J. H. Huntley's Dramatic Company

J. H. Huntley's Dramatic Company
will give three entertainments at Phoenix
Hall on next Thursday, Friday and Sat-
urday nights. This troupe is not only a
great favorite among the theatre-going
people of Grenada; but all over the South,
and no better company ever visits this
place. They have fine band and an
operate orchestra. "a Celebrated Case"
in six acts. will be presented on the first
night. The Columbus, Miss, Dispatch
OF December LIST, containg the following !:
"The Huntley Company has become
very popular throughout the Southern
States, not only for artistic merit, but be-
cause Of the social standing Of the mem
bers comprising the troupe. We were
glad to see a full house welcome their
first appearance this season in our city.
M. Auntley rs ar actor co paEasfaxora-
'bf5fy WIN Wafde. He Is q man of re-
markable grace and very handsome in
appearance. His acting is entirely devoid
ofmannerisms and very rarely disap-
points He is excellent in climax, meet
ing the most exciting parts OF the play
with depths of feeling that move the
audience at will His facial expressions
are natural and his enunciation clear
and musical. Miss Florence Kennedy is
a beautiful type of Southern womanhood.
Her movements are very rythmical and
her poislngs especially fine. Sheis lovely
just to behold, and as the personifcation
OF the exalted and pure characters of her
role is very attractive Her costumes are
rich and graceful in style. We must not
close this notice without making our bow
to little Constance" a child of about
five years who is a prodigy in acting.
Her tones are SO clear as to be heard dis
tinctly over the entire house, and she is
nature itself. The entire support of the
Huntleys is better than we usually see.
The music furnished by their own band
is well selected and accurately given,
adding very much to the other attrac-
ions"

Superstition Regarding Mole Spots.

A mole spot on the armpit really
promises wealth and honor. On the
ankle it bespeaks modesty in men, but
courage In women. When mole spot
is found on the right breast it is sure
sign of honesty; il on the left it fore
bodies poverty; on the chin it promises
wealth, on the right ear respect, on the
left ear dishonor. II it is seen in the
center of the forehead il bespeaks
treachery, sullenness and untidiness.
II it is on the right temple it foreshad-
ows that you will enjoy the friendship
of the great; on the left temple 1t fore
bodies distress; on the right foot it be-
speaks wisdom, on the left rashness.
When it is on the right side of the heart
1t denotes virtue; when ON the left side
wickedness. When it Is on the knee of
a man it denotes that he will have q
rich wife. When it is on the left knee
of woman she may expect large
family. A mole on the lip is sign Of
gluttony and talkativeness; on the neck
It promises wealth. A mole on the
nose indicates that a man will be -
great traveller; on the thigh 1t forebodes
poverty and sorrow and on the wrist
ingenuity.

The grape crop of the United States.
agriculture, is really becoming So to an
extent that appears TO be, rs yet little
understood or appreciated by the
miscellaneous public. Its real import
nnce, however, was recently shown by
a remark made by a leading and in
fiuential European connosseur in wines
who had been travelling through the
grape-growing districts of the United
States, to the effect that he was salts
fled that our American wines ought not
to be rated as inferior TO the cores
ponding classes of foreign wines, and
that he believed that in the course of
time their excellence would be fully
recognized and established all over the
world. Aside, however. from this
judgment, the culture of the grape as
fruit for edible purposes has made i'm
mense progress in the New England
and Middle States and in the
West, and, although as yet we cannot
say that these grapes are equal to the
fine imported articles from Southern
Europe, they are certainly very much
improved III quality and abundance rs
compared with the grape used for the
same purpose in the same regions
fifteen or twenty years ago. The manu-
facture of wine from American grapes
has improved so much in the hands of
the German, French, Spanish and
italian capitalists who have established
themselves in this business in America,
that since the grape disease began to
prevail in Southern Europe large guam
titles of American wine are used by
foreign manufacturers. Germantown

The New Highlander who does not like
pumpkin pies should be ostracised.
They are reminders 10 many of the hal
cyon boyhood days of country life. A
large golden pumpkin pie set on the
table is almost sufficient to give the
dyspeptic good appetite, and cause
him to see worldly affairs in roseate
hues. The farmers are now bringing
pumpkins into the market, and many a

Mrs. Langtrey, who arrived last
Saturday on the Oregon, looks much
stouter than she did when she left
this country. Her journey on the
continent has evidently done her a
great deal of good. She is living
very quietly at Albermarle, and the

The College of the City of New
York, has at last taken a'step in the
right direction by opening classes in
mechanic arts, which may be attend
ed by the students. If the investiga-
tons of the Senate Committee on La
Dor and Education have had no 9TH
er effect, they had at least this one,
that they aroused the attention of
those who have the education OF the
young in hand, to the necessity of
fitting them for the struggle oflife
better than by examining their heads
with lot of useless knowledge.
We have too many half starved pro-
fessional men, too many book-keep-

salaries. ranging from twenty TO sew
ty-fve dollars a week. There is no
reason why our American boys
should not become adopts as well as
they, and that the money which goes
abroad should stay in this country.
At present the movement of the
faculty Of the College of the City oil
New York is merely tentative ; that
is to say, the school of mechanic art
is not to be kept up if it is found that
it interferes with the regular course
of studies; but there is no doubt tina,
its advantages will become so mani

JOLIET, ILL, October 30.-In the Mooney
murder trial this morning the prosecution
called as witnesses Drs. Heise and Dougal.
The defense having tried to throw a cloud
over the testimony that was given by the
medical experts, the remains of the dead
convict were exhumed on Friday night,
the head cut from the body and taken to
the Office of DR.. NJ. B. Campbell, where it
was dissected on Saturday. 1t was then
placed in box, and when court opened
this morning q mysterious looking. box
was placed upon a table in front OF the
Jury. 1t had been reported by witness
for the defense that they were going to
prove that the wound described as having
penetrated the ear, knocking out several OF
the teeth, was an impossible one and could
not be made. The box was opened and Q
decided sensation occurred in the court
room when the CHASTITY head OF the muir
dered convict was exposed to view. Inc
body had been buried five months. The
face was well preserved, the skin being
drawn and wrinkled. One side OF the face
had been dissected from the ear to the
lower jaw, showing the course OF the knife
through the ear. The side OF the Jaw was
broken and several teeth missing. The
knife must have been struck with all
mans strength to pierce the jaw bone, the
direction OF the blow showing it to have

have done it himself. This completely
upset the theory OF suicide.
