Since Mr. Hamiter has an nounced his intention of taking the Governor chair every time there is the occasion, we think 1t would, perhaps, be better for the country for Governor Pin dall to withdraw from the race for Delegate-at Large to the National Convention, and stay at home. Mir Hamiter may be a very conscientious man, but he has such peculiar views that the country does not care to risk him in the Governors of flee. His ideas are too extrava- gant for the hard times.

Ed Price Manned.

It has just become known here that
Ed Price was married Monday, March
%, to Miss Mora Martynne at Par
kersburg, West Virginia, This was
a great surprise to Mr.. Prices friends
here, who knew that he was con-
'templating m%atrimony ultimately,
but had no idea of his immediate
plans.
Ed Price is exceedingly popular in
Lexington, where he was reared from
childhood For some years he has
been on the road playing trombone
for various organizations. This win
ter he spent at home and was the
leading juvenile in +" The Fall Guy"
which the Elks presented here Feb
ruary II. He made such a pro-
nounced hit that on the advice of
friends he will soon enter the dra-
matte field professionally. This sum
mer, however, he will continue as a
trombone player.
His bride is now on the stage.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Price are mem
bers Of Markle's Sunny South COM
pany, which plays in a floating sum-
mer theatre.

Base BAN PrOspects for nlgh SchOOI.


If the present prospects hold good,
the Lexington High School base ball
team this season will be one Of the
best that ever represented that in
stitution on the diamond. The team
contains many of the veterans of last
year and there are several new
corners that are doing splendid work.
The management of the team has re-
ceivsd many challenges from out-of-
town teams and some of these will be
accepted.
There r two candidates for the
catcher's position, Wallace and Sill,
both Of whom do well behind the bat.
Barnett viii do the greater part of
the pill heaving, assisted by Harrison
and in the minor games, Rice. Bour
viii hold down the short stop position
Bour was one Of the fastest felders
on last years team and has developed
greatly since then. Doc Harwood will
be seen on the initial sack, Vaughn,
a newcomer from Dover will take
care of second, and Harrison viii be
placed on third. The team has a
strong out-6eldin Morris, left, Bates,
center and Rice, right.
Suits for the team have been or
dered and will arrive in a few days,
They are blue and red.

Local Option Speaking.

Rev. James N. Crutchsr of Hig-
ginsville, president of the Lafayette
County Anti-saloon league, addressed
a good sized audience in the lower
room of the court house Saturday
afternoon. Although the talk was
intended primarily for farmers, agood
many people from town were present.
Mr.. Crutcher devoted most Of his
time to tearing down the arguments
in the printed matter, which the
wet" forces have been distributing.
His most startling assertion was that
if the saloons in the county we're
put out of business and the total
amount of county taxation we're to
remain the same, the increase in
taxes on real estate and personal
property would be only I mills on the
800 valuation.

Argonia Open Session a Rare treat.

The large audience that came to
Murrell Auditorium at the open ses-
sion of the Argonia Literary Society
Monday evening was more than re-
paid for venturing out in such dis
agreeable weather. The program
that was offered by the society was
well selected, e%xcellently rendered
and thoroughly appreciated,
The invocation was pronounced by
Rev. A. F. Smith. The first number,
the rendition of the Argonia song by
a chorus of nineteen voices, gave a
wonderful impetus to the success of
the evening. The song itself is re-
plete with the sentiment of loyalty
and devotion to the Society and the
harmonious blending of the voices
made it doubly beautiful.
"The Wrong Package a board
ing-school sketch, fitted admlrbly
into Central atmosphere and was not
untrue to life. Miss Bess Marshal
as Miss Boggs, the head of the in
stitution, was equal to her task and
made her Characterization so real
that size received very little sympa-
thy from the audience. Misses
Corinne Baldwin and Belle Graves
awoke many pleasant recollections
in the minds of the gallery in their
portrayal of the schoolgirls busy
with schoolgirl pranks. Miss Clara
Hughes was a good maid.
The violin duet by Misses Bernice
Davis and Elya Clark thrilled the
audience to rapt attention. The sec
ond selection, "Traum der SEN
nerin," was particularly enhancing
No one was immune when Misses
blackburn and Mcclure mounted the
platform to tell their aCentral Cos
sip.p Faculty, students, cadets and
down town celebrities all Jared alike
in their clever, interesting and perth
nent dialogue.
Again the chorus delighted the
audience with two selections, "Fairy-
land Waltz" and Loves Old Sweet
Song" Both we're examples of care
full training and conscientious effort.
Miss Edna Eichelberger cleverly
depicted the ever-pryiug busybody in
her reading of the 1.-THE Village
Oracle Her encore was we'll
merited.
The popularity of Miss Pauline
Sellers was clearly attested by the
round Of applause that greetedhe
when she made her appearance. Her
well trained voice showed to advant-
age in her two numbers and the en-
core she 50 graciously rendered.
"a Social Pariah.n the reading by
Miss Bess Marshall, bespoke pains
taking preparation and the dramatic
ability by the successsul rendition of
so difficult a piece. "Kith and KIM
proved to be a catchy encore.
The piano q~uartette by Misses
Hurt, Mcclure, Corl and Rucker,
while a trifle lengthy for a closing
number, was an artistic piece Of
work. The skill of the performers in
handling the difficult music Won the
applause Of the audience.
Professor Warren received ovation
after ovation throughout the enter
tainment, His gracious smiles took
the audience by storm.
The stage was artistically decorate
ed with remnants, which with the
tasteful arrangement Of furniture
and pillows gave it a decidedly col
egy air. h.
