A Serious Accident.

On Tuesday last at Shores ferry
on the Yadkin River there was quite
a serious accident.
Owing to the recent rains the river
had risen about seven feet and the
current was very strong but the fer
ry-man attempted to cross with sew
eral men and a team when the wire
broke letting ferry-boat, cargo and
all drift down the river.
The ferry-man was badly injured
both his arms being broken and
seriously bruised elsewhere.
No one else suffered injury.

Rev. H. A. Brown has been pastor
of the First Baptist Church for four
teen years.
He has held his passionate longer
than any other minister in the State
who now holds one.
His labors during this time have
been crowned with success. He has
served the church faithfully and ac-
ceptably and it has prospered under
his administration.
Sunday morning, as announced,
Mr.. Brown preached his ami
versary sermon. He was greeted
with large congregation as usual.
The church was beautifully decora-
ted. Above the folding doors at the
back of the pulpit, leading to the
annex, was large arch made of
evergreens, containing the two
words: Fourteen Years." A large
ring made of the same material also
hung f, ON the ceiling just in front
the figures GA"
particular text but started off by
saying that there were only three
references to the term fourteen
years. III the Bible. TIE first is in
the boz k of Genesis where Jacob
served for Rachel fourteen years.
The second reference is found in
Paul's letter to the Gallations-2nd
chapter and LIST verse-ssThen four
teen years after went up again to
Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took
Titus with me Also"
The third is Paul's vision in his
second letter to the Corinthians.
- the close Mr.. Brown spoke
ne Church's work during the
past i, car; said that 80 new members
had been received-55 by baptism
and "a by letter. He also stated

been remarkable in the Church's
progress.
II want to organize young mems
prayer meeting for the coming year,
said Mr.. Brown in his concluding re-
marks. I want also to have a mis-
sionary meeting once a month";"
Another thing which I have spo-
ken to you about before is our house
of worship. The time has come
when we need a larger Church build
ing and want to urge upon the i'm
portance of this need. I am glad to
say, however, that steps have al
ready been taken in this direction
Mr.. Brown did not give any fur
Their particul ,rs in his discourse re-
garding the erection of another
Church building, but it is under
stood that the members have three
lots in view and are now consider
ing which site to select upon which
to build a large and handsome
Church edifice.

have led people to think that he may be

for his pardon. Said petition is already

The concert of Jan. II, to be given by
the New York Philharmonic Club, assist
ed by Miss Marion Weed, promises to be
great musical treat This is their four
tenth season and they have all they can
do at 900 10 $500 night. The n. Y. Her
aid says:
The club is composed of a sextette OF
musicians who have obtained special
prominence as soloists in the best musical
circles; and as result their services af-
ford most delightful evening to those
who can appreciate high class of cham
Der music admirably interpreted by these
we'll known players.
The gentlemen have now played togeth-
er SO long and frequently that there is
scarcely musical subject within the COM
pass of their instruments which they DO
not illustrate with a degree OF art that
makes them peers OF any similar club In
America. They have thus contributed
much to the progress OF polite musical ed
ucation in our midst and have aided large
ly in fostering a taste for the classic num-
bers of the master composers. They have
also exercised rare discrimination as to
the exact measure OF the popular want in
this direction, and as a general thing pre-
sented programs so varied and yet instruc.
tive that our best citizens have been glad
to attend their soirees in large numbers.
The Club is accompanied by Miss Mar
ion Weed OF New York, contralto whose
voice is OF the purest and best quality.
She has been thoroughly schooled, and
the rare art of refined sing
ing. Her accomplishments would have
enhanced the effect OF any voice, but Miss
Weed needed nothing beside her own abil-
ity to commend her.-Buffalo Courier.
