Lake Lucerne the Place for Two Days
OF Pleasure.

This morning at half-past o'clock
a merry party left Raleigh bound for
Lake Lucerne, seventeen miles away,
where for two days picnic pleasures
and sport will be the rule.
The Lake Lucerne property belongs
to Mr.. A. Dughi, of this city, and it's
attractions are such that it is certain
to become great pleasure resort. be-
ing directly on the line of the Raleigh
and Pamlico Sound Railway. Mr..
Dughi and his friends will have a
party picnic to-day and tomorrow
there will be a general country pic
mic, with 500 to 500 people present
from all the surrounding section.
In the party that lett this morning
with others, were the guests of Miss
Annie Ought these belnS Miss Rosa
Mag, of Baltimore; Miss Tina
Stanoni, of Durham; Miss Annie AL
ford, of Georgia, and Mrs. Z. Holland,
of Washington city. At 1880 the
party is due at Wendell, here Mrs.
Charles Todd will serve hot coffee
and sandwiches. At 5 o'clock they
will arrive at Lake I.ucerne. where
fish fry will be waiting. AT in the
afternoon there will be a barbecue.
At night a big party of young poo
pie win come over from Wakefield
bringing with them a band of music.
This will find Japanese lanterns and

big time of dancing in the farm house

Wednesday is to be the day of the

been resented by Japan.
The japanese Hope Nothing.
Among the Japanese tonight no
lote of hope is sounded. With gen
line reluctance they seem almost re-
signed to the shipwreck of the con-
ference. They declare that their po-
ition is unchanged and they speak of
renewing their war with a snap OF
their black eyes which speaks vol
umes for their confidence in the sue
cess of Oyama when the word is given
to advance.
I'VE have fought for a lasting
peace said one of the attaches
closest to the chiefs. I'VE have been
victorious. If Russia came to Ports
mouth unprepared to pay the price of
defeat all is over. We do not believe
that the President considers our terms
unreasonable. He knows Japan's po-
sition as accurately as does any of
the Japanese plenipotentiarieS. We
do not believe he will even ask us to
weaken at the last moment and yield,
even to save the negotiations. Hearth
ly as the whole world desires peace,
Japan believes the neutral powers
would prefer that war should continue
for a year or even two years longer
rather than Japan for the sake of i'm
sions now and be forced perhaps a
decade hence, to reopen hostilities.
The plenipotentiaries and members
of their suites apparently had little to
do today.
Those of the latter who were not
engaged in completing the final drafts
of the protocols joined in the festivi-'
ties of this pleasant summer resort
But when the subject of the negotia-
tons was mentioned their answers
We're almost invariably pessimistic and
some of them openly predicted that
the end would come tomorrow
Boron Komura and Mr.. Takahira
came down stairs this afternoon to
sit for a photograph in a group of
newspaper correspondents and then
retired, to be seen no more today
Mr.. White in the morning took occa-
sion to show himself in the lobby of
the hotel sa if to contradict the stories
that he was i'll. In the afternoon he
and Baron RoSen went out for a spin
