DEATH OF A GOOD MAN.
Mr. VIM. III. Johnson. Member of the
Bar Died in Tarboro.

news has been received OF the death
of Mr.. VIM. Ill. Johnson, the oldest mem
Der of the Tarboro bar The Southerner
pays him this merited tribute:
This morning VIM. III. Johnson died
at his residence in this place. He was
born in this place Dec. %, 1880. Here
he has passed adj his life except when
at school.
HE was one of the brainiest men
Edgecombe ever produced. In the class
les he doubtless had mo equal. As Il boy
he was in class with DIR. J. II. Baker
and Judge Howard All three were
bright and ambitious. His course
through the university was worthy of
the lad who held his own with these two.
He graduated with first distinction He
then studied law and in his class were
the two Scales, Senators Vance and Mer
rimon and David NJ. Carter. There was
/; nYodesty and timidity about him that
detracted much from him as an advo-
cate, blt so conscientious was he and so
honest that people throughout the c",n-
ty appreciated his sterling worth and he
enjoyed a lucrative practice till he vo;m-
tarily retired. From his practice he ac-
cumulated "a competency, which he leaves
TO il wife and two sons-HenE.y, who is
practicing law here successfully, and
Richard, who is a physician in New
York, but now I'M Europe
.sHe was an honor to his profession
During the forty Years of his practice at
the bar there was no act OF his that was
unworthy of an attorney and gentle
man."

SQUATTER SUIT STARTED.
An Action to Dust Hunter From the
A. & NJ. College Lands.

Suit was yesterday instituted in Wake
Superior court by the North Carolina
College of Agriculture and Mechanic
Arts against Andrew w. Hunter, the
squatter, who has settled on and taken
possessions of certain lands belonging to
the college, near this city.
The complaint sets forth that this
land is of the annual value of 500, and
the possession of it is unjustly withheld
by the defendant. This land was pur-
chased on the Doth day of October, 1886,
from Eugene Grissom and Mary a.
Lawrence for 2,100, for the purpose of
establishing thereon an industrial school,
and the deed to it was duly executed
and probated. This deed, however,
through some oversight, was not record
ed in the register of deeds office, but
the land has until recently been in I'M
disputed possession of the college
Sometime in 1898 it was discovered
that the deed had not been recorded and
two new deeds were prepared and tend
cred for execution to the said Grissom
and Lawrence for the purpose OF evil
dencing the title to the land. Mrs.
Lawrence promptly executed and deliv-
cred her deed, but Grissom declined to
do so. Mrs. Lawrence's deed was duly
recorded
On July %, 1899, the defendant, Hun
ter, had registered in the registers in
Wake county, deed purportlnG
to convey from Grissom one-half inter
est in the land, and since that date
Hunter has held possession of the land,
claiming to be it's owner.
1t is alleged in the complaint that the
said Grissom, now living in Colorado, is
insane. and was so adjudged in Febru-
airy, 1896; being not of sound and dispos-
ing mind, the deed of conveyance made
to Hunter is, Of course, null and void
and conveyed no title; that the defen-
dant had notice Of prior conveyance by
Grissom and Lawrence to the plaintiff,
and by undue influence induced Grissom
to make the recent deed.
Wherefore the plaintiff college asks
that Hunters deed from Grissom be de
clared null, and that it be delivered up
to the court for cancellation, and the
College be. put in possession of the land
With the complaint, Il notice of lis
pendens was filed.
The complaint is signed by j. G. i.
Harris and II. T. & X. l.. Gray, attor-
neys for the plaintiff, and verified by
w. T. Primrose, President of the Board
of Trustees of the College.

FOR A NEW KNITTING MILL.
a Meeting Of Citizens Today to Discuss
Ways and Means.

There will be meeting of citizens this
afternoon in the Mayors office to consil-
er the establishment of knitting mil
here. The starting of such am enterprise
has been much discussed here recently
and now a way is opened for putting
the plan INTO execution. About 12J Of
the leading men of the city have been
invited to attend this meeting.
The price of KNIT goods has recently
been very materially advanced and there
is no industry in this country that is
working ON such profitable basis as
the knit goods. They are selling Large
bills of goods and their mills are well
employed. Such an enterprise would
also contribute largely to the growth and
prosperity of the city.

ants had brought in fPom the street.

COFFEE TIPS
over TO This Side of the
World.

A pretty story Of the introduction os
coffee into the western hemisphere IS
quite to the point since our new posses
sions have so bountifully produced II in
the past, says the Philadelphia Record.
There was a time when this assisted
emigrant," though 50 nobly self-sup-
porting when il has the opportunity,
was tender slip and likely to perish Of
thirst. In 1714 Lonis XIV. was pre-
sented with single coffee plant for
his botanical garden by an Amsterdam
magistrate. 1t was nourished tenderly
and in time slips from II were sent to
Martinique-no doubt sub-rosa TO the
Dutch-the Dutch having long con-
trolled the cultivation of coffee and
guarded it jealously lest It be eulti-
waited on islands not Under their control.
On the way TO Martinique the botanist
in charge; the ships supply Of water
getting low, shared his own daily al
lowance with the precious plants. Re
spending to his kindness, they were
soon growing nicely in Martinique. In
due time these slips produced their
fragrant white fowers-they grow at
the roots Of the leaves-and these pres
emily changed into berries, each with
its two grains Of coffee. From Mar
Unique the coffee journeyed to Porto
Rico and Cuba.
Now Porto Rico alone annually ex-
ports about S0,0Oo,0 900 worth Of this
highly esteemed bean. The plant grows

SAMOAN GIRLS
Native neIles Pick Their Party
Dresses Nearly Ready Made
from the Trees.

Party gowns for Samoan girls grow
on the tropical trees and almost ready
to wear When native beauty Of
Samoa decides TO go 10 o special enter
tainment she enters the forest to look
for her gala attire. The native lSili,
or kilt, is the only addition to her or
binary costume that the SAMOAN girl
provides for special parties. The ma
terial tor the lSllSi grows on the ii tree.
1t consists Of ribbon Of bark few
inches wide that is stripped from the
tree easily. While damp the bark, which
is very thin, is erinkled SO rs to form
wavy outlines, and the ribbons are col
ored all sorts OF bright hues. The Sa-
moan girl then plaits a waistband from
the same kind Of bark and hangs the
ribbons on it. Handmade flowers Of
the same material are often added also.
When the lSiki Is completed the dusky
belle puts it on over the scanty lava
lava, or walstcloth, and goes 10 the
dance or other entertainment. The
girls thus make their own party
dresses, and some Of them show great
taste and skin in fashioning the odd
garments.
