Of skin on his whole body that was not
affected. He was one mass Of sores.
The bandages used to stick to his skin
ard In removing them it used to take
the skin off with them, and the screams
from the poor child were heart-break-
Ing. 1 began to think that he would
never get well, but after the second

Otto Krause and his clever company
presented "Bpcanse She Loved Him &c."
to an appreciative audience at the
Century theatre last evening. The play
is a PRETTY little love story. cleverly en-
acted, and the members Of the company
were rewarded with much applause for
their efforts during the evening.
The Woods sisters made a decided hit
with their song and dance numbers
during the evening, and Miss Alleen Nor
rison, the leading lady won unstinted
approval in the principal role. The
Morrisons also took well with their
s%pecialties.
The company gave o matinee this
afternoon, and the final performance OF
the engagement will take place tonight.

This is the best in the Krause company

audience, and no doubt the s. o. r..
sign will be put out early.

A pleasant gathering of the school

non met at her home on Monday last,
the 29th of February. to commemorate
her second birthday. Miss Linda was
twelve years old that day and being
born On the Doth of February had only
had two birthdays during her life. Feb
ruary has 20 days only in leap years
and as 1900 vas not leap year she had
to wait eight years for a birthday to
roll around. The occasion was indeed a
pleasant one for the little girls and boys
who had assembled to observe so nOta-
BILE a birthday event. Each brought a
nice present for the fair little hostess.
The principal amusement Of the evening
was the effort Of the girls to pierce the
center of q large heart suspended in the
spacious hall, with a dagger, while
blindfOlded Miss Edna Hawkins won
the first prize and Miss nellie Began
the second. The :hrusts were generally
wide of the mark and il the little Misses

by Mrs. Kincannon and the even

The new bank opened for business
on the first of March in the building on
Main street formerly used as a bank
The full amount Of the capital stock
100000. has been all paid in and on
opening there were many thousands
of dollars in checks handed in with
which to open accounts. The officers
of the institutions are j. Rogers Presi-
dent, W. S. Johnson, Vice president, S.
J. High, Caseier and Emmons Tnrner
Book Keeper. These are all gentlemen
OF high character and enlarged expert
ence and of great popularity among the
people. The financial condition OF the
city and Lee county is by far better
than ever before and the institution
starts in with the full assurance OF sue
cess. The reputation which the officers
and directors of the bank sustain is a
sufficient guarantee OF IT'D correct and
wiseadministration. That it will speedi-
ly become an active and influential force
in the business of the county is beyond
u doubt.
