Travelling 5645 miles to meet his

several thousand miles. from London

Noel DEER, who is an expert at the

class as a tennis player, departed from
Honolulu some weeks ago for the
mainland without imparting the pur-
pose of his trip. Some days later a
brief dispatch from New York an
nounced his marriage, to the surprise
of his friends. ~
The fact that a distance of 5000
miles failed to keep the two lovers
apart suggested real romance to
the astute newsgatherers of New York
and resulted in the following inter
view with Mr. DEER appearing in one
of the Manhattan papers:

CHARM OF CHARLESTON.
A City Where Every House Faces To-

A City Where Every House Faces To.
 ward the Sea.
 Every house in Charleston faces sea ward. It frequently happens that the streets do not adjust themselves to this disposition of the house plan. in which case the street line Is calmly disre- garded and the house is built so that 1t shall square with the four points Of the compass. The result of this Is curious and most interesting. at times disconcerting, but frequently as pleas Ing as one of Whistler's audacious and unexpected color schemes.
 As in the mansions of old Virginia. the general form of the Charleston houses is very simple, and they depend for their beauty upon the fine balance and spacing of doors and windows, the character of the cornice and. above all. upon the dignifled beauty and classic porticoes and galleries which adorn one side of each structure.
 But Charleston has another and quite unique architectural feature in the arched and ornate walls of moss grown brick which close in all of the fine residences and the highly decorative wrought iron gateways which give ac- cess to the private grounds. In city which was at one time the port of call of all the pirates of the Spanish maln-where one day 1t was found ad- visable to bury forty of these worthies under the sea wall of the city. where half civilized negroes formed always an overwhelming majority of the popu- lation. 1t was the part of common prudence to erect strong barrier be. tween the streets and the private de- mesnes of the better class residents. Out of this necessity grew the infinite number of gates and grillages of twisted iron which are the chief pride of Charleston today and whose only rivals are the far famed gates Of Seville. These marvels of wrought and beaten iron were all the work of local smiths. was told that no two gates of the city were of similar de- sign. and certainly saw no single ex- ample which was not in itself beau tiful.

MEN OF STONE.
Queer Figures Dot the Crest of tho
 Superetitious Mountains.

Among the natural wonders of the southwestern portion of this country are the Superstitious mountains, which loom up from the arid desert to the east of the Salt river valley.
 These mountains are so curious that the Indians will have nothing to do with them. In consequence they are full of deer. bear and other big game. The Superstitious mountains rise out of the level surface of the desert like the pyramids of Egypt.
 On the crest of this unique range and in full view of the raretied atmosphere for an immense distance from the plain are hundreds of queer figures, repre-. senting men in all attitudes. When you look first you are sure they are men. and when you turn your gaze again to them you are as absolutely certain of it as you can be of anything.
 They represent ball throwers. out looks. mere viewers of the country rounda bout, men recumbent and con temparive. others starting foot race and in every conceivable posture and position. They are not real flesh and blood men. however-nothing but stone syenite-yet nothing can convince the Indians that they are not genuine. They say they are real mortals turned to stone. petrified by the peculiar con. dition of the air in the mountains.
 This belief has grown out of an Apache legend. handed down for hun dreds of years. They have it that an ancient chief who had learned of the curious character of the Expectations mountains forbade any of his people to go there. A large band. however. one day discovered q way to get in by precipitous route and finally reached the top. It resulted as the chief had said. and they never got down alive St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
