DEATH OF MRS. ELLEN WHITE.
Occurred Yesterday Afternoon as a
Result of a Stroke of Apoplexy.
Mrs. Ellen White, widow of j the
ate Nathaniel G. White, died yester
day afternoon : at 2 o'clock at ' the
jiorrie of her son, Mr. C. L. White,
ri Georgia 'avenue. Mrs. White suf
fered a stroke of apoplexy Thursday
evening about 7 o'clock and from
that ime to her death yesterday af
ternoon hec condition grew gradual
J v weaker.
Mrs. White was 74 years of age
and wag a native of this county. She
i was the daughter of the late A. B.
White and! was born and reared in
No. 11 township. She married Mr.
Nathaniel G. White in 1857 and two
children, Messrs.: C. L. and T. J.
White, of this city, survive the un
ion. Mrs. White was a woman of de
vout Christian character and from
her girlhood had been a consecrated
member of the. Presbyterian church.

i his morning at 10 o'clock and the
interment was made at Rocky River
cemetery beside the grave of her late
husband. The service was conducted
),v Rev. T. jW. Smith.
Detroit to Vote on City Ownership.
Detroit, Mich., Jan. 22.- A Special
election will be held in Detroit to
morrow to settle the street railway
controversy, which has been a burn
ing issue ever since the late Hazen
S. I'ingree, iduring his term as mayor,
inaugurated a campaign for three
rent fares some fifteen years: ago.
At tomorrow's election the voters
vill decide the fate of the Thompson-
11 ally three-cent fare plan, which
provides for art extension of the pres- Mrs. U. .M. ldenhouse lias re
ont street I railway franchises until turned from the vellam Hospital at
1924 with eight tickets for a quarter
in the dav time, six at nirht. and uni-
versal transfers. At the same time
t he .voters .yillj pass upon a proposal
for out-and-out municipal ownership
of the street Railways.
The campaign" which closed today
has been the most hotlv contested in
the -history of Detroit. The Board
of Commerce is j the leading propon
ent of the Thompson-Hally ordinance.
I Billboards and dead walls throughout
the city have been covered with post-
ers advertisim: the merits of the
plan. Mayor Thompson and a corps
of fifty assistants have toured the
city daily j making speeches for the
ordinance.!
It is erenerallv believed that the
three-cent fare plan will be carried
and the proposal for municipal own-
ership defeated. The business men
appear to be almost a more difficult
to gauge, through a straw vote of the
employes in many of the large fac-
tories indicates that the workingmen
also favor! the three-cent fare plan,
The women have taken a lively inter-
est in the I campaign, as the women
taxpayers are to have a vote at the
election. ',
The opponents of the three-cent
fare ordinance are banking on the
requirement of the constitution that,
to carry, the measure must have not
less than three-fifths of the votes
polled. This means that the ordi-
nance must have a majority of not
less than 10,000 votes.

Mr. W. L. Robbins, the enterpri?

ing a new idea on a small scale as
to how to make some money day and
night, in season and out of season.

Relics of One of the Cabarrus Black
Boys.
Mr. J. M. W. White, of No. 1
itown-
ship, showed us last Saturday some
relics of Mr. William White, his
great - grand - father, who 'was one of
the famous Cabarrus Black Boys. The
relics consisted of a pair of shoes
worn by Mrs.-Jane White at the
time of her marriage to Mr. William
White, and a pair of socks worn by I
the latter. The shoes were made of
fine cloth, lined with a stiff coarse
texture. The bottoms were of leath-
er and the heels of wood, covered
with squirrel skin. The shoes were
evidently fine ones at the time, and
had the high French heel. Thev were I
home made, of course. The stock-
ings worn by Mr. White were also
of fine texture, and were long ones, as
knee Dants were worn at that time.
The marriage of Mr. Whit4 occurred
about 1771. There is still standing
0n Mr. j. M. W. White's place an
0ld house in which his great-grand-
father lived.

expressed the belief a number of
times that he would be successful in

standing near when Mr. Morrison ad
vanced this prophecy, assented. Mr.
Morrison added that Senator Sim
mons would get a majority over the
field in six of the ten districts, these
being the Sixth. Seventh, Eighth,
Ninth and Tenth. Mr. Morrison was
not so well posted, he said, with con
ditions in some of the eastern dis
tricts, but after traveling about a
xood deal and s-eeuring information
that he regarded as reliable, he felt
certain that Senator Simmons will
carry one of the eastern districts re
ferred to over the field. The Sena
tor, he said, would get a good vote in
every district in the State, and he
believed there was but one district
in which one of the other candidates
was likely to lead.
A Happy Scene..
Mr. Editor : Last night as I was
talking on Church street, I noticed
a very kind act on the part of a young
man. inere were a group 01 norse
traders sitting by a fire in the back
lots. I noticed a young man go up
and shake hands with each one'. I
was on the pavement near and cur
nous t0 know w a nlcely dressed
vounS man was ln sucn a rowd, I
wed nearer, yet in an obscure
Place- e lom tne men nis ;name,
shook hands and glad to meet them,
He then told them that he would be
very Sd to have them go to church
with him as it was Sunday. Much to
mv surPrise they thanked him kindly
tor asking them. Ihey looked at their
clothes and then at the young man.
Thev saiy We would not mind go-
in if we were not so dirty." The
y"n? man replied in a clear voice,
"Friends, it is not the clothes that
we wear, it is the heart. If you will
I will sit with you and we can
a11 Slt toganer.
This young man made a strong talk
but he did not succeed. As he left
be told each "good-bye hand-in-hand.
One said, "Your kindness has made
me leel happy and I am glad that
you care for us. 7
It was a good lesson for me and
I thought if only I could make men
happy in some way.
