The State Treasurer in Charlotte.

State Treasurer B. R. Lacy returned
yesterday from Charlotte in which city
he addressed a large audience at the Y.
NJ. Z. "A. on Sunday afternoon. OF his
address, the Charlotte Observer says:
Hon. r. B. Lacy, State Treasurer,
spoke yesterday afternoon at the Y. Nj.
G. A., all the seating room being taken,
by an attentive audience. Those who
knew Mr.. Lacy's power as a speaker were
prepared for the most excellent address,
but those who had not heard him had
buc poor idea of how earnestly and
tcrcetully, and how practically he talks.
Mr.. Lacy does not deal in pleasing fig
TRES, but gets down to the personal you
and l work, saying in the beginning that
what he said was not for a neighbor, but
for you He told how effective hcly
lie and personal work was, referring to
incidents in MS own life and home"
