Soaring the Negroes

Travelling statesmen who go out into the
rural districts are getting a big lot of
fun out of the war scare. They some
times pose as drafting agents for the
government, saying they have been dep
utized to enlist several colored regi-
ments. They frequently go to mill plants
where many employees are at work, and
with a solemn visage proceed to take
down the names and descriptions of all
present. The act generally brings con-
sternation and emphatic statements that
they will have to be caught first. This
practice has caused mill hands in sew
eral sections of Southampton county to
be very suspicious of strangers. A Suf-
folk business man was over there a few
days ago and was waited on by a colored
committee, which had been appointed to
find out whether he was looking for any
more soldiers from their section.-Suf
folk correspondence Norfolk Virginian.

Rev Mr. Oliver Arrives Home

The Rev. W. B.. Oliver, pastor of the
First Baptist church, returned home
last evening by the Atlantic Coast Line
after an absence from the city since Feb
ruary 2Sth. During his absence he spent
a while at his farm with Mrs. Oliver and
the children, near brakes Branch Char
lotte county, Va. Most of his time, how
ever was spent in visiting Dayton, KY,
Newport, KY, C~ovington, KY, Cincin-
natl, Ohio, and Hamilton, Ohio. He
preached on two Sundays at the Baptist
church at Dayton. He says he enjoyed
his trip immensely, and when asked
whether he had accepted a call elsewhere
he replied that his future movements
were undecided as yet.
War with Spain, he tells us, is the
principal topic every where, as we'll as in
Wilmington, as he found Upon his re-
turn home.

In Yesterdays issue of The Messenger
appeared a synopsis of the closing exer-
cises of the public school at Greenville
Sound, which took place Friday night,
out below we give a more detailed ac-
count.
There was such a large crowd in at
tendance that many people could not get
into the building. Messrs. Geo. r. Hew-
lett, Jim Donneily, Tony Hergenrother,
o Batson, Moses Penny, w. D. HUM,
Stuart Heinsberger, Ed. H~einsberger.
Billy Litgen and ]. T. Burke went down
On their wheels and returned yesterday
morning at 1 o'clock.
The children of the school presented
a creditable and interesting programme
consisting Of singing, recitations, dia-
logues, speeches., etc, and during the
evening there was some delightful music
by Messrs. Hergenrother, Donnelly, Bat
son and Moses Penny, who carried along
their victims, guitars and mandolins. Mr..
George IT. Hewlett, Wilmington's inimit-
able negro carrfcturist, made a big hit
with his sketches. He appeared in the
role OF Uncle sam" at first. and then
..igger." His songs and funny business
were highly appreciated, but his para
phrase song, "There'l be a hot time i'll
part which indicates that what Uncle
Sam will do to Spain will be a plenty.
The pupils of the school made a fine
showing in the parts they took, and they
wele enthusiastically ~applauded.
Mr.: Jerry Hewlett one of the patrons
of the school,, tells US that the exhibition
was the finest ever given at Greenville
and that the school has been the best
and most successful the neighborhood
ever had. He and others speak in the
highest terms of praise of the ability and
qualification of Mr.. J. p. Herring, the
teacher of the school. The patrons Of
the school are highly pleased with him,
and they promise that II he will teach
their school next session they will sup
plement his pay from the school author
tiles by 500 per month to be paid by the
patrons themselves.
Mr.. Herring resides in Sampson coun-
ty, and he came up yesterday and went
home. The school closes till next fall.
Mr.. Herring formerly taught at Mason
boro, as also did his accomplished sister,
Miss Bessie Herring.

Fayetteville, N. c., March 26.
This morning a negro Woman walk
ing along the ridge of a gulley in the
southwestern part of the old arsenal
grounds ON Haymount, came upon a
fresh mound of earth near the path,
which subsequent investigation proved
to the grave of a newborn white male
Infant. The authorities are e~ndeavor-
ing to find some clue to the matter
whether it be a case of infantcide, the
~parentage, etc.
The sanctificatiOnists closed their
meetings in the armory last Thursday
night. There were several ministers
from abroad among the exhorters, w.
P. Fife, the well-knOWn drummer
evangelist" preaching Wednesday
morning.
Mr.. and Mrs. D'LagneI Haigh are
visiting their parents, DR.. and Mrs. T.
D. Haigh, on Haymount. They are
very popular here, always meeting a
host of friends. Mr.. John r. To1ar,
formerly a Fayetteville lad, who has
acquired wealth in New York city, Wis
tied his old home last week.
