This preparation owes its eff

for i hundred years as remedies
for coughs and hoarseness.
In Rexall Cherry Juice Cough

of each ingredient does its own
particular work in easing the in
famed membranes, loosening
the phlegm and setting up a
condition Of health in the bron-

by a large number.
Norman II. Johnson, the attor-

address which abounded in good
ideas and practical suggestions.
Among the things he said might
be mentioned:
"The homestead law should be
repealed. It was not the lnten-
ton of the trainers of the bill
that the law should remain on
the statute books more than four
years."
eve passed a freight bill dur.
ing the legislature which, when
it goes into operation, will save
many dollars to the people, This
law is soon to be tested in the
courts"
Mr.. johnson said he hoped the
Merchants Association would not
60 into politics. He advocated
voting for morals and principles,
rather than for politics, and that
the time to work for the reforms
needed was before the election.
He thought it a good idea for the
business men to talk with candi.

Bank Robber Sentenced

Durham. May 19.-One of the
most peculiar cases, in many re-
poets, ever tried in this county
was that against CASTOR Blake,
colored, charged with robbing the
First National Bank of 81, 675
which was disposed of yesterday
by getting an admission of guilt
from the negro and then he was
given but four months on the
county roads. It was a COM
promise and an agreed verdict.
The court followed the advice of
the solicitor and the lawyers in
the case
The lawyers were asked about
the extraordinary affair and they
said that the State did lot have
sufficient evidence to convict and
we're afraid to 60 to trial, and
Blake was afraid of a conviction,
so it was agreed that the submits
sion should be entered and that
the defendant should get four
months. This Is understood to be
satisfactory to all sides. as
the bank wanted to clear up
the matter, not from the stand
point of loss, but to get it clear,
and the negro is evidently very
glad to get off so lightly,-special
