The Pride of Hickman. The lust
pride and boast of Hickman is the solid
solvency of her business men. There is
in fact, few towns of the same size and
pretensions, possessed of as much real
capital and this is not alone true OF The
merchants, but of the population gener
ally. Some of our own citizens will open
their eyes at this statement, especiaIy
those chronic eroakers who have been
forcing themselves to sing the psalm Of
life to starvation measure for the pas
year or so, but comparison Of figures
with other towns demonstrates the truh
of the statement. Why, it is conceded
that more than one instance can be Sc
leefed, where one Hickman house carries
more stock than the combined mereantie
capital of some of orr neighboring towns
This gives us yositive advantages eer
taiplv. but .andidly it is not without ie

instead of pushing to extend trade adj

they have, while their less fortunate com.
petitors, know they have to push, aud in
doing so, outstrip them The policy 6
saving what you have is the policy of wis

Quartz VS.. Quartz Mills.

Fortunes have long been a shuttle
cock and quartz and quartz mills the
battledore upon and between which
they have been raised and lowered,
won and lost. A void has long been
felt by the mining communit y, caused
by the want of a machine that will
mill milling ores and will save the
mineral at a less cost of mill and labor
than the stamp mills now in use.
Mr.. G. w. Miller, of this city, has
shown us the model of a mill of his in
v%ention, which he claims supplies the
want. Mr.. NJ. claims that his mill
costs one-tenth that of, and will crush
more quartz and save more mineral
with one-half the labor, than a 90
stamp mill. If Mr.. Miller's mill does
possess these qualities. it will create a
revolution in mining, and meet with
n hearty welcome.

Esther the Beautiful Queen.

This charming musical cantata was
performed at the Opera-house ON Fri
day and last evenings. 1t was drama
tically rendered in full Medean and
Persian costumes, with twenty-five
solo presentations and n chorus of forty
voices. l.. e. Blake in the character
of Ahasuerus, King of Medea and Per-
STA, acquitted himself most creditably,
while the rendition of the character
of Esther, the Queen. by Miss McMul-
len, was peculiarly faultless. The
scheming overseer of the realm,
Yaman. was well personated by Mr..
Remington, while Mr.. I. G. Whip
pie, In his delineation of Mordecai,
the Jew, showed careful study of the
part and an accurate idea of its intri-
cate and laborious character. OF the
remainder Of the characters in this
cantata as rendered here naught but
praise can be given, and he who could
find fault with even the slightest
detail would be indeed hard to please.
Too much praise cannot be bestowed
upon Mrs. Ida Hay, pianist, for her
skillful manipulation of the piano
throughout the entertainment. Com
pliments are poured in upon her from
every hand, and the highest admira-
tion Is expressed by NIL over the fairly
soul-melting music evoked by her
from the magnificent instrument used
at the entertainment.
Under the finished management of
Prof. Halleck everything moved along
smoothly, and we feel safe in pronoun-
cling this the finest thing OF the kind
ever gotten up In the Magic City.
