A Southern Jamboree.

We have just received from the
publishers copy of this most unique
musical composition. 1t is certainly
one of the most catchy and attractive
pieces of music that we have ever
heard. 1t is almost impossible to keep
your feet still while it is being played
and it is making as big a hit as
Georgia Camp Meeting" A suffi-
cient guarantee OF its merit is the fact
that it is from the pen of Mr.. J. w.
Lerman, the composer Of the now
famous "Kaya Kaya Dance" 1t has
been dedicated to Mr.. Thos. F. Shan,
non and introduced by him and his
famous Twenty-Third Regiment Band,
N. G. S. N. Y. Mr.. Shannon, who
was formerly manager of Sousa's Great
Band, knows good thing when he
sees it, and he is having such success
in playing it that Sousa, Innis, Brooke,
Washington Marine and all the largest
and best known bands have taken i,
up and are now playing it to most en-
thuslastic audiences. The regular
price of this music is soc. per copy
but if our readers will be sure to men,

The English law against a man S
marrying his deceased wife's sister
has been given fresh prominence in
this country by the recent arrival
of couple who came thither to
avoid it. The law, as is we'll known
had its origin in the ministration of
verse of the Mosaic law on mar
liage. In the marriage laws of 1851
(32 Henry Wild we find that ga
man may not marry his deceased
wife's sister, nor her daughter, but
he may marry his first cousin. "
These laws have been amended
again and again, but the one pro-
hibition has held fast. 1t exists in
no other country, not even Scotland
or Ireland, and to avoid it couple
have only to go abroad, since the
English civil law is that marriage
is valid at home if valid abroad.
This is the "lex loci" and it gov
erns all cases except in polygamous
countries.

People of Bloomsburg will have an
opportunity of witnessing on Monday
evening next, January 18th, an elab-
crate presentation of Lincoln J. Car
ter's Chattanooga" one of the most
stirring dramas seen in this city for
many years. chattanooga, as the
play might suggest, is play dealing
with the incidents prior to and during
the battle of Lookout Mountain, with
a plot of unusual strength, based on
the neutral ground of the heroism Of
the Union and Confederate soldier
and honor of Southern women. Mr..
Carter has utilized every opportunity
to construct drama of national in
terest and importance. That he has
done SO is fully verified by the fatter-
ing Communications made in both
sections of the country, and the north
and the south alike have united in
praislng this bit of realism Not of
the least importance in this play are
the scenic effects at which Mr.. Carter
is known to be master. Every
scene faithfully depicts situations and
places surrounding the famous Look
out Mountain and 1t is not an un-
usual occurrence to see old soldiers
sitting in the audience and pointing
out to their comrades points familiar
to them and many times their exclam-
ations of surprise and delight are visi-
bic to the audience. The story wo-
ven into the play is delightful and OF
such heartfelt interest that it appeals
to people of all classes, and tears and
laughter often mingle as the artists
fit from comedy almost to tragedy.

A Square Stalwart Fight.

1t is an open secret that the
friends of Quay mean to make
square Stalwart battle in every Leg
islative district of the State, and to
enforce distinct Stalwart mastery in
the State convention and in the
general management of the Repub-
lican party. In the contest of two
years ago compromises were made in
number of the counties and mixed
Quay and anti-Quay candidates
were nominated for the Legislature.
The result was divided delegations
in some districts on the Senator
question and disturbing local agita-
tion among their constituents. The
independents in that contest, with
but little organization, defeated a
number Of the Quay candidates for
the Legislature by the election of
Democrats and carried a fusion
ticket in Chester county.
The battle Of 1898 may now be
accepted as a mere preliminary
skirmish to the contest that is close
to hand between the Stalwarts and
Independents, with both entering
the struggle determined not to give
compromise or quarter. Where the
Stalwarts or Quay followers have
the power to nominate legislative
ticket they will make it distinctly
Stalwart from top to bottom, and
the Independents will meet such
nominations by aggressive opposi-
tion regardless of the possible or
probable election of Democrats. On
this point the two opposing forces
will start out occupying the same
attitude, and either will oppose the
success of the ticket of the other
regardless of political consequences
Such conflict, involving war to
the death between two opposing ell
ements of great party, must re-
suit in the complete overthrow OF
one and the complete mastery OF
the other. There will be no mid
die ground. 1t is desperate pol
icy, but both sides have been grad
ually drifting to it ever since the
election of two years ago, and the
desperate and decisive struggle we
have indicated could be prevented
only by the reconvening of the
Legislature and the election of a
Senator, all of which may now be
regarded as most improbable. We
present the political conditions as
they exist, and both sides may as
we'll look the fact in the face tina,
the Stalwarts or Quay followers
and independent or insurgent lines
will be even more aggressively hos
tile to each other in the coming
campaign than either will be to the
Democrats. -PHiIa. Times.
