A Brilliant Marriage and Reception

One of the most notable and brilliant
social events that have taken place here
in long time was the marriage OF DIR.
John r. Greer and Miss Mary Hart Frever
on the evening of the 10Th inst. The wed

OF the brides father on Cherokee street.
The house was artistically decorated with
flowers and evergreens and under the soft
mellow lights looked like fairy land Sel>
dom has larger and more representative
body of friends assembled to witness so
happy an event as that which filled the
rooms and halls waiting with expectancy
for the wedding march and the appearance
OF the contracting parties. At last the
hum OF merry conversation was hushed by
the wedding march, played as Wurm's
Orchestra alone knows how to render it.
The groom accompanied by his best man.

CANT home in the city to the bride and
groom. They were completely taken by

The Bees Working Tools.

Naturalists say that the feet Of the
common working bee exhibits the curl
IL combination of a basket. a brush
and Il pair Of p~inchers. The brush, the
hairs OF which are arranged in sym
metrical rows. are only to be seen with
Il high-grade microscope. With this
tool the bee brushes its velvet robe in
order to remove the pollen dust with
which it has become loaded while the
bee was engaged in extracting nectar.
Another delicate apparatus is the spoon
shaped appendage which receives the
g~leanings that the bee wishes 10 carry
home to the hive. Finally, by opening
the basket and the brush by means Of d
neat little hinge the two become
a pair OF pinchers which render etfectu-
al service in the construction of cells
for the reception of honcy.-rhiladcl-

Things in Smoke take a new turn once

were in a house owned by Mr.. G. {.
Farthing, and on the lst Of May he
quietly fired them out-having signed a
petition not TO knowingly allow any Of

erty. Mr. Farthing says that he signed
in good faith. lie also says that Rufus
Massey also signed a similar petition.
itut it seems now that as soon a. Earth
ing ousted the negroes, Massey comes
jumping up and rents his house to them.
This is not playing fair, and Mr.. Mas
~cy's excuse that Marion BarbCc and
some others rent their houses to the Nan
Whites, etc, is not a good reason. All
the property owners should listen TO the
appeal OF the mothers and sisters Of Dur

done, and at a sacrifice that would
amount to a few dollars-and God knows
that a mans conscience, if be has any,

To TIE EDIToR-I have just received
a copy of your paper containing the let
ter written by me to Capt. T. B. Lyon, of
your place. The letter was. as stated,
written very hurriedly, and hence the
neglect to sign it. I have quite as great
an adherence to anonymous commune.
cations as you can possibly have, and
never hesitate to sign my name to any
statement that | will make.
My reason for writing to Captain Lyon
instead Of to yourself was, that | was per-
s~onally acquainted with him and thought
that as he knew me and also had some
personal knowledge of the facts in the
case (having recently visited our town,
it would perhaps be better to write to
him and get him to request you to deny
the statement made in your issue of the
10Th.
My reason for thinking that the publ.
cation was a telegram was that it was
dated May j., was printed in issue of the
18th, and as our mail for Durham does
not leave here until 4:56 p. m, I did not
see how a letter written here on the
18th could appear in a paper Of the same
date. In regard to the small pOx, | in

tainly mistaken as to there being any
small, pox at Lunenburg Court House.
The only place that it has made its ap-
pearance is zeal Wattsboro, Luncnburg
county, and the deaths and disease have
been confined entirely TO negroes. | will
repeat that the report that any one who
had been exposed to the disease has been
in Chase City is wholly without founda-
ton, and we are as free from any indica-
ton of smallpox as any town or city in
Virginia, and we do not apprehend the
least danger from its existence so far
from us. Of course our people are TAX
ing every precaution and we will, | am
quite confident, suffer no Inconvenience
whatever on account Of the disease being
in Lunenburg county. Our people ap-
p~reciate very highly your courtesy in
publishing the denial, and in their name
| thank you for the same most heartily.
Regretting that i have had to trouble
you so much and again thanking you for
your Kindness, | am very truly yours,

The attention of all Americans Is

The political possibilities which now
exist of those fair daughters OF the
tropics, Oahu, Kauai and Molokai, be-
coming either the sisters or the wards

and the curiosity of everyone and every
bit of information regarding these Isles
Of the Pacific is eagerly read.
Among the many interesting things

tomb. As the visit to be described oc-
Cured a certain number Of years ago.
it is possible hat things may not be
now as they were then, but it is not
probable hat anyone has violated h
sanctitv of the grave. >
The royal tomb is situated immedi-
ately contiguous to the palace grounds.
It is composed of a single chamber OF
fair size and height. It's walls are OF
massive coral, and a high and heavy
wall Of the same material surrounds
the vault. S4OSc dIOIlINl lIt 1o- II III
closure is a grove of shade trees, and
among them the gentle breezes that
cOmc in from the ocean seem to hymn
forth Il requiem for the departed
mOnarchs. The entrance to this abode
of defunct royalty is guarded by a
keeper, who bears as Il sign of his au-
thOrity the pOnderous key of the sacred
repository. The bolt obeys his efforts
and the heavy door swings back on its
rusty hinges. A collection of en-
bIazOned collins at n meets your
gaze. They are covered with purple
satin and gold velvet of the same hue,
and rest one above the other on frames
of kOa-the wood of the acacia. The
grave Of Kamchameha, the conqueror,
remains a profound secret unto this
day. The dead. whose collins in
scrupulOus order before us are
those royal personages who have de-
parted this life since 1925. 1t was
then that the method employed by mod
ern nations was adopted in the Sand
wich islands. Everything about the
tomb suggests a p.ofound regard for
the inviolate sanctity of their individual
rcpOse.
Standing among their lifeless dust it
was difficult to avoid feeling an mex
pressible sadness, mingled with a sense
of awe. There they lay. a few dusky
mOnarchs, and some of their descend
ants. They had swayed the scepter of
absolute despotism. Some of them had
seen human blood flow from the man
gled and quivering limbs of victims laid
on the affairs Of their old gods. At that
moment and amid such hellish orgies
they little thought Of or cared for the
spot that was to mark their earthly
oblivion. Some of them had gone on
the long journey in the blacklist gloom
OF paganisn; other, under the light of
Il divine revelation and tn" influence of
Christianity.
The first royal dead Inferred in this
tomb were LiholihO. or Kamehameha
