Musical at Central College.

The spacious auditorium at Cen tral College was filled to its great est capacity Monday evening, Nov. 5, by large audience of the mu- sic loving citizens Of Conway, eager to hear the interesting pro gram that had been prepared tor them by the music faculty of Cen tral College. Each one present knew rare treat was i'll store, by a glance at the program, winch was made up from selections from the master composers Of classic mu sic.
 Mrs. Ida Walker Ball, music di- rector, was at her best, and her 1n- terpretations of Beethoven, Wag- ner-Liszt, Schumann, Bach and Gounod, were a revelation i'll mel ody. and charmed and delighted her listeners. By special request, Mrs. Ball gave a selection of her own composition, which was most excellent. and which showed that she was as skilled in composing as in interpreting the compositions ot the masters. Mrs. Vida Brook field Brown, who has charge of the stringed instrument department, delighted the audience with some choice selections on the violin, mandolin and banjo, and as the sweet strains of rich melody fell Ill measured cadence on the ear of the listener, each one felt that a master hand touched the respon- sive strings and thrilled them with melody.
 Misses Lancaster and Mcclure, who are members of the faculty are themselves graduates ot Cen tral College and their excellent renditions of some of the most diff ficult compositions of classic mu- sic, is within itself an evidence of the thoroughness, proficiency and high standard of excellence main tained by Central College.
 The entertainment was inter spersed with choice readings by Mrs. Floy Kimbrough Stevenson. Mrs. Stevenson is a great favorite with Conway people and on Mon day evening she won new honors. Her repertoire is replete with se- lections varying from comic to pathetic, and at one time she would have the audience convulsed with laughter, at another subdued to tears. She is a skilled artist in her line and it is. always pleasure to hear her.
 The entertainment was sue cess and rare treat and certainly an excellent advertisement for Cen t-al College.

It appears that criminality has been on the decrease during the past few days, judging by the small attendance at the in- ferior criminal court, commonly called the police court, which by others is known as Judge Feagin's court. It matters not by what name it is designated, the mean ing remains all the same to unfortunate human who has violated the city laws to such an extent that he has to face the throne of justice within its walls so son. bre, so lugubrious, so to speak.
 The crowd was exceptionally small yes terday: still there were some who were yearning for "justice," if that term might be construed to have meaning of their own manufacture.
 Among the first breaker of the laws who was drawn out to have his failngs aired was Arthur O'Neal, descendent of Ham of old: he was charged with being well loaded at the time of capture with irons which could shoot and which fit his hip pocket assif moulded therein He heard the judge say: q shall fine you $25."

Sunday this girl, who came here direct from Atlanta, but originally from Pennsylvania, called at a negro woman's house and told the in mate, Sarah Walker, that she wanted to live with her awhile.

 Threatening the Boer's Right
 at Magersfontein
THE FIGHT IS GOING ON

London, February 7.A:20 a. m.-Lord Roberts has caused to be distributed in the towns bordering upon the invaded col oniaa territory an invitation Ito Free Skaters and Transvaalers to go into the desert, of fering them good treatment and a restora- tion to their farms on the British occupa- tion of republican territory.
 The manifesto guarantees those bring ing horses can sell them. Foreigners will have their passage paid to Europe Colo nfal rebels are advised to surrender in preference to being taken prisoners.
 Not word has been received from the correspondents with General Butler for three days. It is as though Natal had been wiped off the map, excepting the helllogram from Ladysmiuh saying that the Boers are cannonading and the fight is going on.
 General Mcdonald, with 4,0OO infantry, cavalry and artillery threatens the Boer right at Magersfontein. This is the first sign of activity on the part of Lord Me- thuen for some weeks, and doubtless has relation to the movements of the British further east.
 It appears that General French's visit to Capetown was to ask Lord Roberts for 7,- 900 more men. Whether he got them is not disclosed. Troops are no longer detained at Capetown. They proceed immediately to some point at the front. Three thous- and disembarked Monday and they were quickly sent elsewhere.
 As Lord Roberts since the battle of Spion Kop has had 20,000 fresh troops to dispose of, it is probable that some have gone to General Butler.
