Wonderful Success of Hyomei in Cur ing Catarrh, Even in Chronic Stages. Hyomei is the most unusual remedy ever known for the cure of catarrh. It follows Nature in her method of treating diseases of the respiratory organs, as its healing balsams are tak en in with the air you breathe, thus reaching the most remote air cells in the nose, throat and lungs, killing all catarrhal germs and preventing their growth. Use Hyomei at the first symptom of catarrh. Do not allow the disease to extend along the delicate mucous mem brane, gradually going from the nose to the throat thence into the bronchial tubes, and then onward and down ward until the lungs are reached. Hy omei will cure all curable forms and stages of catarrh. R. H. Jordan & Co. take the whole risk, and offer to re fund the money fcr a dollar outfit if it fails to cure. Old Lady (who had given the tramp a nickel) "Now what will you do with it?" Hungry Hobo "Waal, you see, mum, ef I buy an auto there ain't enough left to hire a shofur. So I guess I'll git a schooner. I kin han dle that meself." Bohemian. Mrs. De Swell. "Pray don't leave so hastily." Mrs. D Airs "Why, my deah, I observe it's now five minutes aftah foah and I came at foah prompt. The time passed so pleasantly that I didn't know how long I was staying." Boston Record. At any rate when a man is shaking hands with you he can't be picking both your pockets. You can always tell good advice from bad. The good is never given until it is asked for. Some people are so fond of sympa they that they even take a melancholy delight in being the under dog. . RANK FOOLISHNESS. "WThen attacked by a cough or a cold or when your throat is sore, it is rank foolishness to take any other medicine than Dr. King's New Discov ery," says C. O. Eldridge, of Empire, Ga. "I have used New Discovery sev en years and I know it is the best rem edy on earth for coughs and colds, croup, and all throat and lung trou bles. My children are subject to croup. but New Discovery quickly cures every attack." Known the world over as the King of throat and lung remedies. Sold under guarantee at Woodall & Shep pard's drug store, 50c and $1.00. Trial bottle free. IF YOU SUFFER FROM Catarrh My advice is, take Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy and Wash. I was a severe sufferer from ca tarrh of the head and ear. The discharge from the head and ear and nose was copious and very unpleasant. I suffered in that way for five years. I tried va rious treatments, which did me no good. Finally my physician advised me to try Mrs. Joe Per son's Remedy and Wash. I us ed seven bottles of the Remedy and used the Wash with a sy ringe for my nose and throat. It cured me. Scabs would form in my nose, which were almost unendurable, until by constant and hard blowing I would re live myself. It was a fearful af fliction. The cure was perfect, and I have never had any smp tom of return, and my health is fine. (Miss) MOLLIE MILLER. Cornelius, N. C. March 16, 1905. Charlotte Gets the Demo- c r a t i c Convention Continued from page 1 so, be endorsed for vice-president by the committee. The move oi Mr. Scales precipitated a long debate, Mr. J. H. Weddington being one of the first men on his feet to say that lie wished the resolution divided. He wras willing to endorse Mr. Aycock now and might later vote at the state convention to endorse Bryan. Major Hale, of Fayetteville, strongly seconded Mr. Scales' resolution. Many of the speakers expressed surprise over the introduction of the resolution, and thought it beyond the province of the committee, but many of these thought that inasmuch as it had been intro duced it should be passed. Mr. Heriot Clarkson moved as a sub stitute to refer the matter to the state convention. Aycock's Tribute to Bryan. Finally a substitute, introduced by Mr. McMichaei, of Rockingham, was introduced, to the effect that the com mittee deemed it without its province to take action. This was adopted by an aye and nay vote, 41 to 36. Toward the close of the discussion ex-Governor Aycock was recognized and declared that he was in no wise a candidate for vice-president, didn't want the office, but that he would be basely lacking in appreciation if he failed to appreciate the good intentions of his fellow citizens in including an indorsement of him. He asked the con vention to eliminate his name from the resolutions, but to, by all means, now that the resolutions as to Mr. Bryan were before the convention to pass it unanimously. He paid a magni ficent tribute to Mr. Bryan, declaring that he is recognized the world over as the ideal man who has done more for the uplift of the common people than any living man. Great reforms in insurance investigations and con trol of public service corporations and other national reforms he credited to tho effort and fearless assaults of Bryan. He advised his hearers to get ready to sing the old. song. A Tale of Two Cities. Presented to the committee by Mr Clarkson. Mr. J. H. Weddington be gan the fight inside the committee to get the next convention for Charlotte He emphasized the excellent hotel facilities and the splendid new au ditorium. Mr. J. P. Caldwell follow ed with a strong plea, saying that n the convention came to Charlotte this time it would not be another 50 years before it came again. Speakers who argued strongly for Greensboro were Messrs. A. M. Scales, C. O. McMichaei, State Senator Holt and Speaker of the House E. J. Jus tice. The latter concluded all the excellencies of Charlotte but saio Greensboro was the most convenient point for a convention. He estimated that about 60 per cent of the dele gates to the convention will be from territory east of Greensboro and can go there cheaper than to Charlotte and, to go to Charlotte - will tax that part of the democracy east of Greens boro over $13,000 more than to Char lotte and take about a day more. He said that Greensboro also offered a club house for the use of the com mittee and "for other purposes." Mr. W. C. Dowd in expressing his regret that the convention coula not be held in two cities at the same time, suggested that as the last leg islature had reduced the railroad rates in the, state, the cost of to the delegates from the eastern part ot the state would not be so excessive after all. Greensboro has only one line of road while Charlotte has two and there will be just as large a convention in this citv as there would be in the Gate City. Char lotte had nothing to offer for the "other purposes," which Mr. Justice referred to but all trains stopped 15 minutes at Salisbury. This sally pro voked an outbrurst of laughter. Mr. Dowd made the point that Char lotte is the logical point for the con vention, as it is not located in the congressional district of any of the gubernatorial candidates. When the vote was taken Char lotte won by 20 majority. Mr. A. D. Watts for the committee offered a resolution expressive of the appreciation of the services of Messrs J. R. Lewellen, Robert J. Brevard and B. H. Bunn, who have died since the last meeting. Tributes were paid Mr, Lewellen by Mr. Watts anud Mr. B. C. Beckwith,-Mr. Brevard by Mr. Heriot Clarkson, Mr. Bunn by Mr. Henry A. London. Co!. Smith's Packages. Col. A. L. Smith who left Charlotte with Solicitor Heriot Clarkson in ad vance of the regular delegation to settle the compass with its arrow pointing towards Charlotte, is jubilant over the victory. He stepped from the train this morning holding tightly un der his arm a little square package carefully wrapped and tied with sev eral rounds of cord. "What's in that package, colonel?" asked n' News reporter. "This is what delivered the goods," he replied. "It's two pictures of the auditorium, one an interior view and the other an exterior. When we reach ed Raleigh, Clarkson and myself went straight to the Yarbrough Hotel and there, right where everybody who reg istered couldn't help but see, we kept them all day; and right beneath them we had stacked up a pile of Mr. Har ris' sketches of Charlotte. It was this way. I told them we had on the ground our audilorium, a cool place in the summer time, and big enough to seat comfortably everybody who came to the convention. Now, Greensboro's delegates saia tiw c?:y had purchased the mammoth hippodrome at Norfolk. That building is constructed almost en tirely of steel, and if you don't believe it's hot in the summer time, just come and spend a week with me at the compress." Ca?t. Everett For Charlotte. Mr. J. IT. Weddington is enthusiastic over Charlotte's victory. He was ac tive in the campaign both at home and in Raleigh. Being a member of the executive committee he was per sonally acquainted with many of its members and quite a number of them took his good advice and voted for Charlotte. Mr. Weddington said Capt. W. I. Everett, of Rockingham, was conspicuous among those present and that he was a warm supporter for Charlotte. Captain Everett, who is a member of the committee has the dis tinction of being present at the demo cratic convention held in Charlotte 50 years ago, in 1S5S, when John W. El lis w-as nominated for Governor. He is perhaps the only man in North Carolina who was present as a delegate at Charlotte's last democratic con vention, and it is sincerely hoped that he will be able to attend the June convention. Capt. Everett is well- known in this city, and it is the earn est hope of all who do know him that he be present on the coming occa sion. Charlotte's Other Convention. Fifty years ago it was that Char lotte, the "Queen City," even then a place of progress and prosperity en-! tertained the state democratic con - vention, says the Raleigh News and Observer, and the gathering was a lively one, there being a hot fight for the nomination for governor with three candidates in the running. The vigorous contest in that year for the democratic nomination was between Judge John W. Ellis, of Sal isbury, then a superior court judge, and W. W. Holden, editor of the Ral eigh Standard, while there was being also pressed for the place Gen. C. M. Avery, of Burke. After a hot fight in the convention Judge Ellis was nominated, and in the election he de feated Duncan K. McRae, who ran as an independent and who was support ed by the Whig party and by a large number of democrats known as "Dis tribution" democrats who favored the distribution of moneys received from the sale of public lands in the United States among the several states. In sending the convention to Char lotte in 1 858 the democratic state committee broke the precedent of holding it in Raleigh, and it was freely charged by the Holden forces that Charlotte was selected in order to aid Judge Ellis, whose home was in Row an county, and that Holden, whose home was in Raleigh was hurt in his candidacy by the removal of the con vention from Charlotte. The convention met in Charlotte in the court house on Wednesday, the j 14th of April, and it was on Thurs day that the nominations were made. There were in attendance about 500 delegates, the counties not represented were Berties, Colunrbus, Gates, Har nett, Hertford, Hyde, McDowell, Per quimans, Ashe, Camden, Polk, Robe son, Tyrrell and Watauga. The con vention was called to order by Gen. Trollinger, -of Alamance, and Captain John Walker, of Mecklenburg, who acted as temporary chairman. Gen. C. M. Avery, of Burke, was made pres ident of the convention, and there were eight vice presidents, one from each of the eight congressional dis tricts of the state. The secretaries were Col. J. W. Alspaugh, of Forsyth; Mr. George Howard, Jr., of Wilson, and Mr. W. F. Green, of Franklin. The papers of 'that .time report a vigorous contest in the "convention and that Editor Holden tried to invoke a two-thirds rule so as to keep Judge Ellis from the nomination. The ef fort failed and Judge Ellis was nomi nated on the first ballot, it being stated that he was nominated by some 4,000 majority of the votes cast, two coun ties being divided and not voting. From the size of the majority it is evident that the voting strength of the democrats in each county was used in the balloting, and not the number of the delegates. Mr. Corwith Congratulated. The local committe which went to Raleigh passed the following resolu tion while en route on their return from Raleigh: "The committee appointed to go to Raleigh to endeavor to bring the next democratic state convention to Charlotte, desires to extend to Mr. W. T. Corwith, secretary of the Greater Charlotte Club, its sincere thanks for the fidelity and efficiency with which he worked to make Char lotte the gathering place of the democratic hosts. The committee feels that Mr. Corwith contributed in no small degree to the success of the! venture." It is considered? that the previous preparation and preliminary work of the Charlotte committee did the most to get the convention and Mr. Cor with was the leader in this effort. He is fully deserving of such a testi monial as this. Charlotte the Convention City. Preceding the democratic conven tion several other important conven tions will be held in Charlotte, as fol lows: April 22 and 23rd The North Caro lina Press Association. May, date not announced The Southern Newspaper Publishers' As sociation. June 9, 10 and 11th North Caro lina Retail Merchants' Association. June 16, 17, 18 and 19th North Carolina Teachers' Assembly. June 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26th North Carolina Dental Association. Following the democratic conven tion the North Carolina Retail Fur niture Association will meet here in August. Other smaller associations will hold conventions here both priori and after the democratic convention. Charlotte's hotels will amply ac-l commodate all who come to the city. The Selwyn hotel contains 150 rooms, The Buford, 120, the Central, 120, the Leland, 50, the Gem 40, and the Queen City and Charlotte about 25 each. She "I see a good many of the p-irls are taking to the new game of diabolo." He "Yes; girls always like it when they can get something on a Bering. loniveis btatesman. Tommy "Pop, what is anticipa tion?" Tommy's Pop "Anticipation, my son, is the pleasure we get from things that don't exist." Tom "What do you see so attrac tive about that girl?" Dick "Her hair." Tom "I see. Just capillary at traction." Boston Record. To-day's Markets Bache & Co's Cotton Letter. New York, March 12 The market in Liverpool was better but the im provement on this side was small and the advance -not sustained. May and July opened up 6 points and then May sold at 10.70 while July touched 10.48. The rally however, did not hold. No buying came in to sustain! prices and a sagging movement de veloped which carried May to 10.62 and July to 10.43. Reports from the southern mill situation appear to . be more or less conflicting. Reports in Mississippi of curtailment against re ports of mills going on full capacity in Birmingham and vicinity. The sit uation is looked upon as generally un favorable however. In the meantime the market is narrowing down with no' tendency in either direction to a great! !extent - Thls lnertia w believe indi- cates lower markets later on. J .S. BACHE & CO. Hayward and Clark's Cotton Letter. New Orleans, La., March 12. Firm er futures at Liverpool being two to 3 higher instead of 3 off as due and anticipation of bullish statistical com parisons tomorrow and prospects for a demand for good grades to fill March commitments sustaining spot values, induces some buying here this morn ing caused some advance in a narrow market. However, there was not much confidence displayed as the small sales in the English market on a Thursday total seven thousand were not an encouraging item and press news about trade condition continues very discouraging. Weather indica tions continue good. The map shows generally fair weather except cloudy in the eatern quorter. Generally fair and warmer is predicted. Excepting some heavy rains in North Carolina and Tennessee showers were scatter ed and light. Reports from southwest Texas say that most of the cotton is planted and conditions are promising. It is very difficult to report on the spot market because of the absence of coherent demand. For hours there is nothing doing, then all at once an exporter who has some March ship ments to make, takes some lists in order to get the good cotton out of them that he needs. There is no gen eral flowing business and lower graes as well as off cotton of every descrip tion are mostly entirely neglected. As the present demand is for good grades they become relatively dearer and a petition has been made to the grade revision comittee to raise the prem ium on the upper grades. This will be decided this afternoon. HARDWARD & CLARK. Morehead & Co.'s Letter. New York, March 12. Cables came better than expected but spot business over there was some better; there was not full response on this side to the strength abroad. Over night no important developments came and while the market was steady after the opening it lacked snap and the big operators seemed indisposed to buy. Spot news unfavorable but there is no weakening on the part of the mass of holders, and with the first bad news regarding a new crop or an improve- menc in demand higher prices will pre vail.
