Kobbins o Statesville, has been appointed by the Secretary of w ar, -as member of the commission or the battlefield of Gettysburg. From the Washington new reports, Congressman Bower i still busy with the Senators trviner to eret a modification ot the internal revenue' laws. So far as we have been able to learn: Judge Whitaker was erenerallv liked here. He is very clever and sociable gen tleman personally, and seems to havea desire, to do justicje between all parties whether rich or poor, white or black:, Democrat, Republican ; Third Party or what not. There is no question about the fact that he did not please everybody, but who can ? If a case goVs agains(t an evil doer, he of ' course blames the judge. If an attor ney loses a case, it is only nai ural'that he should blame the judge, because the lawyer must preserve his repu ation a mong his people. But taking into consideration everything, the Judge and our people ge t along mighty well, and we've no objection in the world fcr him to come back and see us, and, if he so concludes, the great cosmopolitan will vouch safe a hearty .welcome, when he selects tne urusnies as lue place to build a summer resort for his family and himself . To Settle in This State. Commissioner of Agriculture John Robinson has recieved letter from Mr. H. T. Chandler, of Nebraska, who states that Ije intends to come to this State aud will probably settle i.n Wilkes county. He says tie. will also bring several families with him who will also se$tl 3. Besides raising fruits and othor agricultural products Mr. Cha 1 dler proposes to breed stock ai d will bring with him a' number of Clydesdale, Englishshire and French coach horses and ali;o improved poultry, hogs, etc. Mr. Norman Astley, of New York, writes also that he his bought a farm in Burke co. and will locate there. Both of these crAntlemen were attracted to th State through the mediu of the "North Carolina Hand Book." Twin-City Daily Senti nel. .Wilkes will welcome such men-as Mr. "Chandler. He is the kind we need ; and he will find that he has selected the right place for his business. Ai a fruit growing country, there is none better, and as for sto 3k raising, all it needs to mako a good reputation is simply a good ; opportunity. fTne farm ing methods of our people need improving as well as the breeds of stock of every kind. And such men as Mr. Chandler will recieye a hearty welcome. :The Urnbf the Brnehles Fvoposesto B&Right In It.

M Death of Mr. Chas. C. Haekett Mr. Chas C. Haekett died at the resi dence of his son, Mr. Frank D. Haekett on the north side of town, at 8:45 o'clock i last evening. He had been in a critical condition for some time and his death, which resulted from cancer, was expect ed. Mr. Haekett was a native of Wilkes county, and was born four miles below Wilkesboro, on the Yadkin river, July 23, 1828. He was educated at the acad emy at Jones ville, Yadkin - ctmnty, which was then in charge of Rev. Wm. L. Van Eaton. He afterward attended Emory and Henry College, Va., in 1848 -'49, but his health failing he was com pelled to abandon his collegiate course. He began his career as a teacher at Olin, this county, where he taught with the Rev. Baxter Clegg in the college. After Eranklin Pierce was elected President Mr. Haekett secured a clerk ship in the Navy Department at Wash ington and held it during the four years of Pierce's administration. He was married in Washington July 2, 1856, to Miss Jane Culthbert Sturgis, daughter of Associate Justice Sturgis, of the Su preme Court of Georgia. On leaTing Washington Mr.. Haekett returned to his native county and began teaching again. He continued to teach in Wilkes and at various places in the State until 1870, when failing health forced "him to .abandon regular work. Many prominent men in the State are numbered among his pupils. About 1870 Mr. Haekett suffered an accident to one of his eyes, which great ly impaired his sight, and that with the affection which caused his death las caused him much suffering. About four years ago his wife died and since then he has made his home with his son. Four sons survive him. They are : F. D. Haekett, of Statesviile; J. J.Hackeit j of Caldwell, iwho was with his father at the time of his death; Chas. Haekett, of Ashe county, and Arthur Haekett, of I van hoe, Va. Mr. Haekett joined the Methodist church early in life and was an .active, earnest Christian. Those who knew him speak of him as an exceptionally good man. He had suffered much but bore it with patient resignation:. Now he has entered into rest. The remains were taken to Ashe coun ty for burial, leaving her3 this morning oy private conveyance. Statesville Landmark. - The remains of Mr. Haekett arrived at this place last Thurs day night, remained overnight at the residence of his nephew J. G. Haekett, and continued the journey to Ashe Friday. Mr. Haekett was a brother of the late Dr. R. F. Haekett, of Wilkesb'bro. His many friends and acquaintances in this coun ty sympathize with the family in their bereavement. Cenrt Proceeding. Civil Docket. Jonathan Horton vs. L. M.

This Feb. 19th 1894. CkanorA Buxton, Atfyp- A JJacking Cough Cured by Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. Mrs. P. D. Haxx, 217 Genesee St., Lockport, N. Y., says : " Over thirty years ago, I remember hearing my father describe the wonder ful curative effects of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. During a recent attack of La Grippe, which assumed the .form of a catarrh, soreness of the longs, accom panied by an aggravating cough, I nsed various remedies and prescriptions While some of these medicines partially alleviated the coughing daring the day none of them afforded me any relief from that spasmodic action of the lungs which wonld seize me the moment I attempted! ' to lie down at night. After ten ox twelve such nights, I was ' - Nearly in Despair, and had about decided to sit up all night, in my easy chair, and procure what: sleep I could in that way. It then oc curred to' me that I had a bottle of 'Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I took a spoonful of this preparation in a little ' water, and was able to lie down without : . coughing.- ' In 'a few moments 1 fell asleep, and - awoke in the moxshig greatly refreshed and' feeling mnchr . better. ;I took a teaspoonful of the Pec . toral every night for a week,. then gmd jBally decreased the , dose, and fn two- . weeks my cough was cured."

A NEW STOCK, ELEPHANTINE IN SIZF LILLPUTI A N IN PEICE, : -. -: o . . . . r tlore Goods than has ever been shown byny House in Kortii Carolina at one time. When you see them and hear the prices you will understand, why we have bought in such quantities. The time to. buy is when everybody wants to sell. " . The bulk 9f our stock for the spring of 1894 was bought du ring the Panic, at panic-prices, and will be sold accordingly. We do not say, as many do, "that we will not be under sold," but wo say to you that while this stock lasts . WE WILL UNDERSELL THE ' BEST OF THEM. It is a most gratifying statement to make and we have asked the printer t; put it in bold type. " A bold statement too it may be seen, yet those who are familiar with the faei know that in the performance of our promises we go a stjep beyond satBer thao, fall short.. . .."t':;.':, Notwithstanding the great panic we have just passed throagh, our promise have been fulfilled and our prophecies realized. And considering all the cir , cumstances we look back to it as a year of remarkable progress, made so, in our ' judgement by the fact that our aim has been not to see how much profit u could make in a single seasbn, but how low we could sell our goods and our persistent and continuous efforts in driving down prices has brought us the in creased business we have beerr working for.' An ounce of experience is worth a pound of logic and, with the results of our past efforts before us, we see our way clear to take a decided ste; forward, anj with the opening of our new stock shall deal some sledge hammer blows in thit way of low prices that will speak louder than any any advertisements we caij make. .
