Several years prior to his death he
again united with the Methodist
church. in which he remained a 10y
al member until his death. He was
a shrewd, aggressive business, man,
and manifested great interest in pub
lie education.
Besides his business qualifications
he was congenial and popular man
with hosts of friends.

so beautifully resigned to death, Per-
fectly rational to the end, his talk be-

Directions as to his funeral were CIV
en- by him as calmly and cheerfully
as though they were preparations for
an earthly journey, and when the end
came in an almost inaudible way he
was heard to speak of the JOY and
happiness which would last forever.
His funeral services were conducted
at Hollands church, by Rev. G. w.
Fisher in a most appropriate and i'm
pressive manner, and there with Ma
sonic honors and in the presence of a
number of surviving relatives and
friends. his remains We're tenderly
laid 10 rest.
In addition to his sorrow-stricken
widow and children, he leaves an aged
father, two sisters and three brothers.
We extend to them our kindest SYM

eternal gain.

in the dark hour of trial and help us
all to realize that "our light Affections
which are but for a moment, may
work out for us a far more exceeding

NOT A GOOD MONTH, EITHER.

Uu to midnight last night since the
first day of July the News and Obser-
yer has added to it's list of
daily subscribers three hundred and
eighty-three new subscribers-and or
dinarily July is not good month for
getting new subscribers.
There is no political campaign this
year and nothing else of such special
interest as usually attracts new sub
scriptions in the dullest month of 1.-The
good old summer time" and the large
number of new daily subscribers il
proof of the solid and substantial pop
ularity of 1.-The Old Reliable" The
which now hos over forty per cent
more subscribers than any other daily
paper In North Carolina--imposes
upon the management responsibility to
keep the paper UP to the present high
standard and to leave no stone un-
turned to make it better with every
passing month. The News and Obser-
yer seeks to be a useful agency in ad-
vancing the causes that will make for
the welfare of North Carolina and to
serve the people of the State without
fear or favor. That so many good
people read it's columns daily imposes
upon it the duty of conscientiousiy
standing for right principles, for pup
lie and private morality, for pure pol
tiles and the enforcement of the laws
against those who are corrupt In pub
lie life or who debase the lives of men
or women, or seek to pollute the foun-

of the dreaded disease, consumption

shock to his family and friends and

Honor Among Business Men.

sorry is told of Robert Ogden
about a friend of his, not long dead,
who held securities in a certain rail-
road Being told, and from a source
to leave no doubt, that the road was
about to collapse, he refused to sell,
not wishing to shift the loss upon
purchaser He had no large amount
of money, but he was rich in some
thing better. With all the venal trick
cry that is being exposed, We lean
to belief that men like this exist in
America in large numbers today than
they did five, dozen, or twenty years
ago. We hope there will soon be few
