A LIFE OF SENATOR VANCE, BY
HIS WIDOW.

Mrs. Vance will have published, at
as early a day as possible, life of her
late distinguished husband. The
volume will also contain the most
valuable of his speeches, lectures and
letters, and in the proper preparation
Of it Mrs. Vance will spare no time or
means. OF course time will be required
to gather the necessary material, and
for any assistance that may be furnished
her in this direction she will be very
grateful.
The people of North Carolina will
read the foregoing announcement with
great pleasure. The career OF Senator
Vance was rich in events which are
capable of being woven into history
as attractive as any tale of fiction, and
his widow has every qualification for
the preparation, in the very best style,
of work which could not fail TO be
of interest if wrought in the most
homely fashion. Every citizen of the
STATE will want copy of this book in
his home, and its appearance will be
inpatiently awaited. or

NANCE'S PORTRAIT.

The Washington correspondent OF
Statesville Landmark says:
Mrs. Vance is writing biography
of her lamented husband. x x
North Carolina owes this lady many a
debt of gratitude, but one of the
deepest is that she had a superb
portrait of the Senator painted few
years ago which does him justice. The
portrait of him which hangs in the
Governor Mansion in Raleigh is an
abomination and ought to be burned.
The first Mrs. Vance had one which
was also a very bad likeness. But
Mrs. Florence Steele Vance, being a
very fine Judge of art, determined she
would have a picture of him which
represented true to life his beautiful
grey head with his majestic poise, his
kindly eyes, his firm mouth and his
strong profile. 1t was finished after
laborlous care on her part, and now
hangs, superbly framed, over the
mantel of her front parlor at I627
Massachusetts avenue, this city The
next Legislature of North Carolina
ought to get her to let copies of it be
taken for the Governor Mansion
for Chapel Hill, and for the United
States capitol. The people of NORTH
Carolina must not neglect to place hi:

Hon. G. M. Cooke Lecture at the
Y. M. G. A.

A fine audience faced Capt. Cooke
at the Y. NJ. c. A. Friday night, on
the occasion of his lecture before that
body. Mr.. Cooke was introduced in
we'll chosen words, by Mr.. T. T. Hicks.
The lecture was full ofhelpful thoughts
for the young, and abounded with fine
sentiments, and at times with humor.
He urged the young men and women
to cultivate character, and to guard
against every form of dissipation either
of mind or sense which would enter
fere with the highest development of
the better nature. Among many other
good things he said Don't neglect
your mind. Read good books. l was
surprised to find dust on the excellent
books in your library here. l men,
toned the fact to the secretary, as an
indication that you did not use them.
There is Scott and Dickens and Haw-
thorne and Irving, and the pure, ele-
waiting sentiment in the poems of
Whittier and Longfellow, all of which
works you have here. Oh, do not
read trashy novels, don't waste your
time and ruin your mind by indulging
in such reading. Money getting is not
the chief end Of life. If you have
talent for that use it-make money
but for good purpose. I'd rather
be the poorest honest man, than 10 die
as rich as Jay Gould. No man has
a right to hoard money when the
world is in distress.
Mr.. Cooke very touchingly told an
army experience of a dying mans testi-
mony to the value and reality of re-
ligion. This he said illustrated his
own. and he thought it not improper
to relate it, and in conclusion urged
his hearers to embrace Christianity as
the only hope in reaching the highest
ideal in life

AT THE Y. M. G. A. SUNDAY.
The Secretary's Address on "Evi-

McCracken Next SUNDAY,

Rev. T. M. Johnson, pastor of the
Methodist Protestant church, had
charge of the services Sunday at the
Young Mems Christian Association,
and Mr.. Norwood Thomas conducted
the song service. After singing several
stirring pieces, one prayed about thus
so, Lord have mercy upon those who
show their lack of interest for the

might show their love by their works,

forth in behalf of the young men,"

forward and announced the subject of
the Bible reading as Evidences of
Regeneration The following is a
brief outline of the reading'' which
was practical and helpful, and delivered
in the Secretary's usual forceful
manner.
The Bible represents two classes of

error as to their relationship to God,

VERY BAD TASTE.

We are firm believer in the efficacy
of newspaper advertising, and admire
enterprise and originality along that
line, but there is such thing as over
doing the matter some times. 1t IS
well enough to attempt to Tx public
attention upon what you are dong or
offer for sale, bat that does not license
one to resort to methods that are not
only questionable in character bat
absolutely brutal in nature. The toll
lowing is fair sample OF this sort OF
advertising. A patent medicine
concern in a we'll known Southern city
is disgusting readers OF some OF the
papers by publishing the following
advertisement

which for want Of taste and down
right cruelty was ahead OF anything OF
the kind we had seen. If advertisers
have no more sense of proprlety and
refinement of feeling than to resort to
such schemes as this to attract pub &c
notice, newspaper publishers ought to
have too much self-raspect to accept
such business. All such mountebalk

THE COLLEGE APPROPRIATIONS

Mr.. p. II. Gill, of Vance county,
writes a letter to the Po%rfSSITr
Farmer in which he takes strong ground
against those who are engaged IN the
reform movement allyins Themselves
with any faction opposing the State
appropriation to colleges. He says
the Populists have quite enough to
attend to in other matters beside this.
We make an extract. Mr.. Gill says
see from the articles going the
rounds in the papers that the leaders
of the Baptist church are trying to
carry into this campaign the State
appropriation to the colleges. noticed
in your last issue an article virtually
advising all voters to refuse to vote tor
any candidates who will not pledge
themselves to vote against the appro-
priations to the colleges. Now | was
in hopes that none of our papers would
pay any attention to a controversy
gotten up by any church at this time ];
we have much more important matters
to settle now than this. These schools
have been aided for years without
much protest Why inject them into this
campaign? This is question
that can be safely left to the people to
settle when they get into power. Then
after full investigation it will be settled
right but ours is not ten cent cause
in the matter of education, for in that
is our main hope in the future.
