away
The Opera House was again crowded
to the doors last night to hear the Bos-
ton Lyric Opera Company's perform
ance of Fra Diavolo," and a magni-
ficent performance it was. Every
number was encored, and the great
sextette from Lucia, which was intro
duced as the finale of the second act,
was received with cheers and applause
until the principals had to repeat it
time and time again. 1t is not fair to
single out any n member of the
company as being better than the
other, for they were all good; in fact,
excellent, and the organization is
worthy of the crowded houses that are
greeting them at every performance.
Tonight the company will present an
opera never before presented here,
"Amorita," but which run in New York
for 247 nights. Cal. Thompson, man
ager Of the company, claims that
'A1norita" is the best performance
the company gives.
"The S~tDWaway'' was given it's mi
tial performance at the Grand, last
evening, in the presence of a large
audience. The play belongs to the
class of fine old English melodramas,
amplified and intensified by the realism
Of accurate stage setting and ingenious
accessories, built upon the regular lines
of such productions, clever as to it's
plot and situations and more than or
dinarily good in dialogue. The first
scene is a street corner in a wretched
quarter Of London at night. In the
second scene occur the famous safe
blowing by the expert ~cracksmen,
kid" Mccoy and pike Hennessey.
The play abounds in startling situa-
tons and exciting climaxes, and is pre-
sented by one of the strongest compa-
MES ever seen in a melodrama IN this
city, among whom may be mentioned
Duncan Preston. Frank Sheridan. John
Martin, Frank Russell, Charles Swain.
Celia Alsberg. Nellie Lindroth and
Others.

WAY OF THE WORLD.

A woman, barefOoted, hungry and
footsore walked through a certain
town recently looking for a poor
house. She once was the hope and
pride of a happy home, a reigning
society queen, leader in church and
Sunday school work. Men adored
her, women envied her, but all
rendered her homage. Beautiful. re-
fined and accomplished, pure and
spotless. But the sunshine went out
of her life,-the shadows came. She
trusted in mans honor and in a
moment Of weakness fell. The proud
woman became social outcast, a
weary homeless wanderer. Life has
no charms of her. The poor house is
her only refuge. AS she knocks at
the door the author of her degrada-
ton leads to the altar spotless
bride, amid the congratulations of
those who denounced his poor victim
and made her an outcast. Orange
blossoms, bouquets and honors for
the man, degradation and tears for
the woman. He is applauded, hut
she is lost forever.
1t comes to our mind that there is
retributive justice somewhere await
ing these cases. Methinks in the
great hereafter she will wear robes of
spotless white, for He who forgave
Mary Magdelene, will forgive her,
if she repent of her sins and pleads
her cause at the throne of grace
while her betrayer will roast in hell,
and the unforgiving will be judged
according as they judged her.-nur-

DIGNlFlED LABOR.

The old Southern planter, with his
army of slaves, was a princely char
acter. But there were many ideas,
the subject of condition, which
should have passed with the passing
of the conditions. The vast army of
the people in the South must now
gain their living by what we call
common labor, if they get it honestly.
We need nothing more than a dig
nifying of labor. There is room for
only a very small per cent. in the
professions, and even in business.
We need to recognize more largely
than we do that character can be
formed at the loom, at the forge, and
in all other lines of useful employ
ment.-Angio- Sa1on.
Eminently correct, but not far
enough. We need, not only to recog-
nize that character can be formed at
the loom or forge but that it is
formed there, character of some kind,
and what we are concerned about
should be what kind of character is
there formed. The South is waking
up W tdSUlS Ac" COuulClOuS VI lilC.
A tremendous element in our social
fabric will ere long be the laboring
people in our various manufacturing g
plants. There is no use denying
there is danger ahead for US. With
the rapid desertion of the rural dis
tricts and the congestion of popula
ton about the mills and towns where
proper social and religious Influences
are largely absent, there is need u
some means of impressing upon these
people the dignity Of labor and thu
dignity of character and response
bility. 1t is not so much a need il
the South of dignifying of labor al
the Anglo Saxon calls it, by which W,
understand it to mean that thos'

WEALTH IN SMALL THINGS.

Did you ever think how very valu-
able are many small inventions
what large returns they have brought
the fortunate inventors? The Patent
Record gives glimpse of some of
them that is surely instructive:
1.-The Stylographic pen yielded
e20,O year to its proprietors; a
plan for shading in different colors
was worth a simular amount; rubber
stamps proved equally valuable to
their inventor. A certain rich man
owes his wealth to the gummed news
paper wrapper; and the genius who
put piece of rubber at one end of a
tube and closed up the other end by
slipping in lead pencil realized a
fortune. The spring window shade
yields 100000 year. A miner, find
ing that the buttons upon the flags
of his trousers pockets would not
support the weight of all his heavy
tools, substituted metal eyelets and
hooks for buttons. That miner is now
a man of wealth. The inventor of the
roller skate made 100000. The
gimlet-pointed screw has been re-
sponsible for more wealth than most
silver mines. One hundred thousand
pounds in first-class securities would
not represent the fortune made by
the man who first thought of copper
tips for children's shoes. Even g
little thing like the common needle
threader is worth 1000 year to it:

How to Kill aTown.

Oppose every movement that is

BILE.
Never praise your town. its public
men or leading citizens. In fact,
never have good word for anyone.
They might hear of it and become
puffed up with pride. Only criti-
else.
Don't patronize home merchants.
Everythingis is much better and cheaper
that comes from the North. Advise
your neighbors to send away from
home for what they want. You
have done your part when you sell
your produce at home. Keep on
grumbling.
Never pay anything to the churches,
or any charitable organization. 1t is
much cheaper to find fault with the
preachers and to point out the mis-
takes Of those people who are always
''bothering you for money for thou
sand and one different objects" Pose
as martyr.
Don't paint or improve your prop
erty, but make some spiteful re-
marks about your neighbors when
ever they begin to put on airs" 1t
may really be an evidence of prosper
ity, and, besides, these Improve

When you meet q stranger tell him
about the excessive taxation, the lack
of public spirit, the bad streets, the
unhealthy climate, the unprogressive

people-tell him everything to dis

stay. Here is where you can put in
your best licks. Assume truthful
air. Do not appear to take any
pleasure in these sad recitals. Lie
regretfully.
Finally, don't patronize your home
paper. There are others larger and
much better, and they keep you
posted about special bargains. If the
home paper succeeded it might help

larger circle OF readers to spend their
money at home. 1t costs nothing to

the Baptist church in Wilson, says:

charmed with this masterpiece of wit
and humor and pathos and eloquence

Rev. T. N. Ivey. ID. d., editor of

Iconsider Henry Blount the greatest
genius that North Carolina ever pro-
draed, for he is not only a humorist of

and poet and rhetorician and orator, and
wields an audience with the potent wand
OF those irresistible powers. l have
heard his grand and beautiful creation,
''Beyond the Alps Lies Italy," and was
charmed with it's purity OF sentiment,
