Judge Clark, who is an active candidate, received only 717 votes, while Judge Justice, who is not a candidate, received 542. This shows what the folks think of Judge Justice.

All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. l ne Kianeys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out ihe waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or cut of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches and rheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases I I 1 J t riio hv all druppists in fifty- cent and one-dollar siz- es.

The rcssit of the New Hanover primaries were received here with great surprise by the Clark ele mont nnd with equal satisfaction with th anti contingent One of the latter sneakincr of it said it was the first expression from tbefl untrammelled masses, and the vote for Judge Justicn for Chief Justice, being so nearly equal to that ot Judge Clark, and that in an extreme eastern county con vinced him that in the center and west, if the people had a chance Justice would sweep the State like a cyclone. Anyhow the candidacy of this incorruptible and able old Roman of the piedmont, promises to make the fight for Chief Justice less one sided that it had seemed a week ago. The Justice boom seems to have made an impression here. What does he do tor a livi ig?" "Well, he fishes, now. He is getting so old aud feeble that he can't do anything else. When he was young and strong he worked on a freight boat on the river, but his health failed about ten years ago and we haye had a mighty hard time since then. I have ac tually saed the time that we did not haye enough to eat. He is a proud man and will not beg. He fishes while I tries to make a little money sewing and washing, but he won't let m9 work much.' "Have you any children?" INo, sir, mister, uod never gave us any, and I expect it is best. Ihey would have had a hard time, we are so poor. Me and him are all that there is. He is the only person that I have in the world. He is good to me. He does his boat." "Do you own a home?"' "No, sir: we have nothin' but a little bit of furniture. We live in a rented house and the man who owns it could put ub out to-aay but ha is a Christian man and wouldn't do it. We havn't paid no rent in six yesrs. We juar can t: that's ths only reason. But it won't be long now, for my old man is getting weak. He can't live much longer, and I hope we 11 go together.

The friends we had in our It Was the Jury, Chicago Times Herald. Mr. Mo 'jweeny believed in win ning bis case, and speke to the jury with that tingle end in On jDne accasion he was engaged as counsel for the defence in a Cal norma murder trial. Toe case looked hopeless. Not a link was missing m the chain of evidence which the prosecution had welded. To the surprise of everybody, Mr. MoSweeny submitted no evidence, for the defence. Believing that the case was woo, the state s attorney made only a few peifunotory re marks in conclusion, and theu the great Ohio leader faced the jury to make the concluding argument. He began in a quif, friendly, conversational tons, such aB one might use in discussing the weath er. No reference was made to the murder, even indirectly, but the boyhood of the prisoner was quiet ly and rapidly sketched with a master hand his school days, his embarkation in business, his loye j affairs, his courtship and mar riage, his struggles to earn a little j home fo his wife and his loved ones. The jurors were deeply interest ed, and followed the narrative in tently, Mr. McS weeny stepped closer. In a manner which seemed j almost confidantial he drew a. vivid picture of a pretty country cottage I QDDT 1VT sO A 1VT Ts O f T 1 7T 1 if T?

Within he showed a faith ful and loving wife preparing sup per the table partially set, the tea-kettle steaming and singing on the stove. On the dooryard gate three ruddy-faced youngsters were swinging and looking up the road to see who Bhould be first to catch a glimpse of "papa" coming home to supper. Suddenly the speaker stopped. Drawing himself up to his full height, he exclaimed, in a tone which startled the whole court room, "Gentlemen, you must send him home to them!" The effect was electrical. A roar of applause followed, aud 'one old uror, brushing away a tear, blurt ed out. "We'll do it sir. we'll doi it!" Mr. McSweeny instantly stopped and sat down. The jury brought in a verdict of acquittal without leaving their seats. Foremost among those who pressed forward to congratulate the eloquent Ohioan was the pris oner himself, who, with tears streaming down his cheeks, wrung his counsel's bands and thanked him again and again. But between the bob 3 he maLaged to say: ' No other man in the world could have done that ! Why sir, I have no wife nor children : I never was even married you know.' Senator Money's Story, GOODS.

He often says that he hopes he will die some night after fishing all day. If he does I want to gj too." "Do you ever go to church, you and your husband?' "Mister, we haven't been in goin' on ten vears. We have not had any fit clothes. The churches look too fine inside for my old rags; but we read the Bible every Sunday, We can't read much now our eyes are so bad, but we get comfort out of the good Book.

Here is an anecdote that we were about to put among our fourth page jokes, but on second thought the point made by the old preach er seems to contain a great deal more wisdom than humor, for wnich reason we print the item here and commend it to the con sideration of our readers : The Rev. Peter Cartwngbt. the famous pioneer Methodist circuit nder. while travelling to an ap pointment one day. saw two yoang men of his acquaintance sitting idly on the bank of a small stream, fishing. It was a fine spring day, and the s-ent of freshly plowed fields was in the air "Boys," he said. "I am sorry to see you broaking the fourth com mandment." "Why, Uncle Peter," they said, with a laugh at his expense, "this isn't Sunday." "I know it," he retorted, "but you are breaking the fourth com mandment. You forget ,that one part of it says, 'Six days shalt thou labor.' " Do you ever see a person in ab ject poverty or distress of affliction and consider how many there are in the same condition? Half the human race, one almoBt believes, are dying for help. This poor old woman is not the only one. And did you ever think of Christians, including yourself, going complao ently on? And in that moment did you think of Jesus how He gladly sent word to John that the afflicted were helped and the poor had the good news? New Drug Firm.

At one time the conversation turn ed i pon Senator Depew's receipt attack in the Senate upon the con stitutional amendments of the Southern States. Senator Money, speaking for his own State, had r plied to Depew. showing up thn numerous inaccuracies in the speeoh, and after he had finished, Senator Hoar came ovtr to him and said: "Mr. Moe-nie "He al ways calls me 'Moe-nie,' said the speaker a friend of mine came back from your State rcntly and told me that on a certain election day an old colored gentleman ap plied for registration in order to cast his ballot that dsy." Here Senator Money paused to remark parenthetically that they didn't hav3 any registration on the day of the election down in his State. But Mr. Hoar went on to say: "This old colored gentleman was asked if he could read and explain the constitution of the State, and replied with an air of not being exactly certain of his ground: "Boss, I reckon I kin.' 'Well, then,' was the reply, 'what is a writ of certiorari." The old col ored gentleman scratched his head and answered : 'I'm not exactly certain 'bout dat, boss, but I think it's something to keep a nigger from votin'.' And on the strength of this answer," coucluded Senator Hoar, this colored citizen was al lowed to cast his ballot,'' Mr. Cicero Williams, of Dover, owns a hen that lays from ten to eleven eggs every week.
