SUNDAY AT THE Y. M. G. A.
A Large Crowd and Profitable
Service.

Mr.. Samuel r. Harris conducted the
service Sunday at O'Clock. The meet
ing will hereafter be held at that hour.
The service was rather a novel one.
The leader announced that it would
be Question Meeting, and called on
Geo. Harrell, who spoke for ten QO)
minutes on "What shall it profit a
man if he gain the whole world and
lose his own SOUL" Mr.. Norwood
Thomas followed in short, but very
earnest talk on the same question. DR..
F. S. Harris then followed, and spoke
On Christ's words to Peter, "Lovest
thou me.' These talks were prac-
teal, pointed, earnest and persuasive.
The leader then added few we'll chosen
remarks, which interested all. The
general secretary was next called on,
and responded in ten minute address
on the last question, s'Lovest thou
me-" At the close of his address,
every man in the meeting rose to his
feet, signifying bis hearty desire to
manifest more love to Christ in the
every day life. The secretary then
lead the congregation in an earnest
prayer of conservation, and thus closed
another most interesting young mems
meeting. Those who attend the
Sunday services commend, most
highly, the good work being accom-
plished by the Association. Ifany are
doubtful about the usefulness of the
\. NJ. c. \. he has only to attend
these services, and he will be con-
WINGED of the beneficial character ofthe
work now being carried on under the
present excellent management.

DEATH OF REV. j. G.. PRICE. ID. ID.
The Ablest Negro in the South, and an
Honor to His Race,

Rev. Joseph c. Price, D. D., Presi-
dent of Livingstone College, died at
his home in this city of Bright's disease
Of the kidneys, at 1915 O'Clock last
night. He had been in poor health
for several months and for some time
it had been known that his malady was
incurable and his death has been ex-
pected for several days
DR.. Price was more than an or
binary man and his death is not only
a loss to the institution of which he
was the executive head and to his race,
but also to North Carolina. He loved
his State and was respected and
esteemed by all classes Of its citizens.
DR.. Price was a native of North
Carolina and spent his whole life in
the State. He was born in Elizabeth
City in 1854 and moved to Newberne
when small boy, where he lived until
1882, when he came to Salisbury.
Since that time he has resided here
and conducted himself in such a
manner as to command the respect of
all who knew him. He was we'll
educated, being 4 graduate of Lincoln
University and the Theological Semi
nary of the \. NJ. Z. Zion Church.
He was elected president of Living
stone College in 1882 and to his efforts
the success Of the institution is mainly
due
As an educator and orator DR..
Price took high rank. He was with
out a superior among his race in any
respect, and few speakers anywhere
surpassed him in persuasive cloQuence
and choice language He gave the
whole of his life to the elevation and
improvement of the negro, choosing
the task of raising them mentally and
morally in preference to political or
church honors. He refused the office
of bishop of his church more than
once and also declined the appoint
ment of Minister to Liberia rendered
him by the President of the United
States.
1t is hard to estimate the value Of
such man. y life spent in the ser
vice of ones fellows is of incalculable
good. We do not think it exaggera-
ton to claim that DR.. Price has done
more for his people than any other
negro who has ever lived, and he was
the zenith of his power and usefulness
when death claimed him. Young and
vigorous his death seems little Short
of a calamity. But the good he has
done will not die with him. On the
contrary it will live and serve as an
example and incentive to all colored
youths who desire 10 be useful citizens
and to make for themselves a name

The State Normal and Industrial
School.

In private letter to us Prof. Charles
D. McIver, president of the State Nor
NAL and Industrial School for Girls, at
Greensboro, says:
We could not have hoped for a bet
ter opening. Both as to the number
and as to the general character of our
patronage. our students are, taken
as whole. just what we want. We
have our dormitories full and more
than hundred boarding in private
families. They come from eighty odd
counties. SO that there is not any large
section Of the State without repre-
sentative. The average age is be-
tween 10 and 20. and nearly three
tourths of them would not have gone
TO any other institution in this State,
if they had not come here. A very
large number of these are paying
their own expenses without any help
from their parents or others. About
twenty of them are graduates from
other institutions in this State.

AS TO JUDGE BONDS SUCCESSOR.

L
The Charlotte Observer speakes in
this wise Of Senator Ransom in con-
nection with the vacant United States
Circuit Court Judgeship:
1t was quite an honor to North
Carolina that her distinguished son,
Matt. w. Ransom, could have the
vacant Circuit Court Judgeship if he
desired it. But whether he accepts it
or not, there is no doubt that no better
qualified jurist in the country could be
selected for the place.
We have it upon what we consider
good authority, direct from Washing
ton, that Senator Ransom could have
the appointment if he would take it.
But he prefers to remain in the Senate
and stand for reelection again. The
same writer thinks that if a North
Carolina man gets the place it will be
Hon. John S. Henderson, member of
Congress from the Salisbury district.
The names of Justices Clark, Avery
and McRae, ofthe Supreme Court, Capt.
c. NJ. Cooke, of Louisburg, Judge
Thos. c. Fuller, of Raleigh, Maj. John
w. Graham, of Hillsboro, and Col.
Ham c. Jones, of Charlotte, are also
mentioned in this connection. The
trouble with our people is likely to be
want of unity and cooperation in
pushing the claims of any particular
man. They usually 60 in for every
body and get nothing. Judge Bonds
successor might be a North Carolina
man if the right one was decided upon
and the case properly presented to
President Cleveland. We have enough
good material to select a United
States Circuit judge or any other kind
from.

THE Milton CHr0nirLe, by NJ. l..
King, is new candidate for favor and
fortune in the journalistic field. The
second number is just out, but it is
old enough to get caught by that
fraud the alleged Niagara Advertising
Agency, of Avon, n. Y. For the
benefit of our brother publisher we will
state that pay in advance is refused
and pay at any time will never be
forthcoming. Both the party sending
out the advertisements and the Avon
Medical Company itself are denounced
as dead beats and humbugs.

The text Of the Voorhees, repeal bill
passed by the Senate is as follows:
"That SO much Of the act approved
