A Son OF Beecher.

A son of the late Henry Ward
Beecher is. we are told, holding a
minor clerkship In the Seattle city
treasurers office. The only question
OF public interest in a case Of this
kind is based upon the hope that he
will be competent and honest in his
calling There is no reason in the
world why a Beecher should not earn
his living in an ordinary vocation. and
no reason why he should wish, in so
doing, to conceal his IL nifty. The

TRUCK SHIPMENTS DELAYED
Hours Late-Delays Cause Farmer
to Fell Very DespOndent.

Truck farmers are feeling very
gloomy over the bad luck they are
having in getting lettuce or the mar
kets anywhere near on schedule time.
Shipments that should have reached
Philadelphia yesterday at 6 a. m, did
nottarrive until 10 a. m and instead OF
getting to New York at Z it was l p.
m. This, of course, meant that the
lettuce sold for much less than would
have been the case had it been placed
on the early morning market. The
time has arrived for car load ship
ments but the Coast Line will give no
assurances of shipments in refrigera-
tor reaching their destination on sched-
she time. To be certain Of reaching
New York on Monday morning b let
tuce would have to leave here Friday
morning, when from Saturday until
Monday morning should be ample time.
The outlook is a gloomy one n as
shipments become heavier the con-
gested condition of freight causes the
farmers to realize more keenly what
they are losing by the delay.
A night express service would not
relieve the situation as to refrigerator
cars but it would as to express. The
lettuce is placed at the express office
under the existing conditions at the
same time it would be if there was a
night service.

Mr. L. +. johnson Dropped Dead at
Rose Hill Monday Afternoon


Especial TO The Messenger.)
Rose Hill. N. C., March 14.-One OF
the saddest deaths that have happen
ed in our quiet little town or eur
rounding community In several years
was that Mr.. f. l. Johnson, who
lived about 2 1-2 miles west from
here. He was in our town yesterday
afternoon seemingly in as good health
as usual, shaking hands with his
host of friends, and In less than five
minutes after talking with your CORE
Spondent he was seen TO totter and
fall TO the ground near his horses
head, at which place he had just step
ped out of the store Of Messrs. w D.
Henderson and company, to measure a
piece Of leather around his horses
head which he was buying to make q
bride.
Your correspondent rushed to him
and with the assistance of others who
come up raised him. but the ray Of
life had gone and death was almost
instant, caused by failure of the heart
to which he had been subject on for
mer occasions.
Mr.. johnson was n Of our best
nelghbOrS and liked by all who knew
him, and they were many. He left a
widow and several children, some of
them grown. but he left them all in
good circumstances. He leaves two
brothers, Mr.. J. L. Johnson, of Har-
rel's Store and Mr.. Armenian Johnson,
of Kelansville, besides other relatives
and if / mistake not he was closely
related to Mr.. E. F. Johnson, member
of the board of aldermen of Whining
ton.
Mr.. Johnson was q good man, a
faithful member of the NJ. E. Church,
and a deacon in same, and there can
be no doubt but that he is at rest,
and at the resurrection morn will be
placed among the chosen Of the LORD.
The sympathy Of the whole oommun-
ity at large goes out for the bereaved
widow and children. 3.
