Special to The SenuneL
RALEIGH. June 16. The Teachers
Assembly closed a highly successful
three days' essioa last night.
The state association of county
superintendents of public schools is In
session today and the North Carolina
summer school is to open Tuesday for
a three weeks' sessk. There is every
assurance that the great majority of
the teachers here for the assembly
will remain over for the summer
tthooL

bly last night were an address by B.
C. Gregory, of Chelsea City schools,

of Wofford College, both being on the
general work of the teacher. The

brilliant concert complimentary to
the assembly by many of the best

AT AUDITORIUM NEXT WEEK.
A Good Popular-Priced Company Will
Precent a Repertoire of New Plays
Popular Prices Will Prevail.
With repertoire of well-known
successes and with a line of expen
sive and up-to-date specialties Sla
ter's Comedians will hold the boards
at the Auditorium all next week. In
augurating their merry season Mon
day night, when the splendid society
diama, or rather comedy-drama. "The
Diamond Robbery," will be presented.
The production will be made with
special scenery and light effects and
the cast will be a splendid one. Fol
lowing this presentation will , come
such popillar successes as "Nobody's
Fool." "A Soldier's Sweetheart," "I'n
der the Stars and Stripes," "Kidnap
ped in New York," "Tracy, the Out
law," etc. . So It can be seen that the
repertoire Is new and one of remark
able worth.
The vaudeville with the company Is
of remarkable worth, and there Is
plenty of It. Songs and dances, com
?dy sketches, novelty acts and the
very latest Illustrated- songs make-up
tfca program.
Slater's Comedians are now South
for the first time. Heretofore they
have played, and with marked success,
entirely In the North. Last summer
the company appeared In stock In a
well-known Cincinnati park.

FOUR-FOLD GOSPEL MEETING.
Rev. A. B. Crumpler to Preach on
"The Lord's Supper" And "Bap
tism" Tomorrow.
Reported for The Sentinel.
Yesterday Rev. A. 11. Crumpler
again spoke twice at the Four-Fold
Gospel church. In the afternoon ser
vice Dlsclpleshlp was the theme, with
Luke. 14:27 as the text under consid
eration. "And whosoever doth not
bear his cross, and come after me,!
cannot be my disciple." It was
brought to notice that the. word used
Is "cross" not "crosses." This cross
dees not refer to the hard things,
trials and persecution Incidental to
iollowing Christ. Rather it speaks
of death, the crucifixion of love of
the world, the old nature and self.
The Bible being its own commentary,
we find a clear explanation of this
In the verse. "They that are Christ's
have crucified the flesh with its affect
tldng and lusts."
At the 8 o'clock service, from 1st
Jolm 3:9, Mr. Crumpler set forth that,
apart frdm all theories of sanctifica
tlon, the man who professes conver
sion should live above sin. There
were three professions at this meet
ing. The three o'clock service was omit
ted today but Mr. , Crumpler will
preach again tonight. Sunday morn
Ing; his subject will be "The Lord's
Supper;"' it night he will speak on
"Baptism," while the 3 p. m. service
tomorrow will be a general prayer and
praise meeting.

REV. B. F. CARPENTER'S WORK.
Joined Western. North Carolina Con
ference In Winston In 1898.
Referring to, the recent death of
Rev. B, F. Carpenter, pastor of Haletu
and Southsldit Methodist churches, the
Christian Advocato says: :
"Brother Carpenter was admitted on
trial In the Western North Carolina
Conference at Its session In Winston
In 1H98. He had therefore, been In
the regular work for nearly eight
years. He was a graduate of Trinity
College and was well equipped for the
work both In head and heart. Those
who knew him Intimately were always
Impressed with the perfect transparen
cy of his nature and his uncommon
devotion to the work of his calling. A
man of untiring energy, he never Idled
a moment, and In a quiet way always
brought thins tn nass. There was
never any doubt in the mind of those,
to whom ho ministered that be was a
man of deep piety and unreserved con
serration, The writer was hi presid
Ing elder during the first year of his
ministry and had ample opportunl!)
to see him tested by the necessity of
handling some difficult enterprises.
Ho never faltered even In the face of
apparently Insuperable difficulties.
"The death of tils gotxl man Is pe
cullarly sad. Cut down In the begin
nlng of what promised to be! a very
useful career, leaving-a young wife
and three llltlo children. Hut God
knows best, and out of It will doubt
less come glory to His nsme. May
God comfort the bereaved one and
deal tenderly with the little ones."
