DIED.
Mrs Ida Rosenthal, yesterday at 4
p m, died of the effects of la grippe,
in her 55th year. She was the faith
ful and devoted wife of Jacob Rosen
thal, from an early marriage up to
the time of his death,about ten years
ago. Tney were formerly citizens of
Washington, N C, but natives of Ger
many. She leaves six children living
a few relatives in this country, and a
very large circle of friends who pain
fully feel the loss of a mother, a rela
tive and a large hearted friend. Mrs
Lena Heller and Mrs Bella Loeb, of
Harrisonburg, Va, arrived in the city
this morning. I hey had been noti
fied of the sickness of their mother,
and had started, and while on their
way received the sad news of her
death. Mrs Bertha Ottirger,of Kins
ton, N C, will net be able to attend
the remains of the deceased, as she is
quite sick. "Willie" her only son,
and the pride of the mother's heart
reached her side about two hours be
fore her death. She had spoken of
him often in her sinking hours, and
when he came, she recognized him,
and offered a dying mother's kiss,
with a mother's blessing. Misses
Annie and Ella were with their moth
er during her sickness and attended
to her wants as only loving daughters
can do. Their experience has been a
trying one. and they have borne it
well. Now the hearts of her children
are overcome with grief. Tbey are
now orphans, and may He whose
hand upheld the widowed mother in
her afflictions and loss, now fill the
vacancy in the hearts of the bereft
children and sustain them in this
dark hour, and the greatest trial of
their lives. '
A gentleman of this city whose aO'
tjuaintance with her began many
years ago, while both were citizens of
Washington, N C, said among other
things to this writer, "I have known
Mrs Rosenthal long and well; I knew
ber in palmy days of prosperity, when
she stood by the side of a loved and
loving husband. She was all the
world to him,and he to her was noth
ing less. Her home was the centre of
a moral influence which was at once
felt and never forgotton by any who
came w'thin the area of its power. In
a word, she was a loving wife, a ten
der mother, and a faithful friend
She has always been my friend and I
join her children in their Borrow, and
feel that I am a sharer in their loss."
Her remains will be taken I o Golds
boro en the 1pm train tomorrow
where they will be interred by the
side of her deceased husband.
We extend our deepest sympathy
in this sad affliction, to the family.

To any extent you cannot ignore the
importance of prices. You cannot

before looking at their stock if you

kind of stock kept at Swindell's, and
the prices as compared with other
stores in same line. We don't hesi
tate to tell you that you can save
money by buying these goods at Swin
dell's, and in men's and b oy's cloth

Rice planters in the South are ac
customed to burn their rice straw to
get it out of the way. It is under
stood that recent practical tests have
demonstrated that this straw makes
excellent paper material. One paper
company has gone so far as to order
8,000 or 4,000 tons of .the straw to fur
ther the expwiment. Rice straw may
yet prove to be a cotton seed in mina
ture. At any rate, the result of these
experiments will be watched with
interest.
