The Opening of the Town Hall.

The much talked Of opening Of yelling
toms handsome new town hall has at last
taken place and is now one OF the things
that were.
Monday evening, May 3rd, the house,
which seats one thousand, was filled to
overflowing with the beauty and elite OF
our little city. A fine orchestra from Nor.
walk, led by Dewitt Foster, discoursed
sweet music All were on the "qui vive,"
and awaited anxiously the raising Of the
drop curtain, which is pronounced by our
art amateurs as quite the thing"
At about halfpast eight o'clock the
play, IAN Unequal Match" with the star,
Mile. Rhea, as Hester Grazebrook, was
presented TO the delighted and expeciant
audience. The play was simple Eng
lish comedy, It's opening scene being situ.
ated in Yorkshire. The acting of Rhea in
the part OF Hester Grazebrook, the heroine
of the play, was considered a very fine eff.
fort. Her support was not as well receiv-
ed, and rather marred the rest Of the piece.
In the closing act Rhea appears in her ia
nous costume, designed by Worth, for the
Queen OF Holland. She wore 1t with
characteristic grace.
On Tuesday evening the brilliantly
lighted hall, Notwithstanding the rain and
gloom, was again packed, many being
present from Elyria, Norwalk, 0berlin,
Lodi, and other towns. Mile. Rhea ap-
peared in the part of Gilberte, in Frou.

ed with tears.
Mile. Rhea's accent was very pretty and
could, for the most part, be quite readily
understood, except where her delivery was
rapid. Miss Adelaide Fitlallen, as Lou.
ise, sustained the part with much credit to
herself The part Of Sartoris, taken by
Edward Warren, was not well carried out
his enunciation was so imperfect. Mile.
Rhea appeared In six different costumes
during the presentation of the play All
were exceedingly rich and becoming while
the pink china crepe, pale blue satin and
point lace, the black satin, brocaded in
punches Of roses, buds and leaves, with
diamond ornaments, were something much
above the average stage dress.

M. w. Shepherd, which was followed by
discussion on buying bees by the pound
and the result Of the same. The question
was raised as TO whether colonies could
be built up too early in the spring. Mr..
Boardman thought 1t was impossible TO
have a colony too strong at any time, and
said that as soon as the honey season open
ed If he had any colonies that were weak,
he should put two swarms together for the
purpose Of making one very strong colony.
Dan. White thought it better TO have colo
nies strong early in the season and keep
them so rather than run the risk Of not
having them so when the honey season
opens, but thought 1t possible TO have
them too strong too early in the season.
Mr.. Newman stated that in an experience
of fifteen years he had never had colony
too strong TO suit him, and he thought the
apple bloom valuable source Of honey II
the weather proved favorable. He would
not advise spreading the brood nest, but
If the queen needed more room, he would
insert comb outside the brood nest, and
continue doing so as fast as she could use
them.
At the afternoon session the annual cleo
tion Of officers was held, and II. ii. Board.
man was elected president, Charles Nc
Clave vice president, and II. W. Minns
secretary and treasurer. Mr.. Newman
then delivered an address on the subject

but gave instances where men had gone
into bee.keeping and lost all. He thought
the mistake was made by purchasing the
bees in the fall, and thought that large
majority Of the investments made In bees
resulted In failures. Mr.. Waldron thought
that TO be successful the bees should be
made 10 pay their own way, and II they
did not do 30 they were kept at loss TO
the owner. N. A. Knapp stated that for
the past six years his bees had paid as
well as anything on his farm, but that he
would not be willing 10 sell his farm and
invest the proceeds in bees, and make a
specially Of Bookkeeping. Mr.. Boardman
thought that man TO be successful must
be perfectly adapted TO, and in harmony
with the business. Mr.. Smith had kept
bees for fifteen years, and could not say
that he had ever made much money, but
was sure he had never lost any.
Mr.. Newman thought In the production

New LONDON, o., Feb. 17.-Considera.
BILE discussion is going on here over the
lecture on religion gwen hy Rev. Mr..
Calvin, OF the Catholic church in the town
hall last week. II was attended by all
classes, by our prominent ministers, and
was particularly adapted 10 an American
audience. No discourse here ever drew
more comment While we dissent from
some Of the views expressed, yet in each
instance they were ably defended, and in
good English. For force Of argument, for
liberal fairness and for terse English it is
conceded on all sides 10 have been one of
the ablest lectures ever given in the hall.
Doors open at 7 90; lecture commences
at 800.

Calvin tells us that he was somewhat

is by q high regard for law that a ruler
proves himself worthy OF his place..
Every public officer among us takes
an oath to execute the laws pertaining
to his office, and the man who for
bribery, or cowatdios or any other
resson declines TO do il is guilty OF per-
jury, and is no longer Eorthy Of pub
lie trust. New York City set good
example the other day when, through
the court, striped suit was put upon
a former alderman Of ME city and
he sentenced 10 q term ofYears in the
penitenhary because he took brides.
II an officer or Judge fintls that he
cannot Conscientiously execute the
law, then let him resign, and il he
will not, let law loving and law
abiding people compel him to do it
on the first provocation. II is not for
executors of the law to gay that is OPP

the other day to read in the APPEAL
that perhaps 200 persons make their
living in this city by gambling, and IS
many more by selling liquor without

sad commentary on our courts aud
iuries. That 400 people should live
in the broad daylight Of city like
ours, undisturbed in the open and
constant violation of the laws of the
land, is a mat or for serious re-
Election by al good citizens, and
bad on's too, fer that. Under our
law gambling is a felony. A man has
no more right TO keep a gamb'i ing

a house 20 receive stolen goods, And
say further that no officer or court,
has any moro right to grant license

NEGOTIATIONS PENDING
Between the Memphis, BirminR-
ham and Atlantic and Georgia
Pacific.

The railroad problem just now is
difficult of solution and increases in
interest. Negotiations are now pend
ing between the Memphis, BirmiDg-
ham aud Atlantic railroad and the
Georgia Pacific, looking to a consoli-
dation of the two roads, so as to form
a continuous line from Memphis, by
way of Birmingham, to Atlanta. A
glance ct the map will show that these
roads consolidated would supply
most important Eastern connection,
giving us the most direct route
to the coal and iron fields OF
Alabama and to Atlanta, the capital city
aud railroad center OF Georgia. IL is
well known that the Georgia Pacific
and Georgia Central constitute rival
systeme. The G aorgia Central system
is now at Good Water, within about
fifty miles of Birmingham. The Kan
sas City company has already begun
the construction of it's road westward
from Birmingham and lis uudersiood
that large force is now Mt work on
this line. The road OF the Georgia
Pacific runs west from Birmingham,
about ior;y.fve miles in direct
line of Memphis. 1t thus appears
that the Kansas City Company parsl-
lels its road for that distance out OF
Birmingham. The outcroppings all go
to show that the Kansas City Com
pany and the Georgia Central system
look to close alliance, while, on the
other hand, the Memphis, Birming'
ham and Atlantic Company and the
Georgia Pacific will consolidate. To
accomplish this it is only necessary to
extend the road OF the former com
pany the distance of about 100 miles
east from Tupelo. 1t is more than
probable, alter all, that we are to
have two roads from Memphis to Biz.
