Raleigh" News-Observer : The

- The death of Mr. P. C. Fleming,
which occurred yesterday morning at 6
o'clock, removes from among the people of
Raleigh, one of its best known and most
highly respected citizens. Col. L. C.
Jones. Superintendent of the Carolina Cen
tral railroad, waa suddenly and violently
attacked by sickness early yesterday morn
ing at Hamlet vhile en route from Wil
mington to Raleigh. He waa travelling in
his private car and was accompanied by
Mr. Bbarpe. treasurer of the road, and Mr.
R. T. Gray of this city. The violence of
tbe attack alarmed these gentlemen and
for some time they thought it would prove
fatal. Every thing possible was done for
Col. Jones and he soon had relief.
He came on to this city, where a
physician attended him and later on he
left almost recovered from the attack.
Parties on East Hargett and Wil
mington streets complained yesterday of
some reckless shooting that was being
done in that quarter. It is thought that
some one has been using a flobert rifle for
shooting sparrows, cats, pigeons, &c., and
that the shooter was regardless of the sur
roundings, or of the direction in which be

Mr. Corbin. daughter of Dr. E. G. Ward,

Agricultural Department. The im
pression is current nere, wun more man
conjecture to sustain it, that ex-District
Attorney Boyd is to be the Republican
candidate for Governor in North Carolina.
It is a still-hunt movement and is said to
be developing unexpected strength. Boyd

He is a bold, strong campaigner ana a man

CURED !
HOPKHWTOXB, KT., Feb. 24. 1887.
Gentlemen Seren year ago a sora devel
oped on my nosa from a linger nail scratch.
I tried a few almpla remadles. but the sore
would not yield. I grew worse every year
for aevea yaara. Many thought I had a can
cer. Over a year ago I commenced taking
a. 8. 8., and two dozen bottles entirely cured
me. When I began with Swift's Specific I
waa la very poor health, and oauld hardly .
drag abont. After J had finished tbe course
of 8. B. 8. I was strong and buoyant, and
had a good appetite. I regard it as a most
valuable medicine for ladles in weak, deli
cate health. It Is a household medicine
with me. Tours respectfully.

SfASTAJTBuao, 8. C April 2, 1887.
Gentlemen For twenty years I have had
a sore on my left cheek. It had gradually
Dean growing worse, int many physicians
whom I had consulted were unable to do
me any good. Last fall a year ago I began
using S. S. 8. At first it inflamed the sore,
aad it became more virulent than ever ; so
nluch so. Indeed, that my family insisted
thakl should leave off the- medlclije.' 4 per
sisted in using tne a. . h. At tha end of two
montns tne sore waa entirely healed. Think
ing that tha evU was out of my oonsUtutlon,
I left off tha medicine ; bnt In November,
ten montns after, a very slight breaking out
appeared. I at once began again on S. 8. S ,
and now that is also disappearing. I have
every faith in 8. 8. 8. It has done me more
good than all the doctors and other medi
cines I avejt took. Tours truly,
A. B aai.Kia.
Wdsstos, K. O. -April 12, 1587.
Gentlemen Two or three years ago a can
cer came on my face. It soon grew to be
quite large. It wore on me, and my general
health was very poor. Last September I
began a course of S. 8. 8., wuloh 1 have con
tinued to the present time with tha happiest
result. The cancer has entirely disappeared,
there being no evidence or symptom of a
cancerous character left. My goneral health
Is good now, and my appetite better than It
has been In years. I am 82 years old, and
to-day I am working in tbe field planting
corn. Tours truly, Johas T.mitmm
Gentlemen I had a sore on my upper lip
for eight years. Seven different doctors at
teapted in vain te heal it. One gave me a
small vial for five dollars, which was a "cer
tain cure." It is needless to say that it did
me no good. About two rears ago I became
quite uneasy, as people thought I had a can
cer, and I took a course of eighteen bottle
of 8. 8. 8. The result has been a complete
cure. The ulcer or cancer healed beautiful
ly, leaving scarcely a perceptible scar. From
that day I have been in excellent health, the
Specific having purified my blood thorough
It, Increased my appetite and perfected my
digestion. In a word, I feel like a new
woman, and, best of all, the eight year ulcer
Is gone entirely. Tours sincerelv,
