LECTURE ON AFRICA.
Sunday evening the guests, not only
Of tho hotel, but Of all the nearby coun-
I try were granted the privilege OF hear
Ing an unusually interesting lecture on
Africa By the Rev; William Sheppard
one OF the best known, most earnest and
most successful missionaries to the Dark
Continent. The ballroom, which was
rendered by Mrs. Eubank for the ocoa-
sion. was filled to the utmostfWith en-
thusiastic listeners, as DIR, Sheppard, har-
/ Ing lived his boyhood days here, boasts
unlimited friends among both races, and
none OF the many who heard and en-
jQyed his lecture could help but feel and
be affected by the force and power and
good of tho man before them. Perhaps
the interest was made keener BY the
realization that the next day the speaker
was to leave again for Africa. where, for
ten years, he must be away from coun-
try, home and friends ia
For those who ride and drive, or walk,
afternoon tea at Tasslfern ard The Oaks
has become delightful habit, these
places proving verltable ,club-houses. in
that respect, and daily the broad piazzas
and quaint old rooms see an Eager crowd
OF tca-trinkers from the different resorts
