RICHARD cARvEL A SUCCESS.
A Bril- liant Performance at the Academy lof
Music Last Night.

Last night the magnificent presenta-
ton of Richard Carvel' was witnessed
by the largest and most cultured aud
fence that has been present at the Acad-
envy of Music this season.
The performance was gem, brill
liant one, and was complimented by
those in attendance in the most lavish
terms. The special scenery and set
tings, as we'll as the costumes were true
to the days of 1775, about which year the
scene of action was laid The play had
true Colonial flavor.
The performance had what might be
termed a velvet finish to it. The play
ran smooth and even and the cast was
one that fully measured up to the high
praise of the advance notices. Mr.. An
drew Robson in the title role and Miss
Ruth Berkeley as Dorothy Manners"
fairly divided the honors of the evening
and with Mr.. William McVay as the
Duke of Chartersea' and Mr. Theodore
Freibus as Lord Comyu received re-
peated curtain calls.
The attendance on last nights per-
fcrmance and the praise given the pro-
duction are proof positive that the best
class of entertainments will receive lib

The Miller Meeting.

The revival services, conducted at the
Hillsboro Street Christian church by
Evangelist R. ". Miller, are growing in
interest. Yesterday the forenoon service
was deeply spiritual and despite the noise
of the circus parade during the hour of
service it was one of the most helpful Of
the series. He spoke about the book
of Ecclesiastes. He called it the book Of
the natural man and the 18th verse of
the 9Th chapter as the key verse. He de-
clared it was without Christ or Christian
experience. He closed by showing that
while Solomon had tried the vaious pleas
uas and ambitions belonging to the natu-
raj man he declared all was vanity and
vexation of spirit At the close of his
discourse Evangelist Greenwood. of the
Tabernacle meetings, sung a new song
with telling effect.
At night Mr.. Miller preached a strong
sermon on THE Condition of Prayer"
Services today at 1920 a. m. and 1880 p.
m. No greater Bible teacher has labored
here than Mr.. Miller. The public is COR
daily invited by the church to attend
these services.

The evangelist said in part as follows:
GOD seeks to be friends with men,
while satan seeks to destroy their conf

with men in the circumstances of life
and yet they don't recognize Him. He
comes by the voice of conscience. You
can so deal with conscience that it will
become like an alarm clock, sharp and
effectual at first, but if unheeded or
abused Intellectual. Gods Word, the
Bible, is also one voice to us. A man in
Durham, best known in town because Of
his drunken habits. came into the meet
ing there and heard the word thou fool,

thee," and it cleft him in twain and
brought him to Jesus.
