he successfully conducted a ehoe store in
the city of Wilmington.
We chronicle with sorrow the death of
Mr. Joseph E. Sampson, who passed away
at his home in Wilmington week before
last. He had been in bad health for a

ried sadness to every part of the State.
He was a most excellent Christian gen
tleman and all those who knew him
loved him. Mr. Sampson had held many
offices of public trust with credit to him
self and the people whom he served.
The death of Major Charles D. Heartt
m a 1 . a
was a eorrowiuione to tne citizens or our
community regardless of color. There is
hardly one among us for whom at some
time he bad not done a kindness and that
too with a cheerfulness and willingness
that made men not only admire, but love
him. When he retired from the office of
Chief of Police, which he had held so

of a grateful pe ple and now that he is
no more, we all sincerely mourn with the
bereaved family. Peace to his ashes and
rest for his soul.

cal department of Shaw University, class

odd applicants to the examination he
stood first. This, peemmgly, has created
much notice. The President of the Board
has sent a letter asking that Mr. Vick
come to Jersey Ci'y to see him in order
that they may kuow one another better.
Mr. Vick is now druggist in Newark, N.
J. We hope to hear of other such records
from our colored young men.
An Appeal to the Churches, Sunday

Obituary.
Miller Miss Mary Miller died Mon
day, August 16th, at 3:10 o'clock. Miss
Miller was born January 1, 1860, and at
the time of her death was 37 years old.
She was a member of St. Paul's A. M. E.
Church. The funeral took place at St.
Paul's A. M. E. Church Tuesday, August
17. Rev. Leak conducted the services.
SMALL. Miss Martha Small, the fourteen-year-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Major Small, died Saturday, August 14,
at 9:05 o'clock. She was a meniotr of
the First Baptist Church. The funeral
services were held by Rev. Worlds at
Martin, Street B .p ist Church Sjnday,
August 15, at 4:30 o'clock. She leaves to
mourn their los3 a mother, thiee brothers
and two sisters.
Mr. E. J. Young, General Secretary
and Business Mat ager of the People's
Benevolent and R lief Association, was
in the city last week. While in the city
he paid the sick claims of James Wilson
and Mrs. Hannah Heah s. We bespeak
for the Association in this grand enter
prise noble success, for it has behind it a
man of push and strict ability. This is
the place we find the right man in the
right place. There is being places opened
up for the colored young men and women.
His work is being felt all over the State,
and has established many offices in the
various towns with about 75 or 100 agents
at work. The home office is stationed at
Charlotte, and all moneys paid into this
company stays within the borders cf the
grand Old North State, to increase her
wealth and prosperity.
There is a membership of about four or
five thousand, and there is no doubt as to
their keeping their promises.
Mr. Young delivered an eloquent ad
dress to an enthusiastic audience at the
Christian Church last Monday night.
The following young men have been
appointed deputies for Raleigh: Mr. J. A.
Young, Cannon street; Mr. J. H. Love,
Blood worth street; Rev. J. C. Love, S.
Blount street; Mr. C. L. Gary, Cabarrus
street.
Orator Bryan is not so busy these days
as he was at this time last year. Tne
New York Democrats bought his silence
and absence with a "lick and promise;"
the Ohio Democrats have given him no
tice that his presence will harm their
cause in that State; the Maryland Demo
crats have no place for him in view of
their straddling platform; and his own
managers have warned him that he is en
dangering their cause by keeping up his
talk upon a subject which everybody
knows ia becoming every day more unpopular.

Eastern Notes.
Our visit to the Eastern- Hospital last
week was a very pleas-ant one, and all
the courtesy that could be desired was
shown us by Mears. P. A. High, A. B.
Howell, L. D. Herring, H. C. Crudup. E.
F. Faison, J. A. Short, F. J Shaw, Fied.
Hines, T. II. Hinton, Mr. Vail, Mr. and
Mrs. Moore, Mr. and Mrs. Isham Dunn,
Mr. and Mrs. Spencer A. Best.
Thie institution for this class of unfor
tunate humanity is kept in excellent con
dition, every department is in the veiy
best sanitary condition that possibly could
be had. All the wards are looked after
and kept neat and clean. At the request
of the attendants in charge of the wards,
Dr. Miller has purchased beautiful pic
tures, which weie hung on the walls of
the hallway in the different wards. This
is greatly admired by the patients. Mr,
P. A. High carried us through the dining
hall, and first and second wards in the
male department. In the dining hall are
four long tattles, the first t the light en
tering the hall is occupied by the fmt
ward patients, tbe best and quietest pa
tients. The seco d, those of the eecond
ward; the third, those of the third ward;
and the fourth, ihose of the fourth ward,
the worst that are allowed to come to the
table. Rults are posted in all the hall
ways; and with, the strict observance,
everything is kept clean and healthy.
The Asylum is just abut full. Great
credit is "due the attendants for their
faithful and diligent care of the patients.
Dr. Milier is having some improvement
made to the healing apparatus prepara
tory to i he wiuter.
Miss Piiacilla Williams, Mr. and Mrs.
Isham Dunn, and Mr. and Mrs. P. A.
High are among those of Raleigh who are
employed in the Institution.
The Gazette is read by a large portion
of the attendants, and is highly spoken
of by them.
Rocky Mouut Grits.
The election last Tuesday was quiet
indeed. This would remind one that no
boodle could be handled, heoce no politi
cians on hand for favorites.
Mr. S. F. C. Hester attended the Fire
men's Association at Winston last week.
Mr. W; R. Harrison rt turned to Wash
ington, D. C, last week.
We return thanks to Dr. E. E. Smith,
Principal of State Normal School at
Goldsboro, for circulars explaining the
advantages to be had at this school for
the ensuing term. The very name of
Dr. Smith being at the head of this inii
tution assures success throughout. We
have had the opportunity of receiving
his instruction, and as instructor in the
educational line he is without a peer. We
hope great succers will attend his work,
and advise all of our friends who con
template making teaching their profes
sion to attend this school.
Our ci izens should not under any cir
cumstances throw any hindrances in the
way to retard the consolidation of the
two public tchools on the Nash side. We
must ha e a good school and let every
one strive for this one point. Let us not
cowl over the location, but go right to
work and let the school be located on the
present school site in Little Raleigh. It
seems that some of our people had rather
for our children to grow up in perfect
ignorance than for themselves not to
have things as they want it. This is a
wrong spirit. We should co-operate for
our best good, whether we get our wishes
or not. Kocky Mount is witnout any
school facilities whatever on the part of
the colored people, and now we can see
that by consolidating these two schools
we can have better facilities in every par
ticular, and 8 3 the white race is moving
in this direction it will bring reproach
upon ua for any action on our part to re
tard such a movement. We again ask,
let harmony prevail and a good school be
established.
Mr. W. W. Lawrence, Secretary of the
New Berne Fair, was in our town Iat
Saturday, and a more affable man we
have never met. We hoi our people
will attend the Fair this year in large
numbers.
We are sorry to note the death of Mr.
Edward Black, a very prt misiug young
man. who recently came from Hender
son here.
Mast r Plummer Armstrong has been
quite sick, but we are g'ad to note that
he is out again.
We extend our sympathy to our friend
Mr. M. M. Hines and relatives in their
sad bereavement in the lots of his faith
ful mother.
Prof. Baxter gave a -very enjoyable
musical entertainment by his inusicil
school las: Monday night. The singing
was superb, considering the time the
school has been in operation. We wish
Mr. Baxter the greaest success in his
work.
Miss Theodosia Home has returned
home from Tarboro, where she has been
visiting friends.
Mr. P. L. Edwards went to Gaston last
Saturday to visit his mother and rela
tives. Do you believe in better and higher
schools, if bo, why not cons HJate. We
must improve on this line.

for the purpose of rebuilding the budd
ings that were consumed by tire last May,
and also additional buildings. The Uni
versity is located in the village of Ooer

cation is the very best for a school, being
out of the busy city, but within easj

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

lowest possible rates: young men $6 40
per month ; young women $5.40 per
month; day students $1 per month. A
