ft STEAMER ON FIRE.
The Thirty one Passengers
Were Kept in Ignorance of
The Dangar.
RUN 60 MILES
WITH CARGO ABLAZF.
The Steamer Landed at Norfolk
and the Fire Department
Put Out the Flames.
The Merchants' and Mineis'
steamer Gloucester arrived at
Norfolk, Va.; last Sunday morn
iug about 5 o'clock, after an ex
citing sixty mile run with part
of her cargo ablaze.
" The fire was first discovered
about 1 o'clock Sunday morning,
when the ship was off Hog Is
land, the smoke of burning ex
celsior being detected by those
in the engine room.
An investigation was immedi
ately made and the fire was dis
covered in the hold of the vess
sel under the forward hatch,
deep down among innumerable
bales of excelsior and leather.
It was blazing fiercely and fil
ling the hold with smoke.
The instant it was discovered
that the flames could not be ex
tinguished by ordinary means,
captain Howes ordered steam
turned on the cargo and had the
ship's speed increased to her cas
pacity. j
There were 31 passengers
aboard, but such coolness and
caution were exercised by the
captain and his officers that not
one of them knew there was
anything the matter until they
reached Noriolk, aud some of
them do not know even now.
About 8 oc'iock, after it was
found that the fire was too stub
born to be handled successfully
by the crew, the Norfolk Fire
Department was notified, aud by
11 o'clock Chief Ryan had put
the flames out, using six tanks
of the chemical engine to do it.
It is impossible to state the
loss but it will probably be
large, as much valuable leather
and many cases of shoes were
ruined, to say nothing of the
quantity of excelsior.
How to Cure Bilious Colic.
I suffered for Weeks with colic
and pains in my stomach caused
by biliousness and had to take
medicine all the while until I
used Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
which cured me. I have since
recommended it to a good many
people. Mrs. F. Butler, Fair

subiect to bilious colic can ward
off the attack by taking this

INDICTED
FOR PASSES
TO
EDITORS.
Judge Ewert, of the Circuit
Court at Asheville, N. C, has
ordered the solicitor to prepare
indictments against the South
ern Railroad for issuing passes
to editors, newspaper managers
and others not actually employed
hv the railroad. The action is
brought to test the State law
no-ninst the issuance of free
passes, the penalty for which
under the North Carolina Stat
utes, is a fine of not less than
$1,000 nor more than $5,000 for
each offense. The case will at
tract national interest as no
tate Suoreme Court has ever
passed upon the construction o

law on this point.
Digging Fishes With a Hoe.
The Memphis Commercial
Appeal says : "The following is
vouched for by F. Makett, who
lives in Leflore county, Miss,
near Cane Lake : Mr. Makett
went out a fewr moruiugs ago to
a marshy place that had dried
out on accouut of the continued
dry weather, to dig fish bait,
and while digging with a grub
hoc, to his great surprise, instead
ot finding fish bait, he dug up a
fine fish that weighed three
pounds, and upon examination
he found that in the mud around
there was a great quantity of
trout, white perch and bass.
Mr. Makett carried home a half
bushel .of the fish, and now, in
stead of digging bait he goes out
every morning and digs a mess
of fine bass. The fish are un
der the surface about ten inches."
VAN VVYC'KS SOUTHERN
BLOOD.
His Mother was a South Caro
linian and He Formerly Lived
in the Palmetto State.
People of .South Carolina ha e
watched the municipal contest
in New York with more than
ordinary interest, owing to the
fact that the man who has been
elected Mayor formerly lived in
that State.
An aged ladv, well versed in
family histories, gives this state
ment of his family: Robert A.
Van VVyck spent the early pait
ofhis iile in Pendleton, S. C.
lie has one br6ther, Augustus,
who is living in New York.
Samuel, another brother, wis
killed early in the war in the
northern part of Alabama. This
brother was a Confederate sol
dier, and his children live 111
Anderson, S. C. The remain
g brother, William, died in
New York. Mayor-elect Van
Wyck's sister is the wife of Gen
eral Hoke, of North Carolina.
The lather of this family was
rom New rork. The mother
was the daughter of Mr. Samuel
Maverick who lived and died
Pendleton. Mr. Maverick
was the owner of more real es
tate than any other man in the
State. His possessions lay in
South Carolina, New York and
Texas.
One of Mr. Maverick's sons,
Augustus,, went to Texas and
vvas engaged in the war between
the Texas republic and Mexico.
His home was at San Antonio,
where his desceudents still live.
He was associated with Crockett,
and barely escaped the massacre
at the Alamo. At his death he
owi.ed more land iu Texas than
is in the State of South Caro-
iua, and his cattle were so nu
merous that it was impractica
ble to brand them. The "no
brand" was the mark of his
ownership, so that to this day
unbianded cattle in Texas are
called Mavericks.
At one time the Van Wyck
family brought to Pendleton
Walter Gibson as a carriage dri
ver. Gibson married a Miss
Lewis and gave up driving.
Then he wandered awav to the
Sandwich Islands and eventu
ally became practically the die
tator of the islands, hie was
Prime Minister under the inon
archy there.

Au Assistant Postmaster Arrested
For Robbing the Mail.
IN BERTIE COUNTY, N. C.
He is a Brother of the Negro
Postmistress at Powellsville.
Recently quite a number of
letters inailed at hxter, Rose
mead and Powellsville postoffices
located on a star route in Bertie
county, North Carolina, haw
fiilecTto reach their destination.
On different occasions, some of
these letters have boen found in
the roads about Powellsville, the
letters having been torn open
and enclosures missing, some of
the letters having contained
checks, drafts, money orders,
money, postage stamps, Sec. On
Thursday, November 4, Post
office Inspector H. T. Gregory
began an investigation, which
resulted on Friday in his taking
into custody Luther A. Wynn,
assistant postmaster at Powells
ville, for the embezzlement of
valuable letters, the money from
two letters being found on his
person.
On August 12, 1897, Gaston
Morris was succeeded as post
master at Powellsville by Emma
Wynn, a young negro woman,
who appointed her brother
Luther assistant postmaster,
who, since being placed in the
postoffice. continued to perform
the duties of the office, being
alone in the office a good por
tion of the time during the tem
porary absence ot his sister.
Wynn was carried before U.
S. Commissioner Joseph M. Sits
terson, at Williamston, on Fri
day night. He plead guilty to
the charge and was committed
to jail in default ot bail to await
trial in the United States court
at Raleigh on December 7th.
Musn't Kill the Neighbor's
Chickens.
Quite a peculiar and amusing
case is published in the last
volume of the North Carolina
Supreme Court Reports. It is
an indictment against a man for
"cruelty to animals" for killing
his neighbor's chickens which
were in his garden scratching
up his peas. The desendant was
convicted before a justice of the
peace, and on appeal to the
Superior Court was convicted
there, and on appeal to the Su
preme Court his conviction was

that he was fighting mad. The
opinion of the Supreme Court,
liv-rpd bv Tudee Clark, is
. . J S '
auite a lonp- and able one, as well
as humorous. The court declares
that a man has no more right to
kill his neighbor's chickens,
which are scratching up his
garden, than he has to kill Ins
cattle that might be trespassing
in his field. His only remedy is

HICKS FOR NOVEMBER.
The ' Celebrated Weather Pro
phet's Forecasts for This
Month.
The month enters warmer,
with return of storm conditions
aud rain, turning to sleet and
snow far north, will transpire
over much of the country from
1 st to 3d. It will be much cool
er about 3d to 6th, after which
it will grow warmer, and regular
low barometer, leading to active
storms, will pass over the conti
nentfrom 7th to loth. Barometer
will rise, and cold northerly
gales will follow behind the
low atmospheric area. Danger
ous disturbances or about the
seas and lakes will be natural at
this time and at other periods
of the month. The 13th and 14th
comprise a reactionary center of
higher temperature, low pressure
and storms. The 18th to 21st is
a regular storm period, at the
close of which expect change to
much colder. The 24th to 26th,
inclusive, is a reactionary center
at a critical conjunction of storm
causes. Gales, blizzards and cold
wave following. Month ends
with stcrm brewing.
TO JUMP NIAGARA.
This Feat Will be Attempted
With the Aid of a Para
chute. George W. Potter, who is con
nected with the Buffalo (N. Y.)
Express, and is widely known as
a political stump speaker, is
planning the most daring feat of
the century. He will float in a
small boat to the very edge of
the falls, leap from it as it rushes
over the piecipice of seething
waters, extend at the same time
a large parachute, and hang
suspended in the thick mist bes
ow if he has not been dashed
to pieces or drowned.
The boat is being built by
George L. Weeks, the yacht
builder of Seaford, L. I. "Potter"
he said, "placed the order with
me about a month ago. The
boat will be eighteen feet long,
two feet ten inches wide and ten
inches deep. Iu shape it will be
like the ordinary catboat, practi
cally all deck, with the exception
of the manhole, which will be
two feet six inches wide and ten
inches deep. Potter will stand
,i . 1 : t.
on tins, nrnny grasping ins
parachute, and ready to leap the
moment the boat takes its heads
er into the falls. An important
feature of the boat will be the
fin. It will be six inches deep
auiidship and will keep the
boat in a straight course while
rushintr through the riotous
r n
waters at the head of the falls.
The contract calls for the com
pletion of the boat by April ist
next."
After....
Taking
a course of Ayer's Pills the
system is set in good working
order and a man begins to feel
that life is worth living. He
who has become the gradual
prey of constipation, does not
realize the friction under which
he labors, until the burden is
lifted from him. Then his
mountains sink into mole
hills, his moroseness gives
place to jollity, he is a happy
man again. If life, does not
seem worth living to you, you
may take a very different view
of it after taking
Aver's Cathartic Pills.
WEDDED IN A LION'S DEN.
A Novel Method of Tying
Nuptial Knot.
the
Five thousand people in the
Zoological Garden at Boston at
9 o'clock last Friday night wit
nessed the most unique and
startling wedding ou record.
A handsome young couple
were married in a den of feroci
ous lions. Four clergymen were
in attendance to guard against
the possible contingency of the
postponement of the ceremony
in case the animals devoured one
of the reverend gentlemen. Mr.
Arthur C. St. Andrassy, a well-
known New York musician, W2.I
the groom, and Miss Charlotte
Wiberg, a beautiful 20-year old
Boston girl, was the bride.
Although the spectators were
wrought up to the highest pitch
of excitement, and the bride auu
groom were very ncrvious at
the deep, menacing roars of the
beasts, which shook the great
hall, the event passed off happily
aud without incident.
The ceremony was performed
by Rev. George Readei, of Ohio,
There has been a big sensation
in rf1 Irrirmc r1 rc nnor tlml
wedding, and, as a resnlt, Rev.
Mr. Thurston who originally
contracted to officiate, backed
out at the last moment, owing
to the objectious raised by his
brother clergymen, He furnish
ed a substitute, however, in the
person of the Ohio minister, and
was himself on hand in case Mr.
Reader backed out at the last
minute or was eaten up before
he had t ed the knot. It was a
most remarkable spectacle.
At 9 o'clock the wedding
procession entered, headed by a
quartet of giant lion-tamers,
armed to the teeth. Percy Coop
er's boy choir followed, chanting
a processional. Then came the
bride and groom, attended by
two pretty little pages. The drop
of a pin could be heard, and all
held their breath as the clank of
the grated door sounded and
the trembling couple entered the
cage.
The trainer, with weapons
ready, watched the snarling
beasts, Caesar and Cleopatra, as
they gazed with yawning jaws
upon the fair bride.
In a few moments it was all
safely over, and the first couple
ever married in a lion's den were
pronounced man and wife.
The couple had been engaged
several months. The managers
of the "Zoo" advertised for
couple who would be willing to
be married with a lion and lion
ess to act in the capacity ot
best man and bridesmaid. The
consideration offered was a hand
some weddine present and an
elaborate ceremony.
St Andrassy, who was iu Bos
ton visiting his fiance, saw the
advertisement, aud. being of a
romantic nature, the idea appeal
ed to him.
"The worst cold I ever had in
my life was cured by Chambers
Iain's Cough Remedy," writes
W. H. Norton, or Sutter Creek,
Cal. "This cold left me with a
cough and I was expectorating
all the time. The Remedy cured
me, aud I want all of my friends
when troubled with a cough or
cold to use it, for it will do them
good." Sold by W. W. Griggs
