Their Second Annual
Ball a Grand Sue
cess.
n Good Attendance Present.
CoUrteaay-M Morgan Comedy Compan,
40 Appear at He'd Jacket All
Next Week.

The Lau-ium cornet hand made il:
6rst attempt at large ball last evening
when they gave their second annual
party at the Light Guard Armory and to
say that il was huge success in every
way rs but putting il mildly. The at
tendance was good, but the floor was not
Gro wded and the number OF dances was
aust enough TO have good time without
being crowded and suffering any incon.
vienence on that account.
The music furnished by the band was
firstclass in every particular and showed
the result OF much hard work on thepart
OF the individual members OF the organi-
zation and their efficient leader, Mr..
John Williams and the credit falls alike
on all.
4 program OF twenty-tour dances was
played, besides eight extras and it was
an early hour this morning when the
merry dancers we're satisfied TO stop and
Home, Sweet Home" was danced. Re
freshments were served during the even
ing by the members of the band.
Early in the evening the grand
march, led by Prompter Dennis Harring-
ton, took place and the dancers went
through many intricate figures to the
stirring strains of one OF SOusa's best
marches.
Taken all IN all the parry was a social
and financial success and those who at
tended will anxiously await the an
nouncement OF the bands next party.
Too much credit cannot be given Mana

TO His Excellency Gov. w. II. Ellcrbc:
Many OF the newspapers Of the State
arc charging Senator Tillman with
receiving Dlsponsary rebates, and
Senator Tillman having in hia recent
letter made a formal demand upon
your ttxccllcncy for an Immediate :"
investigation, now, we, as Reformers,
c,li upon you to order an Immediate
investigation. II after IL fair and inn
partial trial Mr.. Tillman is found
guilty let him bear the 0dium and
shame that will necessarily follow. If
on the other hand he is adiudgcd not
guilty let the same newspapers who
have made the charges do Senator
Tillman justice by correcting their
charges, and proclaiming him an in
noccnt man, severely prosecuted. This
we believe the press throughout the
State will do.
