Reception TO Rev. and Mrs. w. C.
SchaeGer.
Rev. and Mrs. William c. Schaeffer cele-
brated the twentieth anniversary of their
wedding by an informal reception in the
Sunday school room of the Lutheran
Church of the Ascension last night
The room had been prettily decorated for
the occasion with the national colors.
Potted ferns filled up the platform, over
which was the inscription "1s7S-Welcome
1885," In a rear room refreshments were
served.
Several hundred of the members of the
congregation and other friends of Rev. and
Mrs. Schaeffer called to extend their con-
CALCULATIONS. Mr.. Schaeffer made some
brief remarks, taking as his text: Happy
Though Married" He briefly sketched the
happiness of true marriage, advised young
men to marry early, selecting good sensi-
BILE girls, and when married, to consult
with and take the advice of their wives.
Many a man owes his success in life to a
good wife, said he, and many man who
has gone wrong would have been saved il
he had had a good wife
In sending out the invitatio DIR. and
Mrs. Schaeffer requested that instead of
presents of chinaware, a small donation
of two dimes be given toward the build

sonage. Despite this there We're several
very pretty china remembrances, and in
stead of dimes some contributions ran up
into the dollars. 1t is probable that the do
nations for the piazza will amount TO
considerable sum.
DIR. and Mrs Schaeffer were married at
Staunton, Va. Mrs. Schaeffer was a Miss
Hahn. Some of the happiest years of their
married life have been passed in Savau-

Some sweet day, some sweet day,
We shall go to meet our loved one
Some sweet day. some sweet day.
Sweetest memories of our dear one
Fill each loving grateful heart,
And the tears of deepest sorrow
Swiftly from our eyelids start
We shall miss her kindly presence
That so cheercd us OH our way,
But we know she still is near us,
Every day, every day,
Her sweet spirit still is near us
Every day, every day.

In the Heavenly Home above;
" here our souls shall dwell forever
In the courts of light and love;

Where Wen enter some sweet day,
Where We'll meet our blessed Saviour

IT WILL BE A MISTAKE.
Gen. Burt Should Not be Mustered Out
of the Volunteer Service.

The press dispatches announce the
probability of the muster out of Briga-
dier General A. S. Burt, commanding
the First Brigade, Second Division,
Seventh Army Corps.
This announcement has been read
with sincere regret in many homes III
North Carolina-homes that are rep
resented by soldiers in the First regi-
ment, now at Jacksonville.
That regiment is under General Burt
and it is proud of the fact. The men re-
spect him as an officer and love him as
a man, for he is the friend of every one
of them.
He has watched over and cared for
his men like a father. He has drilled
and schooled them in the arts of war
until they are the pride of Gen. Lees
army and the equal of any volunteer
soldiers in the service. The Tar Heels
in camp Mt Jacksonville would follow
Andy Burt. as he delights to call
himself. anywhere. And Gen. Burt in
turn would go sleepless and hungry that
they might have rest and food.
General Burt is n self-made man. He
is one of the few men in the regular
army that has worked up from the
ranks. with nothing but tireless indus
try. genuine worth, rare good humor and
military genius to recommend him.
There has never been any strong ppliti-
cal influence back of him, no West Point
degree.
And he has won and richly deserved
every honor he has received. As a dis
cipinarian and an organizer he has few
equals. As a fighter he has no superior.
Had there been more Burts in the late
war with Spain there would have been
fewer scandals in the commissary de-
partment, less neglect in the hospitals
and not so much fever and starvation
in the camps.
The War Department will make Il
mistake to dismiss General Burt from
@ volunteer service There is not
another regular army officer in camp ut
Jacksonville, so popular as he; few are
so efficient. and none have performed
the duties of their position more faithful
~ or with better results.
1t will he sad day for the North
Carolina troops when General Burt is
mustered out of the service. 1t will be
more than n mere swapping of titles or
n change of men: it will be positive
loss to the service and a disappointment
to his men.
1t is greatly to be hoped that it will
not be done. 1t is grievOus that this
brilliant man should be taken out of
career already so successful and so full
of the fairest promise of greater achieve
