KEELEY IN ITS NEW HOME,
Magnificent Effort of Mr. Mow
bray at the Opening.
INSTITUTE'S ELEGANT QUARTERS.
"A Place Where Shackles are Stricken
from Human Limbs and Fangs Ex
tracted From Human Souls."
A considerable crowd gathered at
the new Keeley Institute yesterday to
be present at the formal opening in
response to the invitation of the man
agement. Had it been generally known
what a treat was in store for those who
heard the speech of Mr. Mowbray the
crowd would N have been five times as
large as' it was. It is impossible not
to feel sorry for those who missed it.
The reporter thought it was an ac
cident for the first few minutes and
tried to catch a few of the "jewels five
words lonar" that the speaker was
throwing away but he soon learned
better and giving up in despair, the
reporter was lost in the auditor. For
an hour and a quarter the audience
under the old oaks sat spell bound,
while the orator showed what a mag
nificent vehicle of thought is the En
glish as it can be spoken. After hear
ing the leading orators of the country
it must be said in justice to Mr. Mow
bray that never once has he heard a
man who was more completely master
of the language. There was the
"nameless charm" that only a few can
command.
Ladies made up a considerable part
of the audience and turning to them
the speaker said that "ever since the
day when woman was last the cross
and first at the sepulchre she has been
the first in' every good work and the
last to relinquish it." Therefore they
were found at the opening of a "place
where the shackles will be stricken
from human limbs and the fangs ex
tracted from human souls."
He paid a tribute to Mrs. Gray that
was incomparably fine and would be
published if it could be had. Speak
ing of the past of the Keeley Institute
he said he had distributed $97 ,000 in
Greensboro and $16,000 in pure chari
ty. The speaker gave a history of his
own life, saying that for eighteen
years he was the slave of both opium
and alcohol; that he tried every noted
physician and every sanitarium in
Europe and America ; that finally,
when a physical and mental wreck, he
tried the Keeley treatment and in five
weeks was turned out cured and a new
man. After that, he said, he resolved
to never lose an opportunity to bear
testimony to its value. It was mag-
nificient testimonial to the beneficence
of the Keeley remedy.
Dr. Weaver opened the exercises
with prayer and Dr. Egbert W. Smith
introduced the speaker in a few well
chosen words as "one of the first speak
ers of our country" a title that was
ably warranted.
After the address the doors of the
fine old homestead, which has been
beautified and- enlarged without de
stroying the charm of the old, was
thrown open to the inspection of vis
itors. The building has been fitted up thor-
-uto-ViIv. ha.s hath, smoking and club
vlb j , ,
rooms and all the appliances that con-
tribute to comfort in these days. With
its broad lawn, grand old trees, quiet I
1 npa liT.v and commodious interior
v .7
there is no more delightful place to
spend a few weeks than the new quar
ters of the Keely Institute. Seventy-
five uatients can be accommodated
with ease and one hundred when ne
cessary. Refinement and ease, com
fort and healing, "the striking of
shap.klea from human limbs and ex
tracting fangs from human souls,"
this is what the new Keely has to offer.
rvl W. JL Osborne remains as
President; William Lipscomb, man
ager; Dr. B. B. Williams, physician
in charge, Mrs. Banks, matron.
The First Resignation.
The resignation of R. W. Nading as
clerk to the. district attorney is the first
t,r nrmir under the civil service laws
and it is not known what steps will be
taken as to the appointment 01 ms
successor. It is believered, however,
that J. E. Buxton, whose name has
been forwarded to the department for
iott1a. will be annointed. Winston

JARRELL HOTEL CHANGES HANDS
Southern's Improvements Couldn't
Stand Salisbury Personals.
Telegram: Bureau, )
High Point, N.C., Oct. 22, '97. f
There was a man on the northbound
train last night, pulling from the glo
rious Old North State, who declared
that he intended getting as far away
as the train would carry him. He was
very indignant because the authori
ties of Salisbury pulled a hobo and
set him to ball-bearing, when "he
want doing nothing but beatin' his
way" He rejoiced that he would soon
be across the Virginia line, declaring
that there was no law and regulation
in North Carolina. His cause for
complaint was that the authorities of
Salisbury wanted him to ante up half
bis taxes and show cause why he
should not pay the balance, or else
pay $100 fine and work 30 days with
ball and chain attachment. "What
am I going to stay here for?" he con
cluded. "I ain't no dern fool!"
The Jarrel Hotel changed hands
yesterday afternoon, Mr. N. H.
Slaughter taking charge. The jolly
knights of the grip all over the land
wiU be glad to know "Uncle Whis
kers" has turned landlord. We hope
and expect the new management to be
a prosperous one.
W. P. Ragan returned to Greens

Superintendent O'Brien and Vice-
President Gannon, .of the Southern,
were in High Point, in their respective
private cars, inspecting the road's
premises about the depot. The South
ern has decided to extend the freight
platform and to construct a roof over
it. The ever increasing bulk of freight
coming to and from High Point has,
of course," justified this step. A new
side track will also be laid. These
improvements will be made at once.

Madrid, Oct. 22 Sagasta declines
to accept Secretary Sherman's excuses
and explanations of the filibustering
expeditions. Minister Depuy DeLane

man that these expeditions must ,be

RT ACCOUNTANTS WANTED.
Postmasters Who Peddle Stamps to
be Punished Officers to be Leased
for Ten Years Instead of Five.
By wire to TheTelkgeam.
Washington, Oct. 22. The report of
First Assistant Postmaster General
Heath for the fiscal year ending June
30, was-made public today. Special
attention is directed to the necessity
of additional facilities for division
salaries and allowances, but the chief
recommendation is that provision be
made for a small corps of special
agents, about ten expert accountants
who are familiar with real estate val
ues to enquire into postmasters' re
quisitions and demands, and to reach
a just ascertainment of the merit of
such purely business matters as cannot
be obtained by correspondence.
The report further recommends that
authority be given to secure leases of
postoffice stations for a period of ten
years, instead of five.
It was also recommended that more
severe penalties be fixed for the pun
ishment of postmasters who ' peddle
stamps with a view of increasing their
own salaries.

YERKES TELESCOPE IN USE.
A Third Companion Star to Vega
Found.
Williams Bay, Wis., Oct. 20. The
great Yerkes telescope, although fo
cused only yesterday, has already giv-
en promise of the important astrono
mical work which is confidently ex
pected from it. Prof. Barnard today
announced' theat he had already dis
covered a third companion , to Vega.
He found it soley because the Yerkes
telescope is more searching than any
other in the world. Prof" Barnard is
too modest to give his new star a
name, and he declares he would not
have told anybody about it had it not
been a big thing when the powers of
the telescope are taken into considera
tion. More Men Needed for the Navy.
Washington, Oct. 22. Secretary
Long, it is said, will urge Congress in
his annual report to increase the per
sonnel of the navy by more than 100
officers, 1,500 enlisted men and 500 ap
prentices. The law limits the number
of captains on the active list to forty
five. Captain Cronihshield believes
this limit too low. The rapid growth
of the new navy has resulted in plac
ing more ships in service and more
captains are consequently needed.
Captain Groninshield has urged that
15 captains be added to the list of offi
cers of that grade.
Not One American Steamer.
During eight months of the present
year 648 ocean steamships visited Bu
enos Ay res, the capital of Argentina.
Of these not one carried the stars and
stripes. Three hundred and eighty
seven were British, 108 German and 66
French. It is strange that our people
do not compete for the carrying trade
of the world, but are content to pay
one or two hundred million dollars a
year to foreign countries for carrying
our produce across, the ocean.
