Air. E. Harlowe, who lives about
miles from this place, had on
Tuesday, May 25th, during the
storm on that day a very thrilling
and exciting experience. While the
storm was raging, and the rain
coming down in sheats, a tongue of
ightning ran through a corner of
his dwelling making a hole through
a corner of the room, and remarka
ole as it seems bursted a package of
matches open but failed to ignite
them. Mr. Harlowe and his sister
were sitting in a very few feet of
the safe and felt the force of the
shock, and felt for some hours a pe
culiar sensation; a little dog in the
room was affected the same way.
On making its exit it ran through the
door, tearing ud the bottom step.
A rather peculiar feat was when it
struck a large oak tree before enter
ing the house, it struck a pair of
hames tearing the padding complete
ly off them, but not injuring the
bames otherwise.
Mr. Harlowe tells us that it was
the most frightful experience he has
ever had, and he expects to try and
be a better man.
Thoughtlessness to some people
seems to be a trifling thing, but
those who look at it from a more se
rious point, are aware that many
-nis-haps and accidents are invaria
bly caused from it. The world
could be made much brighter and
sweeter to us and others if only we
would be a trifle more thoughtful and
considerate, not for ourselves alone,
we are generally thoughtful enough
about self, but for others who we
must remember have feelings and
sensibilities peculiarly their own. We
are quite sure many of the accidents
and miii'ortunes of life could be a
verted, but for the fact we so often
forget that even little things should
enter into life in order to expand it
and develope it to its highest stan
dard. . ,
We have often noticed this old
habit of stripping bananas and
throwing the skins down on the
pavement or wherever we happened
ti be; along comes a young lady
with french heels, ignorant of bana
na peels, a step upon it, and lo! near
ly a fall upon hard pavement. And
it serves the man, the boy, and the
child just about as bad. This old
habit, how provokingly bad, for it
often makes people amazingly mad.

'ESCAPED FROM THE LAW."
Presented by the Scotland Neck Dra
matlc Club, a Great Success.
The Scotland Neck Dramatic Club
presented in the City Hall on Thurs
day evening, the 19th inst., "Escaped
from the Law." The presentation
was a success in everv particular,
each member of the cast played his
part most artistically, and the play
as a whole showed remarkable his
torianic ability. ,r;7
Miss Anna Clark as "Nannett"
was very charming and clever in her
emotional parts, and in her mad
scene she evicenced considerable dra
matic talent, gaining, in a most de
lightful way, the sympathy of the
audience when she was about to be
driven from a New York tenement
while her child was ill. Miss Clark
presented a very pleasing and finish
ed portrayal of the character.
Miss Anna Kitchin was unusually
good m the cnaracter of "Mrs. Dai
roy," the rich, good-looking, young
widow, She seemed to have some
trouble in getting a proposal from
John Middleton, but surely this was
on account of the extreme bashful
ness of the fellow, for she was most
charming in her freshness, and ad
mired because she refused to listen
to love as suggested by "General
Burleigh" because Mr. Dalroy had
not been dead two years yet."
As "Kitty" Mrs. A. L. Purrington
was exceedingly clever. . The part of
the French maid was perhaps the
most difficult one of the play, and
Mrs. Purrington's rendition won
much applause. Her mixture of
French and English in her pronunci
ation was all that could be desired,
even if she could not understand the
"tick a tick" language, and she was
good in her every movement through
out the play.
Little Miss Ellen Speed made a
sweet child and played the part of
Louise" with adroitness.
The members of the cast were all
good, perhaps Mr. H. L. McDowell
was most forceful in his character
"Michael Hatfield. His voice and
gesticulations were typical of the
depraved character, and his acting
was very pleasing. Mr. A. L. Pur-
rington as "General Burleigh," Mr.
G. C. Lamb as "John Middleton,"
Dr. J. E. Shields as "Felix Beau
plan" and Mr. Biggs Bryan as "Pat
rick Brannigan" were all up to the
standard and presented their charac
ters most admirably.
"Escaped from the Law" was a
play of unusual merit, and the play
ers are equal to many prefessionals.
It was a pleasure to have so clever
a company of theatrical artists in
our midst, and off the stage each
member fully sustained the reputa
tion of which Halifax County boasts.
We hope to have the same company
in a new play in our town at an early
date. Williamston Enterprise.

Little Tilings Tbat Count.
There are girls and the number
of them is not small - who to all in
tents and purposes regard their
mothers as conveniences, if not ac
tually servants, whose chief function
it is to wait upon them, to see that
they have a cup of coffee and a roll
berore they get out of bed of morn
ings; that their lingeri is all in proper
condition; that their buttons are all
sewed on, and their laces in the
right places; that their shoes are
polished, and their hats and ribbons
fresh. Girls of this class think little
and care less about the tired hands
and aching heads of their mothers.
It worries them not the least in the
world if the china is soiled and the
furniture and mantels dusty-mother
can look out for that. In their self
istness they look only for personal
ease, and become fretful and peevish
if required to lend a hand at the.
housekeeping;
That f retf ulness and peevishness
grows and becomes fixed habit, and
is carried into the girl's own home
when she marries, with the result
not infrequently that her husband
jams his hat on his head, slams the
door and goes down to take a drink
and get his dinner at a restaurant,
while his wife cries and feels that
she is a much abused creature. The
girl who is kind and considerate kof
her mother is invariably of a sunny,
sympathetic disposition; loyal affec
tionate and healthy minded. She is
a good daughter, and will make a
good wife. Savannah news.
"ANOTHER'S SHOES',
A Phrase Tbat Has Its Origin in an An
cient Custom.
The expression "stepping into an-,
other's shoes," like many another
common phrase, had its origin in an
ancient custon?.
The old Norse law required that a
person to be adopted must step into
a previously prepared shoe. This
shoe was made from the skin taken
from the right hind leg of a "three-winters-old
bull."
- The skin was flayed from above the
hock, and out of this the shoe was
made. The person to be adopted
stepped into this shoe, taking into
his arms one at a time, it is presum
ed, the younger sons of the man
making the adoption. If there were
also sons who were of age they step
ped into the shoe afterward, by this
sign showing their consent to the
adoption.
A man in the way coulrl adopt an
illegitimate son, making him his law
ful heir, but in that case the father ;
was obliged to step into the shoe
first. If there were a&y full grown
sons, they stepped into the shoe af
terward; if there were no full grown
sons; then the next of kin did the
stepping, and without his consent,
by the way, this special adoption
could not be made.
Witnesses to the ceremony in the
use of the shoe were required to es
tablish its legality.
It will be seen that this was con
sidered an important ceremony, and
since so much "shoe stepping" was
done it is not strange that the ex
pression as now used passed into
common speech. Chicago Record
Herald. Deatb cf Helen White.
On the morning of Saturday, May
21st., the Death Angle entered the
home of Mr. and Mrs. John J. White,
No. 2222 Jefferson Ave, Richmond,
Va., and carried the spirit of dear
little Helen, aged five years, three
months and twenty-one days, to its
eternal home.
For just a few days prior to her
death, Helen had been confined to
her room with measles, bronchical
pheumonia developed, and hours of
intense suffering, during which time
loving hands administered every
remedy known to alleviate her pain,
the dear little one fell sweetly asleep
in Jesus, who said in the long ago,
"Suffer the little ones to come unto
me, and forbid them not, for of such
is the kingdom of heaven."
Helen was the third child of Mr.
and Mrs. White. She is survived
by a brother, Harold, and a sister,
Dorothy older than herself, also by
a brother John, youngerj
She was a beautiful child, loved
by all who knew her. On Sunday,
just a week before her little spirit
departed, the little darling was in her
place at Sunday school and also at
the Rosebud Society, of which she
was a devoted member.
Helen was rarely developing a
tender and effectionate nature. She
dearly loved to help mother, and in
her sweet little ways won her way
straight to the hearts of both old and
young.
Many a little child dropped a tear
upon the little casket, and said "we
shall miss her," while the older one's
spoke in tender tone's of their sorrow
at the thought of not seeing Helen
again.
To the father and mother the
warmest sympathy of everybody is
extended, and we lovingly commend
them and their little ones to our
kind Hevenly Father, and bid them
look up through their tears to the
"land beyond" where they may clasp
their dear one in their arms again
and meet an unbroken family circle
around the throne of God.
Rev. R. H. Potts, of Union Station
M. E. church conducted the funeral
service. Miss Sue Hogan sweetly
sang "Safe in the arms of Jesus."
The little casket was tenderly
lowered into a grave in Oakwood
Cemetery, which grave we left kiss
ed by the rays of the evening sun,
covered with many a flower.
These blossoms will fade and pass
into nothingness, their mission
having been filled; but the memory
of the little bud lying beneath will
never die, but will ever be surround
ed by sweetest thoughts, and prove
another tie that binds our hearts to
Heaven. TTT

.RDGUDcing His Candidacy For Cor
poration Commissioner.
To the Democrats cf North Caro
lina: I adopt this method of making
known to the Democrats of the
State the fact that my name will
be presented to the next Democratic
State Convention for nomination as
Corporation Commissioner to succeed
Hon. Samuel L. Rogers, whose term
expires next year.
If chosen by the Convention, which
means election at the polls, I propose
to serve every citizen of the State,
whether natural or artificial. My
object will be to promote the welfare
and business prosperity of the peo
ple of all classes and conditions, while
I shall be watchful to protect the
people from oppression. The
enormous growth of corporation
powers and influence in ail things
political, social, eneonomical and
even educational should warn us that
the side of safety for public rights
lies in the careful selection of public
agents who are at least free from
obligation to those whose interests
are to come before them for adjudi
cation and control. Without in
timating that our convention could
mistake its man and certainly with
out disparagement of any possible
candidate. I claim for myself to be
wholy free from any alliance with
those corporations for whose regu
lation it was the purpose of the
statute creating the Corporation
Commission.
Mr. H. C. Brown, who has been ap
pointed by Gov. Kitchin to fill the
unexpired term of the late Mr.
Aycock (since my firt announce
ment in the State papers some two
months ago) has stated his intention
of being a candidate to succeed him
self. Unquestionably the successor
of Mr. Rogers should be chosen, f r?m

account of the Coleman-Whiiley
marriage:
Richhard Edward Coleman of New
Bern, N, C. and Miss Bessie Viola
Whitley of Fourth street,were united
in marriage at the home of the bride's
parents at high noon yesterday.
The nuptial knot was tied by Rev.
George W. Co'x, of Burrows Memorial
Baptist church, during which the
wedding march was played by Mrs.
Herbert Miller. Miss Effie Whitley,
sister of the bride, filled the role as
maid of honor and Henry Coleman
was the best man. The bride was
attired in a handsome going away
gown of steel gray with hat and
gloves to match. The ceremony was
followed by a wedding dinner. Mr.
and Mrs. Coleman left yesterday
for New Born, the home of the
groom.
Mr. and Mrs. Coleman came by
Scotland Neck and spent a day and
night with Mr. Coleman's parents,
