Hatfield feud in Kentucky and

bullets that have begun to fly be-

I'm going far away from Ken

said wistfully.
The reason that 1 am leaving
my native state is that the
feud which we thought was over
years ago, when most of the Hat
fields and most of the McCoys had
been killed by each other, is that

Wednesday afternoon at five
O'Clock at Mt. Andrew Church,
one of the most beautiful weddings
of the season took place, when
Miss Sallie Willis Highfll, plight
ed her troth to Mr.. E. Roland Rob-
erts.
The Church was never more
beautiful, it having been darken-
ed and lighted by candles. The
decorations were ivey and golden
rod, banked with ferns and palms.
The ushers, Messrs. F. M. Page
and J. H. Stackhouse, marched
slowly down the aisles and took
their positions.
Under the arch H, first came
Rev. w. B. Baker followed by
Mrs. Jas. Berry. who gracefully
presided at the piano. At the
first note of Mendelssohn' We'd
ding March entered the four lit
tie ribbon bearers; Misses Evelyn
Berry, Bessie Stackhouse. Thel-
ma Hayes and Bessie Afford. each
dressed in white and bearing
white ribbon up the different
aisles, followed by the attendants
in the following order:
Miss Dora Page and Mr.. Carl
Bass, Latta; Miss Alvenia
Guthrie, of Burlington, N. c.,
and Mr.. J. Martin Hayes of
Pages Mills; Miss Winnie Moore
and Mr.. lie Grande Smith, of
Latta; Miss Ethel Roberts and
Mr.. Couser Afford; Miss Viola
Afford and Mr.. Hal Moore.
The bridesmaids were dressed
in dainty white batiste dresses and
wore short wells held with golden
rod and carried bouquets of roses,
golden-rod and ferns. The
groomsmen wore the conventional
black with white gloves. Then
came the flower girls, little Mis-
ses Agnes Stackhouse aud Pene-
lope Berry, followed by the bride
leaning on the arm of the dame of
honor, Mrs. Ida Whyte of Green's
boro, N. c., who was dressed in
white batiste trimmed In baby
Irish. The charming little bride
never looked lovelier than she did
in her soft white bridal robe of
messaline with duchesse lace and
veil with lilies of the valley and
carried a shower bouquet of
BRIDES roses and forgetmenots.
Her only ornament was a beauti-
full pearl brooch, the gift of the
groom. She was met at the altar
by the groom, leaning on the arm
of the best man, Mr.. Marvin Rob-
erts of Columbia. Mr.. Baker in
his usual effective manner spoke
the mystic words of the impressive
ceremony of the Methodist Church,
and thus united the hearts and
lives of these two popular young
people. After the ceremony the
bridal party retired from h e
Church under the arch "R" and
drove to the home of the groom S
father, Mr.. Giles Roberts, where
dainty refreshments in two courses
were attractively served.

question. Messrs. Tatsukawa and

changes was accepted.

SUNDAY NIGHT MUSINGS.
BY [. T. RAwALT.

Anent the article in last weeks
NEWSPAPER regarding caring for
labor to handle the fruit this year
we are more than glad to this
week print the fact that our grow
ers are arranging in determined
manner to care for their help
properly. THIS is all that is re-
quired to secure an ample supply
of good clean. white help. and it
is a qualification to learn that our
big growers are awake to the ne
cessity. The firm of Moutray
& Garviu. lessees of the great
Chinn orchards. are now srrang-
ing for board and lodging on the
ranch for every man and woman
whom they will require. They
will pay the going wages and fur
nish board at cost. And. they
will employ white labor. w. T.
Dorrance. Randolph Williamson
and A. l. Goess. proprie,ors of
the large German mesa orchards
are also arranging for ample ae-
eommodations for their help. the
price being based absolutely
upon the cost. All the associ-
aiions are doing likewise and at
this writing we feel justified in
saying that Paonia will have
plenty OF help because they de-
serve TO have and because they
have prepared to give their help
ample and comfortable accommo
dations at the minimum OF cost.
The Excelsior Orchard Company
is another combination that has
arranged ample accomoditions
for their help. They too will fur
nish board at cost and end avor
TO make things so satisfactory
that no complaint will come from
their help. In fact If we had time
We doubt not that We would
find that the rule is general in
this end OF the valley to prop
erly care for the help needed.
Railroad rates are being arranged
for at reasonable prices and next
week we will announce the same.
Paonia needs 1000 extra men and
women to handle the fruit and we
prophesy right here that they will
be obtained and that they will be
all white. No yellow niggers
will be imported into the real
North Fork. These remarks are
inspired by the following two ar.
ticles clipped from Hotchkiss
papers of last week. Each is fol-
lowed by its proper credit.
II. Hokasono and N. Tatsukawa,
OF Denver, two Japanese contractors
were here this wetk and made con-
tracts with the fruit growers to
bring In Japanese to handle the fruit

400 Japs will he here. They are to be
paid at the rate Of twenty-five cents

GUS work from the 9th day of Sep

The Weary at Rest.

On Sunday evening at 700
O'Clock, in the city of Denver,
Rev. w. G. Hawkins passed to
his eternal rest The deceased
was well known to great many
Paonia people, his home having
been with his son. {. c. Hawkins
for the past six years. He was in
his S7th year and had been very
feeble for two years back.
Early in May he was taken to
Denver for hospital treatment in
the hope that skilled nurses
might be able to help hun regain
his fast failing health, but the
machinery was all but run down.
and no improvement was posi-
BILE. There was no organic dis
ease. The life was spent and in
peace and without fear a grand
old man stepped calmly across
the dividing line between the
known and the unknown.
Funeral services were held IN
Denver and then the remains were
taken to his old Nebraska home
in Beatrice where his wife and
one son are buried. The inter
ment took place there on Wednes-
day Rev. Hawkins was sup
posed to be the oldest Episco-
palian minister in the United
States. and retained his mental
vigor to the last.
Mr. Hawkins was the father OF
seven children. FIVE of whom sur
vive him c c. and J. d Haw-
kins. OF Paonia. one son who lives
in Florida. and a daughter in
Denver. and another in Ft. Nor
gan. are the living and one son is
buried in Washington and the
other lies by his fathers side in
Beatrice. c c. Hawkins received
the word Saturday that his father
was sinking and at once lett for
Denver arriving too late to see
him alive. He accompanied the
remains to Beatrice and attended
the funeral. He is expected home
Sunday.
Truly it may be said of Rev.
Hawkins that he was full of years.
His work was all accomplished
and he leaves a record of excep-
tional rectitude behind him. Sell
dom have we met SO sweet temp
cred a man. He was as bright
and cheerful at all times as could
he imagine and 1t was genuine
pleasure to talk to him. And he
was up to- date, keeping posted
by reading, on the affairs of the
world in a fashion that beats the
average man.
If more men could pass out OF
life with life's work so we'll done
the world would be much better.
The relatives will have the SYM
pathy of all their friends, partic-
ularly those who knew the good
old man, and he will be missed.
sadly missed. even though we all
realize that he was spared far be-
yond the average time.
