Friends of the above named gentle

was q man of chivalrous nature and
generous impulses. a brave soldier
and true friend, upright and honor
able in all things. No man ever
cherished 3 more answering loyalty
to THE Lost Cause" no man who
ever wore the gray ever bore himself
more gallantly on the field of battle;
no man was ever more modest than
w. A. Weddin. He was a member OF
the celebrated Manly battery of Raj
eigh, in which he served as first lieu
tenant, and many of his old comrades
bear willing testimony to his bravery
and fidelity as soldier as we'll as to
his character and worth as a man.
The body was taken to Raleigh and
buried Sunday afternoon.
The Raleigh Post of Tuesday con-
tanned the following editorial refer
encs to MIR. Weddin:
"On Sunday afternoon the last sad
rites of affection and comradeship
were performed over the remains Of
as true a soldier and sincere friend
as this State has produced, when all
that was mortal of the late Mr.. W. A.
Weddin was placed beside those of his
former comrades in beautiful Oak
wood. Gus Weddin. as he was
Familiarity known, was a member of
Manly's Battery, and his associates
in that splendid organization have
often spoken OF his ever faithful, de-
voted and efficient performances Of
duty at all times and under all cir
cumstances. We knew him we'll in
our mountain metropolis for years,
and learned to esteem his faithful
friendship and modest worth. Peace
to his ashes

Will Leave Henderson.

There is universal regret that Mr..
Andrew Buford and family are to
leave Henderson. Mr. BufOrd has
for several years been agent of the
Southern Railway Company at this
place, and no more popular official
has ever served any corporation in
any capacity. He goes to Salisbury
to take a similar position with the
same Company, the change being in
the nature of a promotion. No man
deserves more of the good things OF
this life or recognition at the hands
of his Company for duty faithfully
performed, and appreciation OF this
fact is the only thing that reconciles
his friends to his leaving Henderson.
Mr.. Buford is very popular among
our people and his agreeable person
atty has won for the Southern Rail
wav here many steadfast patrons.
Nor is:.there less regret at the going
away of Mrs BufOrd. She is a most
excellent woman, of charming per-
sonality and superior worth, whose
removal will be q distinct loss to the
social circles of Henderson and to her
church
Mr.. Buford left last Thursday to
enter upon the discharge of the duties
in his new position His family will
Join him later. His successor has
not vet been named, but for the
present Mr.. W. W. Morris. assistant
agent. is acting in his place. Mr..

WASHINGTON, D. c., December TO-
The action Of Senator Nelson to-day in
Withdrawing the amendment to the omni-
bus statehood bill was. he states, for the
purpose of making some amendments to
the substitute. which We're made neces-
sary because it was hastily drafted It
is possible that the name Jefferson viii!
be substituted for the name Oklahoma.
In accordance with an amendment offered
to-day by Senator Bacon. The with.
drawal Of the substitute prevents test
vote at present. but one will occur as
soon as it is again presented. according
to the notice given by Mr. Quay.
The delay Of this test vote will afford
an opportunity for further canvassing
among the Republicans who are favoring
the omnibus bill. while vote would have
committed them on ora side or the other.
which vas not considered desirable in
view Of the probable majority now in
favor Of the omnibus bill.
