''The Leopard SpOts.'

Thomas Dixons first great literary
success, "The Leopard's Spots" con-
sidered mis- masterpiece, has at last
been. dramatized by the author and
wiu.:be >sae en- here on November II at
the Newberry opera house.
Mr.. Dixon claims that: this. book
gave the South a voice in the forum
of the world, expressing the long silent
Southern feeling which scorned ma
tional public opinions and defied eff
forts to change social conditions by
law. The play is thrilling to the ex-
treme, differing now and then from
the book in order to present more
forcibly the fact that the negro can
never be received on social equali-
ty with the. white race: 1t is the mod
ern negro problem which he exposes
this time. There is an intermingling
of romance, love and comedy which
adds to the enjoyment of the perform
ance. y
"The Leopard's Spots will be pre-
sented here under the personal di-
rection of the author.

COLLEGE NOTES.

P. C. OF S. C, versus Newberry is
the main topic Of conversation around
the college at present and everything
is rapidly being put in readiness for
the contest between these two old
rivals which will be staged in Colum-
bia Wedns sday 29th at the fair
grounds. Indications are that large
crowd from Newberry will be on hand
as practically the entire student body
will go down and attend the game in
body. The C. N. & l.. special will
pass through .NeWberry at 7.45 Wed
nesday morning, returning to leave Co.
lumbia at about six o'clock. Fare for
round trip, including admission to the
fair grounds is $205. Admission to
game: general admission soc and -75c;
grandstand $100; box seat for six
$1,000 single box, seat $1.75. General
admission tickets may be purchased
in Newberry from Messrs. Yonce,
Oates and G. B. Derrick of the col
lege. Grandstand and box seat tickets
may be purchased or reserved at Abb
bots Cigar store in Columbia. The
game begins promptly at II o'clock.
The two teams are in fine shape for
the battle and fast, and hard-fought
game is sure to take place for when
Newberry and P. c., tackle each other
there is sure to be some kind of fight
on hand Nothing much can be learn
ed of the Presbyterian strength as
they have only played one game, de-
feating B. NJ. l. 300 with gale blow
ing over the field. All reports are
very optimistic over the squad and
there is no doubt but that Coach Booa
will have bunch Of scrappers to
line up against Newberry.
The Newberry Indians have been
tested and found to be there with tae
necessary amount of goods as was
shown by the results.of the Furman
game of last week This game show
ed that Coach Thomas has rounded
his squad into a finely organized ma
chine that is able to make trouble for
anything in the State. The team will,
however, be weakened a little by the
absence Of Brooks, the star center who
is at present laid up with malaria at
his home. 1t is not thought tnat he will
be able to get into the game Wednes-
day but that he will be in shape for
the Davidson game Saturday. Brooks
place will be filled by Hipp, and Bob
has shown himself to be early as
good as Brooks when it comes to
tackling and holding the line. The
remaining members of the squad are
in fine physical shape, with the excep-
tion of S. Baker who is troubled with
a sore shoulder, but who will be seen
in action Wednesday.
The backfield will start with R.
Baker and Captain: Floyd; "halfbacks,
Big Fulmer at full, and the team
will be run by Mclean at Quarter.
Wise, Nichols, and Boland will be
ready as sub-backfeld men and the
above compose a backfeld that will
be hard to beat in the State.
.Crotwell will be seen on one md
with S. Baker or Reuken on the 9TH
er. stoudemayer and Derrick al tack
les, shealy and Deaton, filling the
guard positions, and Hipp a: center
are the personnel of the line that
walloped Furman TIT It's going to be
great game so why not come out
it 5 s; we'll worth the price of admission.

The Mind the Paint Girl"

Mis- Billie Burke will be the attraction
at the National Theater beginning a week
from tomorrow night. Her play this
season in Sir Arthur Pinero's latest
comedy. The Mind the Paint Girl"
In this piece the veteran playwright
pictures a day and half of the private
life, off the stage of a London musical
comedy star. 1t is an important period
in the young woman : life. for in the
course of il she is called upon to choose
between two men-one a man who has
ruined himself for her. although she is not
really to blame for it. and the other a
hne young chap with whom she is really
in love. The choice she makes is not eX-
actly the one "a girl of her sort might be
expected to make. but il is entirely con-
sistent with the character the play
wright has given her. According to all
accounts. Miss Burke gives a wonderfully
line and true impersonation of the girl.
In the earlier scenes there is plenty of
opportunity for the display of that pecu-
liar charm which is Miss Burke's charac-
teristic, and in the big climax of the
drama there is a chance to prove her
right TO place among the players of the
hrst rank.
