Death of Nicholas Butler.

Saddened but not surprised were
the friends of the family when they
learned Monday morning OF the death
Of Mr.. Nicholas Butler, which occurred
about $50. He had been in failing
health for some time and when his
condition became such that he could
not leave the house, his final passing
from mortal life to life immortal was
expected at any hour. Not unlocked
for though it was the death OF this
young man is peculiarly sad. He
was about "a years old, the second
son OF Mr.. E. g. Butler, one Of Hen
derson's most highly esteemed and
worthy citizens, an elder brother-a
bright and promising young man
having preceded him to the life be-
yond a few years ago, as had his
mother. Beside his father there are
left four sisters and one brother:
Mrs DR.. J. H. Tucker, Misses Amy,
Florence and Mary Butler, of Hender-
son, and Mr.. Ed Butler, at present
located in Durham.
The funeral was held from the Epis-
copal church at 3:3Oo'clock Tuesday
afternoon, the rector, Rev. l. W.
Hughes, conducting the service. Pail
bearers were Richard Jones, Bennett
Perry, Frank Robards, Edwin Wat
kins, Perry Rose, Edmund Taylor,
active; NJ. J. O'Neil, Prof. J. T. Alder
man, ". Fl. Jenkins, A. c. Zollicoffer,
honorary.
The floral tributes sent were nu-
merous and beautiful.

Error Corrected.

In the advertisement OF Il. l.. Perry,
attorney, giving notice that applica-
ton will be made to the Governor
for the pardon of Willie TONNES, con-
victed of murder and sentenced TO
fifteen years in the penitentiary, an
error was made as to the date OF the
sentence or term OF court at which he
was convicted. 1t should have read
February p, 1905, instead OF 1910.
as printed last week. As matter OF
fact Townes has served nearly six
wears OF his term whereas owing TO
the typographical error mentioned 1t
was made to appear that he had
served less than ten months.
We make this correction in justice
to LAWYER Perry's client.

About the Library.
Contributed.


The library will be opened Dec. 9th, in
the Teacup Inn, over Davis grocery
store, and thereafter on Tuesday and
Saturday of each week.
The Pocket System, the system in use
In many of the large libraries through
out the country has been adopted.
Thus, in small as well as great matters,
the committee intends to conduct the
library along up-to-date lines.
1t is believed that almost every person
in town has a book or books, that he
would be willing to contribute. Any
one so disposed will send same to the
Teacup Inn.
1t is also hoped that every person
not already, a subscriber will add his
name to the list. Everybody wants q
library and this seems the only way to
set the move on foot. The price is 81 90
a year Next year it may be a public
free library 1t will be il people want it
bad enough. Henderson usually gets
what it goes after.

Loving Cup for Mr.. Craven.

One Of the happy incidents in connec-
ton with Thanksgiving in Henderson
was the presentation OF handsome low
ing cup to Rev. R. C. Craven by the fac
ulty and pupils of the Central Graded
School in appreciation of the willing ser
vice he has rendered the school during
his residence in Henderson. Mr.. Craven
has just finished his four years term as
pastor Of the Methodist Episcopal church
to take up the work of the Master in
another field and it was fitting that the
testimonial in question should have come
at this time
The presentation took place in school
auditorium which was crowded, on We'd
nesday morning, 23rd. Superint endent
j. 7. Alderman who spoke for the faculty
and pupils in presenting the gift said in
part:
"When man dies the newspapers say
what good man he was, but he can't
hear when he is cold in death. We order
beautiful flowers, but it is too late for
him to enjoy them This is all wrong.
If we appreciate him tell him when liv-
ing. Express appreciation. When a boy
or girl does well in school they should
be told OF it. 1t is one of the missions
OF us as human, social beings to make
people Joyous, happy. 1t is so much like
the Divine. Mr.. Craven has, for four
years, rendered real service in this CON-
munity for the schools, and before he
leaves we want to let him know that we
appreciate it,
Mr.. Alderman then presented the beau
tiful silver cup in the name of the teach
ers and pupils OF the school.
Receiving it, Mr.. Craven feelingly ex-
pressed his thanks and his appreciation
OF the loving spirit that promoted the
gift.
Following is the inscription on the
cup:

The great scarcity of offerings caus-

MOST HEALTHFUL
FRUIT KNOWN.

Physicians now claim
that the orange is the
most healthful of all
fruits. Hence it is a food
that can be eaten liber-
ally and as often as de-
sired. 1t is much more
appetizing and healthful
for children, men and wo-
men than candy, pastry
and other too-rich foods.
Medical authorities state
that to counteract the
meats and other heavy
foods we eat, one should
eat oranges literally. 1t
is a universally known
fact that orange juice is
excellent food for the brain
cells and a tonic for rum
down nerves. No better
laxative than sound, ripe
oranges can be found.
