RUNAWAY
Two Young Mem Narrowly Escape
Injury. B
Demolished
A runaway that came near proving
fatal for one of the participant occurr
ed yesterday on Middle street shortly
after 10 o'clock.
Messrs Nicholas and Hoyt Robinson,
two young men from Pollocksville
came to the city yesterday morning
driving an animal t hat had lately been
broken to the harness and who was vey
fractious, While driving down Middle
street the horse became frightened at
an auto and began to . rear np, Mr.
Nicholas Robinson dismounted the
vehicle and caught hold of the briddle
in an attempt to quiet the animal but
this seemed to do very little good as
the horse gave a plunge and dragging
the young man, dashed into a pile-of
chairs in front of 3. S. Miller's This
upset Ro'oison, who letting go was run
over by the buggy, while his brother
thrown toward by the sudden halt fell
between the forard wheel and body of
vehicle on the axle, where unable to
move he was carried a'ong, the horse
dashing through the passage along side
of Scott's stable knocked off a rear
Wheel final y bringing up in a horse
stall. In entering this shed Hoyt barely
escaped having his head knocked against
the side of the entrance. A crowd rush
ed after the runaway, expecting to see
a mangled body. But very fortunately
both young men- escaped serious hurts.
Their elpthea were torn and they wsre
bruised but thsy behaved calmly, tho
the situation was one to upset strong
nerves. The horse was not injured. The
buggy was badly damaged,

On Sunday night May 8th the angels
came to the home of Mr. -and Mrs. Ed
wards in How Bern and bore to his
heavenly home tho fine spirit of their
darling boy James Melbille aged 2 years
and nine months. Though his precious
life was so brief on earth he had gained
the love of all who knew him, and I
have never known more sorrow over
the seperation from one so young. To
know him, waa to love him, his gentle
ways and beauty of person, won all
hearts, mama and papa are not all that
miss him.
Precious no more will the patter of
his little feet on the sttirway and the
sweet voice calling 'grandmother Lottie'
be heard to cheer our lonely hoars, but
In the city of our God we expect to
meet thee again, where no burning
fever, sickness, or parting can come
but where the lamb which is in the
midst of the throne shall lead then Info
living fountains of water and God shall
wipe tears from all faces. Ere sin had
touched his One soul God had his pise
prepared and called him to join the
throng of infant souls, who stand around
the great white throne we always
think of our darling in vary sweet strain
of music, and every beautiful flower,
which h loved so wall. The days seem

Mrs. Virginia Blackledge Harrison; 1

Mary Hatch Blackledge was horn in
New Bern, N. C., Aug. 26. 1MB, where
she lived -her whole life, aid passed!
away on March 16th 1910. Between
tnose dates la a record or a life of un
selfish devotion to God and' humanity
Born and rear in aflsench, the only
daughter spared her parent.; she was
cared for With anxious solicitude and
loving tenderness. Her education was
under th tutilag of Miaf Vartea
Moor, whose select school at that time
offered the very beat advantages New
Bern could give. Studious, conscienti
ous and faithful, she improved to the
utmost this opportunity for culture and
development When about 14 yean of
age, during a glorioiu revival of relig
ion in Centenary Methodist church she
gave her heart to God and His service.
connecting herself with that church of
which she waa to her last day with us,
A faithful and devoted member.
She waa married at an early' age to J.
M. F. Harrison, a most successful mer
chant planter. Every luxury was theirs,
having the most beautiful place in New
Bern then home only refused in High
Point during the raging of the civil war,
at the close of which, at this time after
these .several years of absence aha
found her beloved church, greatly de
teriorated in numbers and influence.
With her usual energy and determina
tion she set to herself the task of re
storing it to its forme position, and by
wise and helpful co-operation with her
pastor was successful in building up
' The waste places of Z ion. "
Left a widow at tbe ago of 27 years
with three small children, contending
with changed conditions, she entered
upon a heroic struggle to rear and edu
cate them which ahe accomplished most
successfully. Hor oldest daughter, Cot -inne,
after developing into a cultured,
brilliant woman, waa at an early age
called to her heavenly home. The two
living children are Miss Mary Hatch
Harrison, of New Bern, and Mr. Wtl
liam -Blackledge Harrison, of Chicago,
whose two children are her only grand
children. Her brother, Richard Black
lige survives ber. Her father and his
brother represented this section to U .
S. Congress and in this State from 1811
tt 1831.
Mrs. Harrison served in" helpfulness
several orgsnixttions formed for the
benefit of the poor and needy. It waa
in the parlor of her horn, that th La
dies Memorial Association was formed,
and she was ne of the charter memb
ers. She waa especially characterised
by a tender, loving sympathy with the
sick and afflicted, many can testify that
her labor in the sick room encouraged
many to recovery from serious illness.
It is known to a few oft her frknds
that an earnest prayer of her life had
been that a child of hers might preach
the word of God to all men. When in
1894 her youngest daughter returned to
New Bern after musical study, gave up
all tor her accepted work in Hi vine
yard and started th Christian Science
work here. Mrs. Harrison's interest in
the work increased constantly for as a

(Editorial from Goldsboro Argus)
The frienda of Judge W R Allen have
thought that they hod the right to pre
sent his name to the people of the State
and to ask that he be nominated for the
position of associate justice, and that
they could do this without suggestion of
any ulterior motive.
They have also thought that the peo
ple of the State had the right to name
the man they prefer, and that this right
was not taken from them by the fact
that the Governor had appointed Judge
Manning. '
The suggestion to the contrary is not
mode by tbe friends of Governor K itch in
but by the friends of Judge Manning,
and is on attempt to involve the Gover
nor in the contest.
The Durham Sun, published at Dur
ham, has sent out an editorial in behalf
of Judge Manning which, when analyz
ed; is not more than an appeal to t Ik
sympathies of the people upon the idea
that Judge Manning may be hurt if he
is not nominated, and an effort to induce
the friends of Governor Kitcbin to sup
port him by charging that the friends
of Judge Allen are trying to rebuke the
Governor.
The Sun mentions the fact that three
Judges have been appointed by Demo
cratic governors, who were not after
ward nominated by the people. All were
men of high character and ability, but
it was not regarded as a reflection upon
the governors who appointed them, nrr
upon the gentlemen themselves, that
they were not nominated. The argu
ment that the people must nominate
the men appointed by the Governor, ; nd
that it is a rebuke to him not to do so,
is subversive of our ideas of government.
From what source do s the Governor
obtain the power of appointment? The
answer is from the constitution. Wtv
made the constitution? The people.
The preamble to the constitution says.
"We, the people of the State of North
Carolina," do ordain and establish this
constitution for the better security of
our civil, 'political and religious liberties
Why did the people confer the power
of appointment on the Governor? Mani
festly because it was necessary for the
office to baft lied at all times, and-as tin
people Could not exercise their right of
selection except st a' general election,
they authorized the Governor to make
a temporary appointment, until they
should have the opportunity of exercis
ing their choice.
If this is not a correct view of the
constitution, why was net the Gover
nor invested with the power to appoint
for the full term of office? Why hold a
convention at all to nominate an asso
ciate juatice when the Governor ha?
made an appointment?
The friends' of Judge Manning nay he
has been appointor4, therefore he musi
be nominated, and all those who do noi
agree with them are rebuking the Gov
ernor.
Tbe office of associate justice of th
Supreme Court doe not belong to Gov
rnor Kltchin, Judge Manning nor Judgr
Allan, but to the people. Let them fill
On of th greatest evils of the day
is th tendency to concentrate power in
tbe hands of a few men, and to curtail
the rights of the people. Tbe people

right te nam their officer. Governor

are sure to now, an advocate of tbb
