Yesterday morning liis wife went out to gather some peas taking care to keep away from the wires fastened to the gun. A dog whose presence she did not notice came in contact with the ar rangements for throwing the trigger and" tired it the contents striking Mrs. High in the ankle. It was loaded with small shot and the wounds arc not of a serious nature though painful. Dr. W. T. Cheat ham was called and gave the patient proper gurgical attention.

Mrs. Morgan is with him having join ed him inKim-ell on her return from Xew York. Mrs. Person's sister, Mrs. J. B Beard, of Hickory, is also visiting her.

Henry Blount Friday Evening. Persons who appreciate the sub lime in oratory, interspersed with wit and wisdom, pathos and philoso phy, logic and laughter, should not fail to hear Henry Blount at Cooper Opera House Friday evening. His appearance under the auspices of the Ladies1 Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal church together with the high character of the entertainer ought to guarantee a full house. They deserve nothing less. As announced last week Mr. Blount will be heard in one of his most suc cessful platform productions his famous monologue "Chow-Chow" which has been profusely praised throughout the country.

Cheek, whose sick ness has been noted from time to time for several months, died at his home in this place at 8 o'clock yes terday morning. Few deaths have occurred in this community tinder sadder circum stances. The deceased was an un usually bright and promising boy and just as he was stepping out upon the threshold of man's estate and entering upon a career which seemed full of hope and success to him in his chosen field of effort disease fastened itself upon him. And ere he had scarcely started the ascent of life's ladder he is cut down. Wade Hampton, fourth son of General William H. and Mrs. Alice Jones Cheek, was just 22 years old this month. Twice before within the past few years have an idolizing fa ther and mother and devoted broth ers and sisters been called upon to stand by the cold and pulseless form of a dutiful and affectionate son and loving brother. Bright, talented, manly young men, of handsome address and fine busi ness capacity. Will. Fritz and Wade Cheek were the pride of their parents and the objects of admiration and esteem from all who knew them. The subject of this article was a telegraph operator by profession. He was an expert in his line and was for some time manager of the Western Union oflice here. He had held posi tions with the Seaboard Air Line and elsewhere, but with the close of the summer season last year when he was at Wrightsville he was able to do but little work afterward. In F'ebrnary he went to Arizona hoping the climate might in some measure at least restore his rapidly wasting, health and strength. Not receiving the benefit anticipated after a sufficient stay to satisfy him Mr. Cheek returned home and has since been conliued to the house and for most part to his bed. He was con scious of his condition and much as he desired to live he was resigned to the will of the Father who "doeth all things well;" and with calm and patient spirit he approached the end as one whose hope is fixed upon bet ter things in the life that is to come. The night before he died, his father sitting by the bedside. Wade asked him if he thought he would live through the night. The answer was that possibly he would, but he was very weak and the end might come at any moment. To this with feeble breath and labored effort the dying man replied that he had tried to live a good life, and the sins com mitted by him he had repented of; that he was not afraid to die and was ready to meet the summons when ever it should come. And so he passed away. The funeral will be held from the Episcopal church at 5 o'clock this afternoon.

The Order of Columbus. Messrs. H. B. Crosland and K. Smith, of Raleigh, who have been in town several days for the purpose of instituting a council of the Order of Columbus, tell us they have met with encouraging success. They were joined this week by Mr. W. B. Wells, district deputy, and the indications are that a large membership will be secured among some of our leading citizens and representative business men. -The Order of Columbus is a beueficial and fraternal organization, incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland, and managed under the supervision of the State In surance Department. I pays death, sick and disability benefits for men and women, and the rates of in surance are very reasonable. It is claimed for the Order of Columbus that it has profited by the experience of other organizations of simular nature and has put into operation improvements in plans and methods which the experience of over a quarter of a century have shown to be necessary to safety and per petuity, all objectionable features of other fraternal orders having been eliminated. Cleaning Silver. Instead of scouring and rubbing each piece of silver separately, the whole ser vice can be cleaned in a few minutes as effectively. After each meal the silver should be put in a pan (kept especially for the purpose,) and covered with luke warm water, to which a teaspoonfull of (Sold Dust Washing Powder is added; set the pan on the range until the water gets to boiling point, then lift out each piece with a wire spoon and lay on a soft linen cloth, wiping them quickly with a chamois skin. The pieces so cleaned will be highly polished and look like new. Off icersEIected. At a meeting of the Vance Guards held at their armory Monday night the following officers were elected to till vacancies: Captain, First Lieutenant J. S. Poythress. First Lieutenant Second Lieu tenant VV. K. Sturges. Second Lieutenant Third Sergeant A. S. Renn. There was a very full attendance and the interest shown in the election bespoke the keen appreciation the individual members have for the welfare of the company. General satisfaction is felt over the result. Captain Poythress will make a capable and conscientious command ing oflicer we may not doubt, as will the other two gentlemen who have received promotion at the hands of their fellow soldiers. A vote of thanks was given Messrs. W. E. Gary and J. L. Currin for the excellent and satisfactory service rendered by them as the company's caterers during the State encamp ment. It was the unanimous verdict of every member that never on any like occasion have they fared better than they did at Morehead. They had more to eat, of better quality, and at less cost, for all of which they freely acknowledge their indebtedness to Messrs. Garv and Currin and ex press their profoundest appreciation and most grateful thanks therefor. Straw, Felt and Cloth. Hats and Caps at reduced prices to close them out. H. THOMASON. THE GRADED SCHOOL. Report of the Committee and Sub sequent Action of the Citizens' Meeting Thursday Afternoon. As stated in the Gold Leak last week the Graded School is an assured fact. And that success is no less assured the character of the men to whose care the enterprise has been commit ted is sufficient guarantee. The committee appointed at a previous meeting to solicit subscrip tions, etc., reported $2,121.50 pledged. There-are yet a large number of persons who have not been seen and from whom it is expected that a liberal donation will be secured. The committee recommended the purchase of a lot and the erection of a suitable building or the purchase of one that would serve the purpose temporarily, in preference to renting and fixing up a house. This was adopted. The election of 2 trustees from each of the 4 wards, the three school com mitteemen to be included in this number, and one from the country was recommended. The word "ward" being stricken out this clause of the committee's report was adopted. A committee of 5, Dr. J. D. Huf ham, chairman. Dr. F. R. Harris, D. Y. Cooper, S. Watkins and AY. W Rowland, was appoiuted to name a board of trustees and report back to the meeting at once. The committee retired and after a brief conference reported as follows: Dr. Hufham, chairman, D. Y. Cooper, J. B. Owen, Dr. F. R. Harris, Capt. T. J. Elmore, AV. E. Gary, Geo. A. Rose, C. A. Lewis, J. L. Currin. The three gen tlemen last named are the school committeemen, while Mr. (lary is named as the member from the coun try. The report was unanimously adopted amid much enthusiasm each name being heartily applauded as it was called. The trustees were instructed to go to work at once, make arrangements for a suitable building and commence the school as early as possible. They are empowered to elect teachers, pro cure a competent superintendent and do everything connected with the school as they would a private cor poration of their own. A vote of thanks was tendered the soliciting committee and those who had contributed or in any way helped to forward the movement for a Graded School. Dr. Hufham made a few happy re marks appropriate to the occasion, saying that as he believed Henderson was the best place and Henderson people the best people in the world he wanted it to have the best Graded School one that the town shall be proud of and one that will be a credit to the whole United States, he added in conclusion. Mr. Cooper spoke in behalf of the trustees and pledged their best efforts to make the school a success all that the best interests of the town re quire or the most ardent triends ot education could wish for. He called a meeting of the trustees for 4 o'clock Friday afternoon at his oflice, and as showing the interest these gentlemen feel in the matter and the earnest and vigorous manner in which they are going about the work confided to them it is worthy of note that every member was present. Various committees were appointed and the work assigned or parceled out under different departments among themselves, these sub-committees to report at a future meeting of the board. Thus does Henderson go merrily marching onward. MISS EMMA W. AVERETT, Piano and Voice. Organ and Guitar. Theory and Harmony. Training students for concert players and singers, a specialty.

She had reached the 70th mile post in life's journey and now quietly sleeps beneath the sod to await" the resurrection morn. She was a true and faithful wife, mother, friend and neighbor, and took pleas ure in doing good, as she was num bered among the Christian women of her community.

Into the capacious maw of the Gold Leak's lock drawer Father" Prince dumps everything in the way of mail matter he does not know how to dis pose of otherwise. We can stand being made an information bureau of but his latest "imposition" is one too many. In our box Tuesday we found a postal card directed to "Mr. Man ning, colored. Deacon of the Chris tian Church. Henderson. Vance county, X. C." Looking at the address we handed it back with the remark that we guessed it didn't belong to us as the description and identification were not in accordance with the "statoots" made and provided in cur case. Mr. Prince said he was not acquainted with any body else of that name and as he did not know what to do with it he thought may be we did. Glanc ing at the other side of the card and seeing the nature of the request made we are constrained to act in the Deacon's place and so make the an nouncement in this public manner since we have not the honor of know ing "Brother Bullock and the church" or their whereabouts at the present moment. Here is the card precisely as she ar writ: Dear Brother You will pleace notify Brother Bullock & the Church that I will be home on nex monday & will like to preach at St Andrews on Tuesday night.
