talent.

cipal characters: Evangeline. Miss

Bellefontaine, Earl McCurdy; Basil

PRETTY BAD STORM.

About o'clock, on Wednesday
morning, heavy black clouds gath
cred in the west, and loud peals of
thunder gave every indicatio f a
stiff storm.
However, a big wind sooh Dlew
the clouds further west and precipi-
tated a cyclone at the little settle
ment of Benson.
Two barns, belonging to our good
old friend, Judge Dan Moore, filled
with tobacco, were blown down and
the contents badly damaged.
The barn of Mr.. jeff Smith was
blown down and its contents. con-
sisting of buggies, wagons, and
agricultural implements, were
smashed to kindling wood.
A number of other buildings were
unroofed and otherwise damaged.
Altogether 1t was about as severe
a storm as has visited that section
in many long years.
1t was followed by heavy rain,
which was of considerable benefit
to the farmers.

HYMAN & DeTRALL.
AT THE OPERA HOUSE.

The Harris Parkinson Stock Com
pany, easily the most popular of
Southern stock organizations, will
open an engagement of one week at
the Capital Theatre, Monday night,
September 18th. The success of
this company is due to the fact
that they offer to the theatre-going
public an entirely different class of
shows from any other so-called
repertoire company. The opening
bill will be Slaves of the Orient"
which ran for 230 consecutive nights
at the Union Square Theatre in
New York and is to be staged in
Frankfort with special Oriental
scenery owned by the company and
costumes made by Van Horn d Co.,
New York.
Mr.. Robert HI. Harris, recognized
to-day as the most prominent of
Southern actors, has secured the
exclusive rights Of this production
to be played by IA stock company at
popular prices which are to be 10,
20 and 30 cents. There will be an
entire change of program nightly
and no waits between the acts as
all intermissions are filled with
audeville and Specially features
alone worth the price of admis-
sion. Ladies will be admitted free
on the opening night when accom-
panied by person with one 30 cent
ticket.

The Church Economist, a journal
which gives special attention to the
material problems connected with
public worship, finds that the
various ! denominations in the
United States spent in 1902 between
$35yO00!O00 and 100000 for new
church buildings. This includes
not only the buildings erected for
new congregations but also replace
ments of structures for old con-
gregations. The total expenditure
alsosincludes some. on buildings in
foreign fields. But it is safe to say
that the religious people of the
United States spend in providing
new houses for worship about $780,
600 every day in the year.
As to the number of new churches
thus provided the experts differ
somewhat. The Rev. DR.. Erskine
N. White secretary of the Presby-
terrain board OF church erection,
figures out that fifteen new
