"I want people to know that I believe the most valuable cod liver oil preparation, the bes body - builder, health - restorer and strength-creator known medicine today is Vinol. "I advise Vinol in my practice and find it has no equal for heal ing coughs, colds, bronchial troubles and sore lungs. "I have used Vinol in many cases of indigestion, mal-assimi-lation, and for patients who have no appetite, were anaemic and run down, with splendid results. I have also found Vinol to be a boon to the aged. "I believe Vinol to be well worthy of any honest physician's endorsement. J. h.. bnnis, M. D.

The Dixie Amusement Co. play ed to good houses at the opera house Thursday and Friday even ings. The crowd Saturday even ing was not so large. And the crowds were delighted, on the whole. Mr. Jno. A. Poythress, under whose management the company was, has brought shows to Lumberton several times be fore and he always shows to good houses and makes good. This time he had added to his moving picture Bhow two singing and dancing kids that are all right and a lightning sketch artist who is ditto. Percival and Shields, the kids, delighted the audience with their singing and dancing stunts, and the way Mr. Jas. Pathe would paint a picture right before the eyes of the audience in less than no time was a caution. Those who got the lucky numbers were given one of the pictures, so several of them were left in town. Mr. Poythress says that it is his purpose to visit Lumberton every two or three weeks with a good show and he will doubtless be given a good audience when ever he comes. The next attraction at the opera house will be Victor's Royal Venetian Band. This is booked or Thursday evening and it will doubtless be one of the best at tractions that will appear in Lum. berton this season. Several Lum. berton people have heard this band elsewhere and they say it is excellent and that a treat is in store for all who attend the con cert Thursday evening. The band consists of twenty-two perfor V 1 1 i . i mers, Desiaes tne director and a ady vocalist. Nearly all the members of the band are said to be excellent soloists on their respective instrumentsand a nun ber of compositions will be pro grammed to enablethemtodemon strate their ability as solo artists, i They have a repertoire of 450 popular and classical selections from which to select programmes to suit any audience. Reserved seats for this attraction were placed on sale this morning at McMillan's Drugstore. The price will be: reserved seats, $1.00, general admission, 75 cents, gal- ery, 50 cents. Thenew opera chairs have been placed in the opera house, the other improvements recently mentioned in The Robesonian have been completed, and it is now possible to seat an audience conveniently and comfortably. Messrs. French and McAllister have gone to considerable expense to make the opera house safe and comfortable and it is to be hoped that they will be given liberal patronage. They have booked some good attractions for the fall and spring. The shows last week were all right, for the price and they were well patron ized, and if good attractions are secured the patronage will be given. FACTS ABOUT TION. REGISTRA- The Mclver Memorial Fund. Miss Etta Spier, of Goldsboro, field secretary of the Alumnae Association of the State Normal and Industrial College at Greens boro, spent Tuesday in Lumber- ton in the interest of the Mclver Memorial Fund. The object of the Alumnae Association is to let the memorial to Dr. Mclver take the form which it is felt would be most acceptable to him, that is, a fund that will enable girls who have not the means of pro curing an education otherwise to borrow money on their personal notes, interest on these notes to begin only after they shall have begun teaching. An effort is being made to get each county to raise a fund for the education of its own girls. More girls ap ply to the college every year for the positions which enable them to work their way than there are positions to be filled. Miss Spier has already organized several county associations and the object of her visit here was to organize the alumnae of Robeson. She ad dressed a few who were interest ed in the work in the auditorium of the graded school building Tuesday evening, but owing to the fact that her coming had not been well advertised not many were present and no effort was made to organize an association. She went Wednesday to Maxton About the middle of this month, or at the time when Things Every Voter Should Know About Qualifying for Voting Book Open Until the 24th Inst. Chairman Geo. B. McLeod calls attention to the following facts about registration, facts every voter should know. 1. No new registration is required. All persons who were registered in the last election can vote now without registering again. However, minors becom ing of age must register, and persons who have moved their residence must register if they moved from the precinct in which they were registered more than four months before the election, otherwise they vote in the pre cinct in which they are register ed. 2. No person liable for poll tax can vote in this election un less he has paid his poll tax by May 1st of this year, and he must exhibit his receipts or take the oath required of him before vot ing. 3. The residence of a married man is where his family lesides; of a single man, where he sleepe . 4. A voter must be able to read and write any section of the constitution in the English lan guage to the satisfaction of the registrar A lineal descendant of any person who could vote on January 1, 1867, or prior thereto, can register, even though he can not read and write. He must, however, register underthegrand father clause. This is the last election in which those who can not read and write can register under the grandfather clause, as the constitution of this State limits the time to December 1, 1908. 5. The clerk of the Superior Court has in his keeping the permanent roll of all persons who have registered under the grand father clause, and it is highly important that every man in the county who cannot read and write ascertain if his name appears upon the permanent roll in the clerk's office. It is also very important that the voter under the grand father clause obtain a certificate of permanent registration. This is given by the registrar and it ought to be certified to by the clerk of the Superior Court. 6. lheregistration booksopen- ed October 1st, and will close at sunset on October 24th. No regis tration will be allowed on the day of election unless a person shall become twenty-one years old after the closing of the regis tration books. 7. Registrars will keep the registration books open at the voting place at the several pre cincts on each Saturday during this period until the evening of October 24. 8. On any other day except Saturday all persons desiring to register' must go to the registrar at his home or his place of busi ness. On Saturday, as before stated, he will be at the voting precincts from nine o'clock in the morning until sunset. G. B. McLeod, Chairman County Democratic Executive Committee.

War Clouds in the East Imme diate Conflict Feared. London Dispatch, 4th, Events which threaten to change the political face of Europe are crystallizing witn ngntning rapidity. Almost over night the horizon of the Near East, which seemed gradually to be assuming a peaceful appearance, has be come crowded with war clouds. News has reached here from several sources that two definite strokes are impending which can not fail to bring matters to a crisis, and perhaps force an im mediate war. One is the procla mation by Prince Ferdinand, of the independence of Bulgaria, which will include Rumelia, tak ing for himself the title of CJzar. The other is an an nouncement of Austna-Hugary of the practical annexation of the provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovnia as appendages of the Austro-Hungarian crown. Either action will be equiva' lent to the leasing up of the treaty of Berlin, while Prince Ferdinand's course seems almost certain to precipitate a war be the next tween Bulgariaand Turkey.
