THE WOMANTS EXPOSITION.
A Pitt County Woman Makes the
Opening Address.
The WomanTs Exposition being held
in Charlotte was formally opened Tues-
day night. Mrs. R. R. Cotten, of this
county, a woman who at every appear-
ance before the public brings credit and
honor to her county, her State and
herself, was selected to make the open-
ing address.
We take from the Charlotte Observ-
er the foilowisg in reference vo the
openlug exercises:
) It was 9 oTclock when the programme
opened, Dr. J. B. Alexander mounted
the platform and introcuced the dis-
tinguished and gifted Mrs. Robert Cot-
ten, who had been chosen to make
the opening address. Dr. Alexander
said:
oLadies and Gentlemen: ~The task
wlich devolves upon me this evening
is one of the most pleasant oves I have
ever experieneed"that of opening
the WemanTs Expositiou"an exhibit
that except in point of magnitude com-
pares favorable with the WorldTs Fair,
{ congratulate you upon having your
fair upon the soii where the Meck-
leiburg Declaration was signed, and
during the celebration which commend,
it. ~Lhisis but an addendum to tie
celebration ot ~Lhursday night week.
~You ace here for the purpose of
hearing a woman, whe, though born in
Virginia, has identified herself with the
Old North State, and who teday is
known as an advocate of higher ed-
ucation, and of all that will edorn her
sex in North Carolina, She was one
of three women in the State sent to
represent North Carolina at the WorldTs
Fair. Her address in Washington, be.
tore the WomanTs Congress of MotherT 3)
was telegraphed over the world. She
is the length and!
breadth of this land as a representative
woman of North carolina.
known through
proud pleasure to introduce to you Mrs.
Robert Cotten.�
A roar ot applause greeted Mrs. Cot-
tenas she stepped upon the plattorm,
looking as she is, a cultured, refined
and elegant woman.
Mrs. Cgiten gracetully ecknowledged
Dr. AlexanderTs handsome tribete and
introduction, as follows:
oT am pleased and proud at all times
to be considvred a representative Nor.h
Carolina woman, but in wearing such
an honor I always feel like apologizing
to thove 1 represent for having been
born in Virginia. ~That
however, was remedied b; my coming
to North Caroiina in early childhood,
and so I hope it will not be remem-
bered against me.

By education, by
marriage, by love for State and solic-
itude for her wellare, I dare to claim
nativity on the principle that ¢ Ttis home
whereTer the heart is,T and under this
west I presume to enjoy the pleasure
and privilege of addressing you to-
night.�
The address proper followed. It was
{a handscme effort, a glowing tribute to
woman in her work, loye, home and
hopes und the Observer will do itself
I have the!
the pleasure acd honor of publishing it
in full later.
Mrs. Cotten was interrupted often.
with applause, and numbers pressed
forward to thank her for her noble
words and inspiring sentiments.

TOING JUST RIGHT.
The editor of the Warrenton
Record takes off his old straw hat,
which he has worn during all the
winter, aud makes his best bow
to a young fady in that commu-
nity for a beautifal joaf of bread:
which was baked by the fair one
herself and presented . to the
oworthy editor.
That is business. There is yet
hope for the profession. We
trust that we are about to euter
upon anew era, one that will be
fraught with untold and unnum-
bered blessings, a large portion
of them coming in the shape of
loaves of bread.
There 1s something substantial
about such gifts. They make
better men of us, and, for a time,
at least, the whole world seems
brighter. The Record man al-
~ yeady exhibits more snap and
ability. Every line in his paper
last week was stronger and there
was a much better makeup
noticeable.

of variovs things for nundreds of

oquently cause other prominent

short, we must ran a free show

will please release us as we think we
have suffered enough already, Pay-
ing five dollars for the cartridge after
