MISS YAW COMING. She Will Delight All Hearers Next Friday Night. Miss Yaw, Miss Lay and Mr. D ck are bests) s who will delight Romans at Nevin’s opera house Friday night. Tuese three great artists are worth going many miles to bear, sad tire opera home should and probably will be crowded to hear them. The following criticism is from the Baltimore Sun of October 23, ’94: •‘Yaw was the thing last night—at least as far as the musical world of Baltimore was concerned. A voice that will make mark rs one of the wonders of the day is Yaw’s, and if her hearers assembled at Lehmann’s Ball half apologetically, they came away wfrol.y rs tonished. “Adverti semen t s had heralded tbe now singer with the pecul iar na m e—a name v. hich seemed to have some indefinable in tbe owner's career — and brought to mind tbe ’portmanteau words’ of t.hu wonder stories, wi'h a whole bundlefull ot suggestions of ‘raw’ and ‘j iw' and ‘bawl’ done up in one syllable, Eveiyone haa looked askance at the name and at the ladder-like lines of the musical staff on which her altissi mo E was picu ed and bad fallen to wondering if Yaw would turn out ‘fake’ or phenomenon, and, if the latter, bow she would manage to climb up to the dizzy heights which Patti and Nilsson had failed to scale. “Well, she didn’t climb the ladder, she •eimply cleared it at a bound, and if not reaching quite to E in altissimo, she pro duced such marvelously high and char ton-8 with such surprising ease, and his under the disadvantages of a severe cold, that her bearers' felt there were even greater heights within her range which wou'd make good under favorablr conditions her claim to the possession ot the highest, soprano yet recorded in musical history. “Yaw’s debut in B-dtimore from th<- beginuing was a sutprise. There was something in tbe girl’s appearance which accorded strangely with her voice. Th» p cture was this—i tall and thin young woman, with sharp but pretty and po ti cal features, with shaggy, wild, yellow locks fl .aniig about her brow, and with her slender form clad in a long, loose gown. “A moment’s surprise at her appear ance gave way to greater surprise at her voice, which was not, as had been ex pected, thin as its owner, but, in its lower register at least, rich and strong. Soon, after an exhibition of its flexibility and technical resources, began the jour ney into the realms of the ledger lines above the staff, and from the long throat came a succession of high tones that suggested the harmonics on a violin mi seemed to be produced with just such n tightening of the fine vocal cords as a v olinist produces when he is ’way up in the ‘positions’ on the E string. The whole voice was as high and clear as a flute.” Two Great Nights at Nevin’s. There will be two great attractions at. Nevin opera house next week; two of the g eatest drawing cards that Rome has ever known. The “Devil’s Auction” comes Wednesday evening, the 16 h, and Ribert Downing follows oh the 17th with his great new “Gladiator.” Downing’s new scenery, among other pieces, consist of the Catacombs of R me, by Sasmou and Landis; Flavius Garden on the banks of the Tiber, by H. T. Harviy; Temple of Juno, by Milton W. Slemmer, and Arena Scene, after Gerome’s famous painting, by LaFayette W. Seavev. These two favorite attractions have fiever failed to draw big houses in Rome.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1895. CANALS OF THE FUTURE. They Will Be Large Enough For the Han dling of a Heavy Business. Tho history of the struggle between canals of small dimensions and of rail roads has been the same in all countries. The fight raged bitterly for a number of years, the canals acting on the defen sive, although they had as allies tho states under whose patronage they were built and operated. The result has been the same in all cases—the unconditional surrendbr of the canals to tho railroads. This, however, is not so much the fault of the system as of their management. The railroad- have great advantages over canals. They are better able to abridge distances both by reason of supe rior speed and of facilities for overcom ing elevations, spanning streams, free from danger of destructive floods, and piercing through the highest mountains, but their great success is mainly due to the fact that they have kept pace with the progress of the world. Waterways built from the beginning of the eighteenth century to the first quarter of tho nineteenth century were regarded ample to meet the requirements of trade at the time they were construct ed, and there was in many instances a progressive improvement in their dimen sions and appurtenances. But while tho industrial, agricultural and commercial developments of the world have ad vanced to proportions not dreamed of a century ago canals have remained sta tionary. They are now obsolete and can no longer fulfill the requirements of cheap transportation in competition with railroads. The canals of the future must have the dimensions and the facili ties for rapid transport to adapt them to the new conditions of commerce. They must not be barge or boat canals, but ample waterways for the free passage of such ships as are now engaged in carry ing the world’s trade. Os such canals we have now some important types in successful operation, and others in proc ess of construction or in completion. Chautauquan. A MEDICAL AUTHOR. Dr. Hartman Writes on Chronic Catarrh Coughs, Colds, La Grippe and Con sumption, as Follows: Chronic catarrh is the bane of Ameri can civiiizition. There is no organ of rhe human body that it can destroy, nor disease it does not imitate. Catarih prevails in all seasons and spares no call ing or vocation. No locality is entirely free from its ravages; no amount of vi tality can withstand its attack. Neither children or old age are exempt from its presence, and it does not respect six color or nationality. Summer and winter spring and autumn, chronic catarrh ceases not to iffl ct a large per cent of the inhabitants of this country. But it is especially during the winter season that catarrh does its most deadly work. Every cold wave, eveiy wintry b’ zz;rd, every storm of sleet, snow or rain adds thousands to tbe annual list of victims • f chronic catarrh. Catarrh is liable to attack any organ of the Luman body. Unfortunately, however, catarrh of most of tbs organs is not called catarrh, and many people are led astray as to the real nam eof their disease. If the ca tarrh happens to be located in tbe head or throat it is then generally call: d ca tarrh; but if it is located in the bron chial tubes it is called bronchitis; if in the lungs, consumption; if in tbe stom ach ttis called dyspepsia; catarh of the kidneys is called Bright's d seaee; while 0 itarrh of the pevalio organs is ca lid female weakness and various other nam*-s Catarrh medicines are of two classes — those that cure and those that relieve. Those that cure are called specifics; these that only relieve are called pallia tives. The effect of the catarrh pallia tives are often immediate, but always temporary. They never cure. This kind of catarrh medicines includes sprays, snuffs, inhalants, gargles and local applications of all kinds. They k em t • cure for a while, but tho disease is sure to return. P.i-ru-na belongs to the class <>f catarrh medicines calkd specifics. Pe-ru-m does not palliate the sympt >ms, but cures the disease. It is sometimes slow in its action in old cases of chronic catarrh, but it is sure and its effec’s are permanent. Thousands of cures are re ported every year. It is also an unfail ing remedy for coughs, colds, bronchitis, la grippe, consumption in its early stages, and all the chronic diseases of winter. An excellent treatise on catarrh will be sent free to any address by The Pa-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Company of Columbus, Olio. Summerville High School. Summerville, Ga., January 8 —The Summerville high school opened today with 55 pupils. W. T. Williman, of Cave Spring, has gone with his old teacher, Prof. Palemon J. King, to attend this s boo’.
