church he served, his funeral was
preached in the church and his
remains were given their last
earthly attention by the ste wards
Of the church who acted as his
pail bearers. A large concourse
was present and to an outsider
his funeral was such as may not
be had by many man a with white
skin and greater ~pretensions.
Henry was not ostentatious, al
ways quiet and polite, unpresump-
tuous. knew his position, kept his
course and won the good fight.
All honor to Henry Reeves and
his like.

NEGRO, JOHN WATSON. KILLED.
His Reputed Slayer, Cal Cowan, Also a
Negro, held for the Crime.

"15'u, helu !Ul Inc Urine.
For the third successive week.
Salisbury has had the misfortune
to be a point of horrible deaths, to
say n,thing of three white men,
Fred Freelaud, Jack Canup and
3. W. Thaxton's terrible fates.
three Negroes, one a week have
taken their departure in the ways
stated. This case, the latest, &C.
CURED late Saturday evening and
Is believed to have been cold blood
ed murder. About dusk John Wat
son. the victim, and Cal Cowan,
the supposed murderer, accompa-
MED by Will Cowan, all Negroes,
could have been seen making their
way toward the railroad, at a point
known as Harrison's crossing. Ac-
cordlng to the testimony brought
out at the c%oroner's inquest, Wat
son and Cowan were enemies,
Watson had threatened to kill
Cowan and they we're cursing just
previous to the death. Upon
reaching the railroad, as the story
is told by Will Cowan, a south
bound freight came along and
Watson and Cal Cowan crossed
the track in front of it, leaving
Will Cowan on the other side.lAf-
ter the train passed Will Cowan
saw Cowan going up the track and
hastened to catch up and upon
doing SO he'inquired after Watson.
Cowan replied by saying he did
know, but thought the train had
killed him. Will then returned
to the spot and found Watson
dead, some distance from the
track. The coroner's Jury held an
inquest over the body Sunday af-
ternoon, and owing to location and
nature of the wounds, about the
head and face: it was decided that
Watson was murdered and that
Cowan was the murderer, Cowan
was then arrested and placed in
Jail, without bond to await the
next term of Rowan Superior
court.
The cause of the trouble is said
to have beed owing to Cowan's at.
tention to Watson's wife. Wat
SOD had repeatedly requested Cow
an to stay away from his house,
but Cowan's visits became more
frequent and threats to kill Wat.
son were made. The wounds on
Watson's forehead and face indi-
Gated the use Of sharp pointed
stones, and it is said bloody stones
that may have been used by the
murderer we're found near by.
These and other significant facts
caused the jury to unanimously
come to the CONCLUSION that there
was nothing in the story of death
by being struck by the train, but
that Cowan was the murderer.

TO EDUCATE
HAWA||ANS

Minstrelsy is to have another in
nings in Honolulu and it promises to be
right good cue,
This time it is u couple of entertain
ments to be given under the auspices
of the Kamehameha Alumni Associa.
tion, the proceeds to be devoted to the
associations fund for the paying of
tuition of boys and girls desirous of at
tending the Kamehameha Schools, an
object which has been feature of the
association since its organization.
The shows will be given at the Or
pheum and the first one will take place
on Saturday night, the second perform
ance occurring week later.
The program will be carried out by
Kamehamehans past and present, as
sisted by local talent, and will be a
very novel and attractive one.
Thirty performers have been rehears-
ing for the great event ever since last
May and commendable stage of per-
fection has been arrived at.
The first part Of the program will
consist of an orthodox minstrel first
part and the olio will embrace a couple
of laughable sketches and songs, dances
and jokes galore.
Popular prices will prevail on both
occasions and tickets may be obtained
from the Bergstrom Music Co. and
members of the Kamehameha Alumni
Association. The box office at the Or
pheum opens today.
The stage management of the affair
is in the hands If w. ID. Adams.
The officers of the Kamehameha
Alumni Association are as follows:
President, Harry Aud; vice pres
ident, Rev. j. l.. Hopgood; secretary,
d. Pahu; treasurer, T. Treadway; audi
tor, A. A. Dunn; corresponding secre-
tary, S. Kaaloa.

sists of: S. X. Fukamura, chairman;
A. A. Dunn, II. Treadway, M. Hardee,

STALE INDEED.

Editor Advertiser: The Star is a
victim of the imagination, which is a
common occurrence in cases OF senile
dementia. 1t really believes itself to
be facetious. 1t reminds me of a
minister who. at dinner party, told
an intolerably long and prosy story,
which had funereal effect. Within
twenty minutes he forgot that he had
told it and repeated it. Then every
body roared, and he thought the guests
were laughing at the story.
The general impression is that the
Star doesn't know whether it is bob
tailed comet, in the first throes of dis
solution. or a decayed fish of its own
name. In either case the phosphores-
cence is stale. LEGIS.

BOOTH IN AUSTRALIA.

MELBOURNE, July 5.--Gen. Booths

veteran Salvationist stated that in
nine weeks he had Travelled $500 miles,
had held 102 meetings, attended by
10000 people, had lunched with the
governor general. and with members
Of the cabinets Of all the states he had
visited. He was encouraged by the
results OF his tour. which included the
saving OF 100 souls and the procuring
Of 100 more candidates for salvation.

SONGS WITHOUT WORDS.

AMSTERDAM, July GA new form
of song is moving music lovers on the
Continent who are weary of the con-
ventional ballad. 1t is a real song
without words-a bird-like warbling
which expresses phases of nature and
of sentiment without the distracting
use OF language. The high priestess
Of this impressionist singing is Nine.
Katherine van Rennes.
Why should there not be impression
ism in song as we'll as In paintingT'
inquired one of Nine. Van Rennes' fol-
lowers during the course Of an inter-
view.
You take particular phase of ma
Sture and express It in painting in
which the subtle blending OF color Is
more important than the form.

only spoil the song.
"one of Nine Van Rennes' followers
sang some impressionist songs in a
language which her audience did not
know, but the singing was so express
