The remains of Miss Lueva
Lancaster, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. W. B. Lancaster, of the
Greenleaf neighborhood, this
county, but who recently moved
to Spartansburg, S. c., arrived
here Friday afternoon and
were taken out to the old home
stead for interment In the family
burying ground on the Bryant
Pate place. Miss Lancaster was
27 years of age and was greatly

Some days ago we made note
of the departure Of Mr.. Jas. E.
Collins. a Goldsboro boy and a
former ARGUS typo, for Manila.

mercial Advertiser. of that date,
published IN Honolulu. Evidently
Jim struck for the printing Of

always do. The paper con-
tains the following notice:

The Farmers Warehouse, op-
posite The ARGUS office, has re-
Gently been remodeled on the in
terror and more floor room given
it, and it is now one Of the most
conyiently arranged In the State.
It has secured Mr.. J. J. Meador,
of Madison, as it's auctioneer this
season, and being a thorough all
round tobacco man, he knows
just what tobacco is from the
lowest TO the highest grade, and
being exclusively associated with
The Farmers warehouse and alive
to it's success, he will see to it
that every pile of tobacco
brings its full worth before
he knocks it off to the bidder.
This is the warehouse with which
Mr.. Ghas. E. Haskell is associat-
ed. He has developed into quite
an aggressive tobaceo-man, and
to his public spirit and untiring
activity more than perhaps to
any other man in the city is
Goldsboro indebted for the fact
that to-day she has three of the
largest sales warehouses in the
State. He never loses an oppor-
tunity and always seeks occasion
to give the Goldsboro market a
push. He is associated with Mr..
John Garter, who is we'll known
TO the farmers of this section and
is deservedIy popular with all.
