LOCAL BRIEFS "We publish in another column of this issue Congressman Cous ins' tribute to the dead crew of the Maine, delivered in the House last Monday. In thought and sentiment and expression it is a gem without an equal in any language. Every reader of the Argus should cut it out and pre serve it. The newest thing in town and quite an ingenious invention, is the automatic peanut roaster of Messrs. Denning & Summerlin, at the. corner of John and Wal nut streets. These young men pay strict attention to business and are courteous and correct in all their dealings, and have thereby built up a fine trade in their line. The Board of County Commis sioners, in special session in this city Saturday, issued an order for an election in this city at the same time as the May municipal election, empowering the city to issue bonds to the amount of $30,000 for a complete system of sewerage. This city juid section cannot make much further prog ress until we have a complete system of sewerage, and the in vestment of 0,000 in long time low interest bearing bonds will briLug to Goldsboro and vicinity -lnbre of wealth and development than it is possible to portray. The new superintendent of the Odd Fellows' Orphans' Home, Mr. D. A. Coble, is already evinc ing that he is the right man in the right place. The beautiful new building is now in complete order and occupied. The boys are quartered exclusively in the old building and the girls in the new. while the large dining hall and the chapel in the new build ing are occupied in common Mrs. Coble and little daughter arrived last Friday and will be cordially welcomed by our citi zens. Mr. and Mrs. Coble reside in the lovely little cottage on the ground. ' A REPRESENTATIVE of the Argus made a trip to Wallace to-day to deliver stationery to the merchants of that town who are preparing for a heavy trade this spring, and while there made a short trip in company with Mr. T. Q. Hall to his straw berry farm. The whole field was in bloom and down under the leaves on the sunny side of the rows were strawberries two- thirds grown and as thick as they could grow. Mr. Hall is one of the leading merchants of the place, but he does not give his . entire time to his store, because , there is more money in straw berries, He says be made $300 clear of expenses from one acre last year and if prices are as good this year he will- do even better than that. That whole section is needing rain very much now. There never has been such a large acreage in berries before and they were never finer thus early in the season. $100 Reward $100. The reader of this papers will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all it stageB and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh " being a constitutional disease re ouirea a constitutional treatment, Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken inter nally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous, surfaces of the system. thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by b ulding up the consti tution and ass nting nature in doing its work.' The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure, Send for testimonials. Address, F.

The Court of Icqu'ry appointed to in vestigate the cause of the Maine disaster, has reported that the loss of the battleship was due to an outside explosion. The State Department by dU rection of the President has ca bled United States Minister Woodford at Madrid to notify the Spanish Government of this con clusion. The President and cabinet ad visers held two extended sessions to-day, one at 10,30 a. m., and an other at 3.30 p. m., at which the report was considered in detail. Members of the cabinet stated after meeting that the discussiou was cf grave character and that never since the wrecking ol the Maine has the situation seemed so critical. The Spanish Government has cabled officially to Washington that the (Spanish naval commis sion holds the disaster to the Maine to be of internal origin. The Government of Spair, it can be stated positively, is not disposed to turn back the torpe do flotilla now proceeding from the Canaries, and would be disin clined to consider a suggestion from this Government tending to interfere with the disposition by Spain of her own naval -forces. War preparations on an unpre cedented scale are being hurried to completion by the War and Navy departments, and the couutry, practically, is on a war footing. The foregoing gives th& record of one of the most eventful days the national capltol has een since the close of the civil war. It was a day of profoundly im portant action, of the deepest anxiety, coupled with naval and military activity, one step fol lowing another in rapid succes sion. Representative men of the administration, public men in all branches of official and Congres sional life, no less than the pub lic in general, shared in the ten sion to which the situation has been wrought. There was no ef fort among the highest officials, nor indeed was it possible, from what was clearly apparent in the developments of the day, to min mise the situation Viewed in detail the finding of the Court of Inquiry was the most vital feature. Commander Marix, Judge-Advocate of the Court of Inquiry, delivered the report to Secretary Long early this morning and shortly after, it was carried;to the White House and placed in the hands of the President. At 10.30 the Cabinet assem bled, half an hour earlier than usual, and began the considera tion of the momentous document. Eyen the rigid rules of secrecy which prevail at cabinet meetings were made doubly strict in this case, and no intimation oi tne results reached by the court were known until 4 o'clock, when an Associated Press bu'l3iii gave the informatian to the country, as well as the eagerly waiting officials throughout Washington. These results, brief ly stated, are that the loss of the Maine was due to an explosion from the outside, the court being unabla to fix the responsibility for the explosion. Tpe court does not express an opinion as to the character of the explosion, but the testimony goes to show that it was a powerful sub-marine Snow Balling. About one young woman In ten nowa days would dare to run out bare headed and bare hand-, ed and frolic and snow ball in midwinter. They have to be muffled up like hot-house flowers before they dare ven ture out in se vere weather, and even then would shudder at the thought of rollicking in the snow as their grand mothers did. The trouble lies in the fact that too few Women enjoy perfect health and strength of the special womanly organism. A wom an who is not well and strong locally can not enjoy good general health. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures all weakness and disease of the delicate and important organs concerned in wifehood and mother hood. It is the most perfect and scientific remedy ever devised for the peculiar ail ments of women. It restores womanly gower, strength and virility. It tones and. uilds up the nerves which have been shat tered by suffering and disease. It corrects all irregularities and derangements and stops exhausting drains. It restores weak, nervous invalids to perfect health. It is intended for this one class of disorders and is good for no other. It is the discovery of Dr. R. V. Pierce, for thirty years chief con sulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and, Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y. No other known medicine can take its place. " I have been troubled with female weakness that my physician called catarrh of the womb," writes Miss Tean Conner, of Catfish, Clarion Co., Pa. "I doctored for it and did not get better. At last I commenced taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1 got better right along and when I had taken four bottles was cured. I recom mended the ' Favorite Prescription ' to a friend of mine. She has been using it and thinks it is wonderful." Constipation Is a little illness that if neglected builds a big one. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation.

They never gripe. mine, the exact character of which is not determined by the testimony, though the belief was expressed that it was. a floating submarine mine There were two explosions, the court finds, the first from the outside, and that set ofi one of the smaller magazines. It was this result,-expressed in detail and with the precision of a court deeply conscious of its res sponsibility, together with the evidence on which it was based? that occupied the attention of the cabinet throughout its extended sessions this morning and after noon. The other and lesser sub jects gave way to this foremost question. There was no change in the plan of making the report public and transmitting it to Con gress early next week, accompa nied by a brief message from th3 President. Plant Rice. Itis thebes paying crop.

The temper of the House was significantly illustrated Mon day, when Representative Cous ins, or lowa, made a brier speech in connection with the bill to re- ieve the sufferers on the Maine. Mr. Cousins is a comparatively young man, from Iowa, heavily built, tall and straight as an ar row, with a smooth, round face. full of character, jt black hair, and deep set black eyes, undtr darlr overhanging lashes. He is a man who speaks rarely, butwhn he does address the House is al ways sure to command the clos est attention. He has a distinct voice and pronounces his words in tones that are musical, sym pathetic, and rich. His oratorical effort Monday thrilled every member, and held the Congress men on the floor and the crowds in the galleries in absolute si ence for some five of six min utes. His speech was a perfect example of rhythmic English and rivaled in the richness of its imagery and the beauty of its diction any of Ingersoli's most eloquent talks. As Mr. Cousins stood in the midst of his silent audience, speaking slowly, but distinctly, with his voice quivering with emotion, using no gestures, he seemed the emdobiment of an enging Nemesis against Spain. His beautiful tribute to the memory of the men who had ost their lives, his assertions that money could not compensate for the horrors experienced by those who iiyed nor makegood the ives of those who had been lost, his picture of the vultures hov ering above the mysterious Ha vana harbor, while the eagle searched with piercing eye to discern. the truth, led through a series of graphic sentences to his" climax. iHe pictured the peo pie of the United States ready and willing to do their duty,. 3nd hen with dramatic forcefulness. recited a verse from'Rudyard Kipling's 'Recessional," ending with the words; Lord God of Hosts; be with us yet, Lest we forget last we forget. This last refrain was uttered with a solemnity that seemed to be in the nature of a warning, and for fully halt a minute after he had ceased, therej was abso- ute quiet in' the chamber, as though his auditors were stun ned. Then the applause broke forth, and for several minutes it was impossible for the most vig orous pounding of the gavel to still the tempestuous demonstra tion. So stirred was the House over the remarkable address that it is almost reasonable to believe that if a declaration of war against Spain had been immediately of fered, it would have been adopt ed by acclamation. All during the rest of the afternoon members were repeating ta--one another the phrase, "Lest we forget, lest we forget." MR. COUSINS' SPEECH. Mr. Cousins spoke as follows: "Mr. Speaker: Whether this THEiFLUEMCE of the Mother shapes the course of unborn generations goes sounding through all the ages and enters the confines of Eternity. With what care, there fore, should the Expectant Moth er be guarded, and how great the effort be to ward off- danger and make her life joyous and happy.

It is true wisdom for every body to take a thorough course of Swift's Specific just at this season of the year.

No human speech can add anything to the silent gratitude, the speechless reverence already given by a great and grate ful nation to its dead defenders and to their living kin. No act of Congress providing for their needs can make restitution for their sac rifice. Human nature decs, in humr.n ways, its best, and still feels deep in debt.

One of the most successful business enterprises of the pres ent century is that of C- I, Hood & Co , of Lowell, Mass.. propri etors of the famous medicine, Hood's Sarsaparilla. Though having a small beginning in a common drug store, the business has gradually grown in propor lions until the laboratory is now the largest building in the world devoted exclusively to the pros prietary medicine business. The great establishment includes the laboratory proper, where exper ieuced chemists are engaged, in preparing the ingredients for the medicine, the office, printing rooms, bindery, bottling room, shipping room, etc' In the office alone about 60 peo ple are employed and the work here is so systematically arranged that each department carries on its respective part of the busi ness, working in harmony with every other department. The general business of the firm is under one head, subordinate only to Mr. Hood. The advertising manager is chief of a large corps of clerks, accountants, steno graphers, etc., who assist him in caring for the advertising in thousands of newspapers and other periodicals; the advertising Leditor and his assistants are busily employed in preparing copy for firm's publications, and for newspaper advertisements, and in reading editing and filing the reports of cures by Hood's Sarsaparilla that are constantly being received. Another depart ment has charge of the travelling men and the company's relations with the druggists and dealers of the country. Such success as is represented by this great business could haye been possible only with an honest and meritorious article. Mr. C. I. Hood, the proprietor, has always acted upon the principle that honesty is the bast policy, and insisted that whatever the people read about Hood's Sarsa parrilla should "be so." No claim is made for the medicine that is not amply substantiated by what it has actually accom plisbed. It is indeed gratifying to record the prosperity of t business conducted on this prin ciple, and it is not surprising that Hood's Sarsaparilla constantly holds the confidence of the peo pie while hundreds of would-be competitors have sunk into ob livion and will be heard of no more. The is far ahead of all other remedies for this purpose. It is a real blood remedy which promptly purifies the blood and thoroughly renovates the entire system, tones and strengthens the stomach, and renews the appetite. It is the only safe tonic, being purely vege table, and the only blood remedy guaranteed to contain no arsenic, sulphur, mercury, potash or other mineral substance, which is of so much importance to all who know the injurious effects of these drugs.

At Lowell, Massachusetts, a few days agojthere, was a notable gathering of distinguished men and women who met al a great ubilee banquet, the celebration of the 50th birth-day of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. For 50 years this medicine has been a blessing to suffering hu manity; people of all classes and condition know of this wonderful remedy, and the world around the name of Ayer's Sarsaparilla is fa miliar, and its manufacture has come to be looked upon as one of the great American institutions. The 50th anniversary of the cs - tablishment of the J. C. Aycr Company was, therefrom, a fitting occasion for the company to hold its semi-centennial, and inyite to a great banquet the distinguished guests who were present. The history of this house i-; truly wonderful. There is only one reason that can be assigned for its marvelous success and that reason is expressed bv tbe little word merit. Had not Ayer's Sarsaparilla been a most remarka ble medicine, it would long ago have been forgotten. But the pain it has relieved, the cures it has wrought, and the homes that it has made happv have placed it among the great blessings to man Another reason for the lone life and peerless success of Aycr' 9 Sarsaparilla is, that its proprietors have been persistent and liberal advertisers: having a good thing they have had the sagacity to push it along through that best of al mediums printer's ink.
