Safe at S. A. L. Station
Blown Wednesday Night

The safe in the office of the
Seaboard agent was cracked
Wednesday night, evidently by
professional yeggmen. The
door was literally blown to
pieces.
Mr.. Eubanks, the agent and
Mr.. White, the express man,
lef thet office about nine o'clock.
The safe was blown about one. A
Mr.. Parker was passing the sta
ton just as the safe was blown
and heard the noise, which was
not sufficient to attract his at
tention, or either too significant
for him to investigate alone.
Fortunately there was net
very much money in the safe,
probably $100. However there
were checks given by local firms
amounting to over $40, 600.
People living across the street
from the building did not hear
the explosion and the discovery
was not made until Thursday.
The yeggmen left no clue, how
ever blood hounds were brought
in an attempt to locate the crimi-
nails or at least trace the direct
ion in which they departed.

The third speech that

The third speech that lives ir
the mind of this writer was whar
was truly the most inspired
speech heard in the Senate
Chamber in half a century. The
temperance forces were fighting
for the initial measures which
opened the door for the State and
National emancipation from the
drink evil. The fate of important
measures hung in the balance
when Captain Mason, State Sem
ator, rose to speak near the close
OF the morning session. Soon
the galleries were thronged and
the floor crowded, the House be-
ing deserted. Poets have sung
OF Home, but rarely, if ever, such
a tribute for the home and the
protection of youth fell from the
lips of man. Certainly no one
who heard it can ever forget
that the Senate Chamber seemed
transformed into a sanitary and
when he ended the cause for
which he had spoken was trium-
phant.

needs that a double portion of the
spirit of that golden-hearted gen.
tleman shall fall upon it in the
days that lie before US. He had
the dignity and philosophy of Bal
four, whom he resembled, and
the sweetnes and serenity which
BELTS one whose life has been
gentle, "
with the elements so mixed
in him
That nature might stand up to
to all the world and say
This was a man."

: preferment should realize the
, ambitions. But, while other
held positions of more prom
: nence, Captain Mason won graft
tude and distinction for servic
in war and in peace. He enter
ed the Confederate Army as
boy. All his life the Cause wa
dear to him, indeed sacred, an,
no man incarnated the spirit Of
Robert E. Lee more than Thos
w. Mason.
Captain Mason served long a.
trustee of the University O.
North Carolina, as member Of
the State Democratic Executive
Committee, often as delegate tC
great gatherings of the Metho.
dist church, of which he was a
devoted member, several times
as member Of both branches of
the General Assembly, as Rail-
road Commissioner and in other
positions of trust and honor.
Public position brought no dis
tinction to him and he was not
dependent upon official status.
He conferred honor by public ser
vice and every honor given him
came unsought. Integrity, was
of his fibre and love, of country
made up the warp and woof of
his being, In 1895 he was the
caucus nominee of his party for
United States Senator. He look
ed the part, and it was a mis-
fortune to the State that a Fus-
ionist secured the toga which
semed made for him. In 1896,
the year when Russell was elect
ed, Captain Mason was the
Democratic candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor, and when Mr..
Watson became i'll his canvass
Of the State was brilliant and
uplifting.
Few men have lived in the
State who possessed such elo-
luence. At his best, for he had
to feel deeply to reach the heights,
ne spoke with a spirit and COM
oelling eloquence which moved
Nj privileged to sit under the
spell of his utterance. Three
speeches made by Captain Ma
;on, recalled by this writer,
stand out among the noblest de-
ivered in North Carolina in a
,eneration.
The first was at the celebration
# the Centennial of the Univer-
ity. A score of the States first

Jason rose to speak the years
