WHITE. A NEGRO FIEND a He Rum The Gusntlett of Cabins District and Is Arrested. Thursday the otherwise peaceful district o! Cabins was disturbed by tbe presence of a notorious negro, whose sole aim seemed to be insulting the white people, ladies especially. He always found that there were no men around home before he made bis demands, first lor water and then for food, always asking those in tbe premises if they had a gun around. Tbe first house that he visited was the borne of Chas B. Bostwick, where be found hie two daughters and young eon present He was very insolent there but fearing the gun he went off. He next went to the house of Wes ley Dickens, and stole a lot of wealing apparel. He visited three other places and finally wound up at Mr. P. H. Welle’ house, where be terrorized the ladies, but made hie escape. He “’as captured at Luella by Bailiff Will Morrow, upon the suggestion of C. B. Bostwick, and was found with part qf tbe clothes be had stolen on him. Hie name is Manse Johnson and is now in jail, having been brought here under a warrant. He is supposed to be wanted in several places. That Joyful Feeling With the exilarating sense of renewed health and strength and internal cleanli ness, which follows the use of Syrup of Figs is unknown to the few who have not progressed beyond the old time medicines and the cheap substitutes sometimes offer ed but never accepted by the well-inform ed. CASTORIA. Bears the 1 ha Kind You Haw Always Bought Signature <>f Freezing Point Nearly Reached- Jacksom, Miss., Oct. 21.—There was a decided drop in temperature last night, the freezing point being missed only by six degress, and it is now very probable that within two or three days quarantines will be raised and refugees allowed to return to their homes. The fever record yesterday was very small, only eight new cases and two deaths being officially reported for tbe eotire state. Jackson has had no new esses today, but the re has been one death, Mrs. W. J. Crlsler. Many refu gees are anxious to return and the board is receiving many applications for pormissioa.to do so. Discovered By a Woman- Another great discovery has been macle, and that too, by a lady in this country. "Disease fastened its clutches upon her and for seven years she with stood its severest tests, but her vital organs were undermined and death seemed imminent. For three months she coughed incessantly, and could not sleep She finally discovered away to recovery, by purchasing of us a bot tle of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption, and was so much re lieved on taking first dose, that she slept all night; and with two bottles, has been absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs Luther Litz.” Thus writes W. C. Hammock & Co., of Shelby, N. C. Trial bottles free at J. N- Harris & Son’s and Carlisle & Ward's Drug Store. Regular size 50c and SIOO. Every bottle guaranteed. Mr. H. A. Pass, Bowman, Ga., writes “One of my children was very delicate and we despaired of raising It. For months my wife and I could hardly get a night’s rest until we began the use of Pitts’ Car minative. We found great relief from the first bottle.” Pitts’ Carminative acts promptly and cures permanently. It is pleasant to the taste, and children take it without coaxing. It is free from injurious drags and chemicals. “Spells’' of Southern Negroes. There are numerous harmless “spells” which are regular observances in the lives of the average southern negroes. Besides the root chewing, the track lift ing, etc., they have a love philter of frogs* legs cooked in still water, and the ashes of a bat are powerful enough to keep away a rival or an enemy. To make a dog stay at home they cut off the tip of his tail and bury it under the doorstep. To make a wife obedient they “draw her piotur’ ” and hide it in the shinglea Thus, waking or sleeping, there is a constant forcing or counter acting of destiny.—Philadelphia Times. CASTORIA. Bwn the Kiixi Vw Haw Always Bought BigMtW Oratory at Chicago- x The great peace jubileeat Chicago was attended by many of the great men of the nation. The president delivered an address, as did General Milts, Archbishop Ireland, and many qthers. Among tbe most eloquent and polished addresses was that of Judge Emory Speer, of Georgia. He was introduced py the chairman as "one of the fighting rebels that were led by fighting Joe Wheeler.” Among other things Judge Speer said: "As a Southern man, it is an ticipated today that I shall respond for the South. The sunny land of my home is very dear to me, and I shall be glad to testify to tbe devotion and genuine Americanism of its people; but now it would appear to be super fluous. Here, in this great American city, where the people with pious hands gathered tbe ashes of tbe Confederate dead ; here where with civic bounty they reared the funeral marble to guard and to immortalize the sacred trust—here before numerous of that noble army of veterans, whose com rades reverently attended on tbe path way to the tomb the pale, inanimate form of Winnie Davis, the Daughter of the Confederacy—here before those who, with sons of Confederate veter ans, aye, and with Confederate veter ans themselves, were aligned under the starry banner of our united conn* try against the common foe—with faces then so eloquent no tongue less than divine could add one thought to quicken tbe fancy or stir the soul of the union-loving patriot.” TUESDAY, OCT. 25th.
