Took Him for a Preacher.

MIR. Andrew j. Harris attended the
Annual Conference of the Methodist
Protestant church at High Point,
and some of the laymen took him to
he a preacher-because he spoke 40
we'll, the Church Record says, but We
suspect it was that beaver hat and
clerical cut coat that he wore. How
ever, we will let Brother McCulloch
have his say about it:
Bro. A. j. Harris came to Conference
sorely afflicted in bodily way, but he
bore up under his affection remarkably
well. In fact, he spoke so well that some
OF the laymen mistook him for a preach
er mot knowing that he is alawyer) and
wanted to engage him, it is said. for their
next pastor.

The Beggar Prince.

Rarely has finer amusement at
traction visited Henderson than the
"Beggnr Prince" which was seen at
Cooper Opera House last Friday
night. Those who did not witness
this bright and catchy musical COM
edy missed a real treat. 1t was the
superb production OF company OF
talented artists. The piece was we'll
staged and presented in a we'll nigh
faultless manner. The singing of
Miss Eta Merris and Mr.. Harry
ieavelle was of a high order while
the choruses were very good. Mr..
Robert Stanley lacked nothing as the
"Beggar Prince" while Mr.. Fred
Godding as Rocco, his grand cham
berlain, was equally fine in his
part. They were an inimitable
pair of comedians and kept the aud
fence in a constant roar of laughter.
It was a pleasing and enjoyable per-
Torrance throughout and the an
nouncement that the company would
make a return date in the near future
was received with applause.
