Honor to our noble women ! -
The great football game of Char
lotte yesterday seems to have been
a success, viewing- it from several
standpoints. It was most vigorous
ly contested and victory was very
adroitly achieved by the Charlotte
team. Financially, too, it was a
success, leaving some surplus over
expenditures. It was also not a
failure in casuality if reported cor
rectly by eye witnesses. One at
least, has little to glory over while
nursing himself of injuries sustain
ed. It is well that the strength,
dexterity and courage of the race he
Kept up to ideal American manhood
but when we sse the not infrequent
results of an essentially rough and
hazardous game, we shrink from
encouraging the modes that are
fought with so much danger. When
duty calls danger should be con
sidered only as far. as it does not
circu m vent a faithful discharge
thereof, but amusements may well
be discouraged that so frequently
bring pain and grief and disqualify
young men for the very life service
that athletic sports are intended to
prepare them for. ;
' Again we hear of the drunken
judge. The Burnsville Eagle says
that in the midst of a murder case
J udge Norwood became so drunk
v
that h9 had to dismiss court, and a
man on each side of him helped him
to his hotel. ' What a blot on pur
civilization and a mockery of our
courts, that we tolerate such a shame
as a drunken judge to defend the
peace and dignity of the State. If
i . m
uuo nwu in m giup ui an ir
resistible demon, he should in a sober
moment yiedd his place to some one
who would not brine: reproach upon
the lofty profession. ' -
SEVERE BUT JUST.
Twenty.d&bt Anarchists Condemned
- to Death and 06 to L.lfe Service.
Barcelona, Nov. 24 The Attor
ney General, who is personally con
ducting the pro&ecntion of the pris
oners who are under arrest for con
nection with the bomb-throwing in
a crowded street while a religious
procession , was passing on June 7
last, has announced that 28 of the
prisoners will.be sentenced to death
and 56 condemned to penal servi
tude for life. Great precautions
wifl be taken against disturbances
when the sentences are published.
The court will sit in the vault of
the fortress of Mont Juich' and only
the military and the attorneys will
be admitted. -The crime was one of
the moat fiendish outrages com
mitted by anarchists in the last few
years. The usual religious observ
ances of the feast of Corpus Christ!
were being observed and thouaands
of people lined toe rareets to witness
! the procession on it3 way to the an
cient church of Smia Maria del
Mir. Just as the j.rocession was
entering the church a bomb was
exploded in' ths cronl, killing a
di zsn people outright, and wound
ing 50 others, some of whom died
from their inj m.

Loose clothes and downy cushions
bring only a negative 6ort of com
fort to the woman who is suffering
with some disease or derangement
of the organs distinctly feminine.
Some clothes and some positions
make the pain and the discomfort
seem less. Perhaps the nerves are
most affected and this in turn dis
turbs the digestion. Nothing will
ever completely relieve but a radi
cal cure. The start of so-called
female complaints" may ba a very
slight thing indeed. It may be
that in the beginning some small
hygenic measures would stop the
trouble. Certainly at this time, a
little bit of the right medicine would
stop it, ' When the trouble becomes
worse, it is harder to cure, but still
it can be cured. Dr. Pierce s Favo
rite Prescription will positively
cure any trouble of this character.
It may be absolutely relied upon.
It affords lasting relief to a woman
whose natural modesty has kept her
from consulting a physician.

-tat's Surprise.
John Kernel tells of an Irishman
wno went to a aentjet c to nave a
tooth extracted.
The dentist told his assistant to
get behind the chair, and at the
proper time jab a pin in the patient's
leg, so that the pain there would
distract attention from the greater
agony in his jaw.
Tooth pull and pin stab came to
gether, and the Irishman, with a
howl of anguish, turned a dob ble
somersault, r
"Oh, murther !" he yelled ; "I
didn t know the roots was - so fur
down ! "London Figaro..

It's the best thing for tha
hair under : ail circumstances.
Just , as no man by taking
thought can add an inch .to
his stature, so no preparation,
can make hair. 'The utmost
that can be done is, to pro
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayer's Hair Vigor. It re
moves dandruff, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and;
just as a desert will' blossom
under rain- so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your: hail
to retain its normal color, or
if you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use
