by his election to the upper house Of
congress. The Judge takes up too much
time in his lectures" to the bar and
jury. but as they are all of a pleasant
and pointed nature, perhaps it is the
only time many of them have to listen
to few truths Knox county ought
not to be made to pay for those lectures
however. The term otherwise is going

providing what the town has so long
needed. The new hall will be formally
opened on Monday evening, May 80, by
the Sanford Dodge company, who pro-
duced Richard III in this city last year
before critical audience, and gave good
satisfaction. The company will appear
in the new hall two nights. Monday the
Goth and Tuesday the Both. The first
night that strong Shakesperean play
"Othello" will be given, and the
second night new play
entitled 1.-The Prisoner of Spain
will be produced Mr.. Durland an.
nounces that if his efforts to give the
people place of amusement are met
with substantial response in the way
of patronage, that he will socn make
further improvements in the hall, by
raising the ceiling, putting in a perma-
nent stage and new scenery, and rear
ranging the whole interior so that it
will be creditable amusement hall It
is scertainly to be hoped that the opening
nights will show such desire for a
place of entertainment that MIR. Dur.
land will feel warranted in going on
with his contemplated improvements.
