STATE SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
General Secretary Has His Headquarters in

At the recent State Sunday School
Convention held in Kinston it was decided
that man be employed to devote his en-
tire time to the work Prof S. M Smith

Secretary of the Association on salary
At the recent commencement Prof Smith
resigned his position in college and has
since moved to this city. The State Ex-
ecutive Committee, of which Mr. N. b.
Broughton is chairman, has rented the
second floor of the Andrews building
lover Hughes china store), which viii
hereafter be the headquarters of the State
Association. The two front rooms are be-
ing elegantly fitted up. One will be used
as general secretary's office. the other will
be used for executive committee meet
ings, conferences. etc. There will be kept
on hand also a full supply of samples of
the latest and very best Sunday school
helps published in the United States
blackboards. maps, charts, song books and
Sunday school devices of every kind.
There will not be more complete line of
Sunday school supplies anywhere in the
South than can be found at these head
quarters when everything is in place.
Sunday school people of the city will do
well to visit these rooms and see what is
there on exhibit. A large map of the
State is now being put in place which
shows the location and denomination of
every Sunday school in the State. This is
the largest map of North Carolina ever
made and is well worth seeing. This is also
the headquarters of the North Carolina
Sunday School Beacon, the organ of the
State association. of which Prof Smith is
editor. The Sunday school work of the
State seems to have taken on new life since
the Kinston convention. The next con-
vention will meet in Greensboro.

day and today and tcnight. Hargis is a
member Of Democratic State Committee
which recently re-organized the local or
ganization. This action was afterwards
defeated by the county judge here re-
dlstricting the city. Members OF the de-
posed local organization have been very
attentive to DR.. Hargis and have had
several conferences This has caused re-
ports about alliances.
While these conferences were In progress
Joseph Rruner, a detective for the Lex

B. J. Even. who declined to swear out
the warrants. Even is still prisoner IN

OF the house, day or night, as there are
many in Lexington now who have arrived
recently from Jackson. Word also comes
from jackson of an agitation there for
the arrest of prominent people for trial

There is no doubt that the request OF
Judge Osburne and the Harrison county
officials for no troops at Cynchiana. will
be observed unless feudists from Breathitt
county shall come there to make the sit
uation threatening The next regular
term of court at Cynthiana will not be
