a
United States mail poach, routed
from Raleigh to New York, and
containing $20,000, disappeared
in a manner very similar to a re
cently reported $20,000 theft of a
mail puuch at Lynchburg, Va;,
became known here yesterday,
though it has been impossible to
secure any official statement con
cerning the details of the robbery
It is admitted that the Raleigh
pouch ' disappeared af tier being
receipted for by a mail clerk on
a northbound train passing here
and that postoffice ins;pectors are
working desperately on the case,
though as yet without a tangible
clue.
The story that carrte to light
yesterday iafternoon reveals the
fact that about three Weeks ago
a re^stered pouch;, was sent from
Raleigh to a Nevv York bank.
The pouch was delivered by the
Raleigh postoffice to the ma;il
clerk on train No. 143, and in
turn by him to the postoffice at
Greensboro.'^ The local office in
its turn holds the receipt of the
mail clerk on northbound train
No. 38, and it was after delivery
to him at the local station that
the package disappeared. The
name of this party is withheld
by officials, though it is admitted
that he has been suspended from
the service pending investigation
Jiist where this vailuable pouch
disappeared is not known> though
in view of the similar disappear-
anc3 of a pouch at Lynchburg,
the theory is advanced that the
loss of both can be accounted for
through the same person or par
tieSf It looks like a .shrewd
game has been played and from
the outside it appears>that the
government detectives! ares as
much at sea as;-a^^ others who
are trying to trace the packages.
According to the details gath
ered here the clerk who last sign
ed for the package remembers
seeing it lying on a truck under
the local station shed and was in
fact not aware of its loss until he
reached the end of>his run and
found himfeelf unable -tb iiccpiiht
for it. P6stoffic^ officials n^rede-
clare they have known this clerk;
and the impression is that none
believe he is a party to the theft
It is said his dismissal for the
time is due to carelessness.
In reply to direct questions
officials here yesterday declared
they did not know from whom
or to whom the package was sent
they did not k^now what
postofice inspectors wepe : doing;
or in fact anything, regatding
the matter other than that the
package was handled by this
office and that it later disappear
ed. The ppstoffice inspectors are
even more retibent and appear
annoyed that the fact of the theft
had leaked out.

I In Honor of Honiaav
A most delightful ocrasion was
the reception ^Ven last J^day
night by Miss Jennie Vaughn at
her home to the Philathea Class
of the M. E. Sunday school, in
honor of Miss Dora Homaday, a
member of the class, who was
mairied today. .
The parlor, sitting-room and
dinning room were one gorgeous
blaze of (iolor* thousands of rich
red, yellow and gretin autumn
leaves being used for decorations
Immense banks of potted plants
and vases of cut flowers were al
so used in profusion, The guests
were recei ved by the Class presi
dent and secretary and eiscored
tO the parlor to await the c»ning
of the bride elect As she enter
ed, accompanied by the hostess,
to the strains of the ‘ 'Bridal
Chorus” every guest rose to'greet
her and gave her a hearty wel
come.
A delightful program was ren
dered by the members, the vocal
solos of Mrs* W. A. Garter, the
recitations of Misses HOrhada^
and Story and the deUghtftil
speech of the ti^cher, Mr. E. S,
W. Dameron, deserving espwiaV
mention. After thijs Mr. Pame-
ron presented to the honored a
handsome cut-glass comport, a
slight token of the love of the en
tire class for her. She accepted
it in a few happy woi*ds.
The invitation to the dinning-
room was the next engrossing
feature. The table v^as a drieana
of beauty. -Much ni^riment was
provoked by the menus, which
contained such baffling dishes as
“Group of Islands,’^ “Hidden
Tears,” “Sidewalk Shippers,-
“Old Maid’s Comfort” ->«t^.
All turned out to be something
delightful and the supper was
very much enjoyed.

“Teddy’s” ObitnaiT.
Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Hawks of

of Ipssing their famous dog “Ted

her death as a result of being

life had been threatened.
She was Mrs. Hawkes protec

to show how she was loved for
her obedience and faithfulness to

Notice to
*^ere is nothing in the moral,
spiritual ojr iphyj^ical universie that
makes marriage respectable, but
love. Without it there can be no
marriage, only a wretched miser
able form, that rapidly degen
erates into a loathsome, demor*
alizing burden. The time to
marry is when love demands it
and not simply because the kitch
en needs a cook, the dining table
a figure head in muslin or silk^
the cucumber vines somebody to
kill the bugs on them. The one
to marry is the woman you love,
and no other one. That, and that
alone should decide. Riches may
take wings and flee away; beauty
may fade; good health is a very
excellent and desirable thing in
man or woman, but the circum
stances of an hour or a moment
may ruin the best of health. A
man who marries from “marrieil
consideHitions,” usually gets
what he deserves—its full equiv
alent in unhappiness. A man
who marries for beauty, learns
as no other man can learn, how
hideous and loathesome it may
become. So, young man, take love
for your guidance in this matter,
remembering that it demands
the best and noblest in you—that
it is sacred and holy and divine,
for it is of God. — Chap^ Hill
