A Street Episode.

There was a preoccupied look upon the
messenger boys face as he slowly cross.
ed South Water street, unconsc iously
crumpling the message he carried in his
stubby, freckled hand. He paused when
he reached Jenkins avenue and carefully
drew from his pocket q tattered copy OF
" Roaring Dick" and an .antequated clasp
knife with four inch blade.
For moment he studied the crude H.
lustration upon the title page OF his dime
novel intently and then TO the surprise OF
the reporter, he graspsd his rusty knife
hrmly in his hand and lunged savagely
at displaced brick in the side of the
building.
Fast and furious became the play.
Passes and counter passes followed each
other in rapid succession, till finally ex-
hausted with his exertions, he stopped.
Then, as he pocketed his knife, he slow
ly murmured, "Dare's anooer good chance
gone. Me hands too short TO dc de
tapered finger act and now suppose I
must give up de idee of followin' in de
footsteps OF Roarin' Dick, and take up me
old round OF monotous work.

AFine Attraction.

We take pleasure in announc-
ing to our theatre>goers that on
Monday night, November 18th,
the celebrated actress Miss Ag-
mes Wallace Villa will appear at
Rea's Opera House in Frank
Harvey's great play THE World
Against Her" This is one of
the strongest attractions now on
the road and Manager Rea is to
be congratulated on securing it
for his house. This play appear
ed at Forepaugh's Theatre in
Philadelphia last week and the
Inquirer says of it as follows
The perennial favorite THE
World Against Her began its
annual visit to this city yesterday
afternoon at Forepaughs Family
Theatre to a large and apparent
ly satisfied audience, if applause
and attention are any criterians.
The drama which is undoubtedly
the best from the pen of that
brilliant writer, Frank Harvey,is
also the most successful of his
stage works. 1t is always sure of
cordial welcome at the hands of
a Forepaugh audience, and yes
terday was no exception to the
general rule. Telling a story of
a woman who braves the world
for the sake Of right, with pa
thetic meaning tinged with I'M
looked for surprises, it was not
singular that the play scored still
another triumph to its already
large list. It is no eXageration
to state that the drama is better
presented than it has ever been
previously. All the subtle-nean-
ing of the lines, all the humor,
and indeed, every scent and sit
uation were acted III a manner
deserving of praise. The char
acters are played by well>bal-
anced company, including Ag,
mes Wallace Villa, who assumed
the part of the Wronged Madge
Carlton with such rare tenders
ness as to cause men and women
alike to shed tears over the woes
of the heroine. In fact, the en-
tire performance was entitled to
commentator.

odd you ever know what has

business man. who has just re-
turned from a trip to the Atlanta
Exposition. mo? Well neither

weeks ago. In that town found
an old man who makes a BUSH
ness of quietly gathering in all
the Confederate bank notes he
can find. You know the stuf
was issued by the ton during the
war, and there is any quantity OF
it still floating around. When
the old man gets a big bundle OF
paper he sends it to Edison, the
inventor, who pays good price
for it. Edison uses it to make
carbon for incandescent lamps.
The paper upon which the Con
federate notes were engraved was
made Of the pulp of sea grass
This branch of the paper making
industry has since become dead
art. Sea grass paper, when
chemically treated by Edison
has been found to make the best
sort of carbon for incandescen1
lights. and SO there is always E
