Kennctt, and daughter of Mr. Leonard Fox and. his wife Mary, was borne near Belmont Factory, AUmance county, in 1869, and died August 13rd, 1891, being in her atnd year. She embraced religion in 1885, and soon thereafter became a member of the Methodist Protestant Church at Fauriew, which relation the sustained up to the time of her death. Looking from the merely human standpoint, the circumstances of the death of this christian young woman are sad, and it is only when it is remembered that "God moves in a mysterious way,' do we learn the lesson of submission to important to be understood. Deceased was married to Mr. W, R. Kennett on the 3rd day of Jane, 1 89 1, and on the same day. the two went on a bridal visit to Asheville, and something like two weeks later Zelia, the attractive and much loved young bride, was attacked with that direful disease, typhoid fever, with which nature and medical skill contended in vain for the space of two months There was no time during the progress of the disease when it could be said that her symptoms were better, and gradually life wore away, until Sun day morning, 11:30 o'clock, August 23rd) the end came. The deceased had a large number of relatives and friends, some far, some near, as to distance, fall of whom showed in what esteem and love they held her. The funeral services, which were held at 3 o'clock, August 24th. where' largely attended.' They were held in Fairview church, within too yards of which the deceased came to her end, and the burial was in the cemetery connected with the church. Rev. J. L. Michaux, of Greensboro, pronounced the funeral discourse and officiated in .the service at the grave. Those who have the most cause for sorrow at the early and apparently untimely end of Zelia, should stay themselves on the promises of God and endeavor to accept the painful visitation as coming from a Father who pitieth His children . and doth not willingly afflict or grieve them. ' My soul, wait thou only upon God for my expectation is from Him. " State Firemen's Association. The State Firemen's Association met in Durham on yesterday. Mr Howard E.

Attempted Arson. im nigm bdoui 11:30 0 ClOCk, a t ... i . ... most diabolical attempt was made to burn the house in which Mr. Harrv Poezolt resides, on Greene Street As Mr. James Donnell was leaving the house of Mr. W. A. Farris last night, where he had been calling, he discovered a light under Mr. PoesoU' house, lie immediately .went to the house and found that the house had been set ori fire. He crawled under the house and brought out the burning substance, which pioved to be a tin 'ard bucket filled with kerosene oil and soft coal. Whoever arranged the fuel intended that the work should be done well. The bucket containing the oil and coal bad been placed on another bucket in order that it might be nearer to the floor of the house and were certain to accomplish the object of burning the house and its contents All of the Poezolts are away from home,havinggone to Baltimore several nights ago. No damage was done owing to the very fortunate discovery of Mr. Donnell and his courageous act m going under the house after the burning subJtance. It i hard to realize the fact that a person would be so devoid of character and with such diabolical ' instincts as to burn up a house, but such people exist. The house belonged to Mr. David P. Foust, of this county. Willie Carter, a colored boy about 8; years old, was drowned yesterday morning in Welch's creek, a few hun dred yards from where it flows into the Cape Fear river, at Navassa Guano Factory.
