FAIR HENDERSONWLLE.

The following appeared in the
Raleigh News and Observer on
Wednesday morning, june 10,
during the session of the Grand
Lodge of Pythians in the capital
city:
Hendersonville will extend an
invitation to the Grand Lodge
Knights of Pythians, now in sess-
ion here, to hold its next meeting
in that beautiful mountain resort.
The Pythian representatives from
Hendersonville are Rev. r. N.
Wilcox, Mr.. C. E. Brooks and
Assistant Labor Commissioner
M. L. Shipman. Speaking of the
matter last night Mr. Shipman
said:
"Hendersonville is anxious for
an opportunity to entertain the
Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias
and has authorized the represent
atives from that place to extend
a pressing invitation for the next
annual meeting to be held there.
The Grand Lodge of Odd Eel
lows held its session for 1903 in
Hendersonville last month, and
the members were lavish in their
praise ofthe courteous treatment
and the splendid entertainment
they received. At that time, only
two of the three mammoth hotels
were open. Next June, when the
Pythians of the State shall again
convene, Hotel Wheeler, a mag
nificent resort place, will be open
for the season, thus assuring
ample accommodations for all
Pythian delegates and others
who may be in attendance.
furthermore, we have very
appropriate quarters Tor the ID.
70. K. KS and their tiger. If the
brethren accept our invitation
we will give them the time of
their lives No sort of question
about that. The eastern folks
would enjoy a visit to the mount.
aims, anyway, where the maj.
este peaks pierce the clouds and
you can tickle the feet of the
angels"
Hendersonville wants the
Pythians and her people will be
disappointed if the invitation is
not accepted"

PLAY
BALL!

Laurel Park Tuesday after
noon contained by far the largest
crowd it has held this season,
which gathered to witness an in
teresting game of baseball be-
tween the Hendersonville First
Nine and the Skyland Hosiery
Mills. The locals trimme dthem-
selves up in the high triumphant
tone of five to nothing over the
Skylanders.
The weather was pleasant and
everythingwas in shapefo for good
game. Some Of the old players
said it was the best and smoothest
game that had been seen here
for a long time.
The visitors put on a brilliant
appearance in their uniforms,
but the home boys proved to be
too much for them.
The First Nine contained some
boys that have proven themselves
to be efficient players in various
leagues. If they will only keep
themselves in practice they will
be able to pull of some stunt
games this season.
There were more than enough
people on the ground to fill the
grand stand, and they being SO
we'll pleased at the game stands
to show that they are ready to
see you boys. do some more of
the old fashioned playing.
Before the game was called
some of the players were in the
field practing. unfortunately
Frank Edwards, on trying to
catch a ball, stepped into a little
hole which resulted in spraining
his ankle. He seemed to be in
great misery, so was hurried to
the doctor.
The players were linedup as
follouyc.

Patton Short Stop Summey
Umpire: Police Reece.
Spencer Salisbury, a very
strong team, will probably be
here on Friday. They play in
Asheville on Thursday.
The Hendersonville baseball
boys had such avictory over the
Skyland boys Tuesday they have
|become greately enthused over
the matter and as a result had a
conference among themselves
Wednesday night in order to or.
game themselves ready for
some hot games.
They want it clearly understood
by the different nearby teams
that they have played ball, car
play ball, and will play ball, il
they are given a chance. It is
rumored that the Spencer-Salis-
bury boys will be here Thursday
for a game but the boys have not
sufficient authority to announce
the play.
Hendersonville is expecting the
Spartanburg mill boys to be over
for a game Saturday afternoon.
Boys, you proved yesterday that
you can play ball, so it is up to
you now to convince, the other
teams of the fact.

| being succeeded by quadrilles. Some
times a 1.-THE and sinuous jig-dancer
got a space cleared for himself to dis
port in, and great was the enthusiasm
when some girl would accept chal-
lsnge and come out on the boards to
do turn with the jig-dancer. Such ad-
vancing and swaying and retreating;
such apparent Indifference and then
unexampled vigor; such hammering
of the boards and turning and twist
ing, until at the end the crowd roared
its approval and the dancers disap-
peared among the spectators.
Political society at the picnics, dem
ocratic as it seemed at first blush, had
it's lines of demarcation, which were
quite noticeably drawn. The wife and
daughters of the big boss" were on
hand, together with the women-folks
of the various office-holders, but they
did not mingle with the average lady
picnickers. They sat by themselves
in something of exclusive grandeur,
and were pointed out by the more
ordinary of the merry-makers to their
companions.
Sometimes a possible presidential
candidate graced the occasion by his
presence and consented to hand out a
sample of silver-tongued oratory. But
| never heard one yet who could draw
away any of the attendance at the,
baseball game or the fat women's race.
IN ,
Great was the CONSERVATION when.
as sometimes happened, the flood,
gates of heaven opened and drowned
the picnic grounds. The last political
picnic l attended commenced on a
very threatening day, and at last the
clouds seemed to make up their minds
to sweep the grounds. Our party had
taken alarm. with number of others.
and had gone down the track to where
the first train to town was stationed.
The crowd got there and damned the.
train instantly. Just opposite the pic
mic ground, and half mile from us,
was a wide platform, uncovered, on
which stood hundreds who were wait,
ing for this train. Let her go, SAM,
said the conductor; mo stop till we,
get to Chicago" Away we went, and,
as we passed the picnic grounds hun
dreds more came down through the.
drenching showers in white dresses
that stuck to their limbs and straw
hats that were being soaked to ruin.
But the train went past regardless OF
their yells, and as it went by the car
windows were raised and the chorus
of the latest song was waited into
their ears:
oh amt dat awful,
Amt dat a shame;
To keep my baby
out in the rain.

CASTRO NEEDS A SPANKING.
French Press Urges Roosevelt To Use
Bio Stick.


Willemstead, May 11.-W. w. Rus
sell, the American minister to Vene-
zuela, sailed from here yesterday on
the steamship Caracas for the United
States.
That there is tension in the diplo-
matte relations between the United
States and Venezuela was shown by
the fact that none Of the Venezuelan
officials was on hand to bid Mr.. Rus
sell good-by.
Paris, May 1.-THE recent ex-
pulsion of eight Frenchmen from
Venezuela has served to increase the
resentment of French public opinion
against President CartrGs arrogant
treatment of foreigners. The Temps
reviewing the situation, expresses
regret that France did not send ships
to lombard Puerto Cabello, instead OF
simply breaking off diplomatic rela-
tions, when M. Taigny, the French
charge de'affaires was expelled from
Venezuela two years ago. 1t de
clared that the time has come to act.
THE United States seems disposed
to begin" says the Temps. "Sena-
tor Cullom declared that Castro need.
ed a good spanking. Never was
there more propitious occasion fol-
President Roosevelt to use the big
stick, and France is perfectly willing
to see him enact the role of peace
maker, Venezuela must be taught a
lesson, and it is immaterial whether
it comes from Washington or else
where providing it comes quickly"

COMPLAINTS ABOUT PAINT.

The time to complain about pain,
70 before the pafinsr applies it. The
man who puts up the money should
not shirk the responsibility OF choos.
Ing the paint. True, the painter
ought to know paint better than the
banker, the professional man or the
merchant. The trouble is, the house.
owner too often deliberately bars the
competent and honest painter from
the job by accepting a bid which he
ought to know would make an honest
job impossible.
Secure your bids on the basis Of
National Lead Company's pure White
Lead and pure Linseed Oil and see
that you get these materials.

Good money is made by the Govern.
