THE DISTRICT SCHOOL.

This novel entertainment, the rem
dition Of which was the most success
ful entertainment ever given IN At
lanta (here Monday night, promises
to be quite as big success in Raleigh.
Iii addition to those already announced
the following are among the ladies who
will take part: Mrs. Nellie Carver,
Miss Rosa Broughton, Miss Pattle
Mordecai, and Miss Bessie Bates.
Among other additions to the schol-
airs who viii appear in the "deestrico7
school is Mr. J. G.. S. Lumsden, who has
made arrangements to forget that he
is more than twelve years old. b
Things don't change much after all,
Men are only boys grown tall
The pedagogue, he of the rod and
the birch, who on this occasion will
teach the scholars how to parse, and
also impress upon them the rule Of
Solomon, is b. r. Montague, Esq. The
ladies drafted him into service, and like
a good soldier he obeys the call, and
will be better than Washington lrying's
school master, Ichabod Crane.
In addition to these attractions, Mr.
JaIAas N. Anderson, now Of Atlanta,
Ga, who is to spend Sunday in Raleigh,
writes that if possible ne will stay over
and take part in the entertainment.
De Wolf Hopper, Francis Wilson and
Jim Anderson are three great come
dians, but the greatest Of these, III the
estimation of a Raleigh audience, Is
Jim Anderson. He is easily the best
amateur in the country, and if he had
gone on the stage would have ranked
with Hopper and Wilson. This writer
has heard them all, and feels sure that
this estimate of Mr.. Anderson is not
that Of partial admirer.

END OF POLK MILLER's TOUR.
The Series of Entertainments VIII Net
the Monument Fund More Than
Seven Hundred Dollars.

Miss Bessie Worthington yesterday
sent to Mr.. j. q. Brown, treasurer of
the Vance monument fund, a check
for $46.08, the proceeds of the Polk
Miller entertainment at that place.
Tonight at Chapel Hill Polk Miller
gives his last entertainment in the
series for the benefit Of the monument.
And he will charm the students and
professors OF the University and the
inhabitants of the town with his ma
tural and spontaneous humor.
This is the last of his concerts, and
the State will bid Polk Miller re-
gretful farewell. For month he has
travelled over the commonwealth and
delighted the people with his enter
tainments that are unique, and of a
kind all to themselves. No other liv-
ing man knows the old plantation
darkey as Polk Miller knows him, and
no man more highly appreciates the
peculiar characteristics of that race
that almost passed out of the world.
One old negro with bent back and
gray head said: ''Massa Miller do
nachuIIy snatch a banjo wild. Hes
de only white man i ever heerd dat
could play de banjo just like old
time Niger"
The ladies of the different towns in
which he has appeared have had charge
of the entertainments, and the tour
has been remarkably successful. At
every point he has been greeted with
good houses, and the people have
turned out very we'll.
The net receipts from the tour to
date, with several other towns to hear
from. foot up S1.471-o7. Mr.. Miller
gets one-half of the net proceeds, with
a small additional sum for extra ex-
penses.
But the tour will net the monument
fund some seven hundred dollars or
more.
