ENTERTAINMENT
By Severn Division U. r. K. of p.


On Tuesday evening, February 25th,
musical aud literary entertainment
will be given at the Opera House, under
the auspices of Severn Division No. 8,
Uniform Rank Knights of Pythias.
which will, without doubt, be one OF the
most enjoyable and pleasing that our
citizens have had the opportunity to
witness for some time. The entertain
ment will be furnished by home talent
and the ladies and gentlemen taking part
are we'll known to our citizens. They
have been studying hard for several
weeks, and propose to make this the best
one Of the many good entertainments
given under the auspices OF this we'll
known and popular organization. The
entertainment will be of character
that all, old, young, middle aged, church
members. nOn-church members, and all
Others who wish clean, entertaining and
wholesome enjoyment can patronlze. In
fact. one of the chief objects that Severn
Division has in view for giving this en-
tertainment to allow those of its mem
bers and friends who do not attend balls
an opportunity to enjoy themselves and
participate in the good things furnished
Dy this organization. The prices OF ad-
mission have been set at a low figure,
indeed, far below what would be deemed
a reasonable price of admissien to first
class entertainment Of this character
In this connection, we would say, the
entertainment cannot be judged by the
amount of the admission fee, but the
tickets are placed at the very low figures
of 35, 25, and Is cents in order that all
may have an opportunity to see what a
fine and able class of home talent Anna
polls can boast Of. The IS cent tickets
will entitIe the holder to areseryed seat,
if said holder will go to the City Drug
Store where they will be on sale, and
have his or her seat checked OF; the %
cent tickets are for general admission
and the Is cent tickets will admit the
bearer to the gallery. The two last
named classes of tickets can be secured
from Boesell's Jewelry Store, Church
street.-See large bills.

Is when they aw0ke in the morning
Furnaces aud heaters of all kinds were
taxed to their utmost To counleract the
cold, which WAS so intense that 1t was
almost impossible To heat an ordinary
sized room with comfort. The ther-
mometer here yesterday morning regis
tered six degrees four degrees lower
than on any previous time this winter
The highest it got during the day was
eleven degrees and by night had gone
down to eight degrees. This morning
at eight 0cIock 1t registered ten degrees
and at noon twenty degrees showing
that the cold wave is rapidly passing of.
Tomorrow the predictions are for fair
aud warmer weather. The severe cold
snap has almost paralyzed all out-of-d0or
business, and Oystermen have been com
pleteiy shut out from their vocation.
The severe cold has, no doubt, caused a
great deal of suffering among the water
men and those engaged IN tonging. Re
ports from all over the country show the
intensity Of the cold. AT Saratoga, n.

Tariff Talk That Hurts.

A higher duty imposed upon any
article that we grow or manufacture
cannot injurc that business. 1t is the
low tariff that hurts, that causes larger
imports of goods made by cheap labor,
that interferes with the earnings of our
own people, creates undue competition
and reduces values to n point that is un-
profitable to the producer. There was
no check to business in 1890 when the
Mckinley tariff was under discussion.

CHICAGO scientists have been
experimenting with the X Rays
upon groups of bacilli of various
deadly diseases, and believe that
the results already achieved will
be substantiated by further exper-
iments. They believe that the
rays will destroy the germs of
pneumonia, cholera, tuberculosis,
etc. A guinea pig has been in
oculated with the germs of tuber-
culosis, a dose that will kill in
four weeks-and the disease will
be allowed to progress half this
time. The mysterious rays will
then be applied and these men be-
lieve the pig will be restoted. 1t
