Protested Capt. wilson's score.

1hpts " AAEOA s7NOACs
A protest against decision allowed
Capt. F. C. Wilson of the team from
Battery B of the Guards was made
at the 200 yards range. This was on
his first shot. He called 1t a bulls
eye, but three was marked. An ex-
animation showed that the shell was
defective. An appeal to the executive
officer for the day, Col. Jordan F.
Brooks, was made, and Capt. Brooks
allowed another shot, whereupon Capt.
Wilson made a bullseye. The protest
followed. 1t CHANGED, however, that
the last shot Capt. Wilson made was
a three, so that the score would have
been the same whether or not the first
shot was counted.
AS Capt. w. B. Stephens, executive
officer, participated in one of the
matches, he retired temporarily from
that position, inducing Col. Brooks to
take it. This arrangement will con-
tinue until the matches in which Capt
Stephens takes part are terminated.

peculiar case is presented to the Of

guilty of every wrong doing and no stat

Mr.. Munroe Lee, who came to Kinston

RE Whaley. From the manner of his
courtship, the aunt of the young lady,
Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson, mistrusted
Lee, and wrote to the chief of police at

Kinston, and made inquiry. The letter
was answered, but was not called for
at the office here and was returned to
Dunn. The chief Of police then wrote TO
Chief Rouse at Kinston, inclosing the
letter he had written to Mrs. Thompson,
which stated that Lee had a wife and
children living at Dunn. Fortunately the
young lady had not married Lee. Lee
wrote some very fine love letters to the
young lady. He went to see her Sunday,
unaware that he had been found out. He
didn't stay long. They were on the eve
Of running away to be married, but this
is all broken up now, and the young lady
says she will send the love letters writ
ten by Lee to his wife. He is a bad, bad
man and there ought to be some law I'M
der which he could be gotten for his evil
endeavors.

Ailing Women in Springtime
Need the Strengthening and
Nourishing Virtues of
Paine's Celery
Compound
A Case Where the Great Medicine Be-
slowed Vigor and Health After
Months of Weakness and
Suffering,

Observing and intelligent women who
have used Paine's Celery Compound have
noted well the fact that as a spring medi-
cine it quickly regulates the bowels,
clears the whites of the eyes of that com
mon jaundiced look and gives a bloom of
health to the face that it never possessed
before Another important proof of the
invigorating power of Paine's Celery
Compound is it's effect on the pulse,
which becomes full, firm and regular
Weak exhausted, nervous, irritable and
worried women find that Paine's Celery
Compound counteracts the exhausting
strain of work and worry by it's strong
inducement to the delicate tissues to take
more nourishment; it induces the nerves
and brain to feed themselves more liber-
ally, and it enriches the blood and regu
lateS the flow.
Mrs Nellie Morse Taylor, Scion, o.,
sends the following testimonial letter for
the benefit of weak and run down women;
"Some years ago l had a severe attack
of the grippe which left my head and
spine in a very bad shape. Sometimes
thought ] should lose my mind l was so
nervous. l could not sleep more than
two hours a night. After year with the
doctor, l had run down so l weighed only

RUFUS KING POLK.

The news of the death in Philadelphia
Polk, of the Seventeenth Pennsylvania
District, will be received with deep regret
in this State. Though a Tennesseean by
birth, Mr.. Polk was of North Carolina
parentage and ancestry and has many re-
latives in this State. He was the son of
Gen. I.ucius E. Polk, of the Confederate
army. and lineally descended from Coils.
Thomas and William Polk, of Revolution
airy fame. In the Spanish American war
Mr.. Polk himself was an officer of volun-
teers, and represented in the North Caro-
lima State Society of the Cincinnati Lieut..
Thomas Polk, who was killed at the bat
tie of Eutaw Springs in 1881.
Mr. Polk was born in August, 1866, and
hence was not quite thirty-six years of
age at the time of his death, yet had
lived long enough to add honors to the
distinguished name he bore. After
graduating from Lehigh as "a mining en-
gineer, he became interested in the iron
industry of Pennsylvania, being a MEM
Der of the manufacturing firm of Howe &
Polk. In 1900 he was chosen a delegate
from Pennsylvania to the National DEM
ocratic Convention at Kansas City, and
later was elected to the Fifty-sixth Con-
gress as a Democrat This latter post he
held up to the time of his death.
That he should be called from life's
work so early is especially sad and North
Carolina joins Pennsylvania and Tennes-
see in mourning, his loss.

AN UNJUST INCREASE.
Asheville Citizen.

That the strictly North Carolina COM
panies can afford to do business at the
old rates and yet make good profits shows
that there is no excuse for an advance
of rates in this State. but that outside
companies are taxing US to pay their
losses elsewhere. During the past year
there have been great CONGREGATIONS at
New York, Patterson, Waterbury, Nor
folk. St. Louis and other places, entailing
loss of millions upon millions. AS a
result, many companies have had to re-
tire from business within the past six
months But no such disasters have oc-
curred\ in North Carolina. Risks here
have neen well protected, the law in re-
gard to incendiarism has been strictly
enforced and in a number of the cities
the fire departments have been strength
ened and the apparatus for fighting a con-
Migration improved. uring the years
1899. 1900 and 1901 the fire record of
North Carolina has been exceptional and
the insurance business in North Carolina
has been unusually profitable to the in
surance companies.
Under these conditions it is most un-
just to tax property owners with an in
creased rate and we hope the Green's
boro companies will be sustained in their
fight against such action by a liberal in :
crease of their business.

ANOTHER LESSON IN PARD0NS
AND CRIME.

There are two sides to all questions.
Ten days ago application was made to
the Governor to commute the sentence of
John H. Rose, convicted of murder in Will
hundred people accompanied the applica-
ton and it was claimed that since the
trial it had been ascertained that Roses
rrovocation that justified or excused the
crime. The Governor looked into the mat
Ter carefully and decided that Rose was
not entitled to executive clemency, and
he was hung.
Those who opposed executive clemency
said: "Crime has increased more rapidly
in Wilson than in any county in Eastern
North Carolina and it is largely due to
the fact that the notorious criminals
have escaped justice. The spectacle OF o
legal execution of murderer will make
men afraid to commit it, will cause all
to hold life dearer, and will put an end
TO crime in the county" Within ten days
after the execution of Rose, almost with
in sight of the gallows, two murders nave
been committed in Wilson county.
Does hanging decrease the crime OF
murder? Our Wilson correspondent seems
to think not A private letter from Will
son, dated March 3rd, contained this view:
1--WE had a hanging and within the week
a homicide. The conditions which pro-
duce crime are but little affected by pun
ishment''

BORN OF NECESSITY.

Charlotte News.
The action of the Southern Hosiery
Yarn Spinners Association yesterday in
raising the price of yarns to conform
more with the recent rise in cotton is
one born of necessity. The present price
of cotton threatened injury to the South
ern mills, and injury to the mills meant
equal, if not greater, injury to the en-
ployes. This movement on the part of the
cotton mill men 70 endeavor to bring
yarns up instead of closing down their
enterprises and awaiting, in idleness, a
drop in cotton, is commendable. 1t is to
be hoped that the coming meeting in At
lanta will not be Swallowed by any action
toward the curtailment of present pro-
duction.

BISHOP POTTER ON THE NEGRO.

At a meeting held recently in Carnegie
Hall, in New York, in the interest of
the Hampton and Tuskegee Institutes,
Bishop Potter, of New York, perhaps the
most prominent divine in the United
States, declared that the main thing
which divides the negro from the white
man is lack of culture. He also empha-
sized the fact that after President Roose-
welt had entertained Booker Washington
at dinner, he telegraphed the President
as follows: 81 congratulate you upon
your guest. He was a guest at my table
last winter, and | never entertained a
worthier one"
Some how or other" continued the
Bishop, my message became public, and
since that time have received numerous
letters from the people. South of the
Mason and Dixon line, entreating me not
to show myself in their neighborhood, as
their citizens had no desire to entertain
me-"
This utterance by Bishop Potter will
be read with great amazement and sor-
row by all intelligent people in the South.
Such expressions show that he is entire
ly ignorant of the characteristics of the
negro race. We cannot believe that he
is malicious towards the South or that
he wishes white people of the Anglo
Saxon race in the South a future less
noble, honorable and useful than he
wishes the people of this race in the
North and the West. We must presume,
therefore that his utterances are in
spired by sympathy and zeal for the ne
gro.
If the views expressed by Bishop Potter
are to be adopted by leaders of public
sentiment in the North, their usefulness
in helping the Southern negro will be at
an end. The Roosevelt Booker Washing
ton dinner has already done more to
weaken the influence of Booker Washing
ton in the South and retard his work
than all other causes combined that have
heretofore opposed him.
There is no safety for the South ex-
eept in the separation OF the races
Southern statesmen know this and recog-
nize it in seeking to maintain it's lofty
ideals of individual character, intelli-
gence and physical vigor, which have
so distinguished the people of the South
ern States for three centuries. The I'M
lettered white man understands it and
manifests it, even violently in his preju-
dice, against the negro. Even the ne
gro understands it, and if let alone he
will adapt himself to this great necessity
and it is best that he do so.
We have bishops in the Southern States
as honest, as Godfearing, as humane,
as true-loving as Bishop Potter. They
negroes and have lived among negroes.
He should advise with them before ex-
pressing such radical views in his ig-
inorance and in his unwise zeal. He
and men like him are today the worst
enemies of the negro race. If their num-
Der should increase and their power ex-
tend-if in short their views should pre-
vail, it would be impossible for the ne
gro to live in the South his fate would
be deportation or. determination.
The South cannot be helped either with
advice or with money or with legislation
by men who hold these views.
