MUGG's LANDING.
A Gay Time at Fry's Opera House En-
ioyed by a Large Audience.


At Fry's Opera House last evening
Mugs Landing Company did remark
ably well. The play, consisting of four
acts, was undoubtedly the most comical
affair of the seasons amusements. a
successful attempt to keep from laugh
ter, even by the crustiest old bachelor
present, was entirely out of the ques-
ton. The troupe advertises to make one
laugh, and the constant roar of the au-
dience last night goes to confirm their
claims to a wonderful degree.
Miss Carlotta, in presenting and sus-
tanning the role of Mugs, rendered her
part in most bewitcbing way. This
dashing actress is pretty, graceful and
fascinating and from first to lass was
the cynosure of nearly every eye in the
house. Her singing was very nice and
her dancing might readily be said to ex-
Gel anything of a similar nature ever
performed upon Palatka stage.
Mr.. Alfred Mcdonald, as Asa Beech,
and Mr.. William j. Mason, as Soger
Judson We're truly amusing and af-
forded the spectators oceans of fun.
Flowers We're thrown to Miss Carlotta
at the conclusion of her dance in the
last act.

EaAa Reading.

Bijou Hills Times:-The c%orrespon-
dence in the Kimball GRAPHIo OF last
week between Capt. w. v. Lucas of
Chamberlain and c. N. Walker OF Full
ton KY, and editor of the Boomerang, is
good reading. If for no other reason it
shows the spirit animating the Demo,
cratic portion of the South. The spirit
represented in the letter of Mr.. Walker
had better take cognizance of the fact
that all the white people OF the South
are not in unison with his thought. The
spirit of republ.canlsm is permoating the
Southland, and the leaven that has been
at work in the South has become so much
strengthened that the great majorities
are slipping away, and even old Kahn
tuck has some fears least she will fall a
victim to northern liberality and the
spirit that is in an honest ballot.
