ASSAULTED MR. HENRY.
Negro Hurls a Stone and Then Es
capes in the Darkness.
Mr. Peyton J. Henry, son of Mr.
W. R. Henry, of this city, was at
tacked in a dastardly manner last
night by a negro man on Mint street.
Mr. Henry was walking with a
friend toward Vance street, where
the friend lived. Young Henry had
his arm around his friend's neck, his
hand extending out some distance be
yond the shoulder. They passed this
colored man and a woman and as
they did so Mr. Henry's arm grazed
the negro. The latter took offence
and cursed, using the epithet that is
unmentionable. Mr. Henry started
toward the negro to resent it when
the negro picked up a large stone and
threw it at Mr. Henry. It first
struck his little finger and crushed
and bruised it, and then sped on and
hit Mr. Henry on the head, cutting
the scalp. He went to the Mercy
General Hospital where his wounds
were dressed, and then went home.
The negro escaped but Mr. Henry
would know him if he saw him. The
police are on the alert for the man
WORKS SHREWD GAME.
Well Dressed Woman With Baby
Found to Be a Fraud.
A rather unusual swindling game
was worked on the residents of North
Tryon street last night by a well dress
ed woman, who had a young child
with her.
This woman would go to the houses,
and tell the lady that she had dropped
her purse in church, and asked the
loan of ten cents for care fare to get
back to Highland Park.
A gentleman, after she had called at
his house, and gotten ten cents from
his wife, suspected her, and followed.
He saw the woman go into several
houses, and he accosted her and it
was discovered that she had nearly $5
wrapped up in her handkerchief, and
all of it was in dimes.
The woman was warned to desist her
game, and went off, without telling her
name or where she was from.
The gentleman who accosted her on
the street, said that she was evidently
making a good thing out of the game
as the contents of her handkerchief
showed.

The Royal
Today and Tomorrow .
Several years ago I was a
great sufferer from muscular
rheumatism and my doctor ad
vised me to go on Mrs. Joe Per
son's Remedy. I only took a few
bottles, when I was entirely
cured. I then commenced to
use it in my family for general
use, and we depend upon it for
breaking up colds, neuralgia,
and most of the troubles one's
family is subjected to. Four
years ago, just three months be
fore the birth of one of my chil
dren, I was taken down with
measles, which weakened me
greatly. My stomach would not
retain a thing. I believe I
would have died had I not tak
en it. I do not think there is a
medicine its equal, when a tonic
is needed to build up the sys
tem. Mrs.. W. F. PUCKETT.

trumpet tones.
When John the Baptist took up the
thread of prophecy, unheard for 400
years, he cried, "Repent ye, for the
kingdom of heaven is at hand;" Jesus,
himself, takes up John's idea, and dur
ing his earlier ministry almost confines
his work to a call to repentance. Peter
and Paul follow the goodly exampie
and we find the same note in Revela
tion, as we close the sacred volume.
To have a spiritual revival in any
church, repentance must come first.
lhe Ephesian church was one in!
which profession of faith in Jesus
Christ was made publicly, that is, by
baptism. Baptism is the only com
mand in the New Testament given in
the name of the Trinity. It is doubt
less possible to be a Christian with
out being baptized, but one can not be
an obedient Christian. "If ye love Me,
keep My commandments." The persons
who were baptized into the member
ship of that church were believers
whose faith had been prececded by re
pentance. The same prerequisite ap
plies to our churches today.
Ephesus When Paul Was Pastor.
The Ephesian church was one on
which the. nower of the Holv irhost
fell. It is one of the six instances giv-
en in acis oi uapusma oi uie opun oi
God; as that at Pentecost showed that
the Spirit could come to the Jews, and
that a Cornelius' house that the
same blessing was for the Gentiles,
and that at Samaria, that it come upon
half-heathen converts, so this last in
stance, recorded in the morning's les
son, displays the Comforter coming to
men who have known but a half-truth
in the past.
With Paul as their pasotr they had
pre-eminently the right sort of preach
in. That master spirit, who never look
ed into the eyes of a mortal man to
fear him, could but be faithful in his
preaching. He could not but be bold,
not shirking responsibility, not cow
ing before the most imminent danger.
Like the great Apostle, a preacher now-a-days
might be a proclaimer of the
truth; not carrying a chip on his shoul
der, but with the absolute courage
of his convictions.
Need of Discipline.
Again, that church was separated
from the world. The reason that the
church today has so little influence
over the world is because the world
has so much influence over the church.
The church which is unable to discip
line, must inevitably become dead. We
must take into our membersip all
classes, and it is only by rigid discip
line that the bride of the Lamb can
be kept apostles and without blemish.
It was a church with a missionary
spirit, and marked by missionary en-
ueavor. In two years' time it con
verted Asia Minor, instructing an class
es, Jews and Greeks alike! Missions
arc the very life of a church. The
church which looks inward is digging
its own grave; the church which looks
outward is going on to one victory af
tcr another. The church today bears
the responsibility of giving the gospel
to the whole world; and woe be, if it
prove recreant to that duty.
It was a church power. Its mem
hers fought with evil spirits and cast
them out. The power of God is un
known until it is tested by contact
with the power of Satan. The theolo
gy of the student must stand the test
tor he sinner in he street. This church
contended with hypocritical imitators,
exposed and overthrew them. God has
a plan for each of His creatures; He
desires that that plan be fulfilled
rather than that men become mere imi
tators of someone else.
This church recalled and reclaimed
backsliders; it was essentially an
evangelistic organization. Beginning
with Paul's twelve converts, it grew
to be the mightiest influence in that
city. From it the gospel went out ex
tensively, and prevariled intensively.
In all these points the church of
Ephesus ought closely to be studied
and followed by the churches of the
20th century. Note the last reference
to it in Scripture, however, for an
example to be avoided. In the second
chapter of the Revelations the Holy
Snirit. sends this message to it: "But
1 have this aginst thee, that thou didst
leave thy first love." It later became
cold. The true type of a dead church
is not to be found in a deserted coun
try sanctuary with decayed rails ana
rnnf fallen in: but rather in a church,
to the eye of man prosperousbut whose
pulpit, choir and pews are imeu wnu
thncr. sniritimllv dead. Magnificent
new church buildings, comfortable
seats and large donations to wortny
causes can't make true Christians hap
py unless the footfalls of sinners re
turning to the fold, are neara wiinm us
walls.
Is the Young Man Safe?
Tho twelfth chanter of Ecclesiastes
was selected as the lesson for the eve-nino-
nnri thp sneaker chose as his text
the 32nd verse of the 18th chapter of
Second Samuel: "Is the Young man
Kafp?" After a bnet but dramatic ie-
cital of the career of Absalom, with
his tragic end, Dr. McDamel address
ed this question of King David to the
hearts of the young men in the con
gregation before him.
"Is the idle young man sate.' ine
devil tempts busy men, but the idle
man tempts the devil. The idler's
downfall is certain. There is grave
danger that the present generation is
rearing a race of idlers. Give your
young men and women something to
do. Teach them that work is honora
ble. Teach them the dignity of la
bor. "Is the young man who keeps bad
company safe? When you send your
boy to college, the chief part of the
problem is that he secure a good room
mate. The company of some people
makes for righteousness ; that of oth
ers wickedness. If one desires to be aJ
real Christian, it is necessary to be
careful of the company one keeps. In
this life we have to fight evil influences
.nHsinar from heredity, from envir-
nnm ent. and from spiritual antagonism.
The best influence we can surrouna
ourselves with, is none too good to as
sist us in this fight.
Is the young man who disobeys his
parents safe? It seems today as though
the real authority in some homes cen
tered in the whims and fancies of the
children, . thus reversing the ancient
law into: Parents obey your children.
The generation now passing got its
principal education in the hard school
of experience. The younger generation
enjoys superior advantages, but is in
grave danger of becoming supercilous
and thinking that it knows more than
the older people. It is well to remem
ber that a child can never repay its
father and mother for their love and
care; for this memory may inspire
obedience.
The Sin of Profanity.
"Is the young man who swears safe?
With most sins, the devil persuades his
victim that there is great pleasure or
reward in their commission; but in the
case of profane swearing there is not
even an apparent recompense. Many
young men are guilty of this sin. They
do not swear in the presence of ladies,
nor of ministers of the gospel; but
seem to have no compunction about
using oaths in the presence of the
great God who fills the universe and
whose name is Love. I
Dr. McDaniel then took up the safe
ty of the young man who drinks, and
on this vital topic delivered a strong
statement of impassioned eloquence,
a part of which is quoted at the top
of this column. He asserted emphati
cally that neither the young man nor
the young woman who drinks at all,
can be considered safe.
How about the young man who reads
bad books, infidel and other. A good
book radiates a fine influence, but a
bad book has often times been the
stumbling block on which a soul was
wrecked. Many infidels claim that
their position is intellectual, but a
careful examination would show that
there is no God. Infidelity is an at
tempted joke on the Almighty. "The
fool hath said in his heart, there is no
God."
Is the young man who sows his wild
oats safe? It is often asserted that it
is a good thing for a young man to sow
his wild oats. Nothing could be more
damnably false. Chickens of that
sort invariably come home to roost.
"Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall
he also reap."
Lastly, is the young man who flees
to Jesus Christ for refuge, safe? He
is safe for all eternity. "He that be
lieveth on Me, though he die, yet he
shall live; and whosoever liveth and
believeth on Me, shall never die.
This afternoon Dr. McDaniel is ad
dressing the Woman's Misionary So
ciety of the First Baptist church.
Each night this week, he will preach
in that church, the services beginning
at 8 o'clock, with a song service.
FARMERS SHOULD ATTEND.
Can't Afford Not to Help Charlotte
Get Democratic Convention.
Editor The News:
We farmers are not as careless to
public matters as we are supposed
to be. We thing a good deal if we
are not always on hand to express
our views at public gatherings.
After a days work in the field we
reach our home tirod and dirty, we
feel more like taking a' good bath
and resting, rather than to fix up
and go to some meeting being held
for the benefit of the whole com
munity. The meeting tonight at the Selwyn
Hotel is one we must attend. The
moon will shine, the roads are dry,
the electric cars are convenient to
many farmers and our pride for our
county as well as for Charlotte will
prompt many farmers to lend their
assistance to the move to bring the
democratic state convention to
Charlotte.
Every farmer within five miles of
the city is urged to attend the meet
ing tonight, and those who may be
selected to go with the special
committee to Raleigh, should go,
f.ven if at a sacrifice to their spring
work. A FARMER.
GRANViLLE'S FUNERAL.
A Unique Cross, With a Small Cotton
Bale in it, On the Bier.
The funeral of Granville Reddicks,
for many years a faithful employe at
the cotton compress, was held yester
dav afternoon and was one of the most
imposing that has been held in this
city. The deceased was a member of
the colored Odd Fellows and 100 mem
bers of this order marched before the
hearse to the cemetery in their full
regalia.
Granville had a lot of good friends
among the white folks and many of
them sent floral designs, one costing
$G. Among them was one of nis old
employer, Col. A. L. Smith. ,
The most effective design was one
gotten up by the colored people a
large cross made of cotton, and into
this cross, where the pieces cross, was
set a small bale of cotton, one of the
first that Granville had compressed
when the compress waa started years
ago. He had kept it as a souvenir m
his home ever since.

Markets
Hayward and Clark.
New York, March 9. Saturday's ca
ble news "Manchaster doing better bus
iness," was followed up by a good
market in Liverpool today. Due about
unchanged futures and spots advanced
seven points. Spot sales amounted to
10,000 bales. Towards the end of last
week signs of spot holders weakening
became more numerous, larger f. o. b.
sales at lower basis were the best
indications. It may be that this im
provement in the English market will
rally the spot forces once more. Such
prospects and a turn in the weather
induced and some professional buying
here this morning which carried prices
around the opening about nine points
above Saturday's closing figures. This
buying satisfied the market collapsed
for want of the same old reason: "Lack
of speculative support." Light to mod
erate showers occurred in the central
states and Texas, where there was
judged beneficial. Some heavy rains
fell in Arkansas, where they are not
wanted and will delay work. Fair and
colder weather in indicated for the
west and central belt, showers and
colder is promised for the eastern
states. A Texas office wires: "West
Texas reports good rains, just what
was needed." News of professional in
terest is that Liverpool and Sully have
entered into a combination to control
near positions in New York. Mr. Price
is reported a good seller but has issued
a bullish circular. A feature in Liver
pool is that new crops there lost all
of the early gain of 5 points and
closed as on Saturday. There is some
new demand here today for Liverpool
and some staple lots are sold at better
prices. Lower grades staple off color,
etc., are, however, neglected.
Hayward and Clark.
Bache & Co.'s Letter.
New York, March 9. The cotton
market rules narrow and after sharp
advances at the opening due to the
strength of prices in Liverpool, the
short covering abroad caused uneasi
ness in the market and the bullish in
lerest took charge of the manipulation
and prices were advanced to 10.76 for
May, 10.G0 for March, and 10.50 for
.Tuly. The British board of trade report
for February was bullish and this in
fluenced buying. Later the profes
sionals sold and prices eased off but
the buying on the decline was good and
the market then became very narrow.
The big cotton operators have taken
advantage of the dulltimes to take
their winter and spring vacations and
we expect there will be very little do
ing in the market either way for the
time being. Favor sales on bulges.
J. S. Bache & Co.
Morehead & Co.'s Letter.
New York, March 9. The cotton
market was active during the middle
of the morning and showed a reaction
ary tendency, with the active months
selling from six to seven points off
from the best. Liverpool cotton closed
steady.
American spinners do not seem to
be in any hurry to buy cotton, and un
til they begin to come into the mar
ket we expect to see cotinued apathy.
Of course, the weather will soon begin
to have more or less influence, and
estimates of acreage will begin to ap
pear from now on and this will contin
ue its share towards higher or lower
prices. Morehead &. Co.

A TR I -STATE Y. W. C. A.
Helpful Addresses Made by Misses
Clark and Casler.
Following the organization Saturday
of the Tri-State Y. W. C. A., consisting
of Virginia and the two Carolinas,
there was a mass meeting for women
in the Sunday school room of the First
