In company with quite a number of young men of this city, mainly em ployees of the Raleigh Sc Gaston Rail road Company, we boarded a special omnibus yesterday morning at 10 o'clock for Asbury. We found that we had with us the D A-v i 8 Quin tette Club, the new musical club re cently organized by the young men employed at the Raleigh & Gaston Railroad shops, composed of Ernest Martin, tenor; Tom Ennis, second tenor; Powie Matthews, alto, David Mebane, baritone; and Thomas Stone, basso; all singers of acknowledged talent. (The readers will note that Raleigh can now boast of a Jeff quar tette and a Davis quintette both first class musical institutions. We had a most enjoyable trip there. Our route lay through the prettiest part of Wake county. We found the crops iu what we would call first class con dition especially Maj Tucker's farm which presented a scene of unusual beauty. The woods and fields seem ed lovelier than usual, the birds sang sweeter and all nature seemed to wel come us, and in its new spring suit of green it seemed to wish us bon voyage on our short but pleasant trip. The club sang a great many songs and hymns, suitable to the day and occasion, very sweetly, and as our party of fourteen joined in the churus, it seemed to us truly inspiring. At 12 o'clock we arrived at Asbury, and although we had been two hours in travelling six miles, no one seemed to regret it. We went at once to the church which we found full to over flowing with the best people in the county, but the ushers had kindly reserved two front seats for our party. But now for the object of our excur sion. It was to witness the marriage of one of Raleigh's cleverest young men, and a valued employee of the R & G R R Co, Mr Matthew G Jones to Miss Julia Holloway, one of the most charming young ladies of the village, and exactly at one o'clock, the soft, sweet strains of the organ, under the manipulations of Miss Fannie Cobb, of Cary, betokened the ap proach of the bridal party. The at tendants entered the church in the following order : Mr Willie Adams and Miss Mollie Holloway, Mr Charlie Pa sinore and Miss Josephine Olive, Air William Jones and Miss Helen Burge, and Mr Melvin Andrews and Miss Collie Riggan. Then came Mr M G Jones and Miss Julia, Holloway, and took their place in front of the altar, when the Rev J R Maynard, most beautifully and impressively performed the ceremony; that made them man and wife, and a handsomer and happier pair it would be hard to find. The ushers were Mr Charlie Williams and Mr Willie Cooper and well did they perform their part in this drama of life. After the ceremony, a most boun tiful repast was served at the resi dence of the bride, and the writer regrets that he' was unable to accept the invitation to be with them, but a previous engagement with our old friend Mr David Williams had to be kept We cannot taka leave of Asbury without speaking of the large num ber of very pretty young ladies we saw there. In fact, we believe that all fourteen of the hearts of the young men that went in the omnibus, are lingering around Asbury yet. Iu Closing, we would say that our party consistting of Cornelius Thompson, Charlie Dixon, Ernest Martin, Alex Viola, Ed Pace, John Ferrall, Will Jordan, Thomas Stone, Powie Mat thews, David Mebane, Tom Ennis, Will Gattis, John Womble, and the writer wish to thank the people of Asbury for the kind reception given us, ana we hope that the time is not far off when we shall have the pleas ure of renewinging : the friendship so pleasantly made. A special' meeting of Phalanx Lodge No 84, K of P, will be held tonight for conferring the 2d and 8 ranks on candidates. A full attendance is re quested. -: ' '.- ' Died. It is learned today by private tele gram that the venerable Gen George Washington Haywood died at his home in Alabama today. He was a brother of the late Dr Fabins J Hay-. wood and of our respected fellow citi zen Dr E Burk Haywood. DrEBurk Haywood and his son Mr A W Hay wood was with him at the time of his death. Gen Haywood graduated at the University of North ..Carolina in Class of 1821 and was about 00 years of age. For many years he was one of the leading lawyers of this city. A 1 more extended notice will be given : hereafter. ' t Memorial Exercises. As we go to press today the memo-. . rial exercises are in progress; the at tendance is good; business houses are closed, and all seem anxious to par ticipate. This is as it should be, to remember our fellow heroes, and to teach sour children to cherish the memory of those brave and noble men who sacrificed all, life itself for the cause, they believed was right. Sleep well noble, brave ones, we will ever cherish your memory. Death of Prof Julius Tomliu son. Prof Julius Tomlinton, principal of the Greensboro graded schools, and beyond doubt one of the best educa tors in North Carolina, died at his home in Greensboro yesterday morn ing about 4 o'clock.
