The commlsaloners of Stanly county declared that they did not have . enouah money to payythe accumu- ' la ted interest and also the current In teres. A compromise was reached by which the county was to pay ,ouo very year, $(.0 00 of which would go to pay the current Interest and 13.- 0 the accrued Interest, court costs and attorney fees. The late Hon. Xerr Cralpe. of Salisbury. as named as the receiver. The 1st H. a. Springs owned $2R. 000 of these bonds at his death.

Tl detach ed coupons were placed In the hands of tho executor and theso were soui yesterday. They brought at auction, iinnlmitlv H rents on the dollar. There Is some Question as to the amount that these coupons really rep resent. The accrued Interest on the Whole Issue amounts to a Utile, lens than $27,000. The court cost and attorney fees will swell this figure to a eoneldersble sum. There Is but $.00 which can go yearly to pay this heavy Indebtedness. Mr. 8. Wlttkowsky. who Is thor oughly familiar with the whole case, ays that the detached coupons are worth but from 10 to 12 cents on the dollar. Others, however, declare that the price paid yesterday was a reasonable one. JTST BACK FROM THK KA ST. Mr. R. F.

WHY 81'FFER FROM RHEVM ATI8M Why suffer from rheumatism when one application of Chamberlain's I'uln Balm will relieve the pain? The quick relief which -this liniment affords makes rest snd sleep possible, and that alone is worth many times Its cost. Many who have used It honing only for a short re lief from suffering have been happily sur prised to find that after awhile the relief became permanent. Mrs. V. H. Liggett, of Yum Yum, Tennessee. 1'. 8. A., writes: "I am a great sufferer from rheumatism, all over from head to foot, and Cham berlain's Pain Balm is the only thing that will relieve the pain."
