The Two Men Appear in the Strong est Contrast Remarkable De monstration In Honor of the Ex-President. St. Louis, Mo., April 30. The ded ication of the St. Louis Exposition was a great success, being inaugurat ed with a magnificent military dis play and elaborate exercises at which President Roosevelt and ex-President Cleveland were the principal speakers. Undoubtedly the feature of the day was the splendid reception accorded ex-President Cleveland who received the plaudit3 of the tens of thousands of people along the line of march. His reception in the Liberal Arts building when he arose to speak equalled, if it did not exceed, that of the president. Certainly the atten tion that he received was the best of the day. President Roosevelt also received a fine demonstration, but it was noisy, and during his speech a number of people created some em barrassment by continual yells of "Sit down." The splendor and magnificence of the dedicatory exercises caught the fancy of the immense throng, but there is a political aspect of to-day's events that is the principal subject of talk to-night in the hotel lobbies, which are thronged with hundreds of men prominent in the nation, sen ators, congressmen and governors be ing included in the number. .This talk begins with the splendid recep tion accorded G rover Cleveland through southern Illinois and Indi ana, which have been considered Bryan strongholds. Evidence of this popular favor in which the ex-president is held was made more apparent to-day. "While politicians are discuss ing these facts they do not pretend to say that he is a candidate for the presidency. They rather think that he is not. They do not even say that these demonstrations can be inter preted to mean that hi3 nomination is desired. They argue, however, 1 that one lesson is to be observed, and that is that the Democratic masses are dissatisfied with the present lead er ship and that a change is desired. That change, they contend, is unmis takably from Bryan towards Cleve land, Gorman or Parker. Never was the contract in the char acter ol two men more impressively demonstrated than to-day.

Ranks Among the Ablest of the State's Superior Court Judges. It is with great pleasure and grati fication that we copy the following comprehensive and accurate estimate of our learned townsman and esteemed friend Judge W. R. Allen from the Public Ledger, of Oxford, the home of Judge Allen's mother and therefore this high compliment must be the more gratifying to him, who has always been noted for his filial devotion: "We have knowTn but few judges who, in our opinion, were so well equipped for the high position as Judge Wm. R. Allen, who has held the last two terms of Granville Su perior Court. In thte opinion we be lieve both the people and the bar concur, as he is very popular with both. He has a well-balanced legal mind. His thoughts and expressions are never "muddy." His mind is strong,, clear and coherent. His dic tion is finished and yet plain, so that everybody understands him. He never tries to make a show of his learning, but always goes straight to the mark, which is true, we think, of the really good jurists. He has a mind of his own because he knows the law. While on the bench he seldom refers to the books, but seems to have the law at ready command from memory. The editor was especially impressed with his charge to the grand jury. Every sen tence of it was clear and impressive and could not possibly be misunder stood, and yet there was no needless : repetition. His charges to the petit jury were comprehensive and cover- ' ed every point ol the evidence and were made without the use of notes. To both sides he was eminently fair, as all the attorneys of our bar will agree. ! His demeanor on the bench is al ways dignified and becoming. "While never severe, he maintains the best of order in his court. He does not j have to ask for order, but commands the respect which always secures it. Perhaps his strongest quality is that he thinks for himsel and allows j no influence to swerve him from the ' course of justice. While this is true ' he is never unkind or harsh to attor neys or others, but is glad to give them all a patient hearing. He is sympathetic, but at the same time believes that crime must be pun ished. Judge Allen has a number of rela tives in Granville, this county being the home of his mother, and also a large host of friends and admirers. He will return to this county again to hold court just before his term of office expiees. We shall ever enter tain for him the highest esteem and respect, as will the t ar here and the good "people of Granville county. With his high --harCter and splendid i equipment we believe that the future j hoids in store lor him still greater honors, and in our opinion he will adorn the Supreme Court bench. In what we have said of our dis tinguished friend of the county of our birth we have not aimed to be fulsome in our praise of him. We have only tried to express our honest opinion. ROOSEVELT TO DEWEY. Sends Congratulations to Admiral George Dewey. Washington, May 4. -The navy department to-day made public a telegram sent by President Roose velt to Admiral Dewey, May 1, as follows: Topeka, Kan., May 1. Admiral George Dewey, Washing ton, D. C. On this anniversay of your great service to the nation, I wish you all posible happiness and a long life. Theodore Roosevelt. CAUSE OF SMALLPOX. It Is Attributed to the Micro-Organism Representative of the Lowest Form of An imal Life. Boston, April 28. The announce ment of the discovery of the cause of smallpox was made to-night by Dr. William Councilman, professor of pathology in the Harvard Medical School, at a meeting of the Boston Society of Medical Science. The an nouncement is the outcome of the in vestigations conducted by Dr. Coun cilman, Dr. George Burgess Mc Grath and Dr. Walter Ramsen Brinckerhoff, the co-operation of the Boston board of health during the recent epidemic of the disease in this city. , It has been determined that smallpox is caused by the micro-organism representative of the lowest form of animal life. This fact serves to show a relation between smallpox and such diseases as malaria and to diotinguish it from any other infectious diseases caused by bacteria. SUDDEN DEATH. Mrs. S. E. White Died Suddenly in a Bath Room. Concord, N. C, April 30. Mrs. S. E. White, daughter of the late Mr. R. W. Allison, and sister of Senator J. P. Allison and Mrs. J. M. Odell, has died at Fort Null. She seemed in perfect health and was on the piazza talking to her husband, Capt. S. E. White. She got up, walked i into the bath room aud fell, her death being almost immediate.

In the third trial of James Howard for the killing of Governor William Goebel over three years ago, the prisoner was found guilty. The jury could not agree at first and Judge Cantrill &;nt them back with instructions to stay until they did agree. Half an hour later the jury came in with a verdict, of murder and fix ed the punishment at life iuipison ment. Death was favored by all but juror Burkes, who announced that he would under no circumstances vote for the death penalty, and a verdict for life sentence was agreed upon. NATURE'sToWN CURE. Hyomei Cures Catarrh Without Dangerous Drugging of the Stomach. Not until Hyomei was discovered has it been possible to truthfully say that a remedy for ca arrh wTas known. , This remedy is breathed through the Hyomei inhaler for a few min- I utes four times a day, and during i that time every particle of air taken I into the air passages and lungs is im pregnated with the germ killing and i health giving Hyomei. It is the i only treatment that cures catarrh. otomacn-mrugging oiten causes disordered digestion or brings on some other diseases and never makes a permanent cure of catarrh. Hy omei not only kills the germs in the throat and nose but penetrates to the minutest air cells in the lungs and enters the blood with the oxygen, killing the. germs in the blood. It frees the mucous membrane from poisonous microbes and gives periect health. A complete outfit costs but $1.00, and includes an inhaler, dropper and sufficient Hyomei for several weeks treatment.

Hallman Sims to-day plead guilty to the em bezzlement of $94,000 of the funds of the Capital City National Bank and was sentenced to six years in the Federal prison. Sims was collection clerk of the bank, and was for some time a prominent figure in the social world of Atlanta. The plucky fellow who has the 'lut v, . courage to face the chances ana rely ; upon his own judgment is very apt to succeed in the long run. He it is that bocomes a leader and gains a reputation for enterprise. Extreme timidity never succeeded in business. Results are what count these days, and the world cannot help admiring j the man who has done something. It is an age of hero worshipers af er all. : Mr. Bryan's frequent and vicious attacks5 upon Mr. Cleveland have by no means injured the latter in the I public estimation. On the contrary, they have only weakened Mr. Bryan : himself. Thtse attacks have pro attacks duced a widespread impression that the Nebraskan has taken his own de feats with a poor grace, and has de veloped a decidedly vindictive spirit. On the other hand Mr. Cleveland's treatment of Mr. Bryan's thrusts at him have been generally approved, and have raised him in the public estimation. They are two entirely different stamps of man. Brunswick, Ga., April 30. The cornerstone of the ten million dollar steel plant of the Mohawk Steel and Wire Company was laid here to-day with appropriate exercises. Thous ands of people gathered on the site to hear the addresses and participate in the ceremonies. Former Senator John L. McLaurin of South Carolina, was the principal speaker, Congress man W. C. Brantley, Colonel E. C. Machin, President Umsted of the Mohawk Company, and Mayor Craw ford also spoke. The occasion marks the beginning of one of the biggest enterprises ever launched in the South. ' It is, indeed, time the Democratic party was doing some good, solid thinking for itself. It is hoped that its past experiences will point out the importance of this, and that the party will not permit itself again to be intoxicated by a spurt of eloquence with catch-phrases and dazzling word pictures. There is no need for a boss. There has already been too much bossism. A sound, conserva tive leader with a heart full of pa triotism is what is needed. It is a hard job to reform the fool family. It is so large and varied, if not very influential. And it is con stantly growing. But when we come to think ai-out it, people are so often called fools when they differ with the one sitting in judgment. In the average case the man who cannot make the other fellow agree with him thinks he is a fool. We once heard a man define a crank as a name given to a man by fools who did not understand him. Richmond, Va., April 29. The capitol building, which collapsed thirty-three years ago, is believed to be in a dangerous condition. On the upper floor, on which are the offices of tiie governor and secretary of the commonwealth, a crack three-quarters of an inch wide appeared to-day. The capitol commission, which has been empowered to expend $100,000 for repairs, has been called to meet Friday. Members of the House are considerably worked up over the matter. TWO HARD CASES. A Man and His Wife Found Guilty of Selling Whiskey. Deputy Marshal P. A. Mitchell, ! of Raleigh, was in the city Friday j with several convicts who were sen- tenced by Judge Purnell at the Fed eral Court in Newbern last week. Among the prisoners was an old one-legged man named Joe Harrison, who was being taken to the Federal prison at Ailanta, Ga. He had been sent to Federal prisons twice before for selling whiskey without license in Beaufort county. His wife and two small children were here with him to-day and the group made a picture that was not pleasant to con template. The wife was also sentenced to 13 months in the Nashville, Tenn., Federal prison, but on account of her condition Judge Purnell suspended iudgment and the good people of ,0.vh.orn contributed the money to pay the cost and to pay her way back home. She was going along with Deputy Marshal J. A. Potter, who.was tak ing two other white men to the county jail in Washington and one negro to Greenville. The saddest part of the scene came when old man Harrison hobbled out to the train with his baby in his arms to tell his family good-bye, perhaps for the last time, as he will probably not live to complete his sentence $10O Dr. i:.
