ing the meeting Of the Genera Socie
ty at Ashevi1le in April. Mrs. T. Il.

a very memorable occasion for the.
hundreds who Will attend it. Mrs

eral society ON the 25th of ApDil, ana
, that this will be made a very hand
! some affair
AS yet no arrangements have been
! completed for the settlement OF the
| South Dakota judgment against this
| state. South Dakota wants the fun
amount, $27,5OO. North Carolina
! thinks that because of the fact that
the Shaefer e Bro. the other holders
of the bonds of this class accepted
1892 per bond as a compromise, that
South Dakota certainly ought to be
willing to accept $1,750 per bond,
which would be twice the amount
which SchafeF Bros received.

| tatiOnS to deliver an address on edu-
cation at GuiFford in April; to deliver
