Some time ago there was sent to a lady living in .lower -'part of the county a package i needles (purporting lo contain 20 papers when in reality there was but 18) without any solicitation on her part. They came in her absence and supposing it was all right were taken from the post office by some member of the family. Subseqently a request for jay came from the concern which sent them out. No attention was paid thereto in theabsence of the lady, . Finally a threaVwas made to put the claim in the hands of an attorney or exjxjse the party by publication in the papers. This m.ich by way of explanation and now we will let the lady speak for herself. In reply to the in per ti nent threat of rascally and extort ing needle concern the lady in question Wrote a postal card (she would not waste a 2 cent stamp and stat onery on the .i) of which the following is an exact copy Sir: The pack a e of needles sent to Man son, N.C., in my name, containing eighteen papers pur porting to contain twenty: Is still in my possession. If you will re mit postage, also one cent for this postal, I will ship them back to you. Miss -. desired me to say the same of her package, which also contained only eigh leen papers. Now I wish to say a few words to you. Who .ave you the right to insult me in any such manner? I wouldn't give a row of pins for a bushel of your pinchback jewelry. I can buy better needles for one cent per paper. It never entered my mind to sell one of them. You threat eq to give the account to a lawyer do you? Well, you use my name in any unpleasent way if you dare, and you will think a cyclone has struck your grand Needle Co. You have certainly waked up the wrong passenger this time. If I do not hear from you im mediate !y I shall express them back O. D. I was not at home when the things came or I should not have taken them out of the office. 1 was in Western Carolina, and since mv return -it has aDnoyed !ii! every time I have-thought of ihem. ' '...When .you think of ut dersigiie.t remember that I take no stock wh i tever in --f olid goid rings worth two cnts, diamonds worth ten cents a peck, and brown stone mansions to be given away for three two cent stamps. I have wast; d more of my time now than I had to spare on an un qualified humbug. Remember instructions, and be quick a out it. MRS, In a few days thereafter the writer of the pos'tal received an envelop containing a 2 cent and a one-cent stamp. But that was all they made no reply. We learn that other ladies in the same neighborhood have receive pack age so f - u e id le s, c h eap jewel ry aud the like from the same con cern unsolicited. If they fail to scare or coerce the "parties into payiug for things they 1 se but little and those paid for puts the concern that much ahead. The Gold Leaf regrets that the name of these humbugs and scoundrels was not furnished it for mihlirs tion. They ought to be publicly ! exposed Henderson Gold Leaf, Say "No" when a dealer offers you a substitute for Hood 's Sarsapa villa- There is nothing "just as good." Get only Hood's. A Farmer Boy.

C THURSDAY, JANUARY 19, 1899. . Cigarette Victim?, j Tuere are eople in North Car olina who are greatly in love with the cigarette manufacture They contend that it is not hurtful and dcxis not rob the farmers. It is well known at the beginning of recruiting for the army when the var with Spain began, that a arge proportion of the volunteers vere rejected on the grounds of the cigarett" habit which had un fitted them for military duty, the Messenger gave reports at the time. Dr. Benjamin Kidd. of Philadelphia, stated that the re jrjctibns at the time he wrotewere 90 per cant of the whole applying He Lad acted as examining sur eou during the years of 1861 03 in the states of New York, Penn syivauia, Ohio and Indiana, the averaga rejection during those ears did not exceed 13 per cent. Be attributes the . large in crease almost entirely to the cig arette habit. We see from these figures from a reliable source that our per ceht towards deteri oration since the civil war is very great The Messenger within six or -jight mohths published accounts of some sad cases amoung youths one dying and another made in sane by the desperate cigarette habit. Not long since, within a few weeks, the .Raleigh News and Observer gave a most pitiful ac count of another miserable vie tirn. It said: "A striking example of the ef fect of excessive cigarette smok ing and the over indulgence of alcoholic stimulants was witness "d at the union depot yesterday morning in the person of Harry A. I'obson of Goldsboro. He had no control over his nerves what ever; and was in a continual mus cular jerk and was suffering in tense misery. He was being tak en by his father, Mr. J. F. Dob son, postmaster at Goldsboro, to St. Elizabeth's Washington, D. C, for treatment." Wilmington Messenger. Weldon's Cotton Mill. The directors of the Weldon Cotton Manufacturing Company met hist week and perfected their o; gaijizi lion jy the election of ihe f(d lowing officers: W. T. Shaw, President; W A Pierce, Secretary and Treasurer; M. A. Smith, General Mana.er. The plans and specifications of this mill are in the hands of the various contractors and bids will be opened at an early day and the contract awarded to the lowest bidder. The successful bidder is to enter into a contract, with forfeit to comolete the building in sixty days from the time that work actually begins. The build ing of this mill is only a natural consequence, We have known all along that the splendid water power, the fine mill site and Wei don's great railroad fa ilities would sooner or later attract the notice of men of cap.tal, enter- riseand push. This is but the b ginning of other enterprises, ton as soon as this factory begins work a factory for the manufact ure of overalls, on a large scale is to be put up; and doubtless others will follow in quick! sue cessiau. Weldon Roanoke News. " Another Factory Just as soon as the cotton mill is completed one of our citizens will Leg-n the manufacture if oeralls on a large scale. The factory will be lighted by Electricity and a proposition will be made to light the town and the railroid warehouses and yards with electric lights. The factory will be compelled to put in elec tricity, anyway, for the lighting of its piaiit and, of course, it wili rot be much more expensive to rut in machinery sufficient to furnish the towu aud the railroads with lights. We learn .'.that, Mr. Paul. Garrett also contemplates 5r,ttiog in electricity at Cnocka ,!U. t - .power to be furuished hv tue Weldon Cotton Manufac turing Company. N-.w thai the future of Weldon is sMi red the people' who told y u so" are numerous and they do not fail to impress cpon you Carnegie-Bryan. Those who have read tht? recent ietters of Andrew Carntgie on our uational affaira were surpris ed to see that he understands the dangers which threaten the exis tence of our free institutions. It is remarkable that a person hav ing charge of such vast business nterprises should fin l time to devote to the discussion of the affairs of government He has shown himself a statesman as well as a iover of his adopted country. He has been studying American affairs from a nonpart isan standpoint, and hence his opinions and thoughts are of very great value. Like thousands of others Mr. Carnegie has been im pressed with the wisdom, frank ness, cleanness of views aod force of'W. J. Bryan. He sought an in terview with ti e Nebraska states man. In a letter he said: 'I want you to come and see me. .1 would go to you, but am sick and unable to leave the house. I believe you are the only' man in the country to day who can save us from the twin evils of imper ialism and militarism." His opinion of Bryan, after a protracted interview, was entire ly changed. He opposed Bryan in 1890 and admits his mistake. He is ready now to give him his. hearty aud earnest support if he shall again be a Presidential candidate. Many others who voted for McKin'ey in 1896 are enthusiastic in their admiration of Bryan. It woeld be expected that a man w7ho is constantly talking would say many foolish things. His politi cal enemies (and Bryan l as no other kind) are watching for some opportunity to get him down. Thy have watched and-waited in vain, Every sentence he utters makes him friends. Cincinnati Inquirer. Has a Remedy Been Found. The trusts are about to take the country. Hardly a week passes that the formation of a new one isn't announced. The people are entirely at their merry in the ab sence, as at presenf, of legal re straints, either as to the price they choose to enact, for their prod ducts or the quality of it. W- mentionedin the last issue of The Landmark the inferior quality of the kerosene oil which is now be ing sold in this towu, but the Stan dard Oil Company controls this product and if complaint were made to it, it would perhaps snap its fingers in the face of the custo mer and ask him, "What nre you going to do about it?" He isn't going, to do auy thing at all because he can't. He will use Standard Oil kerosene or he won't use any at all So with hundreds of other articles, some of them the very necessaries of life. The subject is suggested by reading the decision ' f a local court in Missouri last week which goes very nearly to theoot of the trust evil. It is, in brief, that an organization formed upon any ar ticle, for the purpose of controll ing ik price, cannot; under the laws of Missouri, collect a debt That is taking a pretty strong hold and some ol jections may be found to this method of dealing with the trusts, on the grounds of morals, but it may be justified as a matter of fighting the devil with fire. If this Missouri deeish-n will stick every State in the Union might well adopt the Missouri anti trust law, and by its application these iniquitous organization would at last be reached and broken up, for even a trust cannot hope to do a spot cash business and doing a r , , iU y credit business when the credifoi -j did not have to pay, would been- tirely too risky.

Poultry Notes, j Bulletin No 152. issued by the Xorth Carolina Agricultural Ex periment SMtidn. contains some poultry notes by Mr. P, R Hege. These notes represent a portion of the work completed duriug ihe past year. In reading the oulletin. it will be noted that the nouses and other poultry appli mces are very cheap and simple in many cases, si me being made A old boxes and old lumber. This plan was purposely followed, as it was desired by the Station to raise poultry with juit such ap pliances as any one would be able to have or to make with ordinary farm conditions The first portion of the bulletin is made up of disease experi ments, whrch. it should be said, were with bird; belonging to others. The poultry of the Ex periment Statiou was f reel from I disease, with very slight except lions. This was probably due to the health precautions taken, and from which others may see the importance of keeping thej poul try yard a.nd houses clean and : well cared for. Care was also! taken to protect the poultry from I coid or violent winds, and to give j plenty . f corn meal, gravel or j grit and charcoal, The important j point is also noted that, unless the fowl attacted is a valuable one ihe hatchet will be of more ser vice than any other method of treatment" as the care of the sick fowl. would be a source of troi ble even if cured, and the keeping of a sick fowl may be a source of danger in spreading the disease among other "fowls. The second portion of the bul letin gives a feeding experiment with Pekin ducks, which at eight weeks of age, were soldat fifty cents each, their cost being about twenty five cents, exclusive of la bor or ground rent. The result of some incubator hatches are given with a record of temperatures whhh is not without value to amateurs in ar tificial incubation. This bulletin may be obtained free of charge, by any one, upon application, ' y postal card, to Prof. VV. A. Withers, Acting Di rector of the Experiment Station Raleigh. N. C. UO CURE NO PAY.

Sykes has been released from a protracted state of bodily suffer inir against which he had made in heroic but unsuccessful strug gle, finding victory only when death angel came to his relief. He bore his afflictions with firm resignation and Christian forti tude, being conscious to the end. Though he suffered much he nev er complained. The loving fami iy, good neighbors, friends, kind and attentive physician did all they could for his relief, but the ime came when man's arms vvere too short; and he fell asleep in Jesus. Bro. Sykes was one of the best farmers in this county and kuew how to tke care of what he made There were few men in this coun ty who were more respect?d than he. He made a profession of faith in Christ at the age of 22 years, in the Frst Baptist church iu Richmond under the preach in of the renowned Dr. Jeter ind soon afterwards joined Pleas ant Grove Methodist church. He was s teward in that church until he was received into the fel lowship of Garysburg Methodist chu rch of which he died an exem plary membeirHe loved souls for Christ's sake and besought them is the Master went after lost heep. His pious walk was a liv ing sermon to all who knew him.

His funeral was preached at his late residence by bis pastor, Rev. J. D. Pegram. and a large congregation met to pay their ast tribute of hespect. We ten ler our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved wife, two daughters md two sons and sorrowing friends and commend them to the render love and mercy of our heavenly Father.
