; Case of Poisoning
Hood's Sarsaparilla Drives the Poi
son from the System, Quiets
the Nerves, Relieves Dyspepsia
and Catarrh.
" While in the army I was poisoned in
wardly with poison oak, and I did not get
well for 15 years. My blood became so
affected that I was taken with a hacking
cough, and I was thought to be going
into consumption. I took many different
medicines without avail, and finally re
solved to try Hood's Sarsaparilla. When
I had finished taking the first bottle the
pimples began to disappear from my
body, and after I had taken three bottles
I was well. I have also suffered with ca
tarrh in the head and have been taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla for this trouble, and
it neips me. in laet 1 take it lor all ail
ments ana Deueve it has no equal as a
blood purifier. It quiets the nerves and
gives refreshing sleep. It has relieved
me of dyspepsia and built me up." J. I.

ABOUT RELIGIOUS MATTERS
IN PHILIPPINES.
The Kuropean Committee Insists
Upon Kxpulslon of the Friars.
Do Not Believe Stars and
Stripes Will Protect Them.
London, Aug. 27. The Philippine
Islands committee in Europe has ad
dressed a letter to President McKinley
regarding an appeal made to him by
Roman Catholic ecclesiastics in
America to protect the religious or
ders in the Islands. The expulsion
of the Friars, the committeejjontends,
is a necessary antecedant to moral
sanitation. The letter names particu
larly the Archbishop of Manila, also
uisnops JNeuva Ssegovia and Neuva
Sagasta, "whose acts are heartily
against both natives and iesuit and
other respected religious institutions
ana are condemned by everyone.
ine committee urges McKinley to
aid the Philippinos to suppress the
immorality of the diabolical institu
tions supported by these monks', the
letter concluding as follows: Your
name can never be associated
with that of these friars. The sense of
right of the noble nation at whose
head you are placed will never permit
the ever victorious and humanitarian
stars and stripes to protect them."

Love Melons Better Thau Pie.
A query oame from one of the clerks
in District Attorney Uolton's office to
day regarding those wa 4 rmelons
which a farmer waj to send around
upon the suggestion of an insurgeut.
The clerk stated that they loved water
melons around there much better than

make an iusurgent believe this.
The Boys Don't Want to Go,
A letter from one of the Riflemen,

the men having another chance to vol

want to go will be sent back home.

ANOTHER FALSEHOOD.
P. W. CriitchUeld Replies to the Re
publican's "Kx-Demorrat."
Some one writing in the Union Re
publican of this week over the name
of "ex-Democrat' makes many malic
iously false statements. Prominent
among his wild remarks we find the
following: "Paul, lie of the noble
strain, direct from Abraham Lincoln,
an "old liner" from "far b.-ick,"
far back that no man ever knew he
was a Republican until he was c m
date for Treasurer a few
back."
The man who gave exoressio.. to ii.
above lie was either a renegade Dem
ocrat, toreigner, or failed to ie..d the
public prints of the past twenty yen s
Onthe2ti.h day of May, l.vtl, the
Union Republican itself "says: "Paul
W. Crutehfield has le.
mail agent on the Salem Branch Kail
roaa, in the place of Mr. J. p. v,.st
resigned. No belter appointment
could have been made. Mr. Crutcli-
tieiu is a true and tried Kepublicau.
and a most efficient man."
Seventeen years and three months
have elapsed since the date this item
was written by the Republican, and
yet this same Paul came from farther
back than that date, and he has other
proofs equally as strong of his eai Iv
and continued allegiance to the 1U--publican
party, and that is more than
many of the present office-holding crew
can say, and we would suggest that if
the Republican desires to retain its
subscribers it would do well to see
that its corps of ex-Democrats stick a
little closer by the truth.
P. W. Ckutchfiki.d.
I. S. I had leen taking and paying
for the Republican for nearly twenty
years, and only ceased to take the paper
because ex-Democrats, foreigners and
imported bosses were allowed to dic
tate its management and policy.

POLITICS IN WATKRMKLONS.
A Cunversatton Hctween a Farmer
and au Insurgent.
Last week a farmer hailed Mr.
Blank (who is one of the insur
gents' chiefs) on the street, and here
is what passed between them;
Farmer I have in a load of tine
melons, Mr, Hlank; I want to sell you
U. fine one; they are of the new kind.
Mr. Hlank What do you mean by
the new kind?
Farmer I mean that they are prin
cipally old-time Republican Insurgent
melnus, from principle only, and if a
man who is half-breed, turncoat or a
new convert will eat some of these
melons he will feel like a true Repub
lican from principle a little while
anyway,
Mr. Hlank Well, Mr. Farmer. If
you can pick me out one dozen that
will not endorse new eon verts, turn
coats and foreigners. I will treat the
Courthouse ring, and if you have a
hue one that will lie still when you
hold a piece of pie to its nose you can
take that one with the balance of your
ioaa to tne u. s. llistrlet Attorney's
ollice. Melons of that kind are hadlv
needed there.

A ntiuiiier of the Captain's friends
called at his liuuie to shake hands
with Kim and hear from the Forsv ill

When asked if the First regiment
would go to Cuba, Capt. Ilessent re
plied that "we volunteered last April
to go wherever the Covernment decid
ed to send us. If an order is made
we will have to go."
The genial Captain has gained sev

He has not leeti sick a day since he
arrived in Jacksonville. The number
of soldiers ill in his regiment will
not average more than live to the com
pany. The Forsyth boys are getting
along nicely. He has "l)7 men in his
company, besides two in the band.
TDK OLD FOLKS OPPOSKD.
Another Roanoke Couple Come
Winston and ict Married.
Another Roanoke couple came
to
to
Winston last week to get married
and they were successful. Mr. .las.
T. Kingery and Miss Mollie .1. Lucas
are the names of the contracting par
ties. The ceremony was jicr formed in
the parlor at the Rierson House, on
Liberty street, by Rev. Dr. Creasy, in
the presenile of a few friends, about
midnight.
It was the old, old story the pa
rents of the young lady, for some
reason, objected to the match, hence
the runaway.
The couple arrived here on the N.
& W. train at 9:40. There was some
delay in getting the license.
The bride, who gave her age at 21
years, is very good looking. The
groom, we are informed, is about
and formerly worked in a mill at
Roanoke, but is now engaged iu farm
ing. Policeman TIanner escorted tin?
couple from the depot and assisted
the groom-elect in finding Mr. A. T.
Llanes, who issued the license.
Mr. and Mrs. Kingery returned to
Roanoke to receive the forgiveness of
the old folks.
Stole Screw Plate and Dies.
Last night a negro stole a screw
plate and dios, worth nine dollars,
from the blacksmith shop of J. A.
White & Son. This morning he tried
to sell it to F. C. Meinung. lie finally
disposed of it to the proprietor of a
shop a mile west of Winston for $2.50.
Mr. J. A. White went out and got the
stolen property. He arrived there
about fifteen minutes after the negro
left. The man who made the purchase
will have to lose the $2.50, if the negro
is not found.
New Tax-Collector.
Mr. J. J. Norman will be Winston's
next tax-collector. The Democratic
Aldermen met in caucus at 2 o'clock
this afternoon and decided the matter.
Mr. Norman secured the plum on
the sixth ballot. He will enter upon
the duties of his ollice on September

The train left the N. & W. depot
at : i (1.1 minutes behind schedule
time) with no less than 600 people
men, women and "tots" of various
sizes, lhe run to Walnut Cove was
made in good time, but there was a
delay there of half an hour or more In
changing engines, etc. A slow engine!
pulled the. train to the picnic grounds.)
It was 11 o'clock when the JJattlei
(round was reached.
Upon arriving there, preparations
Tor dinner were begun at once. Judge,
Sehcuck, President of the Uattle
(round Co., was there and had every
thing in order. Mr. and Mrs. .1.
Mci ritt and other Greensboro Method
ists were also present to assist In
making the picnic as happy and suc
cessful as possible.
The dinner was spread on long
tables, which were already up. A
Greensboro man remarked in the
evening that he would like to have a
picture of the crowd and the line din
ner served.
1 n the afU rnoon the picnickers visit-
eu tne several handsome monuments 1
on the grounds, the museum and
springs. Judge Schenck opened the
door of the museum building and in-I
vitcd the excursionists to go in with
out charge. The hundreds of ancient
relics were viewed with intense in
terest. At 3:.'10 the train left the grounds for '
Greensboro, reaching there about!
.'1:4.1. A stop was made near the!
Greensboro Female College and about!
half of the crowd got olf and went

Many also visited the hausome ne-'

Others walked around the city. I
Promptly at o'clock the traiV
pulled out for Winston. A number ot,
stops were made between Greensboro
and Walnut Cove. It was 7:50 when'
the latter place was reached. A dela 4
here of 4-1 minutes was very tiresome!
and provoked many unfavorable com-
menis against the railroad people. !
The train was shifted around fori
sometime. At 8:50 the excursionists!
arrived at the N. & W. depot. WhileJ
everybody was fatigued and many;
children were asleep, they were all
glad they went and no blame was at
tached to Manager R. B. Crawford or
his assistants for the three hours iv
