of which we're cravat of extraordi-
nary size and length and vest of

cautiously on the stage and looked
over the audience in anticipation of a
demonstration, then retired to wing
of the stage, brought forth a basket
and taking from it baseball mask,
chest protector an INIT" donned them
as if anticipating trouble. After a
brief monologue he became self assured
an discarded his implements of defense
and proceeded to sing "just like
Reed" with his wife playing an ac-
compartment on the piano. He had
not proceeded very far when his better
half stopped playing and informed
him that he had lost bis "key,. ="
Instead of making any back talk, as
some musicians would have been
tempted to do, Mr.. Bailey very
graciously and meekly replied: 81
guess you're right; start over again. -
A new start was taken and the song
was sung in manner which must
have been highly satisfactory to the
audience aAPn its confusion he was
the recipient of a beautiful and large
boquet of carnations, while the APP
plause did not cease until he appeared
and sang another production. This
one was applauded also, and won for
him another boquet. While it was
not so handsome or so fragrant as the
first one it was more useful as it was
composed of enough vegetables to
supply his family for a week. AS a
fun maker Mr.. Bailey proved a great
success.
A fencing bout between Messrs.
Fournier and McMahon was a very
graceful and skillful affair receiving
the plaudits of the audience, the
credit for the greatest number of
points being won by Mr.. Fournier
Mr.. Hildebrand, another musician,
new to Prescott audiences followed
with vocal solo entitled "Sunset, "
by Dudley Buck. Mr.. HildehIand has
a beautiful baritone voice we'll under
control and was accorded a most
hearty encore.
The programme closed with the
Shakespearean farce entitled "Place

ceiling their former rendition of this

by Mansfield Il Nolan Was served, after
which a social dance was INDUCED in

"Last at Appomatox'' is
Settled.
THE SPOT LOCATED
North CaroIinians Visit the Famous
Field aud a Tablet Will Show
Where North Carolina Sol
diers Fired the Last
voIieY.

North Carolina is now in possession
of the solid facts to prove that the
soldiers of the State who wore the grey
were Last at ApDomattox."
First at Bethel. Furthest at Gettys-
burg and Chickamauga. Last at Apo
mattox'' is the proud record of North
Carolina soldiery of the Civil War. ana
within the week the exact spot at APP
pomattoX has been located.
Last Friday Hon. H. A. London. of
Pittsboro, Associate Justice w. A.
Montgomery and Mayor A. M. Powell,
of Raleigh, all of whom were at the
surrender at AppomattoX, left Raleigh
for that place. They went to identify
the spot from which the last volley
was fired by North Carolina troops.
With them went Mr.. W. j. Peele, of
Raleigh, of the State Literary and His
torical Association. and they were met
there by Mr.. w. T. Jenkins, of Halifax
county. who was a member of Col. X.
T. Benefits Fourteenth North Caro-
lima. These gentlemen spent a day
and half at Appomattox and went
over the whole ground.
They recognized the positions Occu-
pied by the North Carolina troops ana
their report shows the absolute accu-
racy of the claim made that the last
volley at ADDomattoX was by North
Carolinians.
A map will be prepared from the re-
port these gentlemen have prepared
and being duly engraved will appear in
the pamphlet to be issued replying to
the adverse charges made by Judge
Christian. of Virginia.
The committee was shown over TIL:
battlefield by Clerk of the Court of
Halifax, George T. Peers, who was first.
elected to that position in 1860 and has
been the clerk ever since, with two
years yet to serve. his continued SER
vice being thus far forty-four years.
He is absolutely familiar with the
| field, has visited it time and again. and
confirms the location as recognized by
the committee.
There will be a tablet placed upon
| the spot, showing where the North
CaroIinans fired the last volley. The
land on which the army was located.
l, 500 acres, was bought up by synd1-
cate some years ago with the hope that
| it would be made park by, the Uni
ted States government Just as has been
done at Gettysburg. but their eXDec-
tations being disappointed it passed
into the possession of a gentleman now
living in Washington City. His mana
ger assured the committee that they
would have no difficulty in securing
the spot on which to erect a tablet
marking where the last volley was
fired, and this by North Carolina
troops.
Thus history is kept straight ana
North Carolina shows to the world
that her claims are based upon "the
truth. the whole truth, and nothing
but the truth"

RAISED THOUSAND DOLLARS.
Special Collections in Two Baptist
Churches on Sunday.

At the Tabernacle Baptist church
and at the First Baptist Sunday school
special collections were taken on Sum
day and the responses were generous
Rev. DIR. r. j. Willingham, of Rich
mond, Va. secretary of the Southern
Baptist Foreign Mission Board,
preached the morning hour at the
Baptist Tabernacle, delivering a strong
sermon on Foreign Missions. A col
lection was taken and about 1915 was
realized, all of which goes to foreign
mission work of the Baptist church.
This amount has since been increased
to $1,000, in answer to the request OF
Pastor Massee. who preached the clos
ing service of the continued meeting
on Sunday night.
AT a special collection for the benefit
of the fever stricken inmates of the
Orphanage taken Sunday
