Kinstop, June 27. Thin tiny ma' t,e ' . . ... , . , ' the his,ory r Kinston. The expecta- tions of the citizens as to the size of . the crowd and preparation therefore ' were surpassed hy a large reckoning . and in every respect success marked ... me euorcs 01 me various cominiucw to make the occasion memorable not i only for the citizens but for the visi tors. They took care of the large crowd splendidly and not a man who was present but will testify to the munificence and hospitality of the peo ple of Kinston. Like in the days of old all roads kd to Rome, all thoroughfares terminated in Kinston. Every railroad brought crowds of people, vehicles of all de sciiption attested that there were large delegations of the rural population in town to see the sights. While the streets were full of people and it va3 everywhere evident that the attend ance was large, the best idea of the size was gained at the speakers stand where they were massed together. A very conservative estimate puts it at 7,500 people. The day was hot and the suns rays shot down almost merciless ly but that condition did not appear to cause any difference with the pleasure of the people. The belated Coast Lin-? train from Greenville which brought Lt. Governor Winton to the exercises was met at the depot by the Governor and Masons on the way to the hospital. The pro cession which was arranged as follows met the train and proceeded immediate ly to the speaking at 10 o'clock : Second Regiment Band. ; Company D, Goldsboro. ''" Company B, Kinston. Governor Glenn and Masonic Commit tee of Arrangements in Carriages. District Masons and Prominent Citi zens in carriages. Caswell Fire Company No. 1. Grand Master Francis D. Winston and Committee on Entertainment in carriages. The procession was very imposing and was itself composed of about one thousand Masons and soldiers. The speakers stood on a platform covered with branches which afforded grateful shade and the place was hap pily selected as it was in a grove where he heat was not felt so severely. Seats on tho platform were reserved for the officers of the Grand lodge. Mayor N. J. Rouse was the first speaker and in his official capacity wel comed the people to the hospitality of the city. He was succeeded by J. W. Grainger who welcomed the visitors on behalf of St. John's Lodge No. 4. He gave a succinct history of the lodge stating that tradition had its existence in 1760 and that it was a matter of rec ord that it was in existence in 1751. The response to the welcome was made by Lt. Governor Francis Wins ton, Grand Master. His was a short but most .happy and entertaining ad dress, praising the work of the Masonic fraternity in the world at large and its accomplishments with the State. After his address the Grand Master accompanied by the officers of the Grand Lodge proceeded with the cere monies of laying the corner stone. As the crowd was too large to change its position in order to view the ceremony it remained as it was and during the short interval the band rendered some very pleasing pieces. . Mr. Plato Collins made a speech pre senting the keys of the hospital to the Board of Lady managers to whom are intrusted the affairs of the Charity a: I nex. . lie stated briefly but clearly object of the donors and how the chari ty annex came to be built. . Mr. L. R. Varser accepted the keys on behalf of the ladies.

Glenn had but recently recovered from a dangerous Beige of sickness, and he is still weak bit he made one of his characteristic address- en. One of those which makes sman feel glad he is alive and though he made no more of an impresion than he has done oft time before, he spoke with firmness, eloquence and fervor, with the air of one who has the courage of his convictions and one who has the best interests )ot the State at heart.

Is Thaw Insane J; ' Special to Journal New York, June 27. Interest, in the latest scandal-murder, that of Stanford White by Harry Thaw grows greater on account of the prominence of all the parties concerned. White, the mur dered man, was a member of one of the largest firms of architects in the world.
