1t would really look better if the
town council would obey the law that
requires the publication of a detailed
financial statement. There are people
who would like to know how the af-
fairs of the town stand.
= The heavy rains of last Friday af-
ternoon and night operated to put
check on business, but" as Cashier
McMurray of the Loan and Savings
bank puts it, lit is only a temporary
set back. All will come in due course"
DR.. Miles Walker, chairman of the
board of health, states that the state
ment that there was division of opin-
ion among the local physicians as to
the advisability of closing the graded
school on account of the diphtheria
scare was incorrect for, as a matter of
fact, the physicians Of the town were
and are a unit in the belief that there
was no need for a suspension of the
exercises of the school.
The unfavorable weather last Fri
day night interfered somewhat with
the complete success of what was
most enjoyable occasion. The only
drawback was that the attendance
was not as full as it might have been,
or as full as it would have been had
the weather been more favorable. The
reference is to the birthday party that
was given at the residence of Mrs. S.
c.. Ashe by the Winnie Davis Chapter,
United Daughters of the Confederacy.
In spite of continued rain about fifty
guests were out, and they enjoyed
delightful evening. Refreshments were
served. consisting of a salad course
and hot coffee. Everybody present en-
joyed the occasion to the utmost. The
object of the entertainment was to
ing Confederate graves, and the pro-
ceeds amounted to SIS. Under more
propitious weather conditions receipts
would have hardly been less than $50.
1t is a settled fact that the people
of Yorkville are going to give gen.
erous welcome to the opening OF the
opera house tonight. Up to last Sat-
urday night, Manager Johnson had
sold more than a hundred reserved
seat tickets, and that probably beats
all records for sales so far ahead or
the coming of a show. The sale or
seats continued through yesterday and
this morning and will go right on to
the opening Of the doors tonight, un-
less everything shall have been taken
before then, and this is not improba-
BILE. But this generous response is not
altogether because Of the fact that to-
night is the opening night of the
new opera house. The show is good
one-one of the best that has ever been
to Yorkville. In fact it is the Char
lOIle, NIldiIcS -Ne
gusta class, and is well worth while.
Here is the way the Columbia State of
last Sunday heralds it's coming to CO.
lumbia on October Is, after the York
vile people shall have seen it tonight:
Good plays, like wine, improve with
age. This is certainly true of the mar
velously successful melodrama, HUI

play this season comprises all of last
years favorites, and wherever a part
could be improved upon the change

never before has this beautiful play
been so we'll presented. Human
Hearts" gives pure, wholesome lesson
that touches the eart-strings in the
pathetic scenes and eXcites the risi-
bilities in the humorous ones. The
pathos and comedy are so well blended
that the audience is in tears one mo-

thing possible to insure a first-class
