Dr.. :. 3. Matthews Commits
Suicide.

Baltimore, Nd, Nov. Sin cheap
lodging house On east Baltimore street,
this afternoon, DR.. J.. Baxter Mat
theWs of Greensboro, N. c., blew out
his brains with shot from a 32-cal-
iber revolver.
Dr.. Matthews was convicted March
Q, 1896, at Greensboro, n. c., Of the
poisoning of his wife Dec, +, 1905. He
had peen out of custody under bail
pending the decision Of his appeal for
q new trial, which was denied him,
and relatives and bondsmen have been
searching for him for some weeks that
he might be taken before the court to
be resentenced. In the absence Of any
definite reason for his taking his life
it is supposed that he did SO rather
than serve the sentence, said to be 20
wears in the penitentiary, to be in
posed upon him.
Immediately after his conviction,
which was of murder in the second
degree, DIR. Matthews became pa
lent at Mount Hope Retreat, near this
city, and was there under treatment
for the morphine and liquor habits for
some months, finally being discharged
as cured.

The people of Charleston and other
sections of this State are quite jubi-
liant over the arrival of the North
German Lloyd steamer Whittekind,
with the first load of immigrants for
this State, which arrived at Charles
ton last Sunday withs475 passengers
on board from Bremen, Germany.
This second steamer from the same
point viii arrive, it is said, about the
latter part Of January, 1907. This is
the work Of State immigration Com
missioner Watson and may prove BEN
efcial to the State, but we are frank
tto say we are not SO much enthused
over this tide Of immigration into the
State. While we may get some good
material in the end we fear results
viii not prove beneficial.

Death of & Child.

On Monday Of last week membrane
Gus Group laid cold hands Of death
upon the little form of Henry A.
Meetze, Jr., the four-year-old son OF
Mr. and Mrs. Henry A. Meetze, OF
Leesyille, s. G, pluchng from this
happy family a bower OF promise, the
pride of home and the joys of its
parents, leaving pearcing pangs in the
hearts Of its loved ones; but the
angles bore its soul to the land above
where it viii remain in all its glory to
await the coming of those left behind.
Why this bright little boy just at this
time should be snatched from the
arms Of It's parents seems mysterious
to us, but when we remember the
Lord said suffer little children to come
INTO me and forbid them not. We
must not murmu but rest the judg-
ment Of Him who doeth all things for
the best. It's little form was buried
at LeesVille. Mr.. and Mrs. Meetze
have the heartfelt sympathy Of our
people in their said hour Of bereave-
ment.

Impoverished Soil

Impoverished soil, like impov-

fertilizer to use for different

If your blood is impoverished
your doctor will tell you what
YOU need to fertilize it and give
it the rich, red corpuscles that
