joyed He presented eloquently the car

roundly applauded at the conclusion of his
most excellent address, which was fol-
lowed by a feast of good things. After
wards, Col. A. C. Davis responded to the
toast: HAS the Junior Order Stimulated
Education in Goldsboro." Mr.. Davis
speech was specially inspiring to the
cause of education as we'll as to the Jul
niors. Among several bright sentences, |
take time to quote but one. Said he.

shop"
f. l.. Edmundson responded to the
toast "The Juniors Estimate of the
Bible" Rev. J. j. Barker. to Are Secret
Orders Antagonstic or Helpful to the
church," This was an able presentation
of the idea that such orders were help
full. H. b. Parker, Jr., spoke to the
theme, 1.-THE Juniors idea; Capt Peter

remarks. 1t is the general remark, the

in a measure did. but the service was ex-
ceedingly poor

The Fremont baseball team are in town
today, warm numbers, freely speaking
their views. Manager Hare says his team
were to have played the Newbern boys
at Newbern today. They were tele-
graphed yesterday that their transporta-

arose early this morning and boarded the
cars for Newbern only to find no trans
portation awaiting them. The boys have
said number of things that don't sound
like Sunday School talk. Indeed they do
have grievance, but surely the Newborn
boys did not intend to so disappoint them.
