The Parish Priest

A dramatic novelty is what Tho
Parish Priest is which Daniel Suliy
and his clever associates win present
at the Opera House on Friday, Sept
&c. Danl Sully as the priest has q
character as new as it is novel. The
piece teaches a beautiful moral lesson
and an evening spent with Daniel Sully
in The Parish Priest is one not easily
forgotten.
The play does not uphold or reflect
on any religious creed, but tells a story
that benefits the soul. containing Il
smile for every sigh. a laugh for every
tear.
The play is mounted in an elaborate
manner and the east is one of extra
ordinary strength.

BAY ANNETTE.
Fast Filler Causes a Little lnconVenI-
 ence About Mall Delivery.

Bay Minette, November 8.-(Special.)- Since the fast flyer which brings the eastern mail was put on, the people of Bay Minette and north Baldwin have been kicking about the mail service, not because they get mail from this fast train, but because the Louisville and Nashville train No. 5, which passes here at 1925 o'clock, stopped bringing mail. To meet the demands of the people Post master w. R. White is making an effort to get special pouch from Bay Minette to Mobile, to leave here at 1925 and re- turn at 5 o'clock p. m. The indications are that he will be successful.
 For the first time in the history of Bay Minette all the stores closed yesterday for Thanksgiving. It was a great disap- pointment to many country people, who came to town for supplies, but the agree ment with the merchants was ironclad and none would open their stores.
 Mir. and Mrs Frank s. Stone gave a dinner yesterday to the orphans of Bay Minette, which was highly enjoyed by all who attended. It was said by some present that the bill of fare was the most elaborate ever placed upon festal board in the town.
 The county commissioners recently had an expert accountant from Mobile examine the books of the various county officials. His report was quite a refiec- tion on the books of the county assessor.
