carried pink carnations.
The entire lower floor was decorated
with potted plants and wealth of
pink carnations and pink peonies,
while the second floor was beautiful in
white roses and smilaX.
For the entertainment of the guests
six tables had been arranged for differ
ent and novel "heart-games"-the top
of each table being covered with a
large pink heart. The score cards
were hand painted hearts, bearing de-
signs of cupids, carrying green slippers
filled with pink roses to dainty brides.
These were tied with pink ribbon
rosettes and as the players progressed,
each was presented with a small gill
heart. Miss Elizabeth Stokely proved
most fortunate and received for her
skill, a handsome heart-shaped cut
glass bon bon dish.
AT the conclusion of the games, 6

Rey. MIR. CadMelps Work.

J. M. B. in A. R. Presbyterian, 14th.
Rev. Ira S. Caldwell has just closed
weeks meeting at Huntersville. The
building was comfortably full or
crowded at every one of the sixteen
services and on the last night about
fifty were unable to get inside. The
sermons were directed principally to
the protesting Christian and were In
tensely practical. Bro. Caldwell is so
plain and his preaching is so thorough
ly permeated with every day life and
incidents of human interest that he
holds the attention of every one to the
very last. Our people are interested
in their spiritual welfare and in the
unsaved as they have not been for
some time. We have already had five
professions and look for a number OF
others. Four infants were baptized.
Our people will follow Bro. Caldwell
in his work with their interest and
with their prayers. He goes from here
to White Oak, Ga.

GEN LEE AND THE APPLE TREE.
Col Henery Z. Young Gives Account
of MOmentOus Event.

To the Editor of The Sunday News;
Two articles have appeared in your
paper recently, purporting to give an
account of Lees surrender and the
"apple tree
There are few errors in them,
which might as we'll be corrected,
even though they are of small i'm
portance.
On the morning of the 9th of April
Lee went, with Col. Taylor, to the end
of his lines looking towards Rich
mond to meet Gen. Grant. There he re-
ceived a message from Gen. Grant that

The governor dared Judge Jones to

Strait and Magistrate Caskey that the
COPY of the Lancaster News contain
inc the Grace slush" was stolen out
of the office He said the papers were
handed him in the presence Of DR..
Strait and Mr.. Caskey."
In regard to the sentence as to Till
mans attitude, quoted above, the News
and Courier correspondent gives some
what fuller report of the governors re-
marks, as follows:
The governor expressed special
desire that the newspapers publish this
as uttered by him:
Clones and his crowd are trying to
take safety pin and pin Jones onto
Tillman's coat tail"
Refers to Tillmans
"Edgefeld has got a man in the race
for United State senator who has
served you as senator and as superin-
tendent of the penitentiary for years
and in congress. He mas done much for
South Carolina. Laurens county has
a young man in the race who is honest
and high-toned and worthy of any
trust that may be imposed on him.
Why do the Jones people try SO hard
to hang Jones onto Ben Tillman? He
has his own race to run. If they had
the proper respect for themselves and
Ben Tillman they would not try to
bring him in.
81 don't need Tillmans endorse
ment," declared Governor Blease, with
increasing vigor. 81 have proven in
the last nineteen months I'm as we'll
qualified to be, governor as Tillman or
anybody else"
The governor further declared it was
stated that Wade Hampton was de-
feated because he interfered in fam
lily fight and they're trying their best
to get Tillman in family fight now,
but can't do it,

To the Voters of Newberry County:
At the solicitation of many friends ]
have concluded to make the race for
supervisor, and If elected I will stay
on the job and work for the best in
terest of the county and will give You
the best service that I am capable OF;
and l Hereby pledge myself to abide
the result of the Democratic primary.

Portion of address Issued by n. B.
Dial Candidate for e. S. Senate.

Dial Candidate for U. S. Senate.
To the Democratic Voters of South
Carolina:
l have not criticised Or said any
thing unkind about either of my \op-
ponents. However, they are both old
men, and Edgefeld county has held
the senatorship for thirty years. Sen
ator Tillman has been an exceedingly
able man, and has attracted a great
deal of attention. He has had all the
honor we can possibly bestow upon a
Southern man, having been In office
twenty-five years. Therefore, l think
he is making a mistake to ask the peo-
Iple to re-elect him to a six-year term.
l am not asking him to resign, or run
ming against his term of Office, but am
asking the people to elect me to sue
ceed him. He says his health is too
feeble to allow him to make any
speeches; he has not been to single
meeting. If he is too feeble to make
some speeches, his health must be too
weak to discharge the duties OF the
office In the nature of things there
can not be a substitute in a legislative
body. If the Senator is i'll, his seat is
vacant. You can appoint an agent in
nearly any other business in the world.
1t would not do to say that he can
pair; we do not send men to the SEN
ate to pair, Besides this is only a
temporary device. We expect to elect
"a Democratic president, in which
event the work devolving upon the
senators will be very great, such as
having appointed new postmasters,
revenue officers, consuls, etc. Besides,
we want constructive legislation. 1t
is more important to have two sena-
tors now than it has been since 1860
No doubt, Senator Tillman has great
influence with the departments, but
the heads of these departments will be
changed if Wilson is elected, and
younger men appointed. The senator
taught US for twenty-odd years that a
man should be strong, otherwise he
should not ask for public Office. Sup
pose the best man you can think of,
whose health is in the condition of
Senator Tillmans, desired election to
any Office, how many votes do you sup
pose he would receive?
l do not claim ito be the best man
in the State for this Office, but have
made success in. a modest way, and
do know the requirements Of all of
our people. l believe and know that
l can be of service to them, and would
Appreciate your suffrage and influence.

he would meet him as soon as possible
at the other end of the line, but that
he was on the march, and was sure
that this would be earlier than to re-
turn, and that he would notify Gen.
Lee as soon as he was in reach. Con
seuuently Gen. Lee returned to the
other end of his line and there a
waited Gen. Grant.
The day was comparatively warm,
and though only the 9th of April, and
shade trees had hardly put out their
foliage. the shade of the celebrated ap
ple tree was pleasant However, it
was damp, and the staff spread their
water proof coats under the apple
tree, and Gen. Lee took his seat there.
AS soon as this was seen an owner
of a neighboring house came out and
insisted on Gen. Lee taking a more
comfortable seat in his house, near by.
There Gen. Lee was sitting when Gen.
Babcock came with the message from
Gen. Grant asking Gen. Lee to meet
him at AppomattoX court house. Gen.
Grant then occupied the house of Mr..
Mclean. AS Gen. Lee came up, Gen.
Grant stepped out of the house and,
offering his hand to Gen Lee, apologize
ed for having no sword on, as it was
several miles behind in his wagon.
This, of course, did away with any
necessity that Gen. Lee should tender
his sword, and there was no tender of
lit. How easy it would have been for
Gen. Grant to borrow, the sword OF
one of his staff had he desired a tender
by Gen. Lee.
Gen. Lee and Col. Marshall, the only
staff officer who accompanied him,
were invited and went into Mr.. Nc
Leans house. Here, general and
pleasant conversation took place,
which Gen. Grant, as he himself tells
us, led into various subjects, divergent
from the immediate purpose of the
meeting, talking of old army matters
and companions and recollecuons with
Gen. Lee. wide Longs Memoirs"
1t was here at Mr.. McLean's house,
upon a small table, the articles OF sur
render were reduced to writing, with
Col. Marshall acting as secretary,
though several of Gen. Grants statf
we're also present; in fact, all were
present, and were presented to Gen.
Lee and Col. Marshall, and had a short
conversation before they proceeded to
business.
This ended, Gen. Lee returned to his
army, to be- met by his men in tears
at the surrender. Gen. Lees short ad-
dress to them is we'll known, and it is
useless to repeat it here.
Several members of the Army OF
Northern Virginia have recently pur-
ported to give accounts of the surren-
der. but there are slight errors in these
accounts.
There was no surrender under the
celebrated apple tree, nor did Gen. Lee
remain there more than a few minutes,
awaiting the message from Gen. Grant,
before he was invited to enter the
house, of which | have spoken. do
not remember the name OF the owner
Iof the house. II. r. Young.
