C, for a flhort time: After making a nro- o r- - fession of religion and ioinin? the Methodist church, he felt it his daty t0 become a minister of the the gospel, gave up the law and en: tered the ministry. He joined the North Carolina Conference of the M. .I. Church, South, at its isession in Salisbury, N. C, in November, 1877. His first charge was the Mattamuskeet circuit in Hvde countv. He re mained on this charge three years ana was very successiui ana popu lar. He then spent four years, the full limit allowed by the law of his church, on the South- Edgecombe circuit, living at U oisnot, N. C. He was then two years pastor of the Methodist church at Statesvillo; then two years pastor at Wilson; then three years at Edenton Street church, Raleigh; then one year,last year, at Wilson.

Dr. Cordon was a man of fine ability and was regarded as an .ex- cellent preacher. His pastorates in dictated above were in some'of the most prominent pulpits of the State.

A man should always get :the. best, in the newspaper line, but where a man cannot really afford to take more than one newspaper. we say in all candor that that one should be his home paper, whether ' it be daily or weekly. We mean what we say. A man's first duty is to build up and sus tain the enterprises which contrib ute to the growth of the communi ty of which he is a part, and of all the enterprises the local newspaper is the best; no town can enjoy per fect prosperity without a represen tative paper loyally sustained by appreciative citizens. There is not a weekly newspaper in the smaller towns of this state which has the patronage it deserves. With few exceptions the testimony of the editors is that they are work ing "up hill;" their labor is t great and its rewards small. And vet the weekly newspaper does more for a town and people than anv other agency! If the citizens are wise, they will stand by their editor and scond all his efforts to enlarge the influence of his newspaper; and just here let us say another word to subscribers who assert that they can take one newspaper only. Newspapers are now published at rates which are within the roach of all, and we do not believe there is a man in. anv kind of business who is not fully able to pay for two " or more newspapers.: xhe press is a great educator, and on that line alone his money would be well in vested. The more papers with which he surrounds himself, the greater will be the benefits derived. cue tne constitution, lor reasons given, repeats mat ii mere oe a man who is too poor to patronize any other than his home paper, that is the paper for his monev. and may fortune increase his store! He Joined the Whlgkey Trust. He was, seedy and shabby, and if he had ever seen better days there was nothing about him to indicate: it. He sought a Wall street office, and by taking a i vantage of a flir tation between the pretty type writer and a juvenile clerk, which happened to have reached a very" interestidg stage, he mannaged to reach the inner sanctum, where the head of the firm was engaged study ing a ticker. - "Say, Boss," he began, bowing obsequiously, "for God's sake tell me how I can join this here Whis key Trust that the papers talk about. I've been thirsty for two score years and I ain't never been able to get trusted for a single J glass of whiskey yet." rpne oroker ripped out an oath, tnen fa smiied, then clapped his nana int0 nl8 pocket, puiiea out w quarter of a dollar and, presented it to the tramp. "Try it on soma other fellows," he said, "there' 8 money in it. Bu t if yon ever spring it on me again I'll have yon arrested." "A few honrs later a couple of policemen bundled tht tramp i nto the "cooler" of a down town sta tion house, but on his face was a smile of ineffable, happiness and content which found expression in mese Troras: ' ."Fam glorihsly' tight, 'n doan' care dam who knosh it." "Wall street has not enough space to bury its suicides, '
