X - 1 IV JAPANESE SPIES. THAT NEW F ANGLED HOOK. EU ! . i ' -"V V4- '.I S - -4 rr, . There are few men "with souls so dead" that they will not, in times of stress, sacrifice their lives upon the altars of patriotism. Out of the bloody travail of boisterous war great deeds of heroism are born. Many men die, gaining honor thereby and fame. A greater, more uncommon kind of courage is that which the spy must have. He who dies silently sans applause, without notice, -and reaps a kind of glorious infamy, a species of dishonor. The Japanese have developed and rely upon a system of espionage which has had, so far as we know, no counterpart among other nations and in other eras: For the love of their land, many thousands, in the last decade, have left that land for ever; expatriated themselves and taken up their residences in Man churia. Married tc native women, obeying the laws of the alien, eat in" daily the bread and meat of blood enemies, worshippingrgat the shrines of hated gods, working Jin darkness, not recognized by the ones they serve they sacrifice not only life, but any hope of fame and re membrance. They even, according to their beliefs, run the risk of send ing their souls to strange hells be cause of their desertion of the altars of their fathers. And they become the progenitors of a race of half-breed progeny who shall be the enemies of the Japan for which the fathers sacrificed all. The Japanese theoi'y of patriotism does not ask the patriot to endanger his life for the public weal. It points out that it is duty to abolish himself utterly for the good of country, upon necessity. And, when one of these spies is caught, we may imagine that Russians make short shrift of the hanging operation?; thus there is lit tle mercy expected on the one hand or given on the other. Before the first naval battle at Port Arthur, it is related that Jap anese officers disguised as waiters, chambermaids, and even in the rag ged, dirt-begrimed garb of coolies, serving in hotels, restaurants, in the househoids,and even working on fortifications, gathered the most minute details of the Russian's plans, and learned'the signals which en abled the Japanese torpedo boats to enter the harbor and attack the en emy unawares. These outcast, sneaking, disgraced accomplices of glory a curious fate and a curious courage is theirs! MONTH'S TRIAL FREE. Breathe Hyomei Three Or Four Times Daily and Be Cured Of Catarrh. J. H. Hill & Son, one of the most reliable business firms in Goldsboro, has seen many instances of the re markable power of Hyomei to cure catarrhal troubles and other disorders or the respiratory organs. .-..Results in this treatment have it. giyen them so much confidence in Xlyomei that they will give a month's trial with the positive understanding tbjat if at the end of that time a cure is not effected or enough relief gained to warrant a continued use of the treatment for a while longer, the money will be refunded. Hyomei is the only treatment for catarrh that has ever been sold un der a "no cure, no pay" plan, and the only one where a month's trial treatment is free unless it cure3. Hyomei is not a pill or a liquid. Jqst breathe it through the neat in haler that comes with every outfit, and benefit will be seen from the first day's use. Breathed in this way, the health-giving Hyomei pen etrates to the minutest air cells of the luiis, and drives catarrhal germs aud poison from the system. The complete outfit costs but $1, and extra bottles of Hyomei may be obtained for 50e. Rem,?gnfoer that if Hyomei dots not cure you after a month's trial, J II.

Larry Bass Gives Ilib Views on the New Spring Fishing Hook. What It Will Do For Those Who Use It. Speaking, this morninsr, to the Argus man about that double spring fishing hook mentioned in yester day's Argus as recently discovered in his travels by Mr. W. E. Jenkins, Maj. Larry Bass, the oracle on fish ing, aud who has every variety of tackle ever invented for angling, and is himself the veteran and most successful fisherman of the vicinity, said he has tried the double spring hook and he pronounces it a failure. ( He says it will hook a log, stump ! or other obstruction it may chance to touch as readily as it will a fish and oftener. "And when it takes holt of a log or stump," says the Major, which it will do nine times to catch ing a fish once, the only way to re gain your hook or save your line is to 'shuck off' and dive in nojmat ter how cold the water or deep: there ainc any other way to do it; just get out of your clothes, take holdof the line, hold your breath and dive in and follow it till you find the hook, unfasten it and come up and keep this up just as long as you fish with that new-fangled hook. That's how I caught the rheumatism." "No," continued the Major, with a kind of retrospective expression of the eye and meditative countenance, you don't need any law to protect the fish from that hook. What you do need is a law to protect religion against it. A law against the use of that spring hook would keep more folks from "cussing" than prohibi tion does fiom drinking. I know what I'm talking about, and if "Jinks" and brother Huggins go fishingwith that double back-action spring hook, the preacher had better go along with them surej OUP tomacfiL No appetite, loss of strength, nervous oess. headache, constipation, bad breath, general debility, sour risings, and catarrh of the stomach are all due to indigestion.

Columbia has shut up her legation in Washington, and determined not to play in our back yard for a good, long time. Which is to say, that while she insists on the right to pout for a space, she has given up the idea of going to war. Colombia's connection with the canal thus closes with her determina tion to sulk for a while, but to do nothing more dangerous. Canal ope rations may now proceed without any further reference to her. And, while we are very glad she did not force the United States to kill anyCo lombians over the matter, and a lit tle sorry things fell out so that she is in a bad humor, we can scarcely feel any great deal of sympathy for a gang of politicians who lost what they lost through acting the part of the pig. Colombia made her mistake in trying to obstrttct the progress of an engineering feat of prime importance to the whole world; and was gently but firmly nudged out of the way. And when she gets over her fit of the sulks, decides to dry her weeping eyes and be a good child a ain, she will find Uncle Sam just as good a friend and just as ready to throw a corner of the Monroe Docti inerver her in time of need as before.
