HOW LLIEUT. SHIP DIED.

The Rutherfordton Journal of last
week published extracts from letters
written by comrades Of Lieut.. VIM.
f. Shipp telling how he was killed
in the battle of San Juan, Cuba, as
he gallantly led the charge up the
hill into the very hell OF shot and
shell on that fatal day. In COM
menting on the CONSPICUOUS and heroic
part borne by Lieut.. Ship in the
battle which cost him his life, the
Journol says:
1t is sublime courage like this that
ms spires the Americans soldier and
sailor and makes America invincible
on land and sea.
This short-lived war has brought
before the world many heroes, and
among them all not one did Drawer
deed or showed more herOism than
did the lamented Shipp. His spotless
| life. his grand courage and his
| glorious death are a priceless heritage
| to those loved ones he left behind
and inspiration to his countrymen.
What honor is there within The
gift of North Carolina too great t'
bestow upon his memory? Wha
| tribute is there that Carolinians cal
pay to his worth that his herOisn
has not richly earned? What wreati
is there that Americans can weave tt
lay upon his brow that his gallantr.
in battle, his devotion to duty AM
his character as the highest type o
the American soldier and the South
ern gentleman do not deserve?

A MONUMENT TO LIEUT.. SHlPP

The only North Carolina soldier
killed in the recent war was Lieu
tenant William f. Shipp, of the Tenth
Cavalry.
Worth Bagley, of the Navy, died
heroically, and monument is to be
erected to his memory. 1t is we'll SO.
North Carolina has too few monu-
ments. In all wars she furnishes
the fighters, while other States
furnish the generals.
1t is becoming that memorial be
erected to Worth Bagley, of the
Navy. 1t is equally proper that one
be erected to William Shipp, of the
Army-two Carolinians who laid
down their lives at their country's
call.
Young Shipp was of those who,
foremost fighting, fell. Beautiful to
look at; game as became a soldier; a
gentleman by inheritance and living
up to his history; the husband of a
young and beautiful wife; the father
of two young children-what could
have been more pathetic than his
| death?
| He well deserves a monument, and

done without consulting Judge Hob

office. He returned to the Democratic
party in 1896 and has since been an

Trinity College Notes.

The grading OF the college grounds has
been completed. 1t has wonderfully i'm
proved the appearance of the campus.
The work on the buildings of the Trim
ity Park High School is being rushed
with much rapidity. 1t is one of the most
beautiful structures on the Park and one
of the most complete high school build
ings in the South.
The faculty OF the Trinity Park High
School consists of J. F. Bivins, Head
master; w. X. Boyd. F. S. Aldridge, P.
V. Anderson and D. W. Newsom, assist
ants. The first four mentioned young
men are graduates OF Trinity College,
and all are teachers of experience. Mr..
Bivina was principal of Albemarle Acad-
envy last year; Mr.. Boyd was instructor
in history in Trinity College during the
last session and has taken the Master OF
Arts degree; Mr.. Aldridge has been for
two years one of the principals of Bel
wood Institute; Mr.. Anderson was prin-
cipal of the Wilson Graded Schools at
the time of his election; Mr.. Newsom has
taught in Littleton Female College and
Littleton Academy. This constitutes a
| strong teaching force.
The prospects for a fine opening in
both College and Fitting School are very
bright.

ENSIGN BAOLEY THE PEACE.
MAKER,

We are glad to note that the move
ment to commemorate the sacrifice
of North Carolina's brave young
ensign who was the first to fall in
the present war with Spain, has
taken definite shape in the Worth
Baglev Monument Association OF
Raleigh. N. c., and that contributions
toward the erection of the pile which
is to bear witness to posterity of the
complete reconciliation between the
North and the South have commenced
to pour in from almost every State
in the Union.
Since the last gun OF the great
American conflict was fired at Apo
mattox there have been many agen-
cieS at work in this country seeking
to heal the wounds of sectional strife;
but we hazard nothing to saying that
the death of Ensign Bagley under the
peculiar circumstances which sur
rounded that event has accomplished
more toward making this desired
result possible than aught else
