The weather has been very warm for '.he past few days, and work through the middle of the day has almost been suspended. In the northern cities the suffer ing from heat has been intense many persons being prostrated. We regret "to note, the death of Mrs. Lutha.

Cheap hotel rates have been secured and the cost of re maining over one night-will be a t rille. Every one interested in the -health and comfort of the town! should use his influence to rid the town, of hogs. Persons slopping over are suprised, not pleasantly, at the number al lowed on the streets here. Let's m ove 'em out. Mastei- Henrv Lee. son of Mrs. Erasmus Lee, of our town had the misfortune to cut his hand very badly Monday while out at the farm. The cut was caused from a reed slipping through his hand. Several of the fingers are cut to the bone which is quite painful. There-never was a better tim-e to visit the U. S. Navy Yard and Fortress Monroe than now. -Uncle Sam's battleships and many other implements of war will be twonderful to be hold. ' The excursion'-to Nor folk of July (ith 'will be the time to go. Fare, round trip from Dunn $2.75. Mr. W. A. Bell, one of Mingo's prosperous farmers and -energetic citizens, has been "seriously ill since last Friday with a UrSun trouble.

The district attorney in this district has two assistants, one of them is Col. O. J. Spears, of Lillington, the other is E. A. Johnson, a negro lawyer of Ral eigh. How's this for Republi canism in North Carolina. John son was not appointed solely be cause he was qualified for the place, but because the; negroes in this State make up the great er part of the Republican .party and demands representation. They should demand more, as they do the voting, to put the white bosses in.

Good looks are really more than skin deep, depending en tirely on a healthy condition of all the vital organs. If the liv er is inactive you have a bil lious look ; if your stomach is disordered, you have a dyspep tic look ; if your kidneys are af fected you have a pinched look. Secure good health and you will have good looks.

Hood, who spares no pains to secure the best of everything in his line for his many customers. He now has the valuable agency for Dr. King's New Discovery for con sumption, coughs and colds.

Hood & Grantham, Fowler Nominated. The Populist of this district, the third, held their congress ional convention at Clinton last Friday and nominated Hon. John E. Fowler, of that place, for re-election. With three candidates in the field Fowler will not stand the ghost of a chance for election. He has done nothing in congress except draw his nav and has no claim upon the people for any ' 'relief " that he has them. If there is no with the Reps-Pops his act of given fusion with- drawl from the race will be ask ed by the Republicans, and in crrn.tit.iide to that narty he , v should withdraw for had it not been for the Republicans lie would never have written "AT C, " after his name nor tapped "Uncle Sam's" cash box for $10,000. But we suppose FnwW is like all others that have tasted of the sweets of office he would like very much to be returned. r Are Y ou Weak Weakness manifests itself in the loss o ambition and aching bones. The blood is watery; the tissues are wastine the door is being opened fordisease. A bottle of Browns' Iron Bitters taken in time will restore your strength, soothe your nerves, make your -blood rich and red. Do you more good than an expensive special course of medicine. Browns' Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers. Ben sop News Notes. Correspondent to The Union. A number of the people , of this section will go on the ex cursion to Norfolk.
