Durham, Nov. 16.-(Special)-The
Woodward Warren Company opened
their weeks engagement at the opera
house last night in "a Practical Joke"
This is delightful three act farce with
plenty of humor and snap about it, and
the troupe rendered it in a very attrac-
tive manner. Mr.. Woodward and Miss
Warren are both good actors, the sup
port IS good, and the stage settings and
costumes are magnificent. The large
crowd which was present last night will
doubtless insure large attendance

pleted. BY many it is thought the rock
bed is too narrow, it being twelve feet.
Many hunters are much annoyed in
this city by dog thieves. A number of
fine bird dogs have been stolen in the

evidence can be secured to convict the

Hanna. Every effort possible was made,
not only to make his own reelection
sure. but to defeat the possibility OF
election for Mr.. Hanna.
There will be no caucus. 1t is quite
possible that Mr.. Hanna and his lieu
tenants will change their minds ON the
point before the Legislature opens, and
insist that there shall be caucus. But
in this event the Foraker men will not
enter it. They do not see the need OF
going into it, and they will stay out.
There will be no caucus on either the
Senatorial matter or the organization or
the Legislature. The Foraker men will
know what they propose to do. The
Hanna men will have the fun of finding
out.

GIVE THE PEOPLE FACTS.
(Red Springs Citizen.l

But can North Carolina be redeemed
The Raleigh News and Observer is
showing by publishing facts and figures
every day that the fusion crowd is rob-
bing the State and giving offices to in
competent negroes, thus opening the
eyes of some $4,000 honest white men
who were led off last year by Butler
and his gang. The most of these voters
are in the country, and are now wait
ing for an opportunity to remedy the
evil they unconsciously wrought. Give
us in the country the condition of things
as they exist, and old North Carolina
will rally to the yell Of its leaders
when they cry out for the white man
and white metaP jointly.

GREAT DAMAGE.

Winnie and Several New Towns Practi-
caNy Obliterated
GALVESTON, Texas, Sept 15.-The
storm that inundated Port Arthur and
Sabine Pass also did considerable dam
age west Of the latter place, and 1T is
reported that towns, ranches and
farms for forty miles have been devas-
tated. South to Corpus Christi there
was great rise of waters, but it did
not extend near enough to this city
for the damage in that direction to be
ascertained as vet.
At Winnie every house but two is
said to have been blown down or
washed away. The new towns of
Webb, Sea breeze, Cheek and Fannette,
on the Gulf & Interstate, are said to
have been practically obi: terated, the
frail structures there affording little
resistance to the wind nd water.
The storm was felt far out on the
gulf, and the damage to ships and
shipping must have been considerable.
The tug Fannie arrived at Orange last
night with the survivors of the crews
of the tugs John P. Smith and Gull
lotte. Captains Green Moore and l..
Bettes owners of the vessels were
aboard the Smith and are missing, as
is the firemen, William Ratcliff, while
Dennis Moore, engineer and Herbert
smith, cook, are among the saved.
Both vessels were overwhelmed in the
pass.

HAzE1ToN, Pa, Sept 15.-All has
been quiet here since yesterday and
no further trouble is expected in this
immediate vicinity, but about the coal
mines, eighteen miles from here,
strikers are marching and additions
have been made to the list of strikers
at several points.
The strikers have been held in check
by che priests. At several turbulent
meetings, Which threatened to end in
bloodshed, the prelates went among
the excited foreigners, commanding
silence and forcing them back. They
warned the men that to destroy the
coal companies property would be
only to take food from their own
mouths by shutting off future employ
ment The priests, however, have no
plea of mercy for the sheriff's deputies
who shot the men at Latimer, and
some of them are active members of
the committee that is to push the mur-
der charges in court.

torneys deny the right of General
Goblin to enforce such an order, but
they admit that he has the power.

MISSOURI CROP REPORT.
Another Week of Drouth--Negetation
About Dried UD.


COLUMBIA, Mo-, Sept. 15-Another
week has been added to the long
drouth and in most sections Of the
state vegetation is about dried up Ex-
cept in few localities there has been
no rain Of any consequence for three
weeks, and in many counties, especial
ly III the sou thern sections, there has
been none since the first week IN Au-
gust.
in a few counties late corn is stN
green, but as Il rule the crop is so +
gone that the weather conditions frorl
now on will affect it but little, Gut
ting has been general during tho
week, and in some Of the southern
counties is ABOUT completed. Chinch
bugs are numerous in some counties,
and in places corn has been damaged
as much by them as by the drouth.
Cotton picking is in progress in
outheastern counties and the crop is
reported badly damaged by the
drouth.
Considerable wheat has been sown
in few of the north western counties
but elsewhere blowing and seeding
are at n standstill and little can be
done until there is a good rain.
Pastures have become drier and
water scarcer and many farmers are
obliged to feed, while in some locali-
ties water is hauled three and four
miles.
Apples and peaches have been badly
blistered and dried up on the trees
and in some districts the late peach
crop has been ruined. Winter apples
are falling badly in all sections and in
few of the southern counties young
orchards are dying:
