REFORMATORY ASSOCIATION.
They Will Champion No Especial Bill For the
Present

The Reformatory Association are hard
at work. They are endeavoring to edu-
cate the people into an appreciation of
the measure they advocate.
At the meeting recently held in the
treasurer's office it was decided that the
proper sphere of the organization was to
urge upon the people the needs of such
reform without championing any particu-
lar bill
A resolution of appreciation was offered
thanking the Presbyterian Synod and the
Christian Conference for adopting reso-
lutions endorsing the work of the associa-
tion.
1t was announced ha $4,000 leaflets had
been printed, calling attention to the
need of a reformatory. The tracts are
to be distributed among local organiza-
tions of the church and fraternal organi-
cations.

IAN INTERESTING ROMANCE.
A Young Lady weds Her Sick Sweetheart at
Rex Hospital.

The death of Mr.. Ed. Sugg at his home
unusual interest.
The story behind it all is romance,
for it tells of a womans love that was
strong and tireless and true even unto
death. 1t is a tragedy for it tells of an
unavailing fight against DEATH but one
that was fierce and bitter and relentless.
1t is the story of how a woman came to
the bedside of her disease stricken lover,
and having joined her fortunes to his
was true and brave and helpful till the
end came.
Mr.. Sugg was taken sick with typhoid
fever several months ago and was later
brought to the Rex Hospital at this place
for treatment The disease was very vio
lent from the first, and his father, DR.. j.
p. Sugg, of Kittrell, attended him here.
AS time passed it grew more and more
evident that Mr.. Sugg would never recoy-
er
Then came another attendant whose
presence was perhaps even more CRATE
full to the sick man than that of his
father. This attendant was Miss Ada
Hearne, of Farmville, who had promised
10 be his wife.
She came to be with her sweetheart
and to nurse him back to health if possi-
bic, and that there might be no hind
rance to her care for him. they were
married at the hospital on November Sth
home in Kittrell, where he fingered until
Geo. F. Smith, pastor Of Edenton Street
Methodist church. There were present,
besides the father of Mr.. Sugg, DR.. Knox,
the matron and nurses of the hospital.
The ceremony was from the nature Of the
circumstances most impressive.
Shortly after the marriage, Mr.. Sugg
was discharged from the hospital as in
durable. He was taken to his fathers
home in Kittrell, where he fingered until
Monday night, when he died.
The remains were taken to Tarboro,
where the interment took place yesterday.
He was 26 years of age. His father, who
used every means in his power for his re-
covery, and his wife who so tenderly
ministered unto him in his sickness have
the sympathy of many friends over the
State.

In closing he said that woman was
last at the cross and first at the Sc
pulchre. The best character in the
Bible is a woman.
At the close of the service he asked
those who desired to join the church
to come forward and give their names,
and about fifty persons signitied their
intention to connect themselves with
some branch of the church.

Georgia Football Team.

The Atlanta Journal thinks the playing
in the Georgia and A. and NJ. football
game in Raleigh Monday was "the poorest
exhibition of the kind ever seen on a
Southern gridiron. 1t was without ex-
citement or features, merely slow and
stupid Fumbles, errors of judgment and
lack of team play characterized both sides
so that despite the close score no one
was able to scare up any enthusiasm"
The Journal adds that North Caro-

is about the easiest that has happened
