ABSOLUTELY PURE
WONDROUS WORKERS
Tlie Remarkable Entertainment at the
School for the Deaf.
THE FARCES ACTED IN PANTOMINF.
The Beautiful Posing Os Voiceless Chiklrtr
in Tableaux and Their Expert Drill
ing Calisthenics.
Prof. W. O. Connor and his corps of
trained assistants are doing a wonder
ful work at Cave Spring.
The closing exercises of the School
for the Deaf occurred yesterday; and
th' entertainment the night pre
vi >us was something to be remem
be ed.
The first on the program was dumb
bell exercises by twelve little girls un
d >r the direction of Miss Bayard Mor
g tn, the accomplished young teacher
of art and calisthenics who has done
so much for the school in the last six
months.
The exercise in the difficult and in
tricate manisfestations of the dumb
bells was wonderful and held the at
tention of the large audience.
Then followed a farce in pantomine,
“Keeping School,” which was irresti
bly amusing. It was enacted by Car
rie Terrell, the “School Mann,” Lovie
Frazier, “Art Pupil,” Bessie Thomp
s m and May Howell, “The Appli
cants” and John Killroy and George
Stallings as “The Clowns.” It brought
down the' house.
Equally beautiful was the “May
Pole Dance;” executed by twelve lit
tle girls in red, white, blue and yel
low.
“The Magic Flute” was an uproar
ious farce, the parts acted by John
Kilroy, Clifton Sessions, George Stal
ling Claude Russell, Henry Steel, Irby
Ma’Chinan, Walter Meynardie, Polk
Brady, Walter Christian.
It was in four acts and kept the au
dience in a roar from start to finish.
The tableau, “Diligent Students,”
was excellent and the “Indian Club
Drill,” by twelve girls was something
superb.
All the difficult marching, counter
marching, swinging and other move
ments were perfectly done, and ex
hibited a splendid degree of physical
and mental training.
“The Christmas Rose” was a touch
ing tableau in two scenes, and a
farce by four of the best actors fol
lowed, which elicited a storm of ap
plause.
The concluding tableau, “A Soul at
Stake,” was a vividly suggestive and
realistic scene. It was better than a
play, and Prof. Connor and his faith
ful assistants demonstrated in a most
excellent manner the wonderful skill
and training of their pupils, bereft of
speech or hearing.
They deserve the highest congratu
lations on their success for the past
six months, during which time the
physical culture features of the school
have been put in practice.
For the same period Miss Morgan,
who is a graduate of the Greensboro,
N. C., State Normal school, has been
teaching a class in art and wood
carving. What they have done
speaks volumes for the skill and fidel
ity of their -teacher and their own
natural aptitude for the work.
Their samples of wood carving are
simply incomparable, and in free
hand drawing they have exhibited
wonderful proficiency.
In embroidery the girls have shown
rare taste and talent, and the exhibit
in that branch of work would do
credit to any of the more pretentious
colleges.
The evening was a most delightful
one in every sense of the word, and
was heartily enjoyed by all who was
so fortunate as to be present.

Short Stories and JSal.Ct Gossip Caught on
the Ron.
Here is another account of the fate of
Col. R. G. Earle, 2nd Alabama Cavalry,
from a Savannah paper during the war:
‘‘As the regiment which this gallant
officer commanded is ignorant of his
ate, it is believed that the eyes of some
f them may rest upon this statement,
t is made upon the authority of two la
ies recently escaped from the enemy's
.ties, and who were living in the imme
diate vicinity of the scenes which they
describe.
On the afternoon of the day of 17th of
May, on which our army passed
through Kingston, a fight took place be
tween Wheeler’s cavalry, commanded
by Jackson, and Gen. Wilder of the
Federal cavalry. The fight began near
the railroad and on the lawn in front of
the residence of Captain C. W. Howard.
Our men drove the enemy back across
the country for five miles, killing a
number of them. The pursuit ceased at
Woodlands, the residence of G. Barns
ley, Esq., where one hundred and thir
ty five of the enemy were captured.
Col. Earle was not apprised when our
men had retreated, while at the spring
a party of eight yankees surrounded him
and demanded a surrender. Hie only re
ply was the killing of one of the enemy.
The remaining seven fired on him and
he fell, pierced with seven balls. He
was buried by the enemy on the terrace,
immediately in the rear of Mr. Barns
ley’s house.
His grave will be held sacred. The
enemy bear testimony to his gallantry.
His papers were given by Gen. McPher
son to Mr. Barnsley, and are now in
safe hands to be conveyed to his widow.
The Second Alabama, while it mourns
a gallant leader, cannot but be proud of
bis heroic death.
[Signed] Georgia.
We have received the following letter
which we cheerfully endorse :
Calhoun, Ga., June 17,1895.
Mr. Editor : Please allow me to asir
that you will permit me to call the at
tention of our gallant gentlemen and
friends to the work undertaken by our
association and to ask their considera
tion and aid.
We have organized a society called
the ‘‘Daughters of the Confederacy,
Sisterhood of Gordon County, Georgia. ’ ’
Our object and sole purpose being first
to rebuild the fence around the Confed
erate cemetery at Resaca, near this
place, and to replace the decaying and
decayed headboards that mark the
graves of many hundred Confederate
soldiers who were killed at the battles of
Cbicamauga, Resaca, and other minor
battles between the armies of General
Johnson and General Sherman in 1864.
Our good mothers, aided by the gal
lant men of Georgia, built a neat and
substantial fence around the cemetery
some years ago, but some one with a
very bad heart set fire to the fence and
burned it almost entirely down, and
ever since the cemetery has had a n°g
lected and abandoned appearance, which
reflects very discreditably upon our
spirit as a proud and independent
people.
We are now going, by the blessing of
God and the help of our fathers, broth
ers and friends, to rebuild that fence
and desire to ask that any one kindly
disposed will send to my address, care
of James M. Harlan & Co., or the Bank
of Calhoun, any contribution or offering
they see proper to make, and it will be
most gratefully received, promptly ac
knowledged and properly appropriated.
We will be thankful for any amount,
however small.
Please allow me to request that the
papers of Georgia and Tennessee aid us
by calling attention to this request.
There are buried in the cemetery many
soldiers from Alabama, South Carolina,
Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi and
Georgia. Let us honor ourselves by
preserving from vandalism the graves of
these noble men. If we have a cent
left after building and improving the
cemetery it will be devoted to the care
of the poor and helpless Confederate
who is worthy.
Respectfully yburs,
Miss Marie E. Harlan,
Corresponding Secretary.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
By local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mu
cous lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and, when it is entirely
closed, deafness is the result, and un
less the inflamation can be, taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall's Catarrh Cure. Bend for circu-
Ifirs fret?

AT THE CAPITOL.
I am in my seventy-third year, and
for fifty years I have been a great
sufferer from indigestion, constipa
tion and billiousness. I have tried all
the remedies advertised for these dis
eases and got no permanent relief.
About one year ago, the disease as
suming a more severe and dangerous
form, I became very weak and lost
flesh rapidly. I commenced using Dr.
H. Mozleys Lemon Elixir, I gained
twelve pounds in three months. My
strength and health, my appetite and
my digestion were perfectly restored
and now I feel as young and vigo
orous as I ever did in my life.

The Best Wav to Boy Ice.
Why pay 10 cents for 12 pounds of
ice when you can get 50 pounds for
25 cents? 50 pounds of ice in a good
refrigerator will last at least two
days. At this late the cost is only
12| cents per day for ice in ample
quantities to keep a refrigerator cold
and in good condition, when from 6
to 12 pounds will do but little good.
In buying ice in small quantities
your ice will cost you just as much,
and at the same time you are not
benefited but little. We sell 1,000
pound books (50 pound coupons) for
$5.00, which gives you 50 pounds for
25 cents!. If your refrigerator will
not take 50 pounds buy one that will
at once; it will soon pay the cost in
the saving of price on ice. We can
better afford to sell 50 pounds of ice
at 25 cents than 12 pounds for 10
cents. Call and get.the books—with
out the books 50 pounds will cost
30 cents. The drivers also have books
which you can get by applying to
them on the wagons. It will be our
pleasure to lead you up to the most
economic way of using ice, and at the
same time protecting our own inter
est. Very respectfully,
J. W. Hancock, Manager.
