TOBACCO BARN AT INDIA
is DESTROED BY FIRE

The fifth Henry County farmer to
lose his tobacco barn by fire this year
was Henry Hudgins, whose barn near
India was burned Tuesday afternoon
destroying his entire crop of splen-
did tobacco, also a large amount of
corn and hay, There was no insur-
ance, and Mr. Hudgins suffered loss
Of not less than one thousand dol
lar- The barn, as have most of the
others, caught fire when the owner
was firing his tobacco. Continued
dry weather is probably responsible
for the readiness with which the fire
spreads to barns and contents.

MUSIC
FULLY DEVELOPED
Miss Edith Macdonald Captivates
Audience Here In Collaboration
With Photograph.

A mystifed and thoroughly de-
lighted audience at the Presbyterian
church, Wednesday evening enjoyed
perhaps the most UNIQUE and enjoya-
BILE concert ever given in Paris. The
large audience who heard that ex-
cellent soprano, Miss Edith MacDon-
aid, accompanied by Miss Olive Rob-
ertson, pianist, and Charles Young,
violinist, in competition with the re-
created music on the New Edison,
were truly convinced that the New
Edison is "phonograph with
SOUL 20 indistinguishable was the
cabinet music from the original
Music lovers of the town are in
debted to J R Spicer, Edison dealer,
for arranging such pleasing recital,
such as has entertained immense au-
dience,3 in Chicago, New York and
the larger cities.
IN her initial program number,
Starlight Love" by DeEni, the ar
tist, Miss Edith Macdonald, who pos
sesses charming musical personal
ity, apparently ceased to sing, be-
cause her lips remained immovable,
yet the pleasing tones of the song
continued, and the delighted audience
when it realized that the. re-created
voice of Miss Macdonald was sing
ing to them from the New Edison,
burst into an immense and apprecia-
tive applause at the clever hoax
Throughout the enjoyable program,
it was only by watching the singer,
that one knew when the living artist
or her fello. smusiciam the New
Edison, was singing. The instfu-
merit produced neither echo nor i'm
itation, but "the real thing" and
likewise in competition with Mr.
Young in re-created violin solos, and
Miss Robertson on the piano, was
the difference undiscernable.
The wizard Edison, had he been
present at the Presbyterian church
on Wednesday evening, would have
been satisfied that the reIu of his
years of labor to achieve so perfect
musical instrument, that it would
re-create original music, had been
assuringly and successfully exempli-
fed to Paris audience.
1t might be thought by those not
attending the musicale, that there
would have been at least a slight diff
ference in the volume of the artist
and the phonograph music, but 1t
We ret noticeable to those hearing
the concert, for all tones which came
from the cabinet were round and lus-
cious, and contained all the vibrant,
pulsating quality of those coming
directly from Miss McDonalds throat
or the piano or the violin,
When the lights were turned out,
it was impossible to distinguish
whether the music came from instru-
ment or artist.
The selected numbers by Miss Mac
Donafd, Mr.. Young and Miss Robert
son, featuring popular and old-favor-
lite songs were keenly enjoyed by
the appreciative audience, who lot
I'd down the name of this or that rec
ord to purchase for their "New Edi-

nique is admirable, and is only equal
ed by that of the New Edison.

and sircere New Edison appreciation
in the hearts of the music lovers Of
