The farmers were blessed with a few
days of fair weather last week, but,
alas! it is raining again.
Mr.. Julius Ducworth, one OF our at
tractiye and energetic young men, has
gone to Macon, Ga, where he is taking
a business course. We wish Julius
much success.
Master Ralph King, a son of Mr.. and
Mrs. T. NJ. King, had the misfortune OF
getting his hand burned one day last
week. 1t is not serious, and we hope
the little fellow will not suffer very
much, for we know how to sympathize
with any who has Il burn.
Miss Matte Finley, one of Trinity's
most popular and beautiful young la
dies, has been suffering for some days
with a felon on her thumb, but we are
glad to see that she is well once more.
The recent freeze caused several
pipes to burst in the ginncry OF Nlcssrs.
Finley s. CO., and caused them to be
delayed with their work last week, but
they are up again and ut work.
The rain caused several of our boys
to have the blues last Sunday, as twas
so bad they could not leave home.
Cheer up, boys, the sun will shine some
time and then you can get to go to see
the "B. ]. r. Sweet One" -.
Last Thursday morning, as the sun
started on his days Journey, and
everybody was ut theirduty, the young
people were thinking of the jolly time
they were expecting that night. twas
sociable given at Mr.. p. H. Browns
in honor of Miss Pet Finley, who is one
among the bellies of our community.
The night came; the wind ceased its
harsh blowing and became u gentle
breeze. Then the boys and girls came
pouring in until the room was well fill
ed, when, at the suggestion OF Miss
Pet, they started their fun, which con-
sisted in all the funniest plays, laugh
ing and talking, until it came to the
spinning of the plate. When "Ben's''
number was called he was 50 anxious
to get it before it fell he fell down
upon it. The plate was well supplied
with molasscs, which, of course, Ben
got over his hands and face. He was
quite astonishcd when he found what
he had gotten into, bit the crowd was
sofull Of laughter that he s;lid thing
but made for the wash pan and water.
BE careful next time, Ben, and carry
some bread with You, and not try to
dick. the plate with your nose. So
the time passed, and when wc.lookcd
out in tile heavens, what attract
our attention but the brightness oi the
beautiful moon, with all the many
beautiful stars around her. Itwas one
of those nights when swcctllcarts love
to walk and tell each other of their
lovc,. WHEN the poets think I. their
most beautiful sayings. But, oh. this
beautiful moon had reached halfway
on her majestic .our, and the cloclwas
telling the time when all should retire,
so bidding each a.licll, and wishing to

AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRA
Death of Gen. Delaware Kemper, Former
Consul to Annoy, China.
Served With Distinction In COnfeder-
ate Army During the Civil
War-General Matters.
Evening Star Bureau,
No. 721 King Street,
Bell Telephone No. LOG,

ALEXANDRIA, Va, June 30, 1899.
General Delaware Kemper died this
morning about 7 o'clock at his residence
on South Pitt street, between Duke and
Prince streets. The general had been
gradually failing for the past six months
from an asthmatic affection, and his death
| while coming somewhat suddenly, was not
wholly unexpected. The news soon spread
over town, occasioning deep sorrow, and
numerous expressions of sympathy were
received by the family of the deceased. Two
sons and a daughter. all grown, survive
him.
General Delaware Kemper was we'll
known, not only in his native state, but
throughout the country, having occupied
positions of honor and trust under the ma
tionai government He was highly esteem
ed and regarded as a man of sterling in
tegrity, and his reputation for bravery as
confederate soldier was of the highest
order.
The deceased was brother of ex-Mayor
K Kemper of this city. He was a son of
the late Col. William S. hemper, and was
| in the year 1888 He was, therefore, sixty
six years of age. Educated at the Univer-
sity of Virginia, he began his work in life
by teaching school, first at Gordonsville
| of the principals of the old Alexandria
! Academy. He married Miss Fannie Hay
of Camden, s. c., whom he survived by
several years.
At the outbreak of the civil war Delaware
Kemper enlisted in the confederate army,
leaving this city as captain of the AleXan-
dria Light Infantry. Later on this battery
became one of the most famous in the con-
federate service and was highly commended
in official dispatches by General Beaure-
gard.
At the second battle Tef Manassas the
young officer then major of artillery, was
severely wounded. After recovering he
was, on recommendation of Gen. Beaure-
gard, assigned to duty at the defenses OF
Charleston On the retirement of Gen.
Hardee's army he was placed In command
of all the reserve artillery stationed in that
city. There he served with distinction,
handling his ever-dwindiing forces with re-
markable skill and ability during the clos
ing days of the war. He vas recommended
by his superior officer, Gen. Beauregard.
for promotion to the rank of brigadier gen.
era1 of artillery, but. the war ending soon
after. he was left at his post, where he vir-
tually held that rank.
Consul Under Cleveland.
Under President Cleveland's administra-
ton General Kemper was appointed as
United States consul to Annoy, China. He
proved a highly efficient representative at
this post for nearly four years. Returning
to America, he purchased stock in the
Alexandria Times, and, as editor, directed
the affairs of this journal for some time
Less than year ago General kemper sew
