THUE8DAY, JULY BO. 1903 NO 4 .1 : S ' n J 1 t u 4 I f i -I I' AT MORU Gil!. COMPANY D, OF SECOND REG IMENT ENJOYING THEMSELVES. Mr. Claude B. Huggins Writes In terestingly of Camp Rodman and the Doings of the Boyd G eneral ly In Camp. Camp Rodman, Morebead City, N. C, July 27, 1903. E. Robixsox, Golds C. COL. JOS. boro, N, Dear Sin- -This is the writer's first opportunity to let you hear from the Goldsboro soldiers in camp here with the Second North Carolina Infantry. We arrived here on Wednesday night shortly after dark and found camp all ready and supper prepared for us. At reveilles, 5:25 a. m., all must roll out of their tents; next comes roll call, then breakiast, and then . we have morning drill. After the drill, all who are not on special duty are at liberty to leave camp until 4:30 p. m., when there is an hour and a half afternoon drill. Dress pa rade takes place at 6:30 p. m. and al ways draws a crowd of onlookers. We are most pleasantly situated right at the sound and the boys greatly enjoy the fine fishing, bath ing, sailing, etc. Company D, is the pride of the regiment and Bain street (named in j honr of Col. Bain) is the model street j of the camp. That we have the best drilled and the best looking com pany in camp, is not remarkable, as Goldsboro's place is always in the front rank. The behavior of our men has been the cause of much fav orable comment and our record is unblemished. We have not had a single man in the guard house, or had one to anyway make himself liable to punishment. It does one good to see the splen did appetite the men bring to the table, and the meals, under the sup ervision of our efficient carterer, Mr. Taylor, are par excellance. The officers, Capt. Cohen, Lieuten ant's Morgan and Prince, have won the respect of everyone in camp and by their splendid example, they set the men in behavior, sobriety and manner. It is safe to predict that we will all return from camp much wiser than before, having obtained what can be obtained nowhere else except under charge of such efficient officers as ours. The weather has teen ideal, the nights delightfully cool and the days not unpleasantly warm. There was a large delegation of Goldsboro people here Sunday, who received a hearty welcome from all our boys. With sincere regards to you and wishing the Abgus (which is hailed with delight here every day the boys fighting for it) every success, -I am, respectfully yours, i " C, B. Huggins, 1st Serg't Co. D.

Last Saturday night Mrs. Hedgpeth, a widow of this town, was awakened just before day. She detected that her lamp had been put out and struck a match, whereupon she saw a big black negro standing by her bed with his hand on the door knob. The plucky little woman jumped up with a pistol in one hand and caught him in the collar with the other and tried to shoot him, but her pistol failed to fire. After she found that her pistol would not fire she proceed ed to beat him over the head with it. The negro broke out through the door, but she held on to him and continued to beat him. In the scuffle she pulled off his coat and broke his suspenders. He finally broke away from her and told her if she did not give him his coat back hs would kill her. She told him she would not do it, he would have to kill. By this time the neighbors had been aroused and went to render assist ance, but tne negro nea. Some one recognized the coat as that of John Coppedge. Deputy Sheriff Warren was notified. He hastened to Coppedge' s house and found him. When he started away he told Coppedge to get his coat and shoe, but he could not find them. He was carried back to Mrs. Hedg peth's. She recognized him as the one in her house. His head was al so bleeding where she had pounded him with the pistol. Mrs. Hedgpeth is a delicate look ing little woman and in meager cir cumstances.

Among the important additions made to medical science in recent years, none is more notable than the positive announcement of a cure for hay fever. While this disease is not regarded as fatal, it is certainly a most dis tressing malady, and if anything can be devised to cure it, a great boon will be conferred upon the human race. Exhaustive experiments with Hy omei prove that this treatment will prevent all attacks of hay fever if used two or three weeks before the annual appearance of the disease and that it may be relied upon if used faithfully after the disease has be gun, to relieve at once and afford a speedy cure. J. H. Hill & Son have sold hun dreds of Hyomei outfits for the treat ment ot diseases of the respiratory organs under the agreement to re fund the money if Hyomei did not afford relief. In sellinar Ilvomei for the cure of hay fever, they will continue this eqitable plan, and want all who are subject to this distressing malady to begin its use at ouce, with the un derstanding that if it does not give satisfaction, the purchase price is to be refunded. Stomach dosing cannot cure hay fever. A change of climate is tne nnlv troatment that has heretofore aborted an attack, and Hyomei, irh is breathed through a neat pocket inhaler coming with every outfit, acts upon this principle, giv ing in your own home a climate like that of the White Mountains or other health resorts.

Ill Or 1 mo. a ITEMS OF INTEREST FROM DIVERS SOURCES. The Latest Telegraphic News of the ! Day Boiled Down to a Focus For Busy Readers. General Miles is affected with old age, and General Young very natur ally takes his place. One of the rascals in the rake-off department at Washington has actu ally been indicted. It is taking an unfair advantage of a Russian to ask him to pronounce his name when he has been drink ing. Is it natural for one who burns the candle at both ends to make light of his condition. You can't tell from the patches on a man's pants whether he is honest or indolent. A woman's vengeance is deep who is not appeased by the sight of her enemy in an unbecoming bonnet. It is said the Newport "smait set" will employ jesters of the ancient "king's fool" sort to amuse them. Harry Lehr ought to suffice, and his antics are all paid for by Mrs. Lehr. It develops that Daniel J. Kelley bought nine successive legislatures in Missouri. If the man were to sur render and turn state's evidence, what a dearth of politicians there would be in old Misery. There are 151 retired generals drawing their pay with unctuous regularity from the national treasury, and only one retired president of the United States, whocontrives to worry along without a pension.

By order of the chief procurator of the holy synod, the bishop of Kishineff has instructed the clergy of his diocese to exert their influence on the mem bers of the orthodox church, by ser mons in their churches and personal admonition, to allay the anti-semi tic religious hatred. A body of armed men in Madison county drove out of their county a company of negroes who were work ing for a telephone company. The average Republican majority in Madison county is one thousand.

A dispatch from Ardmore, Pa., to The Philadelphia Record relates that Michael Costello, of that place, got grass seed in his eye while pushing a lawn mower, and in consequence of the seed sprouting will lose hi3 eye sight.
