DAV|DDUNCANDE
Passed Away Yesterday
Afternoon at His Home
in Beaufort.

Relatives received a telegram yes
terday afternoon announcing the
death at Beaufort of Mr.. David Jones
Duncan, whose critical illness has been
heretofore noted in these columns.
The end came at half-past three
o'clock in the afternoon, and the fun
eral will probably be held at Beau
fort today.
With Mr.. Duncan at the last We're
his wife, who was formerly Miss Fan
ME Dudley, of Beaufort, his two child
rem his father, Mr.. William d. Dun
can, and his brother, Collector e. c.
Duncan. of Raleigh.
Mr.. Duncan was twenty-nine years
of age and had lived in Raleigh for
the past seven years. During the lat
ter years of his life he had been a
great sufferer, but had gone about his
duties in the Revenue Department
with a grit that marked him a man
in the truest sense of the word, while
the brave sunniness of his disposition
won for him the love and admiration
of all with whom he came into social
contact.
There will be many in Raleigh today
who will read this notice with the
deepest sorrow and whose sympathies
will go out in all sincerity to the Wild
ow father, and brother, and the two
small children who are thus so sadly
deprived of the care of loving par

asked TO consent to a reelection.
His management of the past several
canonaipns has endeared him to the
Deople and he is a man in whose abil-
tiles the State has the greatest conf
dence. At the same time, the duties
Of the position are so arduous that no
one could complain if the Senator, af-
fer the performance of such good
work. should conclude to retire. A
close friend of Mr.. Simmons stated
Yesterday. however, that while he did
not know that such was the fact he
felt confident that the Senator would
again assume the reins of party man
agement.
Another matter that may possibly
come before the committee is the
question of q Joint canvass with the
Republican nominees. The DemOcra-
cy's settled policy has always been for
Joint discussion before the people and
there will be this year no departure
from that rule, if the Republicans
wish to present the issue in that clear
stvIe. AS the dominant party, how
ever, the Democracy will doubtless ar
range it's own campaign and leave its
various candidates free to accept any
challenge for joint debate that may
come from the other side and to
amend their dates to suit the eXigen-
cies of the discussion. Joint debate
is a positive pleasure to Mr.. Glenn He
is rough fair. courageous and elo-
quent; and if the Republicans could
find q suitable man to match against
him. there would then be something
doing during the summer and early
fall.

FOR GRAY OR HARMON.
The Financiers Arc Said to Favor
These Two.
Especial Dispatch to the Herald)

Especial Dispatch to the Herald)
Chicago, ILL.,, Monday.-It is assert
ed in financial circles here that for
more than six months j. Pierpont
Morgan James j. Hill and other fl
nanciers have been working to bring
about the nomination of Judge George
Gray, of Delaware, or Judge Judson
Harmon, of Ohio, for President on the
Democratic ticket.
John F. Dickinson, of the Illinois
Central Railroad, is reported to be in
the confidence of these men. Mr..
Dickinson made the plea for the United
States in the Alaskan boundary hear
ing in London. When asked if it was
true that he favored Judge Gray for
the nomination Mr.. Dickinson said:
While / have the highest regard for
Judge Gray, my personal preference
is for Judson Harmon, of Ohio
1t is understood by local financiers
and politicians that neither Mr.. Nor
gan nor Mr.. Hill expects President
Roosevelt to be defeated. In the event
of his defeat, however, in supporting
Judge Gray or Judge Harmon they
wish a guaranty that the money mar
ket shall not be disturbed in case of
Democratic victory.

Judge Osborne Leaves Town.

Judge Frank I. Osborne, who has
been here for several days in cOnnec-
ton with the case of Melee and
Finch. who are under indictment for
conspiracy in Wake Superior court,
has returned to Charlotte.
AS stated in Tuesdays News and
Observer, Judge Osborn came for the
purpose Of securing a continuance for
his clients when this case is called at
July term of Wake Superior court.
Attorney General Gilmer is not in the
city, but it can be stated that no
agreement to continue has as yet been
made. However, the serious illness
of Capt. w. H. Day, of counsel for
the defendants, is so good a ground
that the motion for the continuance
will no doubt be promptly granted by
the court.
In that event the case will stand for
trial at the succeeding term of Crimi-
nal Court, which will be held next
September.

Mr.. Simmons ar Cir. Glenn to Con-
fer Some Time i'm Near Future
About Details-The EXecu-
tive Committee.

RumOr to the contrary, neither Mr..
Glenn nor Senator Simmons arrived
here yesterday morning to hold their
expected conference as to the details
of the Democratic campaign. They
will meet doubtless at an early date
and go over the ground thoroughly.
In the meanwhile, there is a feeling in
influential quarters that there is no
need for great haste or immediate ac-
ton of any kind and Mr.. Glenn is not
TO be hurried in any way. 1t is known
from the good experience of the past
that when he starts the fur will fly, =
and the people are awaiting him both
with enthusiasm and confidence.
Another important piece of pOliti-
cal routine that the near future holds,
is a meeting of the State Democratic
Executive Committee and the election
of a State chairman. 1T was at first
contemplated that this meeting should
be held in Greensboro on the occasion
of the meeting of the convention, but
after the all-night session and the ex-
cited and tired condition of the mem
bers and in consideration of the fact
that some of the committee left for
home Immediately after Mr.. Glenn's
nomination, it was thought the wiser
course to postpone the meeting until
such time as the members could meet
and thoroughly canvass the situation.

traction of other political affairs AS

MUSIC NOW.
After the Coffee War Was Over.

Many people select food or drink
that keeps them robbed of the health
strength and courage to do big things
not knowing that strong bodies and
sturdy brains require the right kind
of food and must not be drugged by
coffee. To illustrate the vicious eff
fects of daily smuggling the nerves with
coffee, the experience of teacher OF
music may be given.

agonies feeling every nerve in my

"Then I came to Eureka Springs to
my parents where / was surprised to
learn they no longer drank coffee but
served delicious hot drink they call
ed Postum instead. Even father had
abandoned coffee and said he now de-
pended on his hot Postum TO give
him strength to carry him through
the day and felt SO much better than
when he was using ordinary coffee

strange to relate | began to regain
my strength so fast that at the end
of two months | was completely cured
and as we'll as ever, without even a
fear of a return of the dreadful ner-
vous spells, while my gastritis was
also gone and my stomach was strong.
'Since Postum displaced coffee in
my diet my sleep is sound and refresh
ing and | arise with the joyful antici-
patton of entering upon the day s

and honestly say | have done my work
far better than when | was slave to
coffee and that added to prime health,

Ter complaint at the last hearing. Mr..

1t will be remembered that when
Judge Purnell appointed receivers for
the Atlantic and North Carolina rail-
road on the Cuyler complaint, that
the Finch complaint was also prevent

suit by Judge Purnell. AS this was
presented while the hearing was in

pared and will be filed Monday in all
probability, though the time has been
