary affections, such
as pneumonia, bronchitis and tubercu-
losis, naturally follow. The present
law prohibits the sale of alcoholic beY-
erages to the natives AS a matter OF
fact, the natives care very litt,e for
alcohol; they prefer their native drink,
'kava' The restriction is wise one
and should be continued.
The Samoans are very superstitious
and when taken sick they imagine dew
lis are inside them. Almost every old
woman and man has sure cure for
driving out these devils. This is &C
complished by 'lomi lomi' (massaging)
and by internal administration and ex-
ternal application of various decoc-
lions made from leaves. if cure re-
suits, the devils have been driven out;
If, on the other hand, death follows.
the devils are victorious.
1.-THE traders sell the natives patent
pain killer which can be used inter-
nally as medicine and externally as a
liniment. This medicine is very highly
thought of, and the natives will tell
you they have great confidence in it,;
sometimes they name their children
after it. A sick Samoan thinks he
must walk when sick, his theory being
that he must move about to regain
strength. If he cannot walk he will
bury himself under clothes, and 1t is
wonderful at times how they obtain
enough air to breathe.
THE usual treatment instituted IN
a case Of pneumonia by the natives is
about as follows: The man sits UP al
most continually; he is stuffed with all
sorts of food and decoctions to drive
out the devils, the number of devils
being estimated by the amount of pain.
If pleurisy exists, there are at least

Circuit Court Proceedings.

Circuit court for Tazewell county
convened on Monday, the 9th instant,
with Judge Henson presiding.
On Tuesday the trial of the case of
VIM. H. Robinson vs.. Norfolk and
Western Railway Company, was begun
and up to this writing the case has not
been concluded. 1t is a damage suit
for IS, 900. Robinson was walking on
the railroad bridge just west of Pound
ing Mill, last January, when he was
struck by train. He had but one leg
at the time, and by the accident he lost
the other leg. Hence the suit. The
defence by the company is contributory
negligence.
The May will case was fixed to be
called Wednesday, and wesuppose it will
be-called as soon as the Robinson case is
concluded.
A good many orders have been made
in chancery cases.

Honest Ballot in Hawaii.

Various people are drawing various
lessons and conclusions from the coun-
ty elections. There is one, however,
that can't hurt anyone's feelings and
should not be forgotten. Though the
contest on this island was sharp 10
bitterness, not one word has been offer
ed by even the defeated candidates or
party which impugns the integrity OF
the ballot and the count, so far as
those in official charge Of the election
are concerned. 1t was an honest cleo
ton. The voters were given an honest
ballot and that ballot was counted as
it was voted. All Of which goes to
show that 1t is not necessary to use
tricky or corrupt methods to win an
election for competent government In
Hawaii. Also that the territorial ad.
ministration did its full duty in the
preparation and count Of the ballot,
