Prominent Citizen of Cajy Take. IIL Own Life. Tier. A. D. Hunter, a wtll-kaown Baptist minister of Wake County, committed suicide at his home in Cary Monday morning. HU body was found in the woodbonse back ot his residence at about 12 o'clock. No one suspected that Mr. Hunter contemplated self-destruction. it waa known that he had been greatly depressed for sometime on account of losses incurred in his fight for the Democratic nomination for treas urer in the primaries. It will be remembered that Rev. A. D. Hunter was an opponent of Messrs. L. B. Pegram, B. P. William son and C. E. Crawford, in the fight for the Democratic nomination for County Treasurer. During the fltrht much bitterness was aroused by at tacks or a personal character. Many hard things were said of Mr. Hun ter's private life, and it is known that these attacks caused him a great deal of suffering. Air. Hunter was about fifty-two years old. He was the only son of the late Isaac Hunter, who lived in Wake County, near Holly Springs. For years he has been a Baptist preacher, and at the time of his death was serving several country churches. He was thrice married. His first wife was Miss Emma Gun ter. She left him one daughter.

A Man Aged 105, Dies in Haywood County. News has been received here of the death on Upper Pigeon, Hay wood count, Thursday, November 5th, of "Uncle" Henry Grogan, who passed to rest at the ripe age of al most 105. Had he lived until last Thursday he would have celebrated the 105th anniversary of his birth. Surviving are several children and a number of grand children and great grandchildren.

TIk Ruwni or Charec Anlut Adam Were Published by Other Pap and in 0greioitAl Rec ord Ik-fore The Caucasian pub Ufthed Them. Clinton News-Dispatch. We publUh in another column an account clipped from The Caucasian of the trial of Senator Marion But ler and his brother, Lester F. But ler, in Greensboro, N. C, on Wednes day, November 4th. The public is familiar with the fact, that about two years ago there appeared in kt era! of the State papers, including the News and Observer, the Charlotte Observer and other papers, a news letter from Washington giving an account of charges in Congress and of public rumors of bribes or lm proper conduct of Judge Adams and his court, while passing upon the property rights of the Indians, while the court was in session in Okla homa, We are informed thai papers out West about that time published these same charges. It was not until af ter these rumors and charges were published by other papers, and in the Congressional Record, that The Cau casian published them, so they claim; but for publishing these charges The Caucasian Publishing Company has been sued by Judge Adams for $50,000 for damages for libel, and also Senator Butler and hia brother, Lester F. Butler, have also been sued for a similar sum on account of their connection with that paper. iuct ueieuuania nave niea an- ci iu muse suits ana tne case will probably be tried in the near future on its merits. The defend ants plead that they published the charges after they had been given wide publication by other papers, and they were published in good faith and without malice, believing at the time, and believing now, that said reports .were true. Before these cases could bo tried, Judge Adams sues out a criminal warrant or li bel, and sends to a lawyer in Clinton and had a special Democratic deputy sworn in to serve this indictment and to arrest Senator Butler at his voting precinct on the day of the election. Senator Butler was arrest ed on that warrant as he was going to vote and the officer said his in structions were to allow him no bond. But a bond was promptly pre pared and tendered to this office, Mr. F. B. Hammond, which he ac cepted under the advice of counsel. We understand the same methods were carried out in Raleigh in the arrest of Mr. Lester F. Butler, the officer being directed to accept no bond. This proceeding is remarkable, to say the least. It is all right for Judge Adams to pursue his remedy in the courts and prove his innocence of the charges if he can, and he had his remedy in the civil suits, but to sue out a criminal warrant and have Senator Butler arrested while he was in North Carolina making speeches for the party that Judge Adams claims to be the head of as Chair man, and on the day of election, to have him arrested by a special Dem ocratic officer appointed for that pur pose, thereby ignoring the sheriff, deputy sheriff and the constables of the county, with instructions not to accept bond bul to take and carry bodily to trial, has caused much un favorable comment in this section by everyone, both Democrats and Re publicans. It was needless and un called for, at that particular time, and was planned and carried out in the most objectionable manner. WTe are glad that Judge Adams has de cided to relinquish the Chairman ship of the State Committee. We at least approve of that. So It Goes. The Charlotte Observer wants the next Legislature to give the people of the State local self-government. The Statesville ; Landmark says, "Don't." The Landmark thinks it will bring up the liquor question and thinks we have had enough of such stuff. Whether we shall have liquor or not, is not the only local self-government the people have a right to. The people have voted for prohibition. If they find, after a thorough test, that it is a bad thing, then let the people vote it out. The people have a right to say who their officers shall be and who shall edu cate their children. They have a right to say who shall control coun ty affairs, who shall look after their schools, who shall be justice' of the peace and tax collector. In many places they have not this right. This is what the Observer means, and the folks are with the Observer. Hick ory Mercury. How is Your Digestion? Mrs. Mary Dowllng, of No. 228 Eight Ave., San Francisco, recom mends a remedy for stomach trou ble. She says: "Gratitude for the wonderful effect of Electric Bitters in a case of acute indigestion, prompts this testimonial. I am ful ly convinced that for stomach and liver troubles Electric Bitters Is the best remedy on the market to-day." This great tonic and alterative med icine invigorates the system, puri fies the blood and is especially help ful in all forms of female weak ness. 60c. at all Drug Stores. Gov.

March and April arc th month to market spring chicks to make a food profit. Early chicks grow much letter than the later one, If properly cared for, and give many times tha profit, therefore why sot hare hens which will not only lay in winter hot can be relied upon to hatch chicks for spring market, instead of raising scrubs? if farmers wives would get good winter laying hens, they would find a much easier way to make their pin money, than they are now pursuing, and if more of the boys and girls werencouraged to engage in the poultry business, there would be diminished rush of our young peo ple to cities. A good poultry paper for the children to read, a setting of pure bred eggs to care for, will be the first steps in getting them in terested, and then the fever will grow. MRS. J. C. DEATON. The Future Life in the Country. (From The Progressive Farmer.). Our Home takes occasion to ob serve that travel on the railroads is increasing every year. It is a quick way to go and people do not regard the fare as they did in former days. If by going on train to town a farmer can save half a day's time at home he considers it economy to pay the fare and go by rail. Labor is scarce and high and a man's time must be taken Into account. "Twenty-five years hence," says Our Home, "those who are living will see the develop ment of lnter-urban electric lines that will connect all the principal towns in the Piedmont section of the State. The modern electric cars are provided with telephones so that communication can be had at any point along the line of travel. We think we are living in a tolerably fast age now, but we have just begun to develop." We believe this trans formation will take place In less than twenty-five years, and the farmer is to be the chief beneficiary. Electrici ty will do more than any other agency to add to the comforts of life in the country and the trend of population Is going to be reversed from the old order. It is going to he outward from the towns into the country. Within a decade, life in the country will be all that mortal man could wish for in the way of enjoyment and happi ness. Charlotte Chronicle. Amusing Uses of Words. A colored janitor of Springfield, 111., during a panic, observed: "Use not afraid of de smallpox; Ise been assassinated three times!" On an other occasion he announced proud ly: "My .w.ife had an attack of hiero- glipics last night!" Another negro, congratulating a sable member of the legislature up on his supposed re-election, received "I regret to say, Sambo, that Use been seriously dis-elected." Still another African thus report ed a doctor's diagnosis: "He 'lowd I had a conflagration ob diseases Fust, the salvatin glans don't insist my indigestion, an makes a torpedo liver, so'se I'm liable to go off any minute!" An alderman in a Western city, proud of office, amused everybody by his pompous language. Once impatient because of a delayed train, he exclaimed: "I do wish this road would run on skedaddle time!" Ob jecting j,o baby-carriages on crowded streets, he said: "The sidewalks are for the pedestinarians." He publicly approved of a new street- cleaning. machine because it took up the "micorbs." A self-conceited ignoramus, on be ing asked if he intended giving his emidren academic educations, re plied: "That's the kind of education I got , and if it takes every shilling, my children shall be macadamized as their father was!" Sophie Bron- son Titterington. Medicinal Vegetables. Cranberries correct the liver. Carrots are excellent for gout. Asparagus stimulates the kidneys Watercress is an excellent blood purifier. Honey is a good substitute for cod liver oil. Parsnips possess the same virtues as sarsaparilla. Celery contains sulphur and helps to ward off rheumatism. Beetroot is fattening and good for people who .want to put on flesh. Potatoes are good for torpid liver but should be avoided by gouty people. Lettuce has a soothing effect on the nerves and is excellent for suf ferers from insomnia. The juice of a lemon is excellent for a sore throat, but should not be swallowed, but used as a gargle. Onions are good for the complex ion and also a good nerve tonic- Exchange. Watched Fifteen Years. "For fifteen years I have watched the working of Bucklen's Arnica Salve; and it has never failed to cure any 6ore, boil, ulcer, or burn to which it was applied. It has saved us many a doctor bill," Bays A. F, Hardy, of East Wilton, Maine. 25c, at all Drug Store?. The life of a man as measured against the slow changes of nature makes him appear but one of the more transient of God's creatures, It is well to remember, however, that man is but preparing to live, while other things are spending all their days on earth. Man's real greatness appears when he emerges upon the real life beyond the grave. Here he is "of but few days," but beyond the veil he is Immortal, present. Boston Transcript.
