Tribute to Worthy Negro
Death of Thomas Dunston the Well
Known Negro Barber Of Chapel
Hill-Succumbs to the Surgical
Operation at Hospital in Raleigh
Knew Vance ssand Ransom, and
Was a Staunch Democrat.
Raleigh Evening Times, June 7th-

There died in Raleigh on the ope-
rating table at Rex Hospital at D
O'Clock yesterday afternoon one OF
the best known and most universally
liked negroes in North Carolina
Thomas ,Dunston, the barber OF
Chapel Hill.
Thomas DunstOn, or ''PrOfessOr'
Thomas Dunston as he has been call
ed for years, was seized with intestine
obstruction Tuesday and was
brought to Raleigh yesterday after
noon and operated on at 3 O'Clock.
He died two hours later He was
about sixty years old.
There are thousands of men in
North Carolina who will read OF the
"Professors'' death with keen sor-
row. He was not like other negroes.
His contact with the students male
him different He shaved Baskerville,
McIver, Joyner, Aycock, Venable and
Alderman, and knew Vance and Ran
som and hundreds of others who
have achieved distinction. 'PrOfes-
sor" Dunston took pride in his friend
ship with these men. but his special
fovorite was President Alderman of
the University of Virginia. DR.. AL
derman never visited Chapel Hill
without calling on Thomas. never
took an important step, Thomas
always averred, without first con-
sulting him, and never failed to write
to Thomas every month.
Professor" Dunston was a stannch
Democrat. He would leave the lath-
er to dry on a mans face any day
while he angrilv explained to his Gus
toners that Cleveland was not re-
sponsible for the panic ans. six cent
cotton.
When Prof. n. c. S. Noble. of the
University, was told of the death OF
Thomas yesterday afternoon he was
shocked. Thomas was a friend of
Mr. Mobiles and had always been on
cordial terms with him.
SO long had Thomas been in Chap
ell Hill that one never conceived of his
ever dying. Twas the same with
Benny Booth, but they are both
gone.
Hundreds of men in North Caro-
lima will sigh for ''Professor" Dun.
ston, and DR.. Alderman in Virginia
will drop a tear.

A Noted Horse Trainer Of
Henderson, N. c., Once A
Sufferer From Stornch
Troubles, Tells What
Cured Him

The greatest quality needed in horse
training ispatience. One must also
know horse and get the horse to
know you, get the horses confidence.
Dyspepsia is the foe to every quail
ty needed to make Il success either in
training horses or any other business.
Mr.. William Garland, a prominent
horse trainer of Henderson, tells us
in the following what cured him OF
Dyspepia:
DR. RIcHARDs DYSPEPSIA TABLET Assoc1A-
TION, 5000 Worth ST., New York.
Gentlemen:
A friend who knew how suffered from
Dyspepsia went to Kerner- McNair' s drug
store four or five weeks ago and got me
bottle of DR.. Richards Dyspepsia Tab
let's. | started taking them with little
or no faith for | had tried many medi-
cines before without success; but it is a
fact that my health began to improve
almost at once.
And mind you, was greatly troubled
with sour stomach, and there were very
few things that agreed with me at ALL
also suffered much from constipation
| and had to use cathartics with great
frequency.
DIR. Richards Dyspepsia Tablets have
made my troubles disappear and | am
feeling as we'll as | ever did in my life
The constipation and bowel trouble has
| also been relieved with the use of the lit
| tie yellow pills that come with the tab,

came from Col. Timothy Pickering OF
Massachusetts,, a friend OF Washing
ton. and a member of his Cabinet,
opposing the acquisition OF Louisl-
ana; the second from Josiah Quincy,
another distinguished citizen Oh
| Massachusetts, over the proposed
admission of Louisiana as State OF
the Union; the third from the Hart
| ford convention, in which five States
we're represented, over the dissatls-
faction occasioned by the war with
Great Britain, and the fourth from
the Legislature of Massachusetts, be-
cause it was proposed to annex
Texas to the Federal Union.
A GREAT JEALOUS ANXIETY.
"TEe steady development OF the
South, especially territorially, stirred
in the North a great Jealous anx-
iety,' a fear OF great slave empire
and loss of political power. The ven
cradle Quincy pronounced it the
duty OF the North to take possession
of the government at any hazard,
even at the dissolution OF the Union
itself Adams and Giddings were
also nerved to such q pitch that they
issued all address declaring that the
annexation of Texas would be so in
furious to the interest Of the North
ern States as not only inevitably to
result in dissolution Of the Union, but
to fully justify it.
at would seem that Lincoln him
self puts at rest all doubts as to the
responsibility for the conflict in an
interview with Medill, OF the Chicago
Tribune, as given by Miss Tarbell in
her Life of Lincoln Gentlemen he
is reported as saying, after Boston,
Chicago has been the chief instru-
ment in bringing this war to the
country. The Northwest opposed
the South, az New England opposed
the South. 1t is you, Medill, who
are largely responsible for making
blood flow as it has. You called for
war until you had it. | have given
it to you. What you have asked for
you have had. Now you come beg
ging to be let off from the call for
more men which / have made to car

ought to be ashamed of yourself
GLOW can the Union be saved?'
Numbered Mr.. Calhoun from the
floor of the Senate IL years before
the beginning of hostilities There
is but one way by which it can be,
with certainty, and that is by full
and final settlement on the principles
OF Justice, on all the questions at is
sue between the two sections. The
South asks for justice, simple justice,
and less she ought not to take. She
has no compromise to offer but the
Constitution
"When the red curtain OF war roll
ed upon the American stage it reveal
ed the South in arms ready and will
ing to defend all that makes life
worth living, the freedom of coun-
try, the honor of people, the sanctity
of home"

Four Carpenters in Henderson
Who Had Dyspepsia and In
digestion State What
Cured Them.

The trade of carpentry requires
steady nerves, fine eyesight, ability
to figure and calculate quantities
and dimensions. 1t also requires a
natural aptitude for handling tools,
which is not given to all men by any
means. All these qualities possessed
by these four men, were in danger of
being impaired by Dyspepsia that
foe to good health. Indeed they were
not up to that standard of efficiency
so desirable and which they had been
accustomed to. When there is trou-
BILE in the stomach there is trouble in
the head, trouble with easy muscu-
lar action, trouble with clear eve
sight, trouble everywhere. This con-
ditiOn, however, is not incurable: on
the contrary the kerner-McNair Drug
Company have lately received a med
icine which not only cured these men
OF the plane and saw but did so when
everything else failed. 1t is called
DR.. Richards Dyspepsia Tablets and
the price will not affect you, as it is
only 90 cents per bottle.
In the way they were cured of DR..
Richards Dyspepsia Tablets cured
them, these fourcitizens of Henderson
say about thesame thing, as follows:
Dr. RICHARDS DYSPEPSIA TABLET Asso-
CATION, 53 and - Worth St. New

Gentlemen:
| believe there is no other medicine
equal to DR.. Richards Dyspepsia Tablets
for the.curing of stomach troubles. | got
a bottle of these tablets two months ago
at kerner MeNair's drug store and have
been taking them ever since with the
most beneficial results. This medicine
has wonderful effect upon the whole
system and has cured me of a bad case
OF Indigestion when everything else fail
ed. | want to say that it is the best
| medicine in the world for Dyspepsia and
| all stomach troubles.

EWING LOSES CHILD
RoundIy Scoring Oscar Ewing Judge
Sullivan Orders Child
Adopted.


For some reason not announced
Judge Sullivan, OF the county court
notified the attorneys involved in the
case that he would render q decision
in the locally celebrated Ewing case
this morning at ten O'Clock instead OF
tomorrow morning as announced yes
terday.
Attorney Samuel y. Wheeler. rep
resentlng the plaintiffs in the case.
Mr.. and Mrs W. s Hatton and their
daughter, Mrs. Oscar Ewing. and At
torney S. NJ. Logan representing the
defendant, Oscar Ewing. and Attor-
ney ]. E. beaverton, guardian of the
<'lild. were in the court room this
morning and Mr. and Mrs. Hatton and
Mrs. Ewing were also present. Ew-
ing and the little child over whose
possession this struggle In court was
brought about, We're not present. They
were not in the city.
Before rendering his decision Judge
Sullivan had Mrs. Ewing to take the
stand and asked her a few questions
relative TO her visits to Denver. She
declared that she had never been to
Denver but one time. in the spring
OF 1902. when. she claims, she and
her husband bought the girl baby
from Mrs Catherine Fitch, of that
city.
Judge Sullivan then rendered his
decision, decreeing that the child,
Ruby Ewing, be delivered by oscar
Ewing who now holds her in his pos
session, to Mr.. and Mrs. w. S. Hat
ton. the parents of Ewing's young
wife who seek to adopt the child and
who brought the action in court for
this purpose. The judge spoke at
length clearly stating his reasons
for this order. He severely scored
Ewing for the stand he had taken. He
expressed the belief that Ewing had
sworn falsely in several particulars.
He was convinced that he had per
Iured himself regarding the ehild's
parentage and declared that if Ewing
would deceive the court about the
fNA ~ f@tNAAAE,t ne NuuAu deceive
the court about other things. Judge
Sullivan declared that there was moth
ing in the evidence to substantiate
Ewing's charge that his wife had been
intimate with other men and unfaith-
full to her marriage vows, and he de-
nounced Ewing for making such
charges unless he was well prepared
TO prove them. The judge expressed
his belief in the testimony of the
young wife, declaring that he was
convinced that she was telling the
truth, that her story of the puehase
of the child was true and that Ewing's
claim that the child was born to him
and his wife was false.
Judge Sullivan gave reasons why
Ewing was not fit person to keen
and rear the little girl and showed
why Mr.. and Mrs. Hatton would be
able to properly care and rear the
child '
