NOVEMBER 7, 1902. It was our pleasure to hear the gifted editor of the Ral eigh Christian Advocate. Dr. i T. N. Ivey, on Sundaj at the 11. E. Church. Large and at- ' tentive congregations listened | to this man of Qod at each ser- i ▼ice. In the morning he choas for his text: "Give none of- ' fence to the Church of Qod." 1 The topical outline of his dis- ( course was: "The Church —lts Age, Constituency; Leader- j ship: Motives." It was a clear, foieiblc presentation of an all- ' important theme, and the man ner in which each phase of the subject WHS treated easily plac ed him among the great preach ers of the Stale. '' At the evening service, "The! 1 Power of the Gospel," as em pi I lied in the life of St. Psul , and in that of thousands of I others, was the subject of a ' powerful sermon. Although P young in years he is one of the i Ktrongest and inns' pVentfiC-j, tors in the advancement of | Methodism in North Carolina.': and any people are to be con- 1 gratulated when they can have him in their mid-t. Socially, Dr. Ivey is charm ing in manner; and with a mind , stored full of rarest gems col- 1 lected from liteiature and in 1 extensive travel, he delights, instructs and entertains- We regret the shortness of his visit, and ho|ie to have him return at an early day. The great need of some ap paratus with which to fight ti res is made more appareut each time a lire occurs in our town, for no people are more ready to give their help than are our citizens, especially the youug men of all conditions of life. But M) often the lack of buck ets, ladders, w.iter supply, etc., impede the workers. These ne cessary things could he secured without such an enormous out —an outlay which, compar ed t» IIM good Is be derived therefrom, would be small. All apparatus could be under the supervision of the chief of police wh;» could lead tlie tight to be made by volunteers. An other advantage would be ui the saving in insurance rates. To keep abreast with the pro gress, we should organise along all Hues that will help the 'own. Williamston ha* suffered so many disasters in the past, that there is no need of any other object lesson to convince the people of the import ant neces sity of some movement in this direction. It has been urged time after time but nothing has been done yiet. No better lime than now. THE STATE SAFELY DEMOCRATIC. «,§. Authentic rep rts give the fifths of the Legislature is Dem ocratic. All ten of the Con gressmen were elected, and W. W. Kitchen carried every county in his district, the fifth. Walter Clark, nominee for Chief Justice, did not lose more than 5,000 votes in all the State, and these failed to vote for the indejiendeut candidate, Hill. The honest manhood of North Carolina has won an other victory against those who would shame the old North State into dust. From returns it is estimated that not more than 6,000 negroes voted. John H. Small. Congressman I from the First district, waa overwhelmingly re-elected. The State is all right and Democrats and alf others who want good government at home have a right to be joyful. Deal—Aai Very Dead. The handful of politicians who persuaded Thos. N. Hill, Esq.,that he had a chance of being elect ed Chief Justice will have an interesting time reconciling tbeir predictions with the vote cast. Per haps they will not try it When Mr. Fabius M. Bnsbee went up to vote at his precinct, he said: "I intend to vote for Thos. N. Hill for Chief Justice. He is a dead straight man. "There is no doubt about his be ing dead," said Mr. John W. Thompson, member of the Demo cratic State Executive Committee. And those present smole a smile. —News & Observer. A President's Position. Itoston. Mass., Oct. 29 —In an article written for the Youth's Companion, which will l>e publish ed next week, Theodore Roosevelt gives his ideas of the duties and responsibilities of the president of the United States. Mr. Roosevelt wrote the article in 1900 and prev ious to the republican national con vention which nominated him for j vice-president. In it Mr. Roosevelt j savs: "The president of the United States occupies a position of pecu liar importance. In the whole world there is no other ruler, cer tainly no other ruler under free in stitutions, whose power compares with his. Of course there is the enormous |iersonal factor of the in cumbent himself to be considered entirely apart from the power of the office itself. This is merely another way of stating that in any office the personal question is al ways of vital consequence. The senators are the constitu tional advisers of the president Tlie secretaries who form the cabi net advise hini on matters of gener al policy wlien he so desires it. With the senate the advice and con sultation are obligatory under the constitution. The senate has no right to dictate to the president who shall be appointed, but they have an entire right to say who shall not he appointed, for under the constitution this has been made their duty. - -f* Although many men most share with the president the responsibility there is upon hiui a heavy burden. It is easy enough to give a bad admin istration, but to give a good admin istration demands the most anxious thought, no less than very unusual power of mind. "There is every reason why the president should be held to a sharp accountability alike for what he does and for what he leaves un done. But we injure ourselves and the nation if we fail to treat with proper respect the man who, !»n the highest office in our laud, is | striving to do his duty. We have had presidents who have acted weakly or unwisely in particular cri>is, but we have never had one concerning whose personal integri ty there was so much as a shadow of suspicion. Appointments and | policies which are normally routine 1 and unimportant may suddenly be . come of absolutely vital conse i qucnce. The war department was 1 utterly neglected for over thirty I years after the civil war. Neither , the regular officer nor the regular , soldier takes any part in the poli ciea as a rule, ao that the dema gogue and bread-and-butter poli tician have no fear of his vote; and to both of them, and also to the cheap, sensational newspaper, the 1 army offers s favorite aabject for ' attack. . harder tasks than that of filling . well and ably the cfioe of preside* of the United State* Bat if th man at the dose of has ten* is able to fed that he has done his duty well he has the aaljafartina of feel ' ing that he has performed one al the great worid tasks aad that the mere performance is ia itself the greatest of all pwaible rewards." rfaaples, Hopes, it—ihnS. or aay blood or Am i»n«r.

Now, unhappily, there pstiil just a shade of the brntafity of its origin, for it was bora of owelty, heartleasness aad pais—a sort of taint of "original aaa." that dvi lizatioa, kiadliaua of heart, aad Christian cnltare ate year by year refining oat df it. The a Mama's appreciation of hunaor ia far more refined than ia the same aenae in her more liuirttreaa yoke-fellow. Even Mr. Howell's wanwnkiail who certainly do delight all SMB by their lodkronsobtaseness in hu morous sit nations, owly fsfl to see the "joke" when their womanly sympathy la greater than their (in ception of the ridicwloas. While the nu laughs at the coarical pre dicament in which his friend is placed aa the result of a psuctkal joke, until the lean stream from his eyes, the tears from the wo man's sympathetic heart fill her eyes before the laughter, welling up from the twin spring, can ripple across her lips. It isn't because her appreciation of hnmor is either atrophied from disease or has not yet developed that she cannot en joy the humor of iudtcrously pain ful situations. It is rather because this sense in her is sensitive, deli cate, sympathetic, refined to the highest culture. True humor de lights her, while buffoonry, if it be brutal, shocks her; and if it be mere innocent tooling, does not in terest her.—Robert J. Bunlette, in Harper's Bazar. ■ .... » ♦ » ■ n Hancock '■ Liquid Sulfjhu cam (kin troubles of every aatax. No kone should be wit boot H. Ask yoar ami haata for a book on Liquid Salpkar. Sold by C. I>.

This peculiar property is poases sed only by the diodon and the te trodon, two allied families of tropi cal fishes which are popular known as globe fish. The tetrodon is also found off the coasts of Cornwall and Ireland. The faority is due to the fact that the ab domen of these fishes is much loos er than it is on the back, and they have the power to inflate this loose skin by swallowing air through the gullet. This of conrae enables them to torn over at will, and, although the great French naturalist Cnvier did net believe that when In this position they could swim as they pleased, Dar win corrected him and prosed that they conld swim both forwmd aad backward ia tide position. It is Jo# course %ett known that the shark aad dm itng flak, owing to the peculiar position of the un derjaw, are obliged to turn on their backs before they can seise their prey, and while hi this poahtoa they are able to swim fern very considerable distance. This, how | ever, is doaw by the muscular force of the fins and taQ aad not through any special apparatus. such aa the globafiab possesses — Ans ■ were. 1- * •1 • ~ \ Sale of Valuable Property.

The weather could not have been better if it had been made to order. The exhibita were op to the usual standard, and the attendance was the largest erer known. The midway was net quite so wholesome as the advance notices had indicated, hut such an improvement over the foul aggre- Igation of last year that no one felt like kicking. And now that Prcs i lent Long is continued at tl-e head of the organisation, we feel sure that this year's standard will be either maintained or improved neit year.—Progressive Farmer. ' Rev. J.

She returned Monday morning to resume her duties as teacher in the Bethel High School. Quite a number of our people went to Williamston last Friday to see the circus. As is generally the case, the show was not what it was represented to be, and except ing a very few redeeming features, it conld be fairly characterized as a "Bom Show." The election Tuesday passed off very quietly. There was no ex citement or disturbance of any kind and not a single colored man voted. How does this stike you for a re cord of Robersonville township ? It is to be hoped that the rest of the tow—hips of the county will be able to say as mtnch^ The European Tea Party, at the residence of Mr. and Mis Graham Gail ford, will be the attraction for Friday evening. The object for which this party is given, the lib rary land, merits the sanction and support, and should appeal to the geuciuaa natures of afl the good of the town. Another social gathering, a se quel to the birthday party of Miss Morton, was given Tuesday even lag at the wnlwtt of Mr. J. C.
