OPENING OF GREENWOOD
THEATRE.

The opening of the Greenwood
Theatre teens with promise to be the
most auspcious event of many seasons
in the Queen City of the Delta. !"
In the first place, the prettiest, most
magnificent and most modernly ap-
pointed playhouse is to be auspiciousiy
opened with a corking good comedy,
and one of the celebrated theatre
orchestras Of the South is to add har-
mony to the brilliance of the event.
Day and night crews are working
indefatigably towards having the new
opera house in readiness for the OPEN
ing attraction, "The Love Affair, 1"
and Messrs Walden q Co. are receiv-
ing open praise from all sources for
their splendid work and the rapdity
with which it is being rushed to com
pletion. A good inspection of this
playhouse will prove to you that Green
wood has the most sumptuOus thespian
quarters for good shows of any city in
the state, and it is an Improvement for
which we are all duly grateful.
The management Of the theatre has
secured the services Of Saxby's Band.
of Memphis, for the opening attrac-
tion, in which love comedy Miss Ade-
laide Thurston appears in her most
appropriate role. Saxby's orchestra is
one of the cleverest attractions of the
Lyceum's programmes in Memphis,
and visit to the opening show will be
well repaid by the pleasure in hearing
this splendid orchestra The manage
ment has gone to an exorbitant ex-
pense to make this date big event,
and are receiving hearty cooperation
from all tbs theatre-goihg people Of
the city.
Already a splendid sale has been
made of advance seats for the opening
attraction, but if you haven't purchased
yours for that night. do so at once; and
don't let there be vacant seat on the
night of the 10th, for when, such a
splendid improvement as this has been
given our city we should literally re-
spond by taxing the house to its utmost
when the curtain makes its
initial rise January 10th.

Judge Clayton's Charge to Mon
roe Couny Grand Jury.

The Judge had been sick for
several days, and feeling decided
ly under the weather, asked the
indulgence of the the grand jury
as he left the bench and came
down into the bar to deliver his
charge; and then he opened and
proceeded and finished, and when
he got through-and it was not
by any means a brief effort, it
was generally agreed by the
large audience in attendance,
that it was the ablest, best and
most interesting legal and COM
mon sense discourse they ever
listened to in that ancient court
room. No one wants to see the
learned Judge on the sick list,
but if ever taken bad again they
hope it will be on a similar oc-
cassion, for it resulted Monday
in a discourse rather than a
charge. that bodied the codes
requirements without the codes
insipid recitals of twice told
tales" and held the interest of
jurors and outsiders tensely to
the end. 1t is a job for a Titan
to master the index to that pom
derous tome, and we all rejoiced
when he boiled its platitudes
down to a palatable essense, and
mingled law. common sense and
with the dry-as-dust repast. :
