Disastrous floods have been
general this year. We have had
them in various sections of this
continent, and Europe and Asia
have suffered much from them
In India and China the destruct
ion of property has been immense
and the loss of life fearful.

NORTH CAROLINA SENA
TORSHIP.
A SPIRITED CONTKST IN PROSPKCT HE
TW'EKN THE CONTENDING FACTIONS.
Washington Post.
The approaching Senatorial
contest in North Carolina prom
ises to be the most intensely in
teresting ever held in that State.
There is no derth of political
timber. The prominence 01 the
candidates adds to the interest of
the fight. Senator Jarvis, ap
pointed by the Governor to fill
the unexpired term of Senator
ance, announced before he ac
cepted the appointment that he
would be a contestant for the
seat now held by Senator Ran
som. Between Messrs Ransom
and Jarvis there has long been a
bitter rivalry. Mr. Ransom has
worn the Senatorial toga lor
twentv-four vears and wants to
succeed himself. He will make
a bitter fijht to retain his hold,
and the equal determination of
Governor Jarvis to win will add
zest to the race before unequall
ed. Hon. T. W. Mason, Railroad
Commissioner, is another con
testant. Senator Jarvis is a free-
suverite; senator Kansom is a
staunch administration man, and
the administration forces will
probably be with Senator Ran
som. The result of the race will
depend upon the complexion of
the new Legislature and also
whether Congressmen Hender
son and Alexander will announce
.their candidacy. The friends of
Captain Alexander are urging
him to enter the race aud
assure him of success. Among
the -many candidates for the Sen
atorship from the Western Dis
trict are Judge A. C. Avery, of
the Supreme Court; Judge Arm
field of the Superior Court; Judge
R. T. Bennett, Hon. Augustus
Leazer, ex-Speaker of the House
of Representatives of the State;
ex-Judge J. H. Merriman; ex
Attorney -General Davidson, and
Hon. F. I. Osborne, the present
Attorney -General.

BROWN'S IRON BITTERS
A GULF BETWEEN THEM.
THE COMMONWEAL AND INDUS
TRIAL ARMIES SEPARATE.
On Saturday, "Gen Galvin,"
with between 100 and 200 men,
marched from camp Bastile, of
the Coxeyites. and established
his headquarters in the yard of
the old George Washingtonhouse
at Bladensburer. There is now a
wide gulf between the Common
weal and the Industrials.
When Frye reached Washing
ton, whither he came by rail in
advance of his adherauts, he vis
ited Coxey in prison. Coxey
gave him a commission as commander-in-chief
of the "Indus
trials" or "Commouwealers"
The Galvin people, on reaching
their camp today, deposed Frye
from command of the Industrial
army and elected Galvin General.
Though the Commonwealers
are living upon scant farebread,
coffee, and a mite of meat the
Galvinites are absolutely without
provisions, but they intend to re
main at Bladensburg so as to
participate in the monster dem
onstration of the unemployed
which they expect will take
place toward the end of ibis
mouth.
A PASTOR WHO SAYS PEO
PLE THAT GO TO HELL
ARE BURNED UP AS
A LOG.
Charlotte News.
Rev. J. K. King, of Arlington
Baptist church, is succeeding in
getting up a big stir in his vicin
ity. He has become not only
rich and racy in his expressions
and manner but is decidedly sen
sational in his doctrinal belief,
and out-Beechers Beecher him
self. Some of his members stand
by him aud even swear by him,
while others won't venture near
the church at all.
Some time ago Rev. Dr. Har
rill, of the Philadelphia Presby
terian church, preached a sermon
on "The Future Punishment,"iu
which he declared: "The man
who goes to heaven is in the very
presence of God and enjoys the
highest glory forever. But the
man who goes to hell burns up
like a log heap and thats the
last of him. It may take longer
to burn him than it does to burn
the log, but the process is the
same."
Some of his congregation are
up in war, but he quoted scrip
ture in order to prove what he
said aud many of his hearers ac
cepted it as gospel truth. At
present lie is the talk of Clear
Creek.
Rev. Mr. Crabtree, a Baptist
who still holds to the old faith,
was in the city today to confer
with Revs. Pritchard and Austin
in regard to the case, and to ask
their opinion on the matter. Mr.
Ciabtrec says King has become
very sensational aud preaches all
manner of heresy every Sunday.
He says further that King served
Arlington aud Wilson Grove
churches about four years ago,
left there audatWaxhaw church
was expelled from the Baptist
ministry. He returned and has
been spreading discord around
Arlington and Wilson Grove
ever since.

Sarsaparilla. lie writes:
" For eight years, I was, most of tho
time, a great sufferer from constipa

to he completely broken down. I wa.s
induced to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and
took nearly seven bottles, with such
excellent results that my stomach,
bowels, and kidneys are in perfect con
dition, and, in all their functions, as
regular as clock-work. At the time
I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, my
weight was only 129 pounds ; I now can
brag of 159 pounds, and was never in so
good health. If you could see me be
fore and after using, yon would want
me for a traveling advertisement.
I believe this preparation of Sarsaparilla
to be the best in the market to-day."
