Prof. M. G.. s. Noble, who is in the
city, says the health of the students nj
the University during the past session
has been unusually good. He says the
college authorities have had the water
analysed every month and have drunk
it every day.
Work has commenced on the colored
First Baptist church, corner Morgan
and Wilmington streets. The excavation
for the church is now being made. Ishis
lot was originally owned by the First
Baptist church (white). Then it was
sold to the Catholics, and they sold it to
the colored Baptists.
The street force is now matchmaking
Morgan street, between Blount and
Person streets. This may be alright,
but to one who is not on the inside of
things, it seems that the first streets
paved and macadamized ought to be
those most used. And of these there are
of attention.
At a meeting of the Bobbitt- Wynne
Drug Company held last night, the fol-
lowing officers were elected: j. s.
Wynne, president; DR.. d. e. Everett,
vice-president: Frank Ward, secretary
and treasurer; J. Hal Bobbitt, Cary j.
Hunter, j. w. Harden, Jr., and JAS. Q.
Litcllford, directors. The report of the
officers was highly satisfactory.
It viii be noted by reference to an
other column in this paper that $50 Of the
peoples taxes in the State Treasury
went to pay lawyers to defend j. l..
Burns, the Fusion keeper of the capitol,
for drawing a knife on a negro in the
capitol square one Sunday morning. How
is that for Fusion rule?

1t was expected that Rev. DR.. J. y.
Hufham would lecture last night at ST.
Mary's School on the Avomance of
North Carolina History" but for some
reason the lecturer failed to put in an
appearance and large audience was
disappointed. DIR. Hufham is a great
favorite with Raleigh people and there
was much disappointment at his failure
to get here.
Supt. e. Mex. Goodwin, of the Insti-
tuition for the Deaf at Morganton, is
in the city. He says he now has POI
children in his school and several more
will come in after the holidays. The
health of the pupils in the institution
has been remarkably good, but there is
now one child, boy named Myrick, from
Warrenton, that is expected to die He
went to the school in November sick, and
has never recovered.

There are in this city FIVE handsome
photographs of the late Senator Vance
that are very highly prized. The photo
graphs are by Wharton. They are hand
somely framed and over them is piece
of the glass that was in the coffin lid
over the Great Commoner as he lay IN
state here at the capital 1t viii he re-
membered that when the body was about
to be removed the lid was taken off the
coffin and the glass was accidentally
broken. When it had been replaced with
a new piece Mr.. Wharton kept the brok
en- bits of glass and used them over these

PIONEER CITIZEN DEAD.
Mr.. L. C. Goodrich Passes Away
After Long Illness.
AN ESTEEMED CITIZEN
L. &c. Goodrich for Forty-five Years Resi-
dent OF Denison, Dies on Thursday, Nov. 9
Funeral Tomorrow.

Mr.. LeveretJ G. Goodrich, one of
Denison's pioneer citizens, died at his
home on Thursday, November 8. Mr..
Goodrich had been in feeble health for
nearly two years his invalidism dating
from an attack of the grippe. During
these many months his health has
been bad but it was not until the last
six weeks that he was confined to his
bed.
Mr.. Goodrich was not only pioneer
but he was one of the most active men
in building up the new country into u
tlourishing commonwealth. He was
careful, prudent and industrious, his
farm was a model not only of good
husbandry but of genial hospitality.
1t Was in times of reverses and mis-
fortunes, however that his character
should itself in bold relief. He cheer
fully made the best of ill fortune and
by his fortitude and bravery gave an
example to all. His name has always
been associated with the strictest honor
and integrity
He was unpretensious and modest,
but kindly and charitable in all his
dealings. He was one of the mon who
bore his part in life's battle actively
and we'll, good fortune did not make
him vain nor misfortune sour his kind
illness. Our entire community will
mourn with the faithful wife and
daughters and his memory will live
long IN our hearts.
Leverett G. Goodrich was a son of
Isaac r. Goodrich, one of the first men
to settle in Crawford county. He was
born in Kalamazoo, Mich, April II.
1888, and came to Denison with his
fathers family in 1854. In April 1865
he was married to Miss Rachel thurman
and their third of century of married
life has been one of mutual helpfulness
and trust. Three daughters were born
to them, Mrs. Della DER of LIE Mars,
Iowa, Mrs. Margaret DeWolf OF Toron-
to, Canada, and Miss Jessie, who has
remained at home as a loyal helper and
companion. Soon after his marriage
Mr.. Goodrich began work on As acre
tract of unimproved land in Denison
township, under his careful manage
ment this grew to a farm Of large pro
portions. The latter years Of his life
have been spent in Denison and he dies
having the respect of all. nc
The funeral services will be held to-
morrow afternoon at 2 O'Clock at the
Methodist church, Rev. j. B. Harris
officiating.

GRAND MErEoRlc DISPLAY.
Two Hundred Thousand Miles of Leonids
VIII Be Visible


VIII Be Visible.
Quite beyond the conception of the
human mind is the spectacle that will
be witnessed by nearly the entire civil
lied world on the night of Nov. 10 next,
when two hundred thousand miles of
meteorites traversing the heavens in q
fixed course will rush pass the earth in
their never ending voyage through
space.
Upon coming in contact with the at
mosphere Of the earth and subject to
its gravity, countless millions of these
flying particles will fall and become ig
nited with the rapidity of their flight.
The blue canopy of the heavens will be
lighted by great lines vivid fire cross
ing each other in every direction, while
dazzling globes of multi colored flame
will add variety to the awful splendor
of this rain of fire, which is one of the
grandest spectacles of all history. The
fact that they ignite and dissolve on
contact with the atmosphere here is all
that saves the earth from destruction
by them.
This spectacle, which will be visible
in nearly the whole surface Of the globe,
is the great fall of the meteorites known
as the Leonids, so called from the fact
that the radiant point of the November
meteors is in the constellation Leo. II
OccurS rppularlv avarv thirty .three
years, the last appearance being in No
vember, 1866, when it was viewed il

The last campaign should teach re-.
publicaus some lessons, the first of
which is that there is nothing gained
by doing nothing. In those townships
where republican literature and speak
ers were sent there were large gains,
but in those townships where a still
hunt was relied on nothing was gained.
There is nothing in republication to
be ashamed of and the light of truth
and good government should not be
ibid under a bushel." The field in
which to work is the democratic town.
ships, and the way to work is to try to
prove to our democratic friends that
their own interests and the interests Of
the country will be better served by
voting the republican ticket. We do
not believe there is a place in Crawford
county where speaker of either party
will not receive an attentive and re-
spectful hearing. We do not believe
there is man who is not open to con-
viction. All the clergy in the world
have failed in 1900 years to bring
everyone to Christianity, so republicans
feed not feel disheartened If they fail
to eenylnce ever yone, but the seed will
grow. and multiply and some day we
shall win.
