COMING DRAMATIC EVENTS

An event of real interest is the pre-
sentation tonight at the New Crawford
theater of George H Broadhursts sue
ceSSful farce. 1.-The Wrong Mr. Wright"
The play itself is funny and worthy Of
patronage, but the chief interest is ow-
ing to the appearance in it of Harry
Beresford. This is Beresford's second
season as a star. Last year he was i'm
mensely successful. Previous to that he
was the PRINCIPAL comedian in stock at
the Auditorium theater in Kansas City
for several years. He was such a craze
in Kansas City that everywhere he
went the small bows shouted the catch
lines of his various roles at him to let
him know he was recognized. Reresford
is genuinely funny. He is accompanied
this season by Emma Dunn. one of the
brightest ingenues who ever played
hereabouts. The prices for the matt
nee are from p cents to 81.
"Old Innocence" in which Tim Muir
ply is starring this season, will be pre-
scented here soon with complete original
scenery. beautiful costumes and novel
stage accessories.

Charlotte Observer: The funniest
thing in North Carolina politics this
year was the manner in which the
nomination for Judge of the Superior
Court was given to E. B. Jones, Esq,
of Winston, Tuesday. Mr.. Jones was
a candidate for the nomination for
solicitor and was running for it as
hard as he knew how, with a good
prospect of getting it, when the other
candidates for this office formed a.
combination and, to his unspeakable.
disgust, nominated him for judge
When he caught his breath, recovered
from his surprise and his good humor
returned, he characterized the pro-
ceeding as a Conspiracy" but he
gracefully accepted the situation and
the nomination, and will make a most
excellent judge. But the honor sneak
ed up on him and grabbed him "unbe-
knownst."

NETTING OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY
ALLIANCE.

Cor. of The Progressive Farmer.
On July 9th, the Cumberland
County Farmers Alliance held its reg
ular quarterly meeting with Flea
Hill sub at Flea Hill. I am glad to
say it was one of the most harmonious
county meetings that I have v e at
tended. Questions of Importance were
discussed by a number of the brethren
in a brotherly manner, from which we
all gained considerable benefit. Messrs.
D. B. Culbreth, w. Culbreth and @.
Butler wished to rejoin our Order, and
made application to our County Ali
ance, and were admitted TO fun fell
lowship. They are going to try to
re-organize their old subs, as soon as
possible. We trust that more of the
ex-members will do likewise. Dear
friends, come into our Order again,
for there's room and room to spare,
And if you are tried, try to come out
all pure gold. Now is the time to
throw yourself into the Alliance cruel
bic and let us see what kind of metal
you are made of.
We extend grateful thanks to
our brethren at Flea Hill sub. and all
the people in that vicinity that par,
ticipated in our meeting for Their
generous hospitality. There were sew.
eral ladies, children, and gentlemen al
u meeting.
We reelected the same officers fol-
the ensuing year that have been serv
ing us since our January meeting
Would say that the prospect in olc

is very promising It present.

Halifax Cor. Post: Reports from
all parts of the county indicate the
finest corn, cotton, peanuts and tobac-

mate the general crop as ten to fifteen
days farther advanced than usual at
this season.

Col. Olds: Robson County and

for them.

The Main Reef series is situated on
the southern slope of the Witwaters-
rand, a ridge of quartzite situated just
north of the town of Johannesburg,
and extending in an easterly and west
erly direction. This ridge has a gen
-eral elevation above the country to
the south of from 800 to 500 feet. 1t is
nearly 5000 feet above sea level and
forms the watershed between the At
fantic and Indian. oceans.
In ascending order. the following are
the most important conglomerate beds
in the Main Reef series. First, the
Main Reef; second the Main Reef
Leader; third, the South Reef. The
Main Reef, which gives it's name to
the series, consists generally of sew
eral beds of Blanket" separated by
layers of quartzite, though sometimes
forming a solid body of conglomerate
as much as twelve feet in thickness. 1t
is worked in but very few places, being
of low grade, carrying rarely more
than five or six pennyweights of gold
to the ton, and on the average con-
siderably less. Overlapping this reef,
separated by a few feet of quartZite in
places and at times without any de-
marcation, is the Main Reef Leader.
The pebbles of the Leader are usually
larger than those of the Main Reef.

corncob at all. Take the average cob,
when dry enough to use and you find
that 1t measures about an inche and

large fortune. 1t was the name corn
cob which caught on, added to the
fact that the farmers did actually
make pipes of the veritable cobs, but
these had small bowls In the Tibbe
pipes, now almost extinct, the cob
was taken while fairly fresh and
plunged into plaster of paris, to which
some secret glue had been added. This
was well worked by hand into the
fluffy outside of the cob and allowed
to dry. Then the exterior was smooth
ed down into the shape of a pipe, and
the cob interior cut out to form the
bowl, but, understand, the interior cut
away was practically all cob, so moth
ing remained but the very outside fuzz.
It was corncob pipe sure enough, but
the cob was all gone.
"This idea was still further enlarged
upon when the patent expired and the
mixture of plaster, ETC., was used to
form a pipe which was called the
'buckwheat,' although it had not so
much buckwheat as the cob pipe had

"In spite of the persecution that was
melted out TO Christ, during his life on
earth, his work and teachings were
accompanied by an undercurrent of
joy" said Bishop w. 1. Joyce in his SER
mon at the Clinton Avenue NJ. E.
church yesterday morning.
The world ridiculed him, it tortur-
ed his body and finally put him to
death, but still he was joyful, for he
knew that he was accomplishing his
mission on earth. He was saving those
that were putting him to death.
He bore the shame, the cross and
the nails, and carried on the salvation
of the world. And withal there was
satisfaction to himself in the work
to which he was assigned, although it
was fraught with pain. He came to
save the sinner and the mission he ac-
cOmplished, although at the price of
his own blood"
The services yesterday morning were
the first since the church has been
repaired. The morning collection
amounted to $233.51.
The saving grace of Christ is the
only hope of the world" said f. M. Rule
in his sermon at the same church last
night Its only hope lies in looking
to him, Jesus Christ, of yesterday, to-
day and forever.
the work of the Lord is perpetual. The
workers of Christ depart this life, but
the good cause continues on. Hun
dreds of the Lords workers have pass
ed away, but the work today is on a
tirmer basis than ever before. Jesus
Christ, as prophet, priest and king,
is the same today that he was yester-
day, and thus will he be forever. A
great many people come to think of
Christianity as meditation, and of
Jesus Christ of yesterday.
They recall that he came to the
world and lived here for years that he
rose from the grave and departed this
life. They do not think of him as he
is today, a factor in the every day life
of every individual.
During the thirty three years of his
life on this earth he gathered into his
mind all of the truths of the world, so
that when he was only twelve years of
age he surprised the scribes and doc
tors of learning by his marvellous cru
dition. We must have more than par
don, we want the cleansing power Of
Christ, that we may enter on the path
of life with clean, pure being"
