ONLY a Mask.

Many are not being benefited by the
summer vacation as they should be-
Now, Notwithstanding much outdoor life,
they are little if any stronger than they
were. The tan on their faces is darker
and makes them look healthier, butait is
only mask. They are still nervous,
easily tired, upset by trines, and they do
not eat nor sleep well, What they need
is what tones the nerves, periects diges-
ton, creates appetite, and makes sleep
refreshing, and that is Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Pupils and teachers generally will
find the chief purpose OF the vacation
best subserved by this great medicine
which, as we know, builds up the whole
system."

travellers from that section of the county.

Scarcity of Oysters,

The oystermen are complaining of the
great scarcity of oysters in South river,
owing to the depredations of scrapers
from other rivers robbing the bars Of all
small oysters - leaving none to grow.
They say that the "Daisy Archer" is
neglecting the river altogether, If some
thing is not done soon the bars will be
depleted. Three bushels for one day is
the best man can do. while a few years
ago fifteen bushels were considered a
good days work.

THE GREAT ALBINI.
The Celebrated 0OnjurOr To Appear At Tht
Opera House Again Tonight
Magic And Mystery Is
Wo.1o.r,,l

M0nuerIul.
"Wonderful T. Marvellous ! 1" "Did
You Ever I" were ordinations that
passed from lip to lip last night through
out the audience at the Opera House.
Those who saw the great AlbIni perform
his wonderful tricks SO mysteTiously that
they could not detect the slightest decep-
ton, were amazed at the magIcian's re-
markable cleverness, and enthused over
his most mysterious and unexplainable
Ieats OF magic.
Albini is an artist, and he has accord
ed to Annapolitans a great privilege by
extending his engagement over two nights
in this city. This town has been visited
by other conjurors and magiCIans, but
never before by one possessed OF such a
remarkable degree OF cleverness, and
such extraordinary gifts. Last night S
program was diversified to a novel de-
gree, and there will be an entire change
in tonight's bill, with the exception OF
the two most wonderful tricks-lhe egg
trick and the coat and bottle trick. AlbIni
does not rely upon mere mechanical con-
trivances tor his marvellous effects, Given
a ack of cards he is aule to entertain
the audience for an hour.
Albini's renal kable versatility amazed
The audience at the Opera House last
night. There were some present who
thought they knew something about tricks
as they are commonly performed, but 1t
did not take Albini long to upset such
notions, and Danish all knowledge that
amateur magicians in the audience may
have previously thought they possessed
Because of their failure to penetrate his
MS work, some comments were heard al
the expense of the great magician. In
almost every instance these individuals
were not foreseeing enough to realize
that magician who performs his tricks
among the audience must OF necessity be
armed for all such comments, and sew
eral patrons OF the Opera House learned
that Albini, besides being an unusually
clever sleight-oi-hand artist, is equally
quick at repartee OF the most biting kind.
Tonight's prices have been reduced to
IS, IS, IS and 50 cents. The egg and
bag trick alone is worth the price Of
admission.

Struck by Lightning.

During short but very severe
storm about 400 O'Clock Monday
evening, the Stringer building, on
Railroad street, was struck by
lightning The bolt tore off small
section of the roof and played pitch
and toss with the brick on one of the
chimneys. A slight blaze started and
within three minutes after the flash
the boys of the Volunteer Fire
Department had line of hose ready
to play on the building, but the
torrent of rain and hail which
followed did their work for them
and extinguished the blaze. How
ever, they had good emergency
practice run and did themselves
proud. The damage to the building
is insignificant, and completely COW
cred by the lightning clause in the
insurance policy.
The storm was as violent and sud-
den as ever known in this locality
and did considerable damage to tele-
phone and electric light wires.
