Waterville, Me, Sept. Ex-Governor
Glenn, of North Carolina, spoke at ST
Johnsburg yesterday, and at Water
Vile today He will start for his home
given an earnest and cordial reception
by the people of this city, and his ut
terances were needed as the words OF
a wise man from the South. he
stirred his audience to a high state OF
patriotic enthusiasm, and when he
would leave his facts and figures, pic
turing the new industrial activities OF
his State and the South and relate
anecdotes, exhibiting his great store
of humor and human nature, the
crowd would be almost transported.
Governor Glenn's tour of New Eng
land in behalf of a better understand
ing and more friendly commercial re-
lations between the South and New
England, is of almost historic import
ance. Time and again he has changed
the sentiment of the people at the
places he has visited. and everywhere
the people were eager to hear MIN.
Today he is the most popular South
erner known to New England, and he
has been literally bom5arded with in
vitationS to deliver addresses at cities
not included in his itinery. AS Gov
ernor of North Carolina and President
of the Southern Industrial Parliament,
he is regarded as the spokesman for
the South, and his message to this sec
ton has been universally applauded.

\ MISSIONARY IN CHINA.
Wants to Pay Conscience Money Fol
Cotton Stolen in 1881.
Wilmington Messenger.

Now and then a letter is received
by some person enclosing conscience
money. Such a letter was received yes
terday by Mr.. II. Mel. Green, county
treasurer, the difference in this, and
other letters or similar kind being
that Mr.. Green's letter wanted infor-
nation as to whom conscience money
due by the writer should be paid. The
letter was from b. Berntsen, a mis-
sionary at South Chich lie Mission, al
Wing Flu, North China.
The writer, who seems to be a
SWede, says he was in Wilmington
twenty-four years ago on the South
Norway vessel Electra" Captain D.
Iverson, and that the vessel was al
Wilmington for q cargo of cotton. The
cotton was to go to Liverpool. Bernt-
sen says that at the time he was
about Is years of age and that he and
another sailor one Saturday night stole
bag of cotton and sold it to a negro
by the name of Smith, who paid them
SO cents for it, This, he says, seemed
to be a custom among the sailors, and
they often availed themselves of this
method to raise money with which to
buy whiskey. Berntsen alleges that
he and the sailor got very drunk and
then went aboard with intention of
getting another bag of cotton. but were
he says he and the sailor were stand
ing over the hold when the sailor, who
had struck a match for some pur-
pose, allowed it to drop into the hold
and set the cargo on fire. No one, he
states saw them at the time, and it
was never known who set the vessel
on fire. At the time BerntSen says
he could speak no English and this
fact, combined with fear of punish
ment, prevented him from making the
facts known at the time.
In the letter to Mr. Green, BerntSen
requested the treasurer to learn If pos
sible to whom he should pay money
for the loss he had occasloned. lie
does not say whether he wants to pay
only for the bag OF cotton stolen or
also part of the loss occasloned by the
fire. He states that he wrote to the
treasurer at Wilmington. Delaware,
about year ago, but learht,t that no
cotton was shipped from Delaware, so
he decided that wilmington, N. c., was
the port where the incident occurred.
He said his writing ABOUT the matter
might appear foollsn' put ne wanted
to put himself right betofe his Maker
and atone if possible Tor the crime
committed nearly quarter of a cen
fury ago The sailor, VINO was with
him, he stated, he mas not seen in
more than twenty years.
Mr.. Green will do what he can to be
of benefit to the missionary, At the
time that Berntsen wrote TO Whining
ton, Delaware, press dispatches were
sent out to the various papers in re-
! gard to the incident

"Shakespeare Does Not

WITH POLICE JUSTICE
Fined for PummeIing Women of He'll

Richardson. after having been
found guilty on two charges of as

WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body I'm Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and mo-
lasseS every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
"blood purifier tonic and cure~all,
and mind you, this old-fashioned rem
edy was not without merit
The idea was good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatabls, and a
large quantity had to be taken to get
any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects of sulphur in palatable con-
centrated form, so that a single grain
is far more effective than a table
spoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research and eX-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ
tanned from Calcium Calcium sui
phide) and sold i'm drugs stores under
the name Of Stuarts Calcium Waters.
They are small chocolate coated pei
lets and contain the active medicinal
principle of sulphur in q highly con-
centrated effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor ard
liver, and excretory organs and puri-
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
er of sulphur We're often worse than
the disease, and cannot compare with
the modern concentrated preparations
Of sulphur, of which Stuart's Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
consultation and purify the blood in
way that often surprises patient
and physician alike.
DR.. r. M. wilkins while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the sulphur from Calcium was
superior to any other form. He says:
For liver kidney and blood troubles,
especially when resulting from consti-
patton or malaria, / have been sur
prised at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium Waters In patients
suffering from boils and pimples and
even deep-seated carbuncleS, L have
repeatedly seen them dry up and dis
appear in four or five days, leaving
the skin clear and smooth. Although
Stuart's Calcium Waters is pro-
prietary article. and sold by druggists
and for that reason tabooed by many
physicians, yet l know of nothing SC
safe and reliable for constipation, liver
and kidney troubles and especially in
all forms of skin disease as this rem
| edy."
At any rate people who are tired
of pills cathartics and so-called plooo
| purifiers, will find in Stuarts Cal
| cium Waters a far safer, more palat-
able and effective preparation.

Nall Had Enlarged Heart.

In substance the testimony of DIR.
Ferebee was that he examined NalPs
physical condition on June 22nd, and
had him constantly under his obser-
alton from that date until the 3rd of
August, when he left Raleigh on his
vacation, not returning until after the
death Of the patient: that in such ex-
animation he had discovered that Nall
was suffering from enlargement of the
heart which gave a murmur near the
apex in the stethoscope with the first
sound" the symptoms being short
ness of breath and puffy condition of
the upper part of the body. He de-
scribed the treatment given him as be-
ing the prohibition of any violent eX-
ercise, morphia. digitalis and nitro
olycerine and the prescription of a
tonic.
