Freight Wreck Sunday
The main line of the Southern
Railway was blocked Sunday
nig-ht on 'account of a freight
wreck about 9 o'clock just beyond
the Coddle Creek bridge A
northbound freight was traveling-
toward Concord, when about
a dozen coal cars jumped the
-track, several of them turning- ov
er on the side. Some of the cars
ran into the Southbound track,
completely tearing it up for some
distance, putting both tracks out
of commission. Some of the
southbound passenger trains were
held in Goncord until early Mon
day before the track was opened.
Although the wreckage had not
been cleared awa', the trains
coming north were run over the
southbound track for several hun
dred yards, and traffic was scarce
ly interrupted. No one was hurt
in the accident.
There is more Catarrh in this
section of the country than all
other-diseases put together, and
for years it was supposed to be
incurable. Doctors prescribed
local remedies, and by constautly
failing to cure wih -local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable.
Catarrh is a local disease, greatly
' influenced by constitutional con
ditions and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Medicine, manufactured
by F J Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio
is a constitutional remedy, is
taken internally and acts thru
the Blood on the mucous Sur
faces of the System. One Hun
dred Dollars reward is offered for
any case that Hall's Catarrh
Medicine fails to cure. Send for
circulars and testimonials free.

Three Explosions in Amelrcan Steamer.
Havana, May 28 Three
explosions occured in the hold
of the American steamer
Lackawanna today, while its
cargc ot coal was being un
loaded at the dock in the har
bor. Two Cubans and cue
Spanish workmen were injur
ed, the Cubans seriously.
The amount of damage to
the vessel has not been deter
mined, as the explosions
caused a fire, and it was nec
e3sary to hood the hole.
Capt. Johnston believes the
explosions were caused by
bombs placed by spies in Nor
folk, whence the ship sailed.

King's New Discovery. The
soothing balsam remedy heals
the throat, loosens the phlegm,

germ and the cold is quickly
broken up. Children and grown
