Address ROCK SPRING NURSERIES.: A MODEL NU RISER If AND TRUCK FARM NEAR WARSAW, Mr. F. Q. Mlddleton. a Well-Known Nur seryman and Trucker, Is Located In the Heart of the Tracking ec tion and Is Winning Fame for Himself and His Products. Very recently a representative of the Argus had occasion to visit Warsp.w and while there drove out in company with Mr. F. G. Mid dleton, to hi home, about three nrles from town on the road to Kenacsville. The trip was made especially to see " his truck and nursery farm, which has given its owner fame throughout the East ern section of North Carolina, where he has scld the product of his nursery, ad also on Northern market?, where his strawberries have sold for fancy prices in com petition with berries from all over the United States. On the morning when the writer made th's visit the farm was seen to advantage. The natural con ditions, with the bright rays of sunshine falling obliquely from an eastern sky on the verdant field?,- while the green foliage of truck and tree was fanned and swayed continuously by the balmy breezes floating in from the south east, perhaps fiom across the broad Atlantic, were all propiti ous conditions, which served to in fuse life into every variety of tree and truck and every bud and flower. The owner of the premises was careful to explain every detail of his nursery, which commences with the planting of tha seed of the uppie, peach, pear, plum and several other kinds of trees. The seed are planted in Febraary gen-. erally and at this time the young trees are from 15 t 18 and 20 in ches high. The grafting process, with which everybody is familiar, s tbe next thing atd then the trees will be ready for transplanting in the fall. One peculiarity about the nur sery business is that a tree which epripgs Hp from seed will not bear the same fruit as the seed . The kind of fruit desired is secured only by the grafting or budding process. While Mr. Middleton docs a big trucking business, stil! he does not give near the attention to this part of his business that he does to his nursery. These ycung trees of the several varieties are his con.- stant care. He watches over tbem from day to day as a mother over her children, and each one of the several thousand receives his per sonal attention.' Perhaps it is this personal painstaking with his nur sery that has crested such a de mand foi his trees. He informed this writer that he intended going out of the business some years ago, but the numerous orders that he received continuously in season, accompanied by such kind ex pressions of appreciation for his work, had induced him to continue the business, and next fall he will have a larger number of trees for delivery than ever before. The ancients believed that rheuma tism was the work of a demon within a man. Any one who has had an attack o sciatic or innamatory rheumatism will agree that the infliction is demon . iac enough to warrant te belief.

College Raleigh Post Some thiftgs which have been said, and more which are dis cussed, m'ght ieave the impress ion that the Agricultural and Me chanical College in this city has been more ornamental thau use fu1; and mislead some to believe that it has not achived the suc cessor attracted to it the patron age of our people that such a institution,, with its excellent equipments, should eDjoy, It gives Tbe Post sincere pleas re to assert that during the ten years of its existence that this college has accomplished very great good for the State in the preparation of its young men for useful vocations In lift; and we are well borne out in this asser tion by the records of the gradu ates of this institution. Colonel Holladay.- who has been its pres. ident since its establishment, and his co-laborers can well point with pride to the results of their labors the number of youg men, fitted at that college, who are en joying the blessings as well as the advantages of the practical education given to them there. Elsewhere we given a compar ative table of the institutions of several states, North and South, which will prove instructive as well as interesting to our readers It will thus be seen that, though the youngest institution ot them all. with the smallest income.and shamefully small compared with some of the others, our college has reached a position fully abreast of the best of them, ttead that table, carefully, ye taxpay ers, and see for yourselves, Our institution was established in 1889. It began with only 73 pupils. The next year; 1890. lt had 87, and then the number each year thereafter as follows: 110, 114, 192, 210, 183, 247, 255, and last scholastic year 257. The year 1895 the numbers as seen, dropped to 193, on account of scare about typhoid fever which prevailed to some extent in West Raleigh. But with that exception and for the cause assigned, every year since the beginning, the col lege has steadily grown in popu lar favor, and as stated above, each year has turned out a set of boys who have entered upon life's duties and labors under auspices and with an equipment they could not have hoped for but for tb.3 opportunity and ad- vantages given by this college.lt is and has been since i:s begin niog a credit to the State a bless ing to our youth in the oppor tunities cStered, aud should be very carefully fostered by thoso in charge of it, Wcodland Crumbs. The cool nights have been hard on cotton. It is growing quite slow. Moore brothers have a floe crop of vegetables, which they will scon place upon the market. Mrs. Ezrkiel Parker, who has been critically ill for some time, is now improving, which is very gratifying to his many' friends. Peas are now off and beans and potatoes are coming in. The flag station at Genoa seems to be well patronized. Trains stop daily. The new sewing establishment at Genoa is doing a good busi ness. We are glad to see our ladies so energetic. Mr. G. H. Grantham, who has been sick for some months is getting out again, and we hope will soon be restored to his usual good health. Mrs. George Bridgers, of Grantham's township, and Mr. W. T. Cox, of your city, were in attendance at Woodland meeting on Sunday last and had good service therein. 1 Reader. Wcofl's Immunes.

At a recent meeting of the Goldsboro R'fles, Co. B., the fol lowing committee was appointed, to be known as (he Goldsboro Rifles' Monumental Committee. I. F. Dortch, Jno. H Hill, D. W. Hurtt, Rev. F.

Immediate steps will be taken to commemorate the memory of the brave boys of the Goldsboro Riflee, who lost their lives during the Spanish-American war. In this connection, and in ref- rence to the regimental assign ment of company B., we have been shown a letter from Col. J. F. Arinfield to a member of the com pany, in which he pays the follow ing high complimet-t to the com pany and its valiant Captain. "lsrmediately upon receipt of your letter I wrote the Adjutant- General urging that your company b3 allowe l to remain in the First Rpgiment, and I hope he will do so, as yours is the last company I would wish to see leave tbe Regi ment: I am certairly glad the men elected Bain Captain. It is an endorsement that he well de serves, and I am just as glad as can be to know that they did so," This is indeed complimentary, and we are sure every citizen of Goldsboro will feel pride in read ing it. CAPTAIN TILLEY Was Slain By the Insurgents While Exhibiting a Flag of Truce. Manila, May 30. General Smith's expedition has found the body of Captain Till?y. He was slain by the insurgents while displaying a flag of truce on the rive at Escalaute near where he was last seen. His head was badly mutilated. His body was brought to Iloilo and buried to day. Aguinaldo is apparently unable to reorgan'za insurrection in Cavile province under the direc tion of Gen. Tolas, who, it is said, recently effdred to surrender to the American forces if promised pardon. The Filipinos under Polas are wholly demoralized and suffering greatly from a scarcity of food. There have been no hostilities for several days. General Lawton has inspected the lines from Caioocan to Pasig, and two small gunboats have sailed to Cebus where it is be lieved they will have a strong influence in keeping order. HUNTING FOR THE NURSE Po ice Believe That When She is L caUd Baby Clark Wi.I Be Found New York.May 29 Mary Carl son is being hunted for by the police, who believe that she is the nurse who under the name of Alice Jones abducted Baby Marion Clark a week ago to-day. Detectives were in Mount Ver-. non .today gathering every pos sible scrap of description and in formation concerning this young woman. Chief Foley ,of the Mount Ver non police force tcday said that he believed, when Mary Carlson was iound, the , missing Clark baby would be. recovered. Looks Bad for the Paris. Coverack, Cornwall, May 29 The ninth attempt to float the American Line steamer Paris was made this evening, and proved'an utter failure. Her bow is absolutely impaled ' by the rocks.. . . . The effect of the strain of last week's attempts is apparent in the increase of water in the en gine room. Efforts to pull her off will now be discontinued; and ' it is proposed to concoct some new plain for lightening the vessel.; - The pertinacity of the attempts to tow the liner has caused con siderable surprise among experts' herevpwing to the impalement of the bow, as her removal by towing must mean, in the ; opin ion of experts, tne tearing t)ff of the -bow.'. 4 : '"O.

The State Board of Medical Examin ers finished their annual exami nations to-day. One hundred and five candidates stocd examina t;ons. The following interesting dis closure was made to-day: A young North Carolinian, who aspired to be a doctor, att' mtid to work a clever ruse on the Me dical Board. Ho was aware he could not stand the examinations, and yet he was determined to get the requisite license. The idea struck him to hire a substitute. With this in view, he wrote to a friend in Baltimore, who is a phy sician, one who stood high in his class. The Baltimore doctor was to come to Asheviile, having as sumed the North Carolina man's name, and pass the examination, get license turn it over ?o the real person in whose Dame it was made out, and receive therefor a goodly sum. The plan all but succeeded. Thanks to watchful eyes of mem bers of the Board, the fraud was detected and scheme upset, after the Baltimore man had taken part of the examination?. Drugs: -JNO. EL.

An Excellent Combination, The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the tvell known remedy, SyEUf of Figs, manufacturer, by the California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate the value of obtaining1 the liquid laxa tive principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting1 them in the form most refreshing1 to the taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxa tive, cleansing the system effectually, dispelling colds, headaches and feyer gently yet promptly and enabling ona to overcome habitual constipation per manently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable quality and sub stance, and its acting on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening or irritating them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs are used, as they are pleasant to the taste, but the medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the California Fig Syrtj Co. only.
