But the chapter being grateful for all the good work so faithfully done by Mrs. Henderson when the or ganization was in its infancy could not accept the resignation. Thia chapter of Rowan county is the third ever organized in this State and has ever been forward doing good work for the many causes brought before it. After much friendly talk and pleasant pro and cons, Mrs. Henderson was re tained as president of the chapter with thanks and appreciation by all of its members for having or ganized it and . for her continued good wbrk , during thepast five years. t It was motioned then that all of the faithful and tried officers be re-elected, which was given by a rising vote. .

This chapter having already sent $5 for this purpose, this mat ter was disposed of. The next ob ject was the Vance portrait which is to be painted for the North Carolina room in Richmond. $10 was given to this fund. Mrs. Murdoch here presented the cause of the sufferers from the flood at Galveston, Texas, at Camp Whar ton as described by Gail Gordon. Mrs. Thomas Murphy being pres ent reported that the 30 made at her residence by a concert for the Lee monument, she desired turned into the treasury of the chapter and when asked if she had any particular object she desired to re ceive the good of it, replied she preferred it going to the, relief of the living. . Mrs. E. B. Neave motioned to. give $25 of the amount to. Camp Wharton, of Texas. This carried and the treasr urer authorized to forward this amount. The next and very important matter to be considered was the Arlington dead which are to be removed and buried else where according to an act of Congress, $25,000 having been ap propriated for exhuming, but no means for transporting for burial. North Carolina desires to bring her dead to the State to reinter. The State president to further investigate andinotify the chapters the amounts ; needed for this most important object.

Of this number the membership of Noith Carolina is 1200, with. 27 chapters.

Tho' late Mrs. Tiernan fascinated her hearers with the richness and music of her voice and fain would have lis tened longer. $o.00 was given to this object, making in all $45 paid out in one afternoon.

THE MARKET SUSCEPTIBLE. What Effect the Queen's Death Will Have on England. Paris, Jan. 21. The fall of the English markets on news from the queen has attracted some comment. Financial circles here, discussing the situation yesterday and today, generally held that no. really im portant change in the public poli cy of England would likely result. That uncertainty if ri&t apprehen sion for the mouent was felt in some quarters of the London mar ket. It is argued, however, that the situation in the Transvaal is so thoroughly bad that a change in any direction would have to be regarded as favorable. The French opinion aa to the outcome in that regard is divided between those who believe that British war ope rations will be pursued more vig orously than ever and others " who hope that those now serving will be disposed to facilitate peace ne gotiations on the basis of compro mises.
