COMMERCIAL
Weekly Review of Trade and

R. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of
trade says:
while there is tangible evidence Of
continued expansion in general bust
ness, the betterment is not entirely
uniform. Advices from leading centers
are rather mixed, yet favorable re-
ports outnumber those of an opposite
character and sentiment is more con-
fdent. In the important iron and
steel industry the belief is strength
ening that the turning point has about
been reached, although it is not ex-
pected that the recovery from pre-
vious depression will be rapid. Labor,
however, is more fully employed, mill
operations have increased, and even if
there has been no advance in prices,
further concessions are not so fire.

exiled senator recently driven into

portions as to command the serious at
tention of the State Department The
success of movement of this kind
might be regarded as a direct chal-
lenge to the Administrations policy of
disapproval of the erection of govern
ments by force and without reference
to the forms of a constitution.

News was received at the State De
psrtment from the American Legation
at Port au Prince that at Cape Haitien,
threatened by the rebels, the citizens
have formed a committee of public
safety, removed customs officials and
placed a commission in charge.
Although no treaty exists, as in the
case of Santo Domingo, which clothes
the United States government with au-
thority over the customs houses, it is
understood that ample authority for
taking over Haitien custom houses out
of control OF the national government
has been proffered through Ulrich
Duyivier, resident Haitien minister
here
The naval force available is believed
to be quite sufficient for the purpose.

Death Of Miss Nora Hawkins

On Friday, May Goth; our com
munjty was over Swallowed with
a. cloud of deep sorrow when
God in His infinite wisdom
and love took from us our be,
loved and esteemed friend, Nora
Hawkins.
She was born in 1880, in Hall
fax County near Aurelian
Springs, and is the daughter OF
Mrs. Mollie Hawkins.
Early in life she gave her
heart to God and united herself
with Hawkins Chapel. Up to
her death she lived an active
noble christian life. Nobleness
of character, purity of thought
and gentleness of manner won
for her a host of friends and to
know her was to love her.
She has passed from our
midst, but let us not think OF
her as dead but as gone to her
beautiful eternal home where she
will know not the cares of a
cold hard world.
Her remains were laid to rest
in the family burying ground,
burial services being conducted
by her pastor, Rev. c. J. Ed
wards. The floral offerings
were many and rare.
"Sleep on beloved and take thy
rest;
Lay down thy head upon thy
Savior's breast,
We loved thee well, but Jesus
loves thee best,
Goodnight, but not farewell. y
A FRIEND.

strictly adhered to by every
team on the league.

change was made to conform to

at the bases. The games Satur-
day promise to be closely con-

where near the standard of last

NEWS & OBSERVER ARTICLE
Boosting Roanoke Rapids Create,
Mild Sensation in Community

The booster'si article on Roa-
noke Rapids Township, which
appeared in the News and Obser-
yer on last Sunday, has naturally
caused quite a good deal of COM
ment in the community.
The article in question was
gotten up for the town of Roa-
noke Rapids by Mr.. George K.
Buck, of the News and Osberver
Company. Mr.. Buck spent two days
in the community obtaining data
in regard TO the various business
es and industrial enterprises of
the community.
1t goes without saying that in
an article of this kind with facts
so hastily gathered, a few minor
errors and inaccuracies must
have crept in. On the whole the
article for the Roanoke Rapids
Township was exceptionally good
for this class of work, and shows
up very favorably when compar-
ed with similar articles on towns
in this section of the State. 1t
was not filled up with personali-
ties, as is usually the case, and
while Mr.. Bucks enthusiasm in
a few instances did carry him a
little too far, we certainly think
he did about as well as anybody
had a right to expect of him in
consideration Of the limited time
he had to get his facts.

MEETING OF THE PRESBYTERIAN
Ladies Aid"
Especial to the Herald. J

The Ladies Aid Society of the
Presbyterian Church were de-
lightfully entertained in the
home of Mrs. WilliamF. Horner,
at their regular meeting on Tues
day afternoon at 400 P. M.
The Society was called to or
der by President Mrs. Job Tay-
lor. After the roll call and col
lection of dues, the business was
then taken up and many things
discussed.
Committees for the June White
Sale were appointed as follows:
Committee on Arrangements for
the Sale, Mrs. W. F. Horner,
Mrs. J. G. Butts and Mrs. c. A.
Wyche; Committee on Decora-
ton, Mrs. Job Taylor, Mrs.
Beckwith, and Mrs. Hayes; Com
mittee to sell, Mrs. Lehman, Mrs.
Mosher, Mrs. Chase, Mrs. Robin
son, Mrs. Stainback, and any of
the members that they call upon.
The Society will put on sale
at this time a waist and skirt
holder which is quite useful as it
holds the new blouse waist in the
latest style and fastens the skirt
without the aid of the usual long
bar pin. The ladies' of the COM
munity are invited to see this
wonderful little belt demonstrat-
ed at the White Sale on June 9th
at the Rosemary Opera House.
Ice cream and cake will also be
sold.
After the meeting the hostess,
Mrs. Horner, served delicious
strawberry cream and cake.
The Society will meet on Tues

money at all in the depot over
