Improvements at the Opera
House.

improvements are being made
at the opera house which will add
greatly both to the comfort and
safety of it's patrons. A stairway
will be built to the room on the
left of the entrance and from this
room an entrance for colored peo-
pie will be cut to Elm street. An
other stairway will be built to the
gallery, making four stairways
in the front part of the house,
which will provide better means
of entrance and exit and>will also
provide for complete separation
of the races. The door in
the hallway leading to the
stairway on the right has been
moved in order to make larger
box Office. A partition will be
extended across the rear of the
hall to the gallery. The window
in the center of the stage will be
converted into a door and from
this a stairway is being built to
Sixth street. Mention has been
made of the fact that opera
chairs have been purchased.
These have already arrived, and
when the changes now under
way have been completed and
the chairs placed the opera house
will be comfortable and safe.
In making these changes
Messrs. French and McAllister
are meeting a long-felt need and
it is to be hoped that their enter
prise will be rewarded by the lib
eral patronage of the public.
They are making arrangements
to secure some first-class attrac-
tons for the coming fall and
spring.

REPUBLICAN COUNTY CON.
VENTION.
Held in Lumberton Yesterday
Full Ticket Nominated.


The Republican county conven-
ton was held in the opera house
here yesterday as per the call is
sued and quite a good crowd of
the faithful was present. The
convention was called to order at
noon by Mr.. W. J.Currie, of Max
ton, chairman of the county ex-
ecutive committee, and he called
on Col. S. A. Edmund, of Lum-
berton, to act as temporary chair
man and Mr.. B. F. Mclean, of
MaxtOn, was asked to act as
secretary. The calling of the
roll of townships revealed the
fact that Is townships were re-
presented at the start and later
delegates came in from the other
townships, so that every town.
ship was represented and every
voting precinct except Thomp-
sons No. l. There were a few
brothers in black in the rear of
the hal and in the gallery, but
they did not figure at all in the
proceedings.
In assuming the chair Col.
Edmund said that he was not
we'll and was not prepared to
make a speech, but he spoke for
quite a spell and he made rous-
ing good speech, too. He rapid
ly reviewed national and State
politics since 1892, drawing COM
fort and encouragement there
from, touched slightly upon local
conditions and urged that a
strong ticket be nominated, proph-
esying that the men nominated
would preside over the affairs of
the county for the next two
years. At the conclusion of his
speech a committee composed of
one member from each township
was appointed to draw up resolu-
tons and platform, and the con-
vention adjourned to meet at 8
o'clock in the afternoon.
At the afternoon session the
following ticket was nominated:
Senator's. A. Edmund; House
of Representatives-W. H. Kin
law, Lumberton, Archie D. Nc
Lean, Alfordsville; sheriff L. E.
Tyner, Lowe; treasurer-D. E.
McBryde, Blue Springs; register
of deeds-E. G. Johnson, St.
Paul; county commissioners-An An
gus Currie, Maxton; A. L. Jones,
Fairmont; Robt. A. McEachern,
Lumber Bridge; W. G. Mclean,
Smiths; ]. P. Price, Sterling's.
The committee on platform and
resolutions did not complete its
report and there being no further
business before the convention ii
adjourned. 1t is the general
opinion that the Republicans have
put out a pretty good ticket, a
ticket composed of good, strong
men who, although they will lead
a forlorn hope, will put up a good
fight.
