Il went to a Fifth venue church
last Sunday night" said a nan who is
good once a week, "and quite uneX-
pectedly got a new sensation. The
church was brilliantly lighted, but
something went wrong with the cleo
trical apparatus, and all of a sudden
most of the lights went out. Midway
In the building two or three punches
of bulbs continued to shed a sepul-
chural twilight, but the pulpit was
shrouded in darkness and nervous
members of the congregation began
to fidget.
This condition of affairs lasted fo7
some minutes, until the choir had fin
lshed an anthem. Then the preacher
arose and requested the people to re-
main quietly seated for half a minute
in total darkness, when the church
would be fully Illuminated again. With
the words the few remaining lights
went out, and for a space darkness
ike that of a coal hole prevailed.
ut was the weirdest, most uncanny
wait l ever had. Every mar and wom-
in of the tight hundred or a thousand
in that church was as still as death
almost. I suppose the darkness did
not last a minute, but 1t seemed to me
to be an hour. When the lights again
leaped out there was a sigh of relief
from every person in the church. |

The Beach & Bowers MINISTRIES, in
charge of ]. H. Smith, played to a well
filled house in Lead last evening. The
opening was excellent and the stage
setting as fine as ever has been seen
in Lead, and those who performed
were artists in their line. The opening
overture by the company was well re-
ceived, the band being an excellent
one. Solos by Earl Flynn, John Hig-
gins, Harry Perrill n Ben Horner
were above the ordinary, but when
Barney Mcconnell sang "Genevieve,"

necessary for him to respond to sew

The arrival of Sousa and his band
made the audience act like overgrown

inal with Beach & Bowers company,
surpasses all previous efforts in this
direction. The second part Of the pro-
gram was as good as the first. and

among which Carols Brothers human
springs easily ranked first. These men
are excellent acrobats and made a hit
with their speciality humorous features
which greatly amused the audience.
j. H. Smith, the manager of the COM

the kind that ranks first, and succeeds
admirably in his efforts. They have
appeared in Lead several times, and
the present attraction by far excels
that of any of their previous engage
