Pretty marriage III hAllIaX.
At the hospitable home of Mr.. and
Mrs. F. w. Gregory, in Crowells, Halifax
county, there was a brilliant gathering
of their intimate friends and relatives
last Thursday, October 10th, the occa-

Then came the groom with Mr.. Hugh

a. best man, followed by the bride
leaning on the arm of her father, by
whom she was given away.

riage ritual of the Episcopal church; Miss

ing Mendelssohn's grand march in a
highly skillful and artistic manner.
An elegant but informal reception
was given the night before, and it Is

of ladies and gentlemen representing
many sections of North Carolina and
several of the Southern States, enjoyed
the event to the fullest extent. 1t could

What TWO Well known North
Carolina Editors Say 0. keV.
Thomas DixOn's Lecture.

When Rev. Thomas Dixon visited
the State last June to deliver he annu-
al address at Wake Forest College, by
special request he lectured in number
Of places before his return to New York.
Following is what the Charlotte Chro"-
icle and Wilmington Messenger say OF
his lecture on Backbone
THE lecture was grand; it was
eloquent, harmonious, powerful. 1t
was magnificent display of BACKBONE
and an eloquent appeal for more OF 1t.
The audience showed their apprecla-
ton by frequent applause. Intense in
terest was displayed on every counter
ance. The speaker led his audience as
if BY magic from the humorous to the
sublime. Charlotte Chronicle, June Il.
s'There was no portion of his lecture
dry, but throughout there was happy
versatility varying from grave to gay,
with ever and anon downright sallles
of humor that was wrought with a
mastery hand and convulsed the audi
ence with laughter. The lecture itself,
and the manner of its delivery stamp
him as a genius. His descriptive
powers are excellent, and at times his
word-painting so vivid that the pictures
seem really in view.
cit would be impossible to allude to
all that was admirable in Mr.. Dixon
lecture and without further attempting
task so vain, we will add that when
the eloquent lectureer concluded the
audience sat applauding for severa
minutes, as if reluctant to 60 away
without hearing still more about ''Back
bone. ''-Wilmington Messenger, june
IA, 80.

victorla's Costly Mistake.

Some years ago her majesty bought from
a well known London jeweler three very
valuable pearls, the united cost Of which was
not far short of $500. A little while after
the purchase had been made, the merchant
was surprised to receive letter from lady
at court, which read: "The queen wishes
very much TO know whether pearls will
burn.n The reply to this somewhat tartly
scientific inquiry was an assurance that IL
her majesty wished to oxygeniza pearls for
her amusement she would find that they
would burn in an ordinary fire. The rejoinder
brought the secret to light. The queen had
placed the pearls on her writing desk, wrap
ped in piece of tissue paper As she was
writing one morning, she used the tissue pa
per to wipe her pen, and then threw it into
the fire. The pearls, all unobseryed, went
with it. The ashes of the CRATE were searched
for them in vain. They had been destroyed
so utterly as to leave no trace. The queen
with her own hand had cast three splendid
jewels, worth more than the average income
of her middle class subjects, into the blaze
