'. .i That amailng lie which the dls- charged negro soldiers have been tell- f.int before the Senate committee on t 'military affairs ha begun to lose the , Jnterent which It at flrt posesed. i,Of course, no one could fall to be en T tertalned for a while by the story of ' Itow the Brownsville people murdered 'and wounded each other and fired Volley through window at their own u jtfomen and children, but a battallon- , told tale grows wearisome by repett- yon. Occasionally an exceptionally .-.'.Imaginative witness will Introduce a Variation of his own, but otherwise the . lying drags its slow length along with i, the most appalling sameness. The - ,nen are repeating their well-learned V lesson with a seml-mcchanlcal pre- clHlon born of military habit. The one w'nose creative Imagination evolv- ed the tale did not, of course, foresee that It would owe Its chk-f Interest to It absurdity and that even this v claim upon attention would be for ,'felted by repeated telling.

The gigantic proportions of the scheme may be inferred from the fact that a fine of 1100,000 is de manded upon the smuggled ljquor. It seem that the American manu facturer of big medicine has some thngs to learn from even poity old London. In these parts, however, the proprietor of a pipe line could pay the Internal revenue officers all their de mand and make a handsome profit besides. As w have believed that it would. the cotton Inquiry recently authorized by Congress is to embrace the South ern associations as well as the big exchanges. This Information ho been obtained at the Bureau of Cor poration by a Washington Post re porter. The commissioner of Cor porations will look Into the business methods of the Farmers' National Union, the Southern Cotton Associa tion, the National Dinners' Associa tion, and other organizations of a similar character. We can only say that thl Is nothing more than we expected and repeat our expression of regret that an investigation by an unfriendly agency has been pro voked. Senator Dryden's successor, Mr. Urlggs, Is expected to' form an ad dition to the number of "silent Sena tors." It seems tin at there are of these, thirteen, as follows: Alice, of Delaware, who goes out March 4; Ankeny, of Washington; Bulkeley, of Connecticut; Burnham, of New Hamp shire; Crane, of Massachusetts; Du I'ont, of Delaware; Kean, of New Jersey; Latimer, of South Carolina; Millard, of Nebraska, who also re tires next month; Nixon, of Nevada; I'iatt, of New York; Taliaferro, of Florida, and Wetmore, of Rhodn Is land. Senator Tillman's name is not printed here. The cat ha never got his tongue. The Montgomery Advertiser wins the prize offered by The Observer for the first approximately correct an swer to the question, "Whut is the name of tho Junior Senator from South Carolina?" There were many unsuccessful competitors, most of them holding to tho prevailing view mat no such Individual exists. Tho Advertiser, however, with its usual ihlriit for Information, did not ftop xhort of recourse to thn Congressional Directory, by which means It found that Senator Tillman has a colleague and that his namo is Asbury C.

'"y f Some people are ? natural i born grumblers. " ' I have known some men so wrapt up with their own wretched grumbling . disposition.' ' X that they thought It a v. helniout ; sin to look . pleasant ' on i" . aun shiny day; nor have a nice word to say to a. rosy-cheeked babfvwho was delighted with all it surround ings. I ' remember a bachelor fifty years ago, we were both at a dancong party, and he was doln a-nlcelv in an old-fashioned " Virginia reel, and' hl partner, a very pretty buxom lass. tnrew iter bead upon his shoulder. and he leaned over and kissed her. It looked to me as if he thought that was part of the programme, that It was his duty to pluck the rosebud that was offered, him. He never cracked a smile or even looked, as If he had played the gallant knight. The party looked at - each -other-and smiled, which the poor bachelor af fected not to understand. This poor fellow never thought best to marry; but has spent more than thirty years whining on an elegant farm, where he has both time and place to grum ble' to his heart's content He is blessed, (whether he considers it so or not) with good health and raises good crops of corn, wheat, cotton, watermelons and other things that make glad the heart of man. But It Is doubtful if he ever renders thanksgiving and praise to God for all His past goodness. But we don't know. Several years ago I heard that his crops would be abundant, and I said to him. "I hear, Mr. Jones, that your corn crop Is the finest in the county." He sighed and said, "Well, doctor, I must confess my crop liiks right well." How much better would It be for the individual, his friends and all around him if he would wear a cheerful countenance. That Is one of the gravest sins we will have to answer for; to think we should not be thankful for the Show era of blessings we receive every day. ungrateful wretches! Another grumbler I shall speak of with whom I was well acquainted for many years; and I never met him that he appeared happy and in good humor. Always something wrong: hla farm was too wet or to dry; seem ed to think if ho had the manage ment of the weather he could have regulated It much better. His fam ily were polite and refined; but the mellow sunshine of spring failed to awaken a feeling like May In his na ture. He had many of the good things of llfrt about him, but his grumbling disposition would not al low him to enjoy them. Some peo ple are so constituted they cannot help grumbling. There are somo people who become sour fro mbelng Jilted In their love sour from being Jilted In their love never appear to have known tho ten der passion, and still they, too, grum ble. I presume there are som nat ural born grumbler. In IMS, before there wa a rail road In one hundred and fifty miles of Mecklenburg, ther was a big bar becue and public speaking held In Charlotte, to get up stock to build the road to Columbia, S. C, and near ly all the prominent Democrats were In a bad humor, and were grumbling that the Whigs were ruining the country. They complained bitterly that the country was not financially able to build railroads; not only In Mecklenburg county, but the fnut terlngs were loud throughout the Stat... Home of the wiseacres of the county, who wero filled with conceit. publicly declared that not more than two train load of produce would be raised In one year, one In the spring and probably one In the fall. Every thing of a disheartening nature was said to drive thl wonderful aid from the civilization of the Htate. When the bill to Incorporate the North Carolina railroad, the State pledging two million dollars, and the people to ubcrlbe one million, the road to extend from Goldsboro to Charlotte, 223 miles, came to a final vote It was a ttle vote; Mr. Graves was president, he being n Democrat, gave the deciding vote for the State to take two-thirds of the stock. Before casting this de ciding vote he ws the most popular man In the Ptate, afterward hi doom was sealed, hi party wa op posed to internal improvement. Orumblers carried their opposition to their own hurt. We see there are grumbler both In public and private. Of the lat ter I shall mention a case In the northern part of the county. There was a men who had a game leg; and he wns nover known to laugh or en Joy a Joke; many year ago hi busi ness called him to enter tee yard of Mrs Andrew Springs; when half way from tho gate to the house he met two ferocious dog; Instantly he be gan fencing with a good heavy stick to keep the dogs away. Just at this moment Mrs. Bprlngs enme running out and halloed to Mr. Stewart, "Kill the dogs. Mr Pltewsrt. kill the dogs." Me answered. "Go to hell and kill your own dogs and don't bother me." Thl episode In his life was a true Index of hi way through life. So we find In every graoe or soci ety, and In every occupation of life those who will grumble with their fellowmen. or Ilk Jonah of old. who grumbled at th mercies of God. This Is the molt wonderful case that Is on record. If any of my old friends have forgotten the story, 1 would advise them to borrow a copy of the Bible and read It It will do you good. It trlke me that I have heard of ome female grumbler, but I will glv them th benefit of the doubt let afterward I had wished I had ssld nothing about it But I am sum the men grumble enough for both sexes. In both Church and State. There are two kind of grumblers and probably more that always make me tired. I mean the kind you meet who will talk, and talk, about their bad health; how their stomach refuse food, they are troubled with pain and sr-he. want of sleep, and feel had all the time. Now these peopis make a full scholar when dinner Is announced, especially If no allusion Is tnede to their ailments; another effective way to block their game of complaining. Is to give a good. stiff toddy Just when you meet them. These kind of people are tlrssome. and we soon learn to shun them. Let us try to be thankful for all th HH WAS IN TROCBLt "I we la trouble, but foun a.wty eut ef it en J nj a happy mn again. ! Dr. King's Kw Life PHI curie me of arenla eenriNtea," y V W.

' 3, B. ALEXANDER. THE WILDER CASE TO COME TJP. That Bostfc.WUder-Woodall Prescrip tion to be Brought Into Court Dr. ; Wilder , wlll Flgbt It With Two Good Law Teams A Terrible BUI of Indictment. ;-:''i 5'.. 6oma time last week Dr. H. M. Wilder - wrote er -preecrtptlonr "or to charged with writing one, for old man Dan Bostlc, a well-known police sta tion frequenter, and was summoned before th recorder on a charge of breaking the Watts law. Mt. J. P. WoodalL of Woodall & Sheppard, who filled the prescription, testified that Bostlo was not drunk when he saw htm. But Dr. Wilder was sent up to the Superio Court. The grand jury believing Bostlc's story, presented Dr. Wilder for violating the Wihat law. Dr. Wilder has retained Messrs. Maxwell & Keerans and Burwell St Canal er to represent him. The case, which will be tried seme day th( week, promises to be interesting. The bill of Indictment is as vigorous aa if Dr. Wilder had committed murder. It Is long and terrible, and bears earmark. If, In the next century, some relic hunter falls upon that' document, he will conclude that in the year 1907 the crime of liquor selling In Char lotte, North Carolina, was great, even greater than that of slaying a fellow man. The authorities have been searching for a doctor, the terrible man who writes prescriptions and makes the good people of Charlotte drunk. Dr. Wilder has been taken and it is now a question of strength of testimony. Mr. Woodall has declared that Bos tlc was not drunk when he called to have the prescription filled, but Bostlc swears that he waa drunk wthen Dr. Wilder gave U to him. Dr. Wilder has made no statement. Mr. Woodall Is a leading cltlsan of the community; Bostlc has no special standing. Dr. Wilder Is a man of fine ability and force of character. Therefore, the trial promises good copy. "DE WUST CRIME tJV ALL."

As a matter of fact ex-Judge Thomas Hardin Paynter succeeds Senator Blackburn on March Sd, Judge Paynter having served three terms In Congress and being elected from the bench, as he is now serving as a member of the court of ap peals.
