The unfounded rumor was slow-
spreading, and a gentleman re-
ported that the church was
ready being overrun by the
and it was difficult to
keep them from the seats of the
white people and even the ladies.
At this juncture J. T. decided to
act at once. He turned in the
direction of the church and, to
the amazement of men who
drew near. entered, and with
a motion of his hand said be
quiet. Then he went through the
crowded house and up the aisle
without removing his hat. The
preacher, of course, saw him and
knew something was amiss and
discontinued reading his hymn.
The congregation was

the ladies to whom he lifted his

if a candidate can withdraw and
the vote already received be
transferred to another Or if
two more candidates can later
in the contest combine their
votes against a leader To both
of these questions the answer is
no. Votes once recorded and
cast in the lock-box prepared for
them cannot be changed. If a
candidate withdraws from the
race the vote of that candidate
cannot be counted for anyone
else, nor can there be any com-
of votes by two or more
candidates.
It is a fair and open contest,
and the piano is to be awarded
for the largest number of votes
secured by getting subscriptions
for The Reflector. Only one
candidate can win the piano, and
that one must have the largest
number of votes, but all the
others who work in the

so they will be paid for the work
they do. No need of any

MODERN HOTELS HELP
When Governor Jams was
speaking before Chamber of
Commerce at the last
Tuesday night, in mentioning
some of Greenville's needs he
said that the town was now in
need of nothing more than a
modern hotel, one in keeping
with growth of the town and
large enough to accommodate
the people who come here. In
this particular we cannot help
but feel a little envious of Rocky
Mount, though at the same time
we congratulate that town upon
what it has done in the hotel
line. The Ricks Hotel there,
which was completed a few
months ago, is the best and
handsomest hotel in Eastern
North Carolina, and would do
credit to a city of considerable
size. It is a construct-
ed brick building of three stories
and basement, and has seventy-
five bed rooms With convenient
baths. It is equipped with
ice plant and cold storage,
heating plant, and everything
for comfort and convenience.
Mr. T. L. Bland, a Pitt county
boy, is proprietor, and is con-
ducting the hotel with great
success. Me tells us that since
he opened the Ricks Hotel the
hotel patronage of Rocky Mount
has increased fifty percent.
that direction.
A valuable addition to North

in I his the publishers have
done admirably. l he poems of
Mr are gems, and the
publishers have given them such
artistic seating with beautiful
as to the book

a place in every Southern home.
North Carolina should feel proud
of such a production. Copies of

by addressing the publishers for
