HERE IS REAL ELouUrNCe.
A Genius Of Radiant BriIliancy Takes His
Pen In Hand.


A master Of language, wielder Of
words, has suddenly appeared in the
south. To be definite, he has appeared
at Wilson, N. G. Here is a specimen Of
his work, recently clipped from the
columns Of paper published in that
town, henceforth memorable:
That magnificent conyersationalist
the superbly endowed and brilliant
minded Miss Lizzie Crowell, whose
powers of entertainment are so potent
in their regal sway, gave a recherche
and most elegant Eat home" on Tues
day afternoon to her charming and
highly cultured relatives, the exquisitely
refined Misses Marsh of New Jersey 1t
was an occasion of unusual brilliancy,
for amid the sparkling CLEANS Of the
most brilliant streams of conversation
the moments were made to ripple by as
sweetly and as unsteady and as beauti-
fully and as radiantly as a streamlet Of
crystal waters flowing through banks Of
blooming flowers and kissed alone by
trembling sunbeams as they come down
in dazzling showers. 1t was indeed an
occasion that will be most pleasantly
remembered, for under the Intoxicating
influences born in the witcheries of
those lovely maidens who made up such
q tiara Of attractiveness all wero made
to dream of lost Eden restored in all
Of its pristine beauty and attractive
ness, where flowers breathe the sweet
est perfume of delight and song birds
sing their purest carolings Of rapture
and enchantment.
For chaste magniicence and happy
epithet the lines that follow are even
more remarkable 1t is needless to state
that they are by the same hand:
Our worthy and most excellent and
deservedly popular young townsman,
]. D. Gold, and his lovely and most es-
Unable young bride, nee Miss Inez
White, reached Wilson on Tuesday aft
ernoon and were driven to the elegant
home Of Elder p. d. Gold, where a most
cordial welcome awaited them. At night
the doors We're thrown open, and that
charming home became the radiant
scene Of one of the most brilliant recep-
tions ever held in Wilson. Under the
artistic touch of most skillful fingers
the handsome parlor was made to re-
semble a poetic dream Of richest fancy,
for it was most beautifully and artistic
ally decorated, while ribbons Of white
and gold most beautifully intertwined,
so typical of the interviewer heartstrings
that were then holding two happy souls
in such sweet union, made up tout
ensemble that evoked enthusiastic de-
light And amid this radiant and spar
king scene moved to and fro like sym
phonies Of grace and poems Of rayish-
ing loneliness some Of the loveliest and
most glorious women that ever gave a
charm to earth and a melody TO the cur
rent Of existence Most radiantly con-
spicuous among these was that resplen-
dent specimen of magnificent woman
hood, that fawless jewel Of richest bril-
liancy, the sparkling Miss Mamie Lee
Of Suffolk, Va, who was maid Of honor
at the recent nuptials, and who indeed
reigned a majestic queen in the royal
robings Of her conquering loneliness.
And there was another attractive visitor
in the handsome person Of the radiant
and sparkling Miss Jacksie Daniel Of
Tarboro, whose animated powe-5 gave
additional brilliancy to the scene and
impaired increased enjoyment to the
delightful occasion.
And thus ends our imperfect &C
count, says the young man in Wilson.
he is too modest. His account" is
about the most perfect thing Of its kind
that journalism" ever produced
New York Times.
