Vera Cruz, May 11. From Mexico City come late reports of quiet business conditions but of large numbers of men and boys drilling in the streets. A few nights ago a mob gathered before the Brazilian Legations and de manded thatJLuis D'Antin, an at tache of the American Embassy, who had taken refuge there, be delivered over. Threats were made to kill him. The Brazilian Minister notified the State Department and added that he would only surrender D'Antin if he were overpowered by the mob. The antipathy to the attache is due to the fact that he is the only American official left injthe capital and because of his aotivity in relieving the dis tress of American non-combatants. So far as is known no measures have been taken to fortify the capital . At Guadalupe, which is an important point on the Mex ican Railway entering the city, there are no signs of fortifications The Federals, however, are taking steps to provision Puebla, about midway between vera Cruz and the capital on the lines of the In teroceanio Railroad. COUGH TWO YEARS OLD Yields to VinoL Read Why, Strong vigorous men and women hardly ever catch cold; it's only when the system in run down and vitality low that colda and coughs get a foot bold. Now Isn't it reasonable that the right way to cure a cough is to build up your run down condition again? Mrs. D. A. McGee of Waycross, Ga., says: "I bad a chronic cold and cough which kept me awake nights for two years and I felt tired all the time. Vlnol cured my cough and I feel stronger In every way." The reason Vinol is so efficacious In such cases is because it contains in a delicious concentrated form all the medicinal curative elements of cod liver oil, with tonic, blood build ing iron added. Chronic coughs and colds yield to Vinol because it builds up the weak ened, run-down, system. You can get your money back any time if Vinol does not do all we say. - P. S.

Last Saturday when the hands on the clock indicated noon, the voting which had been brisk all moruing and was the lest hours of a very interesting contest whioh had lasted for several weeks, The Watchman and Record's big campaign for subscriptions came to a olose.

The contestants did good work and the number of subscriptions and votes obtained was somewhat of an agreeable surprise to all. Quite a nmber of the contestants were present to the last. heardtbe award of the judges, and though Beveral hoped to win the main prize, the contest was oonduoted so fairly and the awards so just, none were heard to make the slightest complaint. The gentle men who counted the votes and acted as judgeB were, Ex-Mayor F. M. Thompson, Capt. R. W. Price and J. JST. Maxwell, the judges originally selected finding their business engagements such that they oould not he present.

Of course more could have been done, I ut we have no reason to com plain aud shall go forward with renewed determination to furnish our readers with the best paper possible. In the addition of names to our lists and crediting up of old ones no doubt some errors hav orept in. Soma one may be getting two papers, some one who paid may have been overlooked, some one's name or address may be wrong, etc., so, if any errors have occurr ed, remember we are not only ready but anxious to make correc tions, if notified. The person who does not make mistakes does notJexiBt, so give us a chance tc make things right before makiDg unkind remarks. FINAL STANDING.

A. Roberts, prize No. 12, tea set, 834 200 It will be noticed that a watch was added to the list, making five watohes instead of four, thus the prize list was extended to twelve instead of eloven. This was done voluntarily on the part of the editor and indicates the desire to do the very best possible toward all conoerned. Oar only regret is that we did not have two pianos instead of one, Lut as this oould hot be the pleasure of presenting suoha handsome instrument to the next highest will be forgone. The China Grove ladies certain ly did fine, they having carried off five of the prizes . They had the best field outside of Salisbury and had they consolidated their efforts the first prize oould have gone to Ohina Grove withoue a doubt. Rheumatism Quickly Cured. "My sister's husband had in attack of rheumatism in his arm," writes a well known resident of Newton, Iowa.
