cured. Loss Falls Heavily
on Mrs Safer.

Weldon, n. c.. March ESPECIAL y
Judge Walter Clark's fine brick hotel at
Halifax was burned this morning at
about half past two o'clock and the
building and most of the contents are to-
tai losses. The hotel was a splendid
three-story brick structure and cost
$4,000 to build it. / learn that Judge
Clark did not have dollar of insurance
on 1T. The house was leased by Mrs.
NJ A. Safer, who conducted a splendid
hotel Superior Court was in session
and the hotel was full of guests, but all
escaped, as the fire was discovered in
the roof and the alarm was given be-
fore it had made any very great head
way. Judge Starbuck was in the hotel
and helped Mrs. Safer to save what fur
niture could be saved before the roof
fell in. Nothing was saved on the third
floor.
The citizens struggled heroically to
subdue the flames. but the fire had made
too much Roadway.
This house was first built for a winter
resort for sportsmen and was known as
the Southern Hotel. Mrs. Safer had no
insurance on her furniture and the loss
falls on her quite heavily The origin
of the fire is not known, but it is thought
that it was caused by defective tlue
near the top of the building.

THE JAMES TRAGEDY.
Coroner's Jury Unable to Locate the

Tarboro. y. c., March S.-(Special.)--
On Monday night of this week there
was organized here a Gillian Democratic
Club There was a large gathering in
the armory and the names of more than
one hundred were put on the list. Mr.
Ed Pennington was elected President of
the Club, and the following were elected
the vice presidents: Judge Philips. n.

elected on the executive committee: w

A. Holderness, Frank Powell. j. NJ
Baker, NJ. d. The real purpose of this
club is to do all in its power to secure
the nomination of Mr.. Gillian for Con-
gress. The real work will be left to the
executive committee that is composed
of active young men who will leave no
stone unturned Our people here believe
that Edgecombes candidate has claims
for the nomination that no other county
in the district possesses and we believe
that we have a man that will win out in
the convention.
The excitement as to the Jesse James
tragedy that occurred last Sunday has
about subsidized. Jesse James and the six
others who went with him to the house
of Mr.. Lewis have all been bound over
to court under bonds of $500 each. Court
is in session now at Greenville. 1t is
said that Jesse James has sworn out a
warrant against young Mr.. Lewis, the
son OF the old man Lewis, charging him
with the killing of his brother, Sam
James. Young Lewis was bound over to
court also. The coroners jury said
that Sam James came to his death in an
unknown way. The defence of Jesse
James will be that when he went to the
house of Lewis he had no pistol and no
one with him had one. But Mr.. Lewis
says that this is not so, because he had
Jesse James around the body when he
was shot by James. There will be
great conflict of testimony. The trial
will be had at Greenville this week.
DR.. j. W. Jones is in Franklin county
this week.
Mrs. John l.. Bridgers has returned

FRESHET IN THE WATEREE.
Interrupts the Seaboard Air Line Con
structlon Work.


The Seaboard Air Line construction depart
ment has overcome the cause OF the delay in
opening the direct road TO Tampa
As stated in Saturdays issue of The Star, the
delay was caused by freShet in the Wateree
river, which stopped the bridge building there.
Inc contractor not ready with the stone
PIERS on time. That bridge was all that delayed
the opening of the road, so the engineers deter
mined to put up temporary bridge. They
had driven piles for that purpose, and some con
struction trains had passed over the structure.
Meantime great freshet occurred on the riy-
er. The piles could not be driven beyond ten
feet in the sand, because at that distance they
struck the solid rock, Along with the freshet
large ferry barge came, struck the piles, turned
over on its side, and stood up a dam to
cause food twenty three feet high The piles
could not sustain such pressure. They gave
way and carried with them the entire structure.
The remedy for this is at hand. There were
eleven 4S-foot steel spans. intended to be used
for overhead street crossings in Columbia, 5. c.
Six of these steel spans will be taken for the
temporary use of the bridge. They will be- thrown
across the Wateree river that the route 10
Tampa may be opened Immediately.

s'Going to Bed" Etiquette.

It is always debatable point Of
etiquette whether hostess or guest
make first movement togo to bed, and
thus break up the evening gathering.
The guest may be overcome with fa-
tigue from days journey, the host
may be fdgeting under the strain of
entertaining. and longing for the guest
to show some signs by.whichs he can
gracefully and Hospitality suggest
that it is growing late" yet neither
quite likes to appear, as they think,
impolite. In fact, many visitors have
suffered agonies in t. ing to be agree
able, while the host and hostess were
doing their best to suppress their
yawns and to ''make conversation"
until chance offered solution to the
difficulty. There is, however, but
one rule to be followed in this rela-
tionship of host and hostess and the
honr Of retirement. The host or host
ess must always take the initiative
and say an appropriate word as to the
lateness Of the hour and the desirable
ity of going 10 bed.
