Confederate Veterans Reunion.

Charleston. S. c., April 21.-The annual

excursion around the harbor and at night

DR.. LAMAR LAST NIGHT
Thrilled Large Audience-The Distinguished
Preacher TO Remain Three
Nights Longer.

DR.. A. W. Lamar, the distinguished
author, preacher and lecturer, greatly
charmed his large audience al the South
side Baptist church last night by his
thrilling lecture on Ben Hur or Tale
of the Christ" Over sixty immense and
beautifully colored pictures were thrown
by the stereopticon and the characters
seemed to live before the audience. The
audience was thrilled by the exciting
chariot race and moved to tears by the
meeting Of the Christ and the lepers and
the healing of the latter.
The pastor announced he had prevailed
on Dr. Lamar to remain over and give
his three lectures on the Pilgrims Prog
ress" tonight, Thursday night and Friday
night. These great pictures were made
in England especially for Dr. Lamar and
are even superior to those of Ben Hur."
There will also be given beautiful hymns,
illustrated by dissolvng views. No
charge for admission will be made, but
each is requested to make silver offer
ing at the door.

A Delightful Entertainment.

The entertainment given in Bessener
last evening for the Catholic church was
a grand success. Rebie hall was crowded
with stylish and apprecative audience
such as Bessemer can always turn out
The curtain was raised at 8:15, and for
fully two hours the attention of the ia
dience was riveted by brilliant musical
numbers and the happy conceits of the
well-known farce, "a Regular Fix" Biz
mingham musicians were represented by
Mrs. H. H. Sinnige, Miss Alice Fallon and
Professor Black, while Miss Ethel Cliff
ford brought down the house by the
gracefulness of her Spanish dance.
The touching ballad of "Robin Adair
was beautifully rendered by Miss Hattie
Macarthur, who never fails to touch the
hearts as we'll as the ears of her audience
The farce was rendered in a very pleas
ing manner by the whole caste; still the
Importance of their parts marked out for
special mention the acting of Mr.. John E.
Brady and Mr.. "A. j.. Krebs. The ladies
showed great talent, and while Miss
Bonnie Rabcock had a minor part she
showed wonderful talent and her his
trionic ability undoubtedly opens up a
wide vista of success Miss Jenkins, Mrs.
Brady and Miss Brady rendered their
parts very successfully. -
Due credit must be given to Mr. Fl. Nc
Mutt, who occupied the important posi-
ton of stage manager and general direc-
tor. Z

delegates.
\ Richard B. Comstoek Miles McNamee,
Mayor George w. Greene of Woonsocket
and Jesse H. Metcalf were elected dele
gats to the national convention. All but
Mayor Greene are of this city. The COM
Frraittee on resolutions reported the follow
ing platform, which was unanimously
adopted:
The democratic party of Rhode Island
cordially approves and indorses the able
and efficient administration of Grover
Cleveland. We especially commend the
administration for its firmness and ability
in maintaining, unaided by the congress
of the United States the credit of the
nation.
1t is vital to the interests of our pec7sle
that there should be no departure from
the gold standard, to which all money.
whether gold, silver or paper, should con-
form, and we are opposed to the free coin
age of silver until at least four of the
great powers of the western world shall
come to an international agreement es-
tablishing the ratio at which gold and
silver shall be admitted to mntage.
We affirm our belief In the maintenance
OF the Monroe doctrine as interpreted by
our president. We believe that the Will
son bill was a step In the right direction
and should be given a fair test. We do
not believe in reciprocity, as 1t is imprae-
ticable and unnecessary and tends to
create hostilities against US. We con-
graduate the country that under the Will
son tariff bill our commerce is rapidly in
creasing, as evidenced by the reports on
exports of agricultural implements, cot
ton manufactures. India rubber goods,
machinery. iron, steel, leather and oils
As nobly representing these principles
we commend to the delegates here chosen
and to the Chicago convention one who
will make an ideal candidate and an ideal
president-William E. Russell of Massa-
chusetts.

never attempteds by any actress on the
American stage.
The Ohio legislature has enacted law
prohibiting the ladies from wearing large
hats in the theater. The ladies' Of Blr-
mingham need no such restrictive legiS- :
lation.-they are law unto themselves,
and their own kindness of heart prevents
them from interfering with others pleas
ure. The other night at the theater a
South Highland belle entered, and above
her dark hair she wore a white hat as
big as a snow bank. Every man in the
audience shuddered with the fear that
the snowbank would come to anchor just
in front of him. But as soon as the
young lady took her seat she removed
her hat and placed 1t in her lap. If she
looked pretty with the hat on, she looked
angelic with it off. The classic contour
of her head was as perfect as that OF
a Greek goddess. A gentleman who sat
on a rear seat remarked to a friend: II
have always admired that young lady,
and now she has risen in my estimation
like the thermometer on a July day.
If a woman desires to lock beautiful IN
the eyes of man let her take off her hat
at the theater. On another occasion at
the theater a married lady took off her
hat and a lady sitting just behind leaned
over and thanked her. When one Wom-
an thanks another it Is certainly from a
deep sense of obligation.

Raised an Interesting Technicality

Every schoolboy knows that the eye Of
the law is SO far color blind that two blacks
sometimes make white for it. But the
ewoastle-under-Lyme milkman, who has
been unsuocessfully appealing from his
native petty sessions to the queens bench,
preferred to try new way of getting on
the laws color blind side. He did not
deny that his milk was adulterated-not
he But he pointed out that it was
Sunday on which he sold it, and that there
was law Of George II making such sale
illegal Oh that day, except in the early
morning and after 4 O'Clock. Conse-
quently there had been no legal sale at all,
and therefore he had not sold adulterated
milk Perhaps 1t is as we'll that his point
was not upheld. 1t might have been the
thin end of the wedge, and presently we
should have had burglar breaking into
our house and shooting us, and then es-
gaping the gallows on the ground that, as
his entry had been burglarious, he was not
legally there at all, and SO could plead an
alibi against the capital charge. Pail

Very often Nature needs only little
help to get over an obstruction. When
boom Of logs is floating down river,
all goes we'll until one single log strikes
something and sticks. Then there's a
"jam and trouble. 1t is just so in
the progress of food through the diges-
tive organs Everything goes we'll till
something sticks. Then the process of
digestion stops. That's indigestion. I'm
less the impeachment is removed, poison
Gus putrid matter begins to accumulate.
There's a "jam - constipation, and
trouble. Sick headache, biliousness
sleeplessness, vertigo, heartburn, loss of
appetite-these are some of the symp-
toms. Just little help at the appear
ance of the first one would end the
trouble. Nature is hard worker, but
she needs assistance if too much be put
upon her.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets offer the
best and simplest method for furnishing
this assistance. They are prompt and
very effective in their action but they
are not strong nor severe. They cause
no violent wrench of the system. They
go right to the &C. log" that is fast and
loosen it. Nature does the rest BY and
by, with little care in dieting, Nature
will do it all That's one great advant-
age of the Pleasant Pellets over the
many strongly cathartic pills-you do
not become slave to their use. They
really cure the trouble they are meant
to cure. Even the worst kind of chronic
constipation disappears with their use.
CAUTION.-Some designing dealers do not
permit their customers to have DR.. Pierce's Pei
lets because inferior pills afford greater profits
Such dealers are short sighted They overlook
the fact that next time you will go where you
are supplied with what you ask for.

Her gold hair rough, her rebel garment wide,
Who sleeps, with all that luck and life denied
Camped round and dreams how seward and

Blue over Devon farms the smoke rings rest,
And sheep and lambs ascend the lit hillside
Dear, of your charity, speak low, step soft,
Pray for sinner. PlanetlilSe and still,
Best hearts Of all are sometimes set aloft
Only to see and pass, nor yet deplore
Even wrong itself, crowned wrong inscrutable,
Which cannot have been forevermore.
