tence, it has been the pleasure
and pride of the ARGUS to chron-
icle the success Of our Goldsboro
boys who r scattered far and
wide over this land.
Wonderful Developments have
been made along all lines in
North Carolina. One of the most
remarkable is the growth Of Trim
lily College. A few years age,
DR.. J. G.. Kilgo was elected pres
ident of Trinity College, and un.
der the management Of this able
man Trinity College has taken a
stand second to no other institu-
ton in the Souther States. In fact,
it is said that Trinity is the best
equipped Institution South OF
Baltimore.
Do not say, ST can't eat" Take
Hoods S~arsaparilla and say. II am
hungry all the time, and fnod never
| hurts me-"
Never say to your friends that you
are as tired in the morning as at night
If they happen to be sharp they will
tell you Hoods Sarsaparilla cures that
tired feeling.
Do not say. MY face is full of p1m-
pies You r quite likely to be toli
by some one, "There's no need of that
for Hoods Sarsaparilla cures PIN
ples."
It is improper and unnecessary tt
say. "My health is poor and my BLOOD
is bad" Hoods Sarsapar1lla will give
you good blood, and good health will
! follow as a natural consequence.

An important and inspiring

'tis only necessary to mention the
names of MissSSallie Lee as a
vocalist and Misses Daisy Smith,
Katie Edwards and others who

feature in the musical programme
with sweet accompaniment or
the violin, to say nothing of the
musical accomplishments of thu
Misses Ivey, daughters of the
genial and courteous proprietor
MIR. j. J. Ivey; who by-theeway
is surprising himself in furnish
ing an abundance of the best thu
market affords, and is winning

Davis Was Imprisoned, the Home

After a pleasant run to Nor
folk, Va, the traveller steps off
the train and goes aboard of one
Of the elegant steamers of the
Norfolk and Washington Steams
boat Company.
In a few minutes, n of the
sailors calls out: "All ashore,
that's going ashore and visitors
who have come on board to see
their friends off walk down the
gangway, the ships officer gives
the order, the sailors with a
hearty good will haul in the gang
way, the bell rings, the great ens
gines begin to work. the propeller
churns the water, and the splen~
did ship with majesty and power
and grace, charming to every eye,
glides away from the wharf, and
into the river, with her PROV
pointed to Old Point and the
Chesapeake Bay.
The run down the river from
Norfolk is full of interest. There
are to be 9 all kinds of boats
and ships. Here a fisherman slittle
boat bobbing up and down on the
waves; there a great ship flying
a strange flag from a far-away
foreign country; yonder a mons
ster battleship with the flag of our
country proudly floating from her
masthead,
Hundreds of passengers sit on
the decks Of the elegant steamboat
and gaze with delight on this
shifting panorama of beauty and
instruction.
But the ship is slowing up, and
in a few minutes is at the wharf
at Old Point.
Bustle and activity are on every
hand. Some passengers coming
aboard, others going ashore, scores
of truckmen at break-neck speed
loading trunks and packages, priv
ate soldiers in uniform, and Off
GERS with gold lace and shoulder
straps, from old Fortress Mon

future ones that may arise. The meet
ing was informal In character. and the
somewhat lengthy discussion upon the
various questions in hand brought out
the following items OF information
which may be OF general interest 10 the
public.
The managers Of the two neighbor-
ing plantations OF Waiakea and Wal

supplied with provisions for the pres
snt and had made what arrangements
were necessary for the future.
The merchants said that they would
be prepared in a short time to supply
all demands from this side of the ISL

lion. provided quarantine was declared
in Honolulu that would prevent the de-

Train-Robber Curry shot and Killed
While Attempting to
EIude Arrest.

Kansas City, Mo-, Feb. 2S.-Lon
Curry, one of the train robbers who
engaged in the Wilcox CWyo.) hold
up on the Union Pacific last June,
when something like $4,000 was Sc
cured, was shot and killed by officers
at Dodson. near here, while resisting
arrest.
Curry was visiting at the home of
Miss Lizzie Lee. Pinkertons had
tracked him to Cripple Creek, Kansas
City, and finally TO Dodson. Early in
the morning -four detectives left here
and, arriving at the Lee house. sur
rounded it. Curry, pistol in hand, de-
fled arrest and made a dash to escape.
Before he could raise his revolver,
however. two of The detectives fired
and Curry fell dead.
Curry, with live companions, held up
and robbed n passenger train on the
Union Pacific route at Wilcox, Wyo.,
on July 6 last. Posses that chased the
bandits killed all but Curry. Curry
came here on Thursday last, but real
izing that he was a desperate man, the
detectives hesitated to attack him un'
til sure of their position. He was
half Indian.
