Deer 8lr: This la a plea for a warmer, more comfortable auditor ium for the fourth number of the L>yoleum Course on Monday night. For throe in succession la .fact the tiall has been so cold and uncomfort able at all of the previous entertain ments this year that the women and' In many Instances the men hare had to keep themaelves wrapped up. At th^Scotch Singers one could see ma'a breath. Half of the success of any even ing audience Is the attractive . gowns of a fashionable lot of ladies. but there Is nothing pretty In ugly dark coats and wraps. ' It Is a poor advertisement to. have a cold uncomfortable hall and wheth or you know It or not. has cost yo? mom tickets and will certainly ef fect future subscriptions. I am yours very truly. Mr. J. R. Calloway Ik'ud News wns received in this city to day announcing the death of one 01 Beaufort county's most influential citizens in the person of Mr. Jess* R. Calloway who passed away at his home at Royall this morning between 3 and4 4 o'clock of heart failure. At the time of his death the deceased was in Lis 68th year. He enjoyed the friendship of a large number At one time he represented the cpunty of Beaufort In the general assembly and proved to be a repre sentative of ability. He was the fa ther of Mr. J. H. Calloway, Mrs. W. W, Sattferthwaite and Mrs. Sallie Mayo of thla tills, city. The funeral frill take place sometime tomorrow. The entire community mourns his loss and th- sympathy of the entire county goes out to the bereaved. I think a word to this effect would not hurt In the paper. "\ knew the auditorium was most uncomfortably cold on the evening of Deoember 12 when George Kier nan waa her4. This was partly due to an error on my own part In fall ing to give the Janitor sufficient no tice, but I do not remember to' have heard complaint about the heat at any of the regular Lycetup numuer*. If any one has sufferotr discomfort I do not remember that th^y iiave come to me and suggested that im provements be made. Po'r Monday night I desire to prom Ise that if the heating apparatus is sufficient the auditorium SHALL be comfortably heated. 1 am frank to thank my Informer fpr the Informa tion which she -has given and to say that I did not^now any person . had declined fb purchase tickets for the reason stated. I hope no one will stay away hereafter for that rea son. I regret that my friend did not in form' me earlier in person or%by phone Instead of addressing me an annonymous letter. I -wish to say further that the Jani tor was given Instructions yesterday, Friday, to see that the auditorium is comfortable Monday night, and I am sure he will look after It prop erly.

Peary told the story ot t he trip to the frosen north ?t a hearing to day before the house commit tee on nasal affairs, the purpose being to fnrnlsh proof of his attainment of the North Pole on April ?, 1909. la connection with pending legislation for natlonsl recognition of big ac hievements. He produced all of his original memorandum and answered numerous questions. Cross-examination by Representa tive Macon of Arkansas, who baa an nounced his unalterable opposition to recognition of % the explorer, was deferred on account of the time ta ken la reading data. Tim commit tee adjourned until neat Tuesday. Mr. Maoon asked eapsdal light on "the SO hours Peary was 'at ad pole." and Mr. Peary read from his log book detailing his four hours' sleep. hit journey beyond and hack to the camp. Peary said he made . no entries on this book on his re turn march April1 8, and not until the afternoon of the 9th. Representative. Roberta, of Massa chusetts. suggested to the explorer -that Henry Gannett, president of the National Geographic society, and he thought O. H.

"That," replied Peary. "Is the j. opinion of an expert." Just at the close of the heating Mr. Roberts bunded the ^xplorair a copy of a pamphlet on how Peary . discovered the pole, printed in Wash ington. and headed "By Robert B. I Peary," and asked Peary If he had ever aeen it before. Peary if he had , written It. The significance of this was that when the naval committee j wanted Peary to appear last spring he declined bocause of publishers' rights nnd that this pamphlet th* date of whose publication he could not recall.
