The successful girl is usually a popular one, and her popularity is derived from the little things she does and says in life. They may not at the time impress a person, but in the end they must surely do so. The girl who is popular with men and women is she who ap preciates the fact that she cannot have the first choice of every thing in the world. She is the girl who is not aggres sive and does not find joy in in citing aggressive people. She is the girl who never causes pain with a thoughtless tongue. She is the girl who, when you in vite her to any place, compliments you by looking her best. She is the girl who makes the world a pleasant place because she is pleasant herself.

ANDREWS. A telegram was received in this city Sunday morning, announcing the death of this esteemed wo man occurred at the residence of her son-in-law, Capt. Joseph II. Guen, at New Bern, last Sunday at 2:25 a m., in the 86 year of her age. Mrs. Andrews was born in this city, where she spent the greater part of her life, and was the lov ing wife of the late Mr. Wm. N. Andrews, one of Raleigh's well known citizens. Mrs. Andrews was a most amiable woman and was beloved by all who knew her. The remains reached this city Monday evening, accompanitd by Capt. and Mrs. Joseph H. Green and daughter, Mrs. Plum mer. The funeral services were held at the grave, Rev. Dr. Pittenger officiating. The following gentlemen acted as pallbearers: Messrs. Alex. Stronach, Chas. B. Park, Ben. Mooie, B. R. Lacy, John T. Pul len and N. B. Broughton. Mrs. Andrews was an aunt of the Business Manager of The Harbinger. GOVERNMENT D Y INJUNC TION. In these days of "Government by Injunction," it seems that when a law is needed to prevent workiugmen from obtaining their just portion of what they produce an injunction is resorted to, and some judge who was formerly a corporation attorney is appealed to to grant it. One of the latest and most dras tic, injunctions ever granted was that by Judge Adams of the Fed eral Court at St. Louis, Mo., against the officers of the various unions of trainmen employed by the Wabash system. The injunc tion absolutely forbids the men from going on strike. While it does not say that no individual must leave his employment, it would have the same effect were the officers of the union to ask for more pay. Officials of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen and Brother hood of Locomotive Firemen de clare that President Ramsey act ed in bad faith, as he took advan tage of an extension of time from noon to 5 p. m. asked for and given him to come to a decision to go into court and obtain the injunction. The men will obey the order, but will also make a legal fight to have it dissolved. NEW HAVEN R. R. STRIKE. The strike of the car men on the New Haven road, which has been stubbornly resisted by the railroad authorities, is about to be settled favorably to the strik ers by the interposition of J Pierpont Morgan, who, in order to stave off a continuance of the strike, which would have crip pled the system, advised the railroad authorities to accede to the demands of the men. There is no doubt but that his advice will be taken. . President Roosevelt has receiv ed from President Zelayaof Nica ragua a stuffed eagle which was shot recently by the sender. Pres ident Zelaya is almost as much of a sportsman as President Roose velt. " Editorial Notes. Read the new ad. of W. D. King, about fiish. The fishing season has opened.
