but if diseased ard tired out they cannot do it

AL FIELDS MINSTRELS.

Al. Fields minstrels comes to the
Opera House on Friday night.
There is no more entertaining form
Of stage show than that put up by
an up-to-date Minstrel Company.
This style Of entertainment is
American in all its salient essen
tials. The humor, the music and
the dancing are all of American
origin
There is a jingle and rhythm to
minstrel music that has charms for
the multitude. The plantation me-
lodies are only heard at the min
strels. Once in while some per-
former in the vaudevilles or on the
farce-comedy stage makes pro-
nounced hit of singing a ballad or
a plantation melody. Ten to one
you will find they are graduates of
the minstrel stage. If there was
nothing but the singing in a first
class minstrel show it would satisfy
many people, but a tirst-class up-to
date minstrel show has more vari-
ETY. than any stage exhibition of
;, the day.

THE TURTLE.

The prevailing opinion seems to
be that "The Turtle is the funni-
est adaptation from the French
that has ever been seen in this,
country. It ran for many months
in New York City at Brady and
Siegfeld's fine Manhattan Theatre,
and was produced with cast never
before equalled in point OF general
excellence. The same brilliant
company will give life and vigor to
the entertainment when 1.-THE Tur-
tie" is seen in this city on Thurs
day night at the Opera House.
Some of the principals are: Sylvia
Alice Lyndeu, Ada Zell, Jessie
Lansing, Ada Morton, Francis

Expansion In Trade.

The rapid growth of our business
with Japan in rails and machinery
during the past four years is an in
dication of what may be accomplished
in that quarter in the future under
proper encouragement. Four years
ago American rails were unknown in
japan, but at the present they more
than double in quantity the rails
which come from England. which up
to 1896 constituted the chief source
of supply. 1t is believed that Amer
leans have il in their power 10 prac-
tically control the supply of rails and
railroad material generally with
Japan during the next decade. As
an indication, it is cited that the
Carnegie company signed contract
at Kobe for 5000 tons of rails at a
price of $3,2s per ton under the low
est English bid. The men who man
ufacture these rails contribute to the
well being of the farmers whose sup
plies feed and clothe them-Hard-
ware.

BUSINESS OPINION.
Solid Southern Men Hope for Nc
Kinley's Reelection.
Becoming Awakened to the Neces-
sity of Advocating the Repub-
Iican Policies of Protection
and Expansion.

The south is becoming thoroughly
awakened to the fact that the polit-
cies of the republican party-protec-
ton, expansion and sound money
are those that will best promote the
industries of that section of the coun-
try. The Manufacturers Record, of
Baltimore, has collected another
broadside of southern opinion on the
issues of the day, this time from
bankers. The southern bankers as
rule coincide with the opinions of
the manufacturers, and here is what
some of them say:
L. l.. Foster, vice president of the
bank of Anderson county, Coal Creek
Tenn: "While VI was a democrat,
and voted three times for Cleveland,
do not see what could be done-from
a mere human point-that would
be more disastrous TO the business
interests of the country, and there
fore TO every interest, than the cleo
ton of Bryan. The gold standard
of money must be maintained, inn
perialism or no Imperialism"
A. S. Reed, cashier, Bertram, Tex:
"While a very large majority of peo-
pie in this section will vote for Bryan
for president, because he is their
party nominee, still the honest con-
viction Of the best business men is
that they would really prefer to see
Mr.. Mckinley reelected, believing that

Better Lend Than Borrow.

Mr.. Bryan "views with alarm" the
fact that Americans are lending
money to Great Britain, Germany and
Sweden. He thinks the lenders are
unpatriotic. Americans are glad to
have money 10 lend. Under demo-
cratic administration they had to bor-
row 1862 100000 abroad. and that in
gold. Mr. Bryan's election would
