DAILY ENQUIRER * SUN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, SATURDAY MORMNG. DECEMBER 4, 1886. THE GREEK PLAY. ,A Wmtern Hanagar Tints the Aehnrnlans In Ills Own Intenee IHsgimt. •Chicago News. Col. John A. HntullD, lessee of the Grand opera house, was In an ill humor lest even ing. He had just returned from New York wnither he went to see the performance of Aristophanes’s play of “The Acharni- ans,” and he spoke bitterly of bis experi- ance. “From what I rend in the papers,” said he, “I gathered that it was a new play, and as lam always on the qui vlve for new attractions, I slipped quietly down to New York to see the piece with a view to se curing dates for Chicago in case the pro duction was a success. I went around to the Academy of Music and bought a seat down in the parquet. There was a crowd ed house, and the people seemed to be of the better class. A Boston poet named Lowell sat on one side of me and Mr. -Curtis, the editor of Harper’s picture E aper. Bat on the other side. The curtain adn’t been up more’n a minute before I began to get queered. “‘Excuse me, sir,’ said I to the Boston poet, ‘but I suspect I’ve got into the wrong theatre. I wanted to see the new play of ‘The Acharnians,’ but I suspect that th'is is the Dutch opera.’ “ ‘No,’ said he, ‘this is the new play.’ “I sat still a few minutes longer and kept getting more and more tangled up all the time; ’* ‘Do you think I could get a libretto ?’ said I to the editor at my left. “He didn’t mako any answer; he just gave me one look that made me feel as if I had been playing to a losing business for months. I suppose the management paid him to talk up and write up the piece. Well, of all the rot you ever heard and saw, that play was the worst. What made me particularly mad whs that the Boston poet and the editor of the picture paper seemed to enjoy it. The only man in the parquet who appeared to .sympathize with me was Mel. Hudson, manager of the Coates’ opera house, at Kansas City, he, too, had come on to see about making dates for the Missouri cir cuit. We stood it for about twenty min utes and then got up and went out for a seltzer lemonade, and we didn’t go back. ‘What is it?’we asked one of the ushers. ‘Greek,’ said he. ‘Greek be !’ said I; ■‘I wouldn’t swap a first-class American farce-comedy for all the Greek plays in the world! Come, Mel, let’s start back ■west.’ ” O* the shaking of the ague ! 0, the tortures of Neuralgia! o’, the wretchedness^o^headache I O, the gripes of bilious colic I All of these will surely vanish Like the snow befor the Southwind, If you’ll only take Smith’s Bile Beans. You can buy them at your drug store For a quarter of a dollar; And if you will only try them You will never be without them. decl eod&wlm Mow the Mint Julep Csme into Existence. According to a Chicago newspaper, the mint julep is an old colonial Virginian •drink. It was invented in Virginia by a wealthy planter, who had a corny of . . . nyany friends at his house. A great hail-storm came up; he gathered the nail-stones, and, on the inspiration of the moment, con cocted that delicious beverage which we call mint julep. Its fame spread, but at first they never made it except when It hailed.—New York Commercial Adver tiser. 'Typhoid, Scarlet and Yellow Fetors, Measles, Diph theria, Small-pox, Cholern, Ac.

It is announced on the highest authority that birds will again be in fashion for women’s bonnets and hats. The protests against the slaughter of the birds have spent their force, and what has been well called a heathenish custom is once more to have its course.—Boston Record. Women needing renewed strength or who suffer from nervous weakness, will find nothing to help them like Moxie Nerve Food. It is certainly a great invig- orator, and will restore a shattered nerv ous system to a healthful and natural con dition in a few days. The physicians say It is the best nerve food yet discovered.

How he Indulges in Folly Twice a Year, w Yoik Sun. southern gentleman, familiar with inister Manning’s habits of conviviality, ,’es an interesting account of his methods this direction: , ...... , ‘Mr. Manning is afflicted with this sort ■ • • - ■ Tt, conus tematically to submit to it. He will go his barber and get a clean shave, then : on his best clothes (and he is a con- sseur in sartorial matters,) and after it will take a long, vigorous walk. Ho , handsome, lordly-looking man, and on s preliminary walk you mieht mistake a for a member of some royal family veling incognito. He then goes to Ins im, locks and bars the door, and the head of his bed he places a stand on ich he arranges as comprehensive an ortment of liquors as he canprocure. ere will be good old brandy, Kentucky Rye, absynthe., sherry for oonlrast, and Perhaps claret and a big bowl of punch, l lie fine clothes are doffed and an em broidered night gown put ou. Thou, with a good novel in hand, Manning goes to bed and begins on the punch. He makes un 0,1 * or f° 0( li and drinks at one kind of liquor until it is all gone or his stomach -efuses to take more of it. Then he at tacks something else for a change, and so he keeps on for four or five days. Then, after a deep sleep, he rises, opens his door and calls In his physician, under whoss charge he remains for a week or more, as sick a man as you can imagine. Thon some llie morning you will see him out walking down the street again, smooth- shaven, erect, well dressed, a king amon “an. There are few men of greater ability in the diplomatic service to-day. Except on these two semi-annual obliqui ties Manning never drinks, and he might bo looked upon as a prohibitionist.” Advice to Mothers.—Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It re lievos the little sufferer at once; it produces natural, quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain, and the little cherub awakes as bright as a button. ” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all pain, relieves wind, regu- lates the bowels ana is the best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether arising from teething or other causes. Twenty- five cents a bottle. jel7 d&wly It Kicked. If the republican management had noth ing to do with the persecution of John Mc Bride and other like infamous attacks on democratic candidates in the past, why is it that such suits and falsehoods never make their appearance except when there is a campaign on hand and republicans are hard pressed for campaign thunder? It is thought by McBride’s persecutors, the re- g ubhean “boodle” state committee, that y instigating proceedings at this time a sentiment would be created against a worthy and honorable gentleman, but their gun was loaded with a charge that went through the breech instead of the muzzle.—Cleveland Plain Leader.
