Port Arthur, Texas, March 25.-The

Canal took place here to-day. Over
three thousand visitors from all parts
of the country were present, and the
ceremonies were participated in by Gov
crnorS SaycrS. of Texas; Jones, of Ar
kansas. and Stanley, of Kansas; practi-
cally all the members of the Texas Leg
islature; large number of members of
the Kansas Legislature, Il delegation of
foreign capitalists and several trainloads
of eXcursionsts.
The programme included an elaborate
procession of yachts, tugs and excursion
steamers through the canal and to the
docks here, followed by an address by
Mayor r. n. String, of Port Arthur;
Vice President E. j. Martini, of the
Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf rail

kinston. \. c., March 25.-(Special)-
4 fearful double tragedy has thrown its
black shadow over this community. The
red hand of murder and suicide has
blotted out two lives in the very dawn
of young manhood and wOmanhood
Two pulseless figures, found lying in Il
lonely place not far from the outskirts
of the city form the central figures in
the final scene of what appears to be Il
story of love and dispair.
The details of the tragedy are some
what meagre. All that appears to be
known as yet is that on Friday morning
I0nnie Lane, young man about twenty
two years old, and Miss Glennie Sauls,
aged fourteep or thereaboutS went for
a walk together. After that nothing
more was seen of them alive. In the
afternoon their prolonged absence
aroused the anxiety of their families
and ii search was instituted. the result
of which wis the finding of the bodies.

AN HOUR WITH KIPLING.
\ Notable Lecture BY Mrs. Charlotte
Perkins StetSon.

THE principal fact in Atlanta for the
past week has been Mrs. Stetson. She
has pervaded everything. She has been
like leaven in Il mass of inanimIte mat
ter and the fermentation is tremendous
Thus begins one of the innumerable
eulogieS with which Atlanta'S papers
were filed a little while back. In Tie
literary and social world of the South
prn city. the magnetic personality and
big brain of this daughter of the
Beechers have made themselves felt.
Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Stetson is Il
great niece of Henry Ward Beecher, and
an inheritOr of the keen wit and broad
sympathy of the great New Englander.
Her work began ten years ago during
her residence in California. One of the
most powerful of American short stories,
The Yellow Wall Paper: brilliant essay
on The Labor Movement; volume of
poems glowingly criticised by VIM. Dean
Howells in Harper's Weekly; and re
Gently a sociological study, Woman and
Economics, have come from her pen.
The last has called forth glowing
criticisms in magazine and paper; a lee
tnre on the author by the well known
critic, Harry Thurston Peck before
literateurs i'll New York; and an article
in Current Literature pronOunclng her
''the brainiest woman in America 1t is
said to be "a book which fixes the atten-
ton from the first page and is not to
be forgotten with the last, ito be adj
mired for its clearness, earneStneSs,
courage, keen wit and shrewd satire"
The poems In This Our World" are
now for the first time published in ade-
ouate form in this country. Curiously
enough. however, an edition has been
for some time on the English market.
But it is with Mrs. Stetson as Il lectur-
er that we have to do. She has spoken
with rare success through the West and
East. and in Great Britain during her
visit in 1896 She is en- route for Wash
ington Philadelp ia and L0ndon.( There
She lectures in ! me- in Queens Hall by
invitation of tl International Congress
of Women. He lectures embrace topics
literary, religious and sociological. Early
in Easter week. the Raleigh public will
have the opportunity of hearing this
gifted woman talk for a short while on
Rudyard Kipling.

u Mad Love THAI Killed
MURDER FOLLOWED BY SUICIDE
NEAR KINSTON.
Lonnie Lane Shoots Miss Glennie Sauls and
Then Turns His Desperate Hand
Against Himself.

Both were members Of wcIl-to-do
families.
All the circumstances Indicate that the
young man first shot the girl and then
killed himself, as there is no reason TO
suppose that they were the victims Of
foul play at the hands of third party.
Young Lane had been paying attcn-
tion to Miss Sauls for some time. but
her parents had objected and finally for
bade him the house. II is supposed
that he had been brooding over the
affair and either induced the girl to ac-
company him with the deliberate pur-
pose of ending both lives or committed
the deed in Il moment Of frenzy No
other reason. it seems. can be assigned
for the deplorable tragedy.
The grief of the stricken families is
pitiable.
Thus twice within a week this com
munity has been shocked by bloody
tragedy, as it was only last Saturday
that Sig Einstein committed suicide
here.

the highest point of solemnity and lm-

DISSOLUTION POSTPONED.
The Cuban Assembly Sends Two Envoys
to Washington.

Havana, March 25.-At the secret ses-
sion of the Cuban military assembly yes
terday it was resolved that a dissolu-
ton of that body at the present time

for to-day. should be postponed for one
week. 1t was also decided to make
another effort to save the situation by
sending Senors Hevia and Vilalon to
Washington in order to state the case of
the assembly to President Mckinley,
and to attempt to gain his cooperation
in the efforts of the assembly to raise
more money for the Cuban troops.
Senors Hevia and Nillalon sailed for

to Otis have about 10000 in line But
AguinaldoS reserves, $4,000 strong. are
