Halifax, May 6. A verv rcerot- able as well as an unfortunate acci dent happened on the Roanoke river on Tuesday, April 29th, in which Mr. George A. Stephenson lost his life. Mr. Stephenson had engaged a negro by the name of John Red mond to row him up to Welden where he was to meet a friend from Rocky Mount and they left the Hal ifax ferry somewhere about one o'clock and rowed leisurely up the river for a distance of about four miles, the meanwhile Mr. Stephen son was standing up in the stern of the boat, this being his favorite me thod of rowing, when without warn. ing he pitched headlong Into the river soon disappearing from sight. ttio negro with him being powerless to rescue bim. The water at that particular point was deep and swift, and the darkey states that he could' not get the boat within reach of the drowning man before he was lost to siht for the last time. The negro rowed hurriedly back here and irave the information and a party left im mediately to search for the body but could neither see nor find anything or it that day. Each day after ef forts were made to locate the bodv by dredging, but without success. On Friday dynamite was used but did not bring the body to the sur face. Constantly some one was on the lookout, so on Sunday afternoon tha body was located at the "Navv Yard" a short distance from tho Halifax ferry. The remains were prepared for burial being placed away beside his wife who preceeded him about two years ago, in the Me thodist cemetery, where a large group of friends and loved ones had gathered to pay the last tribute. Mr. Stephenson lived from boy hood here and was familiar with every nook and corner of the old town, as well as the surrounding country. From early boyhood he had been unusually fond of hunting and fishing and whenever the oppor tunity afforded he embraced it. He was very suct-essful with the gun and rod. He had been on the old Roanoke perhaps thousands of times before with this last fatal tim ae. cidents had happened to him before, as several time he had been capsized ! but reached the boat or banks in safety. The deceased was a man of manv j excellent qualities, he loved his fel low man, was a very friendly friend, end sought to render a fellow a good turn and as a consequence he had many friends. For many years he stood behind the counter here for Messrs Chas. Froelich and Co., Hale Brothers, snd others, and during that liine identified himself with many in this section who liked to do business with him. Some few years ago he went to Rocky Mount, being employed by the A. C. L., and hd worked himself up a good bit with the company and was entrusted with many important tasks. He made many friends in that place. Those surviving him are as follows: Capt. J. N. Stephenson, of Rocky Mount, a brother: Georare A. Jr..' of South Carolina, a son; Misses Margaret and Louise, daughters; and three other sons, Edward, Frank and little Thomas. The unfortunate accident has cast a gloom over our town and affected many who liked him for his better qualities. W. F. C.

Strong, rigorous men and women tardly ever catch cold; It's only when the system is run down and vitality low that colds and coughs get a foothold. Now isn't it reasonable that the i right way to cure a cough is to build j up your strength again? r.irs. uiivia rdruaui, ji jaai. uur ham, N. C, says: '"I took Vlnol for a chronic cough which had lasted two years, and the cough not only disap peared, but it built up my strength, as well." The reason Vinol is so efficacious in Euch cases is because it contains in & delicious concentrated form all the. medicinal curative elements of cod liver oil, with tonic, blood-building Iron added. Chronic coughs and colds yield to Vinol because it builds up the weak ened, run-down system. You can get your money back any time if Vinol does not do all we say. P. S.
