A Family lU>union.
On the night after Christmas twen
ty-six descendants of the late Gen.
and Mrs. J. B, Kershaw-? the chil
dren, grand-children and great
grand-children ? assembled at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Bratton de
Loach ? the old Kershaw home, on
Lyttleton Btrcet, for a family re- j
union and merry ? making. . Cakes,
wine and fruits were served, old i
time games, music and dancing were
indulged in and there was nothing
to mar the pleasure of a delightful
evening, but the regret that all
could not share It ? some were many
miles. away and could not. attend.
And what can be happier than com
ing back to the old home? It is
teeming with happy memories. A
bright wood fire blazed as of old in
the wide, deep, old-fashioned chim
ney of the dining room, blue and
white hyacinths hung their fragrant
bells over the glided edge of the
vases on the mantlepteoe. As the
sweet strains of old-time songs float ]
ed through the rooms memory flew j
back to earlier years. Many of their,
jewels had been stolen, bnt recol- i
lections robbed the grave, and mu- j
(bIcs magic touch unsealed "Mem- |
ory's golden urn."

Martin Smith Dead.
Martin Smith, only son of Senator
E. D. Smith, died at Senator Smith's
Lynchburg home last night at 10
o'clock as the result of a deplorable
accident which occurred while young
Smith and his father were hunting
on Christmas day. When the young
man and his father had been out
some time <tn that day^ they . sat j
down on a log to rept. Martin laid
the riflo which he carried against
a nearby tree, and it fell down, the
load it discharged entering into
young Smith's stomach. \The young
man was immediately removed to
his home, and hope was entertained
for his recovery almost up to the
hour that he died. Last night, how
ever, about 9 o'clock complications
set in which caused the death of
Mr. Smith at about 10 o'clock. He
was only twenty years of age. ?

Bermudlan houses are built today
as they were centuries ago of coral
blocks literally sawed out of the
hillsides. A Bermudlan quarry is
'a queer institution. For conven
ience Jt is usually located on the
side of a hill where only a thin
layer of soil covers tho coral. The
blockB are sawed out by negroes
with lon^, coarse toothed handsaws
and cut In uniform sizes measuring
about . two feet long, one foot wide
and six inches thick. The roofa are
covered w|t\ overlapping slabs an
inch thick.
When taken from tho quarry these
coral blocks and slabs are very soft,
but after being/piled up for a month
or so and exposed to the air they
become hard and firm. Even then,
however, the coral Is porous so that
all Uermidian houses are covered
with a thick coat of whitewash or
lime a quarter of an inch deep.
This hides ail cracks and joints and
gives the surface a beautiful smooth
finish. To keep tho houses in good
condition a coat of whitewash is
applied eacli year."
What little, wood Is used for
floors, verandas, interior trim and
shutters can bo obtained from the
cedar trees that grow on The s;Yme
hills where the stone Is quarried.
With material so handy and ready
for use with so little work, it does
not cost, much to build in Bermuda.
In some of tho older houses and
churches tho cedar beams are lock
ed into the masonry exactly as a
shipbuilder would do it. Big chim
neys. sloping roofs to catch the rain
water, stone porches and windows
fitted with green shutters that push
outward are. features common to
many Bermudlan houses.

Prof, and Mrs. Vail and their

of the Wast India Yoga.
Mr. and ? Mtst Valt have spent
many years. in Hindustan, coining
into close rappart with the magici
ans of that country, and have ac
quired many of the secrets of their
art, which enables them to give an
entertainment far above any ever
seen before in this country. ? -It in
said that Mrs. Vail has become so
proficicnt that she is able to read
the inmost thoughts of her specta
1 tors, answering mental . questions,
locating missing relatives, lost ar
ticles and stolen property.
While in Bombay, Prof. Vail wit
nessed the remarkable experiment
of basse, the great Hindoo poten
tate, in which he caused living bod
ies to float in space, defying every
known law of gravitation. Prof.
Vail will duplicate this weird enig
