When we stop to consider the number of
theatrical companies that are at present com.
petinR for public favor, we must realize that
success can only come to those of very de-
cided merit One of the most prominent
companies of the season is Mcintosh &
Davis "A Hot Old Time in Dixie" with Mr.
Tom. Mcintosh in the leading part Mr.. Nc
Intosh and his partner. Mr.. Gusse L. Davis,
by their upright principles and conscientious
manner of doing business, have won the con-
hdence of the public aud as yet that conf

present very refined performance. They
are billed to appear at Ferguson's theatre on
Thursday evening. September 2sth, and will
undoubtedly have many new friends after
their short stay in our town.

BRIToNs UPHOLD CHAMBERLATN
Drastic Failure of a Proposed "Auti-
Mnr DemnnstrnlInn,, In Lnndnn

War Demonstrations In London.
London, Sept. 25.-The attempt to
hold a proBoer, anti-war demonstra-
tion in Trafalgar square, London, yes
terday afternoon, resulted in a drastic
failure. Thousands sembled, but not
to support the speakers. On the con-
trary, the crowd waved Union Jacks
and sang the national anthem and
Rule Britannia" like mighty invoca-
tions.
The speakers, who were quite in
audible, were received with groans,
decayed apples and eggs and other
missiles There were cheers for Mr.
Chamberlain, secretary of state for
the colonies, and Kisses for President
Kruger. Some soldiers who were pres
ent were carried shoulder high by the
crowd.
There were several ugly rushes for
the platforms, which were surround
ed by opponents of the demonstration,
who yelled tiercely. Finally the
mounted police were telephoned for to
clear the square. Batons were freely
used, several persons were trodden
upon by horses and 80 arrests were
made.
The opponents of the meeting finally
proposed resolutions in support of the
governments policy, which were car
ried amid wild enthusiasm.
Last evening the promoters of the
demonstration held a meeting in pri-
vate and after a long discussion car
ried the following resolution:
I'm consequence of the organized in
terruption of the anti-war demonstra-
tion in Trafalgar square, fomented by
section of the yellow and stock job
bing press, this committee resolved to
hold a public meeting in one of the
largest metropolitan halls at an early
date"

A UNIQUE SERVICE.
Rev. James Moore Surprised His Congre-
CATION Last Evening.


The service in the Primitive Methodist
church last night was of rather unique
character, although in line with teachings of
the gospel. 1t was very impressive. After
the opening singing and prayer. there was
temporary suspension of the program, during
which Mr.. Edward Cooper, the leader of the
choir, stated that the salary of the congrega-
tion's pastor was 500 in arrears and that there
was gentleman in the audience who had
promised to contribute $50 towards liquida
ton of the debt, provided the congregation
would make up the balance. A collection
was then taken. While il was in progress,
one of the collectors called out Mr.. Thomas
Bairi, $50 in cash" After the close of the
service it was announced that a total of $50 so
had been collected
Rev. James Moore proceeded with his ser
vice and said he had a surprise in store 1t
proved to be as announced. The pastor
dispensed with the sermon and, in its stead
read most of the first chapter from religious
publication entitled 'In His Steps-What
would Jesus Do" When the pastor reached
passages in which the names Of hymns were
mentioned he stopped and the choir sang the
hymns referred to- The reading was i'm.
pressive and the singing was very opportune
and rendered with excellent success Al the
close of the reading Rev. Moore stated that
the object of the service was to bring about a
wide spread reading of the book referred to,
believing it would result in much good
