Women as Wei! as Men Are Made Miserable by 9 "Kidney Trouble. Kidney trouble preys upon the mind, dis courages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor ana cnecriumcss suuu disappear when the kid neys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncommon for 1 child to be bom 3 afflicted with weak kid neys. If the ciild urin ates too often, If the urine scalds the flesh or if, when the child reaches an age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, depend upon it, the cause of the difficulty is kidney trouble, and the first step should be towards the treatment of these Important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. Women as well as men are made mis erable with kidney and bladder trouble, and both need the same great remedy, The mild and the immediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.

Thomas Mooitg, P.iRKKH PRAISRD Br REPUBLI CAN. J. Moan FaueK, of Sew Vork, Yalk or Democratic bailees. Atlanta Constitution, kludge Alton B. Parker is the strong est man the Democratic party could put in the field, says Hon. J. Sloan Yon- sett, of tlmira, N. Y., a prominent aud influential Republican, who is visit ing in Atlanta. "Of course, I think Roosevelt will carry New York," said Mr. Fassett Isst night, "but the Democrats couldn't pick a stronger man in the State than Judge Parker." Mr. Fassett speaks of himself as "a deep dyed Republican, "but he is a gnat admirer of Judge Parker. Mr. Fas sett'i political record in New York shows, however, just how he stands with, the Republican party. For eight years he was in the state eenate and in 1801, he was the candidate of that party for governor of New York Bute. But when Judge 1 Parker's name is mentioned he waxes enthusiastic. "Judge Parker is a clean, strong, conservative man, whose record is with out a blemish either in his public or private life. Another factor in his fa vor is that he bas no political record. Tnat is he has never been prominently identified with either one of the fac tions of the Democratic party so as to incur the enmity of the oth'er faction. He has never said, I believe, juet what stand he took during the two campaigns in which Mr. Bryan was candidate for president on the Demo cratic ticket, but his friends have said for him that he voted and supported the regular Democratic ticket. I be' lieve he did, for he is a very strong partisan. "Now as to whether Judge Parker has been close enough to the people to make a strong presidential candidate outside of New York State I -cannot say, but I know he is the strongest Democrat in the State, stronger than Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Hearst or anybody else. 'But then suppose he is not well known outside New York Stale, did you ever notice how exceedingly fast these dark horses run. As a matter of fact, however, he is a whole lot better known and more favorably known .to the people of the. country to-day than Mr. Cleveland was when he was nomi nated the first time by the Democratic party." t Why They Called Him "Lawyer."

T" John Eaten Cooke The Rappahannock flows serenely yonder through the hills as in otupr years; the autumn forests burnaway in blue and gold and orangeas they did in the days of my youth; the winds whisper, the sunshine laughs; it is only we who laugh no more. Was that a real series of events, I say, or only a dTsma of imagination? Did I really hear the voice of Jackson and the laughter of Stuart in those glo rious charges on those bloody fields? Did Ashby pass before me on his'niilk white steed and greet me by the camp fire as his friend? Was it a real figure, that stately form of Lee, amid the swamps of Chickahominy, the fire of Malvern Hill, the appalling din and smoke and blood f Manaeas, Fredericksburg, Cbancellorsville, Gettysburg, Spottcpl vania "and Petersburg, Jackson, that greater than the leader of the Ironsides Stuart, more firery than Rupert Ashby, the pearl of chivalry aud honor Lee, the Old Roman, fighting with a nerve so splendid to the bitter end these were surely the figures of some dream, the forms of an excited imag ination. Did Pelham press tny hand and fight and fall in that stubborn charge on Averill? Did Farley smile and light and die near the very same spot? And was it really the eyes of Stuart that dropped bitter tears upon the pallid faces of these youths, dead on the field of honor? It is like a dream to me that I looked upon these faces, that I touched the honest hand of Hood, gave back the friendly smile of Ambrose Hill, spoke with the hardy Longstreet, the stubborn Ewell, Hampton the fear less and the chivalrous Lees! Souls of fire and flame! With a light how steady burned these stately names; and how they fought, these hearts of oak! But did they live their lives these heroes and their comrades as I seem to remember? It was surely a dream was it not? That the South fought so stubbornly for those four long years and bore the blood-red flag aloft in so many desperate encounters? But the dream was glorious. Still, it moves me and possesses me and I live forever in that past. As I awake at morning, the murmur of the river breezes is the low roll of drums from the forest yonder where the camps of infantry are aroused by the reveille. In the moonlight nights, when all is still, a sound comes borne upon the breeze from some dim land. I seem to hear the bugles. As the sunlight falls now on the landscape of field and wood and river, a tempest gathers on the shores of the Rappahannock. The sun shine disappears, sucked in by the black and threatening clouds which sweep from the far horizon; the lightnings flicker like quick tougues of flames; and and as these fiery Bepents play around the ebon mass a mighty wind arises, swells and roan on through the splendid foliage. Is it only a storm ? No! Yonder varie gated colors of the autumn leaves are the flaunting banners of an army drawn up there in line of battle and about to charge. Listen! That murmur of the Rappahannock is the muflled tramp of a column on the march. Hush! There is the bugle; and that rushing wind in the trees of the forest is the charge of Stuart and his horsemen. How the hoof-strokes tear along! How - the phantom horsemen shout as they charge! How the ghost of Stuart rides! See the banners yonder, where the line or battle is drawn against the au tumn woods; how the splendid colors burn, how they flaunt and wave and ripple in the wind, proud and defiant! Is that distant figure on horseback the man of Port Republic, Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville, with his old faded cap, nis aingy cosy ana tin piercing eyes; and is that the cheering of the "foot cavalry" as they greet him? Look bow the leafy banners, red as though dyed in blood, point forward as tbey come! See that dazzling flash! Is it lightning or the glarMf cannon? Htar that crash of thunder, like the opening iroar of battle! Jackson is advancing! A quick throb of the heart a hand half reaching out to clutch tbe bilt of a battered old sword upon the wall then I sink back in my chair. It was only a dream. Sciatic Rbraanallnna Cared.

Gravy's great New Eog land banquet speech still registers the high water mark in the tide-lift of southern eloquence since Ben Hill's voice was hushed. But Mr. Grady's brilliant periods are still so fresh in the memory" of Southerners that any repro duction of them here is well nigh use less. This extract is taken from bis Boston speech delivered just two weeks before bis death, and contains some of bis most characteristic touches. Said he: "As I attest it here, the spirit of my old black mammy from her home up there looks down to bless, and through the tumult of this night steals the sweet music of her croomngs as thirty years ago she helJ me jn her black arms and led me smiling into sleep. This scene vanishes as I speak and I cafch the vision of an old time southern home, with its lofty pillars and its snow white pigeons fluttering down, through the golden air. I see women'with strained and anxious faces and children alert yet helpless. I see night come down with its dangers and its apprehensions and in abig homely room I feel on my tired bead tbe touch of loving hands, now worn and wrinkled but fairer to me yet than the hands of mor tal woman and stronger yet to lead me than the hands of mortal man, as they lay a mother's blessing there while at her knees, tbe truest altar I yet have found. I thank God that she is safe in her sanctuary because her slaves, sentinel in the silent cabin or guard at her chamber door, put a black man's loyalty between her and danger." Perhaps the gem of all Mr. Grady's brilliant periods is the peroration to this same speech which is reproduced below as follows: "This hour little needs the loyalty that is loyal to one section and yet holds the other in enduring suspicion and estrangement. Give us the broad and perfect loyalty that loves and trusts Georgia alike with Massachusetts; that knows no north, no south, no east, no west; but endears with equal and pa triotic pride every foot of our soil, every state in our union. A mighty duty sir, and a mighty inspiration impeli every one of us tonight; to lose in pa triotic consecration whatever estranges, whatever divides. We sir, are Ameri cans and we fight for human liberty The uplifting force of the American idea is under every throne on earth France, Brazil, these are our victories To redeem the earth from king craft and oppression, this is our mission And we shall not fail. Uod has sown in our soil the seed of bis niellenDial and he will not lay the sickle to the ripening crop until his full and perfect day has come. Our history, sir, has been a constant and expanding miracle from Plymouth Rock and Jamestown all the wayf aye, even from the voice less and trackless ocean, a new world rose to the sight of the inspired sailor As we approach the fourth centennial of that stupendous day when the old world will come to marvel and to learn amid our gathered treasures let us re solve to rrown tbe miracles of our past with the spectacle of a republic, com pact, united, indissoluble in the bonds of love, loving from the lakes to the gulf, tbe wounds of war healed in every heart as on every hill serene and re- splendent at the summit of human glory and earthly achievement, blazing out the path and making clear Jhe way up which all the nations of the earth must come in Gods appointed time." a From the nooresvllle Enterprise. FrevJ W. Glass, a prosjierous farmer of Cabarrus county, says that twice as much guano is being used this year as ever before in any one year by the farmers in his section. "Every thing is going in cotton," he says.

Charlotte Observer. "An Outrageous Verdict," is the head ing under which The Greenville, 8. C, News comments on the result of the trial of a recent suit for damages brought again t the Sonthern Railway by Mrs. Franklin, who secured a ver dii for $25,000 because of an alleged insult she was subjected to by two male passengers on the defendant' train. According to the testimony of Conductor Roseboro, who was in charge ofthe train, hej supposed Mrs. Franklin and the men whom she al leged were rude to her were friends until she appealed to him for protec tion, when he promptly took her io another seat in the car and ordered the men not to speak to her again. "No agent or employe of the Southern Rail way," says The News, "was guilty of any wrong doing," yet despite this the railroad is ordered to pay $25,000 be cause tbe plaintiff alleges that two men bugged her while she was a pas senger on the train. The News is right when it says that "while it may be a broader question of law, a woman could not expect damages from the United States government if Bhe should be hugged in the lobby of the post office, and this Greenville verdict against the Southern Railway, under the peculiar circumstanees, is an out rage." As bad as this case appears, the sig nilicance of it is still worse, for it shows the tendency of Southern juries to assess damages agaiiift corporations with little or no mercy. Indeed, it would seem, from the stiindjMjint of justice, that had the alleged occurrence taken place on ' the streets of Green ville instead of nu a railroad train, the city wonld have been just as liable, for the reason that its police officers did not anticipate it and take preventative steps. I'd just as is this verdict, and many others which attract less atten tion, it is really not surprising that 1 jury should find against the Southern The enmity ngxinst railroads is bitter in some sections of the South, although it has perhaps at tliU time reached its climax in South Carolina, owing largely to recent political agitation. There fore, few, if any, people have any idea that the average jury could deal justly with the defendant company if it so desired. It seems incredible, however. that the presiding judge should decline to set aside such a verdict as levying excessive damages, if for no other re ison. We know nothing about the legal questions involved, but, from the standpoint of equity it seems to us that, as The Greenville News says, the verdict is an outrage, aud not only so, but a disgrace to the judicial sys tem of South Carolina. As bad a record as North Carolina juries have made in regard to cases against the Southern and the doctrine of placing a monetary value on mental anguieh, we are sure they have never reached the point touched in' tbe Franklin suit. In view of such things, who can blame the Southern Railway for moving all suits against it to the Federal courts? A Poterful Kxhorter. Washington I'oBt Col. J. S. Cunningham, a well known North Carolinian, recently addressed a large assembly of negroes in his na tive county. He had just returned from a trip to Philadelphia and had visited Girard Collage. He gave his audience a vivid description of that institution and brought tears to the eyes of the col ored people as he dwelt upon the phil anthropy tnat bad inspired the appro priation of money for such a great refuge for the orphan. , He then, in another strain, with equal realism, painted the horrors of the hereafter awaiting the bad ne groes. His superstitious hearers groaned with terror. Shortly afterward a friend of the colonel met an old-time darky in the big road. "I never knowed Mars John wux a preacher," said the old fellow, but he's the powerfulest exhorter I ever seen. La colored folks never -A .... heerd the like of the way he preached down at the Springs t'other day." "What was his text, Uncle?" The old negro scratched his head several ti mes before he replied : ' ' Well, sah, I doesn't 'zactly remember, but it wuz aomethin' 'bout hell-fire atxl Phil- adtlphy, and I thinks it's in the book of Sodom.

Mr. Blackburn Not Injured. Special to Charlotte Oiiserver. GnuENsuoHo, April 21. Hon. E Spencer Blackburn, the de facto Re publican nominee for Congress in the eighth district, returned last night from Statesville, where he had been attend ing Federal Court and incidentally looking after his fences, which seem to tie badly demoralized in that portion of the political vineyard. An inapec lion 01 t lie candidate tins morning ne he passed in review on the Btrcet showed that he was not at al! dit-figured by the reported assault made upon him yesterday in .Statesville by young Jim Mott. Speaking of that oceuireuce, a party who saw it says that the way it was reported in the papers this morn ing does not do lilackUirn justice lie says that Blackburn was not acquainted with young Mott, aud did not address him as "Hello, Jim," hut that he was talking with n group of friends, both Democrats and R publicaus, when his bat suddenly fell off, and without knowing that any 0110 had assaulted him, he reached down and picked it up, laughingly, and was brushing it, when some one informed him that Mott had struck him on the shoulder and knocked his hat off. By this time, f member of the group, who was a Dem ocrat, had taken Mott away. This party also says that Mott is a very small, weakly man, and that Black burn, if he had desired to, could have knocked him out with half of his loft hand; but the fact was, he did not know that any one had intended to strike him.

The war office is Hooded with thousands of applications from men of every age and condition of life for permssion to go to the front. The applications come fiom time-expired soldiers and boys too young to enlist in the army in the regular plan ner. The ages of the applicants range from 14 to 70. Many of them, following the Samouri custom, sign their applications with their own blood and several are wholly written in blood. Volunteers have not yet been accepted,, but the officials are much pleased at the desire of the peo ple to assist in the war.
