01 YEAR
IN PRISON
Abraui Hite, who was arrested one;
week ago charged with the larceny cf ;
a lot ot brass aud other articles be
longing to the Danviile Foundry and
Machine company,was Monday sent
enced by Judge Evans to one- year in
the county jail.
Hite, who had been confined in jail!
in the interim between his arrest and,
appearance at court, pleaded guilty to
the charge. Several witnesses were
called, however, that the court might
know all the circumstances.
Walter Ricketts, the night watch
man who caught the prisoner on the
grounds and discovered the booty, was
the first witness.
Officer John Grier Yorls, who made
the arrest aud to whom Hite acknowl
edged that he iiad taken the articles,
was also on tiie stand. The articles
stolen aud recovered consisted of brass
valves of different kinds, along with
rolls of belting, some of it new, the
total value being over SSB. Some of
the brass recovered by Officer Yorls
was found hidden among the springs
of a couch in Hito's residence.
Irvin Yauuau, who wa3 called as
witness explained that he had identifi
ed the articles recovered as tlie prop
erty of the Danville Foundry aud
Machine company.
Hite, the defendant, was called to
the stand to show that there were ex
tenuating circumstances. He had be
come repentant, he said, and when he
was caught, instead of stealing goods,
lie was in the act of bringing back
wtmt he had surreptitiously removed
from ttie works the Saturday night
previous. He is twenty-eight years of
age and has a wife and to small chil
dren. He aimitted that he drank oc
casionally aud that ou the Saturday
preceding his arrest he had spent $1.75
for drink.
In passing sentence Judge Erans
told the defendant that he felt con
vinced from his plea thai he was a
bad man. The sentence of the court
wasjthat Abram Hite piy the costs of
prosecution, a tin.of twenty-five dol
lars aud undergo imprisonment in the
county jail for a period of one year.

severe at times that I was hardly able
to mova and there was a soreness
across my kidneys. A lameness across
my loins added io my misery and there
was a complete retention of the kid

tiie secretions caused me great annoy

Showers during the day made it some-!
: what unpleasant, but the weather did!
not seem to interfere much with vot- j
j iug. As shown by the results the vote :
j was quite up to that commonly prilled '
i at primary elections.
CONTEST FOR SHERIFF !
! There were seven Democratic candid- j
j ates for sheriff. Tho usual rivalry ex
j isted and a close personal canvas was '
made,yet there was an absence of per.- j
sonality aud partisan bitterness in the ;
campaign. The same might be said as
related to the Republican candidates
for sheriff, of whom there wore two.
The total vote received by each of the
candidates for sheriff is given in the
i table at the head of this column.

Concealed Weapons.
Once ia a college town the rumor
that students were carrying concealed
weapons reached the ears uf the local
police. The chief at once issued sit-In
gent orders that the heinous pra tire
should be stopped. One day a group
of them passed a policeman, and one
of the students in so doing put his
hand to his hip pocket. Then, as i f
recollecting himself in time, lie hastll.
withdrew it and looked sheepishly at
the policeman.
"What have yon in that pocket?" the
latter asked sternly.
Instead of answering, the student
and all his companions, as if panic
stricken, started to run. After a chase
all the students were cornered and or
dered to deliver up whatever they had
In their hip pockets.
Meekly they obeyed. Each one car
ried a corncob. The remarks of the
policemen cannot possibly be reeord

England' 3 Generals.
| There has not been an Kuglish gen
eral since Marlborough. Wellington
was born at Dangan castle. Meatli, of
! an old Irish family called Wesley nnd
christened In Dublin. Wolfe was born
at Ferneaux abbey, Kildare, and chris
tened at Westerham—nearly In the
same case as the Brontes (Brunty).
His grandfather defended Limerick
against William 111.
Sir John Moore and the Naplers were
Scotchmen, and so was Abercrotnble
(Egypt); so were Napier of Magdala,
Crawford and Clyde. Wolseley, Rob
erts and Kitchener are Irish; so was
Gough. The generals and statesmen
j who saved India to Great Britain were
j Nelll, Nicholson, the two Lawrences
(Irish), Edwards (Welsh) and Hose
(Scotch).
I know of Wolfe because my great
grandfather served under htm at Que
bec. His Irish birth was corroborat
ed to me by Captain Dunne, once well
known in literary circles of a Queens
county family. I don't know whether
Scotchmen like to be called English,

on May 20th. Following are some ex
tracts :
"I have jnst returned from a trip In
the section of the country near Olan

have ever been. There are only Indians
there, who, with the exception of a
breech cloth,are entirely naked. They

DEATH RATE
FLUCTUATES,
The report of the local registrar
for May allows that typhoid fever,
which caused a little alarm a couple
of weeks ago, is rapidly disappearing;
also that the public had an exaggerat
ed idea of the extent of the outbreak.
During May seveu cases of typhoid
fever were reported. In ail, Bince the
first case of the present outbreak,there
have been only nine cases. There are
only four dwellings placarded at pres
ent. At the ottier planes the patients
are regarded as convalescent and the
premises are released. The last case
of typhoid fever reported previous to
the present octbreak occurred on
Marcli Bth. In April there was no ty
phoid. There have been no cases re
ported since May 20th.
I The local board of health requires
1 tlie placarding of dwellings in which
. typhoid fever exists, not to regula.e
i intercourse with tiie family so much
as to afford a meat s whereby milk-
I men and others may know (Mat the
| disease exists au rite premises and
way take the prescribed precaution.
During Ma*, seveu cases of measles
| were reported ; nut! r a-e of chicken
I pox ami one case of pneumonia. There
jis probably ii.ore tliau the usual
I muouut of ninlatt'i! fever considering
; the season of the yeat, but the public
j health im the whole is good,
j During May, tv.eutv-fivs naths
were reported. Six ot these or en, red
at the hospital for the itisnt-e. The
I death rate fluctuates considetab!v. In
I April it was sixteen; iu March it was
| thirty-four. Offsetting the sixteen
j deaths in April were twenty-out
births. The report of the births for
I May is not vet complete.

' Kidney trouble has

I* {IX that it is not uticom
/ 7 ■VVv m°ti for a child to b*
bo™ afflicted witk
weak kidneys. If the
child urinatestoooften, if the urine scalds
the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an
age when it should be able to control the
passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet
ting, depend upon it, thecause of the diffi

step should be towards the treatment of

trouble is due to a diseased condition of
the kidneys and bladder and not to a
habit as most people suppose.
