At the Opera House.

The Crescent Comedy Co will I'LL q
weeks engagement at the Folk opera
house, commencing Monday, January 15.
This organization, the principals of which
are not strangers here, have received
much favorable comment from the press
and public alike, and will doubtless draw
large attendance during their engage
ment. The initial Offering on Monday
evening will be the pleasing four act
comedy drama, "The Turn.of the Dice," |"
the scenes of which are laid in New York
and Cripple Greek, Colo. The story is
one compelling interest, replete with crisp
dialogue, strong situations, quick action
and pure humor, while the climaxes
never fail to bring down the house. The
piece has good moral, and contains
several strong character types, and gives
each member of sthe excellent cast an
opportunity of contributing to the pleas
ure of the audience. Aside from the
merriment and good feeling occasioned
by witnessing this charming presentation,
uncommonly good specialties, including
the celebrated Hawthorne Sisters, Carl
and E. L. Been, and marvellous moving
pictures, will be rendered between acts.
Popular prices will prevail. Ladies free

A Visit to Bamberg.

By the way, it was my privilege recent
ly to pay short visit to the soil so dear
to my heart. For this great pleasure /
am indebted to the Baptist saints of Bam-
berg, at whose instance I preached there
on the first Sabbath in December. I
found them noble band. My heart lin
gerszwith them. Could I have seen other
wise, might have been in the way of
the Fostering care, I understand they are
about to enjoy. Tell him, dear Courier,
to take good care Of that flock, which
care they so much Deserve cor he may
hear in no very distant day-not the mar
riage bells, no doubt his wish (?) but some
other kind, B. to his sorrow. May
Gods special blessings be ever upon that
new pastor and his noble people, the
saints of Bamberg.-J. A. Bell in the
Baptist Courier.

Cost Of the White House.

The White House, the residence of the
president and his family, up to date has
cost about 5000 coo, of which nearly
one-third has been paid for furniture and
interior decorations. Originally the
state of Virginia gave 1000 to build
it, Maryland adding $72,000. To main.
tain the White House costs from $25, 600
to $4,000 q year, the appropriation for
this purpose varying considerably. But
every now and then there is something
extra to be paid for, and congress is call.
The biggest pull of. this kind ever made
was for $3.50 900, which was spent two
years ago in q partial reconstruction Of
the interior and in the addition of wing
like terraces and an Office building. 5Ev-
cry now and then new set of china has
to be provided, and usually that costs
about $15, 900.

THAT EXPRESS ROBBERY.
The Pouch from Augusta That Contained $4,000
and Which Is Missing Was Transferred
at Columbia.

COLUMBIA, January Sit has just been
discovered that $4,000 has been stolen
from the Southern or Adams Express
companies. The money was sent from
Augusta and consigned to New York,
and was trans.erred in Columbia. For
this reason. an investigation is being
made here, as well as in Washington and
New York. The money and, it is said
other vaiuables, were in a pouch shipped
from Augusta In Columbia the express
from Augusta is always transferred to the
Jacksonville-New York express and again
transferred to the Adams Express Com
pany, in Washington, for shipment to
New York. The money was transferred
here last Saturday, and last Monday,
when the pouch should have been deliv-
cred in New York it was missing. The
express officials claim that the seal was
intact when the pouch was delivered
there unless person had duplicate seals,
and for that reason the investigation now
going on there is most rigid.
81 Mr. T: w. Leary, the general manager
of the Southern Express Company, is
now in Columbia, with his private secre-
! tary, Mr. 81. N. McC cCollough. The head
quarters are in Atlanta, and the fact that
@offcials are here, shows that the inves-
I stiaation has started in Columbia.
Mr.. cCollough was seen this morn
ing. II know nothing about the affair,
only Just what the newspapers have al
ready published" he said. Mr.. Mccol.
{ longh admitted that the money was miss
Ing, and that an investigation was now
being made. The receipts all along the
line showed up correctly, but generally
happens in yobberies Of this kind. "The
smoneY was simply transferred here from

extent. We enjoyed his confidence to
some degree and our friendship has ex~
tended uninterruptedly through the last
seven years. We say truly that we have
never known q more high-minded, patri-
otic, brave and true man. He squared
his actions towards all mankind by the
rules of faith, love and charity, and he /,
bore malice to no man. His actions were
always open and above board, and he
spoke his mind freely and frankly on
men and measures when the necessity
arose. Maj. Hays was no policy man.
He never did anything for effect. Once
satisfied that line Of duty was right snd
just, he followed It fearlessly and cone
sistently. We sometimes differed on
matters of q public nature, but It never
in the least affected the cordiality Of our
relations. We often went to him for cd

without any quibble.
Although notla public speaker, he was
one Of the most interesting takers Ne.
ever listened to. He read great deal
and was we'll informed on the leading.

Had he lived until next June he would
have been seventy years old. Thus ends

mistakes-who does not? But he lived 8
high-toned, honorable life. facing prob

but because it was right. He loved his
town, his county, his State, and, above
all, his fellow man, and he viii be- sadly
missed by us all. 81.
