Chicago, July 19. The Amer ican Railway union order, warning all railroad men at the stock yards to desist from work, seemed to have little effect on to men to whom it was addressed this morning. Railroad em ployes returned to their work as usual; switching was con tinued, and the packers seemed inclined to treat the matter as a joke The stock yards company will endeavor to" solve the problem of securing protection for its men outride of working hours by lodging and boarding them in its buildings. Cots were placed in some of the houses this morning. Sacramento, Cal., July 19. Early this morning over 400 men reported for work in the l&hopa and many of the old employes were given vueir tor mer positions. Every depart ment, save the rolling mills foundry, is in operation, with a suiiicient force to handle all business for the present. No work is to be done in tne roll ing mills and foundry, and for this reason they remain inoper ative. The men filed into the yards. protected by a strong military escort. There were committees from the strikers' ranks hang ing upon the outskirts of the sentry lines and endeavoring to persuade tne workman irom returning to work, but their pleas were in vain. It is eener ally conceded thai the strike so far as it obtains here, is over and that the railroad company nas won. Superintendent Small, of the motive power and machinery department, says he has appli cations for reinstatement from hundreds of men and that by to morrow he will have 600 men at work. Three switchmen crews went to work this morning and trains are made up without difficulty. Chicago. July 19. The Full- man shops at Pullman. Ills., will probably reopen next week. Vice President Wickes stated this morning that he had re ceived 325 applications from workmen desiring to return to work and that he anticipated no trouble securing a suffi cient number of operatives to work all the departments. Three hundred men are engaged in oiling the machinery, cleaning tne snops and doing other preliminary work. While 100 or. these men, who are Hollanders, living at Roseland, were on their way to .f unman this morning, they were stopped . 1 A. A A snort distance west oi nuiman by strikers of their sympath izers and an all round fight ensued, which terminated in the new men agreeing to go home. After nearly reaching Kose- and. however, the Hollanders separated into groups of two or three and different routes re turned to Pullman and went to work. Most of the Hollanders are iron founders, but all were pressed into the service of clean ing up. Jones County Convention.

This statement seen s to lx pretty gene rally known but to have very tew lieliever-. We heard one man say he wouldn't be lieve it if he saw it. Capt. D. S. Lancaster, of the steamer Carolina, had heard the statement and knowing of a dog that had in the past about five years, as near as could be de termined lieen bitten by a snake and hail never seemed right since that time, though perfectly healthy before, he got ' permission from the owner, a colored ! man named Henry F-d wards, to kill the I dog and test the matter.

George Mills, who on circumstantial evidence stands accused of the recent atrocious murder of his niece, Miss Iana Wimberly, near Apex, Wake county, has for several weeks been in jail at Goldsboro for safe keeping. He was taken up to Raleigh on Wednesday the 19th inst., for preliminary examination. It was held the next day. There were some sensational and revolting develop ments. The girl, 17 years of age was en ciente and since these facts were devel oped it is generally believed that while Mills killed the girl it was planned and caused by members of her own family, ft is tcougnt Dy some ot trie neignbors that one ot her nearest relatives is tne father of tbe child. It is understood that at the final trial, September 24th, much evi dence of a very stnsntional character will be broogbt onu Mills, the murderer, has an idiotic face and seems entirely un moved. k State Occasion at Morehead. The echoes come up from Morehead that tbe banquet night before last in com pliment to the officers of the Colfax was one of the most elegant and successful occasions ever numbered in the history of tbe far famed Atlantic Hotel. Some verv felicitous spe-.-ches wort made, and among others we hive heard tho response of Cl. J. S. Carr to the toast, "The State Guard." spoken of as one of the happiest of the evening.

He further said that the law would lie as rigorously enforced as before the decision which closed them. "NAME UNKNOWN Another woman's life is ended; Nothing more.

Seven t -five masked men overpowered the guards and burned the Itock Island bridge at Waukomis, south Enid, July 18th, and the soldiers were fired on at Round Pond. The situation is growing worse and more troops are ordered out. Hot words in the South Carolina Tillman-Butler campaign came near resulting in a riot Thursday. Friends of each got excited and pistols were drawn but fortun ately passed off quietly. Raleigh correspondent Messenger: Your correspondent is informed that a conference was held this week at Golds boro bv Messrs. Marion Butler, W H Kitchin", D L Russell, J C L Harris, and W T Fairclotli. It is said they wish V F Stroud, Populist, of Chatham county, to retire ns a congressional aspirant :-o J C L Harris could run. It is said that Stroud declined to '"step down." Such is the report which comes here. A j Silver creek, X. Y, woman who started out to earn f 1 for church purposes contracted to shave her husband ten times for the money. In relating her ex perience she said lie was quite successful in her undertaking, cutting only a few gashes in his face, which she "puttied up without much difficulty." It looks as if Capt. W. II. Ivitchin were living up to his declaration that he has abated nothing of his Democratic pnnei pies. The reports from his campaign are that he is making Democratic speeches, except as to his treatment of Cleveland; and these reports are borne oui by the face that laudation of him is conspicu ously lacking in the Populist papers.

'The liver liad leen partly eaten up by the thing. Taking hold of its body with a snlit stick it was pulled away, and after its hold was brokeu it lived abuiit two hours. It did not crawl around like a snake but wriggled about somewhat on the style of un eel. It liad an obtuse. Hat bead and a mouth made, not for biting, but for sucking. In color it is a kind of dingy white. Capt. Lancaster put tho parasite in alcohol aed brought the bottle containing it to the city; it is now at Dr. Street's ollice and anyone who chooses may see it. Mr. J . S. Basnight proprietor of tlic New Berne Lumber mill, upon viewing it stated that an occurrence similar to this came under his observation when a boy. Tnat a bull dog owned by his people would kill any snake he saw and had been bitten more than once and when he sickened and died, to test the cor rectness of this same story the dog was cut into, aud two of the snakes (t) were found attached to his liver, similar to this one, only smaller probably a little over a foot. It was such a remarkable thing that it vividly impressed itself upon iir. Basnight's memory. Presiding Elder F. D. Swindell tells us that a brother of his had a dog which was bitten by a snake and having heard the statement spoken of examination was made with the same result, one of the reptiles b.-ing found similarly existing. Dr. Frank Duffy was sought to give an explanation and viewing the specimen he accepted all the facts attending its finding but did not believe that the bite of the snake had anything to do with its de velopment. He identified it a specimen of tluc Eustrongylus gigas or strongylus gigas as it seems to be more frequently written. It is a parasite to which dogs are subject, and is of the speqies of nema tode worms. It is introduced into the dog's system in some way, when in a larval state and then develops and becomes the parasite. It has a common name, the large kidney worm. Medical works allude to it and speak of its size as vary ing from one or two inches up to about three feet. This specimen seems to be an exceptionally large one. It seems that any dog and some other animals are liable to be infested by it, and the finding of it in snake bitten dogs is merely a co-incidence. We quote the following from a medical work : "This worm, recorded in the catalogue of human parasites is doubtful as such. Pertaining to the same familv a Anchy lostomum, as its coimiiMii name indici.es its usual habitation is the kidney. It i I the largest of the nematodes, and is a long cylindrical red worm, slightly taper ing and blunt at the ends. The mouth is enclosed by six rounded labial papillae The feraa'e commonly ranges from one to three feet in length and from a fourth to nearly half an iuch in thick-, ness. The male ranges from six inches to a foot in length and from one to three lines (a lino is the twelfth of an inch in thickness. "Tbe mature parasite is common in many fish eating mammals, from which it is interred that fishes arc the intermediate host for the juvenile condition of tbe worm It is Irequcnt in th'' wolf, dog, mink, weasel, raccoon, otter and seal. It also occurs in the hog and is reported to have occurred in the horse, ox and man Usually it is solitary aud occupies one of thej kidneys coileJ upon itself. The worm is occasiona'ly found in other positions, as the alxlominal cav ity, the intestine, liver and lungs, but per haps in most of these cases has been de rived from its usual hal itation. ''The cases on record of the occurrence of this formidable parasite in man are of yerv early date and are mostly doubtful as to the authentic nature of the worm, and are all unsatisfactory as t the atten dent phenomena.'' t:on held at Dunn yesterday.

Our talented young ladv artist, Miss Annie Berry, who has been presiding over the Art Department of Due West Female college, Due West. S. C, received quite a complimentary notice in the Char leston News and Courier, based upon the art exhibit of the school at the commence ment. Appreciative mention was made of the good work of the pupils, the pro gress made, and the methods used. It was stated that ' There has never been more independent and original work done in the art department th'in during the last year." This is a good deal to say as to results. Of Miss Berry herself the fol lowing mention is made: The art display of the Female College is always one ot the most attractive lea turcs of the closing week of our schools, Every year hundreds ot visitors examine the display and criticise or admire to their hearts' content Miss Annie A. Berry, of New Berne. N. O, has taught the class this year. She is a born artist, and has had the very highest advantages and training, having studied in a South ern college and then spent several years under a private teacher and in the Art league of New York. She is not only a gifted artist, but is a most enthusiastic and inspiring teacher. Miss Berry, we are pleased to see, while at home for the vacation, has determined to iiive home art students the benefit of her knowledge. She is now getting up the class. It might well to recall in this con nection that when Miss Berry was a pupil at the New York Art League one of her pictures was selected by the committee for exhibition at the World's Fair. This, of itself indicates the high measure of her talent. How is This ,' We observe in The Journal the Washington Gazette states "Teach had a presentiment of boding danger and as the night waned he paced the quarter deck, longing to sec the light of rosy fingered morn appear in the eastern horizon. As he walked the deck of his vessel, anchor ed not far from land, a scowl was on his brow, ever and anon, he was heard even to the Island, to cry out O Crow Cock and this is given as the oriiu ottheuame. The natives to this day c.i 1 the place O-Cro-Cock." A clever story tiiis. and akin to the "Old Roan Horse'' but John Lawson, the first Surveyor General of N. O, spoils it. On his map. "the Western Ocean," 1709, the name will be found writtea Ocacock. It was in 1713, tliat Teath or Blackbeard was capture and slain by Maynard. And also there it is on this map Ronoak for the name of the Island and Neus for our river, aid the point of land on vi hich -Newbern is located Chattoka, as we all know though there are different ways of spelling it. However these matters ill do good as they lead children to search ing tho history ol the State. Half century or more ago it was a com mon occurrence to dig for Tench's hidden tnasury on the Neuse shore just above the town. Perhaps some of the holes made by the nocturnal money diggers might bi! designate ! at tin's day. U. C. City Tax Levy. The Board of city council met in spec ial session and made tbe tax levy for the year 1894, the same us last year 60 cents on $1.00 valuation, and $1.80 on the poll. For railroad purposes there vas levied a :j)Oc.ii.l tax of 20 cents in tho $100 val uation and 60 cents on the poll. This waa in aocoidance with an order recently passed by the Board of county commis sioners which is as follows: North Carolina ) Craven County, Ordered that there be levied on the real and personal property subject to tax ation by the City of Xew Berne a tax ol 20 cents on the $100 valuation; and 60 cents on the poll, for the purpose of pay ing the interest on the bonds issued by the city of New Berne in payments for its Left Pennsylvania for New Betne, On the east bound train this morning, that left Durham at 6 o'clock there was aboard a citizeu of Pennsylvania who was leaving that State times were getting too hard for him and he was going to locate in New Berne. He seemed to be an in lelligent looking farmer. The traiu moved off bciore we could get his name, but he liad on the freight train with him all of his personal proper ty two horses, several cows, a lot of pigs and some dogs, besides his bedclothes and othei effects. He wanted to try his luck on North Carolina soil and by work ing as hard here as he did in Pennsyl vania he believed a brighter future was bef re dim. We are always glad to wel come intelligent, honest and industrious citizens from other States. They will ilo well in old North Carolina. Durham Sun. To Reach The People. Printers" Ink, a journal devoted to the science of advertising, in au article on what papers to use to reach the people of North Carolina, by Mr. J. W. Bailey, of Raleigh, says: "In the east the Norfolk (Va i Virginian-Carolinian, the Wilmington Weekly Messenger, the Kinston Free Press and the New Berne Journal (Daily and ever liehl li the wishes ol the Stale troops prevail. Camp Vance will be made the permanent encampment grounds. Tl e train which bore the troops home ward was co iiposed ol eighteen cars. It left the encampment grounds at ten min utes to six, and upon reaching New Bern another engine w is called into rvice and the train moved from here in two sections. In the train were baggage cais taking along tbe equipments of each company. The things used at the encampment be longing to the State are still there. Adj utant General Cam rn. Quarter-master Eugene Ilarrell and C.,1. Smith, remained over to look afler them. The soldiers as a rule like it splendid. at Camp Vance, some say they would like it still better if trains ran with great er frequency every half hour seems the general desire with the men, but ihe fre quency of the trains and the time of rim ing rests with the officers. The railroad officials accede to their wishes lully in this matter, and the matter can be regulated as those in authority desire. Tne visitors at Morehead and the citizens express pleasure at having liad the Western N. C, soldier boys there. Both at the camp grounds and nt the hotels, they have deported themselves orderly aud gentlemanly, and added to the seasons pleasures, the general wish in that thoy coald have stayed longer. Cicero Dawson Drowned. Mr. Cicero O. Dawson, son of Mr. A. B. Dawson, of Jasper, was drowned yes terday in Bachelor creek near the Neuse road bridge, where lie was engaged floating logs. The accident occurred while the others at work there had stopped for dinner. The young man was heard by a colored man to cry out but was not reached in time to be saved. It is said he hud been troubled somewhat with dizzy spells and he may have been attacked by one. A wound about his head was probably re ceived by striking against a log a he fell. Mr. Dawson had but recently returned from Trinity school, Chocowinity. He was 17 years of age, was the oldest sju of his father and a young man ol promise. The faueral of Mr. Cicero Dawson of Jasper, was largely attended. A number of the New Berne people went out to it. It appears that the cause of Mr. Dawson's drowning was an attack of cramp while he was overboard attending to the float ing logs. The rigidity of his limbs when the body was recovered points to this conclusion. Prof. Mendenhall Accepts. Prof. E. P. Mendenhall, recently elect ed Principal of the New Berne High School iuforms Mr. Watson, Sect'y and Treas , of the Board of Trustees, of his ac ceptance of the place and that he will be here in a few days. We learn his purpose is to open a boarding house, under the supervision of his wife, for the accomodation of pupils who do not reside in the city and Mr. Watson is making inquiry for a suitable house and location. Prof. Mendenhall, will make an effort to consolidate the several private schools of the city with the High school, by o' fering sucli inducements to the teachers of these schools as will tend to the accom plishment of that purpose.

Further searching resulted in the dis covery ot the end ol his fishing rod pro jecting upward out in the stream The rod was pulled up and with it came the body of Mr. Rumple, his hands tightly clasped around it. As he was a strong man and an expert iwimmer, it wasjudged that he was struck by lightning aud by the stroke rendered at least powerless to make any effort for his preservation. The physicans who examined the body say the indications are that the stroke of lightning was the cause of death, that he was dead when he fell in the water. All the indications point this way. Ease, of Obtaining a University Eduea tlou. The University of North Carolina of fers exceptional advantages in acquiring an education to those whose means are limited. It otters free tuition to bone fide school teachers, to the sons of ministers depend ent upon the ministry, and to candidates for the ministry. It gives time t stUd- ents when necessary and lends money to the needy. President Winston is now seeking to make these offers generally known and it also seeking to obtain lis's of names of young men who might be induced to at tend the L'niversity. He hold that a diploma from our University will secure for any one a position that will enable him in one or two years to pay oft' the en tire expense of his education. IIu says that expenses including tujVwn need not exceed $300, per year and $260 in cludhig, it and as a financial investment he considers a '-University education the safest, the most profitable, and the quick est to yield returns that any young man can uake. The last session of the University was its 99th and was the most prosperous one since the war interrupted its work. The faculty consists of 18 full profes sors and ten assistants all of whom are skilled specialists in their departments. "Pi Uil-l'p" by The Journal Which is Always In "The Swim."

Another successful German was held at the Atlantic Hotel Morehead Tuesday night In front of the Hotel at the same time the Baptist church had a festival. Tbe crowd in attendance was immense. A sham battle was one of the features at the encampment Tuesday afternoon. It was about an hour in duration, and very interesting. The rain which we had in New Berne that afternoon did not legin there until the battle os over. B. G. Green, a negro man from Cliarles ton, is in tbe city soliciting work. He has both legs cat off at the knees, but he manages to get around and does consid erable work. He re-bottoms chairs, does upholstering, and general repairing of furniture. In this serious disability, he continues to do all the work he can with out appealing to charity, a woiti y lesson. One of the most successful and observ ant business men of North Carolina, who has been at Morehead City a week or two expresses the opinion that Morehead is destined eirly to be one ot the prominent towns of the State, and one of the leading summer resorts of the South. We be lieve he is right. The members of the Slate Medical Board which has been holding an ad journed mieting at Morehead City to re ceive and act upon applications, passed through Friday morning returning to their homes. Mr. J. L. Hahn who returned from Morehead yesterday reports that the big crowd there are having great enjoyment.

Rhodes President of the Littleton Female college will give all information wanted. Tne season at Morehead continues to be a good one. The Atlantic Hotel has gone beyond 800 guests nearly double the number attained to last year. The New Berne House and all the boarding houses also are well patronized. And the best of it is nearly all who go are staying. This of itself proves the enjoy - ableness of the season, There is very seldom a time when the cooling breeze cannot be had aud the surf bathing is de lightful and is participated in by large crowds. Ihe citizen of whom we made mention in yesterday's Jqctrsal, of moving from Pennsylvania brought with him six horses instead of two as we mentioned. He has no another car load of effects on the way. All good citizens are welcome to our State, and the resources in this Bection for future development untold are therefore making a most desirable field for prospectors and all industrious class es. State Superintendent of Public In struction John C. Scarboro, states that un cJbhiiren out of every ten never at tend any private school but are depen dent upon the public schools for their education. This shows the need of mak ing the schools as good and as plentiful as possible and of extending the time of tbe school term to ae long a period as can be done. Till!
