1t has seldom been the pleasure of
our thcatrc-gocrs to en- Joy such rare
treat Of the classic as presented at til

qucnt occasions the cry has been heard,
"Givc us good performances and we
will patrOniZc Them" Now we can
safely say without any fear Of contra
diction that Damon and pythias as
presented at the opera house last eve
ming has been one of the smoOthcst and
best productions seen in Newbcrry for
years. The patronage however las
exceedingly poor.
The title ,oll Of Damon as interpreted
by Luke Cosgravc was far above the

his artistic acting. Mr.. Pictro Sosso as
Pythius was indeed all that this noble
knight could be. He portrayed very

MERIT ALWAYS WINS.
A SUCCESSFUL ENTERPRISE IS
BASED ON MERIT.
The Importance of Informing the
Public of the Value of an Article
Through the Leading
Newspapers.

The few remedies which have at
tanned to worldwide fame, as truly
beneficial in effect and giving satisfac-
ton to millions of people everywhere,
are the products of the knowledge of
the most eminent physicians, and pre-
scented In the form most acceptable to
the human system by the skill Of the
worlds great chemists; and one of the
most successful examples Is the Syrup
of Figs manufactured by the Califor-
mia Fig Syrup Co. Unlike a host Of
limitations and cheap substitutes, Syrup
of Figs is permanently beneficial in Its
effects, and therefore lives and pro-
notes good health, while inferior prep
arations are being cast aside and for
gotten. In olden times If a remedy
gave temporary relief to individuals
here and there, 1t was thought good;
but nowadays laxative remedy
must give satisfaction to all. If you
have never used Syrup Of Figs, give it
a trial, and you will be pleased with 1t,
and will recommend 1t to your friends
or to any who suffer from constipation.
or from overlooking, or from colds,
headaches, biliousness, or other ills re-
sulting from an inactive condition Of
the kidneys, liver and bowels.
In the process Of manufacturing the
pleasant family laxative made by the
California Fig Syrup Co., and named
Syrup of Figs, figs are used, as they are
pleasant to the taste; but the medicinal
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination of
plants known to be incidentally laxa-
tive and to act most benef1cially. AS
the true and original remedy, named
Syrup Of Figs, Is manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co. only, knowl-
edge of that fact will assist in avoid
ing the worthless limitations manufac-
tured by other parties. The company
has selected for years past the lead
ing publications Of the United States
through which to inform the public Of
the merits Of its remedy, and among
them this paper Is included, as will be
seen by reference to its advertising COL
umns.

SYRIAN WEDDING.
Al which tho Priest Wore Crown ana
Robe of Gold.

New York Times st. Peters Ro-
man Catholic church was crowded on
Sunday evening with members of the
Syrian colony and Americans WHO had.
been invited to witness the wedding'
of Miss Shafika Lutfy to Elias Mack
soud, both of whom were born in the
Christian city of Zahle, Syria, which
was the scene Of great fight during
the Christian massacres in the eos.
Nearly all the members of the Lutfy
and Macksoud families are now in the
United States, preferring to live under
the stars and stripes to remaining I'M
der the banner and crescent. The
bride Is the daughter of Abdow Lutfy,
the senior partner of the firm of Lutfy
&c Macksoud, importers of oriental
goods, and the bridegroom is the jun
Tor partner. They both belong to the
Greek Catholic church. While the
guests waited in the church the bride
was being arrayed for the wedding
ceremony at her fathers house, at
Battery place. She was dressed in a
WhiIO ooIih SOWu anu WOlO q AOh6
white veil, with a pearl necklace and
diamond pendant. The Rev. Father
Beshwaty, the priest of the Greek
catholic congregation, performed the
ceremony. He wore crown on his
head and long robe of gold cloth that
reached to the ankles. AS the bride
and her father walked up the aisle
they were preceded by little flower
girls and followed by the bridesmaids
and ushers, all carrying lighted can
dies. At the chancel the bridegroom
ntepped forward, and the father handed
his daughter over to him. The BRIDE
groom led the bride to the front of the
altar, and the priest began chanting
the marriage service in Arabic. He
asked them if they were willingly en-
tering into the marriage state, and
when they both answered in the az
1rmative two of the ushers held golden
crowns over their heads, while the
priest took two gold rings from sill
yer tray held by an attendant and
placed them on the fourth fingers of
the left hands of the couple. The GER
emory over, many Of the guests ac-
companied the newly married couple
to their home, where a feast had been
prepared. Mr.. and Mrs. Macksoud went
to Washington on a bridal trip.
