The following intensely interesting
and pathetic story which was pre-
sumably written by a former Raleigh
newspaper man, now on the editorial
staff Of the Norfolk Pilot
and recently publishedEin that paper,
will be read with interest by many
who are familiar with the circum-
stances detailed:
In OakwOOd cemetery, at Raleigh,
\. e., stands IL monument around
which fingers IL romance that links
together Pennsylvania and North
Carolina, Philadelphia and Raleigh,
Ang glO-SaxOn and Cherokee Indian.
Some years ago William Sloan, an
architect from Philadelphia, went to
Raleigh to design various public
buildings, and with him went as Il
young man Albert q. Bauer, one OF
his draughtsmen. At the same time
| there was at the Oxford Orphanage
"a Cherokee Indian girl, little Rachel,
whose Cherokee name was "Unka"
which means the White Bear. She
had lost her mother at q very early
age, and her father, who was prOmi-
nent i'll his section as a Mason, died
while she was quite young. She was
taken under the protecting wing OF
the MasOns and sent to their orphan.
age, where she was carefully trained
and later went to Raleigh, as private
secretary to one of the leading Ma
Sons i'll the State When she and
Bauer met they fell i'll love, and
neither being aware that the State
law fOrbids the intermarriage OF
Cherokees and whites they were mar.
ried.
Immediately they went to Philadel
phia on their honeymoon and remain
ed there for some time. They were
on the point of returning to the State
when they discovered that they had
unwittingly violated the law and they
decided to remain in Philadelphia
| until some sort of an arrangement
was effected The numerous friends
took immediate steps to secure the
passage of a special act legalizing
their marriage. This was done unan.
imously and soon after they return
ed to Raleigh and made their home
They prospered and surely no peo-
pie were ever happier, but in a few
years maternity came, with fatal re.
suits, and then the sorrowing hus,
band laid mother and babe in their
last sleep on one of the slopes of the
cemetery, in a most picturesque spot
with stately oaks and graceful mag
nolia standing near. Over the grave
of the woman he had idolized he
raised a monument ofhis own design.

This was at once the work and the
gift of Philadelphia friend of Bauer
himself an artist of much ability
Within the pillared portico of this
stately structure, in the doorway
there is the photograph on porcelain
of Bauer's lost love, the Cherokee
bride.

One Of the most distinct honors
that has come to North Carolina in
recent years is the election of Hon.
James Y. Joyner. our able Superir-
tendent OF Public Instruction, IA
President OF the National Education
Association. The Association met in
Denver, Colorado, last week. and the
election OF Superintendent Joyner is
regarded By his supporters az "A vic

lation OF the prices OF school text

this high honor is q national recog.

At the foot of the grave, also in
golden letters, deeply cut in white
marble, are these words:
"The only amaranthine flower on
earth is virtue; the only lasting treas
ure truth.
Upon q golden plate beneath the
photograph OF Mrs. Bauer, which is
set in the snowy marble and as dis
tinct as if it were made yesterday, is
tablet of gold on which is engraved
in graceful script these lines from the
once SO popular song, Juanita:
In the dark eyes splendor.
Where the warm light used to dwell
Weary looks, vet tender
Speak their last farewell.
After this Bauer prospered and he
was in request far and near, but one
Sunday morning, not responding to
q knock on his bedroom door, it was
| forced, and there in his well-ordered
room, lying in his bed undressed, in
his left hand IA portrait of his dead
bride and in his right revolver, he
lay in his last sleep. Death had
come many hours before, in the earl
lest watches of the night. There was
merely line to say that he wished
no longer to live and that death had
no terrors for him, but only charm.
Loving hands bore the body to
Oakwood and a grave was made in a
place he had specifically reserved and
there beside his lost love he was bu-
ried away until the "Great Awaken
ing" On each anniversary OF the
birthday and of the deathday OF the
Indian bride tender hands lay upon
her grave and his the flowers she so
loved-hyacinths.

Mr.. James P. Cook, Chairman Of
the board of trustees Of the Jackson
Training School, authorizes the an
nOuncement that a prominent citizen
of the State and his wife, whose names
are withheld for the present, on yes
terday donated to the institution the
funds necessary to erect Industrial
Hall, which is now being built there.
The wife of this citizen was in Con-
cord not long since attending a con-
vention, and while here was shown
over the Training School. She was
greatly impressed with the great work
there begun and its great needs and
possibilities When she returned home
she talked with her husband about it,
with the result that they agreed to
concentrate their contributions on
these lines and to put their money
into something definite and where it
would do the most good. The needs
of the school as set forth in The Up
lift had much to do with their de-
cisiOn.
The building is to be the work shop
for the Training School, and will cost
$500 and the entire cost will be
borne by the gentleman and his wife
referred to. Work is now going on il
the erection of the building.

WE have published articles to the
same effect before, but it will bear
repetition. The Progressive Farmer
says "there is a strong demand for
graduates from agricultural colleges,
possibly more continuous and urg-
ent demand than for any other class
of graduates. The farmer boy will
make no mistake in arranging to
take an agricultural course. 1t will
be useful to him in getting a tempo
rary position in order to win back
the money expended in his education,
and also useful as long as he lives in
tie cultivation and management OF
his own farm" And not only as
agriculturists but in other pursuits
of life is there demand for young men
who "kuow how"-those who have
taken the textile, electrical, mechani-
cal, chemical and like courses. Grad
yates of the North Carolina Agricul-
tural and Mechanical College have
been notable examples.

GUNS OF GREAT POWER.
II Claims Made for the New I4-inch
Guns Now Being 1ade Prove True,
American Navy Will Excel Others
Powerful Weapons Made OF New
Process Steel for Both Army and

Navy.
Washington, D. c., July 19.-Rear-
Admiral Newton f. Mason. chief of
ordnance of the navy, will expend
$4,000 on the naval proving
grounds at Indian Head to fit them
for testing the 14inch guns now be-
ing made at the Washington Navy
Yard.
Should the navy adopt these guns
the Dreadnaughts now building will
have "A far heavier armament than
their British rivals. Ten 14-inch guns,
all mounted on the centre line OF n
battleship, would make the most for
midable battery ever fioated.
The army, too, is experimenting
with 14-inch guns. The army guns
are of two types, the ordinary cast
steel type and wire wound.
The steel for these guns has been
put through a new and secret pro-
cess, the discovery of a naval officer,
that will give it a hardness never be-
fore equalled. With the new process,
in the words of one naval officer, who
is in close touch with the work, 1.-THE
Krupp steel will look like iron by
comparison.
