THE DEATH ROLL.

Octavius Coke, Secretary of State, North
 Carolina.
 Raleigh N. C., Aug. 30.-OctaVius Coke, secretary of state, died at his home here this afternoon after over five weeks illness of typhoid fever, during nearly all of which time he was delirius.
 He was born at Williamsburg, Va, in 1S41, his father being a wealthy planter there. At the beginning of the war he entered the Confederate service and served gallantly throughout the war, att taining the rank of captain. He was severely wounded at Sharpsburg. He became a lawyer soon after the war, and located at Edenton, N. C., where he mar ried Miss Elizabeth Wood. In 1876 he was elected state senator In 1879 he married Miss Kate Fisher of this city and made Raleigh his home, becoming @ planter as well.
 In 1888 he was elected democratic state chairman and thereafter was always a leading figure in state politics. In April, 1891, on the death of William Saunders Governor Fowler appointed him secre- tary of state to fill the vacancy. and the following year he was unanimously nom mated by his party and elected. He was a brother of Senator Richard Coke of Texas J. A. Coke and Alexander Coke, prominent attorneys of Richmond, Va, and Dr. l.. c. Coke of Martin county, N. C. He leaves a widow, three sons and three daughters. He was one of the finest orators in the state.
 The council of state was convened by Governor Carr this afternoon, and the family was requested to permit the re- mains to lie in state in the rotunda of the capitol The family declined the request. His funeral will take place from Christ Episcopal church. of which he was a member.
 The council adopted the following reso- lution: 'In the death of Octavius Coke we, his associates in the legislative de- partment in the state of North Carolina, have lost an able councillor and a warm friend and the state faithful and dis tinguished officer and we tender to his family our sincere sympathy in their great affliction."

land, the world of wonders. You
know you are at home yet when
you gaze out in unnumbered direc-

eye you yet see vision Of regal halls,
lofty apartments battled in the
mellow glow of brilliant lights,
you can well imagine brave cour-
iers and stately danes passing
through these halls of splendor and
bidding you royal welcome to
their homes OF mysterious beauty.

one and to miss it now is to miss
