Simonton in this city yester day when the Cape Fear and Yadkin Val ley railroad hearing in foreclosure pro ceedings was conducted. The suit was originally brought to foreclosure under the first mortgage, and the contest was whether the road should be sold as a whole or by divisions. The arguments were fin ished to-day, and Judge Simonton reserved his decision." Bishop's Tisitatioti. The Rt.

Every one cordially invited to attend. r . r Campbellton Club. The Campbellton Club met last night in their Club Room in Campbellton. The President, Alex. Strickland, was in the chair, and the Secretary, Mr. F. H. Over by, was at his post. After the transaction of important busi ness an election of members took place, and ten were added to the roll. A heated discussion on water, lights, etc., livened up the meeting, after. which the club adjourned. The next meeting will be held Friday night at 8 o'clock. The band was present and played some fine music for the Club. The "boys" say that they are ready for the coming cam paign, with their instruments in tune. The Guerrant Meeting. Dr. Guerrant's last sermon to the people of Fayetteville will be preached in the Ar mory Sunday night at 8 o'clock. The usual service of song will begin at half-past seven, and it will be well for all who wish for good seats near the speaker to go early. Dr.- Guerrant's sermons have been, all through the week, clear and forceful presenta tions of gospel truths. He has preached Jesus Christ and the efficiency of his atone ment for the salvation of any sinner. Last night Dr. Guerrant preached a pow erful sermon, taking for his text "Sir, I would see Jesus." It had a visible effect "upon his hearers, many of whom went up and professed religion. The sermon this morning was to the chil dren and young people. The earnest faces and eager responses of the little people are a lesson to us older ones. Dr. Guerrant is wonderfully gifted in speaking to children and held their attention througho ut. His text was, "Your adversary the devil goeth about as a roaring lion seek, ing whom he may devour," How often have we been reminded dur ing these services when so many little ones have come forward and taken God at his word, of our Saviour's warning : Ex cept ye become as little children, ye shall not enter the Kingdom. There were about fifty conversions at the close of the service. Mr. N. R. Walker, a well-known drum mer of Baltimore and popular with boys here, was in the city this morning. A gad Death. Little Blanche Kathline Watson, daughter of C. M. and Lizzie R. Watson, died last night at 9:30 o!clock of scarlet fever. Al though only a little over eight years old, she was a remarkably bright child, being able, among other things, to name every capital in the United States, Her father and mother took her to the Guerrant meeting Tuesday night, and upon reaching home the little one complained of being cold. She was taken sick that night and rapidly grew worse. The funeral will take place from the resi dence on Ramsey street at 5 o'clock this afternoon. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of the whole community. A Distinguished Architect Mr. Silas McBee, of New York (a North Carolinian by birth) is coming to Fayette ville next week on business connected with the erection of St. John's church, Parish House. While here it is contemplated to have him deliver his celebrated Lecture on church Architecture which has gained him such reputation North and West, where it has been given. His lecture is very interest ing and is illustrated by Steroptican views of the finest Cathedrals in Europe. The following we copy from the "Church man." On Monday evening, atthe Hotel Savoy, Mr. Silas McBee gave the first of his lectu res on Church Architecture. Mr. McBee's success as a lecturer is assured. His ef fotts are directed to tfte preservation o: the Gothic, as the ideal of church archi tecture, for this time, as for all others of past ages, when it has held its place as one of the most uplifting agencies in the church's work for the elevation of the human race. Mr. McBee's style is clear, his manner attractive. He had an audience representing the best of the social and intellectual forces of the city. His mas tery of his subject will secure attention everywhere, aside from the faet that bis topic will always be one of absorbing interest to Christian people. People and their Movements.
