A Company that Gives Big Promises to
Young Men and Maidens.
A special dispatch from Boston, Mass.,
Bays: An organization known as the L ni
versal Benefit Association, recently started
in this city, has by its queer methods at
tracted the suspicion of the Insurance Com
missioners. It is a society of young men
and women, organized for the purpose ot
giving young people money to purchase a
home or commence business at the time of
real life instead of at death. The certifi
cates of benefit are issued in three classes,
namely. SSOO, SI,OOO and $2,000. Every
unmarried person of either sex is eligible
to membership. To enjoy the benefits of
the association a person must have belonged
to it at least eighteen months before mar
riage. If he marries before the expiration
of eighteen months he forfeits his member
ship, and can derive no benefits therefrom.
The modus operandi of conducting the in
stitution is as follows : For instance, a per
son wishes to take out a SI,OOO benefit. He
must pay an entrance fee in advance of $6;
30 days from the date of entrance he must
pay an annual fee of $1 In addition to the I
entrance and annual fees a monthly assess
ment of $1 10 is levied upon the member
during his continuance in the society. The
circulars state that while savings banks pay
only 6 per cent., the association will pay
1,000 per cent. As the association has just
begun operations, it having been organized
October, 1884, and incorporated under the
laws of New Hampshire, no benefit will
become due until 1886. The general im
pr sion is that the organization promises
too much remuneration to be genuine.
A WASHINGTON SPECULATION.
Lodging for 5,000 Men During Inaugura
t on Week.
A special dispatch from Washington says:
Persons who are thinking of coming to Wash
ington to see Mr. Cleveland inaugurated and
•who have not yet engaged rooms at hotels or
elsewhere will get an idea or two about
coming discomforts from a statement made
to-day by a man who visited the headquar
ters of the committee having in charge the
general arrangements for the celebration.
This man said he had rented 16 halls, and
would rent more if he found demand for
them. He said ne proposed to accommodate
•5,000 people. He had contracted for 3,000
cots and 2,000 mattresses. His charges for
lodging will be from $1.25 to $2 a day, and
from $2 75 to $3 50 a day for lodging and
board. Os course a man who pays $1.25 wi>l
have to sleep in a large room with other
persons. He proposes to furnish for $1.25
a cot or mattress, as is preferred; a blanket,
and a towel. The lodgers are supposed to
furnish their own hair brushes and combs
and tooth brushes. This speculative gen
tlemen said that he had to pay 90 cents at
the factory for cots and 60 cents for mat
tresses. He expects to clear from 15 to 20
cents on each lodger. Aire dy he has made
contracts to accommodate 700 men.
Career ot a “Countess.”
A special dispatch from Toronto, Canada,
says: Lena De Grasse, frequently called
the '‘Countess De Grasse,” whose marriage
with Cyrus Clarke Vandeventer has created
such excitement in Buffalo society circles,
is a native of this Province, where her rela
tives still reside. De Grasse is an assumed
name, and on account of the respectability
of her relatives her proper name is with
held.
When about fifteen years of age she met a
young man and fled to this city, where she
entered a disorderly house. She remained
here about three years and then went to
Buffalo. There she made the acquaintance
of a young married man, a son of one of
Buffalo’s prominent citizens, who became
infatuated with her. He furnished a house
and kept her in great style. She had her
own carriage and dressed in the most lavish
manner. It was at this time that she got
the title of the countess. The relations of
the couple became so noticeable that, to
avoid scandal, the father of the young man
in question offered Lena SIO,OOO to leave
the city. She accepted the offer and re
turned to Toronto, bat remained only a few
days, and then went to New York. There
she went on the stage, but soon forsook it
and found her way back to Buffalo. Lena
is a handsome and fa=cinating woman,
about twenty-one years of age, with large
blue eyes, dark hair and a fine figure.
‘BOUGH ON ITCH.’
“Rough on Itch” cures humors, eruptions
ringworms, tetter, salt rheum, frosted feet
hilnlains
Some one has declared conceit worse than
consumption, and the comparison is a true
cue. Many are the “conceited” who cry down
legitimate remedies, and who delude
suffering humanity, whose only salvation
is the immediate use of Dr. Bull’s Cough
Syrup.
A Prominent Farmer Writes.
Robust Station, Jones County, Ga., June 20th
1884—By the recommendation of Rev. C. C. Davis
used Dr. Mozely’s Lemon Elixir for indigestion, de
qility and nervous prostration, having been a great
(sufferer lor years and tried all known remedies for
these diseases, all ot which failed. Five boitles ot
Lemon Elixir made a new man of me and restored
rny strength and energy so that I can attend to my
farm with all ease and comfort. Refer any one to me.
lour friend,
William B. Emerson.
A Card From Cuthbert.
‘This is to certify that I used Dr. Mozley’s Lemon
Elixir for neuralgia of the head and eyes with the
most marked benefits to my general health. 1 would
gladly have paid SSOO for the relief it has given me at
a cost of two or three dollars.

Durham is historic. It was neutral ground
during the armistice between Sherman and
Johnson. Soldiers of both armies filled
their pouches with the tobacco storedthere,
and, after the surrender, marched home
ward. Soon orders camo from East, West,
North and South, for “more of that elegant
tobacco.” Then, ten men ran an unknown
factory. Now it employs 800 men, uses the
pink and pick of the Golden Belt, and the
Durham Bull is the trade-mark of this, the
best tobacco in the world. Blackwell’s Bull
Durham Smoking Tobacco has the largest
sale of any smoking tobacco in the world.
