Hon. L. J. Kings Lecture.

Mr.. L. j.. King, of Fair Play, gave a
lecture in the Court House last Friday
evening which surpassed anything of the
kind heard in Walhalla for long while.
In fact, one of the oldest citizens
said that Mr.. Kings lecture was far
ahead of the celebrated Sam Jones, and
was one of the best lectures ever deliv-
cred here. The lecturer was introduced
by Prof. Nicholson, and gave an excel
lent lecture, end time and again the ap-
plause was prolonged and Mr.. King was
compelled to wait until the enthu-
siasm subsidized. His friends predict for
him successful career on tho lecture
platform. He Is original and apt in his
sayings, and no one should fail to hear
this really gifted orator. Should Mr..
King give his lecture on the "Chinese
question:" 1t will repay anyone to travel
q long distance to hear him. What he
has to say about hypocrites hits the nail
squarely on the head, He doesn't mince
matters, and what he says on that sub
ject alone is we'll worth listening TO. AL
together he gives most enjoyable and
entertaining lecture.
