Baldwin-Rogers Company.

Beginning Monday evening next the Baldwin-Rogers company will play a weeks engagement at O'Brien's al popu- lar prices. The company carries its own orchestra and will come to Birmingham under most favorable auspices, being highly recommended wherever seen. The Columbia. S. C., State says:
 The Baldwin-Rogers Comedy com pany, who have been playing a three nights engagement in this city at popu- lar prices and to good houses consider ing the weather, gave a matinee per formance yesterday afternoon which was well attended, and last night presented the four-act drama entitled "The Ad- venturess' to a good house and one that was delighted with the performance The company has good talent among it, and notwithstanding the low price of admis- sion it will compare favorably with many who are charging full rates of ad- mission.
 Manager Cramer with characteristic generosity, has donated all of his DOT tion of yesterdays receipts to the poor relief fund, and this, taken in connec- ton with the generous action of the com pany, is but one illustration of the fact that no class of people in the world are more liberal than are those of the dra- matic profession.n

Why the Governor Refused to Interfere.
 Old Soldiers Reunion.
 Brundidge. April 24.-(Special Core spondence )-Governor Oates has refused to pardon Ben Warrick upon petition signed by hundreds of the best citizens of the county. He takes the ground that there is no precedent for a governor to pardon a man who makes his escape af- ter conviction and before the commence ment of the execution of the sentence. He therefore refuses to grant the prayer of the petition without discussing the details of the case.
 Tomorrow the soldiers reunion com mences. It is the first one that has ever been held in Brundidge Everybody hopes they may have a glorious good time

THINGS DRAMATIC.

The production of a dramatic version of Goethe's Faust" at the opera house tonight by the Lewis Morrison company will no doubt succeed in drawing forth a goodly attendance to that popular play house.
 Faust" the greatest conception of that master mind. Goethe, is destined to live through all time.>and dramatic rep resentations of it are always pleasurable and entertaining. There are quite number of different versions of this im- mortal poem; the one used by the Nor rison company is known as Bayle Der nard's, and differs from others in that there is vein of comedy running through it. It thus becomes more suit able for dramatic purposes, the light, airy scenes forming marked contrast to the weird and uncanny shadows of the others.
 The greatest feature of the Morrison production lies in the way in which it is mounted. Every scene of the five acts is carried complete by the company, and each is described as being appropriate and historically correct An unusually large number of calcium lights are en- ployed to render the different scenes eff fective, and mysterious electrical effects abound throughout the presentation. Of this latter medium it can be said that electricity plays almost as important a part as do any of the actors. One Of the mysterious effects introduced is that of the electric fire flies, which occurs dur ing the Brocken scene. At all points on the stage appear little sparks of light which are seen for a second and disap- pear only to be seen again in different place. The effect is described as being something out of the ordinary.
 It is said that the company is one that has been carefully selected, with regard to their fitness for the various roles entrusted to them, the minor ones being as well represented as the leading characters. This is a spirit in the man. agement to be commended. The part of Marguerite will be played by Miss Flor ence Roberts, who is said to be more than ordinarily clever, and the ideal heroine of Goethe's masterpiece. Others in the cast are Porter J. White, Edward Elsner, Edward Wade, L. J. Hall, A. D. Foudray Charles G. Taylor, Mrs. Nelson kneass, Miss Aileen Bertelle and Miss Lillian Armbyl
 The management also claim they have taken particular pains to have the incl dental music appropriate, and the male quartette are first-class in every partic- ular, it is said.

Mississinnf Democrats.

JACKSON, Miss, Aug. THE con-
vention was called to order at 1910
today by Chairman Booth who sug-
gested Mr.. Longstreet, of Grenada, for
temporary chairman. He was elected
by reclamation. 1t was moved that
the chair appoint a. committee Of seven
on credentials to consider the contest
from Marion county Carried. Pend
ing the report of this committee the
convention took a recess till 2:30.
When the convention reassembled at
2:30 p. M, Senator j. u. George was
chosen permanent chairman amid
great enthusiasm. The convention
then went to work upon the ticket
without further delay. Hon ]. H.
McLaurin was unanimously nominated
for governor. The first ballot for the
lieutenant governorhip resulted in
the nomination of Hon. J. H. Jones. J.
l.. Powers was nominated for secre-
tary of state; Colorel w. D. Holder
for auditor and A. Q. May for treas
urer, after which a. recess until 9 p. m.
was taken. 1t is doubtful if the re-
port of the committee on resolutions
will be reached tonight.
At the evening session there was a
fight on the nomination for attorney
general. Seven ballots were taken
without result.
incorporated in the report of the
committee on resolutions were the

ANOTHER MYSTERY SOLVED.
a Hotel Clerk Claims to Identif.
Holmes Companions.

CHICAGO, Aug. IF. B. Little.
night clerk of the Grand hotel. thinks
he has solved the mystery of Holmes
female companion from st. Louis to
Toronto when the Pitzel children
were taken to the Canadian city. Mr..
Little has identified pictures of Mrs.
Pitzel as the woman who, with
Holmes and the two little girls. occu-
pied two rooms at the West End hotel
on the Sth of last October. At that
time Little was night clerk at the
West End hotel. He says that Holmes,
d woman of about 3S and two little
girls entered the hotel and Holmes
asked for two rooms, the doors of one
of which were to be tightly locked
during his stay. The two little girls
were kept close prisoners and when
ever they escaped into the hallway
they were dragged back into the room,
as though their very existence should
be kept a secret.
Little recognized the Pitze1 children
from Photographs, but it was not until
he had studied a number of pictures
that he positively identified Holmes
When shown a number of pictures of
the woman in the case he pointed to the
one of Mrs. Pitzel and said: That is
the woman who was at the hotel last
fall"
If Little is ret mistaken in his iden-
LITIGATION. the mysterious Hatch" is
Holmes, after all.

THE ELEVENTH CENSUS,
Carroll ID. Wright's Report Places
the Cost ut SlO.531142

WASHINGTON. Aug. 7-Carrol D..
Wright, United States commissioner of
labor. has forwarded to the secretary of
the interior his report on the operations
of the eleventh census during the fiscal
year 1S94-5.
The report places the total cost of the
census up to date at so, 531, 142 The APP
preparation now available will be enough
to finish all the work except the final
printing and binding. The chief cause of
delay has been the population schedule
of the population volume. Great care has
been exercised to eliminate errors. The
only other parts remaining incomplete
are the vital statistics, part of the COM
pendulum and the second edition of the alb
stract and the statistical atlas
Mr.. Wright hopes that the whole work
of the census may be completed and given
to the public before the end of the pres
ent calendar year.
Seven volumes of the report, giving the
names of the veterans of the war, their
rank, service and present address, have
been turned over to the pension office.
These returns will be of great value to
soldiers wishing to complete their claims.
