THE YOUTHS AT DEBATE
They Tackle Great Britain's National
Prestige, and Handle it Well.

A very select audience of honorary and
pay members of the Youths Historical So
ciety, attended the literary entertainment
at Masonic Hall last night, and the good
things were heartily applauded by the APP
preciative ladies and gentlemen that were
present.
The exercises opened with piano solo,
The Jasper March, by the composer, Mr.. L.
Rosenfield
Mr.. II. Greenwood, in an inimitable way,
recited, MY Motherin-Law,n in the Afri-
can dialect, and when recalled sang an
Ethiopian song that would have done credit
to professional minstrel.
The old and the new waltz, by Mr.. /. Rosen-
field, was artistically executed and was
encOred
Mr.. E. L. Brown kept the audience in roar
by his essay on love, given with a very
comic German brogue, and the intrinsic
humor of the essay was heightened by the
felicitous facial punctuations of the reader
lie was encOred for fully five minutes, and
a special delegation waited upon him in the
green ROOM f." and tried to persuade him to
respond to the encore, but Mr.. Brown was
satisfied with his laurels, and the stage
curtain descended without his reappearace.
The entertainment concluded with de-
bate: "ReSolUed, That England will al
ways maintain her prestige as first nation
of the world.n The affirmative debaters
were Me srs. A. E. Dryfus and Oscar Kul-
man. The negative were Frank Kulman
and NJ. II. Haym. The Moderators were
A. S. Cohen, chairman; Sam Platshek and
Sam Selig. The debate was scholarly, crit
ical, historic, eloquent and earnest. The
orators who had the negative side of the
question had two small American flags on
their desk, but it did not save them, as the
Moderators decided for the affirmative,
but had a vote of the audience been taken
the affirmative would have been hopelessly
showed under.
A. E. Dryfus was the better orator and
Frank Kulman the better logician; Oscar
Kulman the greatest satirist, NJ. H. Haym
the best historian. The negative had the
best of the argument, but did nos follow it
to proper conclusions. All desa rved credit
for the patience of their researches and the
vigor of debate.
the MORNING News columns were drawn
upon by both sides upon questions affecting
the craftsmanship of the British government
and the condition of the navy of Great
Britain, which shows that the young men
do not only dive into the musty tones of
the literature of past ages, but keep abreast
of the history which is being made to-day,
and which the MORNING NEWS faithfully
mirrors in its columns.

Charming Success.
The matinee performance of Dorothy IS
Birthday" was nearly as well attended as
was tue first nights performance. Long
before 2:30 O'Clock the Theater was filled
with throng of ladies and children. The
cast of characters was the same as that on
Tuesday night. The chorus singers in the
birthday party scene sang better, if any
thing, and added much to the enjoyment of
the entertainment. Miss Nellie Wakemans
voice was more under her control than ON
the previous night, and she sang very
sweetly.
At the end of each act the plaudits were
deafening. Much of the success of both
entertainments was due to the interchangeable
efforts and skillful management of Miss
Jessie j. Bruce.
The part of MOLLY" the little child of
the drama. was artleSsly and happily

To enable the readers of the MORNING NEWS
to advertise at mere nominal figure a rate
Of ONE CENT A WORD was established
about eighteen months ago for advertisements
inserted in the Cheap Column, This column
has been well patronized and is now a popular
feature of the paper. There are many people,
however, who would avail themselves Of the
advantages offered by advertising, but they do
not because they do not, or think they do not,
know how to write an advertisement. TIC
meet this difficulty the MORNING NEWS takes
this method of informing advertisers who de-

clerks in the office from 8 A. NJ. to 10 P. Nj.
who will write up advertisements in proper

A DIVISION OF THE SURPLUS.
A Colored Society at Law Over the
Settlement of its Finances.

a Colored Society at Law Over the
Settlement of its Finances
The Ladies' and Gentlemen's Independent
Union Aid Association Branch of the Chat
ham County Blues is the very long-drawn
cut title of a colored society of this CITY
which is engaged in constitutional scbism
the meat of which is TO bring about a
division of about $50 or S3j in the treasury
II is proper TO say that this is a branch
without a parent stem. Some years ago
the colored folks contemplated the orCapiza-
ton of military company to be known as
the Chatham County Blues, and about that
time the branch above mentioned was or
ganized, but the military organization was
never effected.
Recently the society concluded to adopt
a new constitution, which it did, respecta-
ble minority opposing It. Yesterday a dele
CATION representing the minority, visited
the office Of Justice Molina and wanted %
take out a possessory warrant for the old
constitution, but an investigation developed
the fact that they had never been the custo-
dians Of IL. but that the Secretary Of the
Tong winded branch under the Old corlstitu
ton, is also the Secretary unCer tie new
document, and the proper and present Gu
todian of botu papers. The Justice there
fore refused to issue the writ, and thus the
anticipated dividends viii remain in the
Treasury. The delegation could not con
ceal its chagrin as it filed sadly out.
