They also1 furnlsbea music during the afternoon, and while the dinner was In progress. Everybody was delighted with the hotel. It is charmingly situated and is the best apportioned establisn- merrt on the south Atlantic coast, we have heretofore mentioned the dimen sions of the building, and it Is only necessary now to mention some of its features. It Is located on the most elligible part Of the "beach, with its beach front looking out -upon the heav ing blue ocean that dashes its surf al most to the edge of the broad piazzas of the hotel. The sound front faces Wrightsville sound, with the banks channel in a stone's throw, giving an enchanting view of the thousands of sound channels that thread their way among the green islands of marsh grass. The channel to Wrightsville is directly in front of the hotel, and during these beautiful high June tides there Is a solid sheet of water a mile and a half across to Wrightsville. The Wilmington Seaeoast railroad; runs a few feet from the door on the- sound front with a platform from the railroad to the hotel, and ten regular trains a day, besides special and excursion trains, roll by with their great crowds of beach goers. . , Nearly a third of a mile of broad piazzas extend clear around the hotel, and with hundreds of big arm rocking chairs at the convenience of the guests, the spot is an ideal one for watching the romping breakers, enjoying the glo rious breezes, and listening to the sol acing, never ceasing roar of old ocean. The office is in a spacious rotunda that opens on both the ocean and sound sides, and airy halls run through the house both ways. There is a neat la jdies waiting room to the south of the rotunda, and in it Is an open fire place that gives it a cozy, home-like appear ance. Up the hall to the north of the rotunda Is an elegant, dining room 42 feet wide and 104 feet long. Scores of windows open the dining room up to a magnificent view of the ocean and it can be truly said that there 1 no dining room to equal it on the Atlantic coast. Mr. Campbell has made a special fea ture of fine silverware and linens, and the appointments of the dining room are superior in every respect. On the 6 econd floor, there are halls running both ways, with spacious re cesses where the guests can gather in a . sociable way. There is 'also a large balcony in front of the second story, Where the guests can sit and watch the bathers disporting themselves in the surf. There are also broad halls, on the third floor, and all three floors are equipped with the most modern improvements. There ai-eT delightful rooms on all three floorsand two hun dred guests can be comfortably taken care of. The hotel Is fitted with electric -bells throughout, and all the floors are sup plied with wholesome fresh water from the artesian well on the ham mocks. The kitchen, saloon, barber shop and other conveniences make a complete modern resort hotel. The house is surmounted, foy a cupola and from the flag staff on its top floats two beautiful state and -national flags. All together, the htolte is a credit to our delightful seaside; resort, and its pro portions and equipments will astonish all visitors when it will be remembered that the first dirt was thrown for Its foundations on the 10th of April and that it was completed June 10th in exactly sixty days. Messrs. Getaz & Co. were the contractors and they have turned over to the company a substan tial and well built house with secure foundations and excellent finish from p to bottom. . Within a few feet of the hotel there is a bathing house, with shower baths and large 'bath rooms for the accommo dation of. from 100 to 200 people at a time. There 1s also a large wareroom and another large room where a stock of nice bath suits are kept for hire. The surf bathing in front of the hotel Is un surpassed. The 'bottom is firm and the beach is one Of the finest on the two shores of America. With unsurpassed facilities for yacht ing and fishing, and with such a hotel as the "Seashore," Wrightsville Beach is bound to attract visitors from all over the country. Mr. George Campbell, the proprietor of the Seashore, was the moving spirit In Its erection hy the Wrightsville Beach Hotel Company. He Is an en terprising, progressive man and has a hustle about h fan that makes it no won der that he has had a big hotel built and is In St for business in sixty days. Mr. Campbell Is a born hotel man and is one of the best known ,hotelists in this country. He first engaged in the business on the Pacific Slope, and next owned and conducted the Phoenix at Corry, Pa. He next was proprietor of the Albemarle, at Pittsburg,' Pa., and made a -big reputation as proprietor of the Blennerhassett, at Parkersburg, West Virginia, which Is said to have been the best hotel In the south. For two years he has been proprietor of !the Central : at Charlotte, N. C, . and now he comes1 in pur midst to make Wrightsville Beach, famous with his Seashore Hotel." His chief " clerk ia Mr. E. A. Smith, a clever young gen tleman, and his steward Is Mr. R. J. Lewis, who Is known In many southern cities as one iof the best caterers in tMs country. The Messenger predicts for the "Sea shore", great' popularity and success, and we hope' to see . the hotel doubled before many seasons go by. Resident Intnranee Agents' Tw. In view of the fact that the last leg islature passed what ia known In other states as the "Reslden.t Agents Law", the following action by the insurance ; superintendent of Missouri, -which state has the same law, may of Interest to persons having large amounts of insurance to place. Several persons have already been arrested for viola tion of the law and the secretary of state has announced that he intends to. prosecute to the full extent of the law all such persons. The following is taken rrom The .New York Journal of Com merce and Commercial Bulletin, , of June 14th. v r The Insurance department of Mis souri has issued the following circular: St. Louis, -Mo.,- June 10, 1897. To Agents of Authorized Insurance Companies: I have advice that Insurance compa nies, nof licensed to transact business in 'Missouri, are soliciting (by circular letters and through brokers, and actu ally writing, policies of insurance on property located in this s1tate I desire to call your attention to an act of the legislature, approved (March 11, 1897, which will go Into effect June 20th next, known as the-lResldent Agents' Law," which tipulates how excess in surance may be legally obtained in this state. This law provides a penalty, for acting as .agent, or -placing insurance in -unauthorized companies.- The object of this law Is to protect the property Owners as well as the rights of the le gitimately licensed insurance compa nies. Licensed agents and citizens," generally, of the state are requested to notify this department of any viola tions of this law coming to their knowledge, to the end that prosecu tions may be Instituted under section 5917 of the Revised Statutes of 1889. Most of the clandestine insurance is solicited by companies that have no standing for solvency or ; hontorabje dealipg. In case of resisted losses, policy-holders can rarely get service in this state on the delinquent, and are obliged to go into another state to bring suit: To all this may be added the fact that the giving of business to unauthorized companies, is a contribu tion to the "prosperity of corporations who have no interest in the welfare of the State, who pay no taxes and no li censes, and whose work here Is in de- liberate violation of wholesome Jaws made for , the protection of the people of Missouri. Very respectfully, ED. T. OBEAR, Superintendent. , The Trial of Shriver Began. Washington, June 15. The trial of John S.
