An Unique Address.

The postal clerks have great deal
to contend with sometimes, and it is no
wonder that some of the epistles that
pass through their hands miscarry.
But that there are some we'll
read ones among them is shown
by letter that reached Co
lumbia some days go with this simple
and unique address written thereon 3:
"Trotwood Dimple of the Universe. >
"he letter was mailed by person in
NV York and there was nothing else
on the envelope to show where or to
whom it was to go; yet the postal
clerks knew that ''Trotwood' meant
the author, John Trotwood Moore, and
that Maury County, made famous in
his writings as the ''Dimple of the
Universe, was his home; so the
letter reached Columbia safely and
was delivered to Mr.. Moore.

OPERA HOUSE.
Innes.

Innes and his band delighted the
musical element of the city Friday
afternoon perhaps it was only part
of the musical element, as the audience
was small. Innes himself was in q
much more amiable humor than on his
last visit here, and responded to the
applause so literally as to play an
encore for every number. The vocal
talent which is now part of his
organization is quite an attraction, and
the audience was thoroughly apprecia-
tive of this as well as all else.
On account of the inclement
weather, Mr.. III. M. Wills, the lee
turer did not fill his engagement at
the Opera House Monday night.
The next engagement booked is the
"Kilties' band, which
comes February 10th, under the aus
pices of Columbia Lodge of Elks.
