that It is difficult to realize that when the
grandfather of the late Duke of Westmin-
ster laid out this region in pala tia resi-

With Only the Worms for Company.

From Frankfort (Ky~) Evening Call
Fully twelve hundred people went
out on the cars last night to witness
the performance given by Hart, the
Laugh King and his company, and to
see Mr.. f. n. Lehman, the manager
of the company, buried under ground
to remain 81 hours. The evening was
delightful and the large crowd enjoyed
the performance. Mr.. Lehman was
hypnotized and put under the ground
a few minutes after 10 O'Clock, and bis
grave was appropriately decorated after
the performance of this ceremony.
During the two weeks engagement
of Hart and his company in this city,
one week at the Opera House and one
week at Cove Spring Park, they have
broken all records for the largest atten-
dance and the largest receipts.
The above attraction will be at the
Farmville Opera House December 49,
- inclusive.
