FRIDAY, JUNE 7, 1907.

Of her uncle, Mr.. Sidney Hogue last
Wednesday morning to Mr.. Thomas
Edward Cato of Chesterfield county.
There were a number of friends and
relatives present and the home or Mr..
and Mrs. Hogue, especially the parlor
was beautifully decorated for the oc-
casion. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. w. B. Arrowood of Bethel and
| the wedding march was played by
Mrs. ]. b. Ford. Mr.. and Mrs. Cato
| left soon after the marriage for Tir-
Zah, where they took the train for
their future home in Chesterfield.
Extra Fine Wheat.
Mr. j. E. Gettys Of Yorkvilie No. 4,
sends The Enquirer some specimens OF
Virginia High Grade wheat that are
about as fine as one ever sees in this
locality. Some of the heads are seven
inches long, and contain twenty-six
| houses" with four grains to the
house" 1t seems, however, that the
crop Is nothing to brag on as to guam
| tity. The seed were two years old
when planted, and badly weavil eaten.
AS the result there Is not more than
a fourth of stand, and Mr.. Gettys
will hardly get his seed back. But
the variety Is something unusual for
this section. The seed came from T.
w. Woods & Sons.
The jamestown Trip.
Col. w. w. Lewis, commander OF
the First regiment has sent out the
following information to company
commanders with view to determin-
ing the practicability of taking the
regiment or a portion Of II to the
jamestown exposition: "This office has
been notified by the adjutant general
that he Is able to appropriate enough
money for this (the 1sD regiment to
pay the transportation to and from
Jamestown, and to give the officers
and men four days pay, and the en-
listed men subsistence at the govern
ment rate for four days. He states
that II we desire to stay longer than
/ four days we will, Of course, have to
bear the extra expense ourselves, and
with view to reducing the cost to
minimum, he Is willing to allow US to
use $4,000 Of the funds that would
be appropriated to the companies and
band for incidental expenses out Of the
regular annual appropriation. 1t is not
deemed advisable to make the trip less
than ten days, and the subsistence
and incidental expenses will amount
Ito $3.50 for each officer and man. In
order therefore to make up his amount
it will be necessary for the enlisted
men to forfeit their pay, and contri-
luule Out VI tiieiE poShStS III 1SSotu
ance with the following schedules:
Privates will contribute, each, 1851;
corporals, 1923; sergeants, $2.83;
lquartermaster sergeants, Company
$1.91: first sergeant, $1.91; quarter
master sergeant, II. Officers, will
have to bear their own expenses, out
Of their pay, which will amount to
$3.50. The trip will not be made un-
less every company will go and carry
at least thirty-two men and three Of
ficers, and not more than forty men
and three officers, the band at least
eighteen men, and full complement
of field, staff and non commissioned
staff officers and the hospital corps.
lQuarters can be secured for the 18th OF
July, and II the trip is made, the move
ment would start on the Gath OF July.
While military duties will not be dis
Ipensed with, at the same time 1t Will
be consistent with the maintenance OF
good order and discipline, but when
the men are called upon to perform
duty 1t will be expected and demand
ed that II be done In a soldiery man
ner" 1t is hardly necessary to re-
mind the regiment that the men will
be expected to conduct themselves as
Carolinians and gentlemen, and in a
manner that will help to uphold the
proud record that the regiment has
heretofore made along this line. Com
pany commanders will take this matter
lup with their several commands at
once, and determine IL they are willing
to go on the foregoing terms and con-
lditions, and advise this Office OF the
result at the earliest possible moment"
