Rumor JfaK It That Do Ik r'ljlnir From
J!:s Fiiuiuil.il Trendies.
It is reported in New Yor'c t';at
Walter (J Newman- has disap
peared, leaving n number of dis
credited chocks and claims. His
attorney denies tho rtport and
says ho is on a tour with his wife
and daughter to the Pacific const;
1 hat there are no claims against
him except certain ones in liti
gation. Tin; Salisbury corre
spondent to the Charlotte (Jbser
ver says the report is believed in
Salisbury to the extent that all
of his effects, have been attached.
It is intimated, by some that
the condition of tho Uni'm C-.p-per
mine a'lairs make bis pres
ence too necessary to "rximtt of
his western '.our. C'apt. W. M.
Wiley, the receiver for the Un
ion Copper M ine lompnny, says
Mr. Newman had been located
in Chicago, bat that ho had since
left for the Pacific coast.

stroyed Beyond ItecoTery.
Nothing has occurred in tho
recent annals of our history that
rightly claims and receives so
much publiu attention as the
tfroat event, at Galveston, Texas.
Mayor Jones ehtiinates the loss
of J if o at 5,IHX. The property
loss is estimated at from $15,
000,000 to sjtilO, 000,000.
The situation, doubtless, 'beg-o-ars
such description as to con
voy au adequate idoa. To add
to tho evils, rioting, pilfering
characters must have the atten
tion hthat is needed for relief.
Throe riots have occurred but
wero suppressed promptly. iTho
polico force has been instructed
to stiuot down the vandal caught
robbing the dead and a dispatch
says 100 were arrested, 43 oi
whom were found guiity and shot
by court martial and were found
to iiavo fingers in their pockets,
which they cut olT hastily with
out yet removing tho rings on
tlioni. Ears were also stripped oil
for jewels. Their bodies were
taken with three barges of the
decomposing dead and dumped
off in too sea,
Tho relief funds are pouring
in at a rato showing the depths
of generous sympathy.
Mr. Van Vleck, manager of the
Southern I'aeific, gives $5,000,
New Orleans has given $15,000
and a boat load of provisions,
Montgomery gives 1,000, Sa
vaenah gives 1,000, Charlotte
irives ijrtoi', Norfolk 50, Atlanta
contributes t?l,"71. The New
ork journal has collected and
-.sit I hi' '' train load and more
l' tan ::'!i,( o. The Standard Oil
Company gives 10,000. The St.
Louis Commercial Club gives
olt'.t.'oO. Gov. S'.iyers ha re
eriived more than $100,000 as
a relief' fund, and much has been
.'orvarded directly.
t outnander ra:;UT, of the sta
tion, says he fetirs that Galves

The Galveston situation is be
ing relieved as fast as possible
hy the rolling in of supply and
olo'hing trains and money con
tributions. The latter has now
gotten up to $.'!oo.OOO. More
than $25,000 was raised in New
York Thursday.
A new horror and monaco to
health has risen for those dis
tressed people. Tho dead bodies
that were taken to sea for burial
are now being wafted up on the
shores by the tides.
They must be disposed of
again. Thousands of barrels of
lime are being used for sanitary
purposes.
The proablity now is that the
city will again be built though
many will not return to tho scene
uf so great distress and loss.

,000.
Tiie question arises, how does
tho Galveston disaster compare
with that of Johnstown in loss
of life? We turn to Spofford's
brief account and find it as fol
lows:
"Tho town itself contained
some 20,000 inhabitants, and
along tno uonemaugn river
thero was a total population of
about 30,00 when, on May 31,
1889, this busy, thriving district
was laid waste by tho bursting
of Conemaugh Lake and reser
voir situated about ten miles
above the town. Houses,
churches anc factories were
driven by the flood into a mass
of .ruin which was flually piled
up against tho railway bridgo at
Johnstown and its destruction
completed by tho outbreak of
fire. Altogether those who por
ished numbered 9,000."
While tho death list at Galves
ton must remain a more approx
imated total, it will hardly reach
beyond 5,000, which leaves the
Johnstown far in the lead of sim
ilar disasters.
Worst Slaughter He Ever Snw.
A Honolulu dispatch of Sep
tember 12th says : Col. Meade,

who was in command of Ameri
can forces at tho taking of Tien
Tsin, arrived hero Saturday on
board the government transport
Solace. lie has been invalided
homo on account rheumatism,
but is desirous of returning to
active field service in China.
"I have been iu the business
of war for thirty-five years," he
tid, "and went all through the
Civil War, but I never saw such
slaughter as was iuCicted at Tien
Tsin July lyth and 14th.
" When wo finally entered the
city there were dead and mangled
bodies every few feot.
"The dead lay all about the
streets. Firo had rained into
the city from the English and
Japanese batteries, which had
been placed on an elevation and
the number of Chinese killed was
awful. There wTas no special at
tempt made to ascertain the
number of dead. They were
simply buried as quickly as pos
sible, while the Chinese hurried
along the road to Pekin with
fully 2,000 wounded.
"The battle began at daylight
of tho 13th, last all day and
night, and on the morning of the
14th the Japanese succeeded in
blowing up tho main gate with
gun cotton. This made a broach
and tho allies were able to enter
the city.
"Tho Japanese troops behaved
with splendid courage. They
are intelligent fighters, ready to
go anywhere, and their discip
line up to the highest staudard.
Tho Chinese also did some hard
fighting, for thoy inflicted a loss
of nearly 800 men on the aides."

Presidential Tickets.
The country has a larger
supply and a greater variety of
presidential tickets than it was
over blessed with before. An
oven dozen of them have been
placed upon the political bulletin
board, and there may be one or
two moro added. The list stands
as follows up to date:
Republican-For president, Wil
liam McKiuley, of Ohio; for vice
president, Theodore Iioosevelt,
of New York.
Democratic William J Bryan,
of Nebraska; Adlai E Steven
son, of Illinois.
Silver Republican William J
i3ryan, of Nebraska; Adlai E
Stevenson, of Illinois.
Fusion Populist William J
Bryan, of Nebraska; Adlai E
Stevenson, of Illinois.
Mid Uoad Populist Wharton
Barker, of Pennsylvania; Igna
tius Donnelly, of Minnesota.
Prohibition John J Woolley,
of Illinois; Henry B Motcalf, of
lihodo Island.
Social Democrats Eugcno V
Dobs, of Indiana; Job Harriman,
of California.
Social Labor Joseph F Mal
loney, of Massachusetts; Valen
tine Rommell, of Pennsylvania
United Christian JFR Loon
ard, of Iowa; Charles M Shel
don, of Kansas.
Anti-Imperialist William J
Bryan, of Nebraska, no endorse'
ment.
National Donaldson Caffery,
of Louisiana; Archibald M Howe,
of Massachusetts.
National Union Reform Seth
Ellis, of Ohio; Samuel T Nichol
son, of Pennsylvania.
It is impossible to imagine
why some of those tickets were
nominated or what object their
supporters hope to accomp
lish.
Bryan ana totevenson are
backed by three parties, an honor
which no other presidential ticket
ever on joyed before.
Of the minor tickets tho Popu
list will poll the largest vote, but
that will bo a more trifle compar
ed to tho two big tickets. At

This Is Sense.
Hon. David B Hill in his de
nunciation of bosses is but adopt
ing tho tactics of defeated men
everywhere. If ho had won in
his fight on Crokor ho would
have been as much a boss as the
victorious Richard, but being
defeated he cries "Boss." No
man can bo a boss without
the consent of his party. As
soon as a man establishes a repu
tation as a successful political
campaign manager and party
leader he becomes a boss, ac
cording to tho envious ones and
the defeated aspirants for leader
ship. We have no patience with
this "boss" cry, since no party
and no people need bo bossed a
day longer than they are willing
to be. Tho man with the quali
fications for leadership will in
evitably load, until tho people
object to his leadership and over
throw him. Danville Register.

"Chapel Hill was visited by i
destructive fire this afternoon,
the t jta! loss being about $t5,00(

"The fire originated at 1
o'clock in a two story frame
residence occupied by Editor W

teu room building and in a few
i minutes was a mass of flames.
The building was worth $1,500,

Thompson's loss by firo and
breakage is about 200; no in

store of J D Webb, a frame
building. Tho stock was valued
at 5,500. It was partly saved,
but damaged about 50 per cent.
Tho building cost 2,250 and is a
total loss, with no insurance on

A man can no more be suc
cessful iu a business he does not
like than can a man bo happy
with a wife ho does not lovo.
Enthusiasm is the power which
impels men onward in any and
every vocation. WiJiout it men
are lethirgic. They will drift.
But to pull against the tide they
are as unablo as thoy aro unwill
ing. Drifting, however, does not
win the race, either in business
or aquatic events. There must
be tho long pull, the strong pull
and the pull with vigor.
Men in business today have no
easy task. There is a great deal
to discourage and very little to
encourage. There are foes with
in and foes without to contend
against.
Undor such conditions it is
no wonder so many either fail
altogether or eke out a more ex
istence. Tho antido'.o for despair is en
thusiasm, and tho germ of en
thusiasm is lovo for or pleasure
in that business or vocation in
which you aro embarked.
Therefore, if you would suc
ceed, get in love with your busi
ness. Selected.
Criticise Judiciously.
It is always ;fair and right to
presume that a public officer is
doing his duty, and is acting
rightly. If there is any cause of
complaint let it be aired in the
proper way, not by a curbstone
or cornerstoro jury, if ho has
erred seriously let him be im
peached, if his fault lies in not
thinking as you do, then let mat
tors rest until you have an op
portunity of electing some one
nearer vour ways ot tmnking
First, last and all the time, do
not undertake to criticise or con
demn any publit: officer by indis
criminate charges on the stieets
or cross roads. That sort of
thing has a strong tendency to
weaken the effectiveness of any
man's work, no matter how good,
to cheapen public positions and
to set a low staudard for others
who may be filling public posi
tions, or who will in time to come
fill them. Florence Times.
