seen the productions of less perfect opera

jectoscope is certainly source of instruc-

previously seen it.

The Alliance Rally.
The Columbia Register had the date of
President Wilborn's Alliance rally fixed
on the 18th of March, and The State had
it the 10th. Noticing the discrepancy,
The ENQUIRER referred to the calendar
and found that the 18th was on Sunday,
and the 10th on Wednesday. According
", as between the two dates, it was cacu-
lated that the 10th was most likely to be
correct, and that was used. But Presi-
dent Wilborn has sent US a message to
the effect that both dates, as published,
were wrong. He had furnished the copy
to the daily papers and the date of the
rally was plainly written "12th," which
comes on Saturday. Saturday, March IL,
therefore, is the day upon which Presl-
dent Wiborn desires the sub-Alliances OF
the state to assemble at their respective
places of meeting and discuss the situa-
ton.
He Is In Jail.
Hampton Mobley, the Negro who at
tackled Mr.. and Mrs. ]. ]. White in their
house at Leslie station, last week, is now
in the county Jail. He tried to compro-
mise the matter through messengers To
the Leslie people; but they would not
compromise, and deeming it advisable to
move further away, he went over to Lam
caster, where he was arrested by Sheriff
Clyburn. Sheriff Logan went down to
Lancaster last Friday and brought him
to Yorkville. He did not have very
much to say but until he got safely past
Leslie station, he was scared Negro"
There were quite a number of angry
people at the station when the train went
by; but they made no demonstration
whatever, as they had made up their
minds that the law should take its course.
Mobley's offense, taking all the circum-
stances into consideration, was aggrava-
ting in the extreme, and the Leslie people
are to be congratulated upon their having
been able to restrain themselves.
