The steamlitters are making good progress at the Holly Inn, and have com pleted their work on the third lloor. The school house is finished on the outside, plastered within, and is about ready for the line linish. It is painted red. Contractor Hightower h is started in to "paint the town red," or at least a part of it, and "The Beacon' shows up linely in its new dress. To the courtesy of Sihiutinntli, the bright official organ of the Seaboard Air Line, we are indebted for the picture of "Pinehurst Nursery" on our first page. It is rumored that a colored man named Marshall, who resides outside the village, lost a trunk one night this week, which he and his friends found in the woods the next day. On our lirst page we present to our readers this week a well-written illus trated article on the Pinehurst nursery, Iroin the pen of Mr. Otto Katenstein, superintendent of the nursery. Preaching service was held at the Culdee church yesterday tit 11 o'clock a. in., conducted by the pastor. The meetings will be continued during the week and Sunday at the same hour. Uncle Jacob, the venerable dispenser of lacteal fluid in our village, makes the following lament : "1 'spotted I wuz some one, in Pinehurst, An' tort I wuz 'speeterble, too; Hut t eawn't tine uy name in do Outlook, An' I'se read de hul paper l'roo." Mrs. A. E. ITpham has removed from the Pine (J rove house to the Casino, where she will he in charge during the season. Mr. Louis Letien, foreman of streets, h is recently received from Ids brother at Aberdeen, a pair of wooden shoes such as are commonly worn by the peasants in Europe. The shoes are lighter than one would expect and will wear for one or two months. They are quite a curios ity and will be placed in the village museum. Last Friday Sheriff Jones visited this township to collect the taxes for the cur rent year. We believe he met with good success, which is not surprising, in view of the fact th.it by l.iw all delinquent tax payers are liable to line or imprisonment. The tax rate for the current year is $7.20 on each thousand dollars worth. of prop erty, and 2.15 on each poll. The Pine Pidge white school, known as school district No. 71, is open for the yearly term of four months, with Mr. Alexander McDonald as teacher. This district contains seventy-live children of school age, which is quite a large number of scholars for one teacher, but Mr. McDon.ild is a young man of much prom ise and ability, and will no doubt give a good account of himself and the school. A very interesting session of the Pine Uidge Sunday school was held last Sab bath. The services were under the direc tion of the superintendent, Mr. M. A. McDonald, and a very instructive address on Sunday school work was made by Alexander McDon.ild. lie told in a very clear manner the duties of parents, teach ers and schol irs in their relation to the Sunday school, and no doubt his talk will have the effect to increase the attendance and interest, and result in much good to the school. Last Wednesday afternoon wc appre ciated the disadvantage of occupying te.nporary quarters in a new building. In clearing out the debris in the upper story the workmen probably forgot that a window in the editorial sanctum was directly beneath, and in expediting the exit of a wooden horse contrived to so guide it that it drove clear through the window, taking sash as well as glass and scattering the fragments all over the sanctum. Luckily this all happened in the absence of the editor, and we there fore live to tell the tale, and not only receive light but also breathe clear ozone through the window. Dr. IJenbow of (Jreensboro, N. C, formerly proprietor of the famous com mercial hotel, the IJenbow House, at (jlreensboro, but more recently of the Everett House, Jacksonville, Fla., has been in Pinehurst for the past few days. Dr. IJenbow is one of the best known men in North Carolina. He has long been connected with the most prominent enterprises for the development of the state, giving his time and money to the upbuilding of the middle section of North Carolina in and around Greensboro. The doeter has traveled much, is a close observer, and thinks North Caro lina is the choice spot 011 this green earth. He says it is the only state in the Union that has tilled every blank sent out from the Agricultural Department at Wash ington with inquiries as to crops and products. Coming to Town. i" rl-. 'Vf.
