TIIE BUB0N1G PLAGUE
IN
INDIA.
(
,, Tto bubonio plague which is play
ing each havoc with the people in
India is one of the oldest and most
fatal plagues that is visited upjo the
Inhabitants of the . earth. In India
the people are thick"! j settled and; the
popafation is so dense in most parts
that the lands will barely produce
enough food fo their sustenance and
consequently a short crop produces
much hunger among the poor.' The
accounts of the suffering people that
are stricken with plague and famine
re almost heart-rending. Mr. J A
Calbreth has an article in this issue
in behalf of 'these sufferers. Every
one who feels so disposed is asked to
contribute something. Starvation is
terrible but accompanied by a deadly
: plague is doubly so.
The New Trk World says of the
"bubonic plague: .
The plague first appeared in . Eu-,
'rope in tb-s year 544 A. D. The most
conservative estimates place the num
ber of deaths in Europe alone from
this cause at twenty-five millions.
In the eighth century 200,000 per
sons died of the plague in Constanti
sople alone. ' Again in 1611 the mor
tality ia that city reached the same
appalling figures, In 1664-5 the
-deaths in London were about 100,000
tin spite of the faet. ihat most f the
population fled.
1 is-htty ihousand -persons fell victims
at Marseilles in 1720.
Eight hundred thousand died in I
Egypt in 1792..
Still more appalling is a compari-
.son'of averages; The reports from
various places ia India during the
jrdsent outbreak show that; about 96
per ceEt. or mnety-siz in a hundred
-f of all the persons attacked by the
.idisease have died.
j Now, the deadliest epidemic we
'Lave ever, -had in this country was
fat!0f yellow fever ia 1878-9 In1
' itbat outbreak there 4ere a total of
5,976 case!, of which only 14,809
lied. That is to say, the percentage
of taortality was only a fraction over
2 per (Oect.j agdnst the plague's reo

"Dear Sir: In compliance with your
Request I herewith hand you a atate-4
juut o tke apportionment of the school
.fund as inadety the commissioners on
.Jr.n. 6th,' 1807." 'J'Jje apportionment was
made on the Treasurer's report as the
)la,v;d4r.c.ts. This , report showed that
Uc amount Jthat would be received by
JtUrtou account ,of the taxes as appears
fin the tax books for 1S96 and from fine3
4ind liquor ricenseita amounted to $5324.
.40. HU report also shows that there
yas; $IG43.3T du several districts :
yhitc and cojored," and about jUaHy
divided bctveen the races, aud that there
was not any fundi Iu his bands to pay
said amouut, upon thU iuforiuation and
guiding tht there had not been any set
tlement with the Treasurer within the
Jast two years, embracing the taxes of
1894 and 8'J5, the Board charged him
With the amount that he had received
On said fund" for 1894 and '95 amount
to $9570.12. V Upon a settlement we
found that the Treasurer had expended
j9868. 67, leaving a balance in his favor
pt $298,23. Upon tills showing and by
further examination he Board became
Satisfied as to the correctness of the5
. claimj that there had beeu $1643.37 more
apportioned to the school fund than
hud bleu received.. This -deficit ould.
not be so large except from a loss of
due by Sheriff McArtaii and
03.30 released to A. L, Byrd, ex-Treas-urer,
and also $300.00 due by the county
fund, none of which is available at this
time, and when collected, if ever, then
pan and should be apportioned. The
Board then in Justice to the Districts,
that appeared would be at that lime the
looser of this amount, first set apart the
Rum of $1645.37 to meet the deficit and
fipportloned the balance as the lavy di
rects. Qn aceoir.it' Qf this deficit and
8 hools being tr.Ught In most of the Dis
tricts last year a good Tuauy teachers
were unable to get their pay after they
jad rendered their service, this should
not be so. .Hut It Is apparent that It
would be as loi as thj obstacle existed
and 'the Dl-trjets that t-iught their
schools early would- get their money
While rhofce u1m cnc lAte would ' fail,"
thereby chijgjn this loss "every year to
f lie District that were last in teaching
fhelr seooU, The present Board
fh'MirhtJt fust, equitable $ud right that
this los should be shared equally by the
Vcral Districts cf the county, and In
fhe fuiir there would be no trouble

Mr Editor Allow me Fpace in
your paper for a abort letter in regard
t the famine in India. In. addition
to what I bad ' read in the papers, I
received a letter from Miss Mattie
Perry, who is engaged in M ssioo
work, some over a week ago telling
me lomething of the condition of the
people over there. Our tniesionaries
re doing all they can io the way of
taking e ire of, the;' starving people,
but they do not bare means sufficient
to meet the demands of the crisis, and
many who aire perishing have to bj?
turned away from their homes with
out help. This lady wrote me that
little children were taken up who
were so near perished, that when thej
would eat anything they would die
immediately I went out on Monday
morning aad gave some of the good
people of Dunn . an opportunity to
help and in time to get it off on .the
moining train I had $65 for them,
and thought I would write tbisvletter
for last week's issue , of your r paper
and give jotbers an opportunity to give
something for the sufferers, but was
so busy in moving I did not have!
time to write Since . then . I have
read extracts from letters from mis
sionaries and their accoufit of the
situation is horrible. In. one of the
letters the writer say s: ' I have often 1
thought my Own ' life . was gradually
going out wjith care and anxiety over
these children. " They come with
bones thrust through their skin with
eyes turned inside out, with dy: eatery ,
pholera and everything. Children
five and six years old were brought
in baskets because they eould not
walk." .. It is not necessary for me
to quote further, as the papers have
had so much to -ay about it that read
ing people .know of it. I jqst simply
want to say that I "will take pleasure
in forwarding any amount that the
people feel disposed to give, and hope
to receive a good large contribution
for them, and they will ge the; bene
fit of all the monev given as there
will he no expense to be paid between
here and them.
As I will ho be "in Dunn no to
receive the contributions of those in
and around town, I would ask that
yon leave your contributions with
Bro. D. II. Hood who will, I'm sure
take pleasure in forwarding it to me.
Don't think that your contribution
would be too small to help. Any
will help, and we are greatly blessed
here in this land, and should iielp the
sufferers all we can. The crumbs
that fall from bur tables would be a
wholesome dish for the little starving
children. Help all you can and the
Lord will bless you in return.

las Shoes.
mere is no shoe made for men s
m 1 m
wear that has attained a greater pop-;
ularitv than the celebrated W. LJ
Douglas shoe. The fact that they
combine style and quality at alow
price nas given tnem universal in
dorsement. The manufacture of these
shoes has made it possible for a man
in the most ordinary circumstances to
keep himself provided with "footwear
of as good style as the market affords
the extremely low price at which
.they are sold . placing them within
reach of all.
The only cheap quality in tbem
however is the price; in all other re
spects they grade as high as any sbce
in the market. Their lasting quali
ties have, been fully tested and found
to be unequalled. They are not only
of good btyle when new, but. retaiu
their shape and excellent appearance
until completely worn out a. very
rare quality in even the highest prioed
shoes. They, are sold in Dunn by
