C. for some time reached her 1 T 1 new Home in vvancnese last week. Those who went to the church Wednesday evening for prayer meeting found it beautifully dec orated with arches, hearts, and bells. Soon too the wedding bells rang out and the ushers, W. H. B. Langston and L. D. Tarking- ton announced the bridal party. Then the grand old Mendelssohn rang out, beautifully rendered by Miss Eva Eola Evans, and the bridal party entered. The first who entered was Miss Jennie Langston, maid of honor, with Mr. Thomas R. Creef. Then came Miss Dessie Simpson with Mr. Willie Baum, Miss Mattie Johnson with Mr. J. Daniels, and Miss Mollie Dan iels with Mr. Joe Baum. After these had taken their places lit tle Miss Bonny Bell Evans and Mablc Evans entered with has kets of lovely flowers 011 their arms, and strewing rose leaves iu the pathway of the bride and groom who entered jr.st after them, Mr. Eugene Peel, of Hat teras, and Miss Augusta Laugh inghouse of this place. The oentle rustle of the bridal veil as it mingled with the soft meshes of train, struck an awed silence into the hearts of all present as the couple walked under the bridal arch. The ceremony was solemnly rendered by Rev.G. D. Langston. Then while sweet mu sic stole through the doors and arches, those now joined by the most sacred ties, as man and wife left the church followed by the bridal party. They all re turned to the residence of Dr. F. P. Gates and though the party remained till quite late, there was only a quiet joy mingled with sadness as one turned from the bride on earth to the bride now in heaven, from the home where they were now stopping. The best wishes of all our peo pie go with the happy couple as they go to their home; may peace love and happiness ever attend them. L.

It was a beautiful and gracious tribute which the blind chaplain of the Senate, the Rev. Dr. Mil burn paid to Queen Victoria in his prayer yresterday morning when the Senate convened. In a rich, musical voice he prayed as follows: O thou, who art King of Kings nnflT orrt nf T nrrk w hi p Thee for the long and illustrious reign of Thy servant, the gracious sovereign lady, Queen Victoria, whose conduct and character as daughter, wife, mother, as well as il'ustrious sovereign, have enshrined her in the hearts and reverence of truehearted men and women around the world. Endow her with peace, health, safety, and may her last days be her best and happiest. So endow and guide the councils of that realm and of our own beloved country, that hand in hand they may tread the path of Christian civilization until the Prince of the kings of earth, the first be gotten from the dead, shall be come the monarch of all hearts and all lives in our race. We humbly pray in His sacred name, 1T 1" 1 T t amen. wasnington rost. A Remarkable Woman. Mrs. Einclia White, of Bertie county, is a most remarkable woman?

From Tree to Newspaper. A trial was recently made in Austria to decide in how short a time living trees could be con verted into newspapers. At Elsenthal at 7:35 on the morning three trees were sawn down: at 9:34 the wood, having been strip ped of bark, cut up and convert ed into pulp, became paper and passed from the factory to the press, from whence the first printed and folded copy was issued at 10 o'clock. So that in 145 minutes the tree had become newspapers. Newspaper maker. Whedbee Wants a Job. A special Irom Washington, D. C, says: Senator Pritchard and Congressman Harry Skinner were at the White House Tues day and saw the President in the interest of J.

They made a strong talk for Mr. Whedbee and came away satisfi ed that the President would give careful consideration to the claims of that gentleman. osmg e You naturally lose flesh In the summer and running down is so easy. You get a little weaker each day without hard ly noticing it. There is loss of appetite, headache, weakness of the muscles, disturbed sleep, weakness of memory, and these are the beginning of nervous prostration. Iron and tonics and bitters may afford some temporary relief, but what you need is a food for body, brain and nerves. ScotH trtuf&icrL of Cod-liver Oil with the Hy pophosphites, furnishes just the nourishment needed for those who are run down and pale and thin and weak.

Capital and Labor Turned South ward We shali Dominate the World in a Quarter ot a Centuiy. It matters not what political party is at the helm of the nat ional government, the south will not suffer iu her commercial affairs. Owing to the fact that a i depr SSlOIl Of business in this section would retard the pro gress o! th north, that, of course, would displease the money gods of the country, and, according to the modern politics, their wrath is terrible and must be feared, and though fear respect ed. Outside of politicians and their organs the south is bother ing herself but little about what part- rules the nation, so long as they can control the home affairs, and this she will do un less a serious change takes place that would overthrow the whole country into a desperate revolu tion. This no section of the Union can afford, and for this rea son we have no cause to fear that the republican party will enact any laws that would be detrimental to our interests, in a business way, at least. The south is able and will take care of herself, both politically and commercially, and from the daily reports of new cotton, woolen and dozens of other kinds of factories that are constantly springing up from Virginia to the Rio Grande, we can see that people mean business and do not seek political strife. But capital and labor are now turns ed southward, while our own people are constantly organizing joint stock companies under the cooperative and installment plan, "which are enabling every work ing man to become a stockhold er in some paying enterprise and as there never was a people so thoroughly awakened to their own interest and more willing to help in the advancing of their own country, we may not be surprised in the future at whaN ever may happen to make this country the grandest and most glorious country on God's green earth. Galveston Tribune. LIFT YOUR HAT. An unknown paragrapher pays the welkmerited compliment to the primary school teacher: "Lift your hat reverently when vou pass the teacher ot the pri mary school. She is the great angel of the republic. She takes the bantling fresh from the home nest, full of pouts and passion, an ungovernable little wretch whose own mother honestly ad mits that she sends him to school to get rid of him. This lady who knows her business takes a whole car load of these little anarchists one of whom, singlehanded and alone, is more than a match for his parents, and at once puts them in the way of toil and pas tience and soul weariness. Hers is the most responsible of the whole. school system, and if her salary were double she would not receive more than she earns." m Choirs as Sabbath Breakers. The little Lawrence county town of New Castle, Pa., is much torn up at present by a little war between the churchgoers and the keepers of little shops . On last Monday morning the church peo pie hauled up seventeen keepers of candy and tobacco shops, and had them fined for breaking the Sabbath by keeping open. The merchants paid their fines, and say they will next issue warrants for every paid choir singer in the churches who sing next Sun day. Well for tl19.se who can say, as Pope did in rejoinder to the sar casm ot Lord Henry.J'I think it enough that my parents, such as thev were, never cost me a blush and that their son, such as he is, never cost them a tear. POSTAL FACILITIES IN 1800. A Business Letter's Slow Stages a Century Ago. In 1800 not only was the field of business enterprise restricted, but the transaction of business within that field was slow and difficult, says the Atlantic. The merchants kept his own books, or as we would have said, his own accounts; wrote all letters with a quill and when they were written let the ink dry by sprinkl ing it with sand. There were then no envelopes, no postage stamps, no letter boxes in the streets, no collection of the mail. 1 ne letter written, the paper was carefully folded, sealed with wax or wafer, addressed and car ried to the post offiice where post age was prepaid at rates which would now seem extortionate. To send a letter which was a single sheet of paper, large or small, from Boston to New York or Philadelphia costs 18K and to Washington 25 cents; and this when the purchasing power of a cent was five times what it is at present. To carry a letter from Philadelphia, then the capitol of the United States, to Boston a. id bring back an answer by return mail would have consumed from 12 to 18 days, according to the season of the year and weather. Colleges and Universities. Prof. William T. Harris, United States commissioner ot education, has recently compiled a catalogue of the colleges and universities in the South that is of particular interest just now Ranged accordingly to States the list runs as follows: Alabama 8; Akransas, 5; Florida, 4; Geor gia, 8; Kentucky, 13; Louisiana, 9; Mississippi, 6; Missouri, 27; North Carolina, 11; South Car olina, 8; Tennessee, 22; Texas; 1 1 ; Virginia, 8; West Virginia, 3. Total, 143. To these colleges and universities should be added thirty agricultural and indus trial schools. The total attend ance in all of these institutions now is estimated at 80,000 as against less than 15.000 twenty years ago. No indication could be more encouraging for the future of the South than the steady and rapid growth of our educational instit utions of every sort. It shows that our people are each year coming to appreciate more clear ly the importance of learning in the development of the nation Florida Citizen. To Remove Warts.

How the Judge's Daughter De tained the Young Man. The Judge's daughter was looking just as guileless as it was possible for a girl to look, but then the state of mind of the Judge's daughter cannot always be judged by her looks. "That young man," said the judge, "seemed determined to hang on all night." The judge's daughter merely smiled. "Didn't he hear me stamping up and down hallway" demand ed the judge. "I don't see how he could have helped it." replied the judge's daughter. "But he still hung on," per sistcd the judge. "1 am afraid that was my fault lather, answered the judge's daughter. "But if you will only consent to look at the matter from a legal point of view I think you will agree that I did exactly what was proper." "From a legal point of view!" ejaculated the old gentleman in astonishment. "Certainly," she answered. "Just take the case home to yourself. Suppose you had enters ed into a limited partnership agreement with a man, and you thought you detected a desire on his part to get away in haste. Wouldn't you take out some kind of a writ to stop him?" "Vou mean a writ of ne exeat, I suppose, ""suggested the judge. "Is that the kind of a writ that prevents any one from going away?" inquired the judge's daughter. "That's just what it is." "Then that's what I was think ing of," she said. "He heard you stamping up and down the hall and he betrayed a most extras ordinary desire to get away, but I detained him by a writ of knee ecxat." Chicago Post. THE PATH TO SUCCESS. The way to success in every calling is along the road where the milestones of study are erect ed by our own hands. A close acquaintance with the demand that is to be catered to and a corresponding knowledge of the details of the supply that is to meet it are essential to prosperity. In farming it implies that a man raises the crops best adapted to the soil of his farm. That their rotation is orderly and that the fertility of the land is fully main tained. Iu dairying it means everything that contributes to the comfort and well-being of the herd augmented by.skill in the making of the product, study disciplines the mind to effective thinking saves labor, and saving laboi permits the accomplish ment of larger tasks. This sort of thinking indicates the place where waste can be avoided with out suffering the loss that attends it. Southern Cultivator. There is more Catarrh iu this section of the country then all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was sup posed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro nounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment, Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken in ternally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful.
