The sugar-coating, which makes Ayer's Pills so easy to take, dissolves immediately on reaching the stom ach, and so permits the full strength ana benefit of the medicine to be promptly communicated.

FIGURE HEAD AT" WORK, A Caucus Held In the Court House Blonday-It V.'as Strietty Private Chairman Jake Hotter,- Another . Republican and To Populists In Conference. What the meaning of the close consultation witnin the confines of the court house walla on Monday afternoon is, can beimagined when when it is known that Jake Boger, the leading light of the Republicans of Cabarrus, a prominent State Re publican and two figure-beads in Cabarrus Populism held a caucus. The meeting lasted for probably an hour.and was of a very quiet order,al though considerable work must have been transacted, an one anion? the big four left Monday night for Winston, where it is supposed he went to rerort to Chairman Holton, of the State Republicans, the result and progress of the meeting. A Standard reporter tackled one of the big four, but no information concerning what transpired in the caucus could be learned. It is . very evident, however, that fusion was decided upon and that work of a secret order in organizing will now begin. Bis "Oregon" Kan Away. Late Saturday afternoon Messrs C E Stratford and Will Goldston were driving the former's "Oregon" to a cart. The animal became fretful and dashed against an electric light pole on North Spring street, throwing the two occupants out; They were uninjured. After cutting up a few capers peculiar to that breed, the horse became manageable. Reformed People In Jail. It was clever in the Christian En deavor Society of the Reformed church to hold their Ben ice Sunday afternoon in the jail, rather than in their cozy little church just across the way. The service was Jead by Rev. B F Davis, the Reformed pas tor. This little band of Christian workers are endeavoring to do good, and their visit to those hedged in jail may result in the saving of some poor soul from an everlasting eter nity. Ko Decision Filed. Rev. J Rumple, D. D., returned Saturday night from Statesyille. There he attended a meeting of the board of trustees of female education of Mecklenburg and Concord Pres byteries. The meeting was for the purpose of taking steps in the direc toin of purchasing grounds and hav ing a college for young ladies built. No decision was reached at this meeting and another one will be held in Charlotte in March at which time steps will be taken tow aid the erection of this college and probably a decision hied. Salisbury World. Trapped, butUot Aawjr. "Some folks Bay that a negro wont steal," but in the case of Joe Hen derson, who was, up to laBt Thurs day hanging around China Grove, there is an exception. - Ou seyeral occasions Joe visited tbe store of Mr. C J Deal, at thu place, and sold corn. He being a strange ne gro, suspicion was aroused and tne negro watched. We'd esday night he went to the crib of Mrs. Torrence, drew the staple and stole seyeral bushels of corn and took it to Mr. Deal's store next morning and offer ed it for sale. The theft was traced to Joe, and accordingly papers were sworn out and turned oyer to W M Leazer, who with Lee Bolin and John Brown put off after the negro. Leazer held the papers, Browj the horses and Bolin attempted to hold the thief, but before Leazer could reach the negro to serve the warrant the surly fellow became euspicious and tore himself awov from Bolin and made his escape. Another Manufactory. Messrs. G W and Claude Dry, proprietors of the North Carolina Washboard Manufacturing Com pany, at Dry's Mill, No. 7 township, and brothers to Mr. C A Dry, of this city, are in the city with a view to purchasing a site for tbe removal of their immense business to this city. It is quite probable that they will occupy a part of the old fair ground near the big well on the lower side. Seeking as they are a place to lo cate, there is no better place than Concord, the manufacturing city of the Old North State, and the Messrs. Dry, as all others who come among us, will find a hearty welcome for them. Since tbe above was put in type, it has been learned that the plant will not be brought to this city at present, the Messrs. Dry having de cided that to move now it would in terfere with arrangements al ready made, although they admitted the belief that should they come it would be advantageous to their busi ness. V he Famous Cartoonist Dead Cahajohaeie, N.

The much discussed case of A A Latta, charged with ihe burning of T H Martin's prize house, and. the implication of Mr. Martin, as access ory before the fire, has been termi nated in the grand jury room. The best information we can get in regard to the matter is that the Solicitor drew a bill against A A Latta and T H Martin for the burn ing of Martin's five story brick to bacco warehouse in October last Latta was charged with the actual burning and Martin with being ac cessory before the Durning. ine bill wa sent to the jury about 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Yes terday evening about 4 o'clock the bill was returned in court endorsed, "Not a true bill." . As eoon as this information came out it created a great deal of com- ment, and all sorts of talk was in. dnlged in, both favorable and an fayorable, as to the result. It was a caBe in which great interest was manifested, and a great many of our people are rejoicing in the fact that such a grave charge against one of our most highly esteemed citizens is thus brought to naught Durham Sun. Register bamsey Sued. On the 16th of December Register Ramsey issued a marriage license to Mahlon Brannon and Ida Reavis, of Yadkin c aunty. It was to have been a runaway match but Mr. Reavis read in The Landmark that the license had been issued in this county and succeeded in preventing the marriage. Miss Reavis is un der 18 and her father then brought suit against Register Ramsey for $200 penalty for issuing a license for the marriage of a girl under 18. The suit was bi ought before Justice Cain, in Eagle Mills township, Mr. T U Phillips, of Tadkinville, ap pearing for Mr, Reavis. Wednesday was the day set for the trial and the register was on band with his attor ney, Mr. L C Caldwell. Brannon, who bought the license, had been summoned as a witness for the Rea vis, and being apprised of this fact Messts. Caldwell and Ramsey took along a State warrant for him .for vrocuring license under false pre tense, he having represented that Miss Reavis was 17 years old; and also a claim and delivery for the li cense. As soon as Brannon arrived at the trial this warrant and the claim and delivery were served on him. He demanded a trial but coun sel for defence demanded that the trial take place before Justice LewiB in Statesville, where the warrant was issued. Brannon didn't fancy this and proposed to surrender the icense, which he had in his pocket This was agreed to and then Mr. Reavis took a non-suit and the whole matter ended. Register Ramsey, however, will be on his guard hereafter, and if anybody wants a license for a girl under 18 he will have to show the written consent of her parents or eo elsewhere- btatesvule landmark Benevolence Among; tbe Ladles.

There is a large drove of hound dogs in tbe lower end of town and just beyond tbe corporate limits in the neighborhood of Swink's slanghter pen that have been doing considerable deyilment within the past few weeks. They are of the half-starved specie of hound that invade the country, rob slop barrels, soap grease tuba, poultry yards, etc. Tbe scraps at the slaughter pen have been in sufficient to feed them, heuce tbey pounced upon a 200 pound hog, killed it and eat it entirely pp. This happened last .week. On Sunday the'dogs fell upon another swine and eat Out a hindquarter, leaying the hog in Buch a condition that it will die. :. IA Som Something should be done to proV the bog-raiaen from such rajdf 'e worthleja bounfls, ' .7 oltion o'f-si Plumber nkVrrr. - St. Peter's Hospital Run Down by a Car In the Train yard, J L Reed, a plumber,' who arrived here Saturday from Lynchbnig, in search of work, is hmg at 1st Peter's Hospital with jTfil " ne lefc and one foot futated. He was run over by a car in the train yard in the Soathern station, about 1 o'clock Saturday night. There is scarcely an hour, day or night, that passenger and.freight trains are not being shifted over the net work of tracks between Tryon and Fifth streets, but despite the danger, a good many people persist in using the tracks as a sideway. Saturday night, Mr. Reed, in company with Mr. J L Shaner was walking along the tracks when they were struck by the rear car of a train that was bo il g shifted. Mr. Shaner was knocked clear of the track and es caped injury, but his companion was not so lucky. He fell between the rails, and the wheels of one truck passed over bim. Both of his hands were mashed off, one leg was cut off below the knee and one foot crushed to pieces. The injured man was taken to St Peter's Hospital, where surgeons were soon in attendance. It was found necessary to amputate one .loot, and one leg below the knee, and also both arms below the elbow. The unfortunate man stood the operation well and quickly rallied from the shock, Tbe sur geons to-day say that there are in dications that Reed will recover. Charlotte News. They Are Married. It wis announced through The 8iandaed seyeral days ago that there would be a wedding at Mt Pleasant real soon. At that time the marriage bad already taken place. On Thnrsday night last at the home of Rev. J Q Wertz, of St John's, Mr Will N Misenheimer was married to Miss Sallie McAllister, The affair was a quiet and surpris ing one. They have the best wishes of their many friends throughout the county. Boston Will Probably Train Here. Parties in this city are negotiating with the manager of tbe Boston baseball team offering inducements for them to train here for the com ing season. It is a probability that they will come, although ic won't do to base any hope on anything of so donbtf ul a nature. Mr. J 0 Wads worth is endeavor ing to get them here and if they ac cept his proposition- a part of the fair grounds will be converted into a baseball park. A grand stand anp bleachers will be put np and every thing made convenient for the puba lie as well as the players. He Was Overworked. One occasionally reads of persons who die from overwork work themselves to death but not much credence is generally placed in the statements. The majority of people will acknowledge the possibility of such oases, but Iregard them as hardly probable. Those who are familiar with the life of Mr. W T Thomason, who died at Zeb Thursday morning, would say, if asked what was the cause Zot his death, that it was brought about by overwork. And they would not be far wrong. It is true that Mr. Thomason died from pneumonia, but it is none the less true that exposure at his work caused the disease to be contracted, and it is further true that if his naturally strong constitution had not been c weakened by the great strain put upon it he would have been better able to have fought the sickness and might have been suc cessful. Not a man in Rowan county work ed haider, and a few as hard as Mr. Thomason. As a butcher,- which he followed several years, he was in Salisbury before day in . the morn ing, frequently remaining until late at night, and no kind of weather stopped him. Besides the selling of beef his fruit, melon and vegetable, business was fully as taxing to his strength. He would make as many as four trips a day from his farm here, being in town with the early morning sun and often not leaving until the crowing of the midnight cock. No one ever saw him loafing or standing on the street corners. It was work and business with him alwajs. ; " - Work and hard work was his de light, it seemed,- but bis energy and will were neater than his physical strength and undermined bis health- His case refutes the argument of the doubters as to overworked men for the possibility is a probability. Salisbury Herald. Beats Jules Verne All Hollow. "My watch had dropped into the sea. We were in Greenland at the time. I dived and recovered my fwatcb, but the ice bad closed up again.

One good lady said that she was glad that every member of her family bad had the measles except nine. Uncle John predicts more wed dings soon, and giyes as his reason for belieying such is that he knows of three young boys who have just donned long breeches, w hich is a sure sign of matrimony. Heme on a Visit, The Standard had three very pleasant callers this (Wednesday) morning.

As an eyidence of this city being wide-awake and ever open to trade and traders, there are only eight horse drovers now " here five at Corl's, one at Brown Bros, and two in the back lots. There are nearly a half thousand horses andmules in town, outside of the regular supply of the liverymen. There is no rea son why a man should not have a horse or mule if he wants one, for they are going for a song Every thing is full up. Holding a Suspected Coon. It will be remembered that several months ago,' Mr. M L Sherrill, at that time a resident of this city and a writing master, visited Salisbury on a certain occasion and while there was drugged and "touched" to the tune of $40 and a watch. Chief of Police John A Murphy, of Salisbury, writes to Chief Boger to inform Mr. Sherrill that he (Murphy) is holding tbe suspected man, and for him to come at once. Mr. Sherrill is now teaching shool in Iredell or Rowan county. Emperor William Condemned. Cape Towx, Jan. 21.

Ten Thousand, More or Less. Eyery morning between daybreak and sunrise great droyes of crows pass oyer the city from their roost on Buffalo creek, south of town in a northerly direction, and return late in the evening. It is the largest collection of crows ever known to quarter so near town. There are ten thousand, more or less, and what they will do tor the farmer's corn fields a little later on will be a plenty; Conldn't Orang-utans;. A number of boys were amused at the camp in rear of the furniture store Tuesday night by "shaking of the toof " as executed by a country lad, whose brother pulled the strings over a banjo head, while he "cut the pigeon wing."
