Death of a Worthy Negro Man.

William Merriman, the we'll known
blacksmith, died at his home in Hen
derson last Thursday night. He had
been in failing health for several
months, the immediate cause being
heart disease Bill Merriman was IS
years old and was one of our most
worthy negro citizens. For many
years he conducted a blacksmith
shop and did work for a great many
people throughout this section. He
was a quiet, Industrious, respectful
and self-rsepecting man and had the
confidence and good will of all who
knew him. He had held the position
of town commissioner but politics
was not much to his liking, and he
was never otticious or offensive even
in the days of negro domination.
The funeral was held from the First
Colored Baptist church at $50 p. M,
Sunday, August ,, Rev. K. |. Walden
conducting the service assisted by
Rev J. A. Cotton and Rev. John
Harris.
Pall-bearers were: Harrison Wor-
than, Henderson Scott, Elijah VIM
bush, Alfred Fame, Elijah Howard,
and Mingoe Brodie.
There was a a very large attendance
at the funeral, showing the estima-
ton in which the dead man was held
by the people of his race.

Home Converted Into Temporary
Hospital.

Friends of DR.. and Mrs. F. A.
Macon will rejoice with them in the
improved condition of their children,
two boys and a girl, who have been
sick with typhoid fever for some
weeks. The crisis has passed and at
this writing each one of the little pa
TENTS is about free from fever and
convalescing. One Of the little boys
was taken sick while at Morenead
City with his father during the en-
campment of the Second Regiment
and was brought to Rex hospital in
Raleigh, to be taken home later.
Soon thereafter the other son who
was down there was stricken and he
too was brought home. The little
girl fell a victim to the dread disease
about the same time and the home
has been a regular hospital since.
But as stated above the sick ones
are improving and if no relapse is
suffered they will soon be we'll again.
Summer complaints and other serious all
ments common in hot weather can be traced

Enlarged and Improved.

The store room of the Watkins
Hardware Company-retail depart
ment-has been greatly enlarged and
improved and made to look about
twice it's former size and much lighter
and better every way. The partition
at the back has been removed, the
arrangement of the office changed.
shelving extended and the interior
reprinted. 1t has the appearance of
a different place altogether and is
quite an improvement every way.
The stock has been rearranged, the
shelf goods better placed and a more
strict supervision can be kept on the
run of things generally.
This is an idea of Mr. Samuel Wat
kins, Jr., the progressive and ag-
gressive young manager Of the retail
department of the Watkins Hard
ware Company, whose managerial
ability is asserting itself since he
assumed charge. And with an ample
stock and competent corps of assist
ants he is prepared to serve all Gus
toners and meet all competition as
to extent, variety and quality OF
goods and prices charged.

Condition Somewhat Better.

Mr.. W. r. Watson who has been
quite sick with typhoid fever at Buff
falo Springs, is improving. He
passed through here from his home
in Greenville about three weeks ago
TO rest and recuperate at Buffalo.
He had not been we'll for some time
but did not realize that he was on
the verge OF II severe spell Of sickness.
Immediately after he reached Buffalo

and for awhile his life was almost
despaired Of His wife and brothers.
Robert. of Warrenton, and 1vey, of
Enfield, were with him, and his moth
err, Mrs L. n Watson, OF Axtell,
went to Buffalo Monday before last
to be with him. She came back

Desperate Shooting Affair.

A desperate shooting affair oc-
CURED Friday night when Police
Officer j. C. Champion had a miracu-
lous escape from death at the hands
of a negro named Zeb Hamme who
fired several pistol shots point blank
at him at close range.
1t seems that Officer Champion and
Special Policeman VIII Mangum went
to the house where Hamme stayed to
to arrest a woman. While they were
there Hamme came up. Complaint
had been made against him for fight
ing his wife and he was wanted also.
As he walked up and demanded to
know what brought the officers there
he was told to consider himself under
arrest. At this he broke and ran.
Officer Champion called to him to
stop but shot was the reply. Sew
eral shots passed between the pursuer
and pursued and the negro took
refuge in a ditch opening fire on the
officer at close range when he came
up. A regular fusilade of gun play
followed on both sides and that no
more serious damage was done is a
mystery. 1t is said the negro put
his pistol right into the face of the
officer and shot four or five times,
without effect, the officer in the mean
time standing over and emptying his
pistol at the negro who was partly
Obscured by the darkness. Having
emptied his pistol the negro jumped
up and ran, the officer in hot pursuit.
Becoming entangled in a wire fence
the negro was overtaken and Il hand
to hand fight ensued the officer Wig
orously using his club before the des
perate fighter was subdued.
The negro was shot in the arm
and his head was considerably bat
tered and bruised but beyond this
there were no other casualties. Given
a preliminary hearing Hamme was
committed to jail to await the action
of the higher court.

Want a Piano?

George H. Snyder, Southern repre-
sentative of w. w. Kimball Co., Raj
eigh. N. c., ADVERTISE a piano sale
until September 1st, OF from 25 to
so per cent. off from regular prices.
This is done to clear out every used,
shopworn and secondhand piano
during August at some price. They
have got to go, and no reasonable
price and terms will be refused All
are good pianos. several used less
than one year, and some are Just
shopworn. Every piano is guaran-
teed. Nearly all are worth full price,
but half will get some of them.
About 20 pianos in the lot. and at
the prices put upon them they will
not stay there long. Ifyou want to
buy a good piano at saving in
money that is worth while it will pay
you to investigate. An opportunity
seldom presented is offered in this

Death of A Little Child.

Friends of Mr.. and Mrs. John A.
Poythress sympathize with them in
the death of their infant child. little
girl, Ruby Lucille, aged about 5
months, which occurred at 5:45 p.
M, last Sunday. Aug. End. But a
little while this tender bud Ofhuman-
ity was given to bless and brighten
the home but she had lived long
enough to entwine her little being
about the life of the household and
her taking away leaves a void in the
home and hearts Of the bereaved
parents.
Those who have suffered like sor-
row can feel tenderest sympathy for
them in their deep bereavement and
ask Him who doeth all things we'll
to be and abide with them.

Engaged in a Worthy Undertaking.

and iaudable undertaking are worthy
of more than passing mention. But
for the life of US we do not know
how to classify her. Judged by

reference to Miss Nellie Newman, rep

of that concern for culinary purposes.
