Barbecue.

We are authorized to announce
that the people of Frcnchman's Ba-
you have decided to have Grand
Reunion and Barbecue, on the ith.
of July next, to which all are cor
daily invited. The affair is under
the contol and management Of Col.
Ebcnczer Starnes, II synonym OF
success. Don't you forget it.
Vague rumors and intimations
floating about on the sun-scorched
June broegos reaches our ears like
the whispers of a soft dream, to the
effect that some sort OF Glove
feast " was had lately at one o. our
schools, wherein the teacher and
several of tho female pupils took a
every active" part, and during
which tears of" jaw wero copious-
ly shed. The affair has been hush
ed, and remains almost profound
secret. Even the gossips arc silent,
during our absence quite a
rookus" 4" was had and INDUCED IN
by parties from the rural district,
mention OF which was duly made
in the last issue. Since our return
we learn, from private sources, that
these rioters we melted and urged
on by those who should be exam
pies in the community, with the
view OF impeding and otherwise
annoying the executive officers IN
the discharge Of their official duties,
OF course this is all hear say to us,
bu, hope for the credit of our com
munity and its law abiding citizens,
that these assertions have no foun-
dation in fact besides such course
on the part of any one, no matter
what the provocation or cause OF
autagonlsm, can but result to their
dotriment, socially, financially, po-
li,ically and otherwise.

EDITOR OF TIE OseEoLA TIMES /:
Dear Sir:
Knowing that you wero absent
from our little town during the
week, hob-nobbing 1t with your
fellow "quiIl-drivers" and "ink-
singers" of the Press Gang in the
Getty of roses" permit me as one
OF a large and highly delighted au-
dience, to render through the col
umns of your much esteemed jour.
nal, a short account Of the musical
entertainment given to the Osccola
public on Friday evening of last
week by the pupils of our fair and
most worthy townswoman, Miss
Ella Rountrec. The hearty and
repeated applause that grecled the
rendition of "The Pet of the
School" spoke in language much
more eloquent than can my pen
the complete success Of this little
play. To criticize or particularize
any specific character or characters
would almost seem like an injustice
TO the others, as each did his or her
part so admirably well, yet we are
10th to pass by unment'oned the
wild, wayward "Miss JESSIE" dis
playing her true, loving heart
through all her wiliiulnoss, as acted
by Miss Belle Pettey. Young Ed.
wards (Wilhc Ward) refusal of the
French woman MISS Lura Roun-
trce) when he so traglcally said
"Were ! sentenced TO be hung
were in the cart, on my way to
the galIows; and were the Queen
TO send me pardon on condition
that l should marry you, | would
say to that cart, drive on" made
the little hall fairly rock and shake
with laughter. And last, though not
least, Miss Addie Rountree's clos,
ing speech was well delivered, her
voice sounding sweet and clear
amidst the brcathless silence of the
audience. The music, both instru.
mental and vocal, was good
might truthtully say, as judged from
a critics ear, very good, and reflect.
ed much credit on the pupils par
tioipating. When the "little ones y
grouped in tho shape Of star
trllcd forth their fairy song, the
gceno could bat have made every
mothers heart present beat with
PRIDE and lovc for the darIings who
did 50 well. The farewell song by
the whole school was fine, Its effect
being enhanced by the beautiful
and artistic grouping of the chill
drcn, which was the crowning iea
turc OF the entertainment
MISS Ella Rountrec certainly de
serves much credit for having fur.
nishcd our community with one OF
the most agreeable treats of the
season, ard is justly entitled to tho
confidence and gratitude of the pa
irons who have entrusted the mu'
steal training OF their children tc
