Capt. William Hettrick
Dead.

BY the death of Capt. Hettricl
| Edenton loses one of he1
most worthy citizens. A quiet
unostentatious man, who attend,
ed strictly to his own affairs, anc
conceded to others the same
privilege. A brief sketch of his
life will be interesting:
He was born Oct. Il, 1927, al
Hulnmel's Wharf, Snider county,
Penn. He was Of German de-
cent, and claimed among his ans
cestry some Of the best known
families of that State. Arriving
at manhood's age he went West,
and spent several years Of activ>
ity in Illinois and Ohio; but to
Pennsylvania he was always a
loyal and devoted son and count
ed his frequent visits to his mas
tive State among the greatest
pleasures of his life.
When the tocsin of Civil war
was sounded in 1860 he Joined
the Union Army, attained the
rank of Captain, and was one of
the bravest of those who fought
under the "stars and stripes.'
In 1872 he came to North Car
olina. Since that time his record
as a citizen of this State has been
honorable and useful. He was
one of the first to introduce
Pound Net fishing in Abe
marie waters, an industry which
has grown to great proportions;
furnishing profitable employs
lnent to hundreds of men, Wo-
men and children, and materially |
adding to the available resources
of the State.
On the 2Sth of June, 1881, he
was happily married to Alice
L. White. Two children, Ernest |
and Allie, have been given to
bless that union; these with the
devoted wife bear the grief Of
his sudden taking away.
Capt. Hettrick was a man
who loved his home, his family
and his friends. He was fond
ot books and current literature,
md was we'll posted upon all the
great questions of the day; few
men not engaged i'll professional
ife were as widely read and as
ntelligently Informed as he.
He was man to whom the
worthy poor did not appeal IN
7ain; he gave them of his means,
lot lavishly, but wisely and un
'stertatiously. Better still, he
lelped men to help themselves.
lie himself believed in work
nd as a monument to his indus
ny and business tact, leaves a
modest fortune to those depen-
ent on his care.
Suddenly and unexpectedly he
vas called to end his stewardship
II earth. Tuesday, OCT. 20, he

morning he was stricken with
from this stroke he
lever rallied, lingering until 1
'clock am. Saturday, he breath
d his last. Monday, Nov. 4, he
vas buried from the Methodist
hurch. A large coucourse of
riends attended the service and

Cemetery, where it was inferred

The sympathy of the commu-

He Saved Drowning Man When others
Stood Idly by.
NEWPORT, Jan. 4.-Frank Adams, a
seaman gunner in the diving class at the
torpedo station, performed an heroic act
in rescuing Harry Ferris, who had skated
into an airhole at Easton's pond. Several
skaters stood by and watched young Fer
rs as he rose to the surface and disap-
peared again, but none offered assistance.
Adams was at distance and upon ar
irving at the scene he stripped of his
outer garments, broke the thin ice around
the hole, then dived for the lad and
brought him up insensible. He took young
Ferris to the firm ice, where they were
hauled out of the water. Ferris was soon
restored to consciousness.

room was ceiled and almost in an instant
the whole was in flames. Jumping out of
bed he ran to open the door. but had con-
siderable trouble to get out. Before his
wife could reach the door with one of tho
children she fell down suffocated, with
her night dress on.
Thompson dragged her out and toro off
her burning night dress and rushed back
into the flames for his two children. The
youngest one was burned all over its body
and died shortly after. The eldest is
badly burned and is in a very dangerous
condition. The mother is badly burned
about the body.
Thompson, who was perfectly nude,
with the thermometer registering nearly
20 degrees below zero, hastily put the suf-
ferers in the hen house aud started to
run over to John Grants one and a quar-
ter miles, without n stitch of clothing on.
After running short distance his feet
started to freeze. Returning, all he could
find to clothe himself with was an apron
and two pieces of women's garments which
ho tied around his feet and head. Start
ing out again no struggled forward to
within 100 yards of the house, when he
fell down almost frozen. Fortunately he
was seen as he fell and carried into the
house. Thomsson's feet and hands are
badly frozen and they may have to be
amputated. His wife and surviving child
are suffering terribly, both from burns
and frost bites, and are in a dangerous
condition.

BOSTON BANKERS WOULD FIX 1T
The Currency the subject of Post-Pran-
dial Discussion.


BosToN, Mass, Jan. 4.-The annual
banquet of the Boston Merchants asso-
citation occurred at the Hotel Vendome
tonight with 200 guests present. At the
head OF the table sat the president of the
association, John A. Lane. On his imme-
date right was Hon. A. p. Hepburn, pres
ident of the Third National bank, New
York; Thomas c. Catchings, congress-
man from Mississippi, and Hon. William
Dodsworth of New York.
Lane opened the post-prandial exercises.
Turning his attention to the banking and
currency question, which was the subject
of the evening, he suggested how the new
banking and currency bill should be con-
structed.
ut should be strictly national, every
note issued bearing the stamp of the
comptroller and guarantee when due.
This means no state banks. We cannot
part with a national currency upon any
consideration whatever"
President Hepburn began his address
by saying that our currency system is
wrong, ill-conceived, unresponsive to the
various interests of n great nation, and
prejudicial TO renewed and stable pros
perlty. He then entered into history of
the greenback, the outgrowth of war
exigency, as he said, and he also sketched
the career of the national banking
system,

Dan Walton Huns and Fishes With the
Aid of Ills Teeth.
WALTON, \. Y, Jan. 4.-Dan Walton of
this place is the best known hunter in
Delaware county. He fell between the
cars n score of years ago and lost both of
his arms and one leg. He can hunt or
fish, nevertheless, and has captured some
of the finest trout taken from the streams
hereabouts. His gun or fishing rod is
strapped TO the stump of his right arm,
and he uses his teeth where other men use
their hands.
One day last week Dan took gun and,
accompanied by a hound, went in quest OF
fox whose tracks had been seen in the
neIghborhood. The hound soon started
up n fox, and Dan fired and wounded
him, but did not bring him down. The
fox made the usual circle and Dan killed
him. Dan slung the game over his
shoulder with his teeth, and walked home
with his prize.
