The Seed Wheat Question.

EDITOR ADvooATE:-It is stated by
the daily papers that the appeal for seed
grain has met with no response. TheAl-
lance Of Rice county was convened in
special session, committees were ap-
pointed to solicit aid for the needy in the
western counties. Our county, although
having less than half an average crop
has donated near two car loads OF seed
grain which is in the hands Of Mr.. AL
bert Wynn Of Lyons. Being near the
counties that have failed we receive a
larger portion of the calls for relief. I'm
less there is general response through
out the prosperous portion OF the state
not near enough grain will be furnished
and the demand fUr special torn OF the
Legislature will be strongly urged by the
west. It would seem that our friends
should at once comply with the request
for hslp. Many of the people viii have
to abandon their homes unless relief is
given. W. M hENToN'

 Mir. Charles Frohman never sends out a poor company His name guarantees the faithful fulfillmelt of his promises. The Masked Ball is an adaptation from the French. by that clever playwright Mr Clyde Fitch, who in this work, preserved the original idea to the fullest extent The comedy element is good in every sense nor is it unrelieved by pathetic incidents. The play since it's first production has beeu criticised, and severely, too, simply, however, from an artistic standpoint It was said that the situations were unnatural. Not necessarily so. The most ordin- ary incidents are seldom amusing. Be that as it may, as q drawing. mirth-proyoking article, AIr. Froh- man secured prize. Another thing. it has never had a genuinely poor production. The interpreters have been fitted both by nature and culti- vation for the parts which they have assumed.
 Last night Mr. Coote's sBlondet,' was in every sense a faithful picture of John Drew. He read his lines in- telligently and acted his part consci- cautiously. The portrayal of such q character is not easy. It is difficult, and especially with such d standard to work for Mir. Shines "Poulard'' was excellent. His work was satis- factory in every particular Miss Inda Palmer, however, did not do justice to her ability. The part is one of little scope. She has done better in other things. As to Miss Young she, with better judgment than Mir. Coote. but possibly with less success, was original. Winsome Maude Adams is an ideal '.Susanne. Miss Young did not strive to initiate, and to her credit, be it said, she sue ceeded. She played well. The other members of the company were cap able artists in their line. The audi ence was large and well pleased Another or the same one of Mr. Froh- mans companies willreceivea hearty welcome in Pine Bluff

THANKSGIVING DAY.
Gov. Fishback's Proclamafion-How I
 Will Be Observed in Pine Bluff.

November 30. 1893, has been desig mated by Gov. Flshback as Thanks
 giving Day in Arkansas, and he has i'll accordance herewith SO pro claimed it. It is the usual custom
 of the citizens of the great Common wealth to assemble in the different places of worship in the cities, the towns and i'll the country and give thanks to Almighty God for his good ness and mercy during the past year, and, of course, this year will be no exception. Arrangements are now being made by the members of the different churches ill this city to ob- seve the day in thanksgiving and prayer, and we trust that somesteps will be taken whereby the poor and needy that are always with us shall also have occasion to feel specially remembered on that day It is the custom in many cities for each little school girl and boy of the different schools to bring something in the way of food. clothing or presents to the school buildings the day before, and the articles thus gathered are sent out to the different charitable institutions and to the homes where want is felt. Let something ill this city be done that will on that day make hundreds of hearts happy that otherwise could not rejoice with those who have plenty.
 There are a great many families in Pine Bluffnow making preparations for a "big dinner" on that day. Will they not add to their own pleasure by taking some steps toward mak- ing others rejoice on the arrival of Thanksgiving Day?
