Poo, Esq.. if Kuics Creek. She was' a member of tho Meth.Mi:st. church, a christian lady, u dco-ed wife and a useful woman. She had been sick onl a short while and her death was a shock to the entire community. She was a young wojian who was well prepared to do the people, of this neighborhood much iiood as well as her family'. - " She was a graduate of St. Mary's School. In January, 1S92, she came to Buies Creek Academy and took charge of the music ' department. While she was in school here her pupils and all the school learned to love her. She was Jlwa3's kind and loving to all the school, and it was with sad hearts that we heard of her death. After the session closed she was married to Mr. H. H. Poe on June 1st, 1892, and made him a kind and loving wife till death laid its hand upon her. - But we must submit to the will of Him, "who doeth all things well." And while this family shall never again on earth behold her taceasthey once did, yet her Christian example will naver be forgotten by them, but will remain a bright spot In the" mem ory of her family and friends and re latives who are permitted to survive her. Her life was worthy of imita tion for she was a Christian lady in the best sense of the word. We tender our heartfelt sympathy to her husband and his children who are left to mourn their loss. May thoy bear their loy3 with a Christ like spirit, and say in the language of our Sayior, ''Thy will be done." "Blessed are those who die mi the Lord for they shall see God." She was buried at Pleasant Plains church June 22nd. j a ii, b. Some of our County Citizens Sus tained Loss The failure of the Peoples Nation al Bauk in Fayctteville in December 1891, is well remembered by our town and especially some few of our county citizens. Mr. A. J. Turlington, a man noted for his industry, economy, fine judge ment and good skill, and one whom all our people have explicit confidence in, was the only stockholder from this county that we have heard of, and it was fortunate that no othtrs had stock for thoy would not only loose what stock they owned but be assessed to pay off the dividens. Some eighteen year3 ago Mr. Tur lington bought $500 worth of stock. Oeing 5 shares which he held until the failure." Soon after the failure the bank paid a small dividen, and since then another to the depositors, 3nd it is thought another will be paid soon of 25 oi 30 per cent, which will be all very likely that the depositors will geIn order that the last dividen might be paid an assessment on the stockholders had to be made, so on the first of this month Mr. Turling ton had to pay $250 more to get out of the broken bauk. Messrs. Itaifcrd Lucas and Bud Tart had deposits in the bank when Jit lailc.it. So if there were no others in Haruett, the ross was about $2,250. The financial world is in just such a fix that men are afraid to put out their money as no place is abosultely safe. The State Fair for 1893 - We have received from the Secre tary, H. W. Ayer, a copy of the pre mium list for the Stalo Fair of 1893. It is a more artistic publication than ever before, being cmbelished with handsome illustrations of North Car oina scenery, agricultural and fish ing industries, etc. The list has been thoroughly revis ed, especially in the departments m which ladies ae intt rested, and the premiums are very liberal. The u hi al Rtar prrminm of Fifty Dollars in gold js ottered for the best exhibit rn idc by a lady resident of the St.-.; e. with a second premium of Twenty Dollars Th-re is also a premium of Filly Dollars for tlie lest display of any ki-.d in the Main 1- xhibit build ing. Fruitgrower., and Poultry fan ciers, as well a cithers, will fi?.d the list for this year yery interestiug. Anybcdy can get copies by applying to II. W. A er, Raleigh, N. C. Evry bodv should have one. Masonic- Godwin-, N. C. June 20th, '93. Thinking it might not be amiss I have decided to send vou a descrip tion of our meeting at this place last Saturday, the object oPwitich was the public installation of the officers of Greenwood Lodge No 119, A. F, & A. M. The officers performing the duty were Messrs. Z. and I. W. Taylor of your town, and their part, in the opinion of all present, was well per formed. Officers installed wete as follows: K, J. Rhodes, W. 31.; T. B W. Jackson, S. W ; D. A. C. Denning. J. W.; C. C. McLellan.Treas,; D. G. McLellan, Secy.; W. J. Snith, S. D.; L, J Tcw, J. D.; W. A. Baggett and S. T. Sta- ling, Stewards; W. E. Rhodes, Tiler. After the installation we listened to a public Masonic address by Col. F, P. Jones of Dunn, this occupied about two hours, and I have it from those competant to judge, that they never heard the subject handled bet ter. Next came the refreshments, which were daintily and temptingly spread by the mothers, wives, sisters, daugh ters, and last but not least- sweathearts of Masons. Tha supply was amply equal to the occasion, with baskets and boxes of fragments over. Observer. Big Pay For Writing. The largest amount per word ever paid to an American writer is said to be received by the late Henry W. Grady; editor of the Atlanta Consti tution, from the New York Ledger, Mr. Grady wrote to the journal five letters on the condition of the South. They averaged 1000 words each, and were paid for at the rate of twenty cents a word. Mr. Grady dictated the first letter to his stenographer in twenty minutes, thereby earning 10 a minute, and the letter was pro nounced to be the best of the series. School Girl. A Literary Sensation- "Uncle Tom's Cabin" has certainly "broke loose" ! The copyriwht on this most famous of American novels, by Airs. Stowe, has recently expired, which frees its publication from the monopoly of the high priced publish, era, and though in anticipation of this tact N they have within a few months greatly reduced its price, now that is really "uncbined" the conse quences are something surprising. John B. Alden, Publisher, of New York, issues several editions, selling them only direct (not through agents or book sellers); one in good type, paper coveis, for 5 cents, sent post paid, or the same bound in cloth for 10 cents with postage 7 cents extra; also an excellent large-type edition, on fine paper, handsomely bound in cloth for the price of 25 cents, post age 10 cents. Surely a oopy of "TJucle Tom's Cabin wili soon be found in every Lome where it is not already. Mr. Alden send3 a 32-page pamphlet describing many of bia pub lications free, or a catalogue of 128 pages of choice books, a veritable literary gold mine" for book-lovers, for 2 cents. Addie- Joux B. Aldex Publisner, 57 Rose Street, N. V. Go to Dupree and Lane's and look at their nice line of PaaU. The University The rapid -id wholesome growth of the University is matter for State pri 'e. and rpjaicing. In two 5car3 the student roll has grown from 10S to 31C. $20,!00 worth of tvpiirs U being tnadc on the buildings this summer; wa.er work3- bilhs, etc, are being supplicd The scholarship of thr. institution is being recognized every wlkire hs cquul to that of ih: leading Universities, and sooo we shall have in North Carolina the great Southern University. Sec advertisement INTEGRITY. Without honesty of purpose and iutegri'.y of character, true and per mancnt success would "seem to be im possible. Wrong v actions, wrong principles, wrong conceptions of mutual ooligations. may sometimes lead to temporary success; but in the end, "the wicked shall perish." So it i written, to all experience has demonstrated, and so it must ever be. Tne "roguisU merehant must even tually see ihe fruits of his rognery; treacherous minister, navii g "sown to the wiud" must "reap the whirlwind;" the dishonest employe must come to grief ab last. Success that is endur ing, must be achieved oy the strictest laws of honor and integrity. , The young man who starts in life with a purpose to follow that ancient rule, "Do unto others as you would that other should do unto you." and is at the same time confident of ids own capacities, and persistent in fol- . lowing a specific lme of action or course of business, must inevitably succeed, not only m a temporary, but in a permanent sense. Cincinatus was recognized as a man of integrity, and though he fol lowed the humble avocation i.f a larmer, yet he was summoned by the Seuate of Rome to render assistance to the Republic. A simple Roman citizen, he patriotically abondoned the pursuits he loved best, went to serve the State, and became en shrined in history as an exemplar of purity of character. The inflexible rules laid down for their own guid ance by men who have commenced av. the very lowest round inthe ladder might be introduced here were ft practicable to give so much space. John Jacob Astor and Abbot Lawrence, among Amsrjcans. and John Bright and the Crossleys, of England, are eminent exam ples of men who, while rigidly adhering to the strictest rule of honesty aud fair dealing, have yet achieved cho highest stations.
