BMDLEY'S TRIAL WEDNESDAY, No Murder Case in Years Has Excited Such Deep Interest. Be Dragging In Of The Name of Mrs. J Annie Adams, Mother of Maude Adams, the Actress, Has Also Whetted the Pub lic Appetite for Fur ther Details of the Case. ''('By Special Wire to the Argus.) c Washington, D. C, Nov. 11. Crimi nal Court No. 1 of the District of Co- iumbia was filled to overflowing with -spectators, among whom were numer ous women, when Justice Stafford took his seat on the bench this morn ing and the bailiff rapped for order. The presence of the crowd of idle on lookers was due to the fact that the first case on docket was that of Mrs. Annie M. Bradley .whose trial for mur der, in connection with the death of former Senator Arthur M. Brown, of Utah, last December, will undoubtedly be the staple of conversation in Wash ington for some weeks to come. An eminent array of counsel for both sides were on hand ready to proceed with the famous case. Judge Powers, of Utah, appeared as principal counsel for the defense, assisted by Atto-ney George B. Hoover of this city. Assist ant District Attorney Givens, with sev eral assistants, was on hand to conduct the prosecution. But on opening court, it was announced that owing to the death of Judge McComas, court would take a recess until Wednesday, when the Bradley trial will begin. No murder case here in years, none, in fact, since the famous murder trial of Mrs. Beaunisne nearly a decade ago, has excited such deep interest as has been excited in the trial that has now commenced. The wealth and promi nence of the 'victim and the double ro mance of his life are responsible in a large measure for the public interest in the case. The dragging in of the name of Mrs. Annie Adams, mother of Maude Adams, the actress, has also whetted the public appetite for further details - in the case. Mrs. Adams is expected to be one of the principal witnesses. She has told friends that she was anx ious to testify, if for no other reason than to clear the name of the dead Sen ator, to whom it is said she was en gaged. She admitted as much when . she came here to see the body of the Senator after the tragedy, "before it was taken West by his children for bnrial. It is said that Mrs. Bradley first learn ed of the engagement between the Sen ator and Mrs. Adams a few days before the killing. It is now nearly a year since the tragedy occurred in the i Hotel Raleigh, where the Senator was shot in his apartments by ' Mrs. Bradley after a stormy interview. At the Emergency Hospital, where he lingered between life and death for several days, Senator Brown steadfastly refused to talk and refused all the importunities of the police to make a statement of the af fair. Mrs. Bradley claims to have found letters in Senator Brown's apartments showing that he had an appointment to meet Mrs. Adams in New York. Whether this entered as a motive in the tragedy will not be known until the evidence is brought out at 'the trial, al though at the time of the murder Mrs. Adams expressed "deep sympathy for Mrs. Bradley, and declared that if only she could have met her before the tragedy she might have helped to pre vent it. Army Officers Who Failed To Take The Test Ride Now On Anxious Seat. (Special to The' Argus. ) Washington, D. C, Nov. 12. Twelve army officers, a part of the total num ber who failed to take the test ride re cently prescribed by the President, were summoned before a retiring board at Washington barracks today to un dergo an examination to determine their fitness to continue to discharge the military duties they at present per form. Because of the sweeping effect of 'the alleged determination of the President to restrict the active list of the army to officers of sound and vig orous constitutions there is naturally considerable apprehension on the part of a large number of officers, who, while fully able to attend to their rou tine duties under existing conditions, are conscious of their inability to stand the rigors of prolonged service in the field, even in time of peace. It is not generally believed.however, that the President intends to make any wholesale retirements. The under standing at the War Department is that if an officer is physically able to discharge the duties upon which he at roresent is engaged he will be retained in the service, although be may be un able physically to ride a hprse fifteen miles over a battlefield. It is freely declared that onlya very small propor tion of high ranking officers line and staff could pass the mildest kind of a physical examination. Among the officers of high rank in poor health holding responsible positions with credit are Major General Bell, chief of staff; Major General Ainsworth, adju tant general, and Major General Wes ton, who is to succeed Gen. Wood in command of the troops in the Philip pines. They are generally recognized as among the ablest and most efficient officers in the army, but it is question able if any one of the three could with stand the hardships of a real campaign. Noted Baker Dead. (Special to The Argus.) Raleigh, Nov. 11. Charles Bretch, Raleigh's leading baker, and a well known citizen, is dead from an attack of heart trouble.

This will be a list of all the pupils in the school who have made an average for the entire month of 95 per cent.or over, on all studies and including attendance and deportment; provided that no pupil who makes bi low 90 per cent on any study, attend ance or deportment shall have a place on the Honor Roll. A high average has been required so that a place on this roll will be an honor, indeed, lor the pupil who wins it. . It has been, thought wise to do this. in as much as wherever it has been tried it has stimulated the pupils to greater effort, better deportment, and more regular and punctual attendance all of which are indispensable to a godd school system. The parents are requested to encourage the ' pupils to try for the Honor Roll, and thus aid the teachers in making the school bet' ter. The following are' the names of the pupils who made the required average during the month of October: Tenth Grade Law rence Morgan. Seventh Grade A Julia Allen, Re becca Green.

(By special wire to The Argus.) Paris, Nov. 12. The progress made in the manufacture of motor-propelled vehicles in France during the past year is comprehensively disylayed at the tenth Annual show of the Automo bile Club de France, which opened to day in the Grand Palais.

It will continue to at tract the public during the remainder ef this month. BEST OF PROOF That Hyomei will Cure Ail Forms of Ca tarrhal Diseases. Testimonials should be printed by the thousands, many of them from Goldsboro and nearby towns, that Hyomei is an absolute cure for all catharrhal troubles, and the best proox of its unusual curative powers is the guarantee that J. H. Hill & Son give with every outfit they sell. "Money back if Hyomei does not do all that is claimed for it." " Hyomei is not a secret remedy. Its formula is given freely to physicians who want to know what they use when they prescribe Hyomei. It is guaran teed under the Pure Food and Drug Law by serial No. 1418. By breathing Hyomei, the healing medication goes directly to every nook and corner of the air passages where the catarrhal germs may lurk, and dis infects and heals. To be convinced of this you have only to give it a trial, re membering that if it does net cure, J. H. Hill & Sen will refund your money. The complete Hyomei outfit costs but 1.00, and in most cases is sufficient to cure the diseases, making it not only a scientific treatment but one that is highly economical. Get an outfit to day from J. H. Hill fc Son if you have any catarrh. OR. E. C. VITOU, DENTIST. Phone 880- Goldsboro, N. O ' .... , '' TO "UNCLE BEN." Mount Olive Tribune. The world moves on and mid the busy needs Of traffic and its maddening grasp for life, The individual motives, aims and deeds Lie hidden 'neath the turmoil and the strife. So Uncle Ben, the sham of worldly fame May never seek to sound your plaud its loud. Tour greatness lies not in the world's acclaim, 'Twas richer things with which you were endowed. The painter's brush may ne'er your visage trace, Nor history's page record your past career. Yourifriends,too;may forget your kind ly face, Who on your grave have sadly drop ped a tear. Too soon those little deeds of kindness told, Too soon those little loving thoughts conceived Will fade from mortal memory's fickle holdi And mortal man forget what you've aohieved. But beams of sunshine sent from your pure mind Are painted on the canvass of our souls, And records greater than historian's pen Can trace to God's all seeing eye un fold. Why care you aught for any earthly praise? Why deem of note friend's forgetful care? Your work is done. Angelic voices raise Their songs of welcome mid Heaven's treasures rare. JOHN D. LANGSTON.

(Special to the Argus.) , Guthrie Oklahoma, Nov. 12. The new State's first Governor-elect, Has kell, Democrat, gives notice that he will not ride in the carriage with or on horseback in company with the retir ing Republican Territorial Governor, Frantz. It is' therefore, more than probable that Haskell will walk in the proces sion on his inaugural day, next Satur day, with the members of the legislature. The Jim crow law, too, goes into ef fect in Oklahoma on Saturday, and at the big popular barbecue on inaugura tion day it has been decided to separ ate the races, the negroes being made to wait for "Second Table."

That is What Is Thought Is the Pur pose of the Administration. iSpecial to the Argus. Brooklyn, N. Y., Nov. 12 From in formation learned through a careful in quiry made among the officers of the battleships atfthe Brooklyn navy that are to form the Pacific fleet soon to sail, it is learned that there is no doubt but that the real purpose of the Wash ington administration is to maintain a permanent naval fleet in Pacific and Asiatic waters. December 9th is still the date fixed for the mobilization of the warships in Hampton roads, wherei President Roosevelt will review them, and, just before their starting for the Pacific will deliver to Admiral Evans his final in structions, which it is J 'believed will contain some very important informa tion that has not been given out to the public. Serious Symtoms. Mrs. Annie Hamilton, Stetsonville, Wis., developed serious symptoms, as a result of some form of female trouble from which she suffered. A letter.in which she describes these symptoms and tells how.byjthe Cardui System of Home Treatment, she final ly managed to cure herself, may prove of value to you, if you are (suffering as she did, from ailments peculiar to wo men. She says: "When I was suffering from female trouble, I couldfnot sleep, eat, or stand on my feet without pain. I could not work, andj could not stoop on account of pain in my side. I took medicine from three I doctors without benefit, and the last oneMsaid I was in a critical condition, andigoing down hill. At last I took iCardui and in two days time I was a different woman. Now I eat good, work good, and feel better than I ever did in all my life. Cardui is a good medicine and it all poor sick ladies knewjof it there would be less suffering."
