will give performance at Cooper

January 18th:
The great Barlow and Wilson's
Minstrels appeared at the Grand
Opera House last night. 1t is the
strongest aggregation this company
has ever carried and the first part
setting is the finest ever seen on the
local stage. That minstrelsy is still
popular with fun lovers is evident;
and it is worthy OF mention that while
farces and meIodramas come and fall
by the wayside, clean cut minstrelsy
will go on just The same; and while
it has amused the many in the past,
it will continue to amuse great
many more, before the last bones
have ratified into dust, and the last
tambo has been shatte ed. The mono
logue work OF Barlow and Wilson was
exceedingly clever, while the quar-

BARLOW AND WILSON'S MINISTRIES.
This Favorite Aggregation Of Fun
Makers to be Here Next Tuesday

The great Barlow and wilson's
Minstrels will hold the boards at
Cooper Opera House next Tuesday
evening. The Grand Rapids Daily
Democrat says this of them:
Barlow and Wilson's Minstrels
made their annual appearances last
evening at Powers Opera House to
an excellent house. 1t is a fact
worthy of notice, that at each success
sive trip of this famous organization.
vacant chairs down stairs seats have
been few and far between. It follows
that an attraction able to fill that
portion of the theatre is one of in
trinsic merit. The music portion
was particularly strong. The ballads
of James Barardi, James Leonard aud
Joseph MeGrath were pretty rendi-
tions. The monologue work of Bar
low and Wilson was very funny,
while the popular Conroy and hurry
met with an ovation that must have
been exceedingly pleasant to those
favorite comedians. Taken all to-
gether the Barlow and Wilson show
far surpasses the usual minstrel at
traction"

MOuioe Euqui1eI
This issue is our FINALLY brethren"
for the year 1901. We hope 1902 will
be a better year with our people than
the year just closing has been; that
the earth may yield more abundantly
that there may be fewer in the land
with empty corn cribs and smoke
houses. Counted by those things
which we usually count in making a
successful, prosperous year, the year
now closing has been hard one with
a majority OF the people Of our State.
Let US hope that in 1902. He who in
the long ago placed His bow in the
clouds and swore by Himself, be-
cause there was none greater by
whom to swear, that SO long as time
endures seed time and harvest shall
be, will cause the earth to bring
forth more abundantly than it did at
the last crop gathering. Our people
face the coming year with faith and
hope, and strong determination to do
everything possible to make the year
1902 a profitable one.

Atlanta Constitution, Dec. a5


You. who sit today in the glow Of
your warm fireside. can you think of
the other fellow a moment-the fellow
on the outside? You pile the coal
. high upon the CRATE and watch its
rudy glow. while all about you is
the comfort that good fortune brings.
Can YOU think how you would feel if
-Fsse should extinguish the fire on
your hearth and the CRATE become
cold, and the velvet carpeted floor be-
come bare. and the larder become
empty-you who were never hungry
and gaunt poverty should come to
dwell with you and yours? Can YOU
think, you who have found it difficult
to keep warm as the weather record
toyed with zero-can YOU think what
your feelings would be if you and
yours had been forced to stand and
take the icy air? Were you not
ashamed. in your great coat. with
your warm blood pulsing through
your well-fed body. when you met
that thinly clad, shivering boy, or
that pale woman whose worn hands
were fighting the battle of life for her
self and her little ones?
You didn't think. did YOU?
Well, think!
Can you not recall some dear old
lady who sits accomplishing in pow
erty and waits the summons to other
scenes? Can you not cheer her with
a Christmas gift? Perhaps you know
some old man, once sturdy as an oak,
now like leafess tree in winter.
Can you not brighten this happy sea-
son for him? Can't you throw a life
line to some poor boy, or help the
needy woman whose little brood how
ers around the chilly CRATE in the
house which Santa Claus passes by?
In this season, which we observe in
memory OF One who loved the poor,
and who loved little children, when
your home is bright with Joy and
plenty, warm your own heart with a
deed of charity and you can sit down
to your Christmas festivities with bet
ter grace.

Missed the Launching but Saw the
Ship.
The editor spent Sunday in New
port News going down Saturday.
We did not get there in time to wit
ness the launching of the big battle
ship Missouri, but through the cour-
tesv of Mr.. Geo. M. Manning, who
is an employe in the great shi pbuild-
ing and dry dock plant there, it was
our privilege to GO through it and
inspect this mighty fighting monster
Of the sea, the monitor Kansas, the
great Pacific liner Korea. and the half
dozen or more other ships of various
kinds now under construction there.
The Missouri is a ma estic looking
vessel even in it's present state and
when completed it will be thing of
beauty and one of the most powerful
and formidable warship s afloat. She
was authorized May 4, 1898, and her
keel was laid April %, 1899. Her
dimensions are: Length, SSS feet;
beam, 70 feet y inches; draught, %
| feet 6 inches; displacement, 1920
tons. Cost, 1885, 900. Complement,
| 35 officers. 511 men. 1t will probab bly,
| be two years or more before the Mis-
souri, is completed and ready to 60
into commission.
The Korea, which was launched last
fall, is the largest vessel ever con-
structed in this country. She is
being built for the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company and is the second of
these great liners under way at these
yards.
La Grippe coughs often continue for
| months and sOmetim es lead to fatal results
