JUDGE SCHENCK'S ADDRESS
CF WELCOME UPON THE ARRIVAL OF
LIBERTY BELL AT GUILFORD
BATTLEGROUND.
It is rather Lie, but we believe
tho following beautiful address of
welc.tmo to "Liberty Htli" by Judge
Schcnek, at Rittlegronnd, will be
read with interest :
"Mv Countrymen, and the dear
'Old Bull' :
Wo welcome you with joyous
hearts and patriotic enthusiasm to
this battlefield of "Ouilford Court
House.''
With uncovered heads and rever
ence profound we welcome the
"Libeity Boll" to this consecrated
spot.
James G. Ulaine said that "the
United States was the only nation
011 earth which had a birthday."
Ho might have added that it was
tho only nation whose birth was an
nounced with a Liberty Bell whose
mission was to 'proclaim lilterty
throughout the land ind to all the
inhabitants thereof." It is this his
torical fact which causes us to as
semble together to day, with happy
hearts, around this same "old bell''
and gaze upon it with wonder and
affictioii. To meditate upon the
sacred memories which cluster
around it, and to lecall that it an
nounced the most important fact
save one which ever occurred on
eKrth. Never, since it was an-
nounctd from Calvary, "it is finish
ed," has a more glorious message
been proclaimed to mankind than
this "old bell" rang out at Inde
pendence Hall.
Tsorili Carolina Las been wedded
to the old bell ever suice Septem
ber, 1777, one hundred uud eigh
teen years ago. It was necessary,
then, to convey it way from Phil
adelphia to escape the vandalism of
the British army. In this, its (iisi
jounuy, North Carolina and Vir
ginia iroops, 1 rum v asmngtoti s
army, formed its escort of safety
and honor. As North Carolina was
first to instruct her delegates in
Congress to declare for iudepend
ent-e, so she was tiret to surround
this emblem of liberty with the
gni s and bayonets of her soldiers.
Yon, gentlemen, are the successors
01 tho.-e biave Carolinians in the
present itineracy. May your mis
sion of protection be as successful
as theirs !
Another historical fact makes
your visit to this battle field more
impressive and appropriate:
Three other silent beings of earth
meet lieix, again alter a parting of
one hundred and elevm years -they
si'KAK Nor death has made
the tongue of William Hooper and
John Penn voiceless in the grave.
Their remtius lie there acrose the
way, and is it not tit that the old
bell which proclaimed tho inde
peiidence they declared, Ik? silent
also. Lveiy ear winch heard the
pit clamatiou of liberty made i
now tiilent in the giave, and it seems
it was a divine providence that the
bell too, should be silent with them.
We greet tho "oid bell" again be
cause this is its first vitsit to a battle
field of liberty. It comes o mingle
with the scenes which took place
here the 15th ol March, 1781, whet:
the British army fled from before
the face of the Americans with Gen
eral Greene in hot pursiut. At
Wilmington, North Carolina, Corn
wallis scarcely took time to change
his linen until he resumed his flight
to Yorktown, where, on the lttth
day of October, 1781, he and hit,
whole army were captured. York
town only completed what Guilford
began. It was "Guilfora" which
made "Yorktown" possible. Here
the proclamation made by the old
bell was sealed with the blood of
Carolinians, Yirginiar.s and Dela
wareans. They made good the
prophetic promise ot liberty on this
sacred ground. Blood is the seal
of liberty as it 's the requirement
of forgiveness.
Then let us mingle together in
pride, as patriots, gathering around
the old bell on the old battleground
let our hearts be joyous and free!
"Bell ot the wilderness once wast
thou,
Bel! oi the State and of history, now
Bell of the battle, when war muet be,
Bell of the church, school and in
dustry, And men shall say, its thou hangest
alone,
God's voice has breathed in thine
awful tone
Bell, in whose ringing, all is well
Iliri2 to us ever vM bell ! God's
bell!'

Murdered Hit Entire Family.
A Chiciffo diapal'sh of Wednes
day sava: An entire latnily of six
father, mother, wifn and three
children were murdered last night
bv Richard Kluttke. a Lakeview
carpenter, who then completed his
woi k by killing uimsolf. 1 lie ueau
aro : Bichard. Kate, John, Mina,
Mina. (his mother) Anna and hm
ma Klattke, agea ranging from 7 to
73 years. Klattke used a revolver
to do the bloody work. He was
an anarchist and of unsound mind
Ho had fos en out of work for some
lime, and this fact, tho police be
lieve. led to the terrible tragedy.
The bodies were discovered in
the house early this morning by
neighbor who called to inform their.
that he had found employment for
him. Lach victim had been shot
through the brain, and the murder
er seems to have laid his plans with
the utmost deliberation, and carried
them out to the letter. Sharpened
knives were found beside the corpse
of Klattke. indicating that he was
prepared to cotnplote Ins bloody
work by other means, should tho
bullets fail.
This is the third time a husband
has killed his entire family in Chi
cago within a year. July 0 last,
fritz rellman, a stono mason, turn
ed on the gas and destroyed the
lives of himself, his wife and four
children, rellman had beet, sun
struck, and this is believed to have
unsettled hie mind. Iss than a
month s;o, came tl.e crime of Jens
Hansen, alias Peter Ilougard. Han
sen, by turning on tho gas wivd
a family of wife and five children,
and added to the ctimo of murder
that of suicide Pusinesa troubles
were responsible for Hansen's des
peration. Hicki for February,
New moon on 13th will precipi
tate quick changi) to warmer, and
heavy storms will fall about 13th
to 16th. Renewed cold will set in
promptly behind storms, and follow
to the. Atlantic by the 17th. The
20th to 21st will bring a return of
storm conditions, resulting 111 rain
and snow and ushering in another
blast of cold. The 25th to 28th is
a storm period in which a mercury
disturbance will figure, hence sleet
may be expected along with rain
and snow. Of course the far south
will not have these wintry phases
of storm periods, but much cooler
weather will follow, even in those
extremes. We are not fully out
of the Jupiter period at this time,
and the cold .wiil still reach into
tho south in modified degrees, as in
1894 and 1S95. Tne month ends
as January, with gales and cold
wave following full moon on the
548th and perigee on the 29th.
The Proper Time
When the mobt benefit is to be de
rived from a good medicine, is early
in the year. This is the season
when the tired laaly, weakened or
gans and nervous system yearn tor
a builiiing-np medicine like Hood's
Sarsaparilla. Many wait for the
open spring weather and, in fact,
dc-Uy giving attention to their
physical condition so long that a
long tsiege of sickness i inevitable.
To rid the system of the impurities
accumulated during the winter
season, to purify the blood and to
invigorate the whole system, there
is nothing qnal to Hood's Sarsapa
riila. Don't put it off, but take
lkod's Sarsaparilla now. It will
do you good. Read the testimoni
al published in behalf of Hood's
SarsapHrilla,all from reliable, grate
ful people. They tell the story,

"Byron White, who is jiow fann
ing at the A. A. Helton place is a
very clever young man small of
statue but good as you generally
see. When he started in he was
warned on account of bis size, when
he went to cut a cornstalk to watch
the direction of the wind. Not
withstanding this advice we hear
that he got careless and last week
one of hia neighbors had to come
and pull hiin out from under a stalk.
He could have gotten out all right
but accidentally an ear of corn had
been left on the stalk."

DEATH ON THE RAILROAD.
FATAL FALL OF MR. JOHN F. TWEED, OF
BUNCOMBE, FROM A TRAIN
ON THE A. & S. R.
Mr. John F. Tweed, one of Bun
combe's most subBtautWl and high
ly rc spected citizens, sayt tl.e Abbe
ville Citizen, was the victim of a
horrible accident that terminated fa
tally Thursday evening.
It is not known precisely how iho
accident occurred, but the facts aro
believed to be substantially as fol
lows : Mr. Tweed was in Asheville
Thursday en business. He spent
the day here, and at clop. in. lelt
on train 16, southbound, in charge
of Conductor Overton, on the Asho-
villu and Spartanburg ta'lnmd
When the station signal for Bnsbee,
eight miles from Asheville, was
sounded, Mr. Tweed was seen to
get up from his seat, go to tho car
door and step out upon the platform
That was the lust seen ot him by
passcngeis or crew, for no one was
sent back to investigate. It is
thought that Mr. Tweed intended
to git oft at Bnsbee and go to the
residence of a relative to spend the
night. W ben be reached tho plat
form he probably lost his balance
and fell off the moving train.
Mr. 1 weed 8 body was found
shortly after by George Brown.
Light ribs were broken and hie col
lar bono wa also broken. The in
jured mail lived less than an hour,
dying before a physician could
reach him. Watch was kept over
the remains until early this morn
ing, when they were removed to
the home of Mr. Tweed's brother
in-law, Adolphus Gibson,, with
whom he had purposed spending
tho night.
Coroner L. B. Mcl'rayer was no
tified and went to the scene, and
the inouest began at 10 o'clock.
The coroner's jury was composed
of N. A. Penland, J. W. Brown,
. M. Nettles, W. R. West, A. B.
Case and U. D. Murray. Afterex-
amining a few witnesses tho inquest
was continued till haturday at 2 p.
m., in order to have members ot
the train crew present as witnesses.
Mr, Tweed was held in high es
teem by the people all over the
county. lie was an upright and
good citizen, and his U-rrible death
will be saddening to bis many
friends. lie lived on Cane creek,
12 miles southeast of Asheville, and
wss about H years old. About
five years ago he married Miss Ash
worth, daughter of Rufus Ash
worth, of Fairview. His wife and
three children, the youngest ojily a
week old, survive.
Mr. Iwead owned considerable
property in Asheville.
Ihe funeral services will be beld
Sunday at 11 b. m. at Tweed's
chapel, near the late residence of
tho deceased, and will be5onducted
by Rev. J. A. Sronce.
He Cultivated the Love of Giving.
At a dinner party in Baltimore,
at which George Peabody was one
of the guests, some ohe inquired :
"Which did you enjoy most, Mr.
Peabody, miking your money or
giving it away ?"
"Weli," answered Mr. Peabody.
slowly, and Johns Hopkins was ob
served to be deeply interested in
the answer, "I enjoyed making
money. I think it is a great
pleasuie to make money. And
when the idea was first suggested
to me that 1 should give money
away, it did not please me at all.
In tact, it distressed me. But 1
thought the matter over, and con
cluded I'd try it on a small scale.
So 1 built the first of the model
tenement houses in London. It
was a hard pull, but after it was
done, I went around among the
poor people living in the rooms, so
clean and comfortable, and bad
quite a new teeling. 1 enjoyed it
very much. So 1 gave some more
money and the feeling increased.
And now lean truly say that, tnirjli
as I enjoyed making money, I en
joyed giving it away a great deal
better. ' San Francisco Argonaut,

"She Stretched Out Hor Hand to the Poor."
Iu the death of Mrs. Julius A.
Gray, this community has lost ouo
of its most worthy and estimable
ladies ; her children an affectionate
and devoted mother ; her church an
active and consistent member j the
numerous benevolent societies to
which she belonged a most invalu
able co worker, and the poor a
generous friend and sympathizer.
The charities ot Mrs. Gray were
like heavenly dew, falling silently
and without observation, and many
a hearth; tone has been made happy,
without the know ledge of its
benefactress. "She reached forth
her hands to tho needy,' and "her
own works praise her in the gates."
Tho funeral ceremonies were con
ducted by the Iiev. Dig. Smith, at
the family mansion this morning at
eleven o'clock. A large circle of
relatives and friends wero in at
tendance, and the floral offerings
were most eloboratc and exquisite,
consisting of harps, anchors, Arc, of
beautiful design; lilies, orchids,
roses, and many other choice cut
flowers were in great profusion.
The services were most impress
ive, and the addresses of the pastors
of her church were exceedingly ap
propriate and eloquent.
It is a sad bereavement to any
community to lose as good a wo
man as Airs. Gray, and the sympa
thies and condolence of our com
munity are extended to her stricken
family.

Judge Clark's Return,
J udge Walter Clark has returned
to Raleigh from a month's trip to
Mexieo.drtririg which time be visited
twenty of the twenty-seven States
which compose that liepubbc.
From an interview with the Judge
we extract the following from the
Kaleigh INews and Observer:
"The country is undoubtedly ex
tremely prosperous and developing
more rapidly at this time than any
other on the planet, Japan not ex
cepted. A very instructive and in
terestmg article by liomero, the
Mexican Minister in Washington,
appeared in the North American
Review of June last, in which he
arrives virtually at the same con
clusions which 1 have from my ow n
observations as to the effects upon
Mexican development and pros
perity caused by the Mexican dollar
remaining at par, while our dollar
i as nearly doubled in value. Ibcse
also are the views of the Americans
which I met in Mexico, and I met
nnndreds of them. I went there to
see the country and learn all I could
about it, and I was as inquisitive as
any Vankee could be. I met Presi
dent Diaz, members of the National
Supreme Court, ot the State courts,
Governors of States, Generals and
men of all ranks, including the man
that followed the plow. I talked
with all of them, and with our
countrymen wherever I met them.
Who I was and my own views were
known to very few, except to the
higher officials, to whom, of course,
personal introduction was neces
sary, lheconntry is unquesiion-
bly very prosperous, with wonder
ful resources, which are just begin
ning to be fairly developed.
A New Blockading Trick.
There is no end to the cute re
sources of those who are bent on
cheating the internal revenue, says
the Charlotte News, and a new
wrinkle came to light yesterday
Iievenne agent Gresham found a
suspicious looking sugar barrel at
the Southern freight depot, con
signed to Salisbury. He broke
open the barrel anil inside of it was
an empty 24 pollon cask, with the
stamp intact. The outfit was smash
ed up. The plan, of course, wss
to have the cask refilled, without
paying for new stamps to put or. it.

Mood; and his Mother.
There ia tarely a great man with
out a great and good mother. Peo
ple often wonder where a man who
ris-s from an humble homo got his
greatness. Generally it is from Lis
unselfish mother who spent herself
to give him opportunity. At the
funeral of 1) wight L. Moody'a.
mother last week the great evangel
ist told ot the trying days after the
lather died leaving the family bank
rupt ; how the creditors took all the
property, even to the wood from
the shed, how the children, himself
included, had to stay in led one
morning until school time because
there wa no wood for a fire but a
neighbor brought a load of wood
before night and the family waa
kept together. Mr. Moody read
from the Rible and from a book of
verses given his mother by the late
Dr. Evereit. Turning to the face
of his mother and in the gentle
voice which has turned thousands,
he said as he shook his head : "(rod
blcf s you mother, w e iove you still."
"She made or homc.poor though
it was" said ho, "the last place on
earth to us. She taught us that
provcrty was no disgrace. During
the lirst years of her widowhood
she wept herself to sleep night
after night and we r;cvcr knew of
it until laU-r years."
If yon want to know what made
Dwight L. Moody one of the great
est men, full ot broad sympathy,
yon have it here. News and Ob
server. Canada is to strengthen its de
fences and increase its army. This
shows that it is time the United
States were putting in order their
own defences', especially on tho
Canadian line.

There is a difference between medi
cines and medicines.
Those of to-day. as a rule, differ from
those of the past in many respects.
Fuliy as great is the difference be
tween Dr. Kinp's
ROYAL GEfUIETUER
and the ordinary medicines of to-day.
It ia unlike them in
THESE FIVE THINGS:
1 . It does not taste like a medi
cine. It is as pleasant to take as
lemonade and makes a most refreshing
drink.
2. It never nauseates the most
delicate stomach.
3. It does not swap off one dis
ease tor another. It does not set np
one form of disease in order to relieve
another as is so often the case.
4. It eontains no atcobol or
opium in any form and is always)
harmless even when given to a bbe
one day old.
5. It does not patch him ply. It
cures. It reaches as nothing- else
do-s to the hidden sources oi disease
in the blood and removes the cause. It
does this with an ease and power that
have never been equaled.
