CHARLOTTE NEWS, MARCH 17, 1905. THE CHARLOTTE NEWS Published Daily (Except. Sunday) NEWS PUBLISHING CO. W. C. DOWD Pres. and Gen. Mgr. GEO. W. BRUNSON, JR Editor C. A.

And the Russians "continue to retire in excellent order." Wonder if General Kuropatkki is retreating in his automobile. If the Senate keeps on hammering at the Santo Domingo treaty it will knook off the lid. Since Sully returned to the market the bears seem to be having a hard breathing spell. Russia would feel her defeat in Paris much worse than the defeat in Man churia. Texas has classified the Japanese with the Chinese. Look out or we may have trouble on our hands. An invasion of the United States by Venezuela is the next chapter to be handled, by the historians. If the Czar would really like to get rid of some of the Grand Dukes he should send them out for a carriage ride. Mrs. Chadwick wept bitterly when she entered her home. Tears on an occasion of that kind might be over looked. The Russians in Manchuria don't have to wait until the first of the month, every day is moving day with them. They have succeeded at last, and Governor Adams, Democrat, is pushed out of the Colorado gubernatorial chair. , The government conscience fund is growing, which only goes "to show that the public conscience is not dead by any means. The more the world sees of Nogi and his strategy the more he is likened unto Stonewall Jackson, the immortal Southern leader. The present weather which is smil ing so pleasantly on Charlotte must have been made to order, thanks to the local forecaster. Not that France loves peace more but because she values her Russian loans best, is the reason for her will ingness to end the war. It begins to look as if the Japs are not going to allow the Russians to light. Somebody is going to get tired after awhile. If Colorado keep up the record of yesterday, gubernatorial honors will go a heap further and give new -ope for the ambitious politicians. Begin to lay aside your earnings to pay for the Easter bonnet which your wife will buy. Many a man is glad that Easter comes late this year. Not satisfied with clipping both wings so he can't fly, the Japanese are now trying to kick Kuropatkin's army to death. Those naughty Japs. Colorado seems the least bit hard to please, three governors in one .lay. As well as we remember, that is ihe record for rapid succession in office. During the past week twenty mil lion eggs have been received on the New York market. The patriotism of the American hen seems to have no limit. The Russian generals under Kuropat kin are begging the Czar not to yield to the entreaties for peace. Give it to 'em, Oyama, they'll get enough of it after awhile. Wonder if Mrs. Chadwick resorted to weeping in order to carry out some of her money-getting schemes. The tears seem to be very near the sur face. The very first day of Dan Sully's ap pearance on he floor of the New York Cotton Exchange the price of the sta ple advanced a dollar a bale, and he wasn't even in the market. The two oceans will be brought ap preciably closer to each other if the new locomotives which the Southern Pacific has ordered, with guaranteed speed of 100 miles an hour, prove a success. Castro, President of the Venezuelan republic, is thinking of sending an army of thirty thousand men. to invade the Mississippi valley to avenge the grievances which he holds against the United States. Poor fellow, his mind is wandering and his powers of rea- b9U -baye decried, Mvu , . . IMPROVED BUSINESS CONDITIONS All branches of the iron and steel industry in this country are enjoying better business now than at any time in several years. Nearly all have been obliged to increase their output during the past two or three t months and many of the big plants have all Che orders they can fill for a year. It i3 gratifying to note this improvement in an industry that has been lying dor mant and, for a great part of the tie. almost inactive through the period of one or two years just passed. Plants which have been shut down for some time have resumed operations and the indication is that the boom in business will not diminish for some time to come, if not continued indefinitely. Another hopeful and encouraging sign is the fact that several of the larger steel and iron plants have advanced the labor wage scale to where it was when the slump in business came about two years ago. Many of the manufacturing establishments have been forced to run at nfght to keep up' with the orders. Seeing the great in crease in business in the steel and iron industries, the railroads hare lost no time in trying to equip themselves for the handling of the multiplied out put. The larger transportation com panies have awarded contracts for en gines, cars, etc., aggregating two hun dred million dollars. The car and lo comotive builders as a result of these orders will have all they can stand up under for the next twelve or fifteen months. Much of the foreign business which has been handled in this coun try in the past has been declined on account of the enormous rush at home. Increased business in the steel and iron industries means larger volumes of trade in other branches of business and is a true indication of the healthy con dition of the times in the United States. r CHANGE DATE OF INAUGURATION The death of - Senator Bate, who is supposed to have contracted he fatal illness in the inaugural exercises on March 4th, has revived the old question of fixing a later day for the inaugura tion of the President. Once before the matter was thoroughly considered and it appeared at the time that both branches of Congress seemed to be in favor of making the change,, but the failure of a committee to report caused a side tracking of the measure and nothing was done in the end. It is pro posed to defer the time of the inaugu ration to the latter part of April. The change is desired solely on account of the weather, as the 4th of March comes at a time of year when weather con ditions are always uncertain and usual ly unfavorable for outdoor exercises such as the Presidential inauguration requires. The News can see no reason for not changing the date to April, and on the other hand, it appears reason able that the change should be made for the very reason already stated. April is always a v ery pleasant month and good weather can usually be count ed on. And then, we have never heard any . reason why the 4th of March should have been selected as the time of the inauguration any more than the fourth of April or the fourth of May. It was a date selected years ago and there has been no departure from it since that time. That is all. FIRE INSURANCE IN KANSAS. On account of legislation which they denounce as iniquitous, all the fire in surance companies doing business in the State of Kansas have decided to withdraw at once and no longer do business in that State. This is an an nouncement of rather startling nature, the final outcome of which will be watched with considerable interest. The trouble was caused by the enactment of certain laws affecting the fire in surance companies. If the companies carry out their declaration to withdraw their business the situation will be acute and it will be up to the business people of Kansas to assume the risk3. They will nok doubt be able to carry ail the insurance which the foreign companies have been carrying. But we have our doubts about the companies deserting the field. While the new iaws governing them may be too severe irom the standpoint of insurance people, it ( is to be doubted if they will carry out their avowed intentions. We- will wait and see. MR. CARNEGIE'S GENEROSITY. The announcement contained in The News this afternoon that Mr. Andrew Carnegie has donated to Charlotte ?10, 000 for a new assembly room at the Carnegie Library will be welcomed by every citizen of Mecklenburg-county. The additional gift from the great .philanthropist was secured solely through the efforts of Capt. Thos., S. Franklin, one of Charlotte's mosi valued and public spirited men. The need for a new assembly room at the Library has been felt for some time, and (he whole, community feels deeply grateful to Mr. Carnegie for his con tinued generosity and friendliness to this city. Fashionable women have taken up the fad of wearing imitation jewelry. In many cases the bogus gems are so good as to deceive all but the expert. This is merely an incident, though doubtless the possession of such adorn- NOT A PATENT MEDICINE. Hyomei, the Guaanteed Catarrh Cure, Prescribed by Physicians. No one should confound Hyomei with the patent medicines that are advertised to cure catarrh. It is as far superior to them all as the dia mond is more valuable than the cheap glass. Their composition is secret, but Hyomei gives its formula to all reputable physisians. Its base is the valuable eucalyptus oil, famous for its antiseptic qualities. This is combined with aromatic and healing gums and balsams, making a pure liquid, which when used in the Hyomei pocket inhaler, fills the air you breathe with germ-killing, disease-destroying and healing powers that kills all catarrhal germs there may be in the throat, nose and lungs. How foolish it is to try and cure catarrh by swallowing tablets or liquids. The only natural way to cure this disease and all other diseases of the respiratory organs is to breathe Hyomei. This treatment has been so success ful, curing 99 per cent.- of all who have used it, that Hyomei is now sold by R.'H. Jordan & Co., under an absolute guarantee to refund the money if it does hot cure. You run no risk whatever in buying Hyomei. If it did not possess unusual powers to cure, it could not be sold upon this plan. The complete Hyomei outfit ' costs $1.00 and comprises an inhaler, a bottle of Hyomei and a dropper. The inhaler will last a lifetime; and ad ditional bottles of Hyomei can be ob tained for 50 cents. One of the French submarine boats has made a record for herself by stay ing under water twelve hours. During this period all the machinery worked perfectly, and the crew suffered from nothing. $100 Reward $100 The readers of this paper will he pleased to earn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure ntw known to the med ical fraternity. Catarrh, being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure . Send for list of testimonials . Address F. C.

Large deposits of graphite are also being exploited in Siberia, chiefly in the neighborhood of Irktusk, on Lake Baikal. Burnett's Extract of Vanilla Is the best, perfectly pure, highly concentrated. The oldest criminal ever sentenced to prison in a Philadelphia court is F. Gustave Miller, aged 86, who has just been convicted on three bills of indict ment of reciving stolen goods and sen ence was imposed by Judge Biddle, himself an octogenarian. Society in Washington seems deter mined to introduce "the ' Continental Sunday," and ministers and laymen are struggling against the movement. Sun day dinners are becoming more and more popular, and there are Sunday theater parties for evening concerts, followed by gay supper gatherings. HE MEANS SCOTT'S Your doctor says you must take cod liver oil. Probably he means Scott's Emulsion be cause you cannot take the clear oil; no one can take the clear oil who needs cod liver oil. The doctor understands that and doubtless means Scott's Emulsion of cod liver oil which everybody can take because it is emulsified and prepared so that it can be veryeasily digested by the most sensitive stomach. Most everybody likes it. , 'W'e'll send you a sample free. SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl Street, New York.
