LAST SAD RITES.
From q Southern Home to . Northern
Cline to Die


Death loves a shining mark and the
grim monster as often plncks beauti-
full and sweet flower as it does one
unpon which the days of decay have
fallen and already stand upon the very
verge of the grave and bending over
into it from the weight of years. And
the rider of the white horse could not
have singled out fairer victim than
when he came and took Miss Angie
Harris. the youngest sister of Mrs.
John Livingston, who resides at the
corner of Second and G.. streets, this
city, and where she died at the age OF
20 years and five months.
| Miss Harris had been an invalid for
something over year, suffering from
consumption and heart trouble. Her
home was at Henderson, n. G. Her
physician there told her that there was
but one chance for her life and that
was change of country and cline.
So two months ago, accompanied by
her sister next older, Miss Susie Har-
ris, she arrived at the home of her
Oldest sister, Mrs Livingston. After
recovering from the fatigue of her long
journey she appeared to brighten and
grow better. But after awhile she
again became worse and continued to
rapidly decline until death took her,
day before yesterday, and she was laid
away in Ridge Cemetery last evening
at O'Clock.
Deceased's mother died when she
was but year old, consequently she
was the baby and pet of the family OF
) four sisters and one brother, and being
of a very amiable and loveable DISPOSE
ton, she was beloved by all who knew
her. She was also devout Christian
young woman and member OF the
Methodist church.
At her funeral yesterday afternoon
Rev. J. w. Robinson conducted the
ceremonies, assisted by Revs. Fife and
Curry. The obsequies were very i'm.
pressive. By request Of deceased
4 when living the same scripture that
, was read over the bier Of her mother
nearly score of years ago, was read
over hers. The floral tributes were
numerous and beautiful and among
! them were a cross aud crown, two
! crosses, and three wreaths and severa
, bouuets; the coffin was strewn with
pansies and in the snow white hand O
the beautiful dead girl was a magnifi
cent boquet of Marechal Mel roses.

Henderson is one of the healthiest
towns in the State. Figures show THU
to be true. The table of mortuary re
ports from towns, for the year ending
March 31st, 1890, issued by the NORTH
Carolina Board of Health, shows tn
death rate of fourteen towns and cities
According to this authority only foul
,, towns in the State show a lower dealt
rate than Henderson, the rate here being
1874 per 1000, while Asheville, a note'

The Celebrated Panacea Springs.

DIR. II. G.. Herndon, Major n. A.
Gregory, Mr.. W. c. Reed and Capt.
John A. Williams. of Oxford, went
down to Panacea Springs Saturday.
These gentlemen, with the exception
of Captain Williams, are of the syndi-
cate that recently bought those cele-
brated springs, and their business down
there was to take steps looking to the
improvement of the property. 1t is
proposed to build a magnificent hotel
as one of the first things. The price
paid for the springs and 100 acres of
land attached was 100000. Captain
Williams, who has been principal agent
for the water, effected the sale, which
is said to be the largest one of the
kind ever made in the State.

Why Support tho Home Paper?

Why? Because, if for no better
reason, the home newspaper supports
you. You wake up once in awhile,
perhaps, and forsaking your private
business, in which for years you have
been immersed, you turn out and spend
day or an hour for the public good
at the polls fighting against the re-elec-
ton of boodler, at public meeting,
talking for water works or some new
enterprise-and then you turn to your
pursuit, leaving the newspaper to
clinch the victory or protect the re-
treat, as the case may be.
ia railroad or factory is wanted, the
newspapers are expected to work for
it. If public meeting is wanted for
any purpose, the newspaper is called
upon for free notice. If any of the
societies have supper Of any kind,
the newspaper is expected to give the
necessary notice. The newspaper must
puff the schools and everybody else to
advance the interests of the business
men of the place, and then give them
a handsome notice when they pass
away.
The newspaper man has been so
long the Waterman on the tower, or
the man on guard, that his service in
this line is taken as matter of course,
and the value of that service has fallen
too far in public appreciation.
But the newspaper man is not whin-
ing. Tie cares whether his service is
appreciated or not-everybody who is
anybody is sensitive to appreciation or
the denial of it: but he knows what be-
longs to his guild, and knowing, he is
going to continue his performance.
Still, when reasons are wanted for sup
porting the home paper, it is fair to
say that the newspaper should be sup.
ported because it is public benefit
contending for the public good when
! the public itself is drowsy or slumber.
7 ing deeply.
| But that, you may say, is a senti

No self respecting newspaper mar
would urge it alone. The strict bust

worth of newspapers to communit..

Our Furniture Houses .

The GOLD LEAF has always persist
emily talked up for home and home
people, and advocated the support OF
home industries and the encourage
ment of home effort. We have done
this in face of the fact that it was not to
our interest, financially, to do SO, for
what we have lost in patronage from
distance by such course is not more
than compensated for at home. But
we try to help others beside ourself.
As has often been asserted in these
columns no town Of its size has bet
ter class of merchants. or more varied
and extensive stocks of goods, than can
be found in Henderson. Nor are all
articles of merchandise sold closer any,
where.
But what we started out to speak OF
particularly is the beautiful and extern
sive assortment of furniture that can
be found right here at home. Hender-
son has two furniture houses that
would do credit to much larger city.
We refer to the stocks carried by S. Il
C. Watkins and N. Lehman. We de-
sire to speak of them because some peo-
pie have an idea that they can not get
anything nice enough for their parlor
or chamber unless it comes from Rich
mond or Baltimore or Philadelphia or
New York. This is a mistake as a
visit to their establishments will reveal
to you. The large and varied lines
carried by them afford a wide scope for
selections, for all styles and qualities
of bedroom, parlor and dining-room
sets are to be found in all the latest de-
signs, and at prices that will compare
favorably with any other market. Be
sides the fine grades of furniture they
keep also medium and low-priced goods
!. and can please you in whatever you
want.
We repeat there is no need of going
away from Henderson to buy furniture
The Messrs. Watkins and Mr.. Lehman
can offer inducements as great as an.
of the city houses, to dealers as well a
the retail trade, and judging from tn
large shipments to and from their es
: adjustments they are meeting with tn
success that they are so justly emit
+ tied to.
Besides these gentlemen Mr.. Johl
4 NJ. Barnes the old and well known fur
] niture dealer and undertaken, is still il
: the business and ready to serve his Gus
e toners at all times. He does not carr
+ very extensive stock but a select one
and what he may happen not to hav
on hand will be orded at short notice
n Mr.. Barnes sells his goods as low a
v any reliable dealer.
Competitors say we cant, we say "
can, customers say we dO-sell cheape
than any other in town.
