Self MaTe Man of tie People and for the People Every Time. (Winston Sentinel.) Cyrus 15. Watson, "Oar Cy," 4 1 as lie is popularly known A. A. S throughout Western North Car olina, is a son of the late John Watson, Ksq., and was born January 14th, 1844, near Ker- nersville, in what was then a part of Stokes, but forming now a very important section ol this (Forsyth) county From early childhood he was exceptionally bright and gave promise of great mental activity and capacity. His educational advantages were only those af forded by the common schools of that day. - When the dark clouds of tle late civil war arose and hovered threateningly over this South land, although only 16 years oi age, he was one of the first to go out from the home of his boy hood to fight, stirrer and, if need be, die for the Conlederate cause: He served most valiently as ser geant of company K, forty-fifth Regiment N. C, troops. He was seriously wounded at both Williamsport.Md., and Spottsyl- vama Court House. When the war closed Mr. Watson laid down his arms and came ikick. to 11 is j-vernersvuie ionic He served both there and at High Point lor a year or two as ct clerk in general merchan dise stores. He afterwards studied law under the late J. M. Leach at Lexington, and was ad mitted to the bar in 186S. Dur ing the next year, he was united in marriage to Miss A. E. Hen ley, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. W. P. Henley. Since the war, while loyal in every way to the Federal Gov, eminent, he lias at all times, by both word and action, shown himself an earnest defender of the South aud her interests. He is an active member of Norfleet Camp, No. 426, United Con fed-, erate Veterans. Mr. Watson rose rapidly to prominence in his chosen pro-, fession, developing into an able practicionex, especially adroit and successful in the conduct of criminal cases. In 1883 Mr. Watson was elect ed to the North Carolina State Senate, thirty -second district. He served as an efficient mem ber of the Committees on Inter nal Improvement, the Code, re districting the State, judiciary and several others. He was a hardworking Senator, in every way representing his district with much credit to himself and constituency, it is to Mr. Wat son that is due the credit for en gineering to successful enact' ment the most notable and salu tary law of that year, the famous anti-lynch law. He was elected to the senate by a majority of 1.305- About 1875 Mr. Watson form ed a copartnership for the prae. tice of law with the late W. B. Glenn, with whom he was asso ciated until 18S5, when the present well-known law firm of Watson & Buxton, which ranks as one of the foremost legal combinations in the State was formed. Again in 1 803 Mr. Watson was called into public lite, Having been elected to the lo wer House of the Legislature. In this po sition he. as in the Senate of 1883, labored diligently for the best interests of his constituency and State at large. He was the author and earnest! advocate of the famous anti-trust measure introduced in the House by himself, aud passed that body by a good maiority, but was foundered and defeated in the Senate by a bare majority. The direct aim of this measure was to throw off the heavy yoke of trusts aud combinations, which have for several years been saps ping the life from North Carolina industry and hindering her material prosperity. It aimed an especial blow at that arch enemy of the tobacco planter, the American Tobacco Com pany. Mr. Watson during this term of the Legislature served as chairman of the Committee on Banks, and was quite active in the passage 01 a law providing for the re-establishment of State banks, which was to go into efs feet when the Congress of the United States shall have repeal ed the 10 per cent, tax on insti tutiens of this character. It was during this session that Mr. Watson made his deepest and most favorable impressions upon the people of the State at large as an uncompromising Democrat and, as Forsvth's re cent convention expressed it. "the ancient and earnest foe of monopoly and trust the friend of silver the defender of the people's rights." It was with commendation like unto the quotation just used, that the Forsyth county convention, held 111 tins city June 2otn, most en thusiastically endorsed Mr. Wat .1 .-- son for the nomination as Demo cratic candidate for Coneress from the Eighth district. It was with unfeigned yet re luctant pleasure that Forsyth's delegation, in obedience to the State convention yielded their favorite as a Congressional can didate for the higher aud more responsible position of Governor of the Old North State. A PAINFUL SPECTACLE. A Governor and a Judge Engage in a Fistic Encounter on the Stump. For the past six years candid dates for public office in South Carolina have been blackguard ing each other on the stump and have been time and again on the very verge of getting togeth er in personal combat, but they had never gotten to the fighting point. The people had come to believe that such a thing as re-, seating an insult on the stump was a dream of the past. But Judge Joseph Earle broke the record when he jumped upon the stand at Florence, S. C, aud struck Governor lSvans 011 the head with his fist, getting a little blood drawn from under his eye in the personal row which fol lowed, Governor Evans' fist landing in his face. It was an exciting episode aud a most painful spectacle the Governor of the State aud a Circuit Judge in a public "scrap." The trouble was caused by Mr. Evans allud ing to Mr. Farle as a fice with his tail cut. The whole court room was wild with excitement for at least fifteen minutes. Friends crowded around the two men after they had been very forcibly separated. A number of pistols were drawn and held in the hands of their owners ready for use. Governor Evans was speaking when the incident occurred, Mr. ICarle having spoken. Candidate Duncan spoke afterwards, going for Gov ernor Ivans in pretty warm Ian- guage. Negroes Declare for Bryan and Sewall. The A fro-American League of Alabama, composed of many of the most iufluencial negroes in the State, met at Montgomery in in State convention last wreek and heartily indorsed the can didacy of Joseph F Johnson, Democratic nominee for Govern or, and that of Messrs. Bryan and Sewall. The resolution declares in favor of the policy of the Dem ocratic party. The announce ment of the convention's action occasioned considerable sensa- tion there. Poor Blood is starved blood.- It shows itself in pale cheeks, white lips, weak digestion, no appetite, exhaus tion, lack of nerve force, soft muscles, and, chief of all, weak muscles. Your doctor calls it Anaemia. He will tell you that the weakening weather of sum mer often brings it on. Scott's Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil with Hypo- phosphites, will make poor blood rich. It is a food for over-taxed and weak digestion, so prepared that it can easily be taken in summer when Cod-liver Oil or even ordinary foods might repel.

On June 4th a box containing about $600, the property of an old colored woman in the em ploy of Mrs. Schwarzkoff, was stolen from the latters residence in Ghent, near Norfolk. Va.. where the old woman had hid den it. When she discovered her loss a colored boy employed at the house was arrested for the crime and examined in the Nor folk Police Court, but no evi dence was found aerainst him. Several other men had also been at work in the cellar and the officers were at a loss as to whom to suspect. The case was given to Detect ive James, of Norfolk, and he captured his man. The party was C. H. Boush, an electr an, of that city. Boush, when cap tured, had taken the alarm and fled to this city and was about to take passage on the steamer Newbern for Nag's Head, when i was stopped by officers Brooks aud Sedgwick upon a elegram from the Norfolk authorities. He waved extradi tion papers and made a clean jreast of the whole affair. Pie bund the box of money while ic was laying electric wires in the basement of the residence. When arrested he had on his person $57.22 and confessed that le had spent the rest of the cash in having a good time. He blew it in along Norfolk's ten derloin district, indulged in wine suppers and dropped it at the summer resorts. AN OUTRAGE AT CUMNOCK. A MINER SHOT IN COI.D BLOOD BY Till-; BOSS OF TIIK HANDS. A miner was shot at Cumnock, N. C, last Saturday night by Davis, boss of the hands in the coal mines. The particulars of the unfortunate affair are about as follows: Lynn Barbee missed some money, and the man who now lies suffering with a pistol shot wound wassuspicioned of hav ing taken it. About a dozen miners clubbed up and took the supposed thief out and searched him. After finding no money on his person Davis forced him to kneel down and shot him in the mouth with a pistol. Tue ball shattered his jaw bone aud was found in his tongue. A doctor removed the pieces of bone aud it is thought the man will recover. Davis took the train and skips ped out. A North Dakota editor un burdens himself thus: "The politician is my shepherd, I shall not want for anything during the campaign. Pie leadeth me into the saloon for my vote's sake. Hefilleth my pocket with good cigars and my beer run neth over. He inquireth con cerning my family, even unto the fourth generation. Yea, though I walk through the mud and rain to vote for him, and shout myselt hoarse when he is elected, he straitway forge tteth me. Although I meet him in his own house he knoweth me not. Surely the wool has been pulled over my eyes all the days of my life." The Courier Journal says a breezy story is in the wind as to some recent correspondence be tween Mark A. Hanna and Ex President Harrison. Hanna wrote to request Gen. Harrison to enter the campaign at once and informed him that the tariff was to be given the main track, while the silver question was to be placed on a siding. The General responded that in his opinion the free silver Jrain was already on the main track. Ex. THE It A.S WAG OIV.

When we got to the postoffice at the mining town 01 straw berry Hill the mail bag had to be carried to and from Bluff City over the hills by a man on foot. The distance was nine miles and was traversed twice a week. One Wednesday the carrier came in without the bag and the 400 men assembled around the shanty used as a postoffice at once des mauded an explanation. "I'll tell you how it was," bes gan the man, who was bleeding from a dozen hurts. "Up thar at the bend I was tackled by a b'ar." "And you killed him, of course, replied one of the crowd. "No; I left my gun behind." "Then you dodged him?" "No. Tried to dodge him, but he wras right thar." "Then you ran away?" 'No chance to run. The crit ter was after me or that mail bag and I heaved him the bagand o-ot awav. He clawed me a few times, but it's nuthin' to hurt." "Stephen Jackson," said Judge Watkus, in solemn tones, as a murmur of indignation "passed through the crowd, "do you mean to tell us that that you gin that mail bag to that b'ar?" "I had to." "Didn't that b'ear seem to pre fer you to the bag?" "Reckon he did." "And you felt that he did?" "Yes; felt purty strong that way." "Aud yit, after sw'arin' to up hold the sacred constitution of the United States and defend that mail bag with your life, you calmly fed it to a b'ar?" "Had to do it to git away." "But who said anything about you gettin' away.- It was you solemn dooty to perish right thar! It was your dooty, sir, as a patriot and a mail carrier and a government ofnshull to hang that mail bag to a limb and let that b'ar go ahead on your kar kass! You hev escaped the b'ar, but you hev to deal with the outraged feelin's of this yer camp! Stephen Jackson, how do you prefer to die?" "By hangin'." "Wall, we'll send two men up to the bend. If they git the bag you are saved; if the b'ar has de voured it we'll hang you by the neck till you ar' dead." The men found the bag and the carrier's life was saved, al though he lost his job. Singir larly enough, the bag contained but one letter, and that was a missive for Judge Watkins from his wife iu Ohio, saying he need n't come home, as she had ap plied for a divorce and expected to marry a better man.

Superintendent William Ped dles, of the Central Railroad of New Jersey, was called on Mon day by a man who demanded $2,odo,ooo in Cential New Jer sey and Baltimore and Ohio bonds. The crank made the de mand as he toyed carelessly with a heavy piece of iron, which protruded from his trousers pocket. Mr. Peddles succeeded in in ducing the man to go to the office of Mr. Thompson.superiu tendewt of motor, to get the bonds, and in the meantime notified Mr. Thompson of the strangers advance on him. Thompson had a detective on hand, aud while the man was talking to Mr. Thompson the detective sprang at him and pin ioned his arms. The crank said he was Dennis M. Menipen, re-, siding in New York. A DOUBLE TRAGEDY. Husband Cuts His Wife's Throat and His Own. J. h. Hailey, a farmer living five miles from Petersburg, in Marshall couuty, Tenn.,on Tues day last, cut his wife's throat with a butcher knife and then plunged the knife into his own throat. The double tragedy took place in the presence of Hailey 's daughter, who, horri fied, fled to a neighbor's. The dead bodies were found lying in the yard one foot apart. The long butcher knife vras still stick ing iu Hailey's throat.

On Mo ml iv last Stafford county, Va., was thrown into a state of great excitement by the unlock ed for inteiruption of a marriage ceremony. When the preacher asked if any one knew any cause why the parties should not be married the father of the groom rose and objected because his son was already married. The son's name is William Harbour and the bride to be Emma An derson. All are of high social standing. Several letters were read from the wife of the would be groom. The preacher refused to go on with the ceremony and Barbour departed. If idleness does not produce vice or malevolence it common ly produces melancholy.

Perhaps it is not generally known that there is a natural ice factory iu the woild one that goes right on with its work through Summer's heat and Winter's snows ; yet such a phe nouicnon is presented by this (Scott) county.says a correspond ent of the Richmond Times. This phenomencn has been questioned as to its existance by scientific men, wlio regard such a thing as impossible and con trary to the well regulated laws of nature. The writer himself doubted the glowing stories lie had heard of it till he went there himself aud had an ocular dems onstration of its existence. Stony Creek is a clear, boid stream that thunders down over rough bowlders from Stone and Powell's Mountains.on the north side of this county, and empties into Chuca river at Fort Blacka more, the first place settled in all this section. About five miles from the mouth of Stony Creek is the mouth of an affluent known as the Devil's Fork. One mile and a quarter up this stream is the "iceburg," as it is known in that section. All around this place the lau rel and birch grow so dcnsly that it is with the greatest diffi culty one gets through it. The basin on which the "berg" is situated embraces about half an acre. On the north side the precipice makes a gentle curve, and on the south side there is a curvilinear indention in the mountain, giving the basin an elliptical form. The open space is an immense aggregation of huge boulders. It was a humid rainy morning and the rocks over which we had been walk ing presented no appearance of ice. lint tne instant we steps ped into the opening embracing ne "Dcrg tne rocks were sheathed with ice, and we had to ake heed of our footsteps. We lieu paused and looked down nto the openings in the rocks. There were the solid blocks of ice, completely filling the ere vices and giving the appearance that the whole place was pre pared by nature as a storehouse for that which alleviates the in tensity of Summer's merciless caloric. Everywhere was ice, crystal and clear. Under the ledges appeared stalagmites of ice, and down the nether sides of ten feet in depth was made last Summer, and from it great blocks of pure, solid ice were obtained. Those who made the excavation say that it was so cold in summer that they could remain at the work only a few 'minutes. From all indications the ice extends to the depths of many feet and covers a large surface. People of the vac'nity go there iu August and without trouble get ice. There is a variety of moss, long and fleecy, growing upon the rocks and adjacent trees, in which they can wrap the ice aud carry it long distances. Many theories have been ad vanced concerning the phenom enon, but your correspondent differs from all of them and ad vances the idea that it is simply the result of a compound action of the air in caverns below, pro ducing an effect similiar to that brought about by our ice factor ies. Remember only such medicines were admitted for exhibition at the World's Fair as are accepted for use, by physicians, in the practice of medi cine, Ayer's Sarsaparilla, Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, and Ayer's Pills being in cluded in the list. They arc standard medicines. The injuries we do and those we suffer are seldom weighed in the same balance. Just What's Needed Exclaims thousands of people who have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla at this season of the year, and who have noted the success of the medicine in giving them relief from that tired feeling, waning appetite and state of extreme exhaustion after the close confinement of a long winter season, the busy time attendant upon a large and pressing business during the spring months and with vacation time yet some weeks distant. It is then that the building-up powers of Hood's Sarsaparilla are fully appreciated. It seems perfectly adapt ed to overcome that prostiation caused by change of season, climate or life, and while it tones and sustains the sys tem, it purifies and vitalizes the blood.
