C, will deliver his noted lecture, entitled, "Feast of Fun," in the lecture room, Monday, March 2nd, at 8 : 15 p. m. The speaker will be introduced by Mr. How ard A. Banks. The following is a testimonial from Judge Palmer: "Judge Palmer, of Florida, a gentle man of learning and culture, pays, the following fine tribute to Mr. Blount and his unique and wonderful produc tion: 'It was my rare privilege while at Blowing Rock, N. C, this summer to hear that unique production "Wit, Hu mor, Eloquence and Oratory," by Hen ry Blount the Mark Twain of the south. There is nothing approaching it i in our literature or heretofore furnish ed from the rostrum. Under his mag netic touch his audience is carried quickly through the whole gamut of feeling: now awed by -is matchless eloquence; then suddenly convulsed by his side-splitting mimicry, to be sud denly relieved by the sweet touch of poetic tenderness. In Henry Blount the qualities of the philosopher,' the orator and the actor are blended with the divine gifts of the poet.' " NEW COAL FOR THE SOUTH. It is One of the Best Fuels for Steam and Domestic Purposes Ever Pro duced in Virginia. The, Clinchfield Coal Corporation has opened offices in the American Trust Rnildinev fnr the purpose Of keeping in closer touch with the coal consumers of the south. It is now introducing its coal, which is mined in the famous Clinchfield of Vir ginia, on the new South and Western Railway. It is conceded to be one of the highest grade coals in the country. Trial cars have convinced many of the leading mill men of the Carolinas that ; it is the most eco nomical coal thev can buy. Big con sumers throughout the south are giving it a trial now in a practical way to ascertain its merit before entering into a contract for the sup- nw thov win n rhiring iu C1,aum6 year. 27-lt.

The re publican state central committee went into session at the Plankinton House early this afternoon to work out the problems in regard to the state pri mary law, the operation of which, in a measure, conflicts with the provisions set forth in the call for the republican national convention in relation to the selection of delegates. After consult ing with the attorney general's office at Madison the party leaders have about concluded to follow the lead of the democrats by holding a state convention for the nomination of dele gates.
