4 Word About Money.

Our subscribers will bear witness that
we do not often call on them for money
through the paper, and not at all except
during the season when everybody is
supposed to have money. We are not
always ding donging at them to pay up
and they know that when we do call on
them we mean it. But we must have
money to run our business We have
obligations to be met like other people
and these require the ready cash. In 60
ing over our books we find that some of
our good friends have allowed their sub
scriptiOn to get too far behind In this
perhaps we are as much to blame as they
are. However, this is a request to all
those who are in arrears to pay up. Do
not wait for a statement but come in
and leave.a little money with US to lubri-
cate the machinery of business. We can
not send the paper longer to anyone who
owes for two years or more unless they
pay up.
We have quite a number OF subscribers
in distant States and in distant counties
0! this State, who cannot come to the
Office. We ask those to send US remit
lance at once. The figures on your ad-
dress label indicate the time to which
your subscription is paid. For instance
16 Oct. 'O4, shows that you owe for one
year. If in arrears the amount may be
ascertained without making enquiry at
the office. When remittance is made the
figures are changed showing the date to
whatever time paid for. Examine your
label and see that proper credit is given.

Educational Day at Bearpond.

Contributed.
The new public school at Bearpond
started off Monday, October 18th,
with an enrolment of 70. This was
a pleasant surprise to all the friends
of the school. There has been
good deal OF opposition to the con-
solidation, yet it is hoped that the
successful work that has begun will
soon overcome all OF this
The friends of the school met at
the handsome new building on Mon
day to give the new teachers a send
Off Prof. J. B. Carlysle Of Wake
Forest, came down and delivered an
address full of wisdom and eloquence
which was listened to with marked
appreciation by the splendid audi
ence. Prof. Carlysle's words will lin
ger long in the minds of those who
heard and many a young heart will
find encouragement, i'll the years to
come, from the eloquent appeals to
high and noble things.
There were several short talks made
during the day by superintendent
]. c. Kittrell, Andrew j. Harris and
other visiting friends of the school.
1t was really amusing to see Dr.R.J.
Gill, who as everybody knows is the
best loved man in the Bearpond sec
ton, slip out of the window and
vamOOse when the crowd called on
him for a speech.
The string band enlivened the day
with occasional music and many a
good brothers foot was seen to pat
as the strains of some well remem-
bered Jig came to his ears. The
Bearpond picnic dinner was an en-
| joyable part of the day. All who
have had the good fortune to be at Il
Bearpond barbecue know what the
dinner was. Others must draw hare
on their imaginations and confess
that they cannot attain to it. Al
together it was day OF good things
and it was good to be there.

DonneiIy 4 Hatfield's Ministries.

Much was promised OF Donnelly l.
Hatfield's Ministries and they ''made
good" at Cooper Opera House Mon
day night. No better minstrel at
traction ever held the boards here 1t
was the finest overland the audience
was record breaker under Manager
Aronson's management. They played
to three hundred dollar house, and
it is safe to say there was not a dis
appointed person in the house. The
opening first part was brilliant and
gorgeous setting. Owing to the
small size Of the stage all of the
special scenery carried by the COM
pany could not be used.
The star features were the Tuscano
Brothers, Roman battle axe iugglers,
and the Toledo Troupe, lie Baron
and Shelvey Brothers, for in number)
spectacular novelty gymnasts and
contortionists, all of whose work was
very clever and of the highest order
of skill and finish The comedians,
Tommy Donnelly, Lee Edmunds and
Arthur Crawford were great and kept
the audience i'll Il roar of laughter by
their comic songs and inimitable acts.
Crawford and Filming in their must
cal comedy were very good and af
forded no end of fun THE Meeting
of the Trustees" was an amusing and
laughable negro sketch, while 1.-THE
Darktown Circus was hilarious
and pleasing finale of a very enjoya
BILE performance.
The Donnelly & Hatstield Ministries
stand at the top of modern minstrel
sly. The show gave the very best OF
satisfaction to patrons, and will fill
the Opera House again whenever they
return.
The music was an enjoyable fea-
ture. They carry splendid band
and a good orchestra.

Bad Behavior at the Opera House.

Comment is made on the bad be-
havior at the Opera House whenever
there is a play there. Shrieking
screams, shrill whistles and other
evidences of hoodlum are uncalled
for and should not be INDUCED. Some
persons seem to have an idea that
the more boisterous they are the
more they show appreciation. Ger
tainly they cannot expect to be APP
preciated by it. Laughter and APP
plause is one thing but unseemly con-
duct and utter disregard OF the pres
ence and feelings of Others is another
Manager Aronson wishes it under
stood that good order will be pre-
served hereafter if the offenders have
to be elected. A polite request will
be made and if this does not have
the desired effect the services of a
policeman will be invoked, the per-
son or persons misbehaving put out
and their money returned.
