In his sermon the Rev. Miles said in
part:
I'VE are living in two worlds-one
coursed by rivers. leveled in plains,
beautifully adorned in shrubs and
flowers. We touch it and our eyes are
charmed with its beauty We are
Iregaled with its progress; we are en-
tranced with its melodious song.
THE other world, no human eye
hath seen. and its infinite harmonies
no mortal ear has heard If you do
any thing, DO it right Wrong viii

right triumphs even in midst Of seem

victory comes man should be found
to be true. noble and pure.

that Is clean and pure. Have a firm
purpose to do and to be something in
spite Of seeming difficulties The

In Behalf OF Mr.. Rose.

In referring last week to Mr.. W. W.
Rowland, town treasurer, and giving.
him credit to which his administra-
ton OF the duties of his office en-
title him, some comment was made
which would seem to call forth still
furthc: reference to tie matter. A
friend of Mr.. George A. Rose, who
was treasurer before Mr. Rowland,
feels that an injustice was done that
gentleman, unintentional it is con-
ceded, in the comment made by way
of justifying the position of the GOLD
LEAF in publishing the editorial of
the week before, which called forth
last weeks article. An intimatiOn
that such construction might be put
upon our remarks was only neces-
sary for any such purpose to be dis
claimed.
In behalf of Mr.. Rose the state
ment is made that he too made out
an exhibit of the towns finances
the taxes collected and the purposes
for which the money was expended,
etc.,-and the same was posted at
the Mayors office as required by law,
in July, 1901. Just before the time
of making out the exhibit in January
following, Mr.. Roses health having
given way i'll the meantime, he went
to Baltimore and entered a hospital
for treatment. Mr. J. L. Currin was
acting treasurer, pending the return
of Mr.. Rose While no exhibit was
made, because of his sickness and
detention from duty, the treasurer's
books were gone over by the finance
committee and upon the election of
Mr.. Rowland everything was turned
over to him in acOrrect and satisfac-
tory manner. And we have it author
itatively that the town is in better
condition financially than it has been
in years, if not in it's whole history.
It's Indebtedness is smaller, it's re-
sources greater and it has more
money in the treasury.

Up-to-date Grocery Establishment.

Keeping fully breast with the times
Robert B. Powell, fancy grocer, is
constantly making some innovation
in his store Or adding something to
his stock or equipment for the better
conduct OF his business and more sat
isfactOry service of his large and
growing trade. The latest is a NAM
moth refrigerator a description of
which appears in his advertisement
to be found elsewhere. With the aid
of this he will be enabled to handle
large variety of articles out of sea-
son as well as in season. That is to
say such goods as will not keep fresh
and pure i'll warm weather without
cold storage, can now be carried in
stock in summer time Just as they
are in winter The advantage of this
is apparent to every person who has
to eat.
Mr.. Powell conducts a strictly up
to-date grocery establishment and
caters to the wants of his patrons ia
everything in his line. His goods are
always fresh and reliable, standard
in quality and reasonable in price.
Fifty-two times year he makes a
special price Oh something. This
week it is the different brands of
Chase & Sanborn's famous coffees.
See advertisement for prices quoted,
and then 90 and take advantage of
the bargains offered.

RACE OF HOMIkG PIGEONS.
Four Hundred Birds Released at Kit
treII Make the Flight 200 lilies to
WASHINGTON CITY.

Four hundred homing pigeons be-
longing to the Washington branch
of the Homing Pigeon Association
were released few days ago in Kit
trell, and made the race home 200
miles in an average time of about Z
hours. The birds were liberated by
Master Ira T. Hunt, Jr., the Swear
old son of Mr.. Ira T. Hunt. The
Washington Post says:
The fight was a great success, as far
as the percentage of birds making the
fight was concerned, but the speed was
not great owing to the northeast wind
directly against the birds. The pigeons
were liberated at Z O'Clock yesterday
morning by Mr.. Ira Hunt, Jr., at Kit
trell, n. G., and the average time of flight
was about seven hours. The first bird
came in at 1:O2 in the afternoon
The records of the birds from the
different lofts ranged from S7S to
979 yards flown per minute.
a 3OO-mile flight will be made next
Sunday and later in the season the
birds will be flown as far as 600 and
900 miles.

Returns to Old Love.

Mr.. Henry Macy is going to return
to his old love, the railroad business.
Some months ago he resigned the
Seaboard Air Line agency at this
place to take IL position in the say
ings and insurance department of
the Citizens Bank. He has filled the
place well and there is regret that he
is to leave just as there was at his
stepping down and out from the rail
road Office after a service of eighteen
years. Ever since he gave up the
agency here the Seaboard people
have been trying to get Mr.. Macy
back. They recognize in him a ca
pable and valuable man and they
"need him in their business. Yield
ing to a fattering offer he has ac-
cepted the office of freight agent at
Richmond and will enter upon his
duties on the 10th.
There is general regret that we are
to lose Mr.. Macy as a citizen and
business man of Henderson. No
more universally popular man has
lived among us. We shall all miss
him but missing him it is some sat
isfaction to know that our loss will
be his gain.

SEWERAGE QUESTION DISCUSSED.
Advocates and Opponents in Mass
Meeting AsSembIed-Both Sides
Have Hearing and the PROPOSED
Measure Is Better Understood,

Measure Is Better Understood.
In Difference to the wishes of many
persons public meeting was held in
Cooper Opera House Monday night
to consider the proposed bond issue
for sewerage and street improve.
ments. There was a fairly represen.
tative crowd both in numbers and
character of citizenship and the mat
ter was freely discussed by those who
favor and those who oppose the meas.
ure. The discussions were interest.
ing and spicy to a degree and every.
body talked who wanted to. several
at the same time frequently.
The act authorizing the election
was read by Mr.. T. NJ. Pittman, town
attorney, and the various features
OF the bill were carefully gone over
and considered separately. Numer-
Gus questions were asked and a good
many points that had not been un-
derstood before were cleared up in
the minds OF many of those who had
felt Indifferent about the matter or
opposed it altogether. A number OF
speeches were made setting forth the
great Importance OF sewerage and
urging favorable action at this time.
Letters were read from Wilson,
Rocky Mount and Tarboro giving
the cost of putting in sewerage for
those towns. Tarboro has 2h miles
OF mains built at a total cost OF
SS, 700. Wilson's sewer system COW
ers X miles at an average depth of
Z to 8 feet and cost $1,000. Rocky
Mount built little over 5miles at a
cost of not quite $4,000. Since
these figures were obtained investi-
CATION into the cost of sewer con-
struction nearer home where the soil
formation and conditions are more
nearly like those of Henderson, has
been made. Sewerage in Durham
cost $4,000 a mile. In Raleigh it
cost $4,000. 1t was very expensive
in both these places and there were a
good many reasons why it should
have been so.
There are 6k miles of water mains
in Henderson. 1t is estimared that
about s miles of sewer pipes will be
required for the town and the pipes
outside, say about 2 miles, 10 in all.
Take the cost per mile in Raleigh,
S3, 900, the greatest of the five towns
above mentioned, and Henderson's
10 miles of sewerage will cost $780,
600. But a conservative estimate
places it considerably below that fig
ure. Assuming that it will cost $50
900, though, could the town spend
that sum to better advantage? That
would leave a balance of SO, 900 for
street improvements, and no one will
say we do not need this, and need it
badly.
After the matter had been freely
discussed Monday night a rising vote
was taken on the adoption of the bill
and the sentiment of those present
was overwhelmingly in favor of it.
The meeting was full of good humor
and the friends of the measure went
away feeling much encouraged over
the result while many who were I'M
decided and hesitating about taking
a stand one way Or the other are
now strong advocates of the bond
issue. And from now until the day
OF the election the number of those
who oppose it will become smaller
and smaller. Fact is the town can
not afford to suffer such a setback as
the defeat of this measure would
give it.

Leo Amputated.

AS intimated in these columns
would very likely have to be done, an
operation was performed on Mr..
John A. Fleming last week and his
left leg was amputated at the knee.
Drs. Pendleton, Tucker and Harris
performed the operation. No chic
roform or ether was administered
cocaine being injected in the flesh
where the knife was to be used to
deaden the sensation of pain. The
patient stood the operation very
we'll and has since been doing as
nicely as could be expected all things
considered. While it will be painful
news to the friends of this good man
to learn that he has been thus af-
ficted it is gratifying to know that
he stood the orderl we'll and the indi-
cations are that his life will be pre-
served and his usefulness prolonged
thereby. The State contains no bet
ter man and Vance county no more
honored and useful citizen than j ohm
A. Fleming, and the GOLD LEAF
unites with all who know him in the
sincere wish that he may soon be re-
stored to health again and his life be
spared many more years to his fam
ily and friends.
