IN MEMORIAM.
Resolutions of Respect Upon the Death
of R,Y. S D. FIR .nklin.

| Resolutions of Respect Upon the Deatf
! of Rev. S. D. FIR ,nklin.
The following resolutions wer,
| passed by the Winston Lodge No
1877, A. F. and A. ~ upon the recent
/ death of Rev. S. d. Franklin:
| Seldom does the providence of God
/ fan upon human life in "a more appal
ling form than did death come to oul
| genial, generous and beloved broth
! er, Rev. $. d. Franklin, whose un
| timely death this Lodge, the church
! of God and the entire circle of his
! friends and acquaintance SO sadly
| mourn to-day. In the midst of life
and usefulness he has fallen. All
| know the sad Incidents which
brought about his departure and
need no more be recited. Our broth
| er has passed away. His mission on
earth has ceased and his labors have
been finished We shall see his face
nor hear his voice no more, but his
good name, his noble qualities still
live in the memory of all who knew
him and will not besoon forgotten.
1t is a charitable sentiment that no
one SHOULD speak i'll of the dead; that
their errors, faults and fr;,ilties, what
ever they may have been, should be
covered by the mantle of oblivion,
but it does not follow from this that
their endearing qualities, their noble
deeds and valuable services to socie-
ty and the world should go unrecor-
ded and be suffered to pass without
notice appropriate actions on the
part of his associates and successor.
Be it therefore
Resolved, That in the life of our be-
loved brother we had the exemplica-
ton of character unsullied by sell
fish or sorded motives-a spirit of
high and noble resolves-a man OF
great perseverance and devotion to
principle and the right. AS Chris
tan man and a minister of Christ he
was unswerving and faithful; as a
friend devoted and true; as Mason
bright and ever ready to respond to
the call of a brother.
Resolved, That the sad announce
ment of his death is received by us in
the deepest sorrow and profoundest
regret, and in his untimely decease
this Lodge has lost n faithful and de-
voted member; the church Jealous
and efficient minister, and his family
a loss which can never be repaid.
Resolved, That as "a further evil
dence of our continued atfiictiOn and
esteem we wear for thirty days the
Mason's badge OF mourning.
Resolved, That a copy of this
proceeding and these resolutions be
spread upon the minutes of this
lodge, to be held forever as a perpet-
ual memento Of the virtues of our
brother, and as well our love and af-
fiction for him, and also a copy be
sent to the family of the deceased
and TO the public press for publica-
ton. j. W. ALsPAUGH,

THE IRON FIELDS STOKES.
[ From the Dnnbnru Rennrfsr ]

From the Danbury Reporter,]
Prof. Job. Atkins, who is without
doubt one of the best informed miner
alogists, as well as practical mining
engineer of large experience has been
here three or four months and is put
ting in some trial pits with few
hands, but all the time busy as a bee
looking the country over. He keeps
his own counsels, but says he is max
ing new discoveries every day We
do not know who he is here for. Prof.
Mite arrived last week in the interest
of the r. 4 S. Railroad. Says he
does not want to buy property, but
is merely looking after the prospects
for freights. He is comparatively a
young man, but of course his COM
pany which is composed to large
extent of mineral men know what he
is. Prof. Atkins speaks in high terms
of him. Suppose that he has been
sent here to confirm reports of Profs
Shelley, Smith, Col. Tripler and 9TH
ers, all of whom have made favora-
BILE reports as to the quantity and
quality of the iron herr.

MADISON MATTERS.
TFrom the Madison Leader. I

Madison can afford to compare
notes with any town of it's size in the
State in respect to the number of
buildings in course of construction.
A construction force has been en-
gagged several days in making a con-
Meeting link between the Roanoke
and Southern and the Cape Fear and
Yadkin Valley railroads at this
place. The rapidly increasing freight
traffic at this point makes the con-
nectiOn not a convenience only, but
also II necessity. The work will prob
ably be finished next week
A citizen of Madison went into the
coal mining business on limited
scale the other day In his rambles
in the vicinity of town, he discovered
vein of black mineral substance,
that upon examination, proved to
be coal. He Immediately began OPP
Grafton, and in a few minutes, sue
posit, which, he positively asserts,
was sufficient to heat Il cup of water.
He is neither elated nor dismayed,
however, by the result Of his mining
experiment; for although he was not
repaid for his labor, he was not con-
WINGED that large deposits of coal do
not exist in this locality. In fact,
his studies and observations in re-
gard to the subject lead conclusively
to- the belief that the conditions here
in the coal forming ages were favora-
BILE to the formation ofcoalbeds, and
that the coal beds are here. In due
season, doubtless, they will be proper
ly explored and be found to be avail
able for human industry.

Immense Tobacco Sales.

For the last three days the city has
been inundated by perfect sea of
tobacco. Every inch of warehouse
spach has been occupied and even the
driveways used. This, too, nothwith-
standing the fact that double sales
have been run every day.
On yesterday 18th street, 4th street,
Liberty street and Main street were
nearly blocked in the principal part
of the town with tobacco wagons.
After jamming all the warehouse
yards, the old Academy lot and every
available back lot, the wagons he
to take to the streets and the result
was that they blocked them SO that
there was barely room for one wag-
on to pass the center. The number
of wagons here yesterday was vari-
ously estimated at from 700 to 1900
and the number promises to be fully
as large today. The prices were very
iair, considering the immense breaks,
and held up remarkably well.
We suppose the sale yesterday was
the largest ever known in Winston
and it would indeed have been a rev.
elatiOn to a visitor After looking
at the sea of wagons and the thou
sands of dollars worth of tobacco, he
would no longer wonder why Wins
ton is growing as it is.
Next week we expect to give some
of the figures of this weeks sales that
will be of interest not only to Wins
toms friends, but to the public at
large. They will reveal some facts
Indicative of a prosperity never be-
fore known in North Carolina.

WInston's Market House.

The BoardOf Commissioners have
instructed thecommittee on mark
ct house to have the plans of
the building prepared, so that
work can commence about Jan
uary LIST. The building is to be
three stories high in front and two
stories in the rear, besides a base
ment. 1t is to front on 4th street and
is to be provided with every conve-
nience. The front is to contain Off
ces for the town officials and proba-
blv several store houses. The rear is
to be devoted entirely to market
stalls. Several entrances will pro-
vide for easy ingress and egress. The
second story is to be fitted up for the
firemen. 4 circular hole is to be
made in the center of which is a pole
on which the firemen will slide down
to the engine room below. A hose
tower will be provided for An armo-
ry for the Forsyth Rifiemen will also
be provided for on the second floor if
satisfactory terms can be agreed up
on. The third floor will, in all prob
ability, be t-large hall, to be rented
as a lodge room or used for a public
city hall. The estimated cost of the
entire building is about $4,000.
This-is a crude outline of what the
structure will be. The details, of
course, have not been settled, but
this will serve to show the public that
Winston proposes to erect building
that will be an ornament and a
source of pride to her people.

received from outside parties to 8
large amount.
There are mo flies' on this COM

kindly but frankly that we need the

MERCHANTS.

NOR THE PAST THREE SEA-
l. sons we have been unable to sup
ply the wants of the merchants Of
this vicinity with Holiday Goods.
But this year we have the stock four
times larger than ever before
greater variety-in fact we can
show you anything you will find in
any toy jobbing house, and the best
part of it is shat we guarantee to sell
YOU Toys cheaper than any New
York importer. You will say this
is strange, but tits not; we will
explain. About four-fifths of the
Toys sold in this country are i'm
ported, and the new Mckinley
tariff law hits them hard. As for
an instance: Last August we bought
5-inch silver vases at S4.85 per
gross; today importers quote them
at 1913 per gross, and other goods
have advanced in proportion. Now
you see how we can undersell i'm
porters. Our entire stock of Toys
were bought in August and Sep
TENDER; we are compelled to sell
them before January 1st; we cannot
afford to carry them twelve months.
Importers can afford to hold them
for the high prices, for their trade
on this class of goods is every day
in the year.

oUAY's CENSUS PADDING.

There is not a possibility of doubt but
that QUAY, DUDLEY & Co. are playing
a big hand in the census work, with a
view Of increasing the Republican
strength in congress. The signs point
to a concerted movement by which the
census returns in strong Republican
communities are to be padded so as to
give the Republicans an additional con-
gresham here and there. There is
good reason to believe that the Mime
apolis census manipulators are working
under instructions from the QUAY
crowd, with the understanding that
they shall be backed up at Washington
in their nefarious scheme. Minnesota,
being strong Republican state, was
singled out as good field for QUAY's
missionaries to operate. Minneap-
oils was particularly inviting, be-
cause of the presence of senator
and representative in Washington who
are in high favor with the administra-
ton, and who are also residents of the
Flour City. with asenator, represent
alive, and the clerk of the senate, who
has record in census taking, in Wash
ington to protect Minneapolis interests,
and district attorney at home to staye
off investigation in the local courts, 1t
readily occurred to Boss QUAY that it
was the easiest thing in the world to
work Minneapolis for another Republic
can congressman. Putting the events
of the last few days together. it is easy
