THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY ANNUAL UNION MEETING OF THE * BIBLE SOCIETY. “THE WORD IS THE SEED.” That * as the Sobisc* of Rev. N. h. d. Wilson’s Sermon- Dr Ba'tle’s Bible Class-Poli'.ics Get ting Interesting. Chapel Ilill, N. C., April 26.—(Special.) —Last night there was a town meeting of the citizens of Chapel Hill held to dis cuss the possibilities of establishing graded schools for both races. The meet ing was well attended and was addressed by President Alderman, I>r. Venable, Prof. Collier Cobb and Prof. William Pearson (colored), principal .of the Dur ham Graded School. It wrs clearly shown by Prof. Cobb and Dr. Alderman that a 25 cent tax on the SIOO would give sufficient income to establish 8 moths schools, one for whites and one for the colored, each to have four teachers. Prof. Pearson spoke at length showing to the colored men the great advantages to be gained by their race. He is a strong nupporter and doubtless did great good here. After these speeches Dr. Venable, in his public spirited way, came forward and said that it had been shown clearly that the deficit could not be more than $65, and he would agree to pay $25 or more of this amount if necessary to make up the deficit. Dr. Alderman followed this with a few words pledging himself for the same amount and Prof. Cobb did the same. The relation of the University to the great public school system is so near it has seemed strange that in this town where of all others there should be public sehoo'u of the first class that the town should have lieen without them. This act will bring many desirable families to Chapel Ilill. The speeches of Dr. Alderman, Prof. Cobb and Dr. Venable plainly showed tin* value of the schools by the deep interest which they manifested. The school is now an rosured success. It will be set tled finally at the polls on Monday next. The white people and better class of colored people are working hard to see Barbee mayor for another term. He has ' een the best mayor Chapel Hill has ever had. THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY. Mr. E. .T. Wood read an interesting and instructive paper on the history of the f ower Cape Fear at the meeting of the Historical Society. He was followed by Mr. .T. G. Mc- Cormick with a short but very valuable sketch of several members of the con vention of 1861, being part of his sketch es of the entire membership of that body. They were: W. W. Wood fin, General Bryan Grimes. Governor D. S. Reid, Lieut. A. 11. Merritt, Hon. John Man ning, Hon. K. Raynor. Hon. Wm. S. Ashe, Hon. Bedford Brown. Hon. C. R. Thomas, and lion. John Ilill, of Stokes. Dr. Battle gave a sketen in detail of the selection of the site of the University, of the various competing point.*, of its ap pearance a hundred years ago, together with short hostories of the commissioners of location and of the donors of the land. Among others things he made this in teresting statement “James Craig lived in the house still occupied by one oi bis grandchildren, then separated from the village by a wide forest. * * I heard President Andrew Johnson, in a speech delivered from President Swain’s front steps, tell how, when on his way to seek his fortune in Tennessee, having walked from Rnleiglf, penniless and weary, he begged for a supper ami night’s lodging at James Craig’s. With softened voice he spoke of the cordiality with which he was received, and how after abundant meals and a good night’s rest, he was cheered on his lonely journey by kind words and a full supply of food inn his noekets.” There were many other remin iscences of old times, hut the reading was cut short by the expiration of the hour. BIBLE SOCIETY MEETING. tions cluster as . that of “Mother,’’ I yet there are months when her life is filled with pain, dread and suffering, and she looks forward to the final hour with gloomy Pursual lo notice an interesting union meeting was held in the Presbyterian church here last Sunday evening, the oc casion being the anniversary of the Chapel Hill Auxiliary of the American Bible Society. An interesting sermon was preached by Rev. N. IT. P. Witeon, pastor of the Methodist church, to a large and appreciative audience, his text being, “The Word is the Seed.” Immediately following the sermon, the Society was called to order by the Presi dent, Prof. K. I*. Harrington. After a few well-timed remarks from the presi dent. a call was made for the report of s he Secretary and Treasurer. A. S. Barbee respealed with a very elaborate ••eport of the operations of the Society during the pr.st year, in connection with which he gave a wonderfully exhaustive outline of figures, facts and thoughts c-ov • -i/iag the introduction of the Bible in the United States—the organization of Bible -oeVtit's. and the work done by these so •ietlcs, dealing, however, principally with ‘he operations of the American Bible So ciety. and closing with an earnest and pressing appeal for contributions to the Society’s funds. The appeal touched not only the heart, but the pocket-book of many present, and resulted in a handsome •ontriburion, which, under the direction of tlie Executive committee, will go for ward for the furtherance of the beno fVial and strictly undenomination work of the parent society. An election of officers for the ensuing vear was had, which resulted in the un animous re-election of the officers of the irrst year. This. society lias distributed many volumes of the Bible throughout this section, some of which may now be found in homes that have l>een without a Bible many years, indeed, in some that have never had one. EPISCOPAL CHURCH ELECTION. There was a meeting of tin* Parish of Chapel Hill in the Episcopal church here Tiis faf signature offiST troa every wrapper of CASTOBIA THE NKAVS AND OBSERVER, APRIL 2 ', 1897. on Sunday last and the following dele gates to the Episcopal State convention were elected: Dr. John Manning, Dr. K. p. Battle, Dr. Charles Bcukerville, Mr. R. S. Mcßae, with Prof. Samuel May as alternate. Dr. Manning will leave, as soon ns be is able to stand the trip, for Chase City. Vn., so Mr. May will serve in the vacancy thus caused. At a meeting of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew Mr. Francis Osborne, Mr. Hal Andei.ion, Mr. T. A. Cheatham and Mr. Adlai Osborne were elected delegates to the Brotherhood meeting in Raleigh on Friday, the 14th of May. The Episcopal convention v. ill begin on Wednesday, th? 12<th, lasting until Sunday night, the 16th. Sometime ago I noticed in the News and Observer a statement from a minis ter of Eastern North Carolina which snoke of the absence of Bibles in the University. That thV* statement may not gain for its author any reputation for veracity I make note of the fact that for years past it lias been a custom In the Univemty to have an hour’s Jecture on characters of the Old Testament by Dr. Battle every Sunday morning, and a Bible lias always been on the reading desk in the chapel, where it is read every morning before the entire (student body. Dr. Iv. P. Battle has consented to de linver the annual address at the closing exercises at Itaebon Academy, Robeson comity, on May 21st. Dr. Alderman’s addresses in South Carolina and Milwaukee are the only he has thus far given out for pub lication. INSURANCE IN NORTH CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA. April 22. 1897. To the Editor: The insurance Act passed by the last Legislature is a ques tion which deeply concerns the people of North Carolina. The bill is a just one, and it is clear to the minds of all con servative and fair-minded men of North Carolina. Why should the citizens of North Carolina pay 1 Vl* per cent Fhen the people of the valley of Virginia pay 50 cents, and the citizens of Halifax county, Virginia, 1 per cent? The purport and the intention of the bill was to g.Ve the people of North Carolina as liberal and as fair rates as the State of Virginia. Those living in the inland sections of North Carolina did not know of the dis crimination against them. They can readily eee it now, ami will rise up to a man and ask why they should be charged a hundred per cent more than certain sections of Virginia? Our people of the cities and towns should investigate these matters, and have commitees to do it, and ask the companion to treat them with the proper justice and consideration. One man pays SBO.OO on a dwelling for five years: he lives in Virginia. In a few hundred yards, his North Carolina neighbor pays $45.00 for five years—so per cent more on the same condition, same.clas.s of property. But few of the farmers look into these questions. Those who do, and who pro ceed with the facts and take an earnest stand for justice, usually get it. Let the insurance companies and the people take a conservative and righteous view of this question. This is a stringent time upon our people, and they need re lief from every source of those extra burdens. JOHN S. CUNNINGHAM. Roxboro, N. C. s STANDS AT THE HEAD. Aug. J. Bogel, the leading druggist of Shreveport, La., says: “Dr. King’s New Discovery is the only thing that cures my cough, and i( is the best seller I have.” J. F.
