Some of the drug laws of North Car olina a’^e nothing shorter than a bare faced nuisance, passed purely with a view of putting more money in the Dockets of professional men. We refer to that which prohibits a druggist from selling certain kinds of family medicine without a prescription from a physi cian, alleging they were narcotics. We need only refer to that simple old household remedy laudnum, that up to a few years ago was kept by most every family in town and country, but all at once the sharp lawyer legislator decided there was danger of some one committing suicide, and they must not be trusted with laudnum. There is no trouble to buy ‘rough on rats’ and a thousand other poisons if they want to go that rout. There is cocain, prusic acid and hundred of other diuga that should be kept out of the peopleu hands, but some simple drugs does not come under that head. We want a legislative composed of honest practical business, and not a lot of professional sharpers.

There should be a very per sistent effort to get this removed. It will melt out of the way it you push it right, but the Southern Railway is too busy to give this matter attention, un less it is forced to their attention, and persistently and constantly forced, you must go after things if you expect to get them.

Often on Sundays I was invited to address the children, and I invariably discussed the theme of learning. Often, however, I spoke to audiences which did not hear. Have you ever had that experience, Governor O’Neal?” “Governor O’Neal bowed and smiled. A smile touched each face in the audi ence. And in a weak voice the speaker continued: “However, I have determined, if such a thing is possible, to open the doors of the schools to every child—” “He stopped. On his face there came an expression as if of intense pain. He staggered, grasped at the air, and fell.’’ —If you want your memory to live after you are dead work to deserve it while you are living.

A Mebane Buy. It Mill be gratifying news to the friends of Mr, Parks Wilson to learn that he is making good in Auston Texas^ a point to which he went three years ago. He is now holding a very respon sible position in the financial depart ment of the Street Car Company. Mr. Wilson attributes much of his good fortune to the training and early guidan ce of Col Preston Gray President of Bingham school, who did much to start him right in Kft. Sorrowing citizens were in Raleigh Sunday from every quarter of the State to pay the last tribute of respect to Charles Brantley Aycock, former Gov ernor, beloved statesman and citizen. Every incoming train and three special trains brought large crowds in spite of threatening weather. All the forenoon and until up to the hour of the funeral, 4:15, there was a consent stream of people passing through the rotunda of the State House to view the remains lying in state. It was 4:30 before the ceremony of removing the body from the State House to the First Baptist church, at the northwest coiner of Capitol square began. Then the active pallbearers, all close personal friends of the deceased and townsmen of his, when he lived in Goldsboro, conveyed the casket through the north corridor and placed it in the hearse, followed by the long line of honorary pall-bearers, headed by Gov ernor Kitchin, former Governor Glenn, the State officers, justices of the j Supreme Court and followed by dis tinguished citizens from every quarter of the State, and delegations from Goldsbo.o, Wilson, Warrenton, Durham and numbers of other cowns of this section. The hearse had reached the church and the remains were at the entrance before the last of the spe cial escort of citizens with bared and bowed heads, had passed out from the State House. The spacious chu"ch had ment where they wei’e held until ad vice could be received from North Carolina as to their disposition. MR^ AYCOCK’S CAREER, j Charles Brantley Aycock was born I at Friemont, this State, November 1, When a youth he entered the moved to 1 University of North Carbima, Chapel I Hill, where he took high rank, espe cially excelling in English. In a large measure he earned by his own labor the money which paid his collegiate ex penses, a fact which in no way affect ed his proficiency in his studies or his great popularity among his fellow students. He was graduated from the University, receiving the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Soon afterward he devoted himself to the btudy of law, the profession to which his exception al talents hs a speaker and as « think er made him unusually fitted. He i was admitted to the bar and entered ! on the cai’eer which North Carolina | believed was still tending towards its climax. In connection with his practice, Mr. Aycock became superintendent of the Wayne county schools. It was while holding this position, doubtless that he imbibei much of that wholesome and whole-hearted enthusiasm for ed- ucati^in which won him universally in his native State the title, “North Car olina’s Educational Governor.” from 1883 to 1898 he was United States dis trict attorney in the district of North Carolina. REAL CAREER BEGINS. It was in 1898 that he gained State wide prominence as a campaigneer. Under fusion rule scores of negroes in the eastern part of the State had been appointed magistrates and even to offices or more influence and pow er. The shackled east appealed to the more fortunate west for aid and a battle for “white supremacy” was begun and waged until the whole State rang with fhe battle-cry. His most pronounced enemy c*^uld not have called his speeches narrow. Whatever else they were, they were frank, plainly spoken, and mellowed with a humor which convulsed. There was a drollery of manner, a distinct iveness of touch • in his treatment 01 funny stories which made his hearers demand the repetition of his favorites. It is but recording the plain, cold facts in the case to say that it has been widely conceded that no North Caro linian of latter years has possessed in so full a degree the power^to stir the hearts of his compatriots, or has en joyed a larger measure of the con fidence and esteem of his contempor- ies.'^ The Jews. (Charlotte Observer.) We do not interpret the providences that have attended the Jews since the coming of Christ; all that we wonder at is that through all the centuries they have maintained in some fashion, if not in the Temple of Jerusalem and with all the ceremonies of the law and sacrafices made by the high priests, the solemn feasts commanded of them thousand’s of years . ■ before the Sup reme Sacrifice was offered up for the sins of the world. This is a quesiton for.the doctors and the saints ♦’o ar gue—our present purpose is to speak with ever increasing wonder that those friends to mourn their loss. The fun eral services were conducted at the home Saturday morning, March 16th by Rev. Ormond, Pastor of the metho- dist church at Hillsboro, and his re mains was taken Walnut Grove church yard for interment.

U. A. M. and Past Council in Eno Council No. 173 of which he belonged. He was also a member of the Dau ghters of Liberty. Death loves a shining mark—So when the grim de- stroyes came and laid his jcy hand on this great and good man, he was ready to exchange this world of suffering for that higher realm where sicirnesa and sorrow, pain and death are felt and feared no more. From adverse blasts and lowering storms. His favored soul bore And with yon bright angelic forms He lives to die no more No more shall the look of sympathy the earnest words of encouragement, and the warm hand clasp delight us. He was always ready for a good word and work and labored earnestly to ad vance the interests of our Order. Fare well dear brother, we hope to meet thee in a fairer clime in the Superior Council on high where no partings ever come. He has gone from his dear ones his children his wife, Whom he willingly toiled for and loved as his life. Oh, God; how mysterious and how strange are thy ways. To take from us this lovei one in the best of his days. May God care for shield, and pro tect the wife and dear little ones, left behind to cherish the memory of him gone bofore and may they at last all be reunitefi around God’s white throne. As we lingered near ofter the last sad rites had been performed we thought of the words of the Poet. Look at the beautiful city laid out in walk and square. W^here flowers in rich profusion perfume the summer air. ’Tis there the willow waiveth and the violet lift’s its head. And they call this lovely city the city of the dead. The breeze in gentle dalliance from flower to flower roves. And the very air seems purer in those quiet shady groves. No sounds disturb the still ness no laughter rude or luied. For there is something in that city awes even the gayest crowd. And side by side there slumber the rich man and the poor. There sleep the great the lowly the same trees o’er them waive. For earth’s proud and vain distinctions are leveled by the grave. Here some weary aged warrior quietly takes his reet near him some pale young mother with her babe on her breast. There the wealthy merchants slumbers and dreams no more of gain. There the widowed one forgets life’s weariness and pain. The bride in her fair beauty with orange buds in her hair. And wedding robe around her sleeps calm and peaceful there. There the orator proud reposes a stone at head and feet But a nameless one lies near whose rest is just as sweet. Artists states men Poets weares alike of fame, your haunting dreams have yaiushed and a white slab bears your namer Ah, who has not bowed with weeping over some coffined head. For we all loved and lost ones in the city of the dead. Council. The Editor has had quite a hard time with a painful attack of rheumatism for the past two months and has not been able to give that attentiou to the contest it was desired. We hope soon to be surficiently recovered to give the matter neces sary attention. We hope our contestants will not abate their efforts in the contest, but -will push with all possible zeal.

There has been no other people like them since the earth was formed, and it would seem that in our own country they are to find the new land of Canaan which was promised to their fathers; here, at any rate, they are taking a most important place in the making of this country and the establishment of its laws. The Red-Haired Woman. (From the-"Washington Post.) Red hair is not merely a crowning glory. It is a principle. It is a thing for which to fight and die. Some women are born great and others have greatness thrust upon them, but red- haired women are just bom. When Providence is in high good humor a few red-haired women are ordained. They are not strewn about the oarth like cabbages or Kentucky colonels. They are dropped to earth gently and tenderly, and with the sun-kisung caress of nature. Like a drama dashed off by Shake speare, an opera composed by Wagner, or a circus got up by P. T. Bamum is the flashing, joyous, caroling soul ot the red-haired woman. None but the women of the auburn hair knows what it is to have such fights to Heaven and such swoops below. The soft, clinging loveliness of May and the biting bla'sts of December are locked in the glorious frame of the red-hair- ed woman. Ten thousand people marched from the Home church ground down the cedar-flanked avenue to the Maravian graveyard at Salem Sunday reverently called “God’s Acre,”—and at the breaking of the day, stood with bowed and bared heads and paid homage to the risen Christ. The services of the Moravians on Easter mom are simple. They consist of responsive readings, prayer and songs—the old Grerman chorals, sung to the accompaniment of the church band—called in the old days the “trom bone choir”r-songs that are heard nowhere, perhaps, save in town where Moravians live. And yet the very simpleness of the services make them all the more impressive. People in Winston-Salem have attended every service for years, drawn to the grave yard by a desire to pay tribute to the breaking of the bonds of death by the Christ.
