8 The News i Observer. WEDNESDAY, - - August 4, 1897. NEW ADVERTISES!ENTS. Durham Fertilizer Co. —Fertilizers for Wheat. Allison & Addison —Fertilizers. Keeley Institute—What Men S;iy if It. Africans. THE WEATHER. For North Carolina —Generally fair; southeasterly winds. For Raleigh and Vicinity: Fair, con tinued warm. Weather Conditions.—The pressure is nearly uniform over the entire country and no distinct “low” or storm area exists. The barometer is highest in the extreme northwest and on the middle and north Atlantic coast. A few local rains occurred during the past, twenty four hours at Charleston (1:96 inches), Jacksonville, Atlanta, Mobile, and also in the extreme northwest. The weather this morning was clear to partly cloudy over the entire country, except that cloudy weather prevailed in the lake region and Missouri valley. Ihe tem perature is lower inthe extreme north west; elsewhere it continues warm. — CITY IN BRIEF. It is announced that Mr. Robt. W hito and Mrs. Nellie Carver will be married August 11th. The Railroad Commission yesterday ordered that a new dejsit be at once built at Mebane. The citizens of that place petitioned for one some months ago. About twenty-five of Raleigh’s business men will to-day have a barbecue and picnic at Tucker’s pond. It is a jolly good crowd —fine fellows every one of them—and they’ll have a jolly good time. Raleigh is represented at the Fire man’s Tournament in Fayetteville by Messrs. J. N. Mcllary, Alf. Thompson, Jr., Stanley Faison, W. 8. Moye and T. P. Lumsden. They went down yes terday. The Boy’s Brigade of the Tabernacle Sunday school will go down in a body, uniformed, to Red Springs to attend the Sunday School Chatanqua there. They will carry tents and camp in regular soldier fashion. The expenses of the last term of court here were heavier than they have been in many years —-5f1.660.70. It lin'd been a long while since two whole weeks were consumed in a court for the trial of criminal cases here. A large delegation of firemen from Durham passed here yesterday on their way to Fayetteville to attend the tourna ment. Those from Greensboro and Win ston went down the Cape bear and Yadkin Valley road. Tom Dnnn, who killed Will Kelly, will be given a preliminary hearing be fore Justice of the Peace Roberts this afternoon, at 3 o’clock. Joseph Terry, who is charged with perjury will have a hearing Saturday at 11 a. m. ANOTHER FORGER CAUGHT. An Ex-Convict From the North Carolina Penitentiary in Trouble. A graduate of the penitentiary here is keeping up his reputation in Norfolk, to the sorrow and at the expense of some of the business men there. His name is E. M. Delaney. He served a term in the State prison here for forgery and now he is in jail in Norfolk for a similar offence. Saturdav afternoon Delaney went into Messrs. Walke & Williams’ store and representing himself to he C. E. Blades, of the Blades Lumber Company, of Eliz abeth City, N. C., ordered five barrels ot lubricating oil. He wished three barrels shipped to Elizabeth City, N. C., and two to Newbern, N. C. The order was book ed and the oil sent out. Later the same day Delaney returned to the store and wished the firm to grant him a favor. He had two checks, one for $lO and another for sl3, signed by C .E. Blades, and drawn on the First National Bank of Elizabeth City. He requested the firm to cash these checks. Thinking the paper was straight, the money was handed De laney and he left the store. Nothing more was heard of Delaney, or Blades, by his dupes until Monday morning. The swindler evidently thought he had a “good thing” in Messrs. Walke & Wil liams. He returned to the store Mon day afternoon with another check, which, unlike the others, was not cashed, lhe firm had suspicioned that something was wrong, and upon investigation had found out that they had been swindled. 1 hey reported the case to police headquarters and Detective Arrington was sent out to > find the check flasher. The jeport was made at 6 o’clock, and in about an hour afterwards the detective arrested his man in Commercial Place. Shortly after his arrest, Delaney made a full confession of his misdeeds, attrib uting downfall all to whiskey, lie was under the influence of liquor when arrested. . Delaney is no stranger in Norfolk. Some time ago he operated quite successs fully in Norfolk, in his peculiar line of business—check forging. A.mong those who are said to have been his victims at that time are: Messrs. E .V. White & Co., R. W. Woodley & Co., and the Standard Oil Company. It is also stated that Delaney is wanted in Washington, D. C., and Baltimore for the same offense. A day or two ago he attempted to swin dle W. H. Terry & Co., wholesale drug gists, in the same manner in which lie duped Walke & Williams. The goods he ordered of Terry & Co. were not shipped, however, and the payment of a check tendered by him was also refused. Delaney is a young man, apparently about 35 years of age, neatly dressed and claims Maryland as his home. He served out his term in the penitentiary here. A. AND M. COLLEGE HOSPITAL. The site was yesterday selected for the $5,000 hospital to be erected at the A. and M. College. It will be on the open space just south of the main building. The plans for it will be ready next week, and bids will be asked for at once. The executive committee this morning advertised for bids for putting in the heating apparatus in the dormitories. For this purpose $3,800 is available. Providence, R. 1., Aug. 3.—Notice was posted in the Hope and Phoenix Mills in the Pawtucket valley, that the mills would be shut down during the coming week. STATE NEWS. Mr. John A. March, proprietor of the March House in Lexington, is dead, lie was very popular. The receipts of cotton at Wilmington since September Ist have been 234,490 bales against 171,103 bales the corres jlending eleven months last jear, sajs the Messenger. The Charlotte cotton mills began work Monday on a schedule of 66 hours per week. The operators will in future charge house rent at the rate of 25 cents a week for each room. The colored firemen’s State associa tion known as the North f arolina State Volunteer Firemen's Association, will hold its annual convention and tourna ment at Winston three days, beginning August 10th. The Concord Standard says the con tract has boon let for the brick work in the construction of the Coleman cot ton mill, to be built, and operated by negroes in Concord. It is expected that ihe factory, with 3.000 swindles and 100 looms, will l>e running before frost. We congratulate Mr. <’. W. Bidgood upon his promotion from the special at torneyship of* the Atlantic Coast Line, resident at Fayetteville, to that of At torney residing at Wilmington, succeed ing Mr. Geo. P. Elliott; and Mr. W. IT. Pope upon his appointment to succeed Mr. Bidgood in the place here.—Fayette ville Observer. We had prepared an article regarding the status of the stock law troubles at Southern Pines, hut were informed that the differences had been amicably set tled, hence we deem it wise to let the matter rest. However, wo will say that onr people regret that there was any trouble —especially defiance of law on the part of our native citizens, and we hope to hear of no further trouble.—Car thage Gazette. We were very glad to see Brother Forest Smith, of Tennessee, the new pastor at Louisbnrg, in Raleigh last week, on the way to his field. He has come to a good State, a country that is looking up; to an Association that is not excelled on earth: to the pastorate of a goodly church, in which there is every opportunity for going forward. lie is well educated, and has had good experi ence for a young man. We welcome him to the North Carolina brotherhood. —Biblical Recorder. Collector Harkins has evidently not heard the new civil service regulations. He has made the following appoint ments: A. C. Patterson, general depu ty collector to succeed 11. A. McEroy; Mrs. 11. S. Fanning, type writer and stenographer; State Senator Shore, of Yadkin, deputy for the ninth division; E. O. Maston, of Wilkes, deputy for the Wilkes district; Jno. F. Reynolds stamp deputy at Winston; F. J. Axley, stamp deputy at Statesville; J. B. Sparges, stamp deputy at Mt. Airy.

What Men Who Have Tried It -SAY OF- The Keeley Treatment AT GREENSBORO. N. C. Mr. Theo. Edwards, a lawyer as well as a splendid planter, of Bull Head, Green county, N. C., writes \V. H. Os borne, May 17, 1897, as follows: “Another year has passed making four since I left the Institute cured of my tlirist for intoxicating liquors, and as I have annually written you or Dorsey Battle since that time, assuring you of my faith in the permanency of the cure, I now assure you once more that time only adds faith in all good things it has done for me, and others who have taken the Treatment with a desire to reform their lives. lam glad to be able to report all the boys in. Greene who have taken the Treatment to be still on the right road, and are strong in their praises for what has been done for them. I was truly glad to know that you had at the Institute a goodly num ber of patients. As long as there are any drunkards, I do hope you will con tinue full up. Every day I live I thank God anew for sparing me long enough to take the Treatment, thereby saving my life, and my soul from damnation.” WISDOM The wise man or woman take* time by the forelock. We cannot believe that Solomon would have suffered year after year with RHEUMATISM or any other dis ease, when a reliable constitu tional cure is procurable. Rheumacide Is curing 98 per cent, of the pa tients. Don’t delay .A perma nent cure can be made when the first attacks appear. Later on when the blood becomes pois oned, the chances are against a cure. Rheumacide Is sold by druggists generally Price, $1 a bottle. The greatest of all blood purifiers.

Our Junior is considered the high man of our concern, butitisat his suggestion that we have written the above He is now a sojourn er at Morehead City, and he pathetically writes: “I find there are so few things attain able to man in this life that are sweet, for Heaien’s sake hold down the price of sugar " The '1 rust dictates and wo can’t heea the cry from Morehead, we can only sav that we are contident that sugar must go higher, buy while you may. The demand for “Roller Champion” Flour is daily increasing. A shipment has unavoid ably been delayed. We shall see that no such trouble occurs in the future.
