waylaid and shot and robbed by two
young negros at 2 d. m. to-day near
the bridge at the Falls of Tar River.
Hester was returning home after SELL
ing his tobacco. The negroes who did
the shooting had been seen near the
spot. evidently waiting for their vic
tim. When Mr.. Hester came UP they
pointed their pistols and demanded his
money. He threw his pocketbook con-
tanning $40 to them and begged them
not to shoot. After getting his money
the robbers shot him three times and
left him to die in the road. He was
found by neighbour, who secured med
ical aid. Much feeling has been
aroused and n determined effort to
apprehend the felons is being made.

ANOTHER FEVER VICTIM AT THE
NORMAL

Greensboro, N. c.. Dec. 21.-Miss
Evelyn Bailey. of the State Normal
and Industrial College, died this morn
ing of typhoid fever. She was a sister
of the Miss Bailey who died some
weeks ago of the same disease.She was
from Mocksyille.
The case OF these two young ladies
was especially pathetic. They were so
much devoted to each other that it was
the subject of comment, and the
younger more than once made the re-
mark that If her sister died she would
have nothing to live for. When the
elder sister died the fact was scrupu-
lousy kept from her.
There is only one serious case at the
Normal now-that of Miss Davis--and
hope is entertained for her recovery.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
EIeld Day sports In Prospect.

The boys of the Sophomore class issued
challenge yesterday to the boys of all
other classes in the High school to COM
pete in field day sports. A committee
composed of Tasker and l.. w. knight,
100, Parkess and Wellman, 1900, and Scott
and Frost 1902 were appointed to consider
the challenge and if they accepted to con-
fer with the committee from 1901 regard
ing time, place and events.
There is no doubt but that the challenge
will be accepted and the field day held the
last of next week The events will prob
ably be those of regulation type and may
include ball game. There will be no
time to train for any of the events yet
they will bring out the material in the
school and aid in the organization of a
track team next year. The school has
been successful in base and foot ball and
there seems to be no reason why it should
not have a track team. There is a league
Cup the river" which holds annual meets,
and should Brattleboro be able to get in
next year, an effort will probrbly be made
to procure field and apparatus for the
training of a team.

MEMORIAL SERVICE
Held by the nsp,Ist sunday school.

As the regular Memorial day sermon
was delivered by Rev. Mr. Marble at the
Baptist church, it seemed fitting to the SUI
perintendent of the Baptist Sunday school,
L. w. Hawley, that an appreciative serv-
ice in memory of those of the church and
school who had passed away during the
year should be held. Accordingly brief
note of information was sent to the families
of the departed ones, and the whole time
of the Sunday school session was given up
to this service.
1t was not a long drawn out funeral SER
vice by any means, but cheerful, appro-
pirate memorial. The names of those who
were referred to are Mrs. Almira II. 61UwrT;
Mrs. Andrew j. White, Mrs. Mary f. Cur
rier, Mrs. Lucy c. Blodgett, Mrs. Mary +.
Shattuck, Mrs. Louisa b. Niles, Mrs. w.
II. Rcleau, Mrs. Lou Van A Crowell,
Mrs. C. n. Moran, Miss Susan Bigelow,
o. w. Sherwin, David Ellis and 5. I. r.
Cheney.
After the opening exercises of the school
were concluded, Mr. Hawley introduced
the special services with appropriate words
as follows: "Our hearts have been stirred
this morning with memories of the brave
heroes who gave their lives freely for their
country, but peace hath her heroes as well
as war Today it is specially lifting that
we should bring to mind afresh those loved
and noble souls whom our dear Lord has
called to their eternal mansions during the
twelve months.
sit is not, however, the thought of the
day to surround it with gloom, for all these
cherished ones are with the Father and the
Son and we would better far JOY in theiI
Joy than sit in our own sorrow however
deep it may be- May the dear Holy Spirit
bespoken as the comforter, be present with
solace for every one."
The superintendent then called upon DR.
Holton, who spoke feelingly concerning
Mrs. Niles and Mr.. Cheney. Miss Mabe
Freeman paid beautiful tribute to Mrs
C. B, Crowell, as did Mrs. Mary Smith t
the memory of Mrs. Currier Miss Mar
Horton made appropriate reference to Mrs
Roleau and read from letter received re
Gently from an intimate friend concerning
her last months. j. f. Hall spoke tttinl
words concerning the life of Mrs. Shattuck
likening her to Dorcas of old in helpful
ness to every one.
II remained for Mr., Hawley to speal
with appreciation and discrimination o
the MANY eXcellences and virtues OF IN
others in the long roll, and Mr.. Marble
who had no acquaintance with most G
them and slight acquaintance with ou
few, to close the service in very uplltun
manner. 1t is safe to prophesy that Me
mortal day will have a permanent place l
the calendar of the Baptist church Sunda
school.

Greenfield High school Team Was Easy

What the High school base ball team
expected would be a close game with
Greenfield High school at Greenfield,
Mass, Tuesday, proved to be a veritable
walk-over for the visitors. The Brattle-
boro boys succeeded in securing - runs
during the nine innings, while Greenfield
could make only eight, seven of which
were accounted for by the wild pitching
of Houghton in the fifth and sixth innings.
The Brattleboro team eXcelled in base
running, Cook, though handicapped by a
crushed finger, preventing the Greenfield
players from purloining more than few
bases. Except for three bad innings
Houghton was invincible, while Bowker,
even when he could put the ball over the
plate, was batted at will. Whitman fielded
well, batted strongly and was speedy on
bases. Capt. Tasker also batted well and
accepted eight out Of nine fielding chances.
For the losers Hull and Benjamin played
well in the field and Bowker led in what
little batting was done, securing home
run in the fifth inning by batting the ball
into the tall grass over the right field
fence. The score:
