Wil liam, while at workreparuig the residence of Mr. Rufus Ham last week, fell off a scaffold tea feet high and received icjuries on his arm and leg which will keep him in bed several days.

C, Collier will deeply and sincerly sympathize with them in the death of their baby, which occurred last week at their home in this city. Such grief, however, is too sacred, too deep, too heart wringing for human effort to assuage, and consolation can only be found in the words of the Master himself, who said 'Suffer little children to come unto me and forbid them not, for of sueh is the Kingdom of Heaven." The Democratic members of the now board of Aldermen, and thanks to the last General Assem bly, they are all Democrats, met last week at the Mayor's office in caucus and decided to continue all the employees of the city in office, iust as they are now, with' tho ex ception of Mr. S.

RAILROAD AND HOTEL RATES On the Oecassioa ot the Teachers Assembly at Morehead. The following statement has been furnished by Superintendent of Public Instruction Meban in regard to tno rate; etc., at the approaching Teachers' Assembly at Morehead: "To Teachers, School Officers and Friends of Education. "This is to cull your special at tentioc to the sixteenth annual ses sion of tho North Carolina Teach ers' Assembly to bo held at More head City, N. C, June 13 to 18, 1S99. "Tho only meeting held in North Carolina this year that brings the entire educational body cf the State together is this assem bly, end this letter is sent to im press upon your mind the necessity and valuo of attend ng.

K. Itubi-isoil. Tho township Sunday School Convention was held at tho First Baptist church in this city Wed nesday evening, Tho rain pre vented any session at night, but the discussions in tho afternoon wero very interesting, end wo are sorry that all the Sunday School workers ia the city were not pres ent, and we regret that we have not in writing a copy of tho many strong points of interest given us by the different speakers. We ore able, however, to give in full, tho excellent paper read by Mr, Thos. R. Robinson, superintend ent of St. Paul, M. E. Sunday School, and we hope that every church member and parent in tho city, will read it. Hero it is: DIFFICULTIES OF THE TOWN SUNDAY SCHOOLS. (Taper Head by T. It. KoUnsoii.) My Friends: Tho subject assigned ma, as noted on the Programme, is tho ''Difficulties of Town Sunday Schools" But this is a misnomer, for town and country Sunday schools have the same difficulties the sama diffia culties in common, and these common difficulties ara traceable to the same common source, viz: the Home. The home ia the Sun day school's hope; without Chris tian homes the Sunday school is futile and its work is vain; for howevsr prayerfully and diligent ly we may sew the seed in the Sueday school, it must b3 nur tured in the home, else it will surely wither and die or be sadly dwarfed at best. Parents cannot ba too diligent in nurturing in the homo the work of the Sunday school. If we would have our children good citizens, good and abiding Chris tians, they must be taught at home. If we would have this country maintain her present proud position among the nations of the earth our children must be trained at home to reverence the name of the Almighty, in whom t':e fathers of this- country trusted and to whom the members cf the first Continental Congress prayed. Let regard for the Sun day school grow cold in tb.9 home and it will not be found warm in the hearts of the children. L3t indifference as to Sunday school attendance take root in the hearts of ih.3 parents and you will find the attendance at Sunday school failing off in proportion, and both parents and children becom ing lukewarm in faith, and when the faith of a people becomes ex tinguished dismtigration is sure to f oiiow. Romove all mention of Almighty God from law and statute, text book and primer, nd ycu paye the way for infidel ity to enter m. Preach the Gos pel only on Sundays and teach the Bible and rengion oniy in Sunday school and ycu will sure ly have a generation of material ists, atheists, indifferentists. The welfare of the Church and the Stato alike depends upon the ris ing generation. As Sunday school teacners it is our part to train the children who are committed to our care on Sundays into the religion and spirit of the Lord Jesus, but how can we do this permanently if the homes uuto which we return them when the day's lesson is over be not garnered with God's grace for their week's sojourn? It is the duty of the home to make Religion something to be ad mired, something to be revered, something to be loved. The family altar should be one of the child's earliest recollections of home, where the merits of the all prevailing sacrifices of the Sa viour of tho world were daily pleaded, and where tha comfort able Gospel of Christ was set forth in all its simplicity and all its beauty, a solace and strength for the present '' and a hope and incentive for time to come. So, the Difficulties of the Town Surnday Schools the difhsulti of all Sunday schools, do not arise in the schools per se, but they come to us from tho homes Get the- homos right and thi ounaay scnoois wui enow no difficulties save in providing room for the teeming children who will crowd thither to learn the 'Tords of Eterna.1 Life" and go forth to battle for the glory of God and the welfare of their fel low men. The same township officers were re-elected, to-wit: President G. S. Pritcbard. Executive Committee E. H Castex, W. R. Thompson, H. B. Parker' Jr, Tho Sunday school work like anything else must have money to run it buceesbfully. The State Association has requested - that every enrolled scholar in its borders donato 21 cents each to the Sunday School work, and we hopw that every school in this county will make a special effort to take up a large collection on the second Sunday in J une this year for that purpose and send the proceeds Jo Goo.

Lumberton, N, C, May 6 Ed Lowry, a nephew of Henry Barry Lowry, the famous outlaw of eastern Carolina, shot and killed Tucker Dail, at Scuffietown yess terday. The shooting was the result of a lawsuit over some land. It appears that Lowry went to the place where Dial was at work and ordered him to leave the premises. This Dial refused to do, and thereupon Lowry emptied a load of shot into Dial's chest, killing him instantly. Lowry then made his escape.
