They are telling one on Dr. Wiley of the Agricultural Department. The doctor 1b recognized as about the most learned in the world on foods. What is good and what is bad to eat has been the study of the doctor’s life and for years he haB been mak ing practical experiments, for the government in order that all of the people of the United States might know what to eat to gain red blood and muscle. On summer diet Dr. Wiley has been Insistent and he has been issu ing a bill of fare and regimen guar anteed to make the individual im mune from heat and hot weather dis orders. Here was one formula: "Eat one fourth less In summer than in win ter. Banish all alcoholic beverages. Eat largely of cooked fruits and veg etables. Drink nothing below 60 degrees in temperature and drink sparingly. Be careful to seek the society of cheerful friends. Practice moderation in open air exercise. Don’t fret. Don’t worry.” One of the most veracious men in Washington discovered Dr. Wiley a ione at dinner in an eating house fa mous for its specialties, and this is what he had for dinner: '-OtT-wo large imperial crabs. One large steak and trimmings. A spe cial salad. Some mugs of musty ale.” In one of his recent bulletins Dr. Wiley observed: “Thousands of peo ple are made sick in summer because they do not give thought to what they eat.” LEWIS WITHDRAWS. Judge Wm. H. Lewis, Candidate for Representative, Withdraws From . .the Race. To the Editor of The Gazette. , After careful consideration, I have decided to withdraw from the race for the nomination as Representative from Gaston to the next Legislature. I take this course on my own motion, and without solicitation from any source whatever, after securing the consent of those of my friends at whose suggestion my announcement was made. In fact, I have no par ticular ambition to represent the county at tills time, and conditions are such that, in my opinion, it be hooves the Democrats of the county to select candidates for the next Leg islature, who will be acceptable to all factions and sections and repre sent the will of the majority of the people. This in the interest of har mony. Very truly, WM. H. LEWIS. FOR STATE SENATOR. • I. hereby announce myself a can didate for State Senator from Gas ten county, subject to the action of the Democratic primaries and coun ty convention. ROBERT L. ABERNETHY. Mount Holly, N. C. HYDROPHOBIA. \ Announcement by the State Board <5| Healtli of Provisions for Prevents ive Treatment of This Dread Dirt ease. The General Assembly, at Its last regular session, enacted the follow ing: , An Act Authorizing the State Board1 of Health to Provide for the Pre ventive Treatment of Hydropho bia. SECTION 1. That the State Board of Health is hereby authorized and empowered to provide for and have conducted under its direction the pre ventive treatment of hydrophobia or rabies, .whenever in its Judgment cir cumstances, financial and other, will justify it. To meet the expenses of this treatment the said board is here by given authority to supplement the revenue derived from fees for the treatment by such sums from the treasury of the State Laboratory of Hygiene as may be necessary: Pro vided, that the usefulness and effi ciency of the said laboratory is not thereby impaired. SEC. 2. That the benefits of said treatment shall be given free of charge to all residents of the State who shall present to the Secretary of the State Board of Health, or its representative having in charge the management of this special work, an affidavit of Inability to pay, duly sworn to and subscribed before a jus tice of the peace, or, if the case be a minor, such an affidavit by the par ent or guardian. To meet as far as may be the expenses of this special work, the said Board of Health Is hereby authorized and directed to de mand from those able to do so the payment in advance of a reasonable fee, not to exceed in any case the us ual charge made by the reputable Pasteur institutes of this country. The Board of Health, at its recent annual meeting, decided that circum stances would now justify the treat ment. The following extract from the cir cular of information issued by the Laboratory of Hygiene gives the nec essary details: , RABIES_In no other disease is an early diagnosis of more vital im portance. Fortunately, a diagnosis can in most cases be made from a mi croscopic examination of the brain of the rabid animal. The suspected an imal, or its head and neck, should be sent at the earliest possible moment to the laboratory for examination. The head should be packed in ice to prevent putrefaction, and should be sent by express, prepaid. A careful -account of the animal, with a full history of cauBe of suspicion, should be sent in every case. The treatment will require the presence of the patient in Raleigh for about three weekB, but residence in a hospital iB not necessary. The cost of the entire treatment will be $50, or will be furnished free to per sons unable to pay, upon submission of “an affidavit of inability to pay, duly sworn to and subscribed before a justice of the peace, or, if the case be a minor, such an affidavit by the parent or guardian.” "Attention is called to the fact that the law requires the fee to be paid In advance. It should be said also that, if after trial it should be found nec essary for the support of this special work, the fee will be increased. This work will be in charge of Dr. C. A. Shore, Director State Laboratory of Hygiene, and all communications on the subject should be addressed to him, at Raleigh. RICHARD H. LEWIS. Secretary N C. Board of Health.

Mr. Taft has promised, it is understood, to speak in Greensboro at some date la ter in the campaign. FAST TRAIN WRECKED. Southern's No. :I8, New York and N e w Orleans Limited, Partly Leaves Ralls Ten Miles Soatli of Gastonia—Five Postal Clerks In rioreti-—No Cause for Wreck Y'et Assigned. » What came near being a horrible" catastrophe occurred Sunday night about 8:20 o’clock, when train No. 38 i n the Southern Railway, known as the New York and New Orleans Limited, a solid Pullman train, was partly derailed between Bessemer City and Kings Mountain, at a point about ten miles south-east of Gas tonia The train is due to pass Gastonia about 8:35 without stopping and was right on time when it passed Kings Mountain. Suddenly the tender and the first mail car left the track and were hurled down an embankment about 25 feet high. The postal clerks were busy in this car, and it is a marvel that they escaped with their IiveB. Five clerks suffered bruises and injurfbs, the extent of which can not of course be deter mined. They were E. W. Hort, Thomas McRae, C. L. Dean, E. H. Dawson, all of Atlanta, and D. P. White, of Gainesville, Ga. The In jured men were given prompt at tention by surgeons sent to the scene from Charlotte on a special train, and it is not thought that the injur ies of any will prove fatal. Besides the car which rolled down the embankment, the dining car left the rails and was thrown across the track, but was not overturned, and only one person on this car was in jured, and then only slightly. Be yond the severe shaking up which resulted from the sudden stopping of the PullmaiT cars which made uu the train, no passengers suffered any injury. The engine stayed on the rails and the engineer and fireman suffered no injury. About 150 feet of track was torn up, which required several hours of work on the part of the wrecking crews to clear the main line. One crew was sent from Greenville, S. C„ arriving about 1:30 Monday morning, and another from Spencer, which arrived about 2 o' clock. On account of the wreck trains No. 35, westbound, and No. 40 east bound, were sent around by Colum bia and Rock Hill. The track was cleared In time for No. 4 4 to pass about 10 o’clock Monday morning, only five hours late. CAN’T BE SEPARATED. Some Gastonia People Have Learned How to Get Kid of Both. Backache and kidney ache are twin brothers. You can’t separate them. And you cqn't get rid of the back ache until you cure the kidney ache. If the kidneys are well and strong, the rest of the syBtem Is pretty sure to be in vigorous health. Doan’s Kidney Pills make strong, healthy kidneys. W. H. ' Rinehart, 93 Loray Mill House, Gastonia, N. C., says: "I have no hesitancy in giving my name as an endorser of Doan’s Kidney Pills as I think them to be the best Kidney remedy on .the market to-day. For years I was a victim of Kidney trouble and the misery I endured from pains in my back would be al most Impossible to describe. I tried many remedies and treatments but none of them gave me any perman ent benefit. Doan's Kidney Pills, I procured at the Williams Drug Co. acted differently than any remedy I had previously tried, strengthening my kidneys at once and causing the backache to disappear. I am still using them and feel confident that they will soon entirely eradicate kid ney disease from my system." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milbum Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. Kemember the name—Doan's*— and take no other. J. Louis Williamson, a prominent young farmer of York county, S. C., was shot and mortally wounded last Friday night by J. Henry Garrison at the latters home,;at Gray Court, .ten miles west of Laurens. William son was calling on Garrison's daugh ter and the father took exception to his conduct. Williamson died with in three hours as a result of his wounds. Four negroes were lynched last Friday night at Russellville, Ky., be ing taken from the jail and hanged to a tree in the edge of town by a mob of fifty men who did their work so quietly that the citizens of the town were not aroused. The ne groes were members of a lodge which had passed resolutions approving the recent brutal murder of a white man by his negro tenant. The mur derer is in jail' in Louisville, Ky., for safe-keeping. John Finney, a negro sentenced to death at Rocky Mount, Va., last Fri day for criminal assault, will be the first criminal to be electrocuted in Virginia under the new law. LAW MUST BE ENFORCED. Superintendent Davis, of the State Anti-Saloon League, Warns Friends of Prohibition. To the Friends of Prohibition: WILSON, N. C., Aug. 1.— The forces of righteousness have prevail ed against the advocates of the sa loon; and hereafter our fair State is to be free from the legal sale of li quor. This, however, dees not mean complete victory. Only a portion of the liquor forces wi'l qnietly and freely submit to the law; others must be made to. On the part of some there ^ill be a leady disposition to manufacture, sell and buy liquor In' spite of the Prohibition Law. There ore it is incumbent upon us to see to ti e enforcement of the law we have championed. Duty demands that all good citizens defend the law, and oppose law breakers. It Is bet ter to protect the law than- the law less. It is wiser to shield the people from criminals than to shield the “blind tigers" from law. Let us, therefore, use our evidence and in fluence to convict any person who dis obeys the Prohibition Law of our State. Then the liquor traffic will stop. I desire further to put you on your guard with reference to representa tives in our next General Assembly. I am sure that the advocates of li cense will leave no stone unturned to carry their points and nominate men who favor license to represent your county. Already they are lay ing plans to this end. Be wise and cautious; and see that only temper ance men who favor _ no-license are nominated and elected. Find the man who will properly fill the posi tion and press him into the race. Onyl thus can we get the best possi ble men. By this measure we often get excellent men who would not otherwise become candidates. This is an ALL-IMPOKTANT matter. See that your county does the safe and sane thing. If the friends of prohibition fall to use their privileges and sit idly by, while the advocates of license work for, and nominate through, the pri maries and county conventions, men of their choice, we can blame only ourselves when we meet reverses in the Legislature. Work while It is day. It will be too late after the primaries are over; and this matter is entirely too important to be over looked. We must give it thought and attention. Some men must be come candidates for representatives to the legislature in behalf of civic righteousness, even though It may mean personal and financial sacri fice. Help me to preach this doc trine. i Yonrs for service, R. L. DAVIS, Supt. James Gibson, aged 21 years, was drowned while In bathing near his home at Pacolet, S, C., Saturday af ternoon. He was seized with cramps and sank before assistance could ar rive. ' . Four Pardoned.
