Poisoned by a Skunk Bite.

Amund Moe of Pleasant Springs died
at o'clock Monday morning of hydro
phobia, resulting from skunk bite.
Moe was about IS years old and left the
wife and one child. Moe one night last
October heard some racket in his hen
house and went to investigate. He found
the chickens badly frightened and flying
about. Not seeing anything of the sup

a polecat attacked him, biting him on
the leg. He killed the animal and for a
week seemed to suffer no i'll effects from
the bite. He then called upon DR..
Trulson for treatment and has been con-

Protect the Back.

People are more likely to catch cold
in the back than they are generally
aware Of, and if neglected it may prove
a serious matter. The back, especially
between the shoulders, should always
be kept well covered. and never lean
with your back against anything that
is cold. Never sit with the back in a
direct draft, and when warming it by
the fire do not continue to keep the
back exposed to the heat after it has
become comfortably warm. To do so
is debilitating.-J of Health.

The Horseshoe as Mascot.

The superstition that associates the
horseshoe with good luck is very old.
It is said TO prevail not only among
English speaking people, but in all
races of Europe and Asia. Antigua
ries are undecided whether it's origin
has to do with the material from which
the horseshoe is made Oh with it's
shape. Some writer's on this subject
have surmised that the lucky qualities
attributed to the horseshoe were de-
rived from it's fancied resemblance to
the halo pictured about the heads of
saints but this connection is highly
improbable, as it is known that the SUI
perstition certainly antedates Christi
anity.

We see from a Richmond dispatch
that one Of the insurance companies
with which the late J. S. McCue carried
a policy for ten Thousand dollars, the
The Travellers company of Hartford,
has refused to "a the policy. The COM
amy will contest the claim on the
ground that the contract in the policy
did not contemplate amy such contin-
gency as that which ended the life Of
the insured. All the other companies
with which the doctor was insured have
decided to make no contest over the
payment. To a laynan there does not
seem to be any law, certainly not any
justice to the beneficiaries of the policy,
in the contention Of this insurance COM
pany. This is very different from a case
Of suicide, for it is perfectly plain to
all who kept up with his case as it
developed that MI. McCue was not anx-
ious to depart this life and employed
every means possible to keep from pay
ing the penalty of the law which made
his policy of insurance available of COL
lection by those for whose benefit it
was taken out by the insured.

The press has had a good deal to say
about the desertion from the navy Of
Midshipman Arrowood, of this state,
and as this case will probably be before
the public for some time we give space
in this mornings paper to a statement
made to The Raleigh Post by the faith
er Of the young a in which he gives
his and his sons side. We have heard
the question asked several times, why
the young man did not resign if ne
found it 50 unpleasant to be associated
with the officers of the navy with wnom
his duties forced him to associate. It
seems that he di5 tender his resigna>
to accept it. We cannot see, though,
thai this fact released him from his
oath and his obligation to the govern
ment. Commodore Phillips, whose
Christian spirit gave him the fortitude,
in the flush of victory at the battle Of
Santiago to say to the men of the
Texas: stop cheering. boys; men are
dying over there" when the smoke Of
battle cleared and the American seamen
saw what havoc they had wrought upon
the enemy's warships, did not feel that
the morals of his associates in the
American navy were SO bad that ne
could not conscientiously mingle with
them. If MI. Arrowood's conscience
was 80 tender as his conduct would in
dictate we are of opinion that it is a
good thing for the navy that he should
leave it; but we regret hat North
Carolina should be the first state to
have recorded against it the desertion
Of a naval officer. While M~idshipman
Arrowood was coddling his conscience
he should have had some regard for
the fair name of his state n for the
honor and self respect of her citizens.
