The Goldsboro Argus figures that $30,000 have been received for strawberries on the line of the Wilmington and Weldon railroad this season. All the best berries have been shipped. Cheatham has appointed Dr. Shepherd, of NQurhap, as his private secretary. If the attempt to loot the insane asylum had not proved abortive, Dr. Shepherd would nave been assistant physician at Goldsboro. Kinston Free Press: The Presbyterian church in Kinston will be dedicated on the fifth Sunday in this month. Dr. Payne, of Washington, N. C, and Rev. C. G. Vardell, of Red Springs, will be here on that occasion. The Jacksonville Times says that the loss in the burning of turpentine boxes by one fire last week in Onslow was $8,000. This is still something of a tar, pitch and turpentine state when $8,000 worth of tur pentine boxes can be burned in one fire. Rev. W. S. Lacy, of Norfolk, a., for merly the popular Presbyterian pastor at Jonesboro and Sanford, will deliver the literary address before Sanford- high school at 3:30 o'clock p. m.. May 25th.

It is very Pathetic to hear the mother's affectionate call for little "Keena" who now sleeps in a new made grave. j Windsor Orient: Mrs. Emelia White, ! who lives in Colerain township, is a most remarkable woman. She was born in 1811, being now 86 years old, and can sew, knit and read fine print without the use of glasses and without difficulty, and can walk without apparent fatigue. She is the mother of eleven children, ten of j whom she raised to be grown and mar- j ried. A count of her offspring a few days ago added 105 children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. j Raleigh Tribune: The sponsor for North Carolina, Miss Nannie Branch; Jones, will be the guest Of Hon. J. B. t O'Bryan on the occasion of the reception ; of the United Confederate Veterans at Nashville, June 22ncl to 24th. -Vernon Howell, now a pharmacist at - Rocky Mount, is in the city. He has been elected professor at the State University and will assume his duties there in September. He may spend a short while in Chapel Hill this summer looking after his laboratory and making other arrangements.; Fayetteville Observer: Mr. ; Henry Jones, a large farmer and merchant of Beaver Dam township, near thel Bladen i line, died yesterday in his 65th year.

He sleeps in one of the, cells at night, eats breakfast next morning,- and is then at liberty to go where he chooses. The old man is the guest of the county, pending the amputation of his leg which j will be performed by Dr. McGougan, the county physician, in a few days. The foot was. amputated from the leg twenty years aero, but recentlv the stumn has festered. and it is a question whether Tew will; live under the operation. ofHVinston, N. C, organized the firm of Vaughan & Co.., wholesale grocers and from the start they have met with the , success which their business tact that splendid environments deserve. The aflre now doing a business annually of $300,000 and upwards and no lirm in the south is more conveniently situated for a busi ness of the kind. They have a splendid two story brick store 40x185 feet, with ; basement and on either side there is a side track so that goods can be loaded and unloaded direct from cars of the South ern. Norfolk and Western and Cape Fear , and Yadkin Valley railroads, which is a great saving to themselves and customers in drayage and handling. Winston Sentinel: James Fulton, who coJiducts a store on North Liberty street ' went fishing with several men yesterday. J He returned home last night badly . dis- -figured about the face. He thinks , the men who beat him did it because he would not pay for all the whiskey they drank. Just before noon today Gus Newsom and Sam Fulton, a son of James . Fulton, got into a row opposite the lat-! ter's store, when Newsom shot at the son, but missed his mark. Sam had a rock in his hand but his brother prevent- i ed him from throwing it. The Sentinel learns that the trouble., started by Sam Fulton questioning Newsom about why he had treated his father so badly yester day. The parties have been summoned to appear before the mayor, this afternoon. , It is reported that other members of the ! crowd who went out yesterday returned with blaqk eyes. ' . 1 Asheville Citizen: This morning about 2 , o'clock W. M. Smathers.'a clerk in the dry goods house of H. Redwood & Co., Pat ton avenue, -who rooms on the second floor of the building was awakened by a noise and was surprised to find two men making their exit from the room. He f.!led to a man whom he saw on North jwain and left him to guard the rear, then found Watchman Sims and had him watch the Patton avenue side. This done Mr. Smathers secured the help of Patrol men Collins and Lyerly and went into a thorough search. While Officer Lyerly was searching the building Mr. Collins took a look in the abbreviated alley be tween the Redwood building and Penni man Bros. & Co.'s building. He found the pair hidden therein, arrested them, and soon thereafter the men were locked up. They proved td'be John Johnson of Reids ville, N. C, and Ernest Suttlje of Wil mington, Del., both negroes, each ap parently about 20 or 22 years of age. When nabbed, one of the men had on three coats stolen from the Redwood stock. Their haul included four coats and a pair of drawers. - Greensboro Record: Greensboro people have no idea of the high order of indus trial school for the colored people that the state of North Carolina has provided in this town. It is one of the most inter esting features of the superior advan tages for education offered by Greensboro. Those who believe that colored youth are slow to take good education in agricu-1 tural and the mechanic arts, should visit this school and look at the evidences of talent and industry. In this school the standard of excellence is as high as in any other similar school for either race, and the requirements as exacting in every particular. Another murder has been committed in this county, the first, however, in some years. This one took place near Stokesdale yesterday after noon about 4 o'clock. About 5 o'clock while the officers were still in Stokesdale a- man named Nelson drove in and said that Pegram had been shot and was dead. The officers secured a wagon and at once drove over to the place, near Price's mill, about five miles from Summerfield, nd close to the house of a Mr. Winfry. iiitojo.. of Stokesdale, and a livery -niir-svl3-?peve ov-r with them. On' their arrival they found the body of Pegram lying across the road with a plant bed cloth thrown over it and two pennies over the eyes. Removing the cloth it was seen that Pegram had been shot through the heart, the pistol used being put close to the body as was shown by the powder burns. Just beyond the: body were the two barrels of whiskey which caused all the trouble. A man named Walker saw the shooting, -as did Pegram's wife, who was at the house of Winfry. She at once went over to the spot, but she says Rosser, who was still standing over the body, told her to leave or he would kill her. She then returned to the house and in a wagon started for Stokesdale, meet ing the officers on the way and returning with them. Take JOHNSON'S CHILL & FE VER ' r ' ' ; .

The New York Stock Market, New York, May 22. The conditions in the day's stock market were - not essen tially different from those prevailing for several days past. There was a marked undercurrent of strength through the whole list, and the tendency of prices was uninterruptedly upward with the excep tion of the coalers, but this failed to in cite any outside participation in the market and then dealings were small and most of them in a few active stocks. The market wholly lacked breadth, many stocks in the usually active list having not a single transaction to their credit. Sugar also continued to be neglected, the dealings in the stock being quite ostenta tiously curtailed. The traders seem to have made up their minds not to see any cause for alarm in the Cuban question and disregard the news on the subject in a manner that offers a strong contrast to their views on former occasions. They also attach a large degree of importance to a rumor circulated in very explicit form that the supreme court will hand down a decision on Monday next in the so-called Nebraska maximum freight rate and inter-state commerce cases and that the decision in the former case would be in favor of the railroads. ' This case is of importance to the grangers and the belief that the decision will be in their fa vor materially strengthened the group and made it the leader of the advance. The buoyancy of the general speculation on the London exchange also imparted con fidence to the local maTket. . The announcement of an. additional ship ment of gold for next Tuesday of $500,000 was without marked effect on the mark et, and the statement of a decrease of $232,075 m the gross earnlgs of North western for April did not effect the strength in the granger group. r Chicago Gas continues to receive inside support and tended upward. The Gould shares reached somewhat from the strength of yesterday, Manhattan and Western Union selling off a sharp fraction in the reaction and failing of subsequent recovery. Many stocks failed of complete recovery to the high point and last prices were genrally a small fraction below that but with net gains on the day. The ex treme decline in New 'Jersey Central was 2 and Delaware and Hudson . Leather preferred, rost 1, with a slight reaction Baltimore and Ohio and Hocking Valley gained large fractions. The characteristic of the market for the week has been its underlying strength in the face of unmitigated dulness and almost of apathy, the outside interest being nil, and with some very serious drags Upon it. The devlopments in the Cuban question were apaprently not as as fearful as traders had supposed last week and when - President McKinley's message was presented to congress on Monday, it had the effect rather of strengthening the market. Government bonds displayed some little irregularity, but the variations were extremely narow and trading very light. Total sales of stocks today were 54,574 shares, including New York Central 14,000. Cotton Futures. (Special to The Messenger.) New York, May 22. Great dullness and a gradually sinking market havemarked this week in cotton. The decline has been of some importance and has fully justified the expectation that in view of the un satisfactory condition of general business and with the strength of the statistica position as the sole support to prices, some recession was almost a foregone conclusion. Today the market was very dulL Liverpool held her own on future quotaions, but the sales of spot cotton in that market were against most- dis cOuraglng. The demand from local shorts caused the market here to uooen a few points higher, but when their wants had been supplied prices eased again. The net change for me day was trfilng. Au gust opened at 7.17, advanced to 7.19, de clined to 7.15 and closed at 7.16 to 7.17, with the tone of the market steady. The market in the near future will probably continue narrow, furnishing . favorable opportunities for scalping operations, but ittle inducement for a serious campaign on either side. The fluctuations promise to be governed at present by the weather reports from the south and the takings of actual cotton by consumers from day to day. The progress of the new crop will of course, be the all important factor in determining the ultimate course of prices. In spite of the glowing optimism of our local bears, we do not think its condition at present can trutifully be said to be more than fair. But the southern ad vices report a steady improvement and a week or two or beneficial weather may work wonders. No improvement can be noted in general business conditions nor in any of those outside influences which have effect upon cotton. Without some serious set bacK to the new crop, the chances seem to us to favor lower pdices. The summer months might, if shrewdly manipulated or if business at the manu facturing centres was to revive sharply, sell at very high prices, but we regard It as far more likely from the pdesent outlooK, tnat the world will make the supply, small as it undoubtedly is, prove sufficient for its wants without disturbi ng values vioently. RIORDAN & CO. (By Associated Press.) New York, May 22. The cotton market advanced 3 to 5 points today, chiefly on coverings, following a better class of cables than looked for, and reported threat or a cold wave from the north west to the southwest, and continued ac tivity in the spot department. The sales of spot cotton today reached 3,078 bales. including 700 bales export and 2.378 bales for spinners. This business was reported at full quotations. Shorts tried to cover but found few sellers. The close was steady at a net advance of 1 to 3 points. The Chicago Markets. Chicago, May 22. Foreign news had al most exclusive control of the wheat market today and caused a lc advance In the July option. The most Influential news came from France in the shape of disturbing crop reports and made shorts scramble to cover. Corn and oats closed firm and substantially unchanged after early weakness. Provisions were weak from beginning to end and closed at de clines ranging from 7 to 17c. Some Day (By Rebecca Cameron, in Christian Ob server.) Some day the mists will clear away, That now obscure our sight, And things that here the darkest seem, Shine m a clear, white light. And we will see how wisely planned Was both the sun and shade. And how for us our Father's hand, Unerring choice had made. ! Hillsboro. N. C. - : . He Is now Cured, and He Thanks God and P. P. P., Llppman's Great Rem edy, For It. Mr. George Brig-g-s, of Moore, Okla., Buffered almost indescribable torment for three long- years. Neuralgia held him captive. The right side of his face was so badly affected that the slightest touch would cause the unfortunate man intense agony. For several weeks he could open his mouth just wide enough to be fed with liquid nourish ment, and in this manner life was sus tained. Read the following extract from his letter: "Truth is stranger than Fiction." NEURALGIA, CATARRH AND RHEUMA TISM COMPLETELY CURED. George Briggs, of Moore, Oklahoma, writes that P.P. P., Lippman's Great Remedy, cured him of catarrh, facial neuralgia and rheumatism, after three years of intense suffering. The pain lay in his cheekbone and temple, down the right side of his face, along his upper lip, and from the slightest touch he suffered agonies for weeks at a time. Could only open his mouth wide enough to admit a teaspoon, and any acid in his food would put him in torture. He had a consultation of the best physi cians in Texas, hut all to no purpose. Catarrh and rheumatism were also causing him much trouble, until he tried P. P. P. He says he is well and will swear that there are no cases of neuralgia, catarrh and rheumatism, no matter how chronic or how old the cases are, that P. P. P. will not make a total cure of. Mr. Briggs winds up his testimony by saying he thanks God and our med icine, P. P. P., Lippman's Great Rem edy, for the great cure. Kidney troubles, if neglected, bring about serious and painful and rery often fatal results. P. P. P. removes the irregularities, and cures the dis eased parts. . Dyspepsia and indigestion, skin and blood diseases, can be speedily removed by P. P. P., Lippman's Great Remedy. Ladies, take P. P. P. and rid your face of pimples, blotches, freckles, yellow or muddy skin, wrinkles and vulgar redness. Sold by all druggists. UPPMAN BROS., Apothecaries, Sola Prop'n, Lippman's Block, Savannah, da.

Neel, of Davidson College, writes: In 1886 my little daughter sud denly and unaccountably lost all her, hair. From the crown down and front ear to ear was as bald as the palm of the hand. Months and months passed and the frightful baldness remained. My physician, Dr. Paul Barringer, recommended Mrs. Crier's Real Hair Restorer. Determined to give it a fair, trial I bought a half dozen bottles. Three bottles of it faithfully used, pro-. duced no visible effect, but one morn ing, . soon arter oeginning the fourth, bottle, to our surprise and-delight, ai new growth of hair appeared and so rapid and complete was the restoration that only one more bottle was needed. Ten years have elapsed and no one has a finer suit of hair. . Less than one bottle is often effectual in checking falling hair. Read inter esting history of R. H. R. MRS. M. G.
