News and Observer. An Old Colored Citizen. One of the old and highly respected colored men In Oxford Is Sandy Par ham, commonly known as "Uncle Sandy." 1 or 47 years he has been a successful blacksmith in Oxford and is a good workman and has the con fidence of our people generally. He is a courteous, and faithful colored man of the old type which is fast passing away, but which always commands the respect and good will of wThlte people. The younger generation of our col ored people would do well to study the manners and conduct ol these old men of their race, and to regulate their conduct accordingly. Ma, Stedman in Oxford. The many friends of Maj. Chas. M, Stedman ia Oxford and Granyllle were glad to see him here Monday and Tuesday. His visit was merely of a social nature to see some friends. A large number of his friends called on him and took occasion to extend to him their good wishes and sup port for the nomination for Govern or. Maj. Stedman has a very large following In Granville. Our people feel that he would adorn the office of Governor, as he Is a gentleman of dignity, character and ability. He was a gallant Confederate soldier and throughout his eventful life has been true and loyal to his State both in war and in peace. We give below a beautiful and just tribute to Maj. Stedman from the pen of Dr. T. B. Kingsbury, of Wil mington, which appeared In Sun day's Charlotte Observer. Without discrediting other worthy men, and without In any way cen suring their supporters who prefer them for the office of Governor, there is one gentleman who has been put In nomination by his friends who has peculiar claims and commensurate abilities and good experience for the Imposing place. I refer to a personal friend, Maj. Charles Manly Stedman, of Greensboro sans peur et sans re proche, a well known French maxim, well worn and true, which means "without fear and without re proach." I do not know today among living North Carolinians a gentleman who possesses more of the needed qualifications for the of fice of Governor. I cast no reproach on others in writing thus plainly and from conviction of its propriety and truthfulness. He has In combination many or tne very elements tnat a Chief Executive should have and to hold. No one who knows him as I have done for nearly twenty-eight years can gainsay that he la an hon est, upright, faithful, trustworthy gentleman. No man who has been Intimately associated with him can doubt his sincerity, his kindness, his high breeding as a man, his dignity, his self-respect, his uniform courtesy, his magnanimity, his friendliness, his regard for the feelings of others, his sympathy with those in distress. In a word, that Maj. Stedman is an able, well equipped, conscientious, reliable man In every fibre of soul and movement in life. He has shown that he seeks the good of his native, grand old State. In office and out of office he has displayed high quail ties, noble impulses, fine ability, act ing under lofty ideals, and always for the benefit of the people. He Is a fine, courageous, decided statesman, a man of Ideas, a master-spirit, not trimming to suit the storm, but un swerving in devotion to principles, with the great fixed star of liberty and fidelity always before him, as he steers over the tempestuous sea of political life. Such Is Maj. Charles Manly Sted man as he appears to me, and I have known personally many of the most prominent men of North Carolina from 1840 to 1904. He is indeed a man among men. I believe if elected he will make as faithful, as reliable, as brave, as wise a Governor as ever sat in the chair. I must hope that there Is no man wrho can vote, whether but twenty one or twice that age, who is hostile to Maj. Stedman because he fought In the great war for his State and the violated Southland with such splendid valor. "Duty to him is an Inspiration, and courtly and refined, he has in him the very qualities to make safe leadership and make him of unsurpassed courage and dash In the day of blood and tempest. No man of right Southern views and true Southern lineage, can ever pass him over for another Decause of his magnificent record when brave men were on the fire line fighting for home and fireside and liberty itself. It will be a proper and most Inspiring and commendable recognition of the great Issues In the tremendous war, and of the heroic, daring and unsur passed valor of the men of 1861-65, if one of the most gallant and worthy Is selected in 1904 to be the bearer of the people's standard In the battle of ballots before us this year. They say the leaves are always grown by May 10th, and the trees are doing their best to maintain precedence Robbed the Grave. A startling incident, is narrated by John Oliver of Philadelphia as follows: "I was in an awful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back pnd sides no appetite, growing weaker day by day. Three physici ans had given me up. Then I was advised to use Electric B tters. to my great joy the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try them. Only 50c; guaranteed at all druggists. fr 7riends &. Jrangers.

Miss Gregory's Violet Luncheon The Oxford correspondent of the Raleigh Post, writing under date of April 23, says: One of the most beautiful as well as most delightful social affairs of the season was on Wednesday after noon, when Miss .Janet Gregory gave a "Violet Luncheon" at her home on College street, this being the celebra tion of her eighteenth birthday. The house was beautifully decorated for the occasion. An exciting game of hearts was enioved. after guests were invited Into the dining room, the color scheme being violet, me tame decorated In lace with vio lets and lilac In profusion. A purple parasol was suspended over the table, from which was stretched streamers of violet ribbon. A verse of poetry designated the nln Cfl of each guest at the table, and at each piace was round a pretty souvenir, this being a fan. Elegant refreshments were served in courses consisting of salads, cream anu caue, cneese wafers and coffee. In the center of the table was a beau tiful birthday cake, and when this was cut the thimble and fish-hook fell to Miss Antoinette Taylor, the ring to Miss Julia Winston, and the dime to Miss Annie Fhrman. The guests Invited were the mem bers of the "D. B. Club," of which the hostess is also a charming mem ber, and on this her birthday they presented her with a lovely set or gold pins. Granville Superior Court. Granville Superior Court convened in Oxford on last Monday April 2."th, at 11::J0 a. m, The judge presiding, Hon. Chas. M. CooKe arriving on the 11 o'clock Southern train. The charge to the grand jury was a very brief one and the court at once commenced on the criminal docket after the charge. The docket at this term Is the smallest that has been In Granville for years, which shows that our people are very peaceable and well behaved. The criminal dock et consisted of only a few cases there being not a single jail case and just a few cases sent up from courts of J. P's, and Solicitor Brooks did not get enough out of the criminal docket to pay his expenses. The civil docket was also small and only a few of these cases on the docket were tried, the majority ol them being continued. Judge Cooke has given general sat isfaction to the people and the bar In Granville. Our people recognize him as a udge of ability and lnteg my. his was the second consecu tive term he has held here and we were glad to see him in Oxford again. The attendance was small at court. there being no cases of special Inter est to attract attention. Tuesday afternoon, was occupied by divorce cases, all colored, and four were granted. After signing up a number of judgments Judge Cooke aiscnargea the jury, having com pleted the smallest docket for many years and left for home on the o'clock Ssaboard train. Of course the jurors summoned for the second week will see that their services will not be required. $10,000 Stock of Buggies, Wagons and Harness.
