FOR GOVERNOR and CONGRESSMAN.
MIR. KitChin for Governor and Solicitor
Brooks for C0lQreSS.

Two active men in politics have
let it be known that they are can
didates for two important posi-
tions that the people generally
will be much interested in. These
two men are Congressman W.
w. Kitchin and Solicitor A. L.
Brooks, the former being a can
didate for governor, while the
latter hopes to succeed Mr.. Kit
chin in Congress.
Regarding Mr.. Kitchin's as
pirations, it was learned last
week definitely that he will be a
candidate for the nomination at
the hands of the Democratic for
the position of governor at the
next time for such action. Mr..
Kitchin has represented this dis
trict in Congress for, when the
present term is completed,
twelve years, and his record is
one that any man should be
proud of. The best way to eX-
press it would be to quote what
friend of the editor said when
told that Mr.. Kitchin would be a
candidate for governor: well,
if my vote could do it, he can be
president of the United States,
or anything else he wants" 1t
is to be hoped by the people of
the Fifth Congressional district
that Mr.. Kitchin will receive the
nomination, for he has one of the
best records of any politician
that has been serving the people
for any length of time.
Mr.. Brooks also is very pop
ular with the people of this dis
trict and if the political pot
does not boil over and have to be
refilled there is little doubt but
he will have easy sailing when
it comes to get the nomination.
So far no other candidate has
announced his intention of max
ing the race, and it is generally
conceded that he is the logical
candidate of the party.

Seriously Hurt by a Fall.

While at work doing some
painting on the house of 7. J.
Rigsbee, James Ray fell and was
badly hurt one day last week.
He was painting the guttering
around the caves of the house, be.
ing on a swinging ladder fasten-
ed from the top of the house
and il came loose in some way
and he fell first to the shed, a
distance of about fifteen feet,
and then rolled off the shed and
fell to the ground.
IL was a mere matter of luck
that he was not killed outright.
As IL was his shoulder was dislo-
Gated and he was considerably
bruised up. When he landed on
the ground he fell within "a few
feet of a well. He suffered a
great deal of pain, but ii Is not
thought that his hurt will result
fatally.

Efforts Of Citizens TO Have Active Or'
ganizatlOn Meeting Success.

Hh0nNhH
Mr.. G. C. Huntington, inter-
state secretary of the Young
Mems Christian association work
in North Carolina, VINO has his
headquarters in Charlotte, is in
Durham. His coming here is in
connection with a matter that
will mean a great deal for this
city. The matter referred to is
the organization of a Young
Mems Christian association here
and the raising of sufficient funds
to build and equip an up-to-date
home for this organization.
Several months ago the matter
of starting a move for a Y. M.
C. A. organization here and
raising of funds for the erection
of a building and its equipment
began to take shape. 1t was
then reported that several gen.
tlemen had agreed to give liber-
ally if the move was made a sue
CESS. Since then there has not
been much said, but a great deal
has been done.
There is now a move that looks
as if there will be erected q
building to cost not less thar
$4,000 and the organization
here of-an active Young Mems
Christian association. Mr.. Hunt
ington dropped off here to take a
hand in pushing this matter
along.
Those who are more active in
getting this matter to a success
full termination have organized
and an executive committee has
charge of the work. This com.
mittee is composed of the follow
ing well known Christian gentle.
men: Mr.. ]. II. Southgate
chairman; Rev. E. r. Leyburn
secretary; Messrs. R. L. Flower:
w. J. Brogden, w. H. Crutch
field, and Mayor P. c. Graham
This committee was selected fol
the purpose of having a head t
the organization so that the
work of soliciting funds and get
ting the move on foot could be
pushed in a systematic way.
Mr.. Huntington was in Dur,
ham sometime ago at which
time he delivered an address ir
the Academy of Music. The seeC
that were sown before his coming
were developed so that is is now
almost a certainty that the mat
ter will be a success. In a short
while Mr.. huntington will re-
turn to durham, at which time
he will again address our peo
pie on this question, showing
the great work that is being
done in other communities anC
the great &c, ID that can be ac.
complished here.
1t is thought that it will be ne
hard matter to get all the money
that the leaders in the move say
will be necessary for a first elias:
Y. M. c. A. building and equip
ments.

ALIENS GET Sll.OOO DAMAGE.
Mrs. Allen Gets $4,000 and Her HuS.
band Gets $1,000 from the TraC.
tiOn Company.

uUh UUbpuhJs
The case of Mrs. M. H. Allen
against the Durham Traction
chmpany for damages on ac-
count of the car starting before
she was off as a result of which
she sustained injuries, and the
suit of her husbnd on account of
the same accident for the ex-
penses of taking care of his wife
while she was confined to her bed
came to an end last Friday night
a little after ten o'clock. The
jury was given the case at 6:45
o'clock and returned as mem
toned above. The Traction COM
pany gave notice of appeal.
The history of this case is one
that began two yaars ago next
April when Mrs. M. H. Allen,
wife of Mr.. J. H. Allen was
thrown as she was leaving a
street car at Five Points. In the
fall her hip was broken or badly
dislocated, and her back hurt.
Since then she has been an in
valid and this week she attended
court by using crutches. On the
night she was hurt she had been
tU see some relative and told the
the conductor she wanted to get
off at Five Points. AS the car
stopped in front of Morris street
she stepped to the running board
and just as one foot touched the
ground the car started and she
was thrown heavily to the
ground. In her testimony and
in the testimony of a number
who live on Morris street, it was
shown that this was the point
at which they had been in the
habit of leaving cars ard that
they had time and again been
assisted in alighting by the con-
ductors.
The Traction company con-
tended that it was not a stop at
the point where Mrs. Allen was
hurt; that the car did not stop
at all, but slowed down in order
to open the switch and that it
was her own negligence that
brought about the hurt. There
were several witnesses who
swore that they saw the car
stop.
Two actions were begun. one
by Mrs. Allen for $4,000 and
the other by her husband, who
sued for $500. This second
suit was for money spent and he
showed that he had spent be-
tween $500 and $1,000 on his
wife. He also sued for the suf-
fering under which he had gone
and the great inconvenience.
When this term of court came
on and the case was called it
was agreed to consolidate the
case and try both at once. This
was done and the consolidated

Hotel Suddenly.

P. Fife, capitalist, died suddenly
at II o'clock today at the st.
James Hotel.
Mr.. Fife was in the hotel lobby
chatting with friends when he
became suddenly very i'll, and
soon lost consciousness. DR..
William Beherns was hastily sum-
moned from the Southern Hotel,
across the street, but could do
nothing for Mr.. Fife, who died
S lortly after the Doctors arrival.
DR.. Beherns says the death
was probably due to a heart at
tack, but is not positive.
Coroner Baron has been notified
of the death-and will hold an in
quest Monday morning.
Mr.. Flies son, who is now in
Denver, Colorado, has been noti-
fed of his fathers death.
The body has been sent to the
morgue and will remain there
until the son has been heard
from.
William P. Fife was born
about fifty years ago in Newbern.
His father was w. w. Fife, a
trader. The elder Fife refugeed
to Thomasville toward the close
Of the civil war and resided in
the latter town until his death.

years ago, Miss Whitford, a
daughter of Col. John d. Whit
ford. of Newbern. and is sur
vived by two children, Miss El-
mer Fife and w. P. Fife, Jr.
For years Mr.. Fife was a sue
cessful tobacco salesman, travel
ing for several North Carolina
factories. He was a man of the
world and was given to dissipa-
tion. Twenty years ago this

sobriquet of Drummer Evange-
list. He was an attractive
speaker. possessed a pleasing
voice of great carrying power
and preached to good crowds
wherever he went.
After some years of this evan
gelical work his throat failed
him and he was forced to give
up preaching. He had accumu-
lated some money and this he in
vested in oil wells in the Beau
mont region Of Texas, which had
then just sprung into fame, and
later invested in Western min.
ing stocks, becoming associated
with the Great Western Oil Re.
fining and Pipe Line Company
and the Great Western Gold
Mining Company. having offices
in the Missouri Trust building,
in st. Louis.
His friends in this State. and

hoped to make out of his mining
and oil speculations he expected

FOR CATARRH MUCU-TONE

The chief ingredients of Mucu-Tone are
Gentian, Cubebs Cascara Sagrada, Glycerine,
and Sarsaparilla.
Gentian is recognized in medicine as one
of the greatest tonics ever discovered. 1t is
the foundation on which MucuTone is built.
Gentian combines in high degree the tonic
powers of all the known bitters," with none
of the disadvantages applying to them.
Cubebs have long been recognized as
specific in the treatment of all catarrhal condi-
tons. Its action is prompt and its benefit
almost invariable. In whatever part of the
body the infamed or diseased condition Of the
mucous membrane exists, the use of Cubebs
has been recommended by the best physicians
for many generations.
Cascara Sagrada is especially introduced for
its necessary laxative properties.
The combination of these with Clyccrinc
and Safsaparilla makes Mucu-Tone a remedy
that attacks catarrh from every point, gradu-
ally restores and rebuilds the diseased tissues
to their former health and strength, promotes
digestion and creates normal appetite.
