The Easter services at the Presbyterian Church Sunday were grand. The church altar was decorated with beautiful flow ers, and on the walls were appropriate inscriptions for the occasion. Tne music was excellent. The wearing of gowns by the colored ministers of the Presbyterian Church has been adopted. They differ from that of the Episcopalians, in that the Presby terians wear black gowns and the Epis copalians wear white. The Fayetteville StreetViaptists Church has done away with lamps and inserted gas, all of which is quite an improve ment to the church. Rev. T. B. Ed wards has made many. material changes since in charge of that church. The junior Christian Endeavor Society of the ' Congregational Church, of this city, had an Easter service last Sunday evening. The program consisted of sing ing, recitations by the smaller children, and select reading by Miss Daisy E. Ricks. A Sunday of this week Mr. Arthur Broom, of Florida, who was taken from Shaw Uni versity on account of his health and car ried home, died Mr. Broom was one of the number to graduate in the Medical Department at Shaw, April, 1897. We are in sympathy with the bereaved ones. The Raleigh boys win. Monday even ing, April 19, 1897, the base-ball team of Durham played the Nationals at the park in this city. The game ended with S3 for the Nationals and 3 for Durham. The Democratic ring, prior to the pri maries, made a compact with the prohi bition element, and last week they duly executed a contract with the saloon ele ment. Surely they shall fall between the two. Neither side believes them. Rev. R. E. Blake closed his school Fri day evening. April 9th, in New Light Township, District No. 1. There were quite a number of visitors present to wit ness the closing exercises. The program was so well gotten up and so nicely car ried out that it was an honor both to the students and Rev. Blake. The people highly indorse the manner in which Rev. Blake conducted his school. Sunday morning, April 18, 1897, the last Easter in the old St. Paul Church, Raleigh. Never, in the history of St. Paul, has there been anything of the kind to equal this. The program consisted of essays, cornet solos, selections, duets, quartettes, select reading, recitations, etc. Remarks by Rev. R. H. W. Leak and an address by Ms. J. C. Davis. The won derful display will ever be remembered by. the many friends of that church. There is much to be admired regarding the good work accomp ished. On the 1st day of March, the family of Mr. Thomas Gatling was struck with sor row to their heart of the death of Mrs. Martha Gatling, who was drowned in the canal before assistance could reach her. She was a faithful member of the Bap tist Church, which she loved and to which she was devoted. She made home happy and loved her children and did all she could to make them happy. She is gone, but not forgotten. Our precious to our heart has gone. The voice we loved is still. The place made vacant in our home Can nevermore be filled. Our father in his wisdom called The boon his love has given; And though on earth the body dies. The soul is safe in heaven. Katie L. Gatling. School Money. The Superintendent of Public Instruc tion recently received a check for $900 from Dr. J. L. M. Curry, as agent for the famous Peabody Educational Fund. This amount is to be divided among four of the seven colored normal schools in the State. Mr. Mebane has allotted the money as follows: Fayetteville, $190; Franklin ton, $290; Plymouth. $290; Elizabeth City, $130. Total, $900. Referring to the colored normal schools, an important meeting of the State Board of Education has been called by Superin tendent Mebane for next Saturday at 1 o'clock in the Governor's office. The ob iect of the call is to appoint new local boards of trustet s for the seven colored schools of the State. These are at Salis bury, Fayetteville, Goldsboro, Franklin ton, Plymouth, Elizabeth City and Winston-Salem. The time for the issuing of the new catalogues for these schools is near at hand, and it is the custom to publish the names of the local board of trustees in them. It is for this reason that Mr. Meb ane has called for the State Board to meet on Saturday. The Ciceronian Lyceum of Shaw Uni versity favored the public with the most delightful entertainment of the season Wednesday evening, March 17, 1807. The entertainment marked the end of the Lyceum's work at Shaw and of her being supplanted by two incorporated so cieties. At 7:45 o'clock p. m. the University Chapel was being rapidly filled with a large, appreciative school and city audi ence. The members of the Lyceum marched in, keeping step with the music rendered by Mr. Willie Larkins. Having marched to their seats all the young men sat. The President of the Lyceum, Mr. G. H. Mitchell, ro3e and made a few wel come remarks. Mrs. H. M. Tupper and her sister, Mrs. Judson Wsde Leonard, being present,thePresident,in well-chosen words, welcomed them to the exercises. These great hearts can never be forgot ten. Shaw University and the Leonard Medical School owe a great debt of grati tude to them.. The following program was well ren dered: An essay on the Continental Con gress, by Mrs. J. W. Paisly; the Conti nental Congress, by the Lyceum; an ora tion eulogy on the N in teen to Century, by Mr. W. R. Taylor. Debate: "Resolved that this Nation will Eventually Decay as other Nations have Done." Affirmative, Mr. W. T. Askew. Negative, Mr. J. W. Robinson. The judges decided in favor of the negative. Perhaps the most striking feature of the exercises was the Continental Con gress. .The members of the Congreas spoke so eloquently and personated so well the old American heroes that it seemed almost as if one could imagine himself in the presence of Hancock, Sher man, Adams, Paco, Richard Henry Lee and the other old heroes as tbey were pleading for independence in 1776. After the program was executed, by request President Meserve responded with some very entertaining and instruct ing remarks. President Meserve is al ways pleased to see progress being made by the students. Long live the worthy President of Shaw. An Appeal to Baptist Pastors and Super intendents. The second Sunday in June is the day set apart as Children's Day. It is very much desired that it will be observed by every Sunday-school in our State. Let every pastor and superintend ent fee that their school join in with the schools all over this country and make this a day - noted for Christian activity among the Baptist young people. The appeals from poor preachers, poor schools, the many persons without the Bible and very poor ministerial students, reveal to me most clearly the very great necessity for the observance of this day by each Sunday-school. Besides, we teach the children to do something for others. They are taught the grace of giving. The American Baptist Publication So ciety has prepared a very fine programme for the occasion, which can be had free of charge, by anyone who may desire it. Send for copy at once, so that you may begin to prepare for that day or some other day that may be more convenient to you. Let us make the collections on this day greater than at any subsequent time. This is one of the ways we bless God. Oh 1 the many hearts we can make happy by . the crumbs, which may fall from our table on Children's Day 1 The reaction is equally great upon us, for we are blessed as we bless others. God keep us in this effort for man's benefit and God's glory. , Sincerely yours, Joseph Perry, S. S. Missionary. Easter Entertainments. At the Royal Knights' Hall last Mon day night a grand entertainment was given, which was attended largely by the many visitors to our city. There was also an Anniversary Party at the Odd Fellows' Hall, at which quite a number was present. A concert was given at Cox Memorial Church, in which Misses Hattie Tucker, Maggie, Mary, Delia and Jeanette Phil lips, the Misses Hines, and others, took part. The program was a pleasing one. THE BACK-TAX BILL. The Finance Committee of the Board of Aldermen complained in their report because Representative James H. Young defeated the back-tax bill in the Legisla ture, as he should have done. In order that our readers may. fully understand the hardship and injustice. of this bill, which Mayor Russ, Alderman Drewry and others were urging too zealously be fore the Legislature, we print the entire bill. We knew 'that in these panicky times, when men by the hundreds in our city are out of employment, and when bankers and others are feeling the money stringency, that this was no time to be gin the collecting of back taxes for twelve years, and especially when many people have been, and are now, hardly able to pay their taxes for the present yjear. But what difference did it make with this Democratic city administration, who are drawing their salaries with regularity, what hardship their desire for more money to spend entailed upon the poor people who have to depend from day to day upon the little jobs of work that they catch up here and tnere. Notwithstand ing the hard times, the scarcity of work and the decline in values, the expenses of the city have not decreased one dollar, but upon the contrary, have been in creased until, for the year just ended, there is a deficit of $7,300 in paying cur rent expenses. How long can the city stand this kind of financiering? The remedy that the present Board has in mind is to increase taxes to meet expen ses rather than to decrease expenses. The taxes are now higher for city purposes than they ought to be. The remedy of the people snould be to defeat Mayor Russ and put in a man who will reduce expenses and thereby save the tax-payers in this great financial struggle. But to the bill, which is as follows: A Bill to be Entitled an Act to Authorize the Collection of Back Taxes Dae the City or Raleigh. Whereas. There is a large amount due the City of Raleigh, on account of back taxes from persons who failed to pay the taxes assessed against them during the years 1885, 1886, 1887, 1888, 1889, 1890, 1891, 1892, 1893, 1894 and 1895, by the Board of Aldermen of said City of Ral eigh: Now therefore The General Assembly of North Carolina do enact: Section 1. That the Board of Alder men of the said City of Raleigh are hereby authorized, empowered and directed to place upon a separate tax list for the year eighteen nundr d and ninety-seven of the names of all persons and corporations against whom taxes were assessed and have not been paid for the years named in the foregoing preamble, together with the sums assessed each of said years against said persons or corporations, and place the i ame in the hands of the City Tax-Collector of said city of Raleigh for the year eighteen hundred and ninety seven, and the same list shall have the effect of continuing in force the origi nal assessments, judgments and liens for the taxes due during the said j ears respectively; and the said tax-collector shall proceed to collect the said taxes at the same time, in the same manner and under the same laws as shall be in force for the collection of tax s due said city of Raleigh for the year eighteen hundred and ninety-seven, and shall account for said taxes as required by law for ac counting for regular taxes; Provided, that if any of said persons shall make affidavit that they have paid said taxes, taken receipts for the payment and lost the same, the names of said persons shall be stricken from said tax-list : Provided further, that no greater sum shall be im posed or collected than that which was levied and assessed for and during each of said years respectively. Section 2. That the provisions of this act shall apply to all cases where, by or der of the Board of Aldermen of said city, there have been sales of real estate for the collection of the taxes due for or dur ing said years, and where the sales have not been enforced. Section 3. That this act shall not be construed to relieve any city tax collect ors, their representatives or bondsmen from liability imposed by law for failure to collect and account for said taxes as required by law and the charter and or dinances of said city. Section 4. This act shall be in force from and after its ratification. Teachers of Wake County. Raleigh, N. C, April 3, 1897. Editor of the Gazette. Please allow me space to say to th teachers of Wake county that the Wake County Teach er's Association will convene at the Apex Normal and Collegiate Institute, Apex, N. C, on Saturday, May 15, 1897, at 9 o'clock a. m. The following programme has been ar ranged for the occasion: 1. How to improve our schools, Rev. M. W. Brown 2. Phonic and word method, W. H.

It is hoped that every teacher in the county will be present to participate in the proceedings. The people of Apex are hospitable, and will do all they can to make the occasion enjoyable. S. C. Dixon, Pres. J. A. Buff aloe, Member Com. W. H. Dowd, Sec. Death of Stephen Bailey. Death cannot make our souls afraid, If God be with us there; We may walk through the darkest shade And never yield to fear, - From. the community of Harmony, Virginia-North Carolina line, Bro. Ste phen Bailey was summoned to the bank of that silent stream April 18, 1897. While the gates of heaven stood ajar his immor tal soul leaped into glory. A few hours before his death he turned for the last time to his beloved wife and friends. To them he says: " My time is quite short; I must leave you all, but heaven is my home." And while the music of angels were singing over him " I know I am nearing the holy ranks Of friends and kindred dear, I feel the dews on Jordan's bank; The crossing must be near!" During which, apparently, he was looking into the city of Gold. He only lingered a few days. His age was forty -six years. Not only his family and church grieves his absence, but the com munity mourns the loss of one of its peaceful and prosperous citizens. J. K.

NOTICE. Latta Unsversity will be closed during the Christmas holidays for all the session for the purpose of rebuilding the build ings that were consumed by fire last May, and also additional buildings. The Uni versity is located in the village of Ooer lin, N. C, one and one-half miles west of the capitol building in the city. The lo cation is the very best for a school, being out of the busy city, but within easy reach by means of the electric streetcars. It is enough to say, that there has not been a single case of serious illness since the establishment of the school. ' Each dormitory is heated by stoves and hearths, so every necessary comfort is secured. The terms are very reasonable $7 50 per month. Those desiring to reduce their expenses by work will be taken at the lowest possible rates: young men $6.40 per month ; young women $5.40 per month; day students $1 per month. A small incidental fee will be charged. The school will reopen on the 7th day of October, 1897. Our purpose is to make it one of the largest schools in the South for the race. Law and Medicine will be added; The institution is wholly non sectarian in its religious instruction or influence. Tet earnest attention will be given to Bible study, applying its truths to daily life and conduct, that a thorough Christian character may be obtained. It is open to all students .of either sex. None but competent teachers will be em ployed. For further information, address the President, Rev. M. L. Latta, D. D.

This lady, who was stopping over in Raleigh with a friend, after taking breakfast with her, asked the question, "Where do you get such dtliciou coffee? I have never tasted anything like it." The prompt reply, "I buy from Stronach's," is no fairy tale. We could name the parties. That, of course, would be unpardonable. We can say that the lady from Washington car ried home a good big package of it. We would not give a penny for the opinion of a man. He sits down to a table and eats goat for lamb, sausage made from the overflowing population of East Raleigh' for pure corn-fed hog product, and his opinion of something good to eat is the rtflex of some blanker fool than himstlf that is, unless he has a wife to guide him. We once asked a Jewish butcher, who was trying to sell us some pork, how he reconciled bis conscience to selling it, he being an orthodox Jew, and Moses hav ing in a very decided manner denounced the eating of pork. He replied, "You Gentiles do not understand this thing. At the time Moses forbade the Jews to eat hog meat be bad a large flock of goats with him." We are not autocrats; we simply ad vertise the goods that we know are first class. We would like to sell them to people who appreciate such stock. We are especially particular in the mat ter of Flour, Butter, Coffee and Tea, and our large sales attest our knowledge of these most important articles of food.
