Lunch Pavilion at the Springs.
Fuquay Springs, n. c., May 20
Mr. Thomas Kyle who has minister
ed with such unfailing courtesy and
tact to the wants of the visitors at
Fuquay Springs for the past two sea-
sons, has erected pavilion in the
grove near the spring, a beautiful
building painted colonial yellow with
white trimming. 1t is in sharp con-
trast to the rude shacks that have
been allowed to cumber the picnic
grounds Here he will cater to the
wants of hungry excursionists with
cold lunches, lemonade and ice cream
The loss of the hotel will be keenly
felt this summer, for applications for
board for families for the entire
season had been received before the
destruction by fire on March 4th
The boarding houses are opening ear
ly and will do their best to entertain
the visitors, while the pavilion will
supply lunches to excursion parties
Several new cottages have been erect
ed this winter and spring. Fuquay
is first Of all place of homes and
substantial citizens, not mere sum-
mer resort with nothing behind that.

Refuses to Treat With
the French Government
Through N. Taigny.
CONSIDER PROTEST AN INSULT
France Asks Government to Reconsider
It's Last Note Referring to the Clos
ing Of the Land Stations Of the
French Cable Company.

Caracas, Sept. 24.-The French gov
ernment has asked the Venezuelan gov
ernment to reconsider its last note. The
note referred to was issued on Sept.
20 by the Venezuelan government and
in reply to- a protest lodged on Sept
10 by NJ. Taigny, the French charge d..
affairs against the closing Of the land
stations OF the French Cable company,
and the expulsion Of the manager Of the
company, N. Brun.
II il said that the government holds
documents proving that the French
Cable company accepted the result Of
the judicial proceedings brought against
it and the government is only waiting
to establish new relations between II
and the company. NJ. Taigny knows this
and therefore the protest can only be
considered an act Of personal hostility.
for this reson the government will alb
stain from treating with the French gov.
ernmcnt through n. Taigny.
