General Hampton's place is ti

Senatoi MoI.au rin has been as
signed to the following Senate
committees: Claims, coast de

and international exposition.
It is remarkable that the testi

contradict almost the entire masi
of testimony given by the host o
witnesses that preceded him, am
that so far as we have been abl
to see, ho is entirely uncorrob

The 20 per cent, duty on cot

will benefit the few people alon
the coast of this and the (nil
States who raise sea island o
long staple cotton, but it will b
of little or no benefit to the grow
ers of upland or short stapl
cotton.
KEEP THE BONDS AT HOME.
The Lancaster A: Chester Kail
way has issued 7 per cent, bond
to the amount of 125,900, inter
est payable semi-annually. Thes
bonds can be. Kohl North withou
any JU'Ouble, but the owners am

In other words, what they them
selves do not take they will giv
their home friends the refusal c
before they sell them to peopl
away from here. With the smal
issue of $2.*),000 covering upon 2
miles of road bed and all the roll
ing stock, depots, etc., owned b
the company, there can be n
doubt about their security. I
the road was discontinued tomoi
row the iron in the track coul
be sold for enough to pay th
lace of t he bonds, to say not bin
of the depots along the line an
the shops and lot in Chester.
To pay the interest on thes
bonds requires only $1,750 pe
annum, and when it is reinem
berod that the net earnings of th
road have amounted to ove
in one single month, i
will be seen that there can b
little or no doubt about the pay
ment of the interest upon thes
bonds. The principal being uhiui
dantly secured and the paymen
of the interest being certai
makes these bonds a most desire
ble investment for people \vh
have money to invest.
It would be a pity for thes
bonds to be allowed to go iNortli
for once there, they would reniaii
there, because those people iin
few such opportunities to inves
their money when the securit,
and the interest are taken 1 nt
consideration.

CATARRH ;CURKD.
jN'o remedy is as effectual in
eradicating and curing Catarrh
as Botanic Blood Balm, (B. B. B.)
It purifies and enriches the blood,
eliminates microbes, bacteria,etc.,
and builds up the system from
the first dose. Thousands of cases
of catarrh have been cured by its
magic power. For aii blood and
skin diseases, it has no equal.
Buy the old reliable and long
tested remedy, and don't throw
your money away on sustitutes,
palmed off as "just as good." Buy
the old reliable Botanic Blood
Balm, l'rice $1.00 per large bottle.

The Southern Railway is the

choice of two routes?via Asheville,
the land of the sky, Knoxville.
and Chattanooga or via
Atlanta and Chattanooga, with !
superior through car service.
Those going by Asheville will
be carried through the famous
scenery of the French Broad
river, of which one of America's
most famous tourist writers says':
'"A journey through the valley of
the French Broad river is one
which ever remains in the memory
of him who takes it. The
distance is short, scarcely 40
miles, but there is not the shortest
portiou of it deviod of picturesque
interest. It is, in fact,
generally conceded by all extensive
travelers that it is one of the
loveliest trips in America, and
no visitor to Western North Carolina
should miss taking it. For
the entire distance the Southern
Railway hugs close to the river,
which dashes merrily over boulders,
as it cuts its ways through
the wild gorges of the mountains.
Here and there are the long
stretches of placid water, as if
the river, tired by its battling,
was resting before making
another mad rush down its tortuous
race to the sea."

Blood Poison.
Contagious B'ood Poison has been ap- ^
propriately called the curse of mankind.
It is the one disease that physicians cannot
cure; their mercurial aud potash
remedies only bottle up the poison in
the system, to surely break forth in a
more virulent form, resulting in a total
wreck of the system.
Mr. Frank II. Martin, a prominent
jeweler at 926 Pensylvania Ave., Wash?ington,D.C.,says:
I was for a long
time under treatment
of two of
the best physicians
of this city,
for a severe case
but my condition
grew worse all
the while, notwithstanding

My mouth was
filled with eating sores; my tongue was
almost eaten away, so that for three
months I was una blu^to taste any solid
food. My hair was coming out rapidly,
and I was iu a horrible fix. Iliad tried
various treatments, and was nearly discouraged,
when a friend recommended
