entered the store through the
window of the Office and moved
about in the store, where two
electric lights were turned Oh,

himself. to such stuff as he

just yet all that he carried
away. He was seen by some
negro boys who were standing
in front of Mr.. Luther Caldwell's
store, and they called John
Leach, yr., and later Mr.. FL,
wood Whaley's attention was
called to the man moving about
in the store. An effort was

AT a recent meeting of the

Mr.. r. M. Norment was appoint

AT THE OPERA HOUSE,

0dNS a EESNty OEuAAAES EcE"
fOrmance-Seats at the Opera
House too Close Together for
Comfort.
The Colonial Opera Company
held the boards at the Opera
House Thursday evening before
an audience that packed the
house by $50 expecting to see a
really good musical comedy and
went away two hours later very
much disappointed.
There is no pleasure at all in
criticising show adversely and
if this company had come to
Lum berton sailing under true
colors and had frankly stated
that fairly good popular-price
show would be put on, there
would be no occasion for knock
ing it mucL, but to hold the PEG
pie up for 81. 90 per to see as sor-
ry a show as that is about the
limit. 1t really wasn't any great
shakes as popular price show.
The bill was "A Trip to India. -
There really is not much use in
saying anything more about it.
The women were impossible, the
whole push of them. 1t is very
sad about Miss Mamie Elmore,
the young lady who shipped as a
sailor lad. 1t is only fair and
just to say that she perhaps does
not mean any harm by it-just
trying to get along, as the fellow
said who got caught cheating in
a card game. And the same
might be said of the rest. A
few passable hits we're made and
the "Trocadero" quartette was
all right, and that is all that c&a
be justly said in praise of the
performance.
No indeed, it was not worth
the price. 1t was a pretty ordi-
nary show.
The seats in the Opera House
are exceedingly uncomfortable,
the way they are arranged. The
seats are jammed so close tc
gether that short legged per
son has TO sit with his knees
showed up against the back Of
the seat in front, and a long-leg-
ged person has to sit with his
knees up under his chin Either
that, or you must sit sideways
and the one next to you has tC
sit sideways, and so on down the
the line, and then if one person
gets tired sitting on one side
the whole push on that particu
lar bench has to wiggle around
the other way. One naturally
snpposes that the idea in having
the benches so close together is
to save space, which is an item
of course, but it should not be
saved 10 the point of torture. II
is to be hoped that this matter
I will be remedied, and doubtless
it will be under the present
management, who has jus
taken charge. There is no sor
of use in having the benches 81
close together that your knees
are wedged so tight against thu
back of the bench in front tina
you must prize your dress o.
breaches away when it is time tt
