BRYAN GRIMES CAMP 
CONFEDERATE VETERANS 
HOLD AL REUNION. 
Large Crowd 
Speech by Mr. 
This Memorial Day dawned bright 
and balmy, and at an early hour 
were coming in town to attend 
the reunion of Bryan Grimes Camp 
of Confederate veterans. 
Before the hour of assembling, the 
veterans met and chatted each other, 
while the visitors sought out places 
of advantage to view the parade. 
At ten o'clock the line formed on 
Third street near the court house 
square, and headed by a drum corps 
marched out Evans and Ninth streets 
to the Star warehouse, where the ex- 
took place. There were about 
veterans in line. 
At the warehouse a large crowd 
had assembled, the Daughters of the 
Confederacy and Children of the 
Confederacy also going in a body. 
Here Mr. R. W. King, chairman of 
the committee of arrangements, call- 
ed on Rev. C. M. Rock for the in- 
vocation. 
An address of welcome to the 
tors, eloquent and cordial, was de- 
livered by Mayor F. M. Wooten. 
Major Harding, Commander of 
Bryan Grimes Camp, responded to 
the address of welcome, and extend- 
ed greetings to his comrades. 
A class from the Training School 
sang 
was followed with a recitation

Spain, of the graded school, and 
Conquered by Miss 
Herndon. 
on the Old Camp 
was sung by the Training School 
class, which was followed with a 
recitation to Conquered Ban- 
by Miss Nina Harris. 
Mr. J. B. James then in 
ate words introduced the orator of 
the day, Mr. Albion Dunn. Mr. Dunn 
in recounting the deeds of valor of 
Lee and Jackson, made one of the 
most brilliant Memorial Day ad- 
dresses that the veterans of Pitt 
county have had the pleasure of 
hearing at any of their reunions. In 
concluding ho paid a beautiful 
to Gen. Bryan Grimes in whose 
honor the camp of Pitt county is 
named. The Reflector would have 
been glad to print the speech in full, 
but its length forbid that, and it was 
too excellent to give In broken ex- 
tracts. It was a master piece of 
oratory and those who heard it en- 
Joyed a feast. 
At the conclusion of Mr. Dunn's 
admirable address, Commander H. 
Harding stated to the camp that 
the only compensation the ladies and 
others requested in return for this 
day's pleasure provided for the old 
soldiers, was that they should give 
the and when the com- 
came the yell sounded with 
spirit. 
There were then cries from the 
camp for and our 
citizen responded in a few 
words of cheer and Incidents of the 
war in which they fought together. 
After the speaking, Rev. C. W. 
Ware pronounced the benediction, 
and as the Training School class 
sang Be With You Till . We

I retire with a profound sin-

Mr. R. C. White has purchased my

Mr. White, assisted by Mr. Charlie

and the material wealth and 
happiness of our state will know 
no bounds. Indeed this part of our 
dear old state will become one of the 
garden spots of the world 
In the last twelve months I have 
been through our country to 
in to 
sin In the northwest, on through the 
southern states to Mississippi, and 
can truthfully say to you I have not 
seen a section with greater 
ties than we have here at home. I 
see no reason why we should not 
have here as prosperous, as happy a 
people as the world in all her full- 
can produce. Our climate for 
the twelve months is as fine as can 
be found; our soil is rich or lends; 
itself to fertility, and the native i 
of our people is as great as any , 
to be found. The key to success for 
us in EDUCATION spelled in cap-1 
We are about the most 
people on the American 
continent, and we will remain so if 
we awake to our opportunities. But 
if we do not awake to our 
ties, struggling humanity in less 
localities will straggle in and 
take possession by degrees and our 
sons and daughters will gradually 
sell their birthright for a mess of 
pottage. 
Friends let me insist upon it, the 
safe guard of our liberties and the 
key to our prosperity, is education. 
But our people will never be prop- 
educated until the teachers have 
been properly trained for this 
serious civic duty. It is 
a conscious realization of this 
that our state hag established 
is maintaining the school at Gr 
ville. You may call me an 
a crank, if you will, but the b 
den of my life, yes, my life, 
is in this work. I care not 
riches, or honor, but I do care 
that little child, who is soon to 
the stern responsibilities of 
I want him to be able to face th 
responsibilities with the 
that will enable him to cope 
them successfully. Fellow teachers, 
do you, not see the responsibilities 
resting upon your shoulders Are 
you prepared to meet those 
as they should be met I 
am not making this plea to get you 
to get go to Greenville, God forbid that 
I should be so base, but, I do appeal 
to you from a conscious realization 
of the responsibilities resting upon 
you to make the preparation you 
to meet with success the noble work 
you are now undertaking and I don't 
care where you get your preparation, 
just so you get it. But the trained 
teacher must have the support of 
the people. 
The hope of our state is in the 
education of its youth and the hope 
of this education is In the trained 
teacher. 
Get the knowledge necessary and 
couple with that knowledge a high 
and noble purpose and your efforts 
will be crowned with success. 
A Card. 
I offer myself a candidate for 
mayor of our town, and trust that 
the people may see fit to elect me 
to the office for the next term. And 
if elected, it is my purpose to de- 
vote my time to the work of the of- 
and living in the open air as 
much as possible. 
I shall keep office in the office 
building now being built by Jno. L. 
Wooten. I am sincerely grateful to 
every one of you for both your pat- 
and your confidence which 
you have given me.

MRS. DIKE DYING A PAUPER.
Former Wife of Tobacco King is Pass,

Chicago, May Alice Webb 
Duke, former wife of Brodie L. Duke, 
multi-millionaire tobacco king 
and six years ago mistress of a for- 
tune of nearly is dying 
a pauper in the Illinois State Hos- 
for the Insane at Kankakee. 
Friendless, forgotten by those up- 
on whom she squandered thousands 
of dollars in the days of her affluence, 
forgetting herself both the years of 
her wealth and the years that 
ed her down to her present condition 
of misfortune, and remembering only 
the time of her youth, Mrs. Duke lies 
waiting for the summons that will 
end her spectacular career. 
Alice Webb, daughter of a 
New York family, was raised 
in a Buffalo orphan asylum. Leaving 
there to make her own living when 
she was only sixteen years old, she 
proved her exceptional talents for 
business. Before she was thirty she 
had established herself as one of the 
leading oil promoters of Texas. Her 
connection with tobacco industry 
brought about her acquaintance with 
Brodie L. Duke, who already had 
teen married twice and was the 
father of two grown daughters. 
In November, 1905, she met Duke. 
On December 1905, they were mar- 
clandestinely. Duke established 
bis wife In sumptuous apartments in 
the Winton Hotel, gave her a summer 
home in the Adirondacks and 
rounded her with all the luxuries 
money could buy. On January 1906, 
through the action of his brother, 
Benjamin Duke, president of. the to- 
trust, and Brodie L. Duke's two 
daughters, the bridegroom was torn 
from the arms of his wife and com- 
to Belleville. 
When he was released his temper 
toward Mrs. Duke had been changed. 
Finally driven by his attitude, she 
applied for a divorce with alimony, 
but hast the case. After that she 
started on an independent financial 
career which closed with her arrest 
here on the charge of passing bogus 
checks. She afterward was commit- 
to the State Hospital for the In- 
sane, where has been since 
1909. 
Richest City in the Country. 
It is a popular impression that 
Newport, R. I., is the richest town in 
the United States in proportion to 
its population, and undoubtedly the 
are more millions there than in y 
other place on this side of the 
tic, or, perhaps, In the entire world; 
but that class of residents only spend 
their money there; they make it els 
where, the same might be said of the 
suburbs of Boston, like 
Tuxedo, near New York; 
Philadelphia; Lake Forest, near Chi- 
Santa Barbara or i 
Cal., where the idle rich have gather- 
ed to rest and recreate. 
Victoria, Tex., probably has a 
amount of wealth per capita 
any of the towns I hare named, 
and it is actual money which has 
been made there, or in that 
ate vicinity, by men who were ti 
and brought up in the town and ex- 
to have it their homes, and, ii. 
appearance, customs and it tide it la 
very different from Newport The 
wealth of Victoria has been c 
on land, from raising and 
sheep and goats. It's a cow town. 
In that little city of not more 
population are eight million- 
probably thirty or forty persons 
who are worth more than 
or an average of each, and at 
equal number who are worth 
in lands, cattle, stocks and bonds

speculation and made honestly

And the usual way of taking

J. B. JAMES FOR MAYOR. 
It Is Time There Was A Change. 
Can Win. 
Editor 
The time has come when the cit- 
of Greenville must elect a may- 
or for the next two years. I have 
heard of no candidate, except the 
present incumbent, and many of my 
neighbors think another man would 
give more general satisfaction, and 
having cast my eye over the field. 
I think I can name a candidate who 
can win easily and satisfy all dis- 
elements. 
My candidate Is J. B. James. He 
was born and raised In Greenville, 
his life Is known to all our citizens. 
has the character, manhood, 
cation, ability and backbone to make 
an ideal mayor. Lets elect him. 
meets your approval, talk it 
your neighbors, go tell Burt you arc 
for him, ask him to come out as a 
candidate and we will nominate and 
elect him by a large majority.

The Court of Justice. 
There has come to an end In the 
state of New York a law suit which 
affords a striking Illustration of the 
inefficiency of the American judicial 
and lawmaking systems. 
The plaintiff and defendant married 
and became partners in 
were unable to agree, 
quarreled and went to law. That was 
In 1888. Ever since they have been 
fighting the case back and forth 
through the courts. The expense in- 
aggregates half a million 
most of which was paid to the 
lawyers that were employed, from 
time to time. Death has claimed 
of the judges before whom the case 
was brought, as well as of the 
witnesses. The final decision 
came only a few days ago, after 
years of 
Of course, this case is a rare 
and its duration is undoubtedly due 
primarily to the obstinacy and 
of the litigants. But if 
there was not a good cause for action 
the case should have been thrown out 
of court at If there was 
a good cause for action It should not 
have been possible to delay the 
awarding of Justice for years and 
pile up half a million dollars of ex- 
Leader. 
Intimidation of Witnesses. 
The Mount Airy News says Inti- 
of witnesses is common in 
portions of Surry county, and that in 
two cases at the recent term of Surry 
court persons were convicted of in- 
witnesses. The Judge 
gave the defendants choice of 
days in jail or fines of and costs. 
The fines were paid, of course. We 
don't know the maximum penalty In 
such cases, but it would seem that 
this punishment was light, consider- 
the gravity of the offense. If the 
Jurors and witnesses may be 
dated then the whole machinery of 
the courts falls down and criminals 
can defy the Land- 
mark.

All sections are taking note that 
the south is going forward. Not 
alone is this recognized within its 
; borders where manufacturers are in- 
i creasing, where the are better 
I cultivated and are producing more, 
where new and beautiful homes are 
daily arising, where banks are 
i creasing, where cities are getting 
; more city like, but the outside 
world is giving evidence that it too 
j sees that the south moves to a tidal 
; wave in its progress. 
Just recently the railroads of the 
j south Lave inaugurated a movement 
; to build up along their systems and 
to in work for bring- 
I in an increased number of set- 
; tiers, to apply to the south the plan 
i the western roads have applied so 
j successfully to the west. That

realize that the south is a most in- 
field and will exploit its ad- 
vantages. 
The gains In and In 
wealth made by the south set out in 
i the census publications, are being 
commented on widely by the press 
of the north and east, and this is 
directing more attention to the south 
for it is advertising of the kind that 
invites consideration, coming 
solicited. These comments are at- i 
; trading the eyes of the world to the i 
; and there is the confident feel- 
j that what the south readily j 
; done is but a small to what the 
I future holds in store for It That we 
go forward is being recognized by the 
world as a fact, not as a thing as- 
And nothing succeeds like 
success. 
Along this line of thought the fol- 
lowing from Leslie's Weekly will In-

the Panama Canal will bring to the 
country will be reaped by the south

Wilson at Norfolk. 
don't recall any speech 
rod in this country within ten years 
that Is at once so classical and states- 
manlike as that which Dr. Wilson 
delivered at Norfolk. Whether it 
considered from the standpoint of 
literature, or whether it be 
from the standpoint of a political 
student, it is entirely a gem. It 
would equally be worthy the study 
of young men striving to master the 
art of cogent and 
and of the meditation of old 
men who feel that there is some- 
thing amiss, but are not resolved as 
lo what it is. Dr. Wilson frankly 
calls himself a radical, and he is. 
Rut is a constructive rather than 
a destructive radicalness. He rec- 
the service and need of 
formulas, but he denies that the mat- 
of a century's progress is of no 
consequence in determining the 
of a formula. He perceives, as 
every philosopher must, that cosmic 
force have wrought revolutionary 
changes In our economic, political 
and social life, and that the law, the 
practice, the custom which was good 
a century ago is, for the very reason 
it was good a century ago, bad 
now. Here is a man of splendid 
pulse, of penetrating and illuminating 
intellect, with a quick sympathy and 
with a courage capable of great en-

The grotto is the subject of one of 
the most grandiloquent pass- 
ages in the writings of Samuel John- 
son, who remarks that the poet, 
under the necessity of making a 
subterranean passage to a garden on 
the other side of the road, adorned it 
with fossil and dignified it 
with the title of a a place of 
silence and retreat from which he 
endeavored to persuade his friends 
and himself that cares and passions 
could be excluded. A is not 
often the wish or pleasure of an 
Englishman, who has more frequent 
need to solicit than exclude the sun, 
but Pope's excavation was requisite 
as an entrance to his garden and as 
some men try to be proud of their 
defects, he extracted an ornament 
from an inconvenience and 
produced a grotto, where necessity 
enforced a passage. 
The grotto must have had strong 
claims upon its owner's regards, for 
it was a shrine of friendships Almost 
all the decorations were contributed 
by friends and admirers. The 
of Cleveland presented clumps 
of amethyst and pieces of spar; Dr. 
the Cornish antiquary, sent 
native diamonds and ores; 
procured red spar from lead mines; 
Spence gave pieces of lava especially 
brought from Mt. Vesuvius, and 
of marble from the grotto of 
Gilbert West sent 
Sir Hans Sloane, some fine 
fragments of basalt from the 
Causeway, while less famous friends 
contributed antique from Egypt

from Brazil, coral, humming

GREENVILLE, N. C, FRIDAY, MAY M, 1911.

THE E. C. T. T. S. 
The commencement exercises of 
East Carolina Training 
School began Sunday morning with 
the annual sermon which was 
preached by Rev. Charles E. Maddry, 
pastor of the Statesville Baptist 
church. All the churches of the 
town were closed and a very large 
assembled in the 
of the Training School. 
At o'clock the student body led 
by the marshals filed Into the hall 
and filled the front seats, the 
ting class occupying the first row. 
The service began with singing two 
stanzas of Thou Almighty 
by the school and audience, 
and Rev. J. H. Shore, pastor of the 
Methodist church, offered prayer. 
This was followed by a beautiful an- 
them sung by the school. 
Rev. Charles E. Maddry read the 
37th chapter of Exodus, the story of 
Joseph's dream, the resultant envy 
of his brethren and subsequent sale 
to Egyptian slavery, and took for his 
text Gen. the Lord was 
with Joseph and he was a prosperous 
The dedicatory of the masterly 
eloquent sermon which followed was 
a comparison of Joseph's life to a 
musical Impediments, the 
tangle and the open. Joseph, he 
said, was an never lost 
hope, though at a time in his career 
he was plunged into the very depths 
of a dungeon. The difference between 
the optimist and the pessimist is the 
failure of the latter in the ability to 
see. The world's great need in this 
new century is more 
who see. 
A scene unusual in Greenville's his- 
and as beautiful as it was novel, 
was that presented by the 
class of East Carolina Teach- 
school in their 
that were held on the campus 
Monday evening. A large crowd had 
assembled in the grove on the west 
end of the campus, and it seemed as 
if nature had selected the spot for 
special occasion. A more beautiful 
and fitting selection could not have 
been made. 
At o'clock the entire school filed 
out of the administration building and 
to the music of the Washington 
band, marching in double column 
down the widening walk through the 
lawn, then around by the park into 
which they circled to the place 
for the exercises. Every girl 
was dressed in spotless white and 
they made a beautiful picture as 
they marched in perfect step to the 
music. The school was divided in 
classes, the freshmen leading, each 
class bearing a banner with the year 
in which it would graduate. The 
class of 1911 came in the rear, en- 
closed in a rope of bamboos en- 
twined with white roses, the class 
flower. 
Reaching the place wired off for 
the class exercises, the column halt- 
ed and opened ranks for the seniors 
to pass, then filed through in reverse 
column forming a semi-circle be- 
hind the class. 
The seniors entwined the garland 
they carried around the class tree and 
sang the class Then Miss Lillie 
Tucker, the president, stepped to the 
and delivered the address of 
welcome, which was as 
President Members of the 
faculty, fellow students, ladies and 
In behalf of the class of 1911, the 
first graduating class of our beloved 
institution, I extend to you a cordial 
welcome to our class exercises. 
We have gathered around our tree 
to hold our last class meeting as 
seniors for purpose of burying 
our records and inaugurating a 
tom which we trust will continue to 
exist long after we are gone; and 
also for the purpose of setting a 
precedent which, we hope will be 
followed by all future classes. 
In looking back over the past two 
years during which we have striven 
together, we see that many improve- 
might have been made, but 
whatever have been our fa Its, our 
hearts have been true. 
In making the record of our deeds 
a part of our school soil, we at the 
same time promise that the deeds 
themselves will form a part of, and 
help to nourish the institution which 
has so greatly befriended us. No one 
can ever know what it has meant for 
us to be here; to be with these up- 
lifting influences, to be one in 
pose and desire. 
Few people can realize what It 
means, has meant, or will mean to 
hundreds of girls to have such as 
this school open to them and with- 
in their reach. We would not let 
this opportunity pass to thank the 
noble hearted men who saw the need 
of such an institution and who help- 
ed to land It. Especially do we thank 
the county of Pitt and the town of 
Greenville for the great part they 
played in making our school just 
what it is. 
In giving expression of our 
we, at the same time, offer in 
return for all our school has done 
for us, our hearts, our hopes our lives 
in the great work of training the 
children under care into a higher 
life. 
We hope to see our alma mater 
prosperous and grow and we pledge 
ourselves to be ever loyal and true 
to its interests. 
To you, fellow students, we entrust 
the keeping of this spirit. May you 
always he united in the highest aims 
and purposes, and may you reach 
higher goals than we have attain- 
ed. 
Miss Highsmith followed with 
the class history, as 
History of Class of 
The history of our class is so close- 
connected with the history of the 
school that I shall ask you to review 
with me a few of the experiences we 
have Shared together, and then tell 
you some of our very own. 
When the news was spread abroad 
that the new C. T. T. S. would be 
ready for the reception of students 
October 1909, about responded 
to the call, anxious to take the train- 
to become teachers. They came 
from many parts of the state, and 
one from Virginia, although the ma- 
was from Eastern Carolina. 
Long will the memory of our 
rival here, and of the trials and joys 
of the first few days and weeks re- 
main with us The merry times 
had fixing up our new rooms, select- 
closet curtains, getting acquainted 
etc. We were all green together, so 
of course, the greatest harmony 
On October the first student body 
of the E. C. T. T. S. assembled in 
the auditorium for general directions 
from our president, with reference to 
registration and classification. After 
registering, or giving a history of 
ourselves in to the office, we went the 
rounds of the faculty to be classified. 
Not a few there who remembered 
about the texts they had 
studied, except the color of the book. 
But in a remarkably short time the 
teachers had sized up the situation 
and we were set off as A, B, and C 
classes, with work assigned. Real 
work it was, too, from the very first, 
for despite the fact that we had no 
desks except benches borrowed from 
the churches, no lights except small 
oil lamps, no maps, and no black- 
boards, the work went 
ahead like Mr. Frazier and his 
Among things discussed at our 
chapel exercises at that time was the 
absence of rules and regulations. 
Our president said we would begin 
with a clean sheet, and rules would 
come only as needed. Alas they 
did come, all too soon. In those days 
till December , we had no lights to 
give us the wink, and it was found 
that some girls did not know when 
to go to bed. They also did not know 
when to visit. So of course, as we 
were here to develop every side of 
our brains, we had to learn. Then, 
by sad experience, we learned that 
it was best not to leave the campus, 
not to be late to meals, and that 
study hour must be strictly kept if 
we were to do good work. 
Among the first organizations to be 
formed in our new school was a Y. 
W. C. A. One of our members, Pattie 
was elected president. Nearly 
all the girls in school became 
and so successfully was it man- 
aged that it has since been an in- 
factor in the school. 
Our first holiday came on November
