James Young in Brown of Harvard.

The career of James Young the star of
'Brown of Harvard which will be pre-
scented under the business management
OF the Shuberts at the Grand Theatre
next Tuesday evening, Oct. 9th, is an
illustration that success in the theatrical
world is attained after long study and
tireless efforts. Probably no other actor
on the English-speaking stage, certainly
none anywhere near his age, has under
gone such thorough training or enjoyed
such classical associations as has MIR.
Young during the sixteen years of his &C
tive professional experience. Like all
ambitious youths he, when little more
than a boy, chose the classics as his
first love and launched forth in star
ring tour of the South with a repertoir
of such plays as "Hamlet.' 1.-The Mer-
chant of Venice" Richard Ill. The
Lady OF Lyons, "Richelieu." He chose
as his motto Have no half dealings
with thine art" and a wise plan OF ac
ton it proved to be, for in seven years
he had advanced from a transforming
novice to one of the most popular of
road stars. whose success had attracted
the attention of the late Augustin DAILY,
and finally led to three years engage
ment with him of inestimable value. At
the death of the great master, Mr..
Young passed on to engagements in
leading roles with such stars AS Sir
Henry Irving, Mrs. Fiske, Annie Russell
and Viola Allen. his performance of

THE PUBLIC BENEFITED,
Rochester People Greatly Interested in
the Generous Offer of w. W.
Parker, Druggist.

The people have already demon
strated that they would rather trust
II man who is naturally honest, than
one who Was honest only because he
had to be.
W. W. Parker, druggist, has a
firmly established reputation for
square dealing and sterling honesty.
When he told the people that Rex
all remedies are the purest and most
dependable remedies that it is posi-
BILE for modern science to produce.
and that he would tell the public
exactly what each one of these 800
remedies contained. and that he
sold Rexall Remedies on his own
personal guarantee that they would
give entire satisfaction or the med
icine would not cost the user a single
cent, he was believed.
Ever since this announcement the
store OF W. W. Parker has been
crowded by people buying Rexall
Remedies; all of which proves that
Mr.. Parker has the confidence of the
people and that honesty is the best
policy.
There is no ''cure-all" anon" the
Rexall Remedies,-there are 800 diff
ferent and separate medicines: one
for each human ill, and each unques-
tlonably the best of it's kind.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are par
tlcularly recommended for the posi-
tive cure of stomach irritation, in.
digestion and dyspepsia. They are
| rich in Bismuth, Subnitrate Pepsin
and Carminatives, and are prepared
by a special process which perfects
and enhances the great curative
value of these well-known medicinal
agents. This remedy sells for 25c a
package. Everyone suffering from a
stomach disorder should try Rexal
Dyspepsia Tablets, inasmuch as they
cost nothing if they do not satisfy.

The Henderson GOLD LEAF, one OF
the Oldest and best weekly neWspa-
pers in the State, and published in
one of the most prosperous towns In
the eastern section of North Carolina,
is for sale. The editor OF the GOLD
LEAF, Mr.. Thad r. Manning, in pla-
cling his paper on the market has
this to say:
We offer this paper, outfit and good
will-everyt thing and appurtenance there
to belonging, for sale. Reasons therefor
abundant and satisfactory-to ourself;
1--WE have enough-not OF this world
goods, but OF experimentation 70 years
of continuous service We are simply
tired of the ceaseless grind and work
and worry-that distracts il it does not
kill Life is to short and the game Is

We want to quito save Ourself
from being driven to drink and desperh-
ton or forced into an untimely grave
or the lunatic asylum-either OF which
would bo preferable to contending with
unreliable and incompetent help and

The editor of the GOLD LEAF, who
is one OF the best of fellows, seems to
have lost his smoothness OF temper
when he wrote the above, but every
newspaper publisher who has had to
deal with unreliable and inpcompe-
tent help" knows how to sympathize
| with him. He is said to be a good
business man and we suspect that is
the real reason why he wishes to quit
the business i'm which he has been ell
gagged for more than quarter OF a
century. For the amount Of money
invested and energy put forth, there
is no other business in this State
that pays so little in dollars and
cents as the newspaper business, and
if editors and publishers were not al
TRUSTS and did not believe that they
were working for the welfare Of 9th
ers rather than themselves they would
indeed be driven to desperation. But
Manning will not quit. The ink has
been on his hands too long to wash off.

1t is interesting to observe that
the accident to Orville Wright has
in no way dampened public conf
dence in the thorough practicability
of the flying machine.
1t has been demonstrated that men
can fly in a machine that is heavier
than air, that thy can fly an hour or
more at the time. and that they can
thus cleave the air at speed of forty
or fifty miles an hour As in other
lines of human indeavor, so in build
ing and driving flying machines:
the highest records are not counted
as the end OF all advancement, but as
the starting point for fresh achieve
ments. In fact, before the daring in
ventor who came so near losing his
life at Fort Myer is out of danger
from the injuries received in the
wrecking of his machine. his brother,
Wilbur Wright, at LIE Mans, France,
captures from him the world record

They are always getting the cotton

something slightly out of Joint at the

the case with the picker invented by
Mr.. n. NJ. Henderson, who has found
time from his duties as chief of police
of Henderson, this State, to figure
out IL working model of a cotton
picking machine. The GOLD LEAF
tells us that 1.-The work is being
done by the Cardwell Machine Com
pany, in Richmond, and he says it is
progressing satisfactorily. But for
being delayed in getting some of the
material it would have been finished
before now. Mr. Henderson SAYS he
expects to have his machine ready
to give it d thorough trial with this
crop and he is more thoroughly
convinced now that he has the thing
that will do the work than he ever
was before" Some of the cotton pick
ing men have come mighty near stri-
king the right thing, fact that has
been publicly demonstrated in Char
lotte. We shall keep an expectant
eye on the Henderson mans inven-
ton, and if he is not too late getting
his machine out of the shop, will re-
serve a cotton field in Charlotte sub
urb in which he will be invited to

to warrant it in trying to discredit
him-a thing it could not do, any

him. But this fact is being and
ought to be brought to public atten
ton: that if he were Governor he
would have the appointment OF the
State board of elections which APP
points the county boards and they
in turn the registrars. We have no
doubt that Mr.. Cox if Governor
would appoint to the State board Of
elections men whom he thought hon
est and suitable but a majority Of
them would OF course be Republicans
and through them and their APP
pOintees i'll the counties the whole
election machinery OF the State
would be turned over to the Repub-

fear OF some that this would result
in the notification of the cOnsti-

not be a desirable condition 1T should
