Don'tkuow, nobody kuows, can'l tell, about so and so. were the answers that came back to us about these details in thirty odd counties last year. It sounds in creditable, but so it is.

At each polling place the Eepub licauB are allowed one judge ot elections, and upon this JJripresen tative of the Eepublicau party rests the success of the party at the polls. His place should be to take gener al supervision over the election and not to havei his hands tied by details. The Democratic ticket is to get him to look up the names on the registrar; if they can ever per suade him to do this, he cannot possibly do the necessary watching. Cases have been known in which the. two Democrats have told him that he had to do what they said and hold the books. It only takes oue man of true grit to prevent Iraud and the Republican judge is chosen because he is known to be a mau of determination and cour age and he will do his duty when it is thoroughly understood by him. Mr. Republican Judge, your place is in the watch tower that your great party may demand and gels its rights The Protectionist. How Catarrh is Contracted. Mothers are sometimes so thoughtless to nejilect the colds which their children contract. The inflamation of the mucus membrane, at first acute, becomes chronic and the child has chronic catarrh, a dis ease that is seldom cured and that may prove a life's burden. Many persons who have this loathsome disease will remem ber having had frequent colds at the time it was contracted. A little forethought, a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy judiciously used, and all this trouble might have been avoided. Obtainable everywhere. Strange Words From a Democrat.

Mother Shipton's Famous Prophecy. Winston Sentinel. Prom time to time since 1148 a remarkable prophetic verse has beeu republished. It is known as Mother Shiptou's prophecy, and practically all of the changes that were predicted by it have today materialized. Only in the last two lines did Mother Shipton slip up, but one cannot blame her for feel ing that, if all of her other predic tious came true before 1881, there would be little left to be done in the world. More than twenty-five years ago Col. Robert W. Belo clipped the prophecy from a newspaper, and he sends it to The Sentinel with the following history: Mother Shipton's prophecy is al most forgotten except by antiquar ians. It was first published in 1448 and republished in 1641. It must be confessed that the greater part of it has been fulfilled. It has no doubt caused a good many to think of things that never would have been thought of had it not been written. Mother Shipton's words are: Carriages without horses shall go, And accidents fill the world with woe, Around the world thoughts shall fly In the twinkling of an eye. Water shall yet more wonders do; Now strange shall yet be true. The world upside down shall be. And gold found at the root of a tree. Through hills man. shall ride And no horse or ass be at his side. Under the water man shall walk; Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk. In the air man shall be seen, In white, in blaok, in green, . Iron in the water shall float As easy as a woooden boat. Gold shall 6e found and shown In a land that's not now known. Fire and water shall wonders do; England shall at last admit a Jew. The world to an end will come In eighteen hundred and eighty-one.

The dead body of Virgil Butt, the man who ran amuck at Marion a week ago Sunday and shot five per sons was found last Sunday in the woods near Marion less than a mile from the scene of the shooting. Attacted by vultures, J. M. Houck began a search for the object of their prey and .found Butt's body in a decaying condition. By his side lay a 22-calibre Remington rifle, a razor pockctknife, pencil and a small bot tle of strychnine tablets. The direct cause of his death is unknown, but it is supposed to have resulted from poisoning. Bloud hounds and officers followed what was thought to be Butt's trail for many miles, and itwas thought he was si ill a fugitive from justice until his body was found and identi fied. The body was buried by the sheriff, without a coroner's inquest. The finding of Butt's body, says a report to the Charlotte Observer, brings an end to one of the most noted criminal records in the histo ry of McDowell county. Butt while in the arinv, murdered the captain of his company and has been involv ed in many other shooting duels. With the exception of Mrs. Butt, whose condition continues critical, the persons shot by Butt are ex pected to recover. Statesville Land mark. For a Muddy Complexion.
