RigSbee.NewcOmb.

From the Raleigh Post we take the
following notice of the marriage of
Miss Leila. Newcomb. which was
solemnized in Raleigh Wednesday of
last week. The bride formerly lived
in Henderson and is well known and
quite popular here. She is sister of
Mr.. A. P. Newcomb. of this place. The
Post says:
At the residence of Mr.. Charles w.
Newcomb on North Halifax street yes
terday at half after two O'Clock Miss
Leila T. Newcomb was united to Mr..
Robert II Rigsbee, of Durham. num-
Der of friends and relatives gathered to
witness the happy event. The ceremony
was performed in the drawing room to
the left by Rev. ". c. Tyree, pastor of
the First Baptist church OF Durham.
The drawing room was artistically deco
rated in white oleanders and palms.
The bride and her maid of honor, Miss
Susan Timberlake, were attired in white
Organdy. The best man was Mr.. Will
liam Rigsbee, brother of the groom.
After receiving congratulations from
their numerous friends Mr.. and Mrs.
Rigsbee left in the afternoon for the
mountains of Virginia, where they will
spend several weeks before going to Dur
ham to make their home. The brides
circle of admirers embrace her every ac-
quaintance, and no higher compliment
could be merited by any one. ThegroOm
has spent several years in Raleigh and
was always popular among those whose
pleasure it Was to enjoy his intimate
acquaintance.

visited The Old Home After Manv
Years,

Two distinguished gentlemen, both
natives of this section. one an hon
ored citizen Of another State and an
eN-member Of Congress, the other a
no less honored son but not so promi-
neht IN public life as his younger
prother, were Henderson visitors Mon
day They were Dr. V. f. Turner, of
Raleigh, and Hon. HenrvG. Turner, of
Qultman, Ga. To the older residents
OF Henderson both are well known
and as greatly esteemed.
1t was in Haysville Township,
franklin county, that they were
reared and out to the old home place
they drove Monday to view again the
scenes OF their youthful years They
cut canes and brought away other
mementoes and counted the dav we'll
spent. 1t had been many years since
Mr.. Henry Turner had visited the old
home and one can better imagine
than describe the thoughts and feel
ms that came trooping upon him as
he looked again upon the scenes and
surroundings that knew him so well
in the dim distant past now gone for
ever.
Both gentlemen were guests Of Mr..

The New Methodist Protestant Church.

We have seen the drawings and
plans to the Methodist. Protestant
church to be erected in Henderson,
as heretofore mentioned. They are
very pretty and as far as the general
arrangement of the interior is con-
cerned we do not see as it could we'll
be improved upon. The drawings
are on an elaborate scale and show
structure that will be an ornament
to the town, credit to the Methodist
Protestant congregation and an honor
to their Christian spirit.
The ladies are invited to see the line of

Remarks at the Funeral of DR.. Nc
Cracker.

At the funeral services of DR.. c.
l.. McCracken held last Thursday
morning touching and appropriate
remarks on the life and character of
the dead were made by the pastors
present, Revs. Shaw, McCullen, Will
liams and DR.. Hufham. The remarks
by DR.. Hufham were as follows:
1.-The hand of the reaper
Takes the cares that are hOary,
But the voice OF the Weeper
Walls manhood in glory;
The autumn winds rushing
Watt the leaves that are SereSt
But one flower was in flushing
When the blighting was nearest"
So sang the Scotch clansmen over the
warrior fallen in battle. We repeat the
dirge to-day oyer the good soldier of
Jesus Christ, taken from us in the fulness
of his powers and in the moment of vic
tory.
He came among us a stranger on a
difficult and delicate mission, and men
withheld their confidence, waiting to see
wait long. He demeaned himself with
gentleness and dignity, asking nothing,
quietly and gracefully accepting offered
courtesies, never fawning and never pre-
Stunning, criticising no one but himself,
pushing his work as one called of God.
AS they watched him the people came to
understand that he was not only aChris-
tian scholar and educator, an able ad
ministrator, a wise counselor and a good
minister of Jesus Christ, but also at all
times and in all places a gentleman.
His work is done and we'll done. He
has filled up Gods plan OF his life and
by the will of God he has fallen asleep.
There has been no mistake. All Gods
ways are best The faithful servant has
his reward, partly in this: that the task
which he has laid down will, through
what he has done, be easier for those who
shall stand in his place.
l greatly admired DR.. McCracken and
it was my purpose to see and know more
of him. But he was a busy man and so
am l. Now the opportunity has passed.
But Heaven is near and in that land
where the saved never die, we shall have
leisure for more love and knowledge of
each other. God bless the institution
over which he presided and the pupils to
whose training be brought wise instruc-
tons, holy example, and a heavenly
spirit. The blessing of the Son which
maketh rich land He addeth no sorrow
with it) rest upon the faithful companion
and helper of his cOnsecrated labOrs.

WANT THE MIDLAND
Territory is Anxious TO Get
the Extension.
TOWNS WILLING TO HELP
South McAIester Man Sums
up the Situation.

H. H. Ward, one of the wealthiest men
in the vicinity of South McAlester, Indian
Territory. was in the city yesterday on a
matter of business connected with the
mining business of that country. Mr..
Ward says that the people there conf
IDENTIFY expect to be connected with Wich-
tia by direct rail within another year.
Speaking to a reporter for the Eagle
Mr.. Ward said:
I'VE are anxious for the Midland. We
have been looking for that committee that
was TO lay out the route every day for a
week, but it hasn't shown up. We are
willing to help substantially and so are
the towns between here and South Nc
Alester. We want the road down there
for the reason that it will help US. You
ought to go ahead and look after the ex-
tension of the Midland because it viii
open to your section of country a direct
line to the coal fields. 1t will dispose OF
some more of your agricultural products.
1t will be an easy matter TO put the Mid
land from Wichita TO the southeast to-
ward South McAlester, because every
pooy wants IL duo IL "ItiiuS " heiP'
Upon inquiry 1t was learned that the
Midland committee here, composed OF
Thomas G.. Fitch, Chas. Aylesbury and j.
o. Davidson, has not yet appointed the
investigators or route committee, which
is to go over the line and select the most
feasible route. The Midland directors
have been slow in the matter and the citi-
zen's committee has been waiting. The
matter will probably be taken up soon il
the Midland officials will take hold Of
! the proposition and help some.

DELIGHTFUL HUMBUGS
Beautiful Woman Whose Illusions
are Pulling.

It is not a bad sensation to be hum
buged, if ii Is well done. Barnum said the
American people delighted in it, and Bar
mum knew. The exhibition of illusions at
lis North Main street illustrates some an
cient and familiar tales from mythology
in Temarka BILE and novel way. The man
ager, Mr. ]. B. Morris, claims to have the
cream Of all illusions. The managers
young wife is the fair creature who be-
fuddles the senses with her illusion tricks.
She first appears in the Galatea mystery
it is the slow poisoning of a beautiful
woman from a statute. 1t mystfies the
spectators completely. He knows of
course that it is all trick. but so cleverly
done that he finds the keenest pleasure in
being deceived. The flying lady is also
a very wonderful piece of work. There is
a circular ocean scene, we'll lighted. and
suddenly up into space a beautifully form
ed woman appears; she moves and turns
easily and gracefully about with as much
ease and poetry of motion as a bird. and
finally dives headlong from sight. These
with the illusion Rolla and the really
wonderful thinking automaton Psyche,
makes one of the most interesting and
attrd ctive entertainments ever given IN
this city The exhibition is given for the
Wichita hospital; the sale OF tickets is
in charge of the ladies of the hospital.
The audience room was well filed yester-
day afternoon and at night, the attendance
increasing as the merit of the exhibition
becomes known.
