For The Caucasisn.l
AINEOLA, N. c., NOV. 0.-The
cause of reform is growing all the
time. 1 have just returned from
q trip through this and Pamlico
counties. On the 9th inst. l lef.
home On route to the County Allianc,
which met at Aurora. We spoke for
about one hour about the necessity
Of the free coinage of silver, l6 to
L, and the abolition Of national
banks, and showed. we believe, to
the satisfaction Of all present, the
utter impOssibility of our ever secur-
ing the above reforms through the
Democratic party. There wore some
present who . year ago we're the
nest bitter Democratic partisans-
who, . year ago, would not listen to
a Populist speak. They paid the
strictest attention to what We said
and after the speech, eomplimsnted it,
We haye many good and noble
workers at Edwards Mill. The
County Alliance met at the hall of
Aurora Sub-Alliance. We had a
good meeting. and much business
wac transacted.
We spoke also In Pamlico county
at Kershaw, to q crowded house OF
enthusiastic reformers, with a very
small sprinkling of because my
daddy was Democrat" One left
before We closed because he could
not stand sound doctrine. But this
class is ''few and far between" We
showed the record Of the two old
parties from 1873 up to the present,
and all went home declaring that it
was we'll for them to have heard
what was said.
Returning home We found that
some sneak had burned up the barn
and large stock house of Mr.. R. F.
Hodges, of Mineola; several barrels
Of corn. a lot of fodder, several
thousand pounds of hay, thirty OF
forty bushels of peas-a total loss
of about 5000. The miscreant who
fred the house opened the stable
door and turned out some mules.
A COW, ono hog. and all the poultry
were burned.
God bless you in your grand work
for the masses. May you live long
to WELD the pen in the interest OF
humanity. The CAUCASIAN is doing
the work. All of us endorse what
DR.. Thompson said at Cary. We see
the truthfulness of his remarks every
day Of our lives. We want Walter
Henry, W. b. Kitchin and Senator
Butler, one of the three to come to
our county, and the people are anx-
ious to hear them.

The Little Victims Story.

A LIGHT reporter called on little
Lula Mitchell, the 7-year-old white
child on whom the rape by an un-
known white man, was said tc
have been made few nights
ago, I as mentioned in Fri
days LIGHT. She lives with her
mother in two.story brick house
on Houston street, just off Cam.
aron street, and is a bright little
fiaxen haired child, small for her
age.
She says the assault was COM
mitted during the night, the vii.

her in his bed before she awoke
He put a handkerchief in her
mouth to prevent her from scream.
ing.
The strange part of the matter is
that the case was not reported to
the officers for several days, or I'M
til the child became i'll, and the
attendance Of a physician was re,
quired.
DIR. Menger, after close exami-
nation, has found no traces of
bruises or laceration on the child
and the story Of assault is thought
to be very doubtful.

A WOMAN STABBED.
In interpreting for Her Sons Safety
Receives the Blow.


Antonio Reyes, a young Mexican
was placed in the city jail yester-
day afternoon by Officers Parker
and Wosnig, on charge OF cutting
with a pocketknife.
Reyes was fighting with young
Mexican out on the Rock Quarry
road, near the Alamo Cement fac
tory, where the Mexican keeps q
market garden with his brother
and mother. The quarrel first be-
gan about a debt of 70 cents, which
the boy claimed Reyes owed, and
words led to blows and Reyes
drew a pocketknife. AS he was in
in the act Of striking, the mother
of the youth ran in between them
and received a stab in the right
forearm, which penetrated quite
deeply. The youth came to the
rescue OF his mother with rocks, one
of which he threw striking Reyes
on the forehead and another in the
mouth, while third knocked him
down. 1.,,
After the arrest of Reyes the
other participants came to the
plaza market in their wagon and
DIR. Menger attended the womans
injuries.
Then they took up their position
on the market and the sale OF vege-
tables went merrily on.

REHEARsING PLAYS.

To the average theatrical audi
ence there are few persons who
realize the infinite pains and the
almost exhaustlng drill that pre-.
cede public performance Of
play. No doubt most of the en-
joyers Of drama we'll presented
imagine that the actors who show
cleverness Of conception and SYM
pathy of action are simply act
ing upon the lines of their own
thought. In fact perhaps, the popu-
lar idea may be that the persona
tions Of the hero, the heroine, the
good man, the william, the maker
Of fun, and all others concerned
in stage story study their parts
individually and come together
for rehearsal with the easy task Of
joining efforts naturally into a
pleasing picture. Nothing further
from the facts could be conceived.
The handsome, personable, en-
gaging leading man in too many
cases is so ill equipped mentally
that his merely physical gifts
would go for little IL he were left
to his own dramatic devices. The
beautiful and charming woman
who plays upon the susceptible
ties OF an audience would frequent
ly be bereft of much Of her charm
unless she had beeupatiently SCH
ooled in the arts of her part by the
master mind Of the rehearsal. The
actor who plays the good man
would really be very bad at times
unless coached in his business.
The villain might, IL left wholly
to himself, really run in opposi-
ton to the comedian, and that
amusing worthy, possibly unless
judiciously. handled, might turn
drama into farce itself.
To realize the extent to which
the play depends upon a CONTROL
ing and forming influence one
must see rehearsal after rehearsal
OF play after play. But just as
there are differences in the con-
duct of all other theatrical
methods, so also do those who re-
hearse or "realize" plays differ In
their manner of work. One will
begin at the beginning and per-
severe with a company until the
end is reached, going laboriously
through a play, act by act, until
good temper disappears and ex-
haustion supervenes and in the
minds of the actors who have la.
bored to master merely the words
of their parts there is perfect
tumble in which everything is in
definite and there is no beginning
or end. But, Of course, labor ac-
complishes wonders, and finally
out Of the chaos reiteration brings
form and order.

ECHOES FROM WEST END.

One week ago "Echoes From
West End" failed to "pass" under
the lynx-eyed scrutiny Of the lit
erary art critic of the LIGHT, and
as there is no appeal from so high
an authority, there is nothing to do
but for Echoes" to try to remem.
Der some of the items that were
then furnished and withheld from
an anxious world. To certainty
the return of Mrs. Hutchinson from
Chicago, the getting home OF Mr..
b. G, Rely and family from Vir-
ginia, the occupation of the Gaus
place by a high bank official and
family from Terrell, and of DIR.
Whitaker and family from Ell
mendorf, of the Kennedy place,
were mentioned. i am not so GER
tain whether or not It could have
mentioned the departure of Mr..
and Mrs. Mount, the parents Of
Mrs. DIR. Moore, for Montana; but
these good people have departed to
be gone for several months.
1t was rumored that there would
be a wedding at the Protestant
Orphans Home this morning, but
"Echoes" could not state this for a
certainty, nor could it have been
one of the orphans.
While coming to the city yester.
day, one could see wagonloads of
concrete and cement going towards
our healthy suburb; it is probable
that these materials are intended
for Lake View, where the home for
the Divine Sisters OF Providence is
now being erected, work having
commenced Oh their home some
three weeks ago.
"Echoes" has no authentic state
ment of the increased amount of
scholars in Prof. Peacock's Boys
school, nor of the West End
Female College and the laudable
fact remains that our present
school board after giving our small
school a rest and getting a better
building (of Mr.. DowdelD, has
again asked Mr.. O'Neil to furnish
more school benches for that grow
ing school, since he finished the
first amount under his contract.
At the st. Louis College there are
at present seventy-two regular
boarders [scholars) besides day
scholars, and Mexico, will, after its
festivities-now taking place, in
crease the number Of boarders.
Serenaders with all kinds Of in
struments, from large harps to
small French harps, occasionally
give us a chance to "free air"
music.

Presbyterian church on Houston
