HOW TO DRINK LIQUOR.
If You Must Hove Whiskey lie
Sure the World Dons not Know
It About Reading Books and
The Way to Get an Education.'
LKnoxvllle, Tenn, TrtbuiM.J
Young man, my advice is: Do
not, under any circumstances,
form the habit of drinking whis
ky. Let whisky alone but if
you do driuk, drink it on the sly.
In these times a community
watches, and if a man is soon to
bravelv go in at the front door
and order his liquor and pay for
it, he is at once condemned. If
he sneaks it, 'gets it on the sly,
and keeps his breath perfumed
and swears that he is prohibition
all the time, he is all right. I
have seen many church mem
bers go from grog shop to grog
shop when visiting iu strange
states and get drunk as lords, hut
at home they bought their rot-gut
swill by the gallon and attended
church and prayed- and the?
were so good! But if a man wants
to be honest, square and above
board, he must not act honestly in
drinking liquor. He must never
go in at the front door. He must
not sneak up the alley either, but
be must sneak a note through
a hired man to a saloon keeper
and get a gallon sent home. Then
drink it quietly. Of course it
will do you no good; but if you
are bound to drink and most
young men seem bound that way
why, you will not be predicted
to graduate as an Al drunkard
with first honors. Those hypo
crites who drink on the sly have
none of my respect, understand,
yet there is somcthiu to admire ing
their cleverness In escaping the
wrath of the women who talk a-
bout the destruction of young
men. and of the parson who prays
for the life of the drunkard to be
spared until he can sober up.
Take my advice, and if you drink
whisky, arrange to fill your tank
on the sly, and you will be much
happier.
If I bad any advice to give
young people, I would tell them
to read books. I would not rec
ommend ''Squint-Eyed Bill, the
Trapper of the Plains," nor would
I suggest that "It Was All For
Love," by Bertha Clay, or any
others cribblor.be the looks. But
I would advise them to save some
money from their drinks and car

had absorbed an idea of geogra

you absorb more information than
you can imagine. These boys, or
men now, of whom I speak, are
all successful, and to talk with
them or read their writings you
would not know but what a sheep
skin or two from some great col
lege adorned their study. And
they did it all by haying books
with their "spending .money.
And this served a double purpose,
because the habit of reading grew
upon them, and instead of mid
night carousals they were at their
room reading and learning and
thus preserved their health. So I
would offer to all young boys and
girls the advice above, knowing
from observation and experience
that none better can be offered.

NOT DEAD.
Mr. Villi Burgwla Still Well at His
Home la PKtstxirg.
It is not given to many men to
read tlicir. own obituaries. This
privilege, however, has been ac
corded Mr. Hill W. Burgwin, of
Pittsburg, Pa. La4 week's Church
man, which is extensively read all
over this country, published a
very faithful picture of Mr. Burg
wyn and accompanied it by a
sketch of his long and honorable
career, telling how he was born
nt the Hermitage, near ihis city,
70 years age, and how he had
been twice married, and how he
had removed to Pittsburg, Pa.,
where he achieved a national rep
utation as a lawyer of great ability
aud had accumulated a large for
tune and how he attended nearly
every general convention of his
church. Mr. Burgwyn Is still
alive and at last accounts was well
and hearty, at his elegant home
in Pitttburg. His second wife
was a Hillsboro lady, daughter of
Mr. Henry K. Xasti, and sn-tcr to
Mr. Hal Kash and Mrs. W. L
Derowtte, of this city.
Will, Bishop and Mrs. Watsou
stoptied a day or two with Mr. and
Burcwin. in Pittsburg, while ou
on their return Iroin Minneapolis.
While there a ring came U the
telephone one day and Mr. Burg
wyn annwered it It was told
him that it was generally report!
and believed down town that he
was dead and was aked if it were
true, when Mr. Burgwyn quietly
resKondcd that it could hardly be
true, as it was the d- cased birr.-
self who was then talking through
that phone.

The first indication of a genuine
solid and substantial boom, wa)
the location of the big cotton fao
tory, on which work was begun
several months f go, near the de
pot, and for which Mr. Jas
Webb a leading spirit in all that
tends to develop and build up
Hillsboro deserves mueh credit.
Following hard upon the heels of a
cotton factory, comes the Alliance
shoe factory, which was to have
been located at Cary, but whieh
the good judgment of the com
mittee appointed to select a site,
isely suggested should be at
Hillsboro.
And the shoe factory is no long
er a iiope and a possibility, but a
reality. Messrs. W. S. Barnes, of
Raleigh, A. F. Hileman, of Con
cord, X. C. English, of Trinity,
James M. Mewbourne,of Kinston,
and T. Ivey, of Cary, spent sever
al days in Hillsboro last week
looking at different properties
suited to their purpose. The re
sult of their visit was the purchase
of the old Barracks which will
be put in repair and used tempo
rarily as a shoe factory and 130
acres adjoining, for 13,500. Of
the 130 acres in question, 40 acres
belonged to the Barracks tract
proper, 20 arres to Mr. James
Webb and 70 acres to Mr. D. C.
Parks. Mr. Webb and Mr. Parks
were especially liberal, and but
for their selling at a much lower
figure than they could get foi the
property, the deal would not have
beeu made the Alliance not be
ing willing to purchase less than
the combined tracts mentioned.
The fact that Mr. Parks was of
fered several hundred dollars more
than he got, only the day before
the sale was made, and exerted
himself particularly to induce the
Alliance and other parties inter
ested to make the trade, should
silence the croakers who claim
that projerty owners do not want
industries to locate here, and who
claim that the moneyed men are
not willing to. do their part In
this particular instance the citi
zens are under obligations to the
men who secured the factory, at a
personal sacrifice for the present
at least of valuable property.
