Disastrous Failurel

1t is with feeling of regret that we announce
the failure Of hosts OF people troubled with in-
action Of the kidneys to take efficient means to
renew their activity. This failure is most dis
astrous, for a complete wreck of the organs
themselves must eventuate IL timely means are
not taken to re-establish their secretiye func.

vents ultimate and fatal disaster AS it is one
of TIE functions of the kidneys to strain from
the blood. in its passage through them, impuri-
ties provocative Of Gropsy, rheumatism and

to be given to their operations when tardy or

TIE "OLE Hoss" SALE.
Lively Bidding for Unclaimed Express
Packages

Lively Bidding for Unclaimed Express
Packages.
Yesterday was the "ole horse" sale Of the
Southern Express Company, aud Auctioneer
c. II. Dorsett disposed Of quantity of the
accumulated valuables, which the company
has been holding for condgnees who never
came, to speculative purchasers.
The crowd in attendance was not very
large, but it was eager TO try its luck and
the bidding was lively. The sale was like
lottery. and the bidder weat on the theory
that every package might contain a prize.
Everything went. from an unclaimed
valise to hand organ and package of cut
flowers marked for immediate delivery, to
a fly fan. The character of most of the ar
ticles was undistinguishable, but patent
medicine, law b joks and Dand boxes con-
tanning last summers bonnets brought
good prices. Several pe6dlers were on
hand laying In miscellaneous stocks
to be disposed of TO advantage throughout
the country. When package was put up
two or three parties would bid stem" and
up it would go to Fifteen, twenty five,r
thirty, forty" fifty" where, if it was
small package, it would rest awhile, to be
finally knocked down at IS or 70 cents.
Ten packages were sold under so cents.
Large packages usually ran up to 81 and So
without regard to contents.
As purchasers were not allowed to take
packages from the office until the sale
concluded, the prizes were not
made known during the sale, and the crowd
continued TO bid without learning the re-
suit of its Investments. If any one secured
money, watches, diamonds or other valua-
bles with their purchases they kept it to
themselves.
Tie sale lasted from 70 to o'clock. A
large quantity Of packages were left on
hand at the close OF the sale, which will be
continued to-day.

AT THE THEATER.

"Alabams" Delights a Big Audience.
The Play and The Company.
Alabama" is a play one can see second
time with pleasure. provided IT is presented
by good company. There is not a great
deal in the play itself. No one would call it
a great play. But it interests an audience.
and play that does that has merit Of some
sort. The idea brought out in 1t is that it is
time that sectional animosites had disap
peared, and this idea is SO attraoAvely pre-
sented that it commands approval.
The entire action Of the lay is near
Talladega, Ala, and the different scenes in
the four acts ara at the residence OF Mrs.
Paige" and "Col. Preston" The scenes are
excellent ones AID help greatly to give
effect to the play.
There is very little plot aud less passion Of
the loud or hysterical sort, but there are
opportunities for the expression Of intense
feeling and fine acting. and these were
taken advantage of by the members of the
company which presented the play last
night.
The four characters which command the
greater part Of the attention of
the audience are " Col Pres
ton" which was presented by Mr.. Frank
Bangs; Squire Tucker, presented by Mr..
OdeIl Williams; Capt. Davenport pre-
scented by Mr. Clement Bainbridge, and
Mrs. Paige" presented by Miss Jennie
Eustace. The whole country is familiar
with Mr.. Bangs "Silver King" He is no
less successful as "Col. Preston" His make
up Ia excellent and his acting very fine. He
wins and holds the sympathy of the audi
ence and leaves very little room for adverse
criticism.
Mr.. Williams esquire" is a masterpiece
in its way. What fun there is he furnishes
1t is of the quiet sort. but very effective
and highly appreciated.
Mr.. Bainbridge wins his way to favor
quickly and remains a favorite to the end
of the play. His capt. Davenport" Is an
admirable creation, aud leaves very pleas
ant impression.
Miss Eustace, as MRS. Paige" is a most
charming person. Gentle, womanly and
quiet, but intense in her exhibitions Of feel
ing. She carries her audience with her and
grows in favor with each additional scene
The other characters were well presented
very WELL indeed. At the close of the
play the audience, which filed the entire
theater, felt that the evening had been an
exceedingly enjoyable one. The play is one
that gives pleasure to every one. It is
we'll worth seeing.
The play will be repeated at the matinee
and again tonight.
