"I was sick and bed
fast for over nine
months, and the
doctor who. attended me said unless I
submitted to an operation for gravel
I would never be well. I would not
consent to that and so continued to
suffer. My back was so weak I could
not stand or walk, and it ached con

Embarrassing Reminiscences.
William H. Crane and Willis P.

first time in years. In a quiet, dlgni

they beg?n to tell things to one an

An Anti-Sea-Sick Vessel.
Lieut. Turc, of the French navy, has
after much study devised a plan for
a ship the pasengers on which will,
as he imagines, be proof against sea
sicknesses. He has caught the idea
from the motion of ? swing. As a
general rule, vessels are only set roll
ing from ten to fifteen seconds at a
time, and as his would have a regular
swing of twenty-two seconds, he cal
culates that the effect of the waves
would thus be counteracted. M. Turc's
model ship would be of about G.000
tons burden, and would sail at a
speed of nineteen knots. All the
cabins would be well out of the watef,
as they would be constructed on a
deck more than thirty feet above the
sea level.

Office Over Maj
REPORT IS WITHHELD
The Full Account of the japanese
Victory Not Given Out
RUSSIAN PUBLIC IN IGNORANCE
Official Explanation is That Unnec
essary Alarm on the Enemy's Au
thority is to be Avoided.
St. Petersburg, Dy Cable-Up to
Sunday night, the Japanese report of
the loss of three Russian ships at Port
Arthur has not been published here,
though the authorities have alloAved
to be printed a statement that the
squadron had made a sortie, and also
the news of the loss of Japanese tor
pedo boat destroyers. Some of the
papers have even commented with
satisfaction on tho prospect of a
fight in tho open sea, where the mer
its cf the two fleets would be fairly
tested.
An official explanation of the sup
pression of the Japanese report is that
the admiralty is unwilling to unnec
sarily alarm the public by the publi
cation of such statements entirely on
the authority of the enemy and in
the absence of definite advices from
the commander at Port Arthur.
The officials do not attempt to dis
guise the seriousness of and the far
reaching consequences which might
result from, the loss of three of the
Port Arthur warships,; but they pro
fess to be more inclined to believe that
Lhe vessels were lost in open fight,
rather than tho result of a torpedo
attack. Should this be the case, they
say, the Japanese could not have es
caped without material loss and thc
crippling of one or two of their bat
tleships-enough to assure the com
mand of thc sea to the Baltic squad
ron.
Th aro is much speculation as to
whether the Vladivostok squadron
might have gone out and whether it
ts on the eve of joining the Port Ar
thur licet.
It is reported that a serious land
tight has taken place near Ta-Tche
Kiao. in which the Russians were de
Coated, but' no confirmation of this re
volt is obtainable.
Details of Naval Action.
Loudon, By Cable.-The Central
i.\ews has received the following dis
patch from its Tokio correspondent
:!ated June 26, evening:
"A detailed account of the naval bat
tle at Port Arthur has been published
?tere. Tho Russian battleships Peres
riet, Poltava and Savastopol, and the
cruisers Bayan, Askold and Novik at
tempted to emerge from the harbor at
dawn on June 23, led by steamers used
.'or clearing the mines. At ll a. m., the
.battleships Czarevitch, lletvizan and
Pobieda joined the others.
"All the shins then advanced, en
deavoring to dispose of the miues laid
by the Japanese, but they were hin
dered by two Japanese torpedo boat
destroyers which had been guarding
the mouth of the harbor.
"At 3 p. m. the Japanese boats ex
changed shots with seven Russian de
stroyers which were covering the clear
ing operations. One of the Russian
cruisers was set on fire, and retired
iii side the harbor.
"During the night eight separate at
tacks were delivered, lasting until
dawn of Friday.
"In one of these assaults, the Chira
taka twice torpedoed a battleship of
lhe Peresviet type and sunk her. A
battleship of the Sevastopol type and
i cruiser of the Diana type were dis
abled and towed away.
"The Russian vessels re-entered the
harbor during Friday.
"The newspapers publish eulogistic
?rticles upon Vice Admiral Togo's
orompt action."
Suicide of Heat Sufferers.
New Haven, Special.-The exces
sive heat throughout the State Sunday
was probably responsible for two sui
cides. Mrs. Louis Barnes, of Bolton
shot herself, auer great suffering, and
earlier in the day James Wood, of
Bristol, ended his life by shooting.
Both persons had been affected before
by the heat.
Choked on Live Fish.
Roanoke, Va., Special.-A most un
usual death is reported from Appa
lachia, a mining town in Wise county,
this State. Mrs. Thomas S. Yakes
was rubbing the mouth of her little
three-year-old girl, with a live gold
Ssh in an effort to cure the child from
slobbering, having been told that such
a remedy would break her of 'the habit,
when the fiish slipped down the child's
throat, head first, choking her to
doath before the fish could be gotten
out. A physician, Dr. Holdy, was near
at the time and promptly attended the
child, but before the "fish could be re
, moved &he was dead,

CAROLINA SEASIDE RESORT.
Wrightsville Beach Unsurpassed For
Health and Pleasure.
Of all the avenues open to the weary
and the overworked to seek a few days
or weeks of perfect quiet and undis
turbed repose during the heated sum
mer period, none are quite so inviting
as a stay at the seashore, where the
never-ending splash of the waves of old
ocean lull one. ali unconsciously, t'
perfect repose and 14? ?>?< .ots:einiines>
Mauy seaside resorts are open, eaci
one with its advertised attractions bu
no other appeals so strongly to those
desiring an ideal spot in which a long
or short vacation can be most satisfac
torily spent, as the' Seashore Hotel,
Wrightsvile Beach, N. C.
Nothing here is wanting that could
add to the comfort or pleasure of the
mo3t fastidious guest, whether that
guest be the monied prince or the or
dinary citizen seeking a holiday, so
long as a capacity for real enjoyment
is left. All alike will find a welcome at
this magnificent resort, and each will
be fanned impartially by the invigorat
ing breezes that are the gratuitous gift
from the bounteous Atlantic.
The Seashore Hotel has been en
larged to three times its former ca
pacity, and no resort on the Atlantic
coast affords such charms to the health
or pleasure seeker. The management
delights to give its guests the most per
fect service and the greatest paine are
exerted to make each feel ct home and
at ease.
This popular resort is reached by way
of the Seaboard Air Line Railway, by
means of a splendid schedule of pas
senger trains, a new one being contem
plated that will leave Charlotte and
up-country points in the late afternoon
and arrive in Wilmington in the even
ing, carrying special parlor cars and
first-class coach accommodations. The
Seaboard system has become a well
known factor in developing the resorts
of the South, and its schedules are ar
ranged with a view to accommodate
its ever-increasing patronage in every
possible way.
No higher pleasure awaits the one in
need of a vacation than a stay at the
Sea Shore Hotel and a dip in the surf
that rolls so near its spacious piazzas,
ind no need to seek further North-or
South, for an ideal place to spend one's
leisure than at this popular resort.
UTILIZING THE SUN'S RAYS.
Cheap Fuel Used by Residents of
Southern California.
The residents of Southern Califor
nia have gene into partnership with
the sun. There the sun is more plen
tiful than coal, and so they put the
former to work, utilizing the heat
rays for many purposes, one of which
is known as the "solar water heater."
By the plan they have adopted they
make the sun heat the water in the
kitchens and bathrooms in the houses
and for other domestic purposes. In
California and other states where the
sun may be depended on the item of
fuel is entirely eliminated, and how
ever cheap fuel may be, no fuel is
cheaper than the sun.
The domestic arrangement for keep
ing water hot at all hours of the day
or night is effected by inserting in the
roof a solar heater, consisting of a
number of mirrors reflecting the sun's
rays, so that the heat is concentrated
upon the water in metallic troughs,
which absorb the heat rays and soon
bring the water to a nearly boiling
temperature.

PALMETTO CHOP CONDITIONS
Good Rains and Warmer Weather Pre
vailed.
The week ending 8 a. m., June 20,
had a mean temperature of 74 degrees
which is nearly five below normal,
.due to very low temperatures during
the first four days and rising temper
ature to nearly normal warmth during
the last three. The extremes were
a minimum at Florence, Greenville
ind Spartanburg on the 14th and 15th,
ind a maximum of 95 at Blackville on
he 18th. The relative humidity was
.bnormally low until the 19th, and
he winds were frosh (o brisk easterly
intil the last two days when they
hifted to southerly. The sunshine
?xceeded the normal, but with general
y cloudy weather on the 18th and
19 th.
The week was without rain, or with
mly very light, scattered showers,
mtil tho 18th, when showers set in
.ver the extreme west, and contin
ted during the 19th, but confined to
,he western and - southwestern coun
ties, with a maximum tall of 2.44 inch
's at Spartanburg. The other wes
ern counties had from one-half to
ne inch. In other parts of the State
.he soil has again become very dry,
:nd in places the drought is very se
ere, especially in portions cf York
.ounty. In most of the central couti
ies wells are failing and all but the
argest streams are dry, so that water
or domestic use and for cattle is
?carce.
The absonce of rain, and the brighr
-.unshine and drying winds were fa
vorable for ridding the fields of grass
.nd weeds, and most fields are clean
ind well cultivated. These conditions
.rere also favorable for finishing
wheat and oe ts harvest, and for be
ginning thrashing, but thc cool night
and dry weather checked the growth
of all crops, partier la ri y cotton, pas
tures and gardens.
The condition of corn continue?
promising, but it needs rain in most
sections, as carly corn is in the tas
seling stage;. Much of it has been
laid by. Worms in the tops are dam
aging the crop in one county. Roast
ing ears are available in the southern
most portions.
Cool nights materially checked the
growth of cotton early in the week,
but higher temperatures at its close
wera more favorable. Lice . infest
fields over practically ihe entire
State. As a rule the plants are small
but thrifty, and fields are clean and
well cultivated. Cotton is fruiting
well on sandy lands,. and occasional
blooms are reported from the south
ern counties. Sea Island coton is do
ing well.
. Tobacco continues promising but
needs rain. Rice planting is finished;
early rice has received its harvest
Hooding. Melon vines are vigorous
but Ta: :.. It-has been too dry to con
tinue to plant sweet potato slips, and
stands of these set out previously are '
generally poor. The commercial
peach crop is good, but in many lo
calities peaches and apples are drop
ping excessively. Pastures and gar
dener aro parched, and in need of rain.
Sowing peas on stubble lands pro
gressed slowly as the soil has been
too dry.
Serious Railroad Collision.
Vincennes, Ind., Special.-Baltimore
& Ohio passenger train No. 1, west
bound, ran into an open switch, col
liding with a freight train of 30 cars,
resulting in the injury of 16 persons, 3
of whom may die. The seriously in
jured are: John Eisenhart, 9 years
old; J. L. Witner, of Cincinnati, and
Edward Mason, of Covington, Ky.
Prof. Bain After Boll Weevil.
Knoxville, Tenn., Special ? M.
Bain, professor of botany at the Uni
versity of Tennessee, has been appoint
ed a special agent by the United States
government against the boll weevil.
Prof. Bain is directed to breed cotton j
with a view to producing an early va- \
riety which will mature before the boll
weevil arrives. Second, he is to produce
a variety of cotton with seed high in
oil contents. This work will be done
in special reference to west Tennessee
and Arkansas. Prof. Bain will be ab
sent from the University from the mid
dle of August to the first of December,
spending his time in Texas and other
sections infested with the boll weevil, i
Movements of Japanese Forces.
St. Petersburg, by Cable-The Em
peror has received the following frorr
Gen. Kuropatkin: "The enemy in the
direction of Saimatsza and Feng Wang
Cheng have not only stopped but have
made a retrograde movement. They
have evacuated several points toward
the north of Feng Weng Cheng, which
until recently, they occupied. The
movement of Japanese troops toward
the Dallmc defile has been stopped,
but a rather important movement of
Japanese forces has been discovered
lu the direction cf Siu Yen and Nai
Cheng, or Siu Yen and Tasichiao."
Cadet Suvivors Receive Crosses.
Richmond, Va., special-One of the
interesting features of the finals of
the Virginia Military Institute, at Lex
ington, took place when all of the suvi
vors of the famous Newmarket charge
by the cadets of the institute were
presented with crosses of honor for
their heroism at the battle. Of the
293 cadets who took part in the bat
tle of Newmarket, which was fought
May 15, 1864, 178 are known to be
living.
Liner Australia on Rocks.
Melbourne, By Cable.-The Peninsula
and Oriental liner Australia, inward
bound, struck on the rocks at Point
Nepean (at the eastern entrance to
Port Philip bay, Victoria), at 2 o'clock
Sunday morning. The bottom of the
vessel was stove in, and it is feared
that she will be a total loss. The pas
sengers and crew were safely landed.

Columbus, Ga., Special-Pure spring
water was given away free to the peo
ple of this city Sunday, the city haul
ing it from Wynton in sprinkling

GLENN THE LEADER
North Carolina Democrats Agree OR
a Ticket
WON WITH A SMALL MAJORITY
Carr, Craig, Woodward and Hale, ihe
"Big Four" to St. Louis-State Offi
cers are Renominated.
Greeesboro, N. C., Special.-At 5:4??
o'clock Friday morning,, just before ad
journment of the prolonged night ses
sion, Robert B. Glenn, of Winston
Salcm, was nominated by the State
Democratic Convention for Governor of
North Carolina. He was chosen ?n the
fifth ballot. Amid cheering, waving of
hats, coats and banners the nomina
tion was made unanimous.
On the re-assembling of the conven
tion at 10:15 o'clock, the delegates
nominated the other State officers, as
follows:
Lieutenant-Governor-Hon. Francis
D. Winston, of Bertie.
Associate Justices of the Supreme
Court-W. A. Hoke, of Lincoln, and
George H. Brown, Jr., of Beaufort. 1
State Auditor-B. F. Dixon, of Clove
land.
Treasurer-B. R. Lacy, of Wake.
Secretary of State-J, Bryan Grimes,
of Pitt.
Superintendent of Education-J. Y.
Joyner, of Guilford.
Commissioner of Labor and Printing
-H. B. Varner, of Davidson.
Corporation Commissioner-S. L.
Rogers, of Haywood.
Commissioner cf Agriculture-S. L.
Patterson, of Caldwell.
Messrs. Dixon, Lacy, Grimes, Joyner,
Varner, Rogers and Patterson were all
re-nominated.
The delegates-at-large to St. Louis
elected are: Gen. Julian S. Carr, Dur
ham; Locke Craig. Asheville; John E.
Woodward, Wilson; Major E. J. Hale,
Fayetteville.
One of the anomalies of the situation
ls that of the 24 delegates the State has
to St. Louis going under the majority
unit rule, 18 were formerly identified
with what is known as the Cleveland
element and several are known to be
for his nomination now, but all are for
Parker except one, who is said to be
for Hearst. Senators Simmons and
Overman and Governor Aycock re
fused to allow their names to be con
sidered as delegates.
The Presidential electors are: F. S.
Spruill, of Franklin, and W. A. Self,
of Catawba.
A resolution was passed by the con
vention instructing the delegates to the
national convention to vote as a unit
on all matters coming before them, but
otherwise the members will go unin
structed.
A resolution demanding a division of
the school fund between the races on
the basis of taxation was killed by an
overwhelming vote, the Democracy of
North Carolina thus pla-lng itself on
record as offering the negro equal fa
cilities with the Caucasian.
The platform adopted, after brief
reference to the settling of the race
problem by th<" passage of the consti
tutional amenament, has this to say
of the South Dakota bond suit:
"The Democratic party of 1904 ap
proves the settlement made in 1879 and
will oppose any and all attempts from
any quarter to set aside the settle
ment then made. It will abide the
mandates of the courts, but it will not
consent to reopen the settlement that
was alike creditable to the State and
fair to the holders of its securities."
It then condemns the President "for
his surrender to trust influences and
for his failure to enforce the law
against monopolies and monopolists.
Congress appropriated $500,000 to em

Well Worth Seeing.
One of the most interesting exhibits
among thc manv of all kinds at the Louis
iana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis is
that of the Winchester Repeating Arms
Company, of New Haven, Conn., manu
facturers of repeating rifles and shotguns
and all kinds of ammunition. The exhibit
was in readiness and was opened on the
first, day of thc fair, a fact that clearly
illustrates the enterprise and up-to-date
methods of the company behind it. It is
the aim of thc * Winchester Repeating
Arny? Company to show at their exhibit
the high development which they have,
reached in the making of guns and ammu
nition, and one needs only to see the ex
hibit to realize how near to perfection
that development has come. There can
be seen the new automatic repeating rifle,
all kinds of shotguns, the modern smoke
less powder shotgun shells and rifle car-'
tridges; in faci everything that can interest
the devotees of hunting and trap and lat*
get shooting. Don't fail to see the exhibit
at Hie Mamu'tcturers and Fish and Game
Buildings, lt's well worth your while.

O surely, surely life ls fair.
And surely, surely hearts are true;
Ec witness, balm o.f April air.
And boundless depth of midnight blue.
The trouble of an hour ago,
That seemed to gather round our way,
Is vanished as the last-year snow
That hld the hills of Fesole.
And softly still thc moonlight falls,
O love, and makes for thee and me
An Eden 'mid the bay-leal' walls,
Thc fragrant bowers of Boboli.
How gently o'er our spirits move
The golden hours we feared would die]
The very flame that threatened Love,
Has lent us light to see him by.

Suggestions bv Dr, Hartman-How
to Combat the Nervous Depression
Incident to Warm Weather.
WAK
Nervousness Is very common among
women. This condition is due to anaemic
nerve centers. The nerve centers are
the reservoir for nerve vitality. These
centers become bloodies.: for the wa?t oi
proper nutrition.
This condition is especially noticeable
during the warm season. Every sum
mer an army of invalids are produced as
a direct*result of weak nervous systems.
This could easily be overcome by the
use of Peruna. Peruna strikes at the
root of the trouble by corroding :he
digestion. - Perfect digestion furnishes in
creased nutrition for the nerve centres.
Perfectly digested food gives these reser
voirs of life a vitality which creates strong,
steady nerves, and in this manner fortiiies
and nourishes life.
Miss Blanche Grey, a prominent young
society woman of Memphis, Tenn., in a
recent letter from 174 Alabama street,
writes: "To a society woman whose ner
vou6 force is often taxed to the utmost
from lack ot rest and irregular meal*,
I know of nothing which ta of BO much
benerit aa Paruna. I took it a few
months ago when I felt my strength giv
ing way, and tl soon made ilsaf ma t
ifest in giving me new strength'and.

Pe-ru-na Contains No Narcotics.
One reason why Peruna has found per
manent use in so many homes is tba: it
contains no narcotic of any kind. Peruna
is perfectly harmless. Jt can be used any
length of time without acquiring a drug
habit. Peruna does not produce temporary
results. It is permanent in its effect.
It has no bad effect upon the system,
and gradually eliminates catarrh by re
moving the cause of catarrh. There, are a
multitude of homes' where Peruna has been
used of and on for twenty years. Such a
thing could not be possible if Peruna con?
tained any drugs of a narcotic nature.
At this season of the year we are pe
culiarly liable to inflammation? of the
stomach and bowels, lt is the part of wis
dom to learn how to treat them short and
in the easiest and quickest mauncr. Pe
runa does this by its peculiar power over
all forms of catarrhai troubles.
