Sought at or.e time by the Federal authorities under a $10,000 reward for Ma capture, flead or alive, for alleged consul- in tlio murder cf a president of the united Slates, and now appointed as a member r thn wiuiH.. kj.. country, is the strand BZ , Ccl tamea Gordon, of Okiahcma, who oral Confedera.to leaders Busrpected of uwiiK m conspiracy with J. Wilkes Booth to kill President Abraham Lln eclu. He escaped aiTest and probable death only throuih the intervention, it Is stated, of a "Yankee" colonel with whom he had crossed swwdg in a light in Virginia. . JDurlnff the earlier years of the war Colonel Gordon had foraed an. inti mate friendsJhip whii Booth and after the assassination of President Llnerln the Teward of $10,000 was nihmi fnr his capture. Colonel Gordon went to Canada and it was several months after the close of hostilities before he rouna it sate to return home. During one of the campaigns In Virginia Cornel Gordon had crossed sworde with the colonel of a New York cavalry regiment. Both were wounded in the conflict, but they af terward be:ame fast frknds. Colonel Gordon wrote a letter to Whin New Yorker, denying that he had any part in the Lincoln conspiracy, and stating that he desired to return home. The former foe took the matter up with Central Dlcke, then in command of the army forces,, In N"3W York, and the latter sent him a passport and invitation to come to New York and surrender, which he did. He afterwards satisfied General Dicks that he knew nothing of the Lincoln conspiracy. He took the oath of aleglance and returned to his home in Ohoctoaeaw county where he has since resided. THE COMMON COLD. Time for Medical Science to Abate "Scourge of North." 1 Philadelphia Press. It has probably occured to Innum erable sufferers from what ls'gener ally known as the "common cold" that It is about time for medical science, which has coped successfully with mucn more serious problems in dis ease, to bate a distressing malady Which has been aptly designated "the scourge of the North." In eveiry -house. hold there is a favorite remedy, but, as matter of fact, no effectual cure is known. In a recent issue of the British Med ical Journal it is pointed out that the disease Is not one, but many, its symp toms being due to various germs ,-The widespread .belief In cold baths and the process called "ihardentng" 1b rejected. Even the hope held out sbme time ago by Dr. Benham, in his report to the British Medical Associa tion, that a vaccine may cut short an attack cr make it tolerable, is not re ceived with favor, because the miBrobe of the common cold is not always the same: hence it would be necessary first to discover the identity of the par ticular bug cr use a mixed vaccine. The writer in the Journal quotes Dr. Kuhn, a German authority on the pre vention of colds, who believes that they are not usually contracted from other persons, but that a thill affords to microbes already in the nose, throat or mouth, conditions favorable to tlieir activity by altering the cutaneous cir culation. This Is all very well, but It leaves us exactly where we were with a cold in our heads and nothing to fall back upon but quinine, hot lemonade, nasal sprays or the grandmother remedies of smelling salts and blackberry tea.

Tor some time oast It has been evident to the Craddock-Terry Com pany ana tneir employees that the high-water mark sales of three mil lion dollars for this year would be gained and passed before the end of the month. 'Monday it was known to an mat the breaking of the record was near at hand, and the office em ployes were prepared for the an nouncement which was made shortly after 10 o'clock, that ''the flag had ooen nailed to the North Pole," or. In more reliable language, that the firm had then passed the $3,000,000 mark Of all the horn-blowinar and , bell- ringing, arid cheering ever heard on lower Ninth' street the celebration which followed for a few minutes was the liveliest. Every one in the office wore a smile that wouldn't come off and felt personally that it was some thing of which to he Justly proud, an achievement which no Southern job ber or manufacturer of , shoes : has ever attained, and for ; which.': each from the president to the olflce tot- bad been striving, j ' Mr. Charles G. Craddock, the sales manager of the concern, in comment ing on the event, said that of the goods sold 'which helped to make np this sum, 1,296,000- uaira of, shoes had been made In the compan'y fac tories , here, which ha4. run on full time during the whole year. Over $2,- 000 had hee-n. paid to their employee every day In the year, or over 1250 ror every worKing nour. one nundrea and fifty thousand dollars In salaries was .paid to traveling men and repre sentatives during the year. The ac tual, amount paid out In Lynchburg was .$651,000, a sum greater than the total revenue of the city government, Which is estimated to be $516,390 for 1909..'. v. ' .) i- . ' ,. li lt -was stated that for three years the company had been aiming t the three million dollar mark in sales.. It could have been reached in 1907 had not the panto of that year and the In dustrial xdevpresslon of the following year Interfered. ! Mr. Craddock stated that now that this mark was passed, the future Increases of the company would be stated in millions, not thou sands of dollars.- ; -v The significance of this event Is such that it marks an era in Southern shoe manufacturing and distribution. To day no shoe concern In Philadelphia, for example, one ot the oldest shoe markets in the country,; sells more than a half of the amount sold by one company alone In Lynchburg,although Philadelphia shoe , distributing : and manufacturing firms had been estab lished before the founders ot Lynch burg shoe concerns were horn. This one Lynchburg firm, the Craddock Terry Company, moreover, has reach ed a -point where it alone manufactur ed more shoes than were manufactur ed In the sixteen largest cities of the South combined, as follows: Rich mond, Petersburg, Roanoke, Norfolk Knoxvllle, Chattanooga, Nashville. At lanta, Augusta, Savannah, Charleston, Birmingham, ,: Montgomery, Mobile, Jacksonville and New Orleans. ' The company has been pursuing a large publicity policy during the past year in an advertising campaign in over one hundred Southern -papers by which it is estimated that the eyes of the consuming public will be reached during the coming year something like 40,000,000 times.
