Nebraska, writes the editor to Hold his paper until he sends permanent address. He savs his Regiment had orders to leave that day for New Orleans and he was going over into Cuba with the valorous 12th. By the way, we notice with pleas ure the recent promotion of our voting friend. When he was here on a visit last fall he was wearing the stripes of a Corporal. Recently he has been made Post Sergeant Major. We expect to hear still better accounts of him. A GREAT record oi cures, une qualled in medical history, proves Hood's Sarsaparilla possesses merit un known to any other MEDICINE THE VANCE GUARDS VOLUNTEER. Ready to Answer the Summons of Their Country and go Where Duty Calls. The Vance Guards, Co. C, Third Regiment, Capt. P. T. Jones, have re sponded to the call for troops and signified their readiness to go where duty leads and their country directs. All honor to Capt. Jones and his brave men. No one not in their po sition can fully realize the step they take. But they do not stop to debate the question, to weigh the con sequences, to count the cost. That is not the business of a soldier. And knowing a soldier's duty they are ready toobey th summons "to arms" and do a soldier's duty. Up to the present Capt. Jones has received no orders to report for duty. Adjutant General Cowles wired him Monday to know if his company would volunteer. The answer was prompt and emphatic. It was just the reply that all who know the Vance Guards expected they would. At a meeting held later every mem ber to i man volunteered to go any where on earth Company C. under its present organization, goes. Eight new men were enlisted at the same time. All honor to the brave boys! They show themselves worthy of our hijrh est admiration and applause worthy to wear the chaplets of heroes and patriots. Capt. Jones was instructed to re cruit his company to 84 men and a bulletin to that effect was at once posted. Several applications for en listment have already been sent in and it is expected that the full num ber desired 25 will be readily se cured. The State Guard will be mobilized at Kaleigh. Hut just when the troops will be ordered to assemble there is not yet known. It was thought they would be called out this week. In the mean time the question of who will command the brigade is be inr agitated with considerable inter est. There is a strong sentiment in favor of a North Carolina Brigadier for North Carolina soldiers, as well as the retention of the present field officers. And unless there is assurance that the State Guard as now composed will not undergo a complete reorgani zation there may not be a disposition to furnish North Carolina's quota of troops from this source. . . Dr. Jay Gum, of Wilson, Ind. Ter.. says: I have distributed the sample Pills vou sent, and such a run was made for Ra mon's Liver Pills & Tonic Pellets that mv stock was depleted in a day or two. They ave certainly a revolution in the pill busi ness and people are wild in praise or their action. I want to keep them in stock so long as you keep them up to their present excellency." . Commendable Action. We notice a very commendable resolution adopted by the Junior Order of American Mechanics, Peters burg, Va., to the effect that the lodge dues of any member who volunteers to go to the war will be kept up by the lodge. There is a lodge of the Junior Order in Henderson and it is in a growing and flourishing condition. Such action must commend the Order to favorable consideration and no doubt others will be led to imitate the example. . .

The "Henderson Cfold Leaf speaks very highly of a speech delivered to the young ladies of the Henderson Female College by Dr. F. H. Macon on the subject of Dentistry. It always affords us pleasure to note the esteem in which our boys are held by those with whom they cast their lot. Dr. Macon is hiffhly es teemed by people of Henderson and is successful to a hi;h degree in his chosen profession, and deserves it every bit. Warrenton liecord.

Strause came up from New Bern Tuesday and reports things moving along in a satisfactory manner. Judging by what thev have done in Henderson the Gold Leaf can assure its New Berne friends that thev will soon be given a lirst-class telephone service if they have not had it before. Thus it will be seen that our Hen derson corporation is branching out and developing its business in new territory. For Sale. A Billiard table 4x8 feet, complete with ivory balls, cues, racks, &c.

JAJLUULLV A Patriotic and Inspiring Scene, In one of the specialty acts at Bur- well Hall luesdav night the soloist. a voting man dressed in the uniform of soldier, in the concluding part pro dnced a United States flag and waved it proudly over his head. Atthesight Old Glory the audience applauded and cheered itself hoarse. As he came back a voung girl dressed in pure white entered from the opposite side of the stage bearing a Cuban flag and the two colors were blended and waved together If the audience had manifested enthusiastic ;ted enthusiastic demon stration before it almost went wild now. Again and again the hand clapping and stamping of feet and shouting resounded until the vast Hall echoed and re-echoed with one mighty outburst of sentiment and feeling. It was a patriotic and in spiring scene and one that plainly showed where the audience were "at." mo cike-o PAl'.

Noticing a beautiful oil painting at Watkins' store Tuesday that im pressed the writer as being of un usual merit we asked who the artist was. Upon being told that it was executed by a twelve year old girl. Miss "Beck" Watkins, we were sur prised at the remarkable talent dis played by one so young. The painting is 2Jx4 feet and rep resents Romeo and Juliet and is a beautiful and faithful portrayal of these famous characters. It is an exquisite piece of work and would re flect credit on one of older years and wider experience. Mr. W. E.

Horton, yard here, returned Saturday from Balti more where he went about two weeks before to have an operation performed for the removal of a large- tumor which had formed on the muscle of his left forearm. It was feared that an amputation would be necessary, and Mr. Horton was assured that if he had neglected the matter much longer he would have lost his arm. Dr. Cheatham had told him the trou ble was of a serious nature and advised that he have it attended to sooner, but he kept putting it off until it was almost too. late. How ever, the operation was performed successfully and Mr. Horton is now on the road to recovery. It was a very unusual operation, though not a dangerous or difficult one, and excited a great deal of in terest among the staff of hospital surgeons at Johns Hopkins. . Shake Into Your Shoes.

Owing to the short time in which we had to write and the limited had to write space at our command, it was im possible to refer to the really admira ble address of Col. J. E. Mowbrav, of Philadelphia, at the Methodist Epis copal church Wednesday night of last week, as it deserved. And we have felt it was but due the distin guished speaker and the cause in which he is devoting at least a por tion of his time and talents to notice it more at length. Col. Mowbray is a native of Mary land and a vetran of the Confederate army. He is a gentleman by birth, training and environment, and in re citing his life-story he does it not as one lost to shame at his own degrada tion. But as one who love shis fellow man, by the powerful example of his own bitter experience he would save or reclaim him from the terrible thralldom of strong drink. Col. Mowbray has a story to tell one of intense and thrilling interest and he tells it well. While listening to his graphic portrayals of - the drunkard's life, his words of sym pathy, of hope, of encouragement, his splendid descriptions of places and things as personally observed in all parts of the world, one is charmed and enchanted as if under the spell of some strange and exhilarating in fluence. His subject as announced last week was: "Shackles Stricken from Human Limbs, and Fangs F2xtracted from Human Souls," which he treated in a masterly manner, charming and edifying and entertaining his audi ence as only one of rare erudition, polished mind, and gifted speech can. Col. Mowbray has a pleasing per sonality, and the moment his faces his audience they are brought in full sympathy with him. Before he has spoken a dozen words they instinctive ly feel that a real treat is in store for them. He is a magnetic speaker, in tellectually and oratorically a peer a mong platform lecturers. His language is superb even poetic. His delivery is excellent, his illustrations vivid, his descriptive powers marvelous. There is a charm and fragrance and freshness about the address quite un like the average temperance lecture. One must hear him to fully appreci ate him, and the Gold Leaf regrets that the coming among us of such a splendidly furnished speaker, whose every word and phrase and gesture bespeak culture and refinement, was not more generally known. He de served a larger audience and it was due our people that they should have had an opportunity to hear him. Ihe speaker said he was not con nected with any kind of institution for the cure of inebriates. He was not in the employ of any such institu tion nor had he any linancial interest in one. lint he spoke as one quali fied to speak and he had a good word to say for Dr. Keeley and his discov ery (without calling any names). He was simply a part of the Amer ican lemperance League of 30,000 people, all of whom had been drunk ards, or the 10,000 women of its mem bership who had been the mothers, sisters, wives or daughters of drunk ards, and the Keeley treatment is to alcohol and opium what vaccination is to smallpox. He believed the Divine Being Viad never created a poison for which He did not plant by its side an antidote that yielded its secret power to some Investigating, searching mind as this cure for the alcohol habit (or disease) did to Dr. Keelev. The lecture is one not to be forgot ten. There is a uniqueness, a fresh ness, an inspiration about it, the aroma and delightful flavor of which will long abide as a pleasant memory with those whose good fortune it was to hear the gifted and richly endowed lecturer. From the Concord Standard we take the following tribute to Col. Mow bray's, talent and ability as an edify ing and entertaining speaker and the laudable work he is so nobly engaged in: Fancy, if you will, an intellect towering high above modiocrity, equipped with an erudition limited only by the whole realm of literature; with a vocabulary spanning the English language; with a fluency of language yielding at the instant com mand of the master; with the finish of ex tensive travel; with power to picture, to a spell-bound audience, every scene that a metaphoric intuition can subserve to impress a truth; with a nervous system strung with chords like to the finest in strument; with natural language that would be eloquence without even a word; with a soul all burning with eagerness to tell the fallen that there is a balm yet for every wound, a star of hope for those in the gloom of darkness, freedom for those bound by thefetters of an insidious habit; with a zeal proportionate to the highest sense of the value of the soul of man; with the pathos of one just rescued from a thralldom, the worst possible to exist this side of the regions of eternal punishment; we say, fancy this com bina tion all focussed in one man and you have some idea of Col. Mowbray's sub lime oratory. There were facts and figures, there were graphic delineations, there were portray als of wondrous combinations in arts and ethics that the speaker interwove to catch and hold his audience with a ten sion of nerves whosechords would vibrate in unison with his own, all the while dis pensing the sweetest rhythms of orator ical music to the aesthetic ear. NOT ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD. A fact often overlooked, or not always understood is that women suffer as much from distressing kidney and bladder troubles as the men. The womb is situ ated back of and very close to the blad der, and for that reason any distress, dis ease or inconvenience manifested the kid neys, back, bladder, or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be as easilv avoided bv setting urine aside for twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling is evidence that your kidneys and bladder need doctoring. If you have pain or dull acbine in the back, pass water too f re quently, or scanty supply, with saiarting or burning, these are also convincing proofs of kidney trouble. If you have doctored without benefit, try Dr. Kilmer's Swamn-Root. the great kidney remedy. The mild and the extraordinary effect will surprise you. It stands the highest for iti wonderful cures. If vou take a medicine you should take the best. At druggists' fiftv cents and one dollar, i ou may have a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail upon receipt of three two cent stamDs to cover cost of postage on the bottle. Mention the Gold Leak and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, N. Y. The proprietor of this paper guarantees the genuineness of this offer. CASTORIA For Infants and Children.

It was chartered by special act of the Legislature of Virginia, and has as its officers some of the first citizens and leading business men of the Old Dominion, Hon. Charles T. OTerrall, ex-Congressman and ex- Governor of Virginia, being the Supreme Governor (or President), with such associate officers as Hon. Bev. T. Crump, Wm. Bryan, Esq., and others.
