Opera House Crowded to Hear the POpu-
lar Minstrels.
After weeks rehearsal, Hi Henry'S
MinstreIs gave their initial performance
in the opera house last Saturday evening
to the largest Of the large audiences
which have heretofore greeted him.
The stage setting of the first part was
entirely new, and added an elaborate ef-
feet to the entertainment. The chorus
sat in a semi-circle, before an artis-
tic entrance way, on either side OF the
steps Of which, were placed statues en-
blematic of music and song The or
chestra was arranged in pleasing man.
ner back Of the chorus. Mr.. j. Albert
Gates occupied the center, with McMa-
han, King and Arthur Deming on the
ends. The vocal solos rendered by
Messrs. Kelcher, Michaelis and Leighton
were well executed despite the fact that
this was their first appearance on the
stage this season, and were heartily sp-
plauded by the audience.
The chrOmOgraph pictures were good.
Anyone who doubts for an instant that
h e American people, are not pat
riOtic would have been convinced
otherwise. As the portraits OF
some of the great men of America ap-
peared on the screen, the house rang
with applauIe, and when President
McKinley's was shown, it was cheered
to the echo.
Fantasia" corn6t solo rendered by
Mr.EHi Henry was well executed and
and heartily encOred. After the response
he was presented with beautiful fiOral
tribute. He was accompanied during
his solo by his band.
Mr.. Arthur Deming simply brought
down the house with his comic songs and
witty sayings, causing the audience tt
laugh until their sides ached.
The entertainment was concluded
with the laughable farce, ''On to Klon-
dyke" MeSsrs. King and Deming were
the fun-makers in this play.
Mr.. Henry can justly feel proud of his
company, as they are an orderly set OF
gentlemen, and we hope that they will
be with us again in the near future.

The parade of Iii Henry, Saturday noon
started from his car on the railroad track
at the Big -Four depot, and after an
hours parade, returned there. The band
was made up of twenty-fOur pieces, and
was led by Mr. Henry in person. The
music rendered was almost entirely in
the shape of medleys and was well ex-
ecuted.
Rev. R. L. WaggOner preached the ser
mon in the park Sunday evening. The
attendance was good and the points of the
sermon were tactile and we'll taken. The
sermon was somewhat marred by the
presence Of several dogs in the park,
whose CANDLES took the attention OF the
younger part of the congregation. Would
it not be better 1t the dogs were left at
home?
On Sunday night, while Marshal Will
liams was out Of town, suspicious char
acters were seen upon the streets by his
deputy. The deputy followed them, and
prevented their breaking into Spicer's
blacksmith shop. The fellows evidently
became frightened, for, after the depar-
ture of two freight trains about 400 am.
they were not seen, and it is supposed
that they left on these.

MARRIAGES IN PURITAN DAYS.
Early RecOllectiOns of How These CeremO.
nies Were Performed.

Early RecOllectiOns of How These CeremO-
nies Were Performed.
John Miller Mckee, probably the
Oldest newspaper man in the State,
having edited some of the early papers
OF Tennessee in ante.bellum days, oc-
casionally contributes to the public
journals of to day readable recollec.
tions of the past. His latest on this
line appears in the Cumberland Pres
byterian of this week, and he tells en-.
tertainingly how marriages were con-
Quoted in Puritan days. Mckee says:
"The brides of old time Puritan days
were seldom married in church, often
in the new house that was destined to
be their home, and you may believe it
was generally bleak enough to give an
almost funeral aspect to the affair. The
wedding gown was first displayed in
public at meetings Indeed, there was
no other place where the bride could
surely count upon finding all her
friends together, The bride and groom
and bridal party opened the show by
proudly walking in procession thro'
the narrow streets to the meeting house
on the Sabbath following the marriage.
In Larned's History Of Windham
County, Conn, is description of such
an amusing scene in Brooklyn, Conn.
Further public notice was drawn to the
bride by allowing her to choose the
text for the sermon preached on the
fret Sunday of the coming out of the
newly married couple. Much ingenuity
was exercised in finding appropriate
and sometimes startling Bible texts for
these wedding sermons. The instances
are well known of the marriage of
Person Smiths two. daughters, one of
whom selected the text. Mary hath
chosen that good part while the
daughter Abbie, who married John
Adams, decided the text, John came
neither eating nor drinking, and they
say he hath devil.
Mary chose minister for her life
partner, aud he was very acceptable to
her father and mother. The sermon
on her wedding day was preached for
delectation by her father, but he would
not preach for Abbie, because she was
going to throw herself away on a
country squire as 'briefess lawyer
was then designated contemptuously.
But Abbie know better, as zen. Taylor
said years afterward of his daughter
who married JEFF Davis, and so she
married John Adams. History is silent
as to what became of Mary and her
husband, but it tells that Abbie be-
came the wife Of signer of the Decla.
tion of independence and of Presi.
dent of the United States, and the
mother of a son who became Presi-
dent"

Paper.
An Ohio contemporary having
thoughtlessly remarked that it takes
money to run a newspaper, the editor
of the Saguache Colo Herald rolls
up his sleeves, spits on his hands and
promptly nails the lie as follows:
ut doesn't take money to run
newspaper; it can be run without
money. 1t Is charitable institution,
a begging concern, q highway robber,
B'Godfrey. The newspaper is the child
of the air, creature of dream. 1t

kind words are the medium of ex.
change that do the business for the
editor-kind words and church social
tickets. When you see an editor with
money, watch him. He'll be paying
bills and disgracing his profession.
Never give money to an editor. Make
him trade it out. He likes to swap.
Then when you die, after having stood
around for years and sneered at the
editor and his little jim crow paper,
be sure and have your wife send in for
three extra copies by one Of your weep.
ing children, and when she reads the
generous and touching notice about
you, forewarn her to neglect to send
fifteen cents to the editor. 1t would
verwhelm him."
Money is corrupting thing. The
editor knows it, and what he wants is
heartfelt thanks. Then he can thank
the printers and then they can thank
their grocers. Take your job work to
the job Office and then come and ask
for half rates for church notices.
"The Lord loves the cheerful giver.
He'll take care of all the editors. Don't
worry about the editor. He has q
charter from the State to act as a door
