FLOPEMENT
From One of the Female Colleges of
Raleigh Speculation as to Fate of
Nellie observation-disclosures De-
bate Postponed
Messenger Bureau,

ISdleiSH, november ~.
The entire docket at the present term
Of the supreme court is very light; so
light to make it a subject Of remark.
Sheriff Reid. Of P~asquotank, brought
two convicts to the penitentiary. Speak
ing of the disappearance of Nellie
CropSy, which appears to be creating
quite a sensation, he says opinion is di-
vided as TO whether she went away vol
UNFAIRLY or was taken away in a buggy
or boar by persons employed by James
Wilcox. The sheriff says he does not
believe the latter surmise to be correct,
as Wilcox has not the lneans to get
such WORK done. If the girl went away
voluntarily he thinks she drowned
herself.
F. M. Straughan, for over thirty
years the janitor Of the capitol here,
died this morning, aged 70 years. He
was paralyzed ten days ago. He
served during the civil war in the Fifth
North Carolina regiment. He was
known by every man in the state in
public life.
By the change in the charter of the
Raleigh Water Company, which now
becomes the Wake Water Company, the
stockholders are relieved of liability.
Up to a recent period the plant did not
pay and several assessments were made.
AT one time more than half the stock
vas held by persons in Dayton, Ohio.
but now Raleigh people hold all.
At 10 O'Clock this morning there was
a runaway marriage here. Mr.. Roscoe
Ward, of Greensboro, a merchant, aged
% years, arrived on an early train and
met Miss May Mccain a student in one
OF the colleges in this city. A license
was quickly procured, the young wo-
mans age. being given as IS years,
though she did not appear to be quite
so old. Her parents are dead and she
was the ward of Mr.. M. J. Adams, at
whose house she lived. He was. op-
posed to the match with Ward, as he
desired Miss Mccain to marry another
man. Mr.. Ward and Miss Mccain went
by quiet streets to the house of Rev.
Mr.. Hubbard, pastor of the Baptist
tabernacle, where they were married
This is the third school girl elopement
here this year.
TWO years ago in a runaway acci-
dent in a street here, a young woman
was injured by striking a post of a mar
row trestle on the Southern railway.
She sued the city and got So, 10 dam
ages. The city is turn sued the railway
company for contributary negligence
and RECEIVERS the $4,000.
Owing to the illness of the debators
IN the intercollegiate debate here be-
tween Trinity and Wake Forest colleges
it is postponed from this evening to
Friday evening.

Consider the Stenoerapher

1t is true that in many instances the
stenographer has too much to do
Their is often such a drive late in the
day to get the mail off that there is no
time for care in the preparation Of the
letters, and this is too often traced to
the utter lack of method on the part
OF those who dictate. Many men leave
all their mail until the last thing in the
day, and abou 5 o'clock, when the
s~tenographer is preparing to go home,
the debating begins. and then there is
a hustle and a lot of hard feeling. and
the copying and sealing Of letters is left
TO the office boy. who is just as anxious
to get away, and many mistakes of a
serious nature r made. 1t is a mis-
take for any business man to let a
s~tenographer do nothing all morning
and then expect that dutiful and pa
tient person to do good and clean work
IN a rush thai can just as well be avoid
ed by a little forethought- 1t takes a
mighty bright s~tenographer to do a
lays work the last two hours of the
working day, and the likelihood of a
mistake is increased tenfold.-Musical
Courier.

In Memoriam Of Mr.. Geo.
The following was recently adopted
by the class of 1900, of h North Caro-
lima University. at Chapel Hill:
with deep sorrow to the class of 1900
has come the knowledge Of the death
of their class-mate and friend, George
Chadbourn.
I'm grief we desire to express our
sympathy to those to whom he was
nearer and dearer and who have SUI
fered the more by our common bereaVe-
ment. Our human testimony also we
wish to add to his good report.
I'm broader university life he typ1-
fled the courteous gentleman: among
his classmates. ach held him as a
friend; truth unequivocal, that ever
spoke from him and quiet unobtrusrve
dignity impressed all with the sense OF
a character who trusted himself n
whom others could trust, because his
strength was drawn from the Giver OF
strength. But this part of his record
is written, we know. by hands not OF
this earth. 1t is,
Resolved, Therefore, by the class
of 1900, of the university Of North Caro-
lima: That in the death Of George
Chadbourn, we have lost and do mourn
a warm friend and esteemed classmate,
and the university a faithful alumnus.
