Mr. Wilkins had; long been a member of the Primitive Baptist church, a good citizen." None knew him but to respect and love him. He was a spiritually-minded man. Indeed, he practiced a high type of piety. He raised nine or ten children, all of whom survive him but one.. The writer knew him well, and knew him long, and can truly say that he has never known him to get out of temper. May all who knew Mr Wilkins endeavor to imitate him." Graded School, j "r.

' Rhodes Herndon was arraigned be fore Mayor Christian, this morning upon the charge of violating the lo cal option law. j When the case was called Herndon asked for a contin uance upon the ground that he did not know there was more than one witness against him. Of course this ground was insufficient and he changed base and asked for time to employ counsel and summons wit nesses in his behalf. Whereupon the case was postponed until 3 o'clock this afternoon. At 3 o'clock the case was again ca'led and for a satisfactory reason it was continued until 9 o'clock, Mon day morning, at the instance of coun sel for the State. They 3Iouru His Death. The Greensboro Patriot, published at Col. Morehead s native town, pays the following tribute to his character : ! " Eugene , Morehead was the youngest son of the late Governor Morehead, and ( inherited many oi the sterling qualities of his distin guished father. To that sturdy in dependence of character which com manded the admiration of men, and that spotless integrity which gained for him implicit confidence and re spect in the business enterprises where he exerted so potent an influ ence, he added ! the rare personal magnetism which knit friends to him as with bands of steel, the culture and- refinement which gained for him enthusiastic welcome in the so cial circle, and the warm, generous heart which made his philanthropy a vital, active principle in his sym pathy lor his iellowmen. "When such a man as Eugene Morehead gives up his hold on life, his State mourns the loss of his citizenship, with all its; virtue and value to its material prosperity : the loving and the loved weep over the sundering of the precious family tie, and are closeted with the sacredness of their bereavement ; but the peo ple of the community in which he was born and reared the home of his ! youth and childhoodhave watched with pride his development oi character, have shared his honors, and they mourn his death with a poignancy but little less than that which drapes the stricken home in mourning. "Born in this citv, the deceased moved to Durham a few years ago, where he has since resided, but he left his impress upon his native town, to endure longer than his own lifetime. Imbued with a progres sive public spirit, he put his hand to material enterprises with all the energy of his nature, leading often, 1 V 1 .l ana worKing always witn unselnsn devotion to the public good ; gifted with most pleasing social qualities, his lnnuence was ever refining and salutary and his departure left this people bereft of a powerful helper and a close warm mend.
