D.. pastor of the Freemason Street Baptist Church of Norfolk, Va. It was a splendid one. and was heard by a Krcat congregation which filled the college auditorium, which heard a powerful sermon, out of the usual lines. " His text was In the .ast words of the "Sermon on the Mount." Dr. Blackwell began by declaring that we are all builders for eternity, and that Jesus Is the Master architect to instruct us in the building of character. The fundamentals for such funding he 4 declared to.be the four corner stones of the Rock of Ages. "Blessed are the. poor In , spirit." "Blessed are the meek," and "Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness." four utterances of our Lord that relate us to God. for they tlo not relate to other men. and it Is "Blesied "are the- merciful." "Blessed are the pure in heart," and "Blessed are. the peacemakers." three utter ances which cover the whole realm of human relationship. In the building Dr. Blackwell said the Ilrst story should be. "Blessed are ye when ye are - persecuted for righteousness' sake." and the battle begins as soon as the tirst story of the heart house Is up. The second story is Christ-likeness. "Blessed are ye when ye are persecuted for my name's sake." The next story Is for a saving, element in the univHse. "For ye are the salt of the earth." The salt I the element that saves the material of the earthly from purefac- : : i 1 Ko tired Brains when Grape-Nuts food is used. FACT!!! v Bread dyspepsia la. common. It af fects the bowels because white bread is nearly all starch, and starch Is di gested In the intestines, not In the stomach proper. Up under the shell of the wheat ber ry Mature has provided a curious de posit which is turned into diastase when It is subjected to the saliva and to the pancreatic juices In the human intestines. This diastase is absolutely necessary to digest starch and turn it into grape, sugar, which is the next form: but that part of the wheat berry makes dark tlour. and the modern miller cannot readily sell dark flour, so nature s val uawivr uitmer is inruwn uui auu tuc human system must handle the starch as best It can. without the help that .Nature Intended.

' ' ; "' ; -"; In this way the starchy part is trans. formed Into grape-sugar in a perfectly natural manner, without the use of chemicals or any outside, ingredients. The little sparklnar crystals of grape sugar can be seen on the pieces of Grape-Nufs. This food therefore is nat urally p re-digested and its use li place of bread will quickly correct the trou bles that have been brought about by the too free . use of starch in the food, and that is very common in the human race today; . .

Just as , the: great . salt sea . puri nes every streamvthat carries putre faction into it, and the primary object ox. our oeing ' is to save and puriry. And then the toomost story "Ye are the light of the-world." That after all Is the limit of the Chrisian s pow er in the world, for light is the ac tive agency of life Itself. In sliscusing liicht Dr. Blackwell said rnat it Implied sacrifice and combustion, as there must be con sumption before the light shines, and for a man's life to give light it must be lighted of God for "The soul of nan is the canaie or tne ira. ana whenever the fire of conversion touch es the wick and tallow of your llf you become a candle of the Lord. The devil has never vet succeeded In blowing out a light, but he has succeeded admirably in hiding lights under bushels, declared the preacher. saying In this connection "The devil's cooner shop making beer barrels and whiskeycbarrels is only a side isue. If I could break up his cooperage of bushels and roll them all down hill, he could keep his whiskey and leer barrels, for he could do no harm with them, emphasizing his remarks by declaring to the young women: "After all. your coinlnn to school Is to get your bodies and brains made Into candlesticks, and a pair of snuf fers to keep the light bright, so that you may shine 'for the Lord." Governor Glenn's Literary Address. The greatest audience of commence ment ever assemlr-d In the col lege auditorium last night to hear Governor R. B. Glenn, whose coming had been looked forward to with Interest. He was given an ova tion as he entered and there was great applause all through his address. The audience first sang "My Country Tis of Thee." and then Governor Glenn was fittingly introduced by President J. M. Rhodes. In his address Governor Glenn held up to the young women the need for the best Christian life for womanhood, declaring as he began his remarks that his interest in young people that he came after much loss of sleep and from the delivery of an address at Peace Institute during the morning, following his arrival in Raleigh from Charlotte where he had also spoken but he came because he was more and more convinced that the future of the State was dependent upon its youth, and hence he came to urge to lives of nobleness and service. , Then the Governor In splendidly elo quent words: urged upon the young women to develop themselves 'mental ly,, spiritually, physically, and to make the most of the days at senooi. lie declared the greatest thing to be spir itual development that to be great and of service people must be good. He inveighed against society butter fly life, the slovenly woman, the "wo men's rights" class, and all those whose lives did not strive for that of an Ideal Christian womanhood, paying a tribute to daughters, wives and mothers. Before closing Governor Glenn spoKe of North, Carolina's grt-at progress In material and moral life, that now it has more mills than any State in the union, and In number of looms and spindles Is third. In 1900 the State was second In Illiteracy, now It Is seven teenth. Last year the State spent over $2,000,000 to educate the boys and girls of the State, while fifteen years ago $268,000 was spent. In the moral growth he pointed out that the State advaoses rapidly, for seventy counties- of the ninety-seven have adopt-. d adsolute prohibition of the accursed liquor traffic, and the other twenty seven are reaching out towards this ell advocated that an end be put to the liquor traffic, and did this desnlte letters that came to him that told mm ha by his course hme would never again get office in North Carolina, de claring that If he must get office bv disregarding the pfayers and tne wel fare of those he loved, he would pre fer to live the balance of his life un known on his little farm in Rocking ham county. Events of Commencement.

Miss Bessie Baynes of Gordonton, was 'the harming toast mistress. Miss Emma Myrlck of Littleton welcomed the alumnae. That little lady welcomed her predecessors hame again In words that must have made them exceeding ly glad to be here. ,"Our Alma Ma ter" was responded to by Rev. Alpheus McCuIlen. pastor of the Fifth Street Methodist church. Wilmington, whose daughter is one of. this year's gradu ates. The alumnae .were cleverly toast ed by Miss eBatrice Anderson, of Hali fax. Miss Notie York, of Wllllam ston spoke the regrets of the Sopho mores In seing the Seniors leave.

Mtss Dora Mav Carraway of Goldsboro. president of the class, slowly furled the banner. while Miss Juanita Saunders Boyce or Rich Square, the class secretary, re cited the farewell ode to the. flag of 06. composed by Miss Hattle Green of Beaumont the incident being a touch rag one.

Shorpe. - ; . l&ursfora CHEEREDTHE FIGHT Japanese Lanterns Cause Two Trials and a Mix-up. Justice Separka' court made grist for its own mill yesterday In a House Creek Township drama, irom public school district No. 2 of Wake county, which progressed from a trial of a young prank to hard words and open blows In front even of the temple of justice itself. Having settled one dispute for the jood of the country, the court ad journed from hl.s office to that of the register of deeds, only to be recalled by the sounds of actual war to sit in judgment a pro. in uioi two witnesses In the trial which had juxt ended. After two trials, fines and costs in one case and costs in the other, the party from number two school district finally dispersed .with material enough for gossip for the first month of the vacation. To unravel the tangle, it is neces sary to ?o buck to tht first kink in the yarn, which (K'curretl when the management of Finch's School, near Method, derided iuon an entertain ment to signalize the approach of the lays when erudition gives way to cul tivation. In the consummation of this pleasing practice, the school and its friends. Its brave., its maids, mmlieis. fathers antl sweet-hearls gathered in force. The scene was one of the cus tomary commencement loveliness. There was Ice cream and cake and a subscription paper. The leaves gave a tender Insouciance to the maids who served the refreshments in the open. the recitations were dramatic, the In strumental solos of a part with the excellence of the Instruction and the y.cal of the scholars. Over all. shed ding their light on "fair women and brave men" swung the Japanese lan terns, white and red ami blue, with out which an entertainment in May time is a vapid tuid a tasteless thing. No lantern, no atmosphere. No atmos phere no entertainment. No enter tainment n. pajamas for the heathen, tover for I he idano. carpet for the church, or mais f- the school houe. as the case may be. "Curlew shall not ring ton.'ght" unless It has a lantern to justify its tintinnabulation. Hence the thing that the defendants were charged v ih doing was an of fense of magnitude, an Insult to the occasion, a reyroach and a scandal in the community. It was alleged that tbey had brought rough house Into the Eden of education, criticized th? sinking, laughed at the recitations, doubted the ice-cream a'ltl torn up the lantern! Tho community whs outraged and the 'aw took a hand. Before Justice Se?ark. therefore. tame two brothers, lavld and Jesse Kubanks. charged with disturbance of the school meeting. With them, either to testify pro or con. came a largo: portion of school district No. 2 In House Creek tov.nshio. The matter was -one into at length and the court took judicial cognizance ot the season, suspected the tender emotions which doubtless prompted the vandalism, found the pair guilty, assessed the costs and retired leaving, as he thought, neacc behind. Not so. Scarcely had the back of the court disappeared into the court house when the defendant Jesse made asseveration In a loud voice that some of the witnoses had been swearing to lies against him. Spoke up Mr. Des Mooneyham. who as a witness harbored a suspicion that he had been insulted: "Do rou mean me?" Said defendant Jesse, cautiously. "No." Said Mr. Des with confidence: "If yon had meant me, I'd smash your mouth!" Enter Mr. Doc Blake with precipi tation: "No you won't." Responds Mr. Des with conviction: "If vou call me a lie. I'll smash your mouth"" Mr. Doc, pugnaciously. "Smash it then!" Mr. Des takes two steps forward and smashes Air. Doc. (Sensation among the assembled witnesses who spread- out in a circle like children Playing "King William was King James' Son"). In the middle of the circle Mr. Blake springs forward and smites Mr. Mooneyham. They clinch. The crowd gives way and applauds. They scratch. The crowd yells "fair play," PROFIT BY JUNE 15 CAN BE MADE BY THOSE WHO DESIRE TO PURCHASE STOCK' IN A FIRST-CLASS COMPANY WITH POSSIBILITIES FOR GREATER RESULTS THAN ANY INVESTMENT I KNOW TODAY IN AMERICA Write for Prospectus Im- ' mediately- W.

The crowd Is divided in Its appeals and unanimous in encouragement. Mr. Des and Mr. Doc. finding that there la a general sympathy with the pas sions of war, are forced themselves to enter u;on negotiations for a cessa tion of "hostilities. They stand glar ing at one another, lists drawn back, hair rumpled, faces bruised and .bleeding. They breath with heavy hatred. "Come on!" they say to each other. At this point the court, dis turbed by the alarums, breaks into the the circle. Messrs. ' Mooneyham and Blake yield ogt of respect to the law. (Exeunt omnes Into the Magistrate's olllce. where each belligerent is fined five dollars and the costs. They pay up and re-appear surrounded by their f i lends and disputing various points of the battle.) Assistant Register of Deeds Penny, who has been hanging out of the window like a broken backed Jack knife trying to see over the heads of the crowd (with tho inftnlte disgust of dlsaonolntment): "Huh!" The Court comes back and takes up his pen where he left on. School district No. 2 goes straggling up the street. The lanterns are still unpaid for and the heathen unfed! EDUCATIONAL RALLY. At Ax Tomorrow Preparatory to Voting Ijooal Taxes. A great educational rally will be held at Apex tomorrow, at which State . Superintendent Joyner, Hon. Josepnus Daniels, County Superintend ent Judd and Mr. R. D. W. Connor, secretary of the Educational Cam paign committee, will speak on the tuestion of better school facilities through local taxation. The people will vote on this ques tion next week. Apex Is one of the best places in the State at whlci. to build up a good school. The town h building up rapidly. Many new en terprises are beginning there, and people are moving 1n daily. The realize, however, that no community can be built on a sound foundation without providing educational facili ties "for its children, and Apex Is pre paring to do this. The people of Wake county and the State may bo prepared to hear good nevt: from this progressive town within the next few days. Apex has grown durtng the past year more than any town of Its sire In the state. It Is served by three railroads. The Seaboard Air Line, the Durham and Southern, and the' Cape Pear and Northern, and It has two large tobacco warehouses, making It the tobacco cen tre of Wake county. The town has a progressive spirit and is moving rap idly forward. PEOPLE DISAPPOINTED. Seaboard Air IJne Should Have Hun ShcIh1 Train. A large number of,Raleijh people were disappointed vesterday by the failure of the Seaboard Air Line to provide accommidatltms for carrying them to Wake Forest. where ihey were going to hear the literary ad dress, delivered at the college com mencement exercises by Bliss Perry, editor of The Atlantic Monthly. No. 3S was due at Wake Forest at 11:35. and the college authorities had agreed to defer the literary address until the arrival there of this train from Raleigh. But' the train was sev eral hours late, and the Seaboard should have run a special, one being already made up in L'nlon depot, to Wake Forest on the schedule time of S8 in order that the large crowd might be accommodated, but the raiKvay would not do thli. In cases of this character if the railroads fall to provide accommoda tions the Corporation Commission should require them to run special trains. " BOUGHT 1,000 DESKS. Large Contract Awarded by the Coun ty to Mr. C. J. Parker. The County Board of Education has awarded a contract for 1.000 desks to Mr. Charles J. Parker, of this city. These desks will be distributed throughout the county, and will bo placed principally in the new school houses. This Is one of the largest orders ever given by the County Board of Education, and representatives of school furniture manufacturing houses of Grand Rapids. Mich., and other places submitted bids in competition with Mrr Parker. The County Board of Education has made a study of school furnishings, and Is requiring the best to be install ed in the school houses. Mr. Parker has received practically all the Im Krtant contracts given by the School Board. DAMAGE TO CROPS. Fu niters Apprehensive of Agricultural Disaster. Many farmers who were in Raleigh yesterday said that If there does not soon come a heavy rain a consider able portion of all the crops In this section of the State will be ruined. E'or nearly five weeks there has been practically no rain, and the United States Department of Agriculture bul letins show this spring to be the driest since 1891. Cotton has already been severely damaged, and all other crops are suf ferlng. The cotton acreage has been greatly reduced by the weather, and many of the farmers do not possess seed with which to replant their cros. BOARD OF VISITORS.
