As was instituted in January, 1847,

order from its foundation. He told how
hard it had been to get the Sovereign
Grand Lodge to even agree to let the
members wear their regalia IN public,
but that since it's incipiency this
brance of the order had made wonder
full progress. He stated that at the
recent session of the Sovereign Grand

1000 uniformed men in the parade.
At the conclusion of Maj. Brown s
address. Hon. Jos. A. Glasgow on be-

My Uncle from Japan.

A crowded house greeted the Staun-
ton amateurs at the opera house last
night, on which occasion My Uncle
from Japan" received its initial pro,
duction before Staunton audience.
To say that the play pleased them
would be expressing it mildly, judging
from the frequent outbursts OF laugh
ter and applause. The various roles
were 40 we'll handled by the different
members of the company, that to dis
criminate would be unfair, but it is
sufficient to say that all proved them
selves to be TIE best bunch of fun
makers ever seen together. The per
Torrance was under the direction of
Mr.. Warner Olivier, to whom great
credit is due for the excellent manner
in which be had reheared and staged
the production. i,
The performance will be repeated
tonight and will doubtleFs have another
full house as it is well worthy OF the
public'S patronage.
