Miss Ella Higgs, afur spending some time in tbe city, returned to Noifolk last week. We thank her for a cash renewal to the Gazette while here. Governor Rusntll returned to the city last Monday from Wrightsville whence he went lust Friday to npend a day or two and eDjoy the ocean breezi;. Catch .Vm alive !

At last accounts the man who was shot on Hargett Street Monday morning was getting on as fceat he can. He is yet alive. Tbe doctors think there ate blight chances of his recovery. Children's Day exercises were held at the Christian Cnurch last Sundav night. Quite a large crowd attended. Tne pro gram was long and well executed. Mr. Henry L. Alston delivered an address. Do ycu like icecream? To make ice cream you, of course, must have ice. Britton Peaice tells ice as cheap as any one in tbe city. His neb are the cheap est. You'll find him at 211 South Wil mingtoa St. f Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Davis, Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Watts, Messrs. Ntleon O'Kelly, Merrimou Wortham, John H. Branch and Miss Patiie M. Love left for Wash ington City last Monday via Norfolk on the Triple Link Excursion. . Id last week's Gazette we made the statement that Mr. Henry L. Alston was Superintendent of the Blount Street Bap tist Sunday-school, which he is not. He, as we intended to say, superintended tbe exercises for Children's Day. Mr. Charles A. Bcnnedict is in the city His home is in Warsaw, N. Y., but hav" ing been advited by his physician to come South, he selected the "City of Oaks" as the place for himtelf to spend a few months, inhaling our health giving, in vigorating air. A row occurred on Newbern Avenue last Saturday night, in which Mr. Allen Hogan and Mr. H. W. Brooks were ihe leaaing characters. No one was seriously hurt, though glasses and ice-shavers filled the air for a while with a fusilade that was dangerous. Mr. Henry L. Alt-ton, formerly local editor of the Gazette, ban opened a sum mer scho 1 at Blount St. Baptist Church. The number of scholars enrolled on tbe opening day was forty-five. The primary "clasws are taught by Miss Laura E. Ed wards. Mr. Alston and Miss E Iwards are both of Shaw University, a fact which alone recommends them to the pulic as teachers of ability. Send your children the youngest of school age and the oldest. In our editorial of June 12th, touching the postmasteiship at Kinston, we stated that Mr. J. C. Hargett would be the next postmaster. Of course it was a supposi tion, based upon the fact that he was en doised by the Congressman of that dis trict, and it was not our intention to mis represent any of the leaders or any one by sayiny the feeling toward Mr. Hargett was said to be favorable by those who weie sup posed to be his opposers. As I understand it, there were some who were fur other men who were candidates for the office, but they had no bitter feelings toward Mr. Hargett, should he be succensful in getting the place. So far as the Gazette or any one of its staff is concerned, we have no interest in the matter one way or the other. Death. . On Wed net day night of last week Mrs. Lizzie Dune ton Smith, the devoted and beloved wife of Mr. Ham S. Smith, de parted this life after a long though pa tient illness. Right here let us pay a tribute to the heroism, loyalty, devotion and love of Mr. Smith who, notwithstanding the fact that he knew she could not live, united with her in marriage a few months ago. That was an act of true love. Mrs. Smith had been for years, although quite young, an active and zealous memter of the First Baptist Church and a punctual and faithful teacher in the Sunday-school of said church as long aa her health would permit. She was a faithful Christian woman, who was pure in life, humble in spirit, beautiful in character and exemp lary in her godly walk. Her works of love and self denial will long be remem bered by those among whom she labored. Siithfully and patiently did she toil and bor enduring the cross, despising the shame for the joy that was set before her." A kind, indulgent, affectionate and dutiful wife, a true friend and a ripe Christian has passed into tbe glory land, leaving many besides her immediate family to mourn their loes. May grace and strength equal to the trial be given to the bereaved husband and family, and may thTe be a happy reunion to the members of this family in the Home that Jesus has prepared for His people. ' "Pre cious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints." The First Baptist S. S. Excursion. On Thursday morning of last week, from 2 until 4:30 o'clock a. m., people in twos, fives, ten and twenties could be seen wending their way to the unioa depot to join tne First Baptist Sunday School on its annual pic nic cxcuision, which was to be enjojed this year in Charlotte which, in fact, aa in name is really the Queen City. Eagerly and anx iously awaiting the excursionists were two of the large, powerful and swift en gines of the Southern Railway, which had ai their throttles engineers Freeland and Lynch, with firemen Donald and Evans, at their posts of duty and keeping steam high up preparatory for the word "go." The trains were in charge of Conductors Weaver and Smith, with flagmen Gregg and Baucom to assist them. To see that everything was promptly executed and properly conducted. Train-master Wil liams, of Greensboro, was on hand to give his personal attention to the matter. To expedite matters and save as much time as pobsib e, Ticket Agent Sturgis had met the charteiers the night before and received a large part of tbe money, which was to be paid for the trains, ana was up bright and: early to receive the balance, all of which he had by five o'clock. In this connection we will say that the Southern is fortunate in securing the ser vices of such an efficient, accurate and courteous gentleman as Agent Sturgis is, and he is now one of tne must popular men who has ever shoved a ticket. Promptly at 5 o'clock the word was given and the first section consisting of eight cars drawn by engine 827, began to slide over the rails at tbe rate of forty miles an hour. This seemed to annoy engine 826, which was coupled to nine cars, but at 5:20 she too was given the word, which she received with joy and at once began to shorten the distance between herself and section one. Amid tbe shouts and cheers of 1,200 happy excursionists, these two trains began their uninterrupted race from Raleigh to Charlotte, coveting the distance of 175 miles. The right of way was given to these two flying mot sters, and they passed by patseuger trains, carrying the U. S. mail, standing on side tracks, as unceremoniously as tuey did the many freight trains in similar posi tion. The run of eighty miles from Raleigh to Greensboro was run with a blight gain in favor of the second section. Engine 827, in charge of tbe tame ciew, made the run for tbe first seciion from Greens boro to Charlotte, but engine 82(5 was given a rest at Greensboro, and the ewilt fly ing engine 316 huched up to the second section. At once it was said by those who knew that the second section would catch the first, and sure enough when st c tion one got to Concord se etion two also arrived, and had to stay there until the first section could get out of her way. Every one on the second section can tes tify that 316 is in reality a flyer. Engineer Kinely was at tbe throttle witu fire man James Poe, of Raleigh, keeping her hot, and of course, as Pe was hauling his own people, he did not intend that she disposed to do so. His reputation as a should lay down on him even if bhe was fireman, which is good in these parts, was at stake and well did he sustain it. Engineer Kinely seems to be known as the "running man," and all people along the line bid him go ahead as he passed them. The track being clear all along the line there was nothing to prevent the trains from running, and take our word for it that they did run. Trainmaster Williams, who was on board, and all the railroad men, enjoyed the flying as much as the excursion iais. As soon as the first section arrived at Charlotte and emptied her load of happy humanity (section two pulled in and did the same. Revs. Davis, Williamson and Dr. M. T. Pope then took charge of the excursion ists and conducted them to the many street cars there in waiting, which were soon filled to overflowing, which carried the people to Latta Park, which had oeen kindly given to the local committee for the occasion, and returned at once for the others who could not go on the first trip. Upon arrival at the park, we found ice water in abundance, which had been es pecially prepared for us, and soon there after brethren Pope, Davis and William son began to dispensd sweet and cooling lemonade in plentiuus showers to the large number present, and a little later cal ed us again to partake of the most delicious ice cream in two colors, which it has ever been our pleasure to taste. Tnere was a bountiful supply of everything, and in that cool, shady part wiih its two fine springs, no one could fail to be happy. The excursionists amused themselves in different ways at the park until about 5 o'clock, when they began to return to the depot so as to be in time for the return home. The Queen City Drug Store owned by colored men and Dr. J. B. Alexander's drug store were opened to the visitors, where they, could getNall the cooling wa ters that they want- d. Our school is in debted to the Sunday-echoola and congre gations of brethren Davis, Pope and Wil liamson for much of the pleasure that we had while in Charlotte and stand ready to reciprocate at their convenience. Capt. Ryder and Capt. Verrnon, of the South ern, had things in readiness for our re turn trip. Our people were delighted at Charlotte, and especially the kind and courteous manner in which tbey were received by the people of that prosperous and progressive city. Our thanks for the trip and the cheap rate thereof are due entirely to, and are hereby tendered to, Messrs. H. W. Miller and R. E. L. Bunch, the two efficient, progressive and busi ness like chief clerks in the offices of Col. Andrews and Col. Turks, respectively. Miss Addie Williams, the beautiful, ac complished and fully 'up to-date" local editor of the Charlotte Observer, speak ing of the excursionists among other things, says: " The excursion was run under the aus pices of the First Baptist Sunday school, colored, and was managed by James H. Young. "Five street cars weie lined up at the Southern station," awaiting the crowd. Each came up town loaded. The major ity of the excursionists went immediately to Dilworth, where they weie taken in hand by the Ebenezer and the First Bap tist Sunday-schools, and treated to lemon ade 150 gallons and ice cream 25 gal lons until they cried: 'Full enough.' "The day was spent in enjoying the pleasures of the picnic grounds, riding on the cars, treating at colored restau rants and conclaves on the streets. It was tbe most remarkable col red excur sion that ever visited the city. Notwith standing the numbers, there was not a drunk, not a fight, not a loud word, not an arrest. It was a well behaved, genteel crowd. The behavior reflected credit on the church, on Baleigh, and on the ex cursionists themselves. "The first section pulled out, on the re turn, at 7:30, tbe second one later," For which-kind words, we make our obeisance to miss Addie with thanks. At 7 o'clock p. m. and five minutes there after the two sections, with all on' board, were on their return home with happy recollections of the Queen City, and the hospitable people thereof and praises for brethren Davis, Pope and Williamson,, who had contributed so much to their pleasure, and the committees of ladies and gentlemen of their respective church es, who had so kindly assisted them. We bad a speedy and safe trip for which we thank Trainmaster Williams, Conductors Weaver and Smith, Flagmen Gregg and Baucom, Engineers Freeland, Lynch and Kinely, and Firemen Donald, Evans and Poe, and by way of remark will say that each of these is the right man in the right place. Messrs. Cobb and lieait will ac cept our thanks for kindnees and courtes ies shown. The excursion was a grand success in all respects and our people are loud in their praises of Charlotte, its people and the Southern Railway management. Both sections arrived home by one o'clock, and tbe excursionists were all happy, and wishing for another such cheap and safe trip - j Rocky Mount Grits. Prof. X M. Epps, of Tarboro, passed through en route home during the week. He had been attending the executive committee meeting . appointed by the State Teachers' Association at Raleigh. Dr. A. W. Pegues remained over quite awhile while waiting for connection of the Raleigh train Friday night. The Doctor is enthused on the local school tax question, as every other colored man should be. Mr. Charlie Meadows and Miss Anna Bunn were united in the holy bonds of matrimony last Wednesday night. We wish for them a long and prosperous life. Miss Dora Barnes and Mr. William Red, of St. Louis, N. C, were in town during the week. Prof. C. W. Battle, of Battleboro, passed through last Saturday. Miss Barrett, of Raleigh, passed through Saturday. Mies Fannie Vick, of New York, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Vick. She is a charming young lady, and, oh! how the boys wish for a longer stay. Mr. and Mrs. Matthew Whitaker went to Tarboro last Saturday. Colored men of Nash county, you should bestir yourselves on the school tax election in August. We should not think it will be a walk-over for us. We will find a heavy opposition, and in this contest we shall easily find our true friends. ; - -:.- A part of our base-ball team went to Wilson to play her team last Friday. The score was 19 to 15 in favor of Wilson. There appeared in the Argonaut, a paper printed in Rocky Mount, A Ques tion" relative to the postmastership, and signed "Enquirer." We give, in sub stance, some of ihe question, as it is termed: "First. Did the many PopulLts and Republicans whose names appeared on a petition recommending H. Frank Ban es, of Naf-h county, to the Legisla ture for State Librarian know that the said petition would be ued later on to urge the appointment of I. D. Hargett as postmaster of Rocky Mount? Do they approve it now? Secondly. If said pe tition, without the knowledge of the signers, has been so used, does it entitle Mr. Barnes to a clerkship in Washington for what he calls a smart trick? Thirdly. If Mr. Hargett accepts the petition, knowing the fraud it bears, can he serve in the office with a clear conscience to himself and the administration that ap points him?" To our mind and opinion the party who wrote the above must be a clear ignoramus or a defeated aspirant for some office. In the first paragraph, it seems to us, the writer wishes to make the impression that even though Mr. Birnes lives in the Fourth District and Prof. Hargett in the SecoLd District, where the office is located and the ap pointing power existed, that the former was more entitled than the latter. Upon the face of the s atement, which says the petition was for a State appointment and then after being defeated (we presume by the influence of the "enquirer"), it was reverted into a National appoint ment, which is a rare thing for one peti tion to ask for two situations. It goes to show the weakness of the argument. We think that Mr. Barnes has more knowledge than "Enquirer," from the fact he found that it was a waste of time and notified bis friends of the same and withdrew. He also notified Prof. Har "gett. But "Enquirer" wanted to im press the Populibt that they were being duped by, as he styled it, Mr. Barnes' smart trick. So far as this reaches, the Populist only can demand recognition from the State administration on account of coalition on the State ticket, while no coalition was entered into on the Na tional ticket. Mr. Barnes, though, is a Republican, we think. To be brief, the whole argument is all wind, blown from an emp y trumpet. As to the third and last paragraph we will not comment, for it is purely a waste of time. We simply mention tbe whole matter so the readers of The Gazette in this community could see and guess who "Euquirer" is. His effort created no sensation whatever, as he thought for. He is a pump without a valve. Dr. E. E. Smith, of Goldsboro, passed through en route to Washington, D. C, last Saturday. Mr. C. C. Mclntyre went to Goldsboro last week. His best girl was there. You can hear him hum now a-days; We think the date was arranged. Ah, ha! We return thanks for an invitation to attend the marriage of Miss Mary E. Lucas to Mr. E. T. Wooten, of Tarboro, on the 3l8t inst. Dr. Reaves, of Newbern, passed through from Washington, D. C. last week. He told the Grit man that he had the assur ance of Mr. W. W. Lawrence teing ap pointed Collector of Customs at New bern. Newbern should feel rejoiced at such a recognition of one of her leading colored citizens. It is being falsely charged here that President McKinley is opposed to the recognition of colored men, or rather opposed to the appointment of any colored man to any important trust. 1 he same untrue charge is made that Congress man White and Recorder Cheatham are only appointing those of their family connections to the higher places in their gift. Such argument only weakens the one that makes it, for the people know whereof it comes. These two distin guished leaders have done just what any consistent and self-respecting man would have done, and nothing more. Our baseball team, together with the Excelsior Band, went down to Nashville last .Wednesday, to play tbe Nashville team. The game was called at 5 o'clock, and Nashville at once began to kick; how ever, the game proceeded until dark. At the fifth inning the score stood 8 to 2, in favor of Rocky Mount, this was at sun set, whereupon Rocky Mount asked that the game be called off. Nashville kicked furiously on the sixth inning, and the citizens of Nashville, both white and col ored, became very desperate, and began to block the ball. Little boys were sent out in the field to block tbe ball and throw in to Nashville, but the umpire counted everything in sight. Rocky Mount was helpless, having lost the guide, and Nashville having the umpire and citizens all in their' favor, took the game. The sixth inning for Rocky Mount was played after it was bo dark that the ball could not be seen. Having all the disadvantages and giving Nashville everything, the score was J2 to 10, in favor of Nashville; while the rightful score was 10 to 4, in our favor, aud that is what we claim. Nashville has been invited to play a satis factory and honest game here, and if her team is true blue, they will not delay, but come right along and get their medicine. Our citizens will nut be asked to block balls and bulldoze for our team, but will use every possible effort to have an hon est and fair game. Miss Mary Joy ner is so cheerf ul ! Why ? Because he hasn't so many best girls now. We hope our colored people wiil take heed from the recent excursion and not patronize any except those manged by our race. - ' W. C. A.
