ADJUSTMENTS.

The Vroom-Addison dramatic COM
pany began its weeks enga cement last
night at the Clunie Opera House. 1t
plays at popular prices. 1t had a
very fair first night house. 1t present
ed the romantic comedy 1.-The Dukes
Pledge" 1t is a translation from the
French by Miss Addison and is
charming story of intrigue, love and
chivalry in the time of Louis XIV. The
interest is we'll sustained throughout
and the plot, at first apparently intri-
cate, presently is unravelled with skill
and made clear to the understanding. A
prettier romance with comedy effects
one could scarcely wish to see staged.
The company is one of fourteen people,
eleven of whom were in the cast last
night. Mr.. Vroom is careful, spirited
and unquestionably a practiced actor
He has a fine, clear voice and his en-
nunciation is distinct and clean cut:
quite a model. One has not the slight
est difficulty hearing every word he
utters. nor in understanding exactly
his conception of the meaning of every
line-and he interprets correctly, judg-
ing by his personation of the character
of Duo de Richelieu" in last nights
play. Miss Addison was rather disap-
pointing in that her voice is thin and
a monotone. That she is woman of
literary ability is assured by the fact
that the play is her adaptation from the
French. The character she assumed,
that of Gabrielle" the heroine Of the
comedy, is full of fine opportunities for
strong emotional work, it is surcharged
with tears and smiles, with lines which
call for the most touching manifesto
ton of feeling on one side and righteous
maidenly Indignation on the other
Miss Addison did not give them with
the warmth and strength expected yet
she read with letter perfect correct
ness. If it is assumed that her inter-
pretation of the part of Gabrielle is
that the character is that of a timid,
confused and cowed young country girl
seeking to restore her father and
brothers to liberty, and that she is not
a woman demonstrative of emotional
feeling but rather one fearful, per-
picked and all but overcome by unjust
accusation, then her repression and
lack Of force is in accord with such in
depreciation. Miss Bomar as the Mar
quise, was charming in her personality,
natural and sparkling in her reading,
adroit in her Interpretation of witty and
eoquettish lines, and being pretty, vi
vacious and spirited, she won the audi
ence cleverly, and really carried the
honors level with those borne by Mr.
Vroom. Miss Morrell. who was one of
the support of Modjeska the last two
seasons, has but few lines in the play,
but reveals in that few her capacity
and ability as a useful and clever
actress. The other support was sat
isfactory. In short it is a genteel COM
pany giving good entertainment and
doing far superior work to most popu-
lar price troupes 1t ought to draw
we'll for the week. Miss Addison and
Miss Bomar each received gracious
curtain calls last night and Mr.. Vroom
was twice called out. Tonight 1.-THE
Dukes Pledge will be repeated To-
morrow night the romantic comedy
drama 1882, or Love and War"
which is also a translation and adapta-
tion by Miss Addison.

Git up!' he howled, and the two
Camden boys went out of the door il;
a second, Lillibridge right behind them
with the reins in his left hand, and still
kicking up the dust at their heels with
the gun in his right.
Go a-humpin. Shake it up! Jest
after them between the cracks of his
gun, until they fairly dragged him
along, swift runner as he himself was,
SO fast was the pace the gun persuaded
them to take up. Up and down Main
street he drove them, the town taking
it in with howls of joy.
Whoa, there!' yelled Lillibridge,
when he had brought his team back to
their starting place. Lillibridge un-
wound the rope from them, and then
famed himself with his hat and waited
for the return of his wind.
You Shetlands are not SO bad on
the CO. he said finally, but you can't
run like you can talk. And you want to
learn how and when and where to un-
ship your gun from your purity new
belts before you undertake to pack
'em around with you. Why didn't you
shoot me up some?'
1.-THE young fellows looked sheepisf,
but said nothing. Lillibridge took them
under his protection from that night,
and in time they learned how to make
bluff good.
This same ThurSton Lillibridge was
the only man who ever had the drop on
that quick trigger man, Bat Masterson,
for minute. He crept UP behind Mas
terson one day, and with a quick move
ment grabbed both of the Marshalls
guns out of his belt. q Masterson wheel
ed around and found himself covered
by Lillibridge with his own guns. He
stood stock still, expecting to get two
balls in his head, for he had had several
growls with Lillibridge Lillibridge
lowered the guns and handed them
back to Masterson, butts foremost.
That's one I've got on you, Bat,
said Lillibridge, and it's up to you
never to come a-gunnin' for me, mar
shall, or no marshal, no matter what L
do. Just pass that up to some one else.
That goes said Masterson, briefly,
and SO it did, notwithstanding the fact
that there was many a time afterward
when it was up to Masterson to gather
Lillibridge in or make finish of it with
him.
1.-The real bad man has always been
boisterously bad, and the quiet, cool
bad man has never been anything else

DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT.

Several young men of this place,
and surrounding vicinity, went over
to Knoxville on the Fourth. and i'm
blbed too freely Of Knoxville's mean
whiskey, so when they arrived in our
peaceful little city they Immediately
attempted to clean up the town in
general, with the result that some OF
them found themselves in the place
Familiarity known as "Hulda."
The peaceful and law abiding citi-
zens will not tolerate such conduct in
any one, and they should remem-
Der that the law is no respector of
persons, and it is to be hoped that
no such offence Will ever be commit
ted by these young men or any one
else.
Light fines were imposed upon
them, but this will not be the case il
the act is ever repeated.

A Trip to Allegheny Springs.

On tuesday, the Fourth a merry
party consisting of Misses Annie and
Addie Kidd, Andrews and Smith,
Messrs McClung, Profit, Cunningham
and Goddard, took tript to Allegheny
Springs. Allegheny Springs is an
ideal place to have a picnic. The
party arrived at the hotel at 10, a. m.
The remaining hours of the forenoon
were spent in pleasant conversation.
After dinner which was indeed a
"swell affair."" some time was spent
on top Of the Hotel viewing the beauti-
full scenery. The party then went tc
the parlor where some excellent music
was rendered by the young ladies.
This was one of the most enjoyable
features of the occasion.
A trip to Yellow Sulphur was then
suggested, and after drinking of the
life giving waters of Yellow Sulphur
springs, some of the young men
assembled the mountain in quest Of
ferns, and brought back an aburdan,
supply. The young people then visited
the bowling alley, where nine pins
was the order for some time. We
never learned who won the game bu
suppose those that received the mos
points were the winners.
About five o'clock we started fol
home, having had most enjoyable
day, and we think we can voice ths
sentiment of the whole party in say
ing that July 4, 1899, will be pleas
ant spot in our memory for some tim,
to come.
