1t has been many years since Sheridan
Knowles play, The Hunchback, was
last given in this city, though 1t has
been done here many times. 1t was a
favorite play of the old stock company
at the Theater in the old days when
Annie Adams was leading lady. and it
Is said that she made charming Julia.
JuliaDean also appeared in this role and
| in later years It was done by Adelaid
| Nelson and Charlotte Thompson. 1t
was in this play that David Mckenzie
made an immense hit as Master Walter
The Hunchback. and so to did John
Lindsay as Sir Thomas Clifford, while
| Phil Margetts made much of the small
role of Fathom. The play is not with
out much int rest in the hands OF
good company, but it cannot be said
that the one supporting Miss Waldorf
last night at the Theater was even up
to the average in this piece, barring,
perhaps. Mr.. VIM. McVay and Mrs.
| Ada Dow Currier. 1t was most exas-
perating to have the interest aroused
| by one of Miss Waldof's capabilities.
rudely dissipated by the wooden"
abilities of the leading support. Miss
Waldorf made charming Julia. She
has an expressive face with a forehead
denoting Intelligence and a dignifed
bearing that suits her well. Her train
ing has been the same as that received
by Julia Marlowe. Her only trouble be-
ing that she speaks a slightly broken
English though this one becomes more
accustomed to after a time. She GER
tainly has enviable attachments and is
in line for future honors upon an en-
larged scale. The Sir Thomas Clifford
of Norval McGregor was without a re-
deeming feature and 1t Is regrettabe
that Miss Waldorf had not support of
quality nearer that of her own
VIM Mckay made a fairly good Hunch-
back. The attendance was only fair
but no doubt II was the inclemency of
the weather that affected II. Tonight
lngomar the Barbarian VIII be given
with Miss Waldorf as Parthenia, the
engagement closing with this perform
ance.
All along the line the most flattering
notices of Clay Clements ability ana
the excellent quality of his play, The
New Dominion, are received and II re-
ports prove half way true, a dramatic
treat is In store at the Theater during
the latter half of this week, including
Saturday matinee. The first perform
ance VIII be given on Thursday even
ing. May 10th.
Mr. II. S, Goddard's third song re-
citm OF pupils will he given at the
CONGREGATIONAL church this evening
beginning at s o'clock. The occasion
Is looked forward to with no small de-
gree Of interest, and Will no doubt be
a REPETITION OF Mr.. Goddard's success of
the past.

CIGARETTE HABIT.
Responsible for Large Per Cent. of Re
jections in the Army.
Correspondent Asheville Citizen)


Correspondent Asheville Citizen)
IT'S said that the President and See
rotary Alger are not pleased with the
lack Of progress in raising the volunteer
army Army officials protest that they
are not to blame i'll the matter. Here
is very strange thing, from the
standpoint of those who claim that Gig
arettes are mildly harmful at the worst.
The public press reports that physicians
who conducted the examinations for or
army say that outside the ranks of Gig
arctic smokers there are fewer rejec-
tons than were in the days Of the civil,
war, but among habitual cigarette users
the reflections are about 80 per cent.
DIR. Benjamin King. Of Philadelphia,
who acted as examining surgeon dur
ing the years of 1S61-1SG3 in the States
of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Indiana, says the average reflections dur
ing those years did not exceed 13 per
cent. He attributes the large increase
almost entirely to the cigarette habit.
We see from these figures from Il re-
liable source that our per cent. towards
deterioration since the civil war Is
very great. Most of the men who have
failed to pass the medical cxamina-
ton have weak hearts or lack the vi
tanty necessary to make good soldiers
IJr. King also says, 1.-THE examining
physicians with whom / have talked
have generally told me that the excess
of reflections is due to the large num-
Der of young men applying for enlist
ment who have become victims of the
cigarette habit

Things have been done No one will
think for moment in these war times

HAVEN & STOUT'S COTTON LET

New York. August Special l--
Cotton was depressed throughout the
early part Of the. week, principally upon
declining Liverpool markets and the
continent liquidation Of speculative hold
ers. The appearance of favorable
weather conditions in the States Wher
rain has 50 long prevailed was a lead
ing factor in this connection, and dis
heartened holders who had chung to The
idea that climatic Influences might IN
the end result in Il serious
determination and reduction OF
the yield. The trade and the specu
lative public in fact, continue to diSre
gard all information about the state OF
the crop and the prospective production
unless it is Of n favorable character. N
the end of the week one OF the pronlhl
cnt authorities puts out n report show
ing decrease of nearly ~ per cent
during August, but although Friday ;
market was steadier it seemed to be thu
result of the increasing caution Of tht
bears. which proceeds from the large
extent of the short interest in the New
York and ether markets. The back
wardncss of the crop, and the cOmpar;l-
lively limited stock, attracts attention
without having much tangible influence
upon prices. while it is also considered
likely that the South will he indisposcl
to sell at the present low range, ansI
thus render the movement more thajl
usually slow. While the trade is gener

heard that under existing circumstances

heavy short interest, any developments
of slightly favorable character might
result in at least temporary uptun

TRIBUTE TO JUDGE ALLEN.
His Fine Record at Iredell Court
Many Populists Will Vote For Him.
lStntesviIle Mascnt.l

Never has Iredell county come in
contact with more sOciable man, 4
more perfect gentleman or a more up
right. conscientious judge than Judge
Oliver II. Allen, who has just com
pleted our August term of the Superior
court. Without fuss or ostentation he
dispatched it as we'll as any of them.
His uniform courtesy to the officers OF
the court and his kind, considerlte
treatment of the great crowds Of people
who attended the first week of the term
have been frequently remarked upon to
us While he was thus kind and con
siderate, he was fearless in his rulings.
During the trial of n railroad case he
was heset to allow the railroad to 50
amend its pleadings as to raise Fed
eral question and get its case into the
Federal courts This was matter en-
tirely within, the discretion Of the judge.
and Judge Allen stood for the integrity
of the State courts and refused the mo-
ton. We are persuaded that many
men in Iredel county, who are not
Democrats, will see to it that their bal
lots for judges this fall contain the
name of Oliver II. Allen, Of Lenoir.

THE "BLACK VOMIT."
The Elizabeth City People Can't Stand
Any More Russellism.
&c. City Economist.)


Right on the heels of the rotten Re
publican convention, and before our
natural disnfectants had purified the
awful stink that pervaded the atmos-
pherc. there came another stink. The
notorious John II. Smth-Republica
superintendent Of the State Agricultural
Manure Pile, came along to hold n
Farmers Institute" to teach farmers
the art and mystery of farming. For
tunately nobody attended and accepted
the insult, and the John X. meeting
was n fasco. Under our experience of
the last week. if our town doesn't have
'black vomit," then we are all immunes.
When Russell sends another one Of his
pets down here, will he be decent enough
TO notify us, that we may stampede to
Nays Head and leave the town to the
"savages" and their white brothers.
