PEACE INSTITUTE LAST NIGHT
A Brilliant Entertainment by the Erosto-
s.9 .,<... phian Society,

~ a. Pii"h Nv go -.,....., 81.
One Of the most brilliant entertain
nlen,s ever given at Peace Institute was
enjoyed last night by a select few, among
whom were Mrs. Russell and Mr.. Alex
ander honorary members of the Society,
and Mrs. Sawyer.
The stage was tastefully decorated
with eyergreens and palms, a fit bower
for Titania's court. Japanese lanterns
of every shape and color, were hung
about in every conceivable place. some
arranged in most fantastic figures The
first thing on the programme was THE
Comedy of the Queens" The beautiful
costuming. together with the wonderful
dramatic ability so well displayed by the
talented young ladies represented, won
a most hearty applause and many tlatter-
ing remarks from the Culture Club"
as well as the guests 1t was a glimpse
in Titania's court. Her throne was a
perfect wilderness of roses, and she was
gracefully represented by Miss Matte
Lee McIver The other characters
were:
Eve. -. -. -. Miss B. NJ Mclean
Isabella of CASTLE . . Miss n Whitehead
Pocahontas go. .... Miss L. Pearson
Elizabeth ..... E. Miss b. Kornegay
Mary. Queen of Scots Miss T.. Butler
Christine of Sweden Miss G.. Carroll

Josephine twife of Napoleon)
Miss IL. Etheredge
Cleopatra ...... Miss NJ. Ireland
Queen of Sheba . Miss T.. Johns
Victoria :. ....... Miss +. Owen
The next was a recitation and encore
from Miss Caspari, one Of the most tai
ented teachers ever at Peace Institute.
Then came the May-pole dance. which
with the rest of the programme. was ar
ranged for the lawn, but owing to the
weather, was danced indoors. The pole
looked lovely with the purple and gold
ribbons falling in graceful folds around
it. The girls were dressed in white, with
sashes of purple or gold. the Erosophian
colors, causing beautiful effect.
While refreshments were being served,
there was always a crowd around the
tent in which the fortunes were told, and
peals Of laughter testified TO every one
enjoyment of the wit and humor of the
gypsy who sat within.
But all good things must have an end.
so at last with much regret, the guests
were forced to depart. This they did
filled with admiration of the Erosophian
Society, and with sorrow at the thought
that there were so few who were able
to be at Peace on that memorable night
when Purple and Gold" held sway.

ciety: Miss Eva Johns, president; Miss

AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT..
Review of the Work Accomplished in 1t
Twenty Years of Existence.

review of the Work Accomplished III Its
Twenty Years of Existence.
The Bulletin of the Agricultural De
partment for April, just issued, contains
what may be termed the valedictory of
the outgoing officers, who will on June
LIST, be succeeded by the newly elected
officials.
After mentioning the fact that the De-
partment of Agricultural was just twenty
years old when it changed hands, from
one Board to the other, and from one
political party A-another. the Bulletin
goes on to say:
1T is not improper at this time to
glance back upon the work of the for
mer Board and bring to view few of
its leading achievements. Twenty years
ago the Board of Agriculture began its
work from the ground, and has been
building continually since that time.
With no data to start with, it bravely
started the work it was charged with ac
complishing The first experimental
years were laborious and vigilant, but al
ways progressive. Then the real work of
permanence and value began to command
attention and the results to come to the
State. 1t established one among the first
fish hatcheries in the United States, and
the results of that work are still mani
fest in the waters of the State; it sur
veyed the deposits of pyrites in search
of suitable material for conversion into
sulphuric acid: it explored the phos
phate beds of the coastal formations; it
promoted the search for merchanta BILE
coal in the deposits of this State; it made
han Of % n
tural resources in great expositions at
Vienna, Atlanta, Boston, New Orleans
and Chicago; it surveyed the oyster beds;
it has aided the development of the sand
hill region; it has built and equipped the
finest museum in the South; it has per-
sistently advertised North Carolina, es-
pecially through hand-b books, until it is
to-day the best known, and is regarded
as the most progressive, up-to-date State
in the South. Besides these things, it has
carefully and consistently taught better
methods in the cultivation Of all crops
and promoted the introduction of new
varieties of plants and fruits, and i'm
proved breeds of horses, cattle, sheep,
swine and poultry; it has shown the way
to the renovation OF WORKOUT soils and
adopted every means in its power for
the upDulluInS or the pest interests or the
farmer, trucker, miner, lumberman and
fisherman. Its record is before the peo-
pie; the results of its faithful discharge
of the manifold duties enforced by law
will be felt for years to come Some
tribute is due the retiring Board for the
great work accomplished under its aus
pces, but space is too limited here to
go more fully into the subject, except
to say that credit should be given where
credit is due. The retiring Board pre-
sents to its successors in office the best
equipped and most effective department
of the kind in the South. 1t behooves the
incoming administra ton to keep up the
pace, to see to it that it holds the su-
premacy over similar institutions in the
South, and that the onward march Of
progress is quickened
