male troubles ; that they are a

(Wednesday) afternoon at
"Cherry Fields," on Upper

mother, Mrs. W. C. Hender
son. Rev. Walter Hughson,
rector of Grace Episcopal
church, Morganton, per
formed the ceremony that
blended the lives of these pop
ular young people. The wed
ding was quiet, only a few
friends outside of the imme
diate family being present.
The happy pair will make
their home at the Edmonson
homestead, on the" Catawba
river. The News-Herald,
in common with a host of
other friends, extends con
gratulations and very best
wishes.
A Handsome Donation.
As has been stated in these
columns, theladies' aid society
of the Morganton Methodist
church will furnish the seats
for the handsome new church
now in courseof erection here.
The fund for this purpose will
be raised in various ways, and
it goes without saying that
these ladies will have- tne
money for the seats when the
edifice is ready for them. Al
ready the fund is begining to
grow. Mrs. T. G. Cobb, a
member of the society, re
ceived last Saturday a-New
York draft for $25.00 from Mr.
W. J. KincaH, of Griffin, Ga.,
to be added to this fund.
This donation is highly ap
preciated, not only by these
ladies but by the whole church,
and the town in general, and
is proof that Mr. Kincaid is
not unmindful of the home of
his youth and young-manhood
and that his heart is with the
people of his native town in
their efforts for good.
A Fire Alarm Yesterday Morning.
An alarm of fire was given
yesterday morning about half
past nine o'clock and there
was much . excitement on the
streets for a little while in
consequence. Fire was dis
covered in the garret of the
residence of Mr. T. L. Hertp
hill, on West Union street,
and for awhile it seemed that
a destructive conflagration
was inevitable. The fire bad
gained considerable headway,
but by quick, hard work was
extinguished. Not much
damage was done beyond I the
burning of a good-sized role
in the roof. Many of ;the
contents of the house were
removed to the street during
the excitement. There are
several frame buildings near
the Hemphill home which
would have been in great (dan
ger had this dwelling burned.
The cause of the fire is' un
known, but it is supposed to
have originated from a spark
from the chimney. The dwell
ing is owned by Mr. F. M.'
Scroggs.

day evening last was a success. The

rather than by competitive examina
tions. Many visitors were present,
