1.-THE DRUNKARD.-
Success of Our Amateurs.

%NN'' va OAaA
The entertainment last, Wednesday
night, for the benefit of the Baptist
church, was largely attended and the
audience was well pleased. The play
selected was "The Drunkard," with
the following cast of characters:
Edward Middleton, Ben Shepherd;
Lawyer Cribs, Sam Williamson; Will
liam Dowton, wills Williamson; Far
mer Gates, DR. Richardson; Farmer
Stevens, G w Martin; Old johnson
and Waterman, r A Parish; Samuel
Exams, w II Bigham; First Loafer,
Lee Parish; Second Loafcr, 10 RAM
ser; Mr. Renzelau, Prof Gladney;
Landlord, Stephen Robinson; Bar
Keeper, Il a Parish; Stevens, (driv-
err w F Blankinship; Mary Wilson,
Miss Roe Mitchum; Agnes Dowton,
Miss Emma Deshong; Mrs Wilson,
Miss Lou Mcdaniel; Patience, Miss
Mittie Wylie: Miss Spindel, Mis- Dis,
sic Wylie; Julia, Miss Daisy Vogel.
The different parts were very well
rendered, especially when it is known
that all the players were amateurs,
and many of them had never attempt
ed a part before. All did well, and
we hope no one will consider us as
making invidious distinctions when
we say that the three leading charac-
tiers were especially good. The young
ladies all were so perfect in their
parts that we cannot praise one above
another. 1t would indeed be difficult
to decide, as each seemed to understand
and interpret the authors idea 50 dis
tinctly. However, we will mention
specially little Daisy Vogel-a wee
bit of a girl--who acted her part to
the lite, and received the universal
praise Of the audience. Mr. Nogel and |
his talented wife deserve and have the
thanks Of our citizens for their untir>
ing exertions in getting up and man.
aging the entertainment. They can
have the satisfaction of knowing that |
they were successful. They will in a
short time give another play for the |
benefit of the same church, after
which, if desirable, they will play for
the Methodist church. We have no
doubt they will he complimented with |
large audiences.
The Milan String and Brass Band !
also deserves special mention in this
connection. The members gave their |
sci vice-and excellent service and |
good music it proved 10 he. Tie |
band is a good feature Of our town
and should be encouraged.
The gross receipts of the evening
were $685.. Expense, bills fled with /
f. A. Collins, 5000. Net proceeds
S47.9J. The expense was really |
small when it is known that every
thing had to be bought or hired for
the stage, lights, etc, besides paIt of
the curtains.

Mr. J. W. Thomas has placed us I'M

fine cherries, for which he will accept

Ollie Chapman came at us again
last Monday with two more boxes Of
Strawberries. He is friend to the
editor, and we appreciate the fact.
Mr.. Welch, of Trenton, has recently
opened the City Hotel in this place.
He is said to be an excellent hotel
keeper and thoroughly unerstands his
business.

severely, but not dangerously, we
hope. He had a narrow escape.
The picnic at Frost last Wednesday
was a grand success. 1t is said there
werefour or five thousand people pres
ent. DIR Young and others spoke,
and the enjoyment wss very great.
One of our live citizens says he has
caught Mackinaw trout when they
were running by him at the rate of
two thousand miles a minute. That
story is slightly "fishy," we think.
The great bankrupt sale of Stone &
Mills Is attracting crowds, and goods
are going fast and cheap. Some things
sell at about half cost. This is GER
tainly fine opportunity for purchas-
ers.
"know all men by these presents,
politicians and Office seekers especially,
that all calls on gentlemen TO run for
Office, and answers to such calls, are
charged for a,regu'ar adverti>ingrates.

and We don't propose TO work for moth

There is considerable complaint
here at the Deputy Tax Collectors
charging fifty cents cost on collections
and some lawyers say he has no right to
do so. The Tax Collector is also COM
planned of for not being at the Court
house on first Mondays, when people
are ready to pay up.
We understand that three of Milan's !
ladies' men weat to Irrelevant one

made railroad time back to the tank, |
which they drank nearly dry, and res
