Tillman on Trusts. I'eoplo can say what they please about Senator Tillman, of South Carolina, but ho usually says ex actly what ho thinks (an accomplish :mjnt that few people possess) and that Bay is generally on the right lino in favor of the masses and against tlio few who control trusts, lleeotitly he wrote tho New York Journal as follows and those who will road carefully what ho eays will see that every word ho utters is truo: Tho sinister influence of the sugar trust over the senate isono that may well excite tho uneasiness and angry disgust of every liberty loving American. With equal facility it appears to control legislation in its interest, no matter which party is in power, and tho boldness with which its president proclaims to monopolize the market and fix tho price of sugar, and the coolness with which he an nounces the enormous profits which havo accrued, makes the average citizen wonder how much longer tho American people will stand it. Clupman goes to jail, although he orders his meals from the Arling ton and his cell is furnished most luxuriantly, but Havemeyer, tho sugar trust magnate, goes st ot free under practically a similar charge. Durham Herald. Walks on the Water. Tho Atlanta Constitution says 1'rofessor Robert Cook, a young man about twenty five years of age, who has invented a successful shoe enabling a person to walk on water, is in that city en route to 1 ittsburg, where ho gtns to compete for a novel wager of $1,000. Jle has bet a man in lialtitnore that he can walk down the Ohio river from Pittsburg to Cineinnatti, a distance of 450 miles, in fifteen days. Ho will start about the 14th of June, and is con fident he will win his money. Cook s contrivance, or water shoe, is four teet long, six inches wide and six inches deep. By a system of flaps he is enabled to walk on the water with the greatest ease without danger of sinking. Ho has given exhibitions all over the South, and ms won for himself a world-wide reputation by his wonderful feat. Serious Results of the Earthquake. A special from lioanoke savs : The effect of the recent earthquake is said to have been very demoraliz ing on the people of (.ulea county, many of whom are preparing to make their homes elsewhere. Angel Mountain is said to be badly cracked and nearly all the water has been drained out of Mountain lake. It is also said that the salt wells at Sahville, Sniythe county, have dried up. .

Hood's l'ills are the best family cathartic and liver medicine. Gen tle, reliable, sure. An exchange says that in an Irish court recently an old man was called into the witness box, and, being old and a little blind, instead of going up the stairs that led to tho box, mounted those that led to the bench. The judge took the mistake good humoredly. "Is it a judge you want to be, my good mani" he said. "Ah, sure, your Honor, was the reply, "I'm an ould man now, and mebbe it's all I'm fit for." Best Family Medicine. Mr. CN. Jones, Girard, Ala, says, May lfith, ls'.5: "I was etif- ferine from Catarrh in the head and was cuied hy King's 1 Loyal Germeture. We keep it all the time, and believe that it is the best family medicine there is on the market to day." Germetuer suits all ages in the home. It is so pleasant to take that all like it. It is so harmless that the tenderest babe and most delicate invalids arc always safe in using it. It cures when all elso fails. New package, large bottle, 10S doses, tfl.

He Crawled Into the Firebox, Was Skinned Slightly, But Otherwise Was Not Harmed. Old Jerry Simpson, running on a southern road, between Washington and Richmond, never becomes tired of telling how he received his first "call" and tho lucky way ho pulled through it. It was back in tho seventies, when work on the rail roads all over the country was ex tremely Hat and thousands of men were out of work.

I went around to the ditiereut roads, asking for work, and through frequent visits to the Baldwin works had be come quite well acquainted with the foreman of the locomotive depart ment. "Whenever a new engine is ship jcd to a western road, a roliable man is sent on the new locomotive to protect it from tramps and other vandals. It hapiieiied that ono ot these engines, ordered for the Den ver and Uio Grande road, had just been completed, and tho foreman put in agood word for me, especially as none of the Baldwin people hanker after this job. You can gamble on it I jumped at the chance, "Twj days after being offered the position the new engine and she was a beauty was shifted into the middle of the last western freight, and we began our western journey. We went over the Philadelphia and middle divisions all right, but it was on the Pittsburg division that my first 'call' came off This division takes in the Alleghany mountains, and the tough places on it almost equal those on the Iiocky moun tains. "The engineer who handled tho throttle on the engine ahead was Billy Duncan, and I knew him well, Ixith jK-rsonally and through reputa tion. Ho was a feat less runner, and would never jump from an engine, no matter how close a place he got into. Duncan invited me to ride with him on the engine, but I de clined, as I had chaige of that Uio Grande engine, and waned to eo her landed safely at her destination. "So I went back to my charge just a minute before we passed out of the Altoona yards, and in a few minutes had made myself comfort able v ith a couple of blankets I had brought along. "The night was a dismal one, be ing foggy, with just enough rain to make it uncomfortable. I kept awake for about an hour, and then concluded to take a little snooze. "About the time I got comfort ably fixed and was dozing, with my eyes balf shut, I was startled by a loud, long piercing call for brakes from the engineer. I knew Bill Duncan would never have let out such a blast as that unless in the presence of great danger. Quickly throwing off the blankets that covered me, I jumped op and peered out through the darkness. We were going down the grade on the west side of Horseshoe curve, and cutting the foggy mist at the rate of forty miles an hour. "About fifty yards ahead of Bill's engine were the red lights of a caboose, and t ben I knew the flag man bad not come back far enough to stop us on the wet rails. A run in was sore. There was not much chance for me to jump, as it was infernsliy dark, and I knew there was a bit h cliff close to the track on one side that would burl me back onder the w heels, and a precipice on tho other steep enough to break every bone in my body if I onco started to roll down its steep sides. "About that time I thought of j praying, and was on tne poini or uropping to my KncoB aim proying to bo forgiven for my past sms wiien I luckily thought of tho Drebox ol the new engine 1 had in charge, and ae quick as thought I threw open the door and crawled in. 1 had just landed on my knees on tho grato bars when there came an awiui crash, such as I never heard in my lite beforo, and I felt my engine going np and then down, and the sickening sensation ot tiioso lew seconds were paralyzing. 1 was tumbled about pretty roughly, and had the skin knocked o(T my legs and my head cnt, but nothing could crush me, tor I was in an iron safe that was well buil', although it was never intended for a life-preserver, I thought once, however, that it was all np with me, lor 1 felt the boiler collapsing under tho weight of tho loaded cars that wetc piling up on top of it. "After a while everything was still, and. knowing that the worst was over, unless tho wreckage took c,' d. v ! M ? 5 i n : i.ttiiiiiiiiiiiii.i. - 'iii.iii! tire and roa&ted me alive, I made an effort to crawl out, but could not do bo, as car trucks and frames were piled above the wreck. I thought it was a month until the w.-eeking crew came, snd then I began to cry out like a crazy man and implore help. Tho wreckers must have thought I was pinned down by the engine, with my legs crushed, for they gave all their attention to me, snd after hard work, got me out, and beyond the biuises already mentioned, I was as sound as before the wreck. "Poor old Billy, the engineer, kept up his reputation to the last by refusing to jump, and was smashed into jelly under his engine, as were also his fireman and two trauis riding in a box car next my engine. That was my first 'call,' snd it was a close one, but the firebox saved my life, and I have never hcaid of another man pulling through a wreck in the same manner. My second 'call' has uot come yet, and I m not anxious tor if, 1 can tell you." Chicago Inter Ocean. Honest Christians. The man who is not just as hon est in trading as he is praying is not a Christian. It is not impos sible to 13 a sinner in business and a saint in religion. The thief in the board of trade is a hypocrite in tho Church. We do not believe that all successful business men are diahonest. It is satiefactioii to be lieve that in every department of trade and commerce there are men whose principles are as pure as gold. There are merchants, bankers, me chanics, farmers, and professional men everywhere, who live as up right in their btinititss transaction as they do in their domestic rela tions. There are men ho would prefer poverty to ill gotten wealth. Granttd that a man might gain money by lying, what kind of a reward is it after all! Riches gained at the exiiense of conscience are like corroding acids: they rat away the foundation of life and leave their poaes..r poor indeed. It never pays to lie. It matters riot what the motive may be, the loss is always greater thin the gain. Ex emption frutn punis'imtnt or dis grace is a poor compensation for a tarnished conscience. Mafses of wealth have no power to confer lasting joys. Title, wealth, learn ing, honor, and fame are trifles com pared with a clean conscience.

There is one thing that can be said ot well nigh all of the Nortli Carolina newspapers, and particu larly of the country weeklies. They are to bo found, so far as we recall, always on the side of morality and honesty. Many of thorn are man aged by professors of religion who are firm believers in the Christian Scriptures. With but few excep tions, as we recall the post, have wo found any exchange taking a doubtful or compromising position on moral questions. It is certain ly a hopeful sign in a materialistic, sceptical age (and it is not confined to the world but may bo found in the churches) that tho secular news papers of a commonwealth are not the organs of immorality and infi delity. It is a good sign also that a newsnaocr of pronounced oppo sition to Christianity and tho inspi ration of tho Holy Bible, tho most sacred of books and dear to most of the homes in North Carolina, could long live in the noble, conservative, Bible reverencing state. It is bet ter to love and reverence tho truth without fi no human learning than to possess that acquisition and tight God nd His Truth. A state has much to build on that honor. God and whoso people are church going and firmly fixed on tho side ot the right, the true, tho good, tho hon est, tho noble, the moral. A man's brilliancy and fine attainments amount to but little tor tho good of humanity and tho upbuilding of a state if ho has forgotten the God of his fathers, lives for self and treats with contempt tho Book of books, (iod's own great gift to man. The North Carolina pitsa is but little if any tainted with unright eous principle and modern sccpti- ism. He is a bold editor indeed in North Carolina who would assail the Holy Word, the foundation of home and society and all civic pro gress that means permanency, hon or, glory, and who would stand forth the organ of immorality and impiety. Some of the pajers, through blinded partisanship, may defend some bad man or condone some vicious act or favor some political principle that is oppressive and ruinous, but they will not ad vocate or defend as abstract prin ciples dishonesty in business, lying in every day life, gross indulgences, cruelty to the helpless, wanton at tacks upon tho Bible and so on. ilmington Messenger. Hires Rootbeer Cannot be Imitated. V It is doubtful if any modern com modity, except money, has been counterfeited more than Hires Root- beer. By progressive and costly advertising this article has attained a trade-mark peculiar to itself, and its wide popularity and immense sale is an irresittable attraction for the unscrupulous imitator. Justice, however, is beginning to realize that tho public must be protected from 8ucu practices as is evinecu by the decision just rendered by Judges Finletter and Gordon in Philadelphia, Court ot Common Pleas No. 3, restraining George A. Hires, a namesake of Mr. Charles E. Hires from manufacturing and selling a prcpsration under the name of Hires Rootbeer. This is a move in the right direction, as this superior article should not be substituted by inferior stuff.
