GOLDSBORO, JST. C, THURSDAY SEPT- 16, 1897.

The barber sli. p of Mr A D. Ward nus r-ctutlv oeou tilted up with new 1 urtiit ure and is bow perhaps, the handsomest in the State. Few places the size of Golds boro have as matsy -churches. Soma of these churches are very handsome, too. aud all are neat and comfortable. Mu VV. A. Den murk, the effi cienl tax collector oi Gcidsboro township, gives notice that his books are now ready and that taxes for 1897 can be paid at his cilice iu the Court houe. Considerable pea-vine hay has been cureu this season. It seems to us that our farmers ought to rise more hay.' Tunu sands of bales of bay from other States have been sold in Golds boro this year. The weather continues very hot aud dusty. The schools which open this week are certainly hav ing a good hot time. Our graded school will begin September 20th, which is early enough. The cotton weighers are not as busy as they would like to be. If Mr. Prosperity wi'lonly deign to smile, .it King cotton, howevs er, the advanced pri':e will till our streets with carts aud wag ons loaded with the big bales. Some folks think that educa tion is the panacea for all our ills. But let us not forget there are other kinds of education be sides books the heart, and hand, as well as the brain need educa tion. The fellow who desires ed ucation for the sole purpose of escaping work is not the man who will develop iuto "a good, wholesome citizaa," as the great Henry Ward Beecher said. Hundreds of buggies are sold annually in Goldsboro. Most of them are manufactured in near- by towns. Why not manufacture them in Goldsboro? If you take awiy from Goldsboro the Fur. niture Factory, Oil Mills, Agri -cultural Works, Cotton Mill. Lumber Plant and a few other industries, the town would declire wonderfully iu amount of hosiness tlone. Would a buggy factory help the town? UiiS. A L Korcegay and Miss Mary Carrow have returned from Picdmout Springs. They were delighted with the water, the scenery, the hotel in fact everything. From time to time the Argls has told our people of the wonderful Piedmont Springs, and it is a pleasure to know that those who took the advice of the AKGCS, and went to Piedmont, found the half had not been told of the wonders of these waters. The Seven Springs folks seem to be iu dead earnest about a rail road. It would cost but little to build a road from here to Seven Springs. Thsre would be but little grading, and only two small creeks to bridge. That is one of the finest trucning sections in eastern Carolina. In fact, it seems to be the home of the strawberry. The road would do a good business both in freight and passenger traffic. We be lieve the road will eventually be build either from Goldsboro or LaGraDge. Well, the question of a new water works company is settled. The Aldermen have granted the franchise, and soon Goldsboro will have the advantage of an other water supply. The new company is composed of home people who are interested in everything that tends to the up building and prosperity of Golds boro. The Argus congratulates the reoi)le of the citv, for an abundance of good water directly concerns all alike. Wo go for-. ward. Messrs Cook & Singleton, two gentlemen who are engaged in. a general merchandise business in the country n3ar Wilson, and who have heretofore been patrons of tlie Wilson tobacco market, were in the city ta-day with several thousand pounds of tobacco which they sold on this market at figures far, in aavauce or any thing ever offered them on their hone, market. They were so well pleased at the results of their, sales they expressed the firm in tention of bringing all their to bacc to this market hereafter, as the difference in the price wil' overpay them for the -greater distance of transportation. This is only one of the many cases that could be cited daily.

J ust as the curtain of nijrht was slowly fal'ing at the close of yess terday, there was calmly, ebbing away the life of Policeman John D. Gaidner, and just as the lengthening shadows faded inco darkness of nii;ht, life's flicker iug light went out, and the spirit returned unto God who gave it. John D. Gardner was a big, brave kind hearted man. At the meeting of the Board of Alder men last night, Mayor Ilili and a number of the Aldermen spoke iu the highest terms of the faith ful policeman. Few people rcaPzi the duties, dangers and responsibilities of the policemen, aud few realize how much we owe to the vigis ance of the faithful officer, who, in the lone watches of the night, is ever on the alert that our sleep may be undisturbed, and out lives and property kept sai'e from all harm. No man in a, community is iu closer touch with all the people than are the policemen. Amid summer's burning heat, and win ter's fretzaig coid, they are the sentinels who stand r- ady at all times to answer the call, "Watch man, what cf the night!" The death of Policeman Gardner is therefore a great loss to the citi zens of Goldsboro. He was SI years of age. He was happily married a little over a year ago to a daughter of Mr. N. B. Outlaw. The sorrow ing w'idow has the sympathy of the entire community. THE DREADED CON'SUMl'TIOiT CAN Bii CURED. T. A. fc-locum, M.

Regular Routine Business Ah Election Ordered to Issue ISonds for Sewerage and a Franchise for New Water Company Asked Foi Daily Argus last Thursday. There was an unusual number of visitors present at the city hall last night when Mayor Hill called the regular monthly Kessioii of the Board of Aldermen together and City Clerk Bain read the report of the last meeting, which was approved aud adopted. Alderman Cbx submitted a report as to the drainage system on the Western slope of the eitj-, which was approved and adopted at the tiiue, but was afterward reconsidered on account of a subsequent action of the Board. Alderman Hilker moved that the city call an election as early as practicable te vote on the question of issuing bonds in the sum ol $25,000 for the erection of a system of sew erage. The motion was carried unamimously and a new registration was ordered for tins special election. Alderman Hilker reported that he had made arrangements with the Water Company to s.upply the street sprinkler at 12U- per thousand gal lons. City Clerk Bain read the following Communication: To The Honorable Board of Alder men of the City of Goldsboro: The undersigned respectfully ask that the right, privilege and franchise be granted to the undersigned, their successors and assigns, for the period of Thirty (30) Years, of erecting, maintaining, and operating a system of water works and of using the streets, alleys, public squares, and all other public places within the corporate limits of the City of Golds boro. as they now exist, and withm such territory as may now or may be hereafter under its jurisdiction, for I the purpose of laying pipes, mains and other conduits, and other ap paratus for conducting and furnish ing good, wholesome water to the inhabitants of the City of Goldsboro, and for making repairs and exten sions to the said system ironi time to time during the period in which said franchise shall be in force.

O'Berry, who was present and inside the official enclosure, artse and addressed the chair in a few pertinent remarks in advocacy of the measure. Mr. I. r . Dortch the president ot the Goldsboro Water Company, was present also, and made a ringing speech m opposition to the measure. Alter considerable discussion by members - of the Board and the parties who are interested in the proved, the matter wa ix-f errod to the ire fifta V aieK (Joifliiuttoe wiln power to net ana instructions to report to a called meeting of Board in less than three days. The chairman ot . the r ire and Water committee called a meeting of that committee for to-night at 8 o'clock. Judge Allen was granted permis- j sion to tap the cemented sewer run ning near his property. Alderuian Hilker ottered a resolution to have the city put in thorough sanitay con dition and the Clerk was instructed to notify Dr. M. E. Robinson that this work must be none at once. Chief of Bolice Freeman was in structed to rigidly enforce the ordinance in regard to gates swing ing open on the street. A motion by Alderman Creech to add another police officer to the force was lost. Alderman Borden moved that the tax rate be fixed at 50 cents on the $100 and $1.50 for the poll. The Street and Light committee of which Alderman Cox is chairman, were instructed to meet this morn ing and located the new arc and incandescent lights that the city has ordered. Mr. Jno. W. Edwards was given recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners for license to open a soloon on the corner of John and Walnut streets. Alderman Stevens, one of the col ored members of the Board, asked that something be done to rid the suburb of Little Washington of so much vagrancy and to stop the gambling in that part of town. The pay roll and accounts amount ing to $805.83 was read and allowed. The reports of the different city officers, were read and approved and the report of Mayor Hill was ordered published, in the Argus which is as follows: MAYOR'S OFFICE. September 2nd, '97. To the Honorable Board of Alder men: Gentlemen: I respectfully submit this my report for the month of Au gust. I have tried during the month thirty-live cases of which five were State cases and one appeal to the Superior Court, Fines and costs amounting to one hundred and sev enty dollars and sixty-live cents. I have issued nineteen burial permits. Nine for Willow Dale, of which three were for parties brought from abroad for interment here, and ten for rdm wood cemetery. Eighteen deaths reported,of which nine were white and nine black. Pive were over sixty-four; eleven under three years old and two still born. Seventeen births reported, of which seven were white and ten black of which three were still born. One arc and ten incandescent lights reported out.

Where this rumor start ed,! know not. Something should be done to blot this stigma from our good name- The health of the city is as good as it has been for years at this season, which statement is made fiom the official reeordsi. This speaks well for the sanitary condition of the city, at the present - time, for this .season has been one peculiarly favorable for the development of ma laria, the heavy rains setting in much earlier than usual, which we had all during the months of June, July and August and in every in stance followed by extremely hot spells of weather. L venture the as sertion that no city in the State can show a better health record than Goldsboro. There are many things though that ought to be done for the sanitary condition of our city, and all this talk should spur us up to remove all possible causes which might in any way be the promoter of sickness. Each succeeding season demonstrates more fully the abso lute necessity for a proper system of sewerage for our growing city and the sooner we go to work and have it, the better oil' wr will be 3v?o city anywhefl' is more favora-. My located for a cheap and effective system. Let us all pull together and strive to have this much needed ne cessity. One thing I would especially re commend for the health of the city. Permit has been granted to the two hotels and to the county jail to con nect then- pipes with our drain which empties into the big ditch. Ihis dram has openings at various points in the city at street crossings and the nox ious and highly poisonous gasses from these openings are waited over contiguous lots . The proprietors of these sewers should be required to disconnect them from our dram and continue their pipes to the big ditch. having them well cemented and hav ing no openings. They might unite at some point and have a common out let to the big ditch. There is some necessary drainage that should be done this fall, as ear ly as possible. I will mention espe cially the square embraced between AYest Centre and James and Ashe and Mulberry streets it stands as a continual menace to the health of the community and is in the very heart of the city, out of view of the gener al public, but well known to the city authorities. Then the large ditch leading from the upper cotton yard needs deepening and piping laid in it across John to William and on to the big ditch. This would remove in niy opinion a possible cause for sickness in the upper portion of our city. There are other places that need es pecial care. Lot owners should pay more attention to their back lots. The city is now and has been doing all it can to keep the city clean, but without the co operation of lot own ers many places must be neglected. No city does more for its citizens than ours and I am afraid too many think that all should be done by the city and nothing by themselves. Much refuse is put into the street, that might be burnt by housekeep ers in their cooking stoves, without trouble to themselves, but which would add greatly to the comfort of passers by. Bead poultry and the of fal from cleaning poultry and fish is thrown into the street sand lots with out notifying any one and left toput nfy under the hot sun until acciden tally discovered. Attention to these matters and co-operation of all with our Police, in reporting promptly any nuisance (for we only have two on duty at a time and they can not be everywhere) will continue to make us what we are, the healthiest and best city in the State.

A Graphic Description of Alaska and the Klondike. BY LIEUT. TOM WASHINGTON, A .(.iokisboro Hoy, Who is Now Sailing in Alaskan Waters The Dangers That Reset the Many Travel ers to tlie Gold Fields The Uahits anl Customs of the Indian Inhabi tants of 1 hat Klch Conntry. U. S. S. Patterson, ) Kiliisnoo, Alaska, v August.18, 1S97. J The recent surprising discovery oi gold in the Klondike region has converted Alaska into a con dition similar to that of California in 1S-49. Almost daily, steamers from San Francisco, Seattle and Victoiia arc landing from 200 to 500 miners, all intent upon mak ing a fortune in the newly-discovered gold fields. Dyea, the landing place of these miners, is a small village at the head of Taya inlet and at the foot of the Chilkoot pass. The dis tance from there 10 the Klondike is about 700 miles and under good weather conditions takes about one month to make the trip. From Dyea to the top of the pass the as cent is of the mott difficult and trying kind, and many hardy men abandon their hopes and return before reaching the summit. From the piss on, the journey is over a succession of lakes, portages, riv ers, and rolling land and ex cepting cold and mosquitoes, is frought with no greai difficulty. Already the wiutor snows have commenced and the dangers of Chilkoot pass has become much greater than a month since, and it is supposed that the amount of privation aud death among the 20,000 men now en route to the Klondike will be very great. Each man has to carry his own gear, as freighting is too expen sive to pay. It costs from 35 to GO cents per pound to freight over tke pass and but few can pay these charges. The long, cold frintcT, the thermometer falling to 7 0 degroess, will cause many to regret that they ever undertook to visit the Klon ike gold fields. Still the remarkable success of many justifies the present rush. More than 2,000,000 have been taken out during the past year, and the output of the present yeav is supposed to be much greater. Several men have returned after only a year's stay with sums ranging ironi $2U,ouu to tfiou,- 000, and nuggets claim that the dust and were obtained with but little labor . Until the present remarkable deposits of the Klondike became known, but little knowledge was had of the wonderful gold mines of Alaska; yet for many years past the gold output of this terri tory has annually almost paid the purchase price paid the Russian Government. Add to this the valuable seal, whale and other fisheries, the immense, tracts of timbered lands and the as yet un worked beds of coal and iron almost everywhere, and one sees at a glance the unlimited natural wealth of fhis but little known famous Treadwell Junean the larg world has alone the United States the original purchase price of Alaska and is monthly turning out nearly $1,000,000, while its sister mine, the Mexico, only a half mile or less distant, is devel oping more and more as the vein is opened.

Surely, the United States has no cause to regret the wisdom of the men who in IS 67 purchased this territory and added it to our domain. Here we are in the midst of some of the grandest scenery to be found the world over. On all sides are high snowclad moun tains, while below the snow line are the dense green forests, the great variety of colored grasses, ferns and wild flowers, with ber ries in abundance. A temperature at the shore line of about OS de grees, gradually falling to that of perpetual ice, is surely, when within range of the eye, a most remarkable situation. The glaci ers curling aud winding their ways dov;n from high upon the moun tain tops, showing themselves here, hidden there, reappearing arxj finally stopping where the tides and watos break off the ice masses, constitute one of the most interesting of the beauties of Alaska. Tho rays of sunlight striking the glaciers at different angles and upon varying thick nesses of the rugged masses of ice, torm some ot the grandest spectmn effects imaginable. From one point could be counted as many as fourteen of these glaciers, of different sizes, and unknown lengths, for so jagged is the sur face of thy ice due to the crushing and crunching as the immense masses is squeezed slowly down ward, and so cold tho surround ings, that no man has t'lus far been to the source of any of these larger ice streams. Their length and course are only conjectural. Very frequently one can see heaVy snow storms up on the mountains, while lower down the sun is shining brightly, or the snow has molted into a warm rain. A rain will, in a very few min utes, cause hundreds of streams to come leaping down the mountain sides from the melting snow or ice, and displaying, as they come in their irregular, jumpin g courses, very pretty prismatic views. The aurora borealis is, with the shortening of the days, becoming more and more brilliant, and al ready presents in ever changing light and colors a dazzliDgly mag nificent spectacle, far surpassing any display of human effort. An attempt at description of the au rora borealis would be useless its grandeur and magnificence must be seen to be in any measure un derstood. This is tho season when tho In dians begin to catch and cure their winter supply of fish and venison, and on almost every water course of anv size can be seen numbers of U'HK (iUANUtST IttSMKOY.

The streams are full of salmon and will remain so for about two or three weeks longer, when they disappear almost as suddenly as they came. So full are the streams that one has only to wade into the shallow water and pick out or catch in his hands fish of any s'"ze, from a few pounds in weight up. The fish are so numerous and so packed that they can't get out of the way and hence a selection of only just such as one desires can be made before ctooping to catch them and these are all salmon of fine quality . The Indians take such of the salmon as they wish, split them down the backs and dry them on latticed frames. When dry the fish keep indefinitely and form the principal source of the native food supply. Bears come down from the mountains to the streams to feed on the salmon and are killed by the Indians lying in ambush for them. The flesh of tho bear and deer is dried very similarly to that uf salmon and these practical ly compose the meat supply of all Alaskan Indians from October until April. Many varieties of fish and game are to be had throughout the year but the habits of theln dians are so indolent that they prefer to gather and dry their food while it is easily obtained during the warm weather, and spend the long winter in dancing, singing and giying one another feasts. A l play and no work seeccsto be their winter motto and. in summer as little work as possible. They get all the enjoy ment they can from life and spend only such moments as may be necessary in gathering the ne cessities to carry on their good limes. In all work the women and children appear to be as impor tant as the men. So soon as a boy or girl ,13 tall enough, it is taught how to paddle a canoe, dry fish, or build a camp; and by the time the l;ttle ones are six or eight years of age they are kept as steadily and laboriously at work doing their part as the fa ther or mother. Yet with all this one seldom sees happier or more mischievous children than these young Indians. Their parents are always indulgent and join as heartily in the children's plays as do the youngsters themselyes. The Indian population is esti mated to number about 30,000 aud it is kuown that it is not in creasing, bat supposed to be either about stationary cr. de-. creasing. This is due to the cus tom of bathing daily all the year in the sea, the intense wintry cold causing tha development of pulmonary diseases and killing off all those except of the har diest sort. Another ' great factor in the Indian trouble is rum, in evil which neither the men nor the women seem able to with stand and this rum is of such a vile quality that its ravages are soon noticeable. The stringent laws, forbidding the introduction of alcoholic liquors into the ter ritory seem to have no effect in preventing the Indians from get ting them. We are still at work here and looking with more or less pleas ure to the beginning of October, when our labors cease, and we sail for San Francisco. Juut at present we are engaged at the junction of Frederick and Chatham Sounds, and' hope to have a sufficiently well charted course for ships to come up from outside, and thus enable sailing vessels to compete with steamers using the inside track, and so reduce the enormous freight rates now charged. The wonderful gold findings in the'Klondike region of the Yukon valley has givpn Alaska a won derful boom, and steamers crowded with adventruous spirits are rushing to the New Eldora do. There are undoubtedly very excellent prospects for a strong man able and willing to work, and hardy enough to endure the vicissitudes of a climate ranging from wintry cold of 60 degrees below zero to 120 degrees in mid summer.

We could not rocognize the tune (and the band played only the one) but were informed by its native leaders that "him he play he march through Georgia," Sitka society displays with .the usual pride of far away places the fashions of a few past years, but it does not concern a people who are both satisfied and lazy that they should be in any wise behind in style.

Alaska has been hitherto al most terra incognita, and its location on the map hardly known. But the gold findings haya created for this remote land an impetus of immigration which can only result in incalculable good: and when its wonderful natural advantages are utilized, its borders filled with an energet ic race, it id not hazardous to predict) that this aountry will take proud rank among the ricfr est and most prosperous of her sister sovereignties. I am glad to have looked upon the place of primeval Nature in her wild Northern home, whose beauty, sublimity and grandeur far surpass all my memories of the varied scenes of many climes. T. W. ONE OF TWO WAYS. The bladder was created for one pur pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine, and as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by ono of two ways. The first way is from im perfect action of the kidneys. Tho soc ond way is from careless local treat ment of other diseases. CHIEF CAUSE, Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the womb, like the blad der, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or disease except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, therefore any pain, disease or inconvenience mani fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error rs easily avoided. To find out correctly, set your' urine aside for twenty-four hours, a sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble.
