THE FORBIDDEN CITY.
Prince Honry of Germany and his
wife are the only foreigners, except the
members of the diplomatic corps, who
ever entered the palaco of the Chinese
emperor. Several foreign workmen, ma
chinists and mechanics, have been ad-
mitted to the forbidden city for the pur
pose of laying a toy railway and setting
up an orchestrion for the entertainment
of the empress duwager. The former
was a present from a French syndicate
which sought a concession for a railway
across China some years ago and desired
to convince the empress dowager by an
object lesson that it would be a great
convenience and advantage to her peo
ple.
The orcbestiion was a gif l from Li
Ilung Chang. “When he was viceroy of
rechili he organized a uatiye band, un-
der the leadership of a German musician
nt Tien Tain, winch acquired conaidcra
blc proficiency in the use of modern in
struments," says Wm. K. Curtis, in the
Chicago Herald,
To gratify his pride and to pay a com
pliment to his august sovereign, Li
Hung Chang sent the band to Pekin. It
was admitted to the forbidden city, and
the dowager was so much pleased with
the music that she kept playing all day
long, until the musicians had actually
blown themselves out. Nor was she
satisfied to let ttiem go until Earl Li
had secured a substitute iu the shape of
a large orchestrion, which was set up in
ono of the audience chambers, and af
forded an Immense amount of enjoy
r ent to tin old lady and members of the
court.
Tho Gprman leader of the band has
probably seen more of tho inside of the
forbidden city than any other foreigner,
ami from his descriptions and those ot
others who have been admitted it must
be a gorgeous and Interesting place. The
buildings represent the highest degree
of Chinese skill and taste in architect
ure. The temples are magnificent and
the parks con'ain many unique features
in landscape gardening and architectural
decorations.
A BAD EXAMPLE
The northerners when they talk ,of
ra -etroubles, remind us very much of
the old colored deacon who was called
on for a talk evert meeting. This old
man would get up and warn the mem-,
hers against drinking and one bright
Sabba'.h morning be it as delivering one
of his temperance gems of oratory,
when au older brother iu tho rear of
the house arose and said, "you telling
us not drink and I saw you with a jug
of liquor last night ”
The old deacon d'-.w himself up to
full length and answered him as follows
"dont do as 1 do but do as I say do,’’
This Is an old chesti.ut, it is true, but
it certainly fits those northern ‘negr”
lovers' who are continually censuring
the south for the ill treatment of the
oolored race, when up there they no
only lynch the gu*lly man but kill ev
ery negro ih sight.
But the fact that raco riots are now
frequent occurrences noith of the Mas
on and Dixon line does not excuse race
troubles in the south, but It will serve to
call a halt on the unjust criticisms of
the northern newspapers on southern
race troubles.
WHICH IS PROPER?
The editor of the Utica, N, Y., Ob
server, noting that only a small minor
ity of American newspapers spell the
name of the Chinese capital Pekin, his
own included, and believing the minor
ity to be in the right, took steps to sat
isfy himself by addressing a letter of in
quiry to Minister Wu, who promptly
replied sb follows:
“Dear Sir: lam in receipt of your
letter of the 14th inst, relative to the
proper spelling of the Chinese capital.
My opinion is that Peking is correct;
for In the Chinese pronunciation Its fin
al sound is that of ‘ng’ and not of ‘n.’
Tho French, I believe, write It ‘Pekin,’
because in their pronunciation of the
word thus written the Chinese sounds
are preserved. But the spelling in Eng
lish should be ‘Peking,’ You observe
that tie Century Atlas has ‘Peking,’
Very truly yours,
Wu Ting-Fano.”
“Washington, August 16 ”
ON THE RIGHT LINE.
A prominent business man told the
editor of the Timii-Call yesterday
that the editorial in yesterday’s issue
urging the business men to make an ef
fort in the direction of securing cotton
exporting firms for Brunswick was on
the right line.
This gentleman further stated that
one large firm of this kind paid out
more money than three or four email
factories and we agree with him. It is
true that a cotton shipping firm does
not employ as many hands as three fac
tories, but better wages are paid.
The securing of a cotton shipping con
cern does not require local capital, but
It does mean that the representative
business men must get together and
make a grand effort.
ENGLAND AND FRANCE.
It is evident from articles lately pubs
llsbed in the Pall Mall Gazette and
other London newspapers that a great
many Englishmen arc haunted with the
beli.f ihat the French will attempt to
invade their island at no distant date.
No attack of the kind Is expected durin?
the next three months, hut the theory of
the alarmists is that, after the Paris ex
position is closed in November, the
Waldeck-Rosseau ministry will be suc
ceeded by a cabinet representing the so
called nationalists, who are bitter hat
ers of their neighbors across the channel,
and who are convinced that their coun
try's prestige can best be retrieved at
England's expense.
Thk Timks Cali, has it from a relia
ble source that a general wooder.tvare
factory will open in G’yun county
within the next few menths, and we
want to say right here that it will be
a sucoess beyond all exprotatione.
Factories of tbiskind are paying large
dividends in North aud Middle Geor
gia where the material has to be
freighted fifty miles, and here in
Glynn, it osn be bad rig.d ai the door
of the manufacturing plaut. In the
preposed new enterprise, the owners
have not asked for a dollar in Bruns
wick, and this is why we think they
mean business. Tbs Timks-Cali heart
ily weloomes any such conoerus.
Race riots in New Totk continue.
• THE BRUNSWICK TIMFS-CALL, AUGUST 30, iyoo.
RAILROAD COMMISSIONERS’ MEETING
There Is no doubt but that the meet
ing of the railroad commissioner from
many of the Southern sla'.es w 11 prove
of great commarcial int rest to the eu>
tire south.
The Timks-Call has often wondered
why the commissions did not got closer
togc'hcr and now that they arc in con
vection looking to this end, the result
will be watched with interest.
Though the machines now used by
the post office department for cancell
ing the stamps on letters can handle
from 40.000 to 50 000 envelopes per hour,
their work Is not rapid enough to meet
the increasing demands of the service,
and experiments are being made with
new devices with a capacity three times
as great as that of the old ODes.
The New York Journal says: “We
are sorry tor whtft we said about New
Orleans. We are disposed to think, af
ter all, that there are veiy few extenuat
ing circumstances about a desperate co
ored person and a razor.’’
The Amertcus Times-Recorder says:
“Some public officials are never as
black as they are painted, and some are
never as white as they sre whitewash
•and.”

of acceptance are occupying McKinley’s

Dsafoeii Oannot Bt Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed cons
dltion of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tnbe gets in
damea, you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing; and when it is en
tirely closed, deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will he destroyed forever.
Nine cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars, free. •>

"Just the blues.” And what are the
blue 6? Only another name, in general,
for a disordered liver and a diseased
stomach. Cleanse the liver, heal the
stomach, purify the blood, and thcre’H
be no more blues. It can be done by
the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. This medicine puts the dis
eased organs of digestion and nutrition
into a condition of sound health. It
eliminates from the blood all impure and
poisonous substances, and cleanses the
clogged liver. It contains neither al
cohol nor narcotics.
"I had liver complaint for the past fifteen
years, complicated with dyspepsia and gall
stones,” writes Mrs. N. Bernier, of 461 Itlm St.,
Oshkosh, Wls. "I doctored with seven of our
prominent doctors, and not one or all of them
nave done me the good, nor lxigun to do what
your medicines have. I have used three iwttles
of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, one
vial of his 1 Pleasant Pellets,' and one boftle of
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and have
gained about eighteen pounds since 1 first began
to take these remedies.”
