Train No. 43 Wrecked.

The Seaboard Air Line south
bound passenger train No. 43,
running from New York to Jack
sonville, was wrecked at Merry
Oaks Thursday night of last week
and eighteen passengers were in
jured. All the cars, nine in num-
Der, were derailed and several
were badly battered up. The
engineer was Mr.. George Gill, of
Raleigh, but he escaped uninjur-
ed. The wreck occurred directly
in front of the station, where
there is a switch. The engine
passed safely over the switch,
but the second car split it, this
causing the wreck.
The man with a theory may
turn out to be a gold brick ped
dler in disguise.

A little Ring Given to Mrs. Gar
lick by Gen. r. E. Lee While
Visiting in Her Fathers Home.

Visiting in Her Fathers home.
Mrs. w. L. Garlick, of this
place, has a little gift that she
cherishes very highly. 1t is a
gold ring given to her by General
Robert E. Lee while he and his
daughter, Miss Mildred, were 90
a visit to Mrs. Garlick's father,
Capt. James Biggs White, and
family at Weldon.
General Lee visited this family
twice in North Carolina, he and
Capt. White being very intimate
friends. The first visit was made
by him and his daughter, Miss
Agnes, in 1868 while the White
family lived at the John Z. Eaton
farm. where the Vance county
home now is. While 81 Ing
some time in this home they went
to visit the grave of his daugh-
ter, Miss Annie Lee, at Jones
Springs about nine miles from
Henderson over in Warren coun-
ty. !,
Miss Annie Lee died at the
springs, where she had come for
her health, in 1862, and General
Lee found a beautiful monument
erected to her memory there by
the women Of Warren county,
which was the first monument
erected by women to q woman.
1t is said that the organization OF
these ladies on this occasion was
the beginning Of the United
Daughters Of the Confederacy.
This monument was made Of the
granite of that county, carved by
one of it's citizens, Mr.. L. l..
Crowder, grandfather Of Mr.. K;
B. Crowder, of Henderson, and
another citizen, Major .. K.
Smith, was master of ceremO-
MES at the unwilling. The Gen
eral was SO thankful to see the
interest that had been taken in
his daughters grave that he
would never have the remains
moved from that place, but want
ed them to rest forever in the
soil Of North Carolina.
Two years later General Lee
and his daughter. Miss Mildred,
visited Capt. Whit" and family
again at Weldon. where they
then lived. On this occasion he
gave Capt. Whites tWo-year-old
daughter. Fannie. noW Mrs. W.
L. GarIichJ d IittIe gold ring and
put it on her finger. Before Civ
ing it to hor ne took out his pen
and wrote on the little box it
came N: Prize it not for its
worth, but value it for the love
and admiration that the donor
holds for child and parents. p"
He gave to the hostess, Mrs.
White, d beautiful bouquet that
was presented to him while leav-
ing Atlanta, and Miss Mildred
Lee gave a bunch of flowers to
Mrs. }. +. Spillman, who was a
visitor in the White home at that
time. The father and daughter
and Capt. White visited Miss An
MES grave again on this occa-
sion.
The day before General Lee
and his daughter left Weldon
Capt. and Mrs. White gave g
dinner in honor Of them. There
were nine hundred guests pres.
ent four hundred of whom were
masonS. Gen. Matt Ransom was
speaker of the day. Mr.. Lee
was in very feeble health at thai
time and was not able to be pres
ent at the dinner.

Warrenton Defeats Henderson.

The Warrenton Record gives
the following account of the
game of basket ball played by
that team and the girls of the
Henderson high school:
The first game of basket ball
ever played in Warrenton was
played here Friday afternoon,
when the Warrenton girls defeat
ed the Henderson team with the
score of 8 to 0. 1t was a cold
wet day and the field was slick
with mud, but in spite of the in
clemency of the weather and the
condition Of the court, the girls
fought manfully. NotWithstand-
ing the fact that the Henderson
team has been playing for two
years and that it was the first
time the home team has ever
played together, it was a posi-
tive walkover for Warrenton.
Even from the beginning, it was
easily seen that the Henderson
girls had no chance whatever
against the strong Warrenton
team.
The teamwork of the Warren,
ton girls was splendid and excel
lent passes and almost impossible
catches were made, but the Wis
iting team went all to pieces from
the beginning. Mary E. Price
and Elizabeth Jones starred fol
Warrenton, while Mabel Jones
and Mary Smitherman made fine
plays for Henderson.

SEVEN DAYS TO PRACTICE.
v. Of M. Athletes Must Hustle For
Pennsylvania Games.

Ann Arbor Mich, April 20.--The re-
lay men have only seven days left in
which to prepare for the Pennsylvania
relay carnival. Just how much they
during the vacation
would be hard to determine, but it is
certain that they put in a vast amount
of work and derived good therefrom.
The try-outs will amount to little
There will be some good running to be
sure; but the fields will be small
With six quartermilers and perhaps
five half milers there is little chance
for choice. Much will depend on the
next few days work. DIR. Kraenzlein
has his mind made up by
this time, and knows whether or not
he will take teams into the east at the
end of the month, but he isn't ready
to make any statements just now.
