Cummings and Miss Eva Smith, a 1 7-Year-Old Couple, Were Wedded Last Niht. A rumor that had gained currency in Klnston since Monday tiat tbene was to be a surprise marriage in the Baptist church Thursday night culmi nated In a tidal wave of cunottitv mat carried an unugual crowd to the church last nitrht. It was estimated that 5' Oof Kins ton's fairest, with a irenerous sprink ling of nn a well, attended the itWtklv nrai'nr nii'ftlnir at the liantlKt church on that occuslon, which, it goes without saying, was a considerable increase over the usual attendance at the mid-week Christian devotions at the church. Ladles in bunches were seen at an early hour in the evening wending their way BaptiHt-churchwaru and ere Pastor Cowan reached his pulpit the church was crowded with an eager ex pectant throng to w itness the marriage ceremony of a young: couple whose names had been whispered from ear to ear as the probable parties that were to furnish the surprise. blnce Monday tne names or a cer tain couple had been whispered from one to another with a coupled injunc tion binding the recipient of the news to secrecy. This, of course, gave wings to the rumor and resulted in a large crowd of people going to the Baptist church lastevenlng and hear Ing a splendid discourse from the pastor. Jf astor Cowan welcomed the throng to his congregation and told them that probably a large number had come through curiosity to see an event which would not take place at his church last night. The crowd, though disappointed at Madam Rumor playing them false. enjoyed the pastor's discourse and after being dismissed quietly repaired to their various homes, believing that the rumored surprise was not to be. But, and thereby hangs the tale, ar rangements were quietly forming for the ceremony to be celebrated at the home of the bride's parents, and at few minutes past nine o'clock last night Mr. H. W. Cummings, Jr., seven teen-year-old son of Mr. J. B. Cum mings, and Miss Eva, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George J. Smith, were quietly married, Pastor Cowan per forming the ceremony. This was the surprise marriage scheduled for the church last night but It is thought that the given it' had caused a changeap elt program. conflicting rumors were anoat yes terday afternoon, which kept everyone on tne qui vive ror tne outcome, After f astor cowan had returned to his room at Dr. R. H. Lewis' after the church service, he received a message to come to (Japt. smith's home, and he and Mrs. Lewis wentand there found a few friends of the couple gathered to witness the ceremony which was per formed in the luxuriantly appointed parlor of capt. smith's borne. Mr, Carl Harper acted, as best man to the bridegroom. It was a pretty home marriage, in which two young hearts had decided to stem life's turbulent stream in a single bark. Uoth of the young people are des ervedly popular in Klnston and where- ever known. Mr. Cummings, being a young man who is just budding into a commercial life of busy activity, now holding a position as traveling sales. man for a wholesale house in Norfolk, va., and everyone that knows Miss Smith knows her to be oneof Klnston' fairest young flowers just springin into glorious young womanhood, an of the most evenly tempered and sweet disposltioned character that is known. A host of friends of the young couple join in offering congratulations to them and wish them a long, happy and useful career. After the ceremony the couple visited the home of the bride-groom's father, Mr. J. is. cummings. Rumor has it that objection had been raised by the parents of the young couple on account of their youth, but had been withdrawn after they had seen the determination of the young people. The Innocent Beauties. The Innocent Beauties played an en gagement at the opera house last night to a large crowd of amusement-lovers who showed their pleasure at the play by frequent applause ana encores of nearly every number of the program. The way was free from any obiec- tionaoie features ana abounded in ridiculous situations of mirth-provok ing character that kept the audience in a state of jollity the whole of the time. j.-s v . . - ,. , -.-v .... The eirla acquitted : themselves in their singing aed dancing in a manner that pleased the house and which was free from a suggestion of Indecorum. features of the show were of decided merit. The juggling ana acrobatic re a is were especially good, being performed in a , ludicrous manner ana yet snowing remarkable skill and splendid training of the per former. V This feature By the well trained team was of a class that has never been surpassed In Klnston. The cornetist also showed great musical talent, rendering several cornet solos that the audience highly appreciated. in one of the farce conversaziones In which One of the players mesmerized his team-mate and had him to unveil the future of .Klnston, he prophesied the re-election of Geo. B. Webb a) mayor of Klnston In the coming may oralty campaign. This elicited great applause trom the audience. (He didn't go far enough to tell us of our bond issue for street improvements.) Taken altogether the show was good and met with a warm welcome from Klnston theatre-goers, who expressed a wish for a return engagement at an early date. ! . Telephone Superintendent Short. ,.
