8 1 FOR THE HOME I The Ladies Are Invited to ment of the Paper. EDITED BY MISS K. D. For Worn-Out Brussels Carpet. "Where the cheaper grades of Brussels carpet are used, the nap -wears away, leaving the carpet smooth and colorless. To make good use of this, try painting it. Have the carpet thoroughly cleaned, all rips sewed up and damaged places mend ed, then track smoothly on the kitchen, or other floor where it is to Ee. Have soaked overnight on pound f glue to one gallon of water, and In the morning put the glue paid into another pail containing boiling water, as Is done with a double boiler, and set over the heat, stirring frequently until the glue is thoroughly dissolved. Let this cool, then with a brush a paint brush is best, give the carpet a coating with. Long-Stemmed Violets. There is a general complaint that early violets are too short-stemmed, and here is a remedy, which should be cut out and pasted in the scrap book, where it can be got at when wanted: Pick all the early appearing buds for at least a week after they begin to come; do not let any bloom. Then do not pick any more of the buds, but sprinkle the beds once a week with a solution of nitrate of soda, one ounce of the soda to one gallon of water, dissolving thoroughly. This will cause the plants to bloom abundantly, with long stems to the flowers. Waterproofing For Boots. Mix twenty parts of boiled linseed. oil," four ounces of powdered resin and four ounces of sliced or shaved beeswax and put in an earthen jar or tin can. Set this in a vessel of boiling water on the stove, but the water must not boil up into the can; let heat gently until all the ingre dients are melted and thoroughly blended by stirring. The resuT will resemble cart grease, . and must be rubbed into the shoes or boots when wet, and the more rubbing the better. Stains of Fabrics. This is said, to remove stains from silk without injuring the color: Five parts of soft water and six parts of powdered alum. Boil a" short time, alter which pour into a vessel to cool. Previous to using, the mixture must be warmed, then the stained places washed and left to dry. Hon. Cam. Morrison Interviewed. Hon. Cameron Morrison, of Char lotte, N. C, former State Senator and one of the leading lawyers of North Carolina, on being asked' regarding the political outlook in the Old North State, said: "We are enjoying -the same settled and tranquil conditions that have prevailed for the past ten years, or ever since Senator F. M. Simmons became the dominant figure in the politics of the commonwealth. But for the masterly work accom plished by this man and his genius for statecraft, our destiny might have been very different from the excel lent dispensation we now enjoy. "In 1894 and 1898 . a combination ef Republicans and Populists attain ed" power in North . Carolina, and in "96 carried the State by 40,000 ma jority, electing all the Congressmen save one and getting a four-fifths ma jority of the Legislature. Two years later Mr. Simmons was "made chair man of the State Democratic Cam paign Committee and he turned the tables on the Fuslonists, beating them by 20,000 and giving back the Legis teture into the hands of his party by a preponderance of three to one, be sides winning most of the Congres sional districts. The Legislature sub mitted to the voters a disfranchising amendment which was carried In 1900 By .55.000. The same year Mr. Sim mons was chosen to the United States Senate as the successor of Marion Butler. In 1907 lie was chosen for a second term, and two years hence lis people will, in. my opinion, show iat their appreciation and gratitude , ; - Contribute to This Depart- is as strong as ever by giving him am third, election. "But it is not only their recollection of his loyalty and activity in a stormy period that impels North Caro lina Democrats to keep Mr. Simmons j at Washington. He is deserving that honor for what he has actUally ac j complished at the national capital in the decade of his service. Largely because of his zeal and activity, our State has received as much financial aid from the government for the bet- terment of our rivers and. harbors in the past 10 years, as it had obtained in the entire history of the nation up to the beginning of his Senatorial career. A member of two of the most important Senate committees, Finance and Commerce, Mr. Simmons has made a deep study of the great ques tions which affect the welfare of the whole - people, and his opinion and counsel. are sought and valued by his Senatorial associates, as is shown by his membership on the minority steer ing committee. In retaining him in the Senate, the people of North Caro linaare doing themselves the great est service." Baltimore American. -THE HONDURAN SITUATION. It Is Said That Bonilla Will in All Probability Agree to Armistice. Washington, D. C, Feb. 6. General Manuel Bonilla, the leader of the re volution in Honduras, in all probabili ty will agree to an armistice within a few lays and accept the mediation of the United States to bring to an j end the conflict. This information was conveyed to the State Depart ment in a wireless telegram from Commander Davis, of the American gunboat Tacoma. He reported he had interviewed the revolutionary leader at Ceiba, tendered the good offices of the United States and proposed an armistice. In reply, Commander Davis said, he had received the un derstanding that General Bonilla would agree to an armistice in a few J days. ' Upon formal acceptance of the in tervention of the United States, it is understood that the American Gov ernment will offer the United States gunboat, Tacoma as a neutral meeting place for the representatives of Presi dent Davilla and General Bonilla to discuss terms of peace. Pooled Tobacco. Madison, Ky., Feb. 8. Mr. Frank M. Lee this morning attached twenty four hogsheads of pooled tobacco which had been loaded on the steam er Loucinda by order of the com pany he represents for shipment to Louisville. Fifty hogsheads had pre viously been shipped, and today's shipment would have been thirty-six hogsheads but Mr. Lee attached twenty-four hogsheads to make good the amount of the company's indebted ness to him. Mr. Lee only wants his own and doesn't propose to be fooled by anybody. Mr.. Lee's complaint is against the Burley Tobacco Society, a corpora tion organized under the general laws of Kentucky, for the purpose of contracting for and handling tobacco in Madison and at other places. The suit is to recover $825 due to Mr. Lee. SNAKE INSIDE KILLS HORSE. Gueer Assortment of Reptiles Found In Dead Equine. Wilmington, Delaware, Feb. 7. A horse owned by John Haley, of near Alt.

TELEPHONE MESSAGE SAYS THAT NEGRO ANSWERING HIS DES CRIPTION IS ARRESTED FEW DETAILS WERE GIVEN This afternoon at three o'clock a telephone message was received here from policeman Wynne, who is in Green county with the Wil son posse, stating that a negro j believed to be Lewis West was I rUn down about two miles from Hookerton at two-thirty this af ternoon. A telephone message from Hooker ton says "The negro was running and was hemmed in. He at first gave his name as Alex. Williams , and af terwards Abel Williams.. He is of' a bright yejlow dolor, five feet, eight inches high but has no sores or wen on his neck. His description is too short and stumpy and weight too heavy to correspond with published description of West, but it is believ ed that if the man is not West he is a member of his gang. Negro says he is from Salisbury but investiga tion shows that he does not know any one there. He safd h never worked at Kenly, but worked at Kinston, said he was put off East Carolina Railroad train. Deputy Sheriff Williams, of Greene County, said he talked with negro woman who said two others in a gang, one with a wen. Deputy Sheriff Williams is confident negro arrested is one of the gang wanted here. Prisoner admits knowing Will and Dave Young. Prisoner did not have arms when captured and was not wounded. His clothing was torn in pieces. He had a pocketful of raw potatoes. Arrangements are now being made to 'have a special locomotive bring prisoner to Farmville so he can be brought to Wilson tonight. An officer from Fayetteville is in the city who knows West and his - gang and the prisoner can be easily identified if one of the men wanted. Our Hookerton correspondent 'phoned that there is a house located near where prisoner was arrested that the posse wanted to search. That even its cat holse and other entrances were barricaded and a number of cross ties piled up beside the road, ar- 1 ranged as if to afford hiding place. Another posse with hounds have abandoned chase and gone to Farm ville. As stated in Yesterday's Times, in response to a telephone message from Sheriff Albritton, of Greene county, in the afternoon, sating that Louis West, murderer of Deputy Sheriff Mumford, was seen and wounded near there, a special consisting of engine and two box cars, carrying a ' tGe transportation of posses, posse of about sixty men, left for the Prisoners Taken To Raleigh, scene.

However, the Wil son officials are following up every clue and five hundred men would have gone on the Greene county search yesterday instead of sixty, had Sheriff Sharpe desired it. - The negro was first seen by Air. John Hatten, rural letter carrier, who was driving along the road near Red Springs, about six miles from Hook erton," in Greene county. He saw a mulatto negro walking along the road who answered the description of Louis West. The negro had his coat pulled up around hf3 neck as if to conceal a wen or something. The negro en tered the first negro house. Hatten drove up to the house of Mr. John Keechem and those two with one other man went to the house where the negro entered. Ketchem stood at the front door unarmed. Hatten entered by the rear door and caught the negro in the act of shaving. Hat ten had single barrelled shot gun. When Hatten opened the rear door the negro jumped at him with the razor. Hatten drew back and covered him with his gun, but didn't shoot? fearing he would kill a colored wo man standing just back of the negro. The negro ran out of the front door with a razor by Air. Ketchem and escaped. Air. Hatten fired at him and the negro fell, but immediately got up and soon disappeared, limping in the woods. Air. Htten could not agai.'i fire as the shell could not be extri cated from the gun. Mr. Hatten then went to Ormonds ville and gave telephone notice of the negro's whereabouts. This was about 12:30. Sheriff Albritton, of Greene, arrived flhmit two hours later. . Posses soon arrived from Snow Hill, Kinston a surrounding country and started or the negro's tracks. They soon traced him to the home of Aloses Joyner, colored, where he finished shaving and ate dinner, and was afterwards seen by negroes going in the direction of Adams' Bridge, and several miles from where Air. Hatten shot him. When the Wilson posse, who went on a box car special via Farmville to Hookerton, and from there to Or mond's store on wagons, buggies and on foot (a four-mile tramp). They were informed there that the negro had gone in the direction of Adams' Bridge, where the Wilson posse and others went and got on the trail. .Blood hounds, were then telephoned for from Tarboro and a special train from that town on the East Carolina Railroad brought dogs and a posse to Alurray, the nearest station tc where the dogs were wanted.
