Audience Was Pleased.

The dramatized version OF Mrs.
Augusta J. Evans popular novel,
"Beulah," )" as presented at the:.Grand
Theatre Monday night, pleased the
fairly representative audience that
witnessed the performance. The play
is not Of the rollicking sort and while
there are some amusing situations
there is not much comedy about it,
and in this it does not measure up to
the demands of a certain class of
theatre goers. "Beulah" is more of
a talking play than an acting play,
and strenuous effort is required on
the part of the different characters
to make good. But this the very
capable company sent out by The
Bernard Amusement pany,
headed by Miss Janet Waldorf por
traying in the title role, and Mr.. Ed
ward Finley. the leading male charac-
ter as DR.. Guy Hartwell, with Miss
Marie B. Collins as Mrs. Chiffon,

NEW MODERN HOTEL.
Latest and MostImportantM Movement
Started-Henderson to Have Up-to-
date Hotel in Near Future-Work
Begun and Will be Pushed to Early
Completion.

Henderson is to have new modern
hotel in the near future
Work has already been started and
the new structure will be pushed to
an early completion.
For sometime the subject of a new
hotel in Henderson has been agitated.
Public meetings have been held and
the question thoroughly discussed
from time to time.
Finally definite action was taken,
leading citizens and business men
subscribed to the capital stock of
such an enterprise-and the thing
assumed tangible form.
When this stage was reached it
was an easy matter to bring things
to head. The result is that Hen
derson is to have a new and modern
hotel, up-to-date in all its appoint
ments.
Capt. C. L. Whitted, proprietor 81
the hotel at Norlina. will conduct the
new hotel. Capt. Whitted Is an ex-
perienced and successful hotel man
and his wife strong ally and valu-
able aida combination that has
made good in the business. wherever
they have been. Capt Whitted sue.
ceeded Mr. Gresham in the manage
ment OF the hotel at Norlina and is
well known to the travelling public.
The new hotel will be three stories
high and have frontage of a little
over 100 feet on William street. It
is to be built of red brick at a cost
OF $4,000 exclusive OF furnishing
There will be Al sleeping rooms, "a
OF this number with private baths.
The building will contain about so
rooms in all including office, lobby,
sample room, palors, billiard room,
&c. There will be two public baths
and toilets on each floor.
The town, or rather public spirited
citizens among private individuals
of the town, subscribed two-thirds
OF the amount ($2O,OOO) and Mr..
Lee Paschall and Capt. Whitted sub
scribed one-third ($1O,O0O) and un-
dertake the building and furnishing
of the house. The arrangement as
to the financial part is satisfactory
to all interests concerned, and it Is
not necessary to go into details
about this. Suffice it to say that
the new hotel is an assured thing
and a long felt want in Henderson
will soon be supplied.
The new hotel will be built on the
site of the old residence formerly
owned by the Seaboard Air Line
Railway Company on the corner lust
across the street from the passenger
station, adjoining the Massenburg
Hotel.

Pretty Things Galore.

The opening display of fall and
winter goods at Watkins store yes

the exhibition of new goods this sea-
son one OF the finest they have ever

noted for pretty and up-to-date
things in mems and women's wear.
In the line of dress goods, trimmings,
silks, laces, notions, ladies tailor
made coat suits, cloaks, skirts, capes,
waists, furs, shoes and furnishings
OF all kinds nothing seems to be lack
ing in the department set apart for

Personal.

1t was a real pleasure to have with
us for several days during the past
week DR.. William Laurie Hill, editor
of Our Fatherless Ones, the very
creditible little paper published under
the auspices of the Barium Springs
(Presbyterian) Orphanage. He was
here in the interest of the institution
and if his success was proportionate
to the merits of the cause he repre-
sents nothing more could be desired.
DR.. Hill is delightful personality, a
little advanced in years, but youth
ful in spirit, and as full of optimism
and sentiment as a sixteen-y7af-old
girl. He is good company and one
cannot have the blues when he is
around. We had known DR.. Hill be-
fore and when he was elected editor
of Our Fatherless Ones we felt that a
wise selection had been made. The
paper shows decided improvement
under his directing hand. 1t is neat
ly printed and we'll gotten up and
though small in size (six columns,
four pages) it is big in contents and
we'll worth the subscription price OF
one dollar, if the dollar did not go
any further than paying for the paper.
But every dollar so invested plays a
part in supporting some orphan boy
or girl-building character and con-
tributing to the States assets in
good citizenship.
DR.. Hill spoke at the Presbyterian
church Sunday morning andpresent-
ed the cause OF the Orphanage. He
was listened to with interest and we
are sure the Presbyterians of Hender-
son will respond literally to the ef-
forts being made to wipe out the
debt under which the management is
laboring and do a bigger part toward
the support of this institution in the
future.

Another Candidate.

In mentioning the candidacy OF Mr..
Simpson Dean for coroner last week,
we stated that he was the only man
who wanted the office In this we
were partly right and partly wrong.
No other candidate had 'come out"
for it but we have learned that Mr..
d. W. Hardee is receptive-that is he
is willing to serve again if the people
want him. Mr.. Hardee is the incum-
bent of that office having been elected
at the last election. He is the only
man who has ever qualified as coro-
ner we believe, although others have
been elected. When he was elected
Mr.. Hardee said.he thought he ought
at least to show his appreciation by
accepting and qualifying, which he
did His administration of the office
has been very much complimented
his handling of one case being COM
pared to the Supreme court.
