A FAMILY MOVE TO INDIANA.
THURSDAY, JUNE 2, 1904.
INTOLERANCE.
Orators are given to the habit
of holding mankind up to the
highest ideals. Optimism flour
ishes and pessimism languishes;
and to listen to the spread eagle
ebulitions of some of these one
would conclude that the reign of
the devil was tottering to its fall,
and the ushering in of the dawn
of the millenium is at hand.
After all these broadsides, the
fact remains, that man is an ani
mal, and, as such he admires ad
illation; as such, he is pleased at
being stroked kindly by affecion
ate hands; as such, he likes place
and preferment; as such, he likes
to be told he is charitable, intel
lectual, holy and good; and that,
as such, he is contributing of his
sterling qualities much for the an
nihilation of wickedness, and con
tributing greatly to the happi
ness of his kind. After all, man
is an animal before whom it will
not always do to cast pearls, lest
in his wrath he turn again and
rend you. Favors are nor al-

Bob, N. C, May 27. W. D. Harris
Esq., had a severe bilious attack last
Saturday and is, at this writing, not
much improved.
Joseph Laughter, of Cooper's Gap,
Polk county, sold his personal prop
erty some days ago, and left with his
family for Indiana where he expects
to reside in the future. His leaving
has created some surprise. He had
planted a large two horse crop, and
seemed to be doing well, and was ap
parently contented and happy. This
is not Mr. Laughter's first surprise,
but he is a kind hearted man and his
friends here wish him well.
There are many calls for county
offices, but "few will be chosen."
Our good neighbor, Dock Jones lost
a fine cow a few weeks ago from eat
ing something poison in the fields.
The hail storm of the 18th was not
so damaging on Cane Creek as it was
first thought it had been. It is be
lieved a fairly good crop of fruit jet
remains on the trees.
Edgar Harris, son of J. P. Harris,
a soldier in the U. S. Army, recently
wrote a letter to his parents in which
he said that his regiment was ordered
to the Philipine Islands and was ex
pected to leave Washington on the
20th instant. In bidding his friends
good bve he said he expected to return
to the U. S. within two years. Edgar
is a good bov, and is naturally very
popular at home.
Mr. Marion Uibbs called to see us
Sunday. He married Miss Hannah
Laughter, daughter of Merrit Laugh
ter deceased, with whom he lived un
til they had a family of five children.
Two years ago Mrs. Gibbs desired to
tro to a better country. Mr. Gibbs
not agreeing with her, she took her
five children with her to Indiana where
thev have since resided. She writes
she is doing well and is well satisfied
Mr. Gibbs is regarded as a good
Christian and a man who attends
strictly to his own business.
Mr. James Kuff, who lives on a
mountain farm, said to-day that the
hail had damaged him very little and
that he now has young beans.

The orchester played for a pleasure
party Wednesday evening last at Miss

A number of our young ladies and
gentlemen enjoyed an outing to Mr.
Tate Williams' Friday night.
A picnic and fishing partv too, was
enjoyed at Twitty by some of our young
people, the guests of Mr. Curtvs Twit
ty. We can vouch for that being full
of life and hospitality.
Mr. Bill Hughs invited a few friends
to his home vesterdav to have ice cream
with him. He is improving.
Had quite a good rain Sunday and
Monday. Farms and gardens were
needing it.
Master Paul Moore, son of Mr. Lo

Charlotte last week with Mr. Mooring,
returning alone. Little Paul is the
proud hero of the city this week.
Mrs. J. B. Eaves gave an examina
tion and entertainment to her "kinder

the families of the children and a few
friends were invited, The little ones
looked charming and acquitted them

with their advancement.
Dr. Ervin is still very low.

DEATH OF MRS. C. A. BLANTON.
Exultant . Shouts Exchanged Between
the Japanese Army and Fleet.
Tokio, May 29. At 7 :30, as the sun
was sinking "beneath the horizon, the
flag of the Land of the Rising Sun float
ed above the blood-sodden Nanshan hill,
while the shouts of "banzai" swelled
from hill to hill and re-echoed from
squadron to fort.
The Japanese paid for their victory in
8.500 killed and woundbd. To the Rus
sians the humiliation of defeat was in
tensmed bv the loss of sixty-eight can
non and ten machine guns, while lying
dead in the forts and trenches were 500
men, the victims of the accuracy of Jap
anese lons-distance marksmanship and
of close-ranee fighting.
Gen. Oku, in command of the Jap
anese, began his aggressive movement
on the Russian position at midnight on
Wednesday. He assigned the Fourth
division to. the right, with instructions
to swing around Kin Chu and move
south. He gave the First division the
center, and the left was allotted to the
Third. During the night a terrible
thunder storm, accompanied by a heavy
ram, broke over the advancing army
and impeded the movements of the men.
It had been planned to begin the hre at
4 o'clock in the morning, but a dense
fog had followed the storm, and it was
an hour later before all of the attillery
under Gen. Uichiyama opened on Nan-
shan hill. A detachment seized Kin
Chou castle and then the entire infantry
force gradually moved forward.
The gunners on the lortihed heights
were not slow in giving smart response
to the Japanese attack, and soon a vig
orous fire and counter-fire was in pro
gress, to which the big guns of the Jap
anese squadron lent noisy chime. At 6
o'clock the atmosphere had cleared up
sufficiently for the naval marksman
ship to work effectively.

moat careful cultivation and the
most propitious seasons will fail
to produce a crop.
Many a man is selfish, ambi
tious, mercenary and intolerant.
He desires success for himself,
but hates in his inmost soul the
man who would come between
him and his cherished aims;
there is no code of ethics in his
daily life to prevent his falling
upon his rival with ungloved
hands by way of insinuation and
inuendo; there are no forces
heaven above or in the earth be
neath to stop his mad rush for
place and power. Selfishness and
intolerance are the ruling traits
his character; and he would,
if he could, overcome his adver
sanes by fair means or foul. O

Mrs. A. L Smart Celebrates the Anni
versary of Her Birth.
Correspondent of The Tribune.
Henrietta, Mav 31. A large crowd
of friends and relatives gathered at
the residence of Mrs. M. L. Smart,
two miles from Ellenboro Sunday to
celebrate her 71st birthday. Over two
hundred friends were present from
Forest City, Bostic, Henrietta, Caro
leen and surrounding communities.
All took baskets well ill led and at
noon a most bountiful feast was
spread under the large friendly shade
trees which are so numerous about
the old home. After a pleasant hour or
two, spent by the older people in re
viewing old by-gone tales and inci
dents, and living over a half century
of the past, a sermon was preached by
Rev. H. D. Harrill, of Forest City, to
which all present were very attentive.
Mrs. Smart was born May 29th, 18-
33; and raisied near where Henrietta
now stands and was married to Mr.
William Smart, now deceased, at an
early age. There was bora to them
ten children of which the following
seven are living: J. L. Smart, a pros-
erous farmer of Lllenboro; A. L.
mart, for many years a very enter
prising merchant at Bostic, fifteen
years of which time he was depot
agent for the Seaboard, also post
master. He is now head clerk in the
grocery department of the Henrietta
Mills store No. 2 at Caroleen. G. It.
Smart, S. T. Smart and W. K. Smart
are successful farmers, the last two
farming at the old homestead; and
Dr. J. B. Smart, a successful and
able physician, of Caroleen. The
writer has often been told by one of
Dr. Smart's classmates that he was
one of the best and ablest students in
his class at the medical college at
Chattanooga, Tenn.; and Mrs. C. O.
Bostic, of Bostic.
Mrs. Smart is seventy-one years of
age, has been a faithful and consis
tent member of the Baptist church for
over fifty years and is the daughter of
Mrs. Nancy Hollineld who died a few
years ago at the age of 100 years.
Funeral of Mrs. Susan Pintuff Preach
ed at Kistler's Chapel.
Correspondence of The Tribune.
Shiloh, Mav 31. Rev. B. M. Ham-
rick preached the funeral of Mrs.
Susan Pintuff at Kistler's Chapel
last Sunday. She has been dead a
little more than a year. Why the
memorial service was not held at the
time, I do not know. Mrs. Pintuff
hrst joined the Baptist church, but
after her husband joined the Methodist
church, she then attached herself to
the same church and lived a consis
tent member until her death. In all
she lived a member of the church for
about forty-one years. Her husband
and four children survive her.

Blanton was formerly of this place.
but had been living at Caroleen for
some years. He married Miss Marv
Tony while living there. They did
not dwell together quite two years un
til Mrs. Blanton was taken sick of
pheumonia fever. She suffered for
something over a month. She leaves
husband and a little infant son to
mourn their loss. Mrs. Blanton is
well spoken of by every one that knew
her, as a fine and affectionate woman,
nave Deen torn ner remains were
carried to a church somewhere near
Sunshine for interment on Monday
after her death. I suppose she for
merly lived some where near that
place.

Eight Horses and a Stock of Vehicles
Consumed Only $450 Insurance.
Special to The Tribune.
Henrietta, May 28. The large sta

Henrietta-Caroleen Stock and Livery
company, witn eignt horses, a large
siock 01 new carriages and vehicles.
ana an otner contents, including a
large amount of feed put in yesterday,
was destroyed by hre last night. be
tween 12 and 1 o'clock. The origin of
tne nre is unknown. It is quite a heavy
loss to the company, as they carried
only $450 insurance. Mr. Lewis Scog'
gins, living near-by, was awakened bv
the pitiable and almost human cries of
the horses, and iras the first on the
scene, but too late to save anything or
to get the horses out, as the entire sta
ble, with 5,000 pounds of hay, which
was put in yesterday, was on fire and
the roof ready to tumble in. A brisk
wind was blowing and the building
was soon in asnes. rne company plac
ed an order for new vehicles this morn'
ing, and will be ready to resume bus
mess in a few days.
It seems that livery stables are more
susceptible to the ravages of fire at
these places than any other line of
business, as this is the third one de
stroyed at Caroleen and and this place
within the past six years, including
nineteen horses in all. A stable upon
this same site burned nearly six years
ogo containing six horses, one at Hen

horses. Morenight watchmen and less
