Omaha, Jan 9.-St JackSOn'S day
was appropriately celebrated in Omaha
yesterday by the JacksOnian club.
Three separate functions were down
on the programme, and each was a dis
tinct success. The first was an infor-
NAL reception held at club headquar-
tiers yesterday afternoon, at which w.

Of Kansas; Weaver, of Iowa, and sew
eral other Democratic lights were the
guests. Bryan was the chief center Of
attraction and during the two hours
the reception lasted several hundred
Democrats paid their respects. At 6
p. m. a dinner was rendered Bryan and
a few other notables at the Omaha
club.
At 8 p. ~. occurred the annual ban
Quet OF the club in the parlors of the
Paxton hotel Covers were laid for

Bryan was the guest of honor of the
evening. Bryan discussed the currency
question from the pUilit-Of-vieW Of the
South African war. He said in part:
Notwithstanding the increased pro-
duction of gold, few victories won
by the Beers in South Africa have
alarmed the bankers and they are now
fearing a panic unless England is i'm
mediately successful Their financial
interest in Englands triumph is so
great that many Of them have silenced
their sympathy for a struggling repub-
lie and are hoping for the extension of
the authority of a queen.
IF such agitation results from war
between England and a little republic.
what must we expect if war ever
breaks out between two gold standard
countries Of the first-class?'

SUMTER SUPERIOR
COURT CONVENES
November Term Opens Tomorrow
Morning.
A SHORT SESSION IS EXPECTED,
No Great Amount of Business Will Be
Brought Up and Judge LittlejOhn
Hopes to Adjourn Finally Before
the Christmas Holidays.

The November term of Sumter su-
perior court will convene tomorrow
morning and for three weeks, at least,
the wheels of justice will turn in the
disposition of official business.
Judge q. A. Llttlejohn will preside
throughout the session. He will be-
gin with the trial of civil cases, and
has announced that the first fifty APP
pearing upon the docket will be taken
for Mondays assignment.
ALI of these are old cases, carried
over from previous terms of court.
Comparatively few new cases have
been docketed for this term of the
court. and 1t now seems that but little
time will be required in which to clear
up the whole civil docket.
Then, too, the criminal business il
the lightest in several years, and less
than week will have to be devoted to
the criminal docket. There are fewer
prisoners in Jail than ever before al
this season, and these are held fol
misdemeanor crimes.
In fact, crime appears to have been
stopped in Sumter county.
Of course the grand jury will find a
number of indictments and these cases
will have to be tried. But not a muir.
der case or any other felony appears
upon the docket, and most of the mis-.
demeanors will be transferred to the
lower court for trial.
Judge Littlelohn expects to finish
up and adjourn before the holidays.

NATIONAL HOLIDAY,
All Business VIII Be Suspended Thurs
day.
WILL FEAST AND GIVE THANKS
Stores, Banks, Warehouses and All
Lines of Business Will Be Closed
The Turkey is Plentiful and There's
Cause to Be Very Thankful.

Americas will join the balance of tie
country in the observance of Thanks

to be thankful for.
In accordance with the usual Gus
tom and in obedience to the mandate
of the President and Governor. there
will be general suspension of bust
ness on that day, and all classes will
unite in giving thanks for the manifold
blessings received.
The stores, warehouses, banks, pub
tic buildings, railway depots and, IN
fact, all lines of business will close, as
is always done on Thanksgiving Day
and Christmas.
Union services will be held in the
morning at one of the churches.
The people of Americas have much
to be devoutly thankful for, and while
many will spend the day in the fields
with gun and dog, others will more
properly observe the day, OF course
everyone will have turkey. and will
be very thankful therefor.
But there are many other things for
which we should be thankful.
We have good health; the country is
prosperous; money is plentiful; cotton
is back to ten cents (nearly) the old
maids are mating; the elections are
over with; council buys the piledriyer;
we had the circus; have 5000 popula-
ton, and nobody around here is dodg-
ing the sheriff.
Verify, Americas, will give thanks as
she has not done in a twelvemonth.

WILL CONvULsE THE AUDIENCE
Splendid Attraction Is Promised
Wednesday Night.

Americas theatre-goers look forward
with much pleasure to the coming of
Hoyt's superb attraction next Wednes-
day night, and large and delighted
audience will see this play. Hoyt's
ga MilkgWhite Flag" contains more
essentials to a popular performance
than any of his other plays. It is q
comedy, light opera, extravaganza and
vaudeville show all combined, and goes
with delightful dash that makes it
one of the most entertaining of must
cal comedies, The first act is filed
with bright lines and side splitting
situations, and the balance of the per-
Torrance is held to the high standard
attained in this act. It takes large
quantity of special scenery and gor-
geous costumes to produce this play,
all of which is. carried by the company.
The cast includes some of the favor
ties who have appeared in former sea-
sons, but there are several new and
important additions to the cast.

HOLIDAY GOODS NOW ARRIVING
And Merchants Look Forward to
Fine Trade.

Though June weather holds on grim
ly during these November days, every
one knows that Christmas is coming
it is just one month off from today
and Americas merchants are preparing
for it. Their holiday goods have al
ready been received by many of the
merchants. Some of them have not re-
ceived their entire stock of winter
goods, but they will be arriving almost
daily, and soon Christmas shoppers
will be able to find whatever they de-
sire. Almost invariably, however, il
is the custom to wait almost until the
last moment before purchasing Christ
mas presents. This custom is particu-
larly noticeable with men, few of whom
ever think of buying presents for those
to whom they wish to present them
until about Christmas eve.
