ment of ali our people without regard
to party, sect or creed, in saying that
few men had more warm personal
friends; few have welded greater IN
fluence for good and for the uplife of
the State along industrial civic and ed
ucationaI lines than Joseph P. Cald-
well, whose death the people OF the
State are called upon to mourn. He
always stood for progress, ever for up
building-never for tearing down. He
was never a muck-raker. His crit1-
cisms we're just, but left no sting. He
was never a radical but was always
progressive. AS in the past the many
have shed tears over, his editorials so
sweetIy and tenderly expressed upon
the death of some great and distin-
guished man, little child or q person
al friend, so the many will md the
tears silently trickling down their
faces when they read the sad an
nouncement OF the death Of this great
North Carolinian."

Witness Last Sad Rites.

U4bAACS6 AA6Sg Ot4U 4NAUCS0
Statesville, Nov. 23.-With sweet and
impressive services the body of Joseph
Pearson Caldwell, late editor OF the
Charlotte Observer, was laid to rest
here this afternoon, the final services
and tributes being heard by one Of the
largest concourses of grief strickeH
and sorrowfng relatives and friends
that possibly ever gathered near the
bier of North Carolinian.
The body arrived here from Morgan
ton at noon and from that hour until
4 o'clock lay in. state in the First Pres
byterian church All trains brought
numbers of friends of the greatly be-
loved editor and a special from Char
lotte brought members of the staH Of
the Observer. and Chronicle and News
and relatives and warm personal
friends. The services began promptly
at o'clock and were conducted by
Rev. Plato Durham, Rev. Mr.. RaynaE
Rev. Archibald Johnson and Rev P. Is,
Law, all paying brief, though beautiful
and sincere tributes to the memory
and life of Mr.. Caldwell.
The floral tributes were the most
elaborate and beautiful ever seen here
and it is doubtful If such tributes frCm
friends in all the south were ever laid
over the grave Of North Caro1infaH.
! Men representative of every calling
and industry in the state were present
to pay personal and silent tribute -
the memory of the gifted editor.
The interment was made in TIE
Statesville cemetery and all thO90

ing.
The mighty has fallen in the
termination of this useful and
eventful life. North Carolina
mourns the loss Of a noble and
distinguished son. Joseph p.
Caldwell wah devoted to his
State and her people. He loved
every foot Of her domain and
gloried in the achievements of
her progressive citizenship. The
people, in turn, admired and re-
spected him. He was scrup1ous-
ly honest and despised hypocricy
in all it's forms. In Mr.. Cald-
wells hand the pen, indeed, was
mightier than the sword, for he
possessed the courage of his con-
victions. Popular clamor carried
no terrors for him. Honesty
was ever the best policy in his
estimation, and he consistently
practieed it in his daily activities
until the strong arm fell help
less at his side.
The language fails me in this
hour of inexpressible grief, to re-
cord my real estimate of this de-
parted friend and his inestima-
BILE service to the State he served
SO long and faithfully, without
regard or the hope of reward.
Those who loved him most were
those who knew him best. Genial,
affable. sunny-spirited, uniformly
courageous and considerate Of
the feelings of others, Mr.. Cald-
well did not live in vain. The
many admirable traits of charac-
ter he possessed will live long in
the memories of his surviving
friends and generations yet un-
born"

AS an editorial writer he scarcely

General of North Carolina.
"The ruling passion of Joseph
P. Caldwell was his worship of
the truth. He sought for it as
hidden treasure and whether
he found it in gutter or in
temple he held it up and let it
shine. His next most prominent
trait was his unfailing sense Of
humor, a humor shot through
with sunshine. He laughed at
men and loved them at the same
time. He quarreled with 'Dea-
con- Hemphill for twenty years
and at the end they were as
David and Jonathan. These are
the things that gripped him to
our people. They felt that he
was their very own; and today
North Carolina kneels and prays
for her loved son"

Eeats of Archery.

plains there were Indians who, while
riding at gaIlop, could send an arrow
through bufaio's body. Remarkable

MacRaes of Gairlock, Scotland, were
such skillful archers that they could
hit man at the distance Of 500 yards.

London shot an arrow, in Z field near
that capital, 415 yards against the
