A press dispatch from Asheville, says :
"There was a great array of legal talent
in the United States court there before
Judge C H. 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."

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.
