NEWBERRY'S G ENIUS.
Mr.. w H Harris Invents a Time Lock that
VIII Let Out a Mans Chickens Or
Let His Cook In.

| A genius has been discovered in this
city in the person of M11s W. 81. Harris.
About Is months ago Mr. r. 81. Welch
decided that it was altogether too much
| trouble for him to get up so early each
morning in order to open his chicken
house and let out his chickens. He
went to Mr.. Harris and told him his
troubles and asked him if he could not
invent some kind of a lock that would
open itself at given time. Mr.. Harris
Immediately went to work to discover
something that would help Mr.. Welch
out of his troubles. He procured a
common lock and in some way attached
to it an alarm clock so that the alarm
clock could be set to ring at given
hour and Mr.. Welch's chickens could
be turned out without Mr.. Welch hav-
ing to wake up.
Some time ago Mr.. Welch went to
Colum bia, and while there went to see
Mr.. Gonzales, the editor of The State.
In talking over their mutual troubles
Mr.. Gonzales mentioned the fact that
one of his greatest troubles was having
to get up so early in the morning to let
in his cook. Mr.. Welch told Mr.. Con-
zales of his wonderful scheme, and Mr..
Harris is now busily at work, so that
when his job is completed the editor of
the State may peacefully sleep all the
time his cook is preparing breakfast,
and will not have to be walked up every
morning to let her in the house. Mr.
Harris will, in a few days, have the
clock completed so that it will open
any door at set time-the same as a
time lock on bank vault. Mr.. Harris
is certainly genius.

Coming Aumsements

The coming of Francesca Lafayette Is
is looked upon as an attraction OF consid-
cradle enjoyment for our local admirers
OF clean, pure and elevating drama.
This announcement will evidently create
much stir among society circles here
Miss Lafayette is said to be most
striking beauty, and when she speaks
her voice is of deep, rich contralto, 80
SO suitable in her character Of "Maritana,
the gypsy" in the romantic comedy,
"Don Caesar de Bazan, which she will
present here VERY SOON, for one night
only. The supporting company, scenery,
costumes, draperies and stage-settings
are hsralded as being most complete
and excellent. Every attention to de-
tail being, it is quite evident, fully
considered. 1t is also very well acted
by a company adequate and intelligent.
Miss Lafayette, of course, dominates
everything and she does it with such
finish, such ease, such perfect manner,
that one is filled with satisfaction to
know 80 good an actress still occupies
the boards. Miss Lafayette's methods
are thoroughly admirable-it is d light
to hear the meditation and the charm
of her deep voice. 1t is very seldom
that player catches hold OF the people
80 strongly and that dramatic art is SO
worthily expressed.
A date will be announced later, when
Miss Lafayette and her company will
appear here In "Don Caesar de Bazan.'

Latest Fad in Rims

What think you is lovely girlhoods
latest fad?
Finger rings made of horseshoe
nails! They are certainly not pretty
or graceful, but they are said to bring
good luck to the wearer on certain con-
ditions.
To be a genuine charm the ring must
be made from a nail taken from a
horseshoe found by the owner herself
and nobody else. This Is taken to a
ieweler who bends it to fit her little
finger and cuts off the superfuous
length.
The ring is now welded together,
and the head of the nail stands for the
