"A GILDED FOOL"
Nat Goodwin's Next Play at the
Metropolitan.

metropolitan.
In none of his previous plays, if the
Eastern cities are to be believed. has
Nat c. Goodwin made such a brilliant
success as in "a Gilded Fool" the new
comedy written for him by Henry Guy
Carleton, and to the presentation of
which his time is practically devoted this
season. Nat is every inch an artist,
which means that he is veratile, and
tnat his powers are not limited as TO the
narrow field of one branch of his art.
He has a wonderful command over
pathos, as well as humOr, as every tue
comedian must have, and in "a Gllded
Fool" he is given ample opportunity TO
display all his gifts. Whether in his
serious or humorous work, Mr. Good
win is equally admirable. He fairly
plays with the feelings of his audiences.
causing them 10 laugh and cry alter
nately at his own sweet will. There Is
not too much serious work in the new
play, but quite enough to make the
story interesting in its entirety.
There is a laugh for almost every
minute of the performance, with a
Quiet tear thrown in occasionally to add
to the effect by contrast. The dialogue
is described as unusually bright and
sparkling, and the situations are COM
plicated and funny, without even over
stepping the boundaries or probability.
Mr.. Goodwin has always believed in
surrounding himself with a competent
company. His mind is broad enough
to understand that there is room enough
on the stage for good actors and act
resSes, besides the star OF the OrganiZa-
tiOn, and he has ability enough not to
feaI the competition of his support.
Every part in "A Gilded FOOl'' is in the
hands of an artist Of merit, and the re-
suit is an ensemble that is delightful.
The leading lady of the company Is
Miss Mabel Amber. and her work has
gained her golden opinions. Pretty
little Minnie Dupree, the charming SOU
brette Of the organization, is as dainty
and YivaciOuS as when she first jumped
into popularity as Susan in "Held by
the Enemy" The setting of the play is
quite up to the highest standard of stage
art. The scenes are all rich and elabOr-
ate,and every possible attention Is given
to the details of the production. "a
Gilded Fool" is announced for perform
ance in this city at the Metropolitan
opera house for the first four nights of
the week beginning tomorrow, Monday,
night. The 'NOminee," Mr.. Goodwin's
great success of last season, will be
given for the first time in this city on
Friday and Saturday evenings. There
will be matinee performance Of "A
GTllded FOOF' Oh Saturday.

Editor DEMOCRAT: Farming has been suspended for the last few days on ac- count of the recent heavy rain. The hail on last Thursday damaged oats and fruit considerably, and the frost that followed on Friday night made things still worse. The heavy rain thatsfell on the 18th almost amounted to a water spout, and the creeks and branches were soon almost or altogether nayigable for steamboats. Will Huff7s mill was torn out and parts of it floated for five miles. Several cases of continued fever are reported in the vicinity of Quincy. . Uncle Lem Standridge was seriously hurt few days ago while riding skittish horse. The horse jump ed sideways and then ran backwards, throwing Uncle Lem against the horn of the saddle with such force as to break three ribs. Uncle Lem is now nearly eighty years old, and it is wonder that he staid on the horse. Mir. Hensley is making a fine farm out on the east side of Raspberry Knob. We need more such men on this mountain, and there are several places which they could make fine farms of by laying out the necessary muscle power, Any good, honest, poor man who wants farm for the taking, and is willing to work like Mir. Hensley, would do we'll to come along and take good place while it may be had for nothing. ~ The writ CT greatly admires the eloquent, liberal and manly speeches which the Hon. Lawrence Russell has made in the cause of the laboring poor during the last three months. J. D. H.

Annual School Elections.

The new law provides that the school elections in town districts shall be held by the judges of last municipal cleo tion; that they shall open the polls at 9 o'clock; if any or all are absent at 10 o'clock, then at least 10 bystanders shall elect judges and they shall appoint two clerks; that the polls shall be kept open until sunset; that the returns shall be made to the county clerk and that he shall issue certificates to the two per sons receiving the highest number of votes and certify the rate of tax in the levying court; the Directors elected shall take the oath of office within five days after receiving their certificate of election and file it with the county clerk; that the law regulating state elections shall have no application and that Section 6262 of Mansfields Digest and the act of 1885 amending that Sec tion, are repealed. Thus it will be seen that the Board of Election Commission CTS have nothing to do with the election nor are there any official tickets or booths. Of course none but qualified voters can vote.
 In the country districts the election will be held under the old law, no change in the manner of conducting them having been made.

The heavy rains of the past week did great deal of damage through out the Arkansas River valley, From Fort Smith to the mouth oi the river come reports of high water and eminent danger to life and prop erty. Happily the worst is over so far as the upper valley is concerned, but the situation is not so cheerful for the lower valley by any means.
 At Dardanelie Tuesday the river was within five feet of the highest point reached last May. As conse- qnence some of the lower bottoms were flooded and the crops planted thereon seriously damaged. The north bank of the river about Nor ristown has caved considerably, talk ing in several feet of the track of the Dardanellc and Russellville rail road. The pontoon bridge was swung open in time to save it. Crossing the river is done by means of flat boat and is attended by many seri- ous difficulties. At this writing the water is receding and the indications are that rapid decline will take place in the next A hours.
 The Illinois bayou has been quite full, and some farms have been sub merged, but the damage incurred is quite insignificant compared with that of last year.
 Undoubtedly many crops along the river, the bayou and other streams, will have to be replanted, but fortunately there is time enough to insure good returns with favora- ble conditions from now on.

Bethany District Notes.

Health in our community is generally good Farmers have used their best energies to get crops planted and have succeeded very we'll. Some have had to replant their corn. . The river is on highbut we hope the worst is over ~ Wheat and oats look promising. Our school in District 45 is progressing fine | ", doing good work. The oratorical contest came off Friday night and was certainly a treat to the large and appre- ciative audience. There were six of the contestants and all rendered their pieces in manner highly creditable to them- selves and to the great delight of parents and friends. The first on the program.
 was "The Black Horse and his Rider" by
 Bob Henry. Mr. Henry seemed as much
 at ease on the stage as if he had been
 reared there and had never done any thing else. He aroused qnite an admira- tion for the black horse and his rider.
 Then came "The grandeur of the Ocean"
 by John J. Estes. Mir. Estes delivered his piece well and made favorable im-
 preston on the audience. Next came "The Fairy Belle's Warning" by Miss
 Maggie Bell. Miss Maggie has queen
 ly appearance and perfect ease and grace of movement. She won the attention of ueT HtaTeTs, auu UOl OHll biidJ DuL JuStiV
 won the first honors of the night. The
 brown-eyed beauty of the evening, Miss
 Nora Withiss, rendered in her bewitch-
 ing manner the s'The Martyred Mother"
 Miss Nora was in her best spirits, and
 when she had finished applause after ap- plause went up in her praise. Next came Miss Laura Ferguson with "rhe drunkard's Story.n There was not
 heart in the audience untouched by her appeals. Her gestures were ideals of beauty, and she was we'll rewarded by the judges giving her second honor of the night. The last on the program was
 Melville Oates, whose subject was "Water." MT. Oates handled his sub- ject well and while it was not one to win an audience, yet he showed that he possessed the elements of great orator. At the close beautiful medal was awarded to Miss Maggie Bell by Prof. T. D. Brooks. So we say to teacher and pupils onward and upward. NC.

Correspondence of THE DEMOCRAT.
 Farmers have been very busy the past week planting their cotton. Most all are done. Some who planted early will have to replant. Oats are looking tolerably well. ~ Not much wheat in this section, but what there is has fine prospect for good crop. Fruit crop is considerably short, especially peaches. Think we will get good crop of black berries . Dr. Rye and H. Smith were not very successful with their fish net. Hope they will not become discouraged, but try, try again.. Robt. Wakefield is on the sick list, but we are glad to note that he is improving some. .... Miss Addie Youughlood, of Russellville, is the guest of MT. c. c. Loves family. ..... Mrs. D. c. Brownie of Knoxville, is here visiting relatives and friends.
 Our debating society have agreed to meet only once month for short time. The boys have improved their oratorical tall ent since they organized the society, and we hope they will not neglect their meeting, but carry on the society, and there can be a great deal of good derived from it. Y. K.
