He Talks to Summer School About the
Bedwins of the Desert.

DIR. Alfred III. Moment, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, delivered a very
interesting lecture in PulIen Hall last
night, to an appreciatiVe audience.
DR.. Moment is such scholar and Sc
lects his words SO we'll that his lecture
was not only charming but most in,
structure.
He told of the Bedwins, their coun-
try, their origin, their mode of lEing,
and of the part played by them III
the worlds history. 'The Bedwins, =
he said, were stagnant race, they
have progressed no. further in civilfza-
ton than Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
''They regarded their country as per-
Sonal property and think they possess
| the right to close it against all in
| trusion."
| DR.. Moment said that in order to
get an entrance into this strange coun-
| try, he had to sit with his interpreter
and the American consul on one side
| of the Jordan river and talk for two
| days with the old Chief of the Bed
wins across the river on the other
! bank, and even then they considered
| themselves fortunate in getting into
| the country
The Bedwins are very
moral race, their Mohamme-
dan religion endorses four
| wives, yet they rarely choose to have
but one They are kind to their wives,
| yet they hold them ON about the
same level as they do dogs and cat
| tie. They think horses and sheep too
good to be touched by them. The Bed
wins are a pastoral race. They give
to the world the finest sheep and
horses that have ever been raised in
any country.

DAVIS TO WED HIS EARLY LOVE
As a Brakeman He WOoed Her Long
Ago, But Her Parents Prevent
ed the Match.
Especial to North American. )

Philadelphia, July 26.-News comes
| from Shepherdstown. w. Va, that ex-
Senator Henry G.. Davis, the Demo
cratic Vice-presidential candidate, will
in the fall marry Mrs. Katherine Rey-
nolds, widow of DR.. John Reynolds
of Shepherdstown. Mrs. Reynolds is
seventy years DID, while Senator Davis
is eighty.
Many years ago, when Henry G..
Davis was a brakeman on the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad, he became
a sutton for the hand of Miss Gather
inc Cushwa, whose family was one of
the most prominent in Washington
county. Md. Miss Cushwa was a pro-
nounced beauty and was the &c
knowledged belle in the section in
which she lived.
She and young Davis met for the
first time at q dance at country
became her escort. The friendship
thus begun speedily ripened into love.
Davis proposed and the young wo-
man was willing, but her parents could
not reconcile themselves TO the idea of
their beautiful and accomplished
daughter marrying q poor railroad
brakeman, and the young man was
sent on his way
Young Davis disappeared, to rise
rapidly III the IdIlTOdu SGINlCS, ullIl
he became the richest and most pow
erful citizen in his State. while Miss
Cushwa became the bride of DR.. John
Reynolds, a prominent physician OF
Shepherdstown, her old or first flame
also in the course of time taking unto
himself a life partner in a distant
part of the State.
1t was not until many years al
terward that the two old lovers came
together again, one as a WidoWer ana
the other as a widow The old spark
rekindled into flame. with the re-
suit that there will be a notable wed
ing at the quaint old farm at Shep-
herdstown some time during the
month of October. SO the gossips say
Mrs. Reynolds is remarkably wei
preserved and for a half century OF
more has been social leader of Shep-
herdstown.
Mr.. Davis first wife was Miss Kate
A. Bantz, daughter of the famous old
time judge, Gideon Bantz, OF Freder-
lex. She was a verv handsome
woman, possessed of good educa-
ton and ambitious for the success OF
her husband. When they were mar
ried. in 1853, Mr.. Davis, then thirty
years of age, was comparatively poor
but with her help, his fortune grew
rapidly. She was his inspiration ahp
co-worker in building up the ne"
country around Elkins. and 1t was hel
mind that planned the village ana the
fine house that surmounts the hill al
the head of the main street.
