Niagara Falls N. Y, April 22.-Upon
crossing the bridge to Niagara Falls,
Ont, Senior Polo V Bernabe and his
staff. accompanied by two United
States secret service men and a de
tective, proceeded at once to the Lafay
cite hotel, where il is their intention to
remain until Saturday afternoon They

in the Dominion, the minister and his
party were placed under the protection
Of Thos- H Young, chief of the Ontario
police. and two detectives. The min
ister at once sent numerous dispatches
to New York Washington. Paris and
Havana, and did $500 worth of cabling
to the foreign office at Madrid He re-
ceived messages from Madrid, New
York and Montreal. The Spanish min
lister made an exception to his policy of
silence when a reporter showed him a
dispatch asking him to affirm or deny
the report that, just before leaving
Washington. he made the statement:
IF Gen Grant had been president this
war would have been impossible
No, sir said Senior Polo. 7 did not
make the statement, but those are my
sentiments, nevertheless. The United
States has no justification for forcing a
war upon Spain It is a shameful pro-

START THE WORK.
The Auditorium is LanguiShing
and There Should Be An
Awakening.

The auditorium question is practically
at a standstiu again Nothing has been
done for two weeks. BY an oversight
the advertisement for bids on the build
ing was not made at the last council
meeting. Don't go to sleep
Mayor Fellows says that when he is
sued the call nothing was said to him
about including the advertisement for
bids for the auditorium and the matter
was omitted It was therefore not
considered, though City Engineer
Barnes was ready with mis- estimate
which must be submitted before the
advertisement for bids is made
One thing of vital Importance has
been discovered by City Engineer
Barnes in making his estimate and this
is that the proposed building will cost
more than at first supposed It has
been supposed that the cost would be
about $4,000 but MI Barnes figures
which will be submitted 10 the council
Will show that the building Will cost
over $50, 900 and while he refuses to say
what his figures are until they have
been formally presented to the coun-
ell il is believed that the estimate Of
the cost is not far from SIS. 600.
This statement emphasizes the i'm
portance of starting the midsummer
fair agitation at once. It would be
serious mistake to hold the fair later
than June and to do that it will be
necessary to begin the preparations at
once.

], K, L, NJ and Nc gave a delightful
entertainment Wednesday evening at
the home of Judge and Mrs. W. A
Johnston A number of amusements
had been planned so the time passed
very quickly Names of important
characters in history and fiction were
written on slips of paper and pinned on
the guests backs and they guessed
what character they represented by the
questions asked them. Next came the
hat trimming contest by the gentle
men: they trimmed the hats and the
young ladies wore them and it would
be difficult to tell which called for the
most forbearance.
A delightful little programme was
given. Mr.. Paul Torrington sang;
Miss Anna NJ. Parry Bundy played;
Mrs. Henry recited; Mrs. L H. Strick-
Ter and Mrs Eli G. Foster sang a Duet
and the little ConnOrs' children pleased
the guests with several songs

The attendance was very large and
this was without doubt one of the most

Marriage of Rev. b. G. Alfred, of the
n. G. Conference, to Miss Dora kim
ball.

June 14.-tSpecial.) 1.-The social event OF
the season was the celebration of the
marriage nuptials of Miss Dora Kim
ball. of this place. to Rev. Il. G. Alfred
of Kittrell. The marriage took place at
the home of the brides father and was
the prettiest ever witnessed in this CONF
munity. The parlor was beautifully
lighted and at exactly 10 o'clock Il. m,
the marriage party, followed by the
bride and groom, entered the parlor as
follows: Mr.. w. III. Bacon, of lamp
ton, with Miss Allie Gooch, of Stem;
Mr.. Tom Harris with Miss Lena Ham
NELL; Mr.. Milton Bragg with Miss Cora
Smith; Mr.. Lennie Smith with Miss

The ceremony was performed by Rev
E. A. Yates, ID. d., Presiding Elder of

crowd of friends and relatives. As the

beautiful strains of Mendelssohn's march
pealed forth from the piano, rendered
by Mrs. M. i. Wrenn, sister Of the
bride. The bride was attired in a beau
tiful costume of gray, while the groom
wore the conventional black. The bride
is one of Granville county's most popu-

Senator Tillman has a way of going to
the bottom of matters. After "A number
of Senators had spoken of the scandal
of paying Maj. Stahlman 100000 for
collecting the claim of $2SS,0OO due by
the government to the M. Il. Church,
South, Senator Tillman declared that
1.-THE Methodist church ought to make
Stahlman disgorge."
That's exactly what ought TO be done.
If Mai. Stahlman induced repre-
sentatives of the church to make
so scandalous a contract, he took
advantage of their confidence in him.
Senator Tillman is right. Stahlman
ought to be made to disgorge. For
months he has been posing as a great
friend of the church. Every dollar, cX-
cept a reasonable fee, is dishonest
money.
When the bill was pending in the Sen
ate, it was reported that some lobbyist
was to get n big slice, and this report
was about to defeat the passage of the
bill. Senator Bate telegraphed to Smith
& Barbee, agents of the Methodist Pub
fishing House, Mt Nashville, Tenn, and
they wired back authorizing the Sena-
tor to denounce the report as false. He
did so. The bin passed. The money
was paid, but the church only got $1SS,-
900, while Stahlman got 100000 There
is fraud somewhere and the Senate does
well, to investigate the matter. If any
agent of the church is guilty, the church
authorities will unfrock him. The Bish-
ops ought to look into the matter ut
once and clear the church from the
blame that ought 10 be placed on the
responsible parties. The money paid
was due for property destroyed. There
was nothing wrong in urging payment
and employing an honorable lawyer, but
after the telegram to Senator Bate, an
explanation should be made, the respon-
sibility placed, and Stahlmdn made to
disgorge The Methodist church ought
TO have every dollar of that money, ex-
cept a fair fee. If Stahlman had to
spend a big pile to secure the passage OF
the bill, the whole thing is unclean and
the church ought to wash its hands
of it.
