“OUR BABY.”
[When a little child dies’ people
some times say: “Oh well, it was only
a baby which is equivalent to saying
its loss does not amount to much and
that it will not be missed. Only those
who have lost one of these little ones
can appreciate the following beautiful
and tender lines, the author of which is
unknown to us—Gold Leaf :}
‘It was only a baby that died to-day !
Only a baby has passed away, :
Leaving its hearts and home for aye.
“Thus they whispered, but did they
know
Aught of the silent, killing woe
That surged through the mother’s
heart ?—ah, no !

Onlv a baby, whose small white hands

Will never be raised to her who stands

Bowed by her Master’s stern com-
mands,

Only a baby, whose little feet

Will never on earth make music sweet,

They have wandered away to a golden
street.

Only a baby, whose trusting head
Will henceforth rest on a narrow bed,
Far down in the home of the silent

dead.

Who hath sought a calm and beautiful

rest
Leaving its tender and cozy nest
For a place less warm than a mother’s

breast.
Only a baby, tiny and fair,
With the golden glint on its yellow
hair, .
Sleeping so calmly and peacefully there.
Only a baby, but she who hath pressed.
The wee cold form to her aching breast,
Knoweth the meaning of these words
best.

A harsh word to a child may destroy
an angel.

He who can laugh at himself, may
laugh much.

 

An oath on the lips shows that the
devil is in the heart.

God made some laws to show how
much He hates idleness.

Putting a crown on the head puts
nothing kindly in the heart.

Trouble does not come to weaken us,
but to show: us how weak we are.

Godis always near us, though we may
be far from him.

If you are praying for a revival, don’t
let somebody else do all the work.

It would spoil nine men out of ten
to let them have their own way fora
month.

As soon as we make God’s word a
lamp to our feet, we stop traveling in
the dark. 4

The first real step we take toward
heaven is the one we take when we say

| goodbye to sin.

The man who is more than filling the
place he has now, is on his way toa
better one. we

If some men’s _prayers were always

Still Progressing.

The commencement exercises of the
University and Wake Forest College
have both been held, the former this
week and the latter last week.
The success of botli was phenominal.
At Wade Forest three very distin-
guished gentlemen delivered the ad-
dresses and the commencement is sad
to have been the best in the history of
the college. The number of students
was larger than at any previous session
and the income more than paid the ex-
penses.. The trustees decided to make
some additions to the buildings, notably
an infirmary. |

At Chapel Hill they had Vice Pres-
ident Stevenson and the exercises fully
met the expectation of its, warmest
friends. The report ot the work for
the session has already been noticed in
these columns.

 

Races on the Fourth.

At their meeting Friday afternoon
the Greenville Driving Association per-
fected all arrangements fora series of
races here on July 4th.

There will be four horse races for
pursed of $100 each, and a bievele race
for a purse of $25. Of the horse races
one will be in the 3 minute class, one
in the 2:40 class, one free for all, and
one gentlemen’s driving race to buggy.

No steps have been taken yet by the
citizens in reference to co-operating with
the Driving Association and having a
general celebration on the 4th. It
could be done very easily, and the
crowd brought here on that day, which
comes this year on Saturday, would
materially help the bnsiness of the
town. There is not much time to be
lost if the celebration is to be had.

 

Lieut. Col, Hughes to Wed.

Mr. B. F. Sugg, First Lieutenant
of the Military Company here, has an
invitation to the marriage of Col. W,
T. Hughes, a wealthy leaf tobacco deal-
er of Louisburg, N. C., to Miss Clara
E. Davis, of Norfolk, Va., on the 17th
of June. ‘The officers who are invited
will meet Gov. Carr and staff, General
Cotten and staff, Col. Rodman and
staff at Weldon in a special car and
will leave Weldon at 2:50 o’clock, re-
turning leave Norfolk at 12 o’clock
that night. This is a grand affair and
will be much enjoyed by those who will
attend. .

 

Gov. Jarvis in Raleigh.

The Press-Visitor was glad to see
Hon. Thos. J. Jarvis in the city to-day
and to have a pleasant talk with him
concerning the situation in North Car-
olina. Gov. Jarvis has the true inter-
est of the State at heart, and if all
Democrats would take the view of the
present situation that he does, depreca-
ting discord and lack of confidence in
each other, and realizing the necessity
of unity and harmony and tolerance,
the party would ke in much better con-
dition. It is a fact, as Gov. Jarvie re-
marked to us to-day, that there is too
much bickering among’ Democrats and
too much disposition to suspect each
other of selling out when any plan of
combination or campaign is advanced |
from any Democratic source. Gov.
Jarvis stands for Democratic accord
and unanimity. Speaking of the possi-
bility of two State conyentions being
held, he says that wisdom would sug-
gest that the representatives of the par-
ty when they. meet here, consult togeth-
er and decide ‘what is best, and that

‘when they have decided let the decision

have the unanimous support of the en-
tire party.--Raleigh Pregs-Visitor.._,

a LETTER. |

[From our Regular Correspondent.)
Wasuinerox, D, U. June Sth, 96..
_ A bombshell has. been. exploded in
the camp of the jubilent McKinleyites
by the positive announcement that.
pee Reed will not under any cir-
mstances: play second fiddle in the’
‘McKinley orchestra. Mr., Reed is @
thoroughly disgusted
thought he had his party in. hands.
well as be has bad the Republican. ma-
jority of the House, and it hurts him to
_berknocked ont by the man, who. has
less ability than any of the: prominent
candidates. for the nomination ;
makes him mad- to see. men whe -
pledged: their” ‘Support to him,”
over each other to ‘announce their vie
giance ” McKinley, ‘bh tad
Cleveland was not.
uel when Congress passed the River
and Harbor bill over his veto, uor has
that changed his opinion of the merits
of the bill, and predictions are freely
made that.a very small per
-money appropriated by’ 1 e ‘= now a
law, will be paid out bythe eg
“yninistration. There are more ‘ways ‘to
kill a dog than hanging him.
The Butler bill probibiting the fur-
ther issve of bonds without the consent |,

the vote being 82 to 25, silver being

shelved by the House, which voted to
~ Jay it on the table, after 1t had been ad-
_ versely reported fromthe Ways and
~ Means committee.

- weeks ago are now a3. mum as Quakers
on the subject. The reason is that
somehow or other the republicans huve

| become convinced that President Cleve-

land is getting ready to beat Congres at
its own sae; by an ‘early: recognition
of the o iti dence of Cuba.
= | Whether the Pesident has any such in-

tention isa matter about which those
'| who could speak by authority will not
|talk. It is probable that the republi-
| can scare grew out of President Cleve-
land saying to Senator Sherman and
two other members of the Committee
jon Foreign R lations, who called at the
White House to discuss Caban affairs,
that he thought recognition of the inde-
pendence of Cuba was preferable to
recognizing the Cubans as_belligerents.

It is now openly conceded even by
such sturéy opponents of silver as
Secretaries Smith and Morton that a
large majority of the delegates to the.
Chicago convention will be silver men,
| but there is much less talk of a bolt by
the opponents of silver than there was
when the control of the convertion was
jn douvt. Infact, a’ number of the
strongest advocates of the gold stand.
ard in Congress have voluntarily stated
to silver Democrats their intention to
support loyally the tieket and | platform
ot the Chicago convention, So far the
Democrats in Congress are doing very
little talking about any particular can-
didate for President, and. while: most of
them have personal préferenca there
is nothing like a .oncentration of senti-
| ment upon any one maa.

The Two-Thirds Rule.

It is already ‘becoming a question

“Yes, I admit it all, all, all!’ cried
the proprietor, in despair. “Heavens,
