CLAY CLEMENT.

There has probably not been an attraction seen in the theatre of this city in years that created q more fa- vorable impression than did MT. Clay Clement and his excellent com pany on their recent visit to this city, and it will no doubt be welcome news to those who are fond of a good play well played 10 learn that Mr. Clement will begin an engage ment Wednesday, Feb. 9 at the opera house when he will present his own Virginia story, "The New Domin- ion," in which he will be seen in his excellent characterization of Baron HoheDstauffen, a German gentleman upon whom theatre goers are be- slowing more than unusual attea- tion. The cast will be practically the same as seen before with the ex-

Capt. J. B. York. of the Bluff City Lumber Co., informs us that he has made an investigation among the employees of his mill at Anderson and finds that the mill men arein no way responsible for the late railroad ac- cidents at that place. The report that Mir, Culver, who was injured at that place last Saturday, received his injuries from mill men dropping cars down on him while he was mak- ing a coupling" also proves to be in correct. The mill men had nothing ing to do with it and were not near the track at the time.

 At the opera house Saturday night that excellent play by Frank Mayo of Mark Twains Missouri story, eePudd'nhead Wilson" will be told for thefrst time in this city with MT. Theodore Hamilton, one of the best character actors of the day, lin the title role. It is said of him that he gives to the part that quaint hum3r and pathetic sweetness and entrancing by-play that has caused eminent criticsto dub his characteri- zation as great. Pudd'nhead Wilson stands alone in dramtic constrnc- tion. We are told that there is noth- ing like it on the stage, nor has there been, therefore it will be hard to compare it with other plays. That it is unique in construction and out of the ordinary in it's dramatic con strLetion we are assured, and we are told too that it reaches right out and takes hold of the hearts of it's audience and grasps tbem firmly in loving grip from the rise of the curtain on the prologue until its final fall on the last act.

iCHEcK RAIsEBs' RICH HARVEST. Gang of Them Reaping It in Many of tbsss-srge Cities of tiao West.
 Banks Warned.

The banks of this city were notified yesterday that many checks had been stolen from letter boxes in De- troit, Buffalo, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Toledo, Cleveland, Kansas City and Milwaukee.
 The thefts were evidently the work of m organized gang. They had been raised to large amounts and the names of the payees had been ob- liberated and leash" or ''bearer' substituted. In several instances the thieves have been successful in getting the checks cashed.
 The above Is from the New York Journal of the 18th inst. Had these checks been perforated the checks could not have been raised. Protect your bank account by ordering an indeIlible check perforator from Geo. H. Adams. Price only $5.00.

ception of Miss Nell McEwen, of this city, as Flora May Randolph, and the pretty scenic production is the same. Since his visit to this city Mir. Clement has won from sister cities the same good opinion that was be- slowed upon him here Columbus, Toledo, Detroit and Grand Rapids are the principal cities he has visited since he was seen here. In all of these Baron Hohenstauffen has at once attained great favor. The public press have had nothing but words of praise for MT. Clement and his play. There is every indication that the return engagement in this city will prove a most successful one. Mr. Clements work appeals to all classes of people; the gods of the gallery laugh as heartily and as boisterousiy at the fun produced by the geutlemanly Germans entangle- n,ent with the English language as do those who sit in one dollar and a hall plush chairs down stairs. This is because Hohenstauffen is human therefore, he appeals to every one within whose breast there beats a human heart. The simple, tender, sweetly-told story of "The New Do- minion," therefore, appeals to all classes.
