GOOD ROADS BETWEEN SOUTH
ERIN PINES, ABERDEEN AND
PINEBLUFF.

The Aberdeen Telegram haN
made a suggestion in its last issue
that every one ought TO approve
the building of good road
between Southern Pines. Aberdeen
and Pinebluf, and we arr confident
the people of Southern Pines will
come forward in a substantial way
and lend a helping hand. The
plan to put the whole matter in
the hands of a committee of three,
composed Of the Mayors of
Aberdeen, Southern Pines and
Pinebluff, is the proper thing 10
do. They are the chosen repre-,
sentative of each place, selected
by the people, and no better way
of Sc Letting a committee can be
suggested. The good ought to Ie
commenced at once with four sets
of men. One leading from South
ern Pines to Aberdeen; tw" from
Aberdet n, working one towards
Pinebluff and the other towards
Southern Pines and one force
working from Pinebluff towards
Aberdeen. In this way tho work
can be quickly done, and tie
people get the advantage OF a good
road without delay. No neel Of
delay. Commence the work at
once. Go over the line quickly,
and then work over the sane
ground putting such improvements
as is possible on the worste
places.

made a lieutenant in 1862 and first saw
sea service on the ironcad PatapscO.
He was an executive officer when she
was sunk by a torpedo in Charleston
harbor in 1865.
In that emergency he showed the
coolncss that afterward distinguished
him. His feet caught in the boarding
net as the ship sank. He waited until
the first rush of water was over, then
disentangled himself and hOatcd to the
surface.
He served on the European station
md at the Naval academy after that
and finally became superintendent at
Annapolis in 1886. He then had low
er rank than an! Of his predecessors in
charge of the academy.
He next became chief of ordnance as
captain and was considered the
greatest ordnance expert in the navy.
He was at the head Of the court that
investigated the blowing up Of the
Maine in Havana harbor and again
demonstrated his cooness.
President Mckinley chose him as
commander of the fleet, in Cuban wa
ters at the breaking out of the Spanish
war. He was moved to that position
over the heads Of many men Of higher
rank, for he was only Il captain.
1t was believed the controversy that
was wagcd so tiercely after the war as
to who was entitled to the credit Of
the Santiago victory had much to do
with the failure of his health.
He was retired as a rear admiral in
February last.
Twice Admiral Sampson was mar
ried. BY his first matrimonial venture
he had four daughters, Mrs. Roy c.
Smith, wife of Lieutenant Smith of
the United States navy: Mrs. Jackson,
wife of Ensign X. II. Jackson; Mrs.
Cluvcrius, wife of Walter G. Cluverius,
and Miss Olive Sampson.
His second wife was Miss Burling
of Cannndaigua. and by the marriage
he had two sons, Ralph. fourteen, and
Harold, twelve years old.
