Mrs. Cover is from Raleigh, \. C., and

INDECENT POS T[RS.
Show Advertised That is a
Disgrace to Public Decency.
The Pictures Are vulgatIy Indecent and The
inscriptions Are Plainly
SUGGEST vel.

Within the last few days the strets of
Raleigh have been. placarded with pos
ters of a forthcoming show called THE
Fannie Hill Burlesque Company to be
given at the Academy of Music one night
this week. Judging from these posters
and the inscriptions upon them. the
avowed and sole object of the show is to
exceed the limits of decency; it's "raison
d'etre.' in other words, is its filth
The posters themselves are vulgarly
indecent in their picturing and plainly
suggestive in their wording. No doubt
every man with spark of city pride or
public descency in his makeup has felt
the disgrace put upon our fair city by
these unehaste creations of the poster
makers art, calling to notice, nay even
thrusting into the very faces of passers-
by ladies and children, their message
OF filth for the very sake of its dirtiness.
There is a call right now for the true
men of Raleigh to get together and de-
mand that this public display of prurient
pictures and suggestive sentences be
stopped right off by our city govern
ment. 1t can be done. There is a COM
mon law against the displaying of indie
cent pictures in public places, and it
ought TO be invoked by the people of
this city in the name of decency.
Things have come to an unbeara BILE
pass indeed when ladies can not walk on
our principal thorouehfares without be-
. ing insulted by open and public adver-
tisements OF IN exhibition setting forth
its very dirtiness as It's chief attraction.
This is nosome atmosphere, truly
for our boys and girls to breathe. if this
sort of thing be allowed to go on.
The Academy of Music belongs to re-
spectacle people, and its manager has
of late been giving the people of Raj
eigh some very excellent attractions. The
use OF the hall foT such purposes as this
ought not be allowed by landowners. And
il the owners do not stopdE,Tthe citizens
must. At any rate, the people of Raleigh
can not submit TO having her streets
bedizened with pictures of q show that
would have done credit to- the tastes Of
