Thirty or more lives were ! snuffed out, 60 people injured and property to the amount of $60,000,000 was destroyed as a result of atarnado which wrecked this little city last night. Of the known dead 14 are white people, , as follows: Isaac Reed, Mrs. Isaac Reed, Russell Reed, Ray mond Rood, Porter Foote, J L. Starrett, Harry Stovall, Jr., Mrs. Ester Phillips, Mrs. Belle Darden, two children of Mrs. Darden, Charles Frenze, A. M. Hood, un identified man. The tornado hovered about the city only a few minutes but its work of destruction was com plete. The Roman Catholic church, standing directly in the path of the storm, alone escaped damage or destruction and ?tancs tonight a grim sentinal on a j scene of desolation. Main street . and Cypress avtnue, the two: principal thoroughfares of the town, are impassable and are piled high with wreckage from end to end. Every business house is in ruins and there is hardly a home that has not at least suffered the loss of a roof ! or wing. The Arlington Hotel was totally demolished. Eighty guests were registered but all escaped uninjured. The Brinkley Hotel, Southern Hotel and Kelly Hotel were all destroyed without loss of life. Relief squads have been at work all day caring for the dead and injured. The Rock Island and Cotton Belt Railways have placed cars at the disposal of the relief committee and many peo ple are leaving Brinkley seeking temporary refuge at other points nearby. The dead were sent to Helena, from which point inter ment will take place. Mr. Azor Scroll Dead. Asherille Citizen. 13th. Mr. Azor Schell died yesterday noon at his home at No. 184 Woodfin street as the result f a stroke of paralysis which came Monday morning. Mr Schell was about 55 years of age and came here from Greens boro six months ago and became connected with the Jones wood working establishment He was a member of the First Baptist church of this city and a fine christain.

The funeral services will be held from the late resi dence Sunday afternoon, the hour to be determined upon the arrival from Texas of W. J. Schell, who cannot reach the city before early in the afternoon on Sunday. The remains will be taken to Greens boro Monday morning for inter ment !

The . aggregate production during the last 30 years amounts to $20. 000,000, this being about 83 per cent of the world's supply. The . production for 1908 was 65.53' . tons, vaiucd at $2,547,507. The Canadians are now turn ing their attention to ship build- i ing. A steel ship was recently launched in Nova Scotia, and now new dry docks have been con- structed at Collingwood, Ontario, 400 feet long. Work on a 705 ; feet dock is to follow shortly, and j this will prove of great benefit on the Upper Lakes. It has been suggested that Montreal should have an "Old Boys' Reunion." This scheme has been in operation for a num ber of years in the smaller towns throughout Canada. The idea is a good one. On a certain date the "Old Boys" arrive from all parts of the country and spend a few days in their old homes. The railroads give a reduced fare: the people give themselves up to feasting; speeches are made, and the whole thing serves as a great inspiration to the young. On the whole, it appears, Montreal thinks itself too big a town to favor such a scheme. The Ontario Education Depart ment has decided that henceforth the "u'J shall be retained in such words as "labour" and "honour" Their reason for this innovation is that the British system is in favor of retaining the "u" in such words. An Ottawa journal remarks: "We might as well revert to pounds, shillings and pence because England has not adopted the decimal currency. Canada has, we hope, reached that stage of her national development where she can take the best that comes from every country, and not pin herself down to a servile imitation of British things simply because they are British." The methods of the British suffragists are to be adopted in Canada soon. There are two camps, the Women's Suffrage Association and the Women's i Political Club. The latter is the I more aggressive body. Their president, a Miss Helen Cunning ham, has announced that they are going to make it hot for the members of Parliament It is rumored that many M. P.'s are having their whiskers shaved off in case the ladies invade Ottawa. One plank of the women's plat form aspears to be the single tax scheme advocated by Henry George in his book "Progress and Poverty."

Attorney General Bickett at Instructions of Governor Kitchen Brings Suit United States Supreme Court. Charlotte Chronicle. IB Attorney General Bickett, at the direction of Governor Kitchin, ha3 brough suit in the Supreme Court of the United States against Tennessee to establish the bound ary line between the two states. The disputed portion is in the Unaka Mountain section and is about 15 miles long and three to four miles wide. Gen. Theodore F. Davidson has been designated to appear in the case. Are You Saving This Money? Dr. Seaman A. Knapp. Commercial fertilizers have proven themselves a great value and are destined to play even a greater part in our farm economy, but it is only when used as sup plements to the home product that this will be so. It is only when used with green manure and barnyard manure that the most pernament improvements can be accomplished. It there fore, behooves the farmers of the South to give more attention to the conservation of farm manure. The small value frequently re alized from the use of barnyard manure arises from the fact that it was not properly saved and handled and the manure had lost the greater part of its plant food. If the manure is allowed to heat a large quantity of the nitrogenen is driven off into the atmosphere. On the other hand, ;f the manure is left exposed to the elements, the water from rains easily and rapidly leaches out the soluble plant food. So in order to get the most valuable manure, these sources of loss must be avoided. There are several ways of accomplishing this. Probably the best plan, where it is practicable, is to to haul the manure direct to the land and plow in. Again, especially with horse manure, etc, it is good to allow the manure to remain in the stable, using plenty of itter. The animals trarnp it down, thus excluding air, and as it is kept dry, it will keep with practically no loss. The litter used in bedding is not only of value itself as a fertilizer but serves to absorb all liquids and prevent their loss. If not practic able to pursue either of these methods, then a cheap shed can be provided and the manure stored in it until ready for use. There is one precaution that must be observed when the shed is used, and especially if the droppings from the horses pre dominate. Under these circum stances, the manure is apt to heat This should be avoided by dampening it Commercial fertilizers do not add vegetable matter, do not start soil fermentation, and do not correct mechanical defects of the soil. A ton of well-preserved manure from a well-fed horse contains about 9.8 pounds of I nitrogen 5.2 pounds of phospho ; ric acid, 9.6 pounds of potash . plant food that would cost $2.21 ' bought as commercial fertilizer. A horse weighing one thousand pounds will produce about twelve tons of manure per year, and this manure is consequently worth 7.6c per day, or about $27 per year. The manure from the average cow is worth 6.5c per day or $23.20 per year. Have you a pain of ;iny kind, any- where? Stop just a minute and think!

About Pistol "Totiaf.' Don Marquis. In Uncle Remus'i The Homo Mag azine for March. A reader takes exception to a recent article in which "packing a gun" or "toting a pistol", if you please is condemned, as a habit that fosters homicides. "In many parts of the South," wrues our correspondent, our women are not safe from attack on the part of criminal negroes, unless there are firearms about the house. There have been numerous cases where the pos session of a pistol, and a knowl edge of how to use it, has saved a woman from a fate worse than death." The point is well taken, and gets at the crux of a situation, which might have been more thoroughly discussed in the article mentioned. The practice condemned is not that of possessing a pistol in the home, or of carrying one abroad when there is likely to be real necessity for its use, as some times happens; but the very pre valent habit of carrying revolvers at such times and under such cir cumstances that they are not at all necessary. In the majority of cases they are carried rather in the foolish hope that there will be some oc casion or excuse for their display or use than because of any real danger which exists in a silly vanity, which is nonetheless dangerous because of its silliness. When a couple of deluded crea tures who share this sensational ism have a falling out, over some very trivial matter as frequent ly happens their first thought is not to fight it out with their fists, but to pull a gun and kill. Every village and town in the South has its quota of youths of this description; not as a rule "bad" boys in any general sense, but lacking in a sense of values. The village quarrel-which started over nothing important and would naturally end in a rough and tumble fight if the brawlers were not armed frequently winds up with a fatal shooting simply because the brawlers hap pen to have the pistols with them. The matter mentioned by our correspondent is in a different category altogether. Not only is the proper place of the pistol in the home since its presence there implies that it is to be used for purposes of legitimate defense but the acquisition of pistols for such purposes is to be ad vised, instead of merely excused. Every man should see that there is one in his home, and that his wife and daughters know how to use it quickly and effectively. What our correspondent says about the necessity for their use in this way ii, unfortunately, only too true, in many parts of the South; and an effective fire arm, simple in mechanism, should be in every home.

Two Negroes Catch a Fish Weighing 300 Pounds. Wilmington Star. The largest sturgeon caueht on the Cape Fear river in many months is reported to have been successfully landed yesterday alter a struggle in which he came near getting away from two colored fishermen, Abe Wright and his son, near Big Island, ten miles down the river. The sturgeon was caught in the nets of the Union Fish Company, by fishermen working in their interests, later brought to the city and by actual weitrht is said to have tipped the beam for 300 pounds. The big fish in making hi j way up the river weat through several shad nets, these being not strong enough to hold him. When he became entangled in the Union Fish Company's net which was very well filled, fishermen near at hand were ready to land him, and after a struggle of some time four men got him into the boat This one is known as of the cow sturgeon species of fish.

He knows that ninty-eight per cent of illness is attended with inac tive bowels and torpid liver. This condition poisons the system with noxious gases and waste matter which naturally accumlates and which must be removed through the bowels before health can be restored. Salts, ordinary pills and cathar tics may be truly likened to dyna mite. Through their harsh, ir ritating action they force a pas sage through the bowels, causing pain and damage to the delicate intestinal structure which weak ens the whole system, and at best only produces temporary relief. The repeated use of such treat ments cause chronic irritation of the stomach and bowels, hardens their tissues, deadens their nerves, stiffens their muscles and generally brings about an injur ious habit which sometimes has fatal results. We have a positive, pleasant and safe remedy for constipation and bowel disorders in general.
