Island Two Undertakings of
the Association.
The third annual nicotine of the State
Literary and Historical Association was
held last night at the Olivia Raney
Library, President H- G. Connor pre
siding. The meeting proved not only in
teresting and instructive, but served to
stimulate the association to greater ac
tivity. It has been determined to ask
aid of the General Assembly in the effort
to properly celebrate the teir-centnnial
of the landing of Sir Walter Raleigh on
Roanoke Island.
On the stage with President Connor
were Governor C. B. Aycock, Secretary
of State J. Bryan Grimes, Treasurer It.
It. Lacy, Superintendent of Public In
struction J. Y. Joyner, Bishop Joseph
Blount Cheshire, Dr. Geo. T. Winston,
Prof. D. H. Hill, Prof. H- G- Stoekard,
Rev. T. X. Ivey, Mr. J. W. Bailey, Prof.
E. P. Moses, and Prof. W. L. Poteat.

After this “America” was sung, the en
tire audience joining in the patriotic air.
Judge Connor, as president of the asso
ciation, delivered his annual address in j
his usual interesting and impressive
manner. Throughout it was filled with
words of wisdom relative to the work
which should be conducted by the asso- :
ciation.
Reviewing the work of the association
during the past year he paid tribute to
the earnest efforts of Secretary Feihl
and the executive committee, lie said ,
that two undertakings had received the
especial attention of the members.
First, at the suggestion of the patriotic
General Julian S. Carr, a successful
movement to erect a statue in this city
in memory of Sir Walter Raleigh, the
money to the realized by penny contribu
tions from the people, especially the chil
dren of the State. He recommends the
increase of activities on the part of mem
bers of the association and pleads for the
construction of this statue of this sol
dier, scholar and patriot.
Second, the celebration in proper man- 1
w nor of the anniversary of the real settle- 1
ment of Roanoke Island. This, Presi
dent Connor says, developed into a
greater undertaking than the association
at first supposed it would be. During
the past summer a meeting of importance
was held on the island, at which ('hair
man W. D. Prudcn, of the committee in
charge, made on interesting report. The
committee was much gratified by the in
terest manifested especially by the peo
ple cf Dare ar.d other Sound counties.
"The undertaking.” said Judge Connor,
“last, in the death of Major Graham
Daves, one of its noblest and most active
supporters, a man of finest sentiment and
a high type of the best citizenship of
North Carolina.”
The future work of the association, in *
connection with the celebration of the
settlement of Roanoke Island, Judge
«'ornor said, will bo conducted by a cor
poration to be chartered bv ibis General
Assembly and aid and encouragement '
will l>e asked of that body. As to the
extent of the aid to be asked so the
legislature, Judge ('minor did not speak-
Judge Connor referred to the celebra
tion during the oast year at Guilford
Rattle Ground. He referred to the un
veiling of the monument to Nathaniel
Macon and to the gratification which
should be manifested at the completion
of Dr. W. 12. Dodd’s “Rife of Nathaniel
Macon.”
“North Carolina Day,” he said, “was
observed in many cities and towns in the
State during the past year and ii is the
belief of those cvho have watched the
progress of this movement that the cus
tom will grow until within a few years
the day is generally observed.”
Judge Connor said that it was his j
Hon. Henry Groves Connor.
and hope for this consummation of their
work. If this association should be able
in any way to contribute to this end it
would indicate its right to exist, and to
ask the aid and encouragement of all who
love the Old North State.”
Col. F A. Olds then made his report
on*the Hall of History, a department of
the State Museum, which has been made
the most interesting feature of that valu
able depository of valuables- The col
let tion of antiquities, the Revolutionary,
Civil and Spanish-American War relics
related to North Carolina being of won
derful value. This report was given in
full in a recent issue of the News and
Observer.
Superintendent of Public Instruction
Joyner read a valuable paper on “Rural
Libraries in Our State,” pointing out
the benefit derived from, these institu
tions. He brought to the attention of
the association the extent of this work
and is progress during the past year
i Mrs. Charles McKimmon rendered a
i vocal solo, “O Fair, O Sweet and Holy,”
| by Otto Cantos.
Mrs. McKimmon was the recipient of
an encore, to which she responded with
“Doris,” Do Kovetni, rendered in her
customary gracious and < harming man
ner.
Prof. D. H. Hill read an interesting
ps: per cn Historical Publications in
North Carolina during 1902. ITof. Hill
made reference to the work of Chief
Justice Walter Clark, Dr- Bassett, of

Dr. J. P. Alexander, S. A. Ashe, and A-
M. Waddell, besides the publishers of
various pamphlets. Prof. Hill said two
things are necessary to foster this litera
ture—buy and pay cash for worthy publi
cations, read and commend them to
others.
; Prof. Henry Jerome Stoekard read an
interesting article on “Some North Caro
line Verses During the Past year.” He
j made allusion to the work of the
j lamented Theo. H. Hill, of this city.
I Reference to the work of John Henry
1 Boner, Miss Armfield, J. C. McNeill,
pleasure to attend the last pilgrimage of
the Society of Colonial Dames to St.
Philip's church at Old Brunswick, where
he witnessed the placing of a tablet in
memory of the heroes of the lower Cape
Fear.
Charles Francis Adams, in his address
to the Viueriean Historical Society, said
that unless a society had an object it
had better disband. Judge Connor used
ihis as an introduction to that portion
of his address treating on organization,
lie recommended the republication, from
time to time, of such rare and scarce
books as ])ertain to the State’s history.*
He said it is gencrail supposed that we
are poor in this respect, but after per
sonal research he had made rich find
ings.
Prof. Hart has said that the aim of
this work is to open a highway to visit
our forefathers and such work as is being
done today will boos the greatest value
to future students of our State's history.
He paid high tribute to Alderman’s
“Life and Times of William Hooper,”
McGee’s “Gov. Graham,” Battle’s “Gov.
Vanee,” Avery's “General Hill,” Cox’s
“General Ramseur,” London's “Bryan
Girimes” and others. He thanked the
North Carolina Booklet Company for the
valuable publications which they are
issuing and paid compliment to the Dixon
Letters being published by Dr. J. O.
Carr, of Wilmington. No field of letters
is so inviting. Candid, honest criticism is
necessary and the matter published
should be held up to a high standard. He
made reference to Dr. Bassett’s Quarter
ly as of great value.
In conclusion Judge Connor said:
“May wo not indulge the hope that in
the near future the efforts of all the
patriotic writers and gleaners in this
field may find a rich reward in the forth
coming history of our State.”
“That some son's devotion and patience
may gather the fragments and weave
into history the settlement, organization,
growth and developeinent of this grand
old Commonwealth. There are those who
have labored and waited with patience

TO THE ROOTS.
A School Boy Digs Down to Find Food to
Build Him Right.
A good, straightforward letter was re
cently sent by a bright clever youth
which shows his ability to go to the
bottom of a trouble and rectify it.
He says, “I attended High School for
three years but made little progress. I
did not enjoy good health; my food was
not. properly digested; this caused head
ache and hence I could not study. 1
tried taking exercise in the foot-ball
laid hut was unable to stand it as it al
ways increased my headache.
During the summer holidays I began
eating Grape-Nuts and tho benefit was
immediate, the headache stopped, my
food digested properly so that I had no
more stomach trouble, my general health
improved, my weight, increased and my
Lrain was clear and bright.
The result was that this summer I
procured Junior Leaving and Junior Ma
triculation Standing. lalso took my
place on the foot-hall team as half-back
and played in all the games of 1901.
This wonderful increase in mental and
physical health T attribute to no other
cause than the nourishmenl I got from
Grape-Nuts. I recommend them to
everybody who desires health. I am only
a boy of 17 years, hut my weight is 118
pounds and this weight was procured
solely by the use of Grape-Nuts.” Name
given by Postum Cereal Co., Battle
Creek. Mich.
There is a reason why Grape-Nuts
should correct a delicate, physical, or a
sluggish mental condition. The food is
highly nutritious and is predigested so
that it helps the digestive organs to as
similate other food. It is also rich In
the phosphates that go directly to make
up the delicate gray matter of brain and
nerve centres.
DEMOCRATS MAY HAVE SFNAK R
Rock-Ribbed Republican District of Yancey,
Madison and Mitchell.
News from the election for Senator to
succeed the late Senator Zeb Wilson, in
the Yancey-Mitchcll-Madison district is
that the Democrats have carried Yancey
by 180 majority. In Madison the Repub
licans have 20 majority with two town
ships to hear from. It is probable they
did not vote. There was no vote in
Mitchell county. If the Democrats win
in that rock-ribbed Republican listriet
they can carry the whole earth.
Had a Gocd Crowd,
“A Country Girl” was given again last
night for the benefit of the Masonic
Temple Fund. There was a good au
dience, and the work of our local talent
was highly appreciated.
