"The Adventures of Lady Ursula"

So great was the impression made by Mir William Morris and his supporting compa- my in "The Adventures of Lady Ursula" when they appeared here about a month ago that a return date was decided upon The same company and the same play will be seen at the Jefferson theater next "Wednesday night. During the previous en- gagement of the company MT. Morris in spected the Jefferson theater. and so de- lighted was he with the new house that he then and there determined upon play tying here again. This engagement is the result of that determination. The Age-Herald. in commenting upon the former engage ment of the company, said:
 Ut is doubtful if a more meritorious pro- duction has been seen at O'Brien's opera house this season than '"rhe Adventures of Lady Ursula" as presented yesterday by William Morris and his splendid ccmpa- py at matinee and again last night.

to tine arguments of the missionaries and

to the arguments of the missionaries and went west.
 Just how many have fbeen induced to em- igrate cannot be estimated, but from re- ports secured by clergymen and others who have been opposing the movement in the south there Is no doubt that several hun dred young women have been sent to Utah, while the so-called converts number thou sands. An idea of the extent of their op- erations can be gained when it is stated that in North Carolina alone for the last two years, from fifty to seventy-fiVe elders have been al work the majority in the Piedmont and mountain sections. In many of the larger towns they have made can vases from house to house, to a certain extent following the plan adopted in the rural districts. They secure board with some responsible family, at first not an- nouncing their character and then by in- reductions, obtain an acquaintance in the community, taking advantage of this to talk of their doctrines. In eastern Ten nessee, according to the latest report, about fifty have been working, while throughout the south, including Georgia and Virginia, conservative estimate places the number at fully 200.
 During the last year, as the southern peo- ple have become more acquainted with the character of these missionaries and their religion, opposition has become much stronger This is partly due to the influence of .mini-Gens of other denominations. They have preached vigorous sermons against them, and aroused their congregations to hostility. In some cases the opposition has assumed a very violent form. Johnston county, North Carolina, has been the scene of number of attacks upon the elders and their converts In that county two churches were built with money raised in the vicinity by the Mormons A few months ago a band of white men, armed with shetguns, visited the locality where church had been
 One of the Mormons, who had been preaching there, came upon the scene and was roughly handled, nearly all his eloth- ing being stripped from him, while he was severely whipped with rawhides. He was told to leave that part of the country and never come back. In East Tennessee two or three of the elders have been shot and others warned to cease their operations TIne authorities in several North Carclina towrs, at the request of the clergymen, have prohibited the Mormon meetings on the ground that the work is Illegal.
 The missionaries. however. have coptin- ued their efforts, and it is believed that they are as numerous in tfa south as two years ago. One interesting fact is that they pay Nttle or no attention to the negroes. all though the latter flock to the meetings in great numbers, attracted by the novelty. While they do not oppose their presence, the Mormons do not attempt to ba2tiZe them or make any effcrt for their conver- cfn

DENMARK MUST
 HAVE HER PRICE She Will Not Sell the Islands for $3,OO0.O0O. WHITE HAS BEEN so TOLD A Feeling Against Selling the Islands Has Sprung Up in Denmark, and
 the United States Must
 Act Soon
WHITE HAS BEEN so TOLD

New York, March 30.-A gentleman prominently connected in an official eapaci- ty with Danish affairs today made public a statement concerning the reported nego- tiafions for the purchase by the United States of the Danish West Indian posses sions. The statement Is prefaced with the remark that it may be considered semi official. It says that Denmark will posi- lively not part with her possessions of the Antilles for the sum of S3OO1, GOO; that it has never agreed to do so and never will.
 Denmark asks certain price, says the statement, and it gave to the United States representative. Henry White, secretary of the American embassy at London, its req sons for asking that price.
 When MT. White opened the negotiations he was told that reasonable proposition
 from the United States might be consider ed if the negotiations and eventually the treaty would be sure of ratification at the present session of the United States con gress.
 The statement says that MT. White was frankly told that the islands were flnan- cial burden upon the shoulders of Dem mark, and that the Danish government would fix a price on the basis of the pres ent indebtedness of the islands. This price, 1t is said, was between four and five mil- lions. strong sentiment against selling the islands have sprung up in Denmark, and so forcible have been the protests that the king has semi-offically announced that if the United States should fail to avail themselves of the propositions already made that he wolrld promise that the islands should not be sold.

Washington, March 30.-The dlssatisfac- ton expressed in England at the finding of the Delagoa Bay arcitratlon is sharply reflected in Washington, and there are no lack of intimations that the decision is by no means the end of this celebrated case
 The findings, as it is reported to the gov ernment, have simply resulted in a decree that, if observed. would plunge England and the United States into protracted liti- gation intended to satisfy the claimants to the money out of a sum totally inadequate for the purpose, and the twof governments may decide not to accept the arbitration.

 The close traffic allegiance with the Mo- bile and Ohio was made possible by the completion of the new line of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois from Marion to Thebes.
