'-'; ! James A. Fowler, Assistant United States Attorney-General, is frequently talked of in this connection. . He is considered by many to possess .the qualifications necessary in a. compro mise candidate. Fowler ran for Gov ernor 10 years ago, but was defeated by Benton H. McMillin..- Since that time he has been in the Department of Justice.' v- -r.;,-, ' ;";i;V--;. "I will not discuss Tennessee poli tics," was all Fowler said today wfien asked whether it was likely ttat he would run for Governor. - His answer was characteristic of all Tennessee politics ' in . Washington except Senator Taylor. The Senator got caught in an embarrassing posi tion between the two factions aoi has been subjected to a fine to which be has responded with a couple of broad sides. ' i-i .s , v s .". .r Taylor is credited with promising to make campaign speeches for the Patterson judical ticket, but he be came so disgusted witn tne general political situation in the State that he decided that the. would make speeches for nobody. - ; Probably no state has been torn by so bitter a fuedias prevails in Ten nessee. , It grows mainly out of the murder of former Senator Carmack and the pardoning of bis slayer by Governor Patterson.

Patient at Durham is Discharged as - Cured. A Durham special to the Newt and Observer gives an interesting account of cures of the dreaded disease, pella gra, as follows: ' . Mrs. C. F. Stevenson has been dis charged from the Watts Hospital in an apparently complete state of health a recovery, to all appearance, from pellagra in a very violent form. .- i ' i . i . . one came oeie six wetJtn ago arum Wake, brought by Dr. R. E. Nichols, of that county. She went under the care of Dr. Joe Graham, who was then preparing, to discharge from the hospital bis first cure, Mrs. R M. Baxley, of Hillsboro. ., The.method of treatment is simple, injections into the blood being the resource of the physician, and it is his opinion that there are no other signs of disease. The two reports going out from Durham in which cures were related, brought forth piles of mau. A num ber of physicians have mentioned the fact that they had received inquiries. At this time there are several other cases in eourse of treatment and all are yielding. . The impelling necessity of meeting aggravated form of the disease made it a special stud v of physicians and the result is that there are certainly five doctors of Durham who have ef fected cures, whether these be super ficial or permanent. ' 11 i A A ;1 Doctors disagree and when they do the patients .are said to suffer, but the inharmony is in their unwillingness' to talk. Four of Durham's medical society have discussed "the situation, but the four have declined to give the country the benefit of their addresses for the convenience of communica tion. . Upon the very high ground that it is unethical, this refusal was put But there have been no fewer than seven cures, all now doing well, is simple truth, v . When Dr. Graham was seen, he said that the country has been full of pel lagrous excitement and not too much wrought up at that, that he had' long regarded pellagra as one of the acut est crises in the matter of health. And without risking an ;. opinion : as to whether, cures are permanent or nrai'eelaredl'tiiat. XtmLif. greatly, to be desired and that a re turn of the disease would be treated as it has been. .. ..In that, other nameless doctors agree, expressing a greater fear . of return than Dr. Graham does. One of the successful workers of cures is colored doctor. For once, - the whites have been worse afflicted." Dr. Graham likewise made mention of the fact that the first mention of Southern pellagra went out from here and that the Associated Press had made many deaths for the country un der Durham date hne.- . 1 . .The story that Mrs. R. M. Baxley, recently cured, is dead, is a mistake, having been investigated. She is in East Durham, ape-pars to be well and is now doing her own house work. The Durham doctors really appear to be mastering one of the worst of the plagues. - i His Conscience Smote Him. Depot Agent Southern Ry.,' v r . ' Wilkesboro. N, C.

Davis, a fwhite man, who claims that his home is in Florence, 8.-C, was struck by a fast fruit train near the Buffalo Mill this morning about 8 o'clock, while walking on the track. Davis was struck by the end of the heavy beam that goes across the pilot of the engine. . tie was knocked off the track, and when pick ed up by some employees of tbe road he was in a dazed condition but not seriously injured. . ' ' ' -lie was walking on the track at tbo extreme end of the double track, where the tracks cross and it is supposed tiy several men who saw the accident that Davis was under the impression he was on a different track from the one the train was on. "Dr. R. S. Young attended the injured mm, and aster a thorough examination it was found that , he had received no serious inju ries . . ,;'. - . No one here knows the young man or .how long he has been faere. He is a, clean cut, intelligent looking young fellow, whose appearance indicated that he had at one time lived amid surroundings- where culture and re finement were not altogether foreign. His clothes were somewhat worn, al though made of good material and his whole make-up crave evidence of more prosperous times. He stated that he was a student at a college at Emory, rJ ..-. ai i-iii. j -i i us., oui mere is very lime aaina at tached to this statement on account of his age. It is very probable that he went to college somewhere, and h may be now out in the world to make his mark, but the world made its mark on him "fust." u ( f How it Originated. News and Observer. ' There was a fake report circulated early Monday morning in Raleigh to tbe effect that Congressman John M. Morehead 's yacht, with himself , and ttventy-seven guests, had been swamp ed Sunday afternoon when on a sail apa tne wnoie party was drowned, it created great distress until it was learned to fte a lake, 1 3 Asked how such a false rnmor could meafc-ihavefound circulation, a Raleigh wag yesterday said: a. can imagine no way except that somebody predicted that "when Butler got on Morehead ' yacht (meaning his political boat) he would sink it and all on boardand some fool made up the rest." ----' Must Not Use Cigarettes, Cigarette smokers are now barred from becoming city firemen in Can ton, O., under an order issued by Chief ttobert V.

"The Fire Department requires men who have, plenty of strength, with the brain to use it properly and the nerve .to make the brain use the muscle in the face of certain or pos sible death" AT HARVESTING TIME'-WHEN EV.
