Mrs. H. H. Tate. who still retains two business rooms in the south end of the original Hamilton Vernon Stewart: Born Decem-ber 14, 1879—Died August 14, 1904. Hamilton Vernon Stewart, the bright and promising sou of Mr. aud Mrs. J. M. Stewart, who scarcely a year ago embarked iu a uoble profession aud for whom the future held exceptional prospects, died at the home of his parents ou East Gastou street last Sun-day afternoon at 3 o'clock after au ill-ness that covered a period of about six weeks. Mr. Stewart came home from I Atlanta the 23rd of last month sutler- i ing from catarrhal fever, which had attacked him in a mild form three weeks previous, and seemed to im-prove here under the loving attention ' of his family, but ou Saturday last he had a sinking spell that caused special ' alarm. He rallied, however, that even-log aud appeared to be doing nicely : until the following day, when he had another sinking spell from which he never recovered. Widely known and highly esteemed, the death of this ex-cellent young man caused much sor- 1 row. By exceptional industry he had employed his talents to the best advan-tage and was fast making a reputation in his profession. His friends ami acquaintances here had watched bis course from the graded schools up with no little pride and pleasure. Following his completion of the literary course at Whitsett Institute in 1900 he entered the State University at Chapel Hill, completing the law course there in three years. A year ago he obtained license to practice law, locating in Gas-tonia. In February of this year he re-ceived a llattering oiler from the old law linn of Brown & Brown at Atlanta, (ja., which he accepted, and has since been located there. He stood high in the esteem of his new Atlanta friends and was getting along exceptionally well there when his health failed. Re-luctant to give up his work he perhaps waited loo long before coming home to rest and recuperate, and it is possible he sacrificed his life to his ambition. His bereaved parents aud sister have j the sympathy of everyone iu their sore | ai licliou. Funeral services were held at the family residence Monday after-noon at •) o'clock, conducted by Rev, Ira Krwin, pastor of Centenary church, where the family holds membership. Rev. Dr. Turrentine and Rev. Dr. Crawford assisted in the services, after which interment was made in (ireene Hill cemetery. The pall bearer* were Messrs. Thos. S. Head, Charles Van-story, A. W. Cooke, C. W. Sapp, Michael Schenck. Karl Harllee, Harry Donned and Ernest Clapp. A profu-sion of beautiful floral emblems covered the newly made grave. Yesterday's Primaries. At the time of going to press this morning the returns from the prima-ries indicate that practically all the old ticket was renomiiiated, with the possible exception of Treasurer McKiu-ney. "Uncle Abe" received the biggest majority of any candidate. Jordan has a safe majority. Scales for the senate ■ received a unanimous vote in most j every precinct where a vote was taken ou the legislative ticket. For the lower house Robinson, Gordon, Kennett and Fox have the strongest support, but it is not yet known who leads. Coroner Turner and Surveyor Gilchrist had no opposition. Nearly if not all the old board of commissioners is renomiiiated, but the returns indicate that Al Kankiu aud John A. Young got a heavy vote. Mr. Tucker got the best vote in the bunch. There is yet enough to be done to assure an interesting county conven-tion Saturday.

Mrs. McMichel had appar-ently withstood the ravages of an at-tack of fever successfully when she suffered a relapse, which caused her death in a few days. She was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. H.

W. A. CURTIS, Franklin, Aug. 15, Company A, MARKET REPORT. The receipts ou our market for the past week have not been very large, yet there was a nice little sale almost every day, composed mostly of new primings. The prices ou these tobaccos are running very nicely and are very satisfactory to farmers. They are bring-ing from $2.40 to $8.00 per hundred pounds, aud our buyers seem to be very anxious for these tobaccos. We thiuk the prices will pay farmers very handsomely to save them, and we hope you will save as many of them as you cau aud let us have them in Greensboro, as we are very anxious for primings on this market. Old tobacco is selling about as it has been for several weeks aud there is a little showing up on the market most' every day, but a great deal of it is more or less damaged and goes oil at damaged prices. All sound old tobacco is m active demand aud bringing good prices. Sam Johnson, a good Guilford county farmer, was here with two loads of | primings during the past week and was highly pleased with pries on both of them. Mr. Johnson realizes the good , of saving all the primings he can. D. C. Thomas, of Rockinghom, was here with primings during the past week and got just twice as much for his load as he was expecting, it is useless to say that Mr. Thomas went back home pleased, and will save all the primings he can from now on. Iu saving primings be sure to cure them out thoroughly and get them iu good keeping order, shaking oil the dirt and pulling oil the strings. Keep them straight; we do not care whether j they are picked and tied up or not. I You can use your pleasure about this, as we do not thiuk it amounts to very . much either way.

Mrs. H. H. Tate. who still retains two business rooms in the south end of the original Hamilton Vernon Stewart: Born Decem-ber 14, 1879—Died August 14, 1904. Hamilton Vernon Stewart, the bright and promising sou of Mr. aud Mrs. J. M. Stewart, who scarcely a year ago embarked iu a uoble profession aud for whom the future held exceptional prospects, died at the home of his parents ou East Gastou street last Sun-day afternoon at 3 o'clock after au ill-ness that covered a period of about six weeks. Mr. Stewart came home from I Atlanta the 23rd of last month sutler- i ing from catarrhal fever, which had attacked him in a mild form three weeks previous, and seemed to im-prove here under the loving attention ' of his family, but ou Saturday last he had a sinking spell that caused special ' alarm. He rallied, however, that even-log aud appeared to be doing nicely : until the following day, when he had another sinking spell from which he never recovered. Widely known and highly esteemed, the death of this ex-cellent young man caused much sor- 1 row. By exceptional industry he had employed his talents to the best advan-tage and was fast making a reputation in his profession. His friends ami acquaintances here had watched bis course from the graded schools up with no little pride and pleasure. Following his completion of the literary course at Whitsett Institute in 1900 he entered the State University at Chapel Hill, completing the law course there in three years. A year ago he obtained license to practice law, locating in Gas-tonia. In February of this year he re-ceived a llattering oiler from the old law linn of Brown & Brown at Atlanta, (ja., which he accepted, and has since been located there. He stood high in the esteem of his new Atlanta friends and was getting along exceptionally well there when his health failed. Re-luctant to give up his work he perhaps waited loo long before coming home to rest and recuperate, and it is possible he sacrificed his life to his ambition. His bereaved parents aud sister have j the sympathy of everyone iu their sore | ai licliou. Funeral services were held at the family residence Monday after-noon at •) o'clock, conducted by Rev, Ira Krwin, pastor of Centenary church, where the family holds membership. Rev. Dr. Turrentine and Rev. Dr. Crawford assisted in the services, after which interment was made in (ireene Hill cemetery. The pall bearer* were Messrs. Thos. S. Head, Charles Van-story, A. W. Cooke, C. W. Sapp, Michael Schenck. Karl Harllee, Harry Donned and Ernest Clapp. A profu-sion of beautiful floral emblems covered the newly made grave. Yesterday's Primaries. At the time of going to press this morning the returns from the prima-ries indicate that practically all the old ticket was renomiiiated, with the possible exception of Treasurer McKiu-ney. "Uncle Abe" received the biggest majority of any candidate. Jordan has a safe majority. Scales for the senate ■ received a unanimous vote in most j every precinct where a vote was taken ou the legislative ticket. For the lower house Robinson, Gordon, Kennett and Fox have the strongest support, but it is not yet known who leads. Coroner Turner and Surveyor Gilchrist had no opposition. Nearly if not all the old board of commissioners is renomiiiated, but the returns indicate that Al Kankiu aud John A. Young got a heavy vote. Mr. Tucker got the best vote in the bunch. There is yet enough to be done to assure an interesting county conven-tion Saturday.

W. A. CURTIS, Franklin, Aug. 15, Company A, MARKET REPORT. The receipts ou our market for the past week have not been very large, yet there was a nice little sale almost every day, composed mostly of new primings. The prices ou these tobaccos are running very nicely and are very satisfactory to farmers. They are bring-ing from $2.40 to $8.00 per hundred pounds, aud our buyers seem to be very anxious for these tobaccos. We thiuk the prices will pay farmers very handsomely to save them, and we hope you will save as many of them as you cau aud let us have them in Greensboro, as we are very anxious for primings on this market. Old tobacco is selling about as it has been for several weeks aud there is a little showing up on the market most' every day, but a great deal of it is more or less damaged and goes oil at damaged prices. All sound old tobacco is m active demand aud bringing good prices. Sam Johnson, a good Guilford county farmer, was here with two loads of | primings during the past week and was highly pleased with pries on both of them. Mr. Johnson realizes the good , of saving all the primings he can. D. C. Thomas, of Rockinghom, was here with primings during the past week and got just twice as much for his load as he was expecting, it is useless to say that Mr. Thomas went back home pleased, and will save all the primings he can from now on. Iu saving primings be sure to cure them out thoroughly and get them iu good keeping order, shaking oil the dirt and pulling oil the strings. Keep them straight; we do not care whether j they are picked and tied up or not. I You can use your pleasure about this, as we do not thiuk it amounts to very . much either way.
