Graceful Women A ta*t« for perfect figure Is Insepar able from a love of the beautiful. The scents of the heliotrope, violet or rose are as precious as the lovely flowers whose breath thev are, and while the lives of flowers are brief and we can only enjoy them for a day, the beautiful woman gives the pleasure of her fra grance to us as a permanent blessing. The sweet, pure breath of the babe is suggestive of innocence and health—the soft fragrance of a beautiful woman suggests to the senses purity, health and elegance; she Is the refinement of civilization; she is indicative of a desire to plense, an index of good taste, and an unerring badge of ge^ility.

BUCK, MINISTER TO JAPAN, DEAD, Taken Suddenly 111 While Upon a Hunting Trip Near Tokio. (By the Associated Press.) Washington, Dec. 4.—The Japanese minister called at the State Department In haste today to communicate to Secre tary Hay a cablegram he had received from the Minister for Foreign Affairs at Tokio, dated today, stating that while Mr. Buck, the United States minister to Japan, was on a hunting trip this morn ing he was suddenly taken ill and ex pired. At the close of the official day a cable gram was received at the State Depart ment from Mr. Ferguson, the second secretary of the American legation at Tokio, saying that it was his painful duty to announce the death of Minister Buck, who died today, but making no explanation of the conditions. It is expected that the remains of the deceased minister, who was a veteran of the Civil war, will be wrought to Washington for interment at Ailington, where the minister selected a burial site for himself when he was in the United States about two year.s ago. Mrs. Buck is understood to be in Tokio, and the State Department will address a proper message of condolence to her. The deceased minister was born : n Maine, but was appointed to his post from Georgia, April IS, 18!)7. His service cov ered a critical and important chapter of Japanese history. The t State Department will take the necessary steps to see that Mr. Buck’s remains are brought to this country for interment if his family so desire. Huntington Wilson, the secretary of the legation, will be designated is charge. Yokohama, Dec. 4.—United States Min ister Buck died today while at the Im perial duck shoot. The cause of his death is supposed to have been apoplexy. Another report says Mr. Buck’s death was due to heart failure. The hunt oc curred in the suburbs of Tokio. Atlanta, Oa., Dec. 4.—Hon. Alfred E. Buck was about CO years old. Many years ago he removed to Atlanta and became a leader in Republican politics in Georgia. For some years he served as United States marshal of Georgia. His last visit to Atlanta was made about one year ago. THE B£NrENCRS MODIFIED. The McMahan Bays Pay Fines and Will Serve Four Months in Jail. (Special to tlm News and Observer.) Rutherfordton, N T . (\, Dec. 4.—After an extra hard tight by th* 1 attorneys of John and Lester McMahan (brothers), who were last week trad, found guilty and sentenced to fifteen months in the peni tentiary for the seduction of Florence and Daisy McArthur, Judge Hoke has changed the sentence to a fine of sf>o from each, SSO to each of the girls and serve four months in the county jail. The lines were promptly paid and the boys are now serving the sentence This nr rangement seems satisfactory to all, which was no doubt agreed upon after several witnesses of high character were put on the stand after the trial and swore to startling and injurious state ments made by the father of the girls, which was not competent evidence before the jury that heard the sensational case. SHE IS FROM CHICiO3. The Woman Who has Been Trying to Dispose of Her Baby. (Special to New’S and Observer.) Wilmington, N. C., Dec. 4.—As the re sult of an investigation concluded today, the identity of the young woman who has been giving the hospital authorities so much annoyance by sending a tiny Labe, born to her a few days ago, to the residences of numerous citizens in Wil mington, became known. She is a stenographer who came here some months ago from Chicago and has been employed by one of the meat packing con cerns, having its headquarters in the west. A comfortable home has been found for the infant by the police, and no further action will likely be taken unless it is the arrest cf the young woman’s accomplice in spiriting the baby away from the institution and laying it at the doors of residents, who would likely adopt it. MEANT TO VOTE DEMOCRATIC TICKET. It is Believed the Registrar Who Refnßed to Register Hum Knew This. (Special to News and Observer.) Rutherfordton, N. C., Dec. 4.—The news 1 to the effect that the registrars are to be indicted in the Federal court, created no little talk here among both Republi cans and Democrats.

C. fHE NEWS AND OBSKRVER, FRIDAY MORNING, DEC. 5. 1902. to them, although they evidenty knew what they were talking about. Two of them, the negro preacher, Black, and Will A. Carpenter, who were refused registration by Mr. John W. Simpson, the registrar here, have been sumrnoued to appear at Charlotte court next week. Mr. Simpson was seen today by your j correspondent and asked for an expres ! sion. He said he had nothing to say, more than that he had complied with the law as best he understood it —was ; acting only as ho thought the law re quired him to act, with impartial to wards both races. It is said, and not denied, that both these negroes have frequently said since the refusal of reg istration that they would have voted the Democratic ticket, and it is thought Mr. Simpson knew or heard this before they applied for registration. Black is a preacher and a teacher. Carpenter is a butcher. He was a captain in the Third North Carolina regiment during the Spauish-Ameriean war. A BLOW ON THE HEAD Verdict of Coroner’s Jury in the Case of B. F- Sims (Special to News and Observer.) Lumberton, N. C., Dec. 4.—Coroner Ed. Mcßae, of Maxton, held an inquest here today over the remains of Mr. B. F. Sims, who died yesterday under suspi cious circumstances. The coroner’s jury rendered the verdict that death was due to a blow on the head by the hand of one Cooper, in Wil mington. I he facts so far attainable are these: Sims attended Federal court in Wil mington last week. Having “tanked up’’ he started for his boarding house, but got into Cooper’s residence by mistake. He began cursing and acting unbecoming ly when Cooper struck him on the head 'Will a chair. He came here Saturday. Sims was a carpenter and came here fi om Red Springs about one year ago. The remains were buried today. Wilmington Tells the Stoiy. (Special to News and Observer.) Wilmington, N. (’., Dec. 4.—Yesterday a week ago, during the sessions of Fed eral court, in this city, B. F. Simms, a white man, of Robeson county, who was here as a witness, wandered in an ap parently drunken condition into the house of Jesse W. Cooper, a painter, residing at Fifth and Campbell streets. The own er of the house Inquired of the stranger as to what he wanted and received for a reply that it was “none of your d—d busi ness.” Enraged at this reply. Cooper dealt the man a blow over the head and turned him over to an officer for arrest. Simms was locked in a cell at the police station and was lot off with the cost by the mayor on the following day in the municipal court. The stranger went his way and nothing more was thought of the case until last night when a tele gram from Lumberton, Simm’s home, an nounced his death, as the result of th<> blow received the week before in Wil mington. The telegram asked for Coop er’s arrest but the local authorities re fused today to do more than hold the man under surveillance until a warrant could arrive. Cooper is a man of excel lent character and the evidence brought out in the mayor’s court seems to justify the clubbing which Simms received. Further developments are expected to re sult in Cooper’s being taken to Lumber ton for an investigation of the affair. The Company Settles the Case, (Special to News and Observer.) Greensboro, N. C., Dec. 4.—The Greens boro Electric Company yesterday paid the hospital and doctors expenses of J. A. Edgerton, who was injured some time ago by falling in front of a street car, at the Southern crossing. Mr. Edgerton was the news agent on the Raleigh train, and was hurrying to catch his train, when he slipped and fell just ahead of an approaching car, the rare pres, nee cf mind of the motornum alone prevent ing a horrible tragedy. While it is said Mr. Edgerton did not claim any negli gence on the part of the company, it took this means of settling the ease and is to bo cordially commended for it. The Greensboro Lodge of Elks have prepared an appropriate programme for their memorial exercises to take place at the Grand Opera House here Sunday afternoon next at 3 p. m.

A MENTAL ANGUISH SUIT Mistake of a Telegraph Operator Prostrates a Family With Grief. (Special to News and Observer.) Greensboro, N. C., Dec. 4.—The peculiar misconception and misreading of a mes sage sent from the telegraph office at Salisbury by some operator of the Wes tern Union somewhere on the line be tween there and High Point sometime ago, gave rise to a heart-rending scene in High Point, and a suit for damages v. ill grow out of it. Messrs. Westcott Roberson, of High Point, and J. A. Bar ringer, of Greensboro, have the case in band, and announce that a suit will be brought against the Western Union, based on mental harrassment growing out of negligence of the company. The amount of damages they will claim has not been given out. But the facts, as the com plaint will state, are substantially as follows: On November 20th, Mr. Arthur Thomp son, superintendent of a chair factory, was taker, by his father-in-laW, Mr. Love lace, of High Point, to Dr. Long’s sani tarium, at Salisbury, to have an operation performed for appendicitis. The next day Mr. Lovelace filed in the telegraph office at Salisbury, to his son at High Point, where Mrs. Thompson was with her mother, this message: “Operation per formed. Patient doing well. Return home tonight.” But the message deliv ered to Mr. Lovelace, Jr., and by him communicated to the family, read: "per ation performed. Patient dying; will re turn him tonight.” Upon receipt of this intelligence, Mrs. Thompson and her mother fainted, and the services of two physicians were nec essary to quiet them. Mrs. Thompson was uncontrollable however, until it was promised that she could go to Salisbury, the next train, then nearly due. Proceeding to Salisbury, Mrs. Thomp son found her father comfortably asleep, as his train for High Point was not duo, and her husband resting quietly at the sanitarium, all danger from the opera tion being over. Attornies for the family say they have a clear case. The lawyers for the Western Union on the other hand say that, granting the facts to be true, a3 stated there isn’t any case, for it will be hard for the other side to make the company responsible to Mrs. Thompson, when it 3ent no message to her; the same as to her mother; that Lovelace, Jr., never got a message from Thompson, but from bis father, and That he was not in any legal sense supposed to be interested sufficient to be legally damaged; and that the simple communi cation of distressing and incorrect intelli gence by Lovelace to his sister did not make the company liable. It does seem a little mixed. N- D PARKS IS DEAD. He was Winning Recognition as the Possessor of Rare Hypnotic Gifts (Special to News and Observer.) Scotland Neck, N. C„ Dec. 4.—Yester day the remains of Mr. N. S. Parker were brought from his home near Tillery and Interred in the Baptist cemetery here. He was taken sick Friday with hemor rhagic fever and had two yellow chills. He died Tuesday morning, leaving a wife and five small children. He was one of the most highly esteemed citizens of bis community. Some months ago it developed that Mr. Parks was possessed of rare powers in the hypnotic art and recently he had given a number of entertainments in various places. He gave two entertain ment before cultured aitdienees in Scot land Neck, and it was generally conceded that no finer hypnotic entertainments had ever been given here. Had lie lived a year or two longer be doubtless would have attained groat distinction in the art. Some days ago n colored man named F. Nevill, shot a colored woman at Til lery, named Mattie Goodman. The wound was not fatal. On the Meekins farm near Palmyra, a few days ago, a colored child was in the field near some fire when its clothes were caught and it was burned to death.
