The Greensboro Telegram, com menting on the conditions at the Sol diers' Home, which make it impos sible to receive any more men Into the home until more room Is pro vided, except as a vacancy Is made by death, notwithstanding the fact that there are many applications out standing and many men knocking at the door who should be admitted, makes the wise suggestion that In making more room for the old sold iers room should also be provided for their wives. ',. The Greensboro paper says: "A meeting of the directors of'the Soldiers' Home was held in Raleigh day before yesterday and one of the reports presented to the board recited the fact that there are a hundred old soldiers knocking in vain for admit tance into the home. This is a dis grace upon the state of North Caro lina. One is tempted to say that probably the state is depending on the Carnegie foundation to come to the relief of the destitute Confed erate soldier. But we refrain, seeing that the next legislature will be asked for an appropriation for more room at the Soldiers' Home. And while the legislature is about it, it ought to pass an appropriation sufficient to take care of not only the destitute old soldiers, but their wives as well - The south has never yet done enough for the men who went to war in its behalf." Jt is taken for granted that when the legislature meets again it will so - increase the appropriation as to take care of all the men who come to it in their old age ashing for a home. Any other course is not to be thought of. The state has heretofore pro' vided as well as it could for these men and it will continue this policy More able to provide it will provide more liberally in the future than in the past. But in providing a home for the men the state should also pro vide for their wives and widows. It provides for the widows in the pen sion fund and it should also provide for the wives and widows at the home. Aside from the sentiment, and that should be considered, it is as much the duty of the state to care for these women as for the men Rome states do it. North Carolina should follow the example set and take care of the women as well as all of the men. PLENTY OF MI D. The Sanford. Expres says the sec tion around Sanford leads the world in the production of mud. It says: '."The section of country around Sanford leads the world in the pro duction Of mud not cheap, low grade mudj but mud of a very ex pensive . quality. .. Our mud is not packed in neat boxes, labeled "Mud Made, in Lee", and protected by tariff duties like Carnegie's steel or Have fQeyer's sugar. ' It spreads out thiekiy over iong red miles of coun try roads. '.?"Ndt one mile . of Lee county's roads is Improved. . They, are all shift ing ' sand or mud deep, narrow streaks", of sticky, oozy, slimy mud. The farmer fights with mud when he takes, his load to market. It is Said to cost him 25 cents a ton to haul his produce, .while the- thrifty Mecklen burger on mudless roads does it for half as -much. The Lee county farm er . pays for hie mud .in decrease) profits, in harder labor. In idle acres, in poorer . schools: his , wife and daughterspav in isolation and lone liness. - '.:' ' , "Js'or Is the farmer the only man The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there Is at least one dreadful .disease that science has Deen able, to cure In all its stages, and that Is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Ca tarrh being a constitutional disease, reautres a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh "Cure is taken inter nally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous -surfaces of the system thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constftu. tion and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. - Send for list of testimonials. Address, F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O. Sold by Druggists, 75c. ' Take Hall's Family Pills for constl. pation. in our county who pays the mud tax. Mud puts its price on the fuel that the townsman buys from the farmer and other things that he uses during the winter season.v. We can think of no way in which our people could get less fun for the same money. All honor to the good people of Jones- boro township who have made the first, protest against tjie bad roads tax. i ....... , Could any argument for good roads be bettor than that? Lee count', the baby county", has shown itself to be, in many respects, one of the best counties in the state and we do not believe it will long consent to the payment of the "mud tax". Such a lesson as this from The Express is easily learned and the Lee county people are apt pupils. They are tak ing a little time to get their bear ings before setting their course, but when once they get the proper direc tion we may be sure tbey will follow And by the way, Wake county is paying the "mud tax" also. It has made a start at road improvement, but only a start. We hope all the citizens of Wake will ponder this matter and see if some way cannot be devised to get'rid of some of the surplus mud. Asheville, N. C, is going to adver tise itself in newspapers all over the country. Other good towns would do well to follow Asheville's example. Advertising is what made Milwau kee famous. New Bern , Sun. . If Asheville is going to do the same kind of advertising as Milwau kee it will find that "it pays to ad vertise". It will soon become as famous as Milwaukee. North Carolina simply cannot be beat at anything. ; For instance: "The Asheville Gazette-News car ried this item in its,, local columns a few days ago: 'The largest steer of a fine bunch of 138 cattle recently purchased by W. M. Hill & Co., from John O'Donnell, was brought in this morning from the' feeding pens for slaughter. The animal tipped the scales at 1,826 pounds and brought a top-notch price, something in the neighborhood of $120. And still, while this state can supply such beef the people depend on the western markets for their fresh meats." This from the Charlotte Observer shows what the state can do in a line of industry that is almost en tirely neglected. Such beef cattle as are grown are grown as a side-line and not as a business. And we con tinue to ship our beef and pork from the west when we can grow steers worth $120 apiece. Commends The Times. Mr. .T. V. Simms. Publisher Evening Times, Raleigh, N. C. Dear Sir: Permit me to commend most heartily your, course, as announced in your Issue of Wednesday last, in deciding to "cut out" all whiskey advertisements. You are giving us a live, up-to-date afternoon paper, and it is rapidly find ing Its way into the homes of our beau tiful city, and these homes are to be more or Jess influenced by their daily reading. How important therefore that tmi - Evening Times should not only stand for that which is wholesome, pure and good. , but that Its columns should be kept free from those things that are hurtful and dangerous. I am sure, sir, your action will be most heartily appreciated by the great body of vour readers.. With best wishes. ' Tours very truly, .''-' "N. B. BROUGHTON. Raleigh,. N. . G, March 18. From W. V.

Thursday afternoon between the hours of six and seven o'clock the street sweeper was working on Martin street. The streets had evidently not been sprinkled, if so it was some time be fore, as the dust was imply tierce, in fact unbearable to the pedestrian. The same night, this sweeper was working up and down Fayettevllle street, just as the ladies and the child ren were going to and from the show. And the same circumstances were i-x- stlng. Noi only is this injurious to the itizen of Raleigh, but it is just as bad on the merchants along these streets. Many of the merchants have their spring goods on display find for this sweeper to come along the street raising the duet, such us it was doing Thursday afternoon, it does a great Injury to their stock. The streets could be thoroughly prinkled at a later hour and then the sweeper gone over them with out any inconvenience or loss to anv one. Mr. Thomas A. Partln has returned from the north where. he has been for the past ten days In the interest of his firm. . a Kaplan Bros., "The Woman's Store" announces they will have an expert corsetiete at their store nil next week for the demonstration of the Wnrner corsets. ft 6 .'.';, During the past week the dry goods and millinery stores of the city have been thronged with buyers.. With Easter only a week off and all of the millinery openings taking place this eek, it has been a busy time for this class of trade. The new building for the Oak City- Steam Laundry Is about completed. Af ter the completion of this building the office will be moved from Fayettevllle street to Its new home on W. Hargett. It will be remembered that the Boylan Pearce Co., has purchased the property on Fayettevllle street, where the laun dry and Dughl's fruit store Is now located, and will erect a handsome' building their of their own. 0 9 An experiment is being made by the city on s treet improvement. Salisbury- street, between Martin and Hargett treet, is being torn up. all the large oek will-be removed and the street laid in "Tarvira." Tarvira is a heavy tar preparation, and is known for its long serviceable wear. If the experi ment proves successful it Is the In tention of the city to improve many of the ftrects in this Jv.iy. .., Mr. D. Duncan, of the Boylan-Pcaree Co., who suffered a fracture of the ankle last week by a tall from his front porch, is rapidly improving. The friends of Mr. Duncan wish for him a speedy eeovery. The Bobbitt-Wynne Drug Co., will be open tomorrow. FIBK IX YOKOHAMA. More Than .100 Houses Hunic Property Losses $:l,000,000. Yokohama.

Durham, Marcti 19 The Birmingham papers carried Tuesday morning of this week, a long and thrilling account of the killing of Bruce Harris, formerly of this city. ' Harris, who shot and killed his wife last September while she was walking with another man at a carnival end went to Birmingham. At that time the two did not livo together. While here the two did not get along well. but railroad men generally sympathized with the husband who was a devoted fellow and always took his wife back when she appeared to have forgotten him for other men. They separated for good. After the killing his wife Harris ran exclaiming "catch him!" when he was the ciimlnal but It turned official surevlllance for him. He was not found until Monday night when a detective and two patrolmen went to his boarding house. One of them knew him, called his name and a fight fol lowed, HarriR Reeing himself done for. But for Detective Nation's shooting Harris, it is most probable that nil three would have been disarmed anil' killed. Harris was a man of uncommon strength and physique. In Birmingham he is said to have lived the most exemplary, Christian life and he wore a Baraca button, to which church organization he belonged. He was a member of the Baptist church . . r : KKKP YOCR HKAD VNCOVERED. The Constant Wearing of a Hat Prop ojjutes Dandruff Germs.
