because OF their infinite number"
La concluding his sermon, he spoke
to the young ladies of the graduating
| class, saying: Il commend you to
the word OF God and commend the
word of God to you " Holding up his
Bible, Mr.. Caldwell stated that on the
first page he had written these words:
This is the thought of God" He
suggested that the mem oers of the
class write the same words ia their
Bibles
He spoke of the three forces which
enter into our lives. The first one is
the law of Observation-Disclosures which
we inherit. The second is the great
force Of environment, in which we
live and move-ipfiuence of our sur
roundings. Both of these, in many
the evils, however, that may be in
these Influences may be overcome if
we will introduce the third power in
our lives, and that third power is the
thought of God in the Bible.

But the Seniors were not to be dis

church was filed from the platform

the most appreciative audience in the
history OF the essay readings of the
past. The platform was beautiful in
its decorations of daises and roses,

interesting OCCASION.
/ The Commencement of the Wins
ton Graded Schools is an annual event
of great interest and Notwithstanding
the exercises of this year were held
on Saturday night and there were
other attractions in the community
at the same time, the commence
ment exercises of '97 was no
exception to its predecessors
in the matter of interest and at
tendance. Every seat in the Armory
was occupied before the opening hour
arrived and many had to make out
with standing room only.
The audience was greeted by Super
intendeEt Blair, who announced that
this was the twelfth commencement
occasion OF the schools and that the
graduating class this year was COM
posed of twenty, who had completed
most creditably the course of study
prescribed by the School Board
An earnest prayer was offered by
Rev. j. A. B. Fry, pastor Of Grace VI.
e Church.
Mr.. J. G. Buxton, Chairman of the
Board, to whom had been assigned the
duty Of presenting diplomas to the
graduates, said that the large audi
ence present showed that public in
terest has never tagged in the Graded
School work. The course of the
school the past year has been highly
satisfactory, said Mr.. Buxton. He
also directed attention to the recent
change in the charter, whereby the
tax from barrooms goes into the gen
eral fund instead of the school fund,
as heretofore, and that the expenses
are met by appropriations from the
Board Of Aldermen, thus eliminating
a source Of complaint. He spoke 10
complimentary terms of the outgoing
member Of the School Board, Mr. G..
w. Hinshaw, and of the incoming
member, Mr.. A. E. Holton. He re-
ferred with pleasure to the organic l.
tion OF an Alumni Association After

Officers Lively Experience.
A drummer who came In from Mt.
Airy late Monday Afternoon report
ed that two men were killed there on
Sunday. The name Of one of the men
was Fry The salesman did not give
the name of the other.
Ihe two men, so the drummer was
informed, were gambling. They got
into row but before they separated
made friends. Later Fry went to the
nome OF the other man and, calling
him to the door, shot him dead, the
oall entering his forehead.
ifey then went to the house of a
woman and tried to buy some Whis-
Key. saying he intended to kill him
self. The woman refused to let him
nave the whiskey. He then went to
another house and applied for some
thing strong TO drink. While there
an officer came up Fry snapped his
pistol at the deputy Sheriff hut it
tailed to fire. The two men clinched
and after lively scuffie Fry broke
loose and started TO run. In going
around the corner nf the house the
officer fired upon him. the
ball taking effect in the thigh. Fry
ran to the woods and was followed by
the deputy Sheriff. Both men ex-
changed several shots The last one
fired by the officer proved fatal to
Fry After falling to the ground, the
murderer raised up on one elbow and
spoke his last words. as follows:
you've killed me and I'm glad of il:
L expected to Kill myself"
fortunately for the officer, he was
not Injured.
Since the above was written it, is
learned that the names of the men
killed were ChallIe Fry and Charles
Atkins, both single and about 20
years old.

The Opening Concert-Seniors' Even
fngs - Baccalaureate Sermon
Meeting of Alumna Associa-
ton and Banquet.

Never better than last evening"
was the comment we heard on the
streets Saturday in regard to the
| opening concert of Commencement
| week. During Friday afternoon
the sky was overcast and refreshing
shower made the clear evening lust
right to tempt friends to go to the
concert. An hour before the time
| fixed for the beginning of the exercises
large company gathered waiting for
the doors to be opened.
Promptly at 7:45 the programme
was commenced and without pause
or break was rendered to the close
We note these general facts in regard
to the OCCASION: The piano selections
were classical, but at the same time
pleasing and popular. The touch and
execution was finished and correct,
and reflected credit on the Instructor
as well as the pupils. In vocal solos,
duets and semi-choruses the So me fin
1shed work was noticed. Quite a
number Of our Twin-City girls took
part ia the vocal selections and did
our community honor.
The eiOcutlOn was O<cOurse brought
to the highest point of excellence, as
u IIlC OdSO always III UulS department.
Some selections were pathetic and
some humorous, in fact the great va
riety OF the programme was one of its
attractive features. The programme
was given in full yesterday, and we
feel that it would not be either wise
or just to particulariZe, since all did
well. The closing chorus of $50 or
200 voices was agrand effort and closed
the exercises.
We note one point which seems to
be rather unusual in so crowded
gathering, and that is the absolute
quiet and sympathetic attention OF
the vast audience. Every inch of
space on floor and galleries was occu-
pied, many standing, and yet so at
tentive and interested were all, that
the softest passage OF voice or instru-
ment could be easily and distinctly
heard or enjoyed.

Chicago Tribune (Rep.)


1t is clear that the consumers OF
wooden goods, of whom there are
over 10000, 900 in the United States,
will not be the beneficiaries of the
wool and woolens schedule of the
Tariff bill reported by the Finance
Committee of the Senate. They will
have to pay yearly on the average
So apiece more for their wooden
clothing than they do now, and it
will be of inferior quality. The in
creased cost per capita will amount
to less in the warmer South, and
more in the colder North; hut it will
be for the whole country $21O,OOO,-
900 yearly as long as the obnoxious
schedule remains in force. Judging
by the fate of the equally obnoxious
schedule OF 1890, it will not last IN ore
than four years.
