Covington, Ga., April 8,
Mr. Cone in Covington.
Mr. Theodore C. Cone, the
southern lecturer, will bo in Covington
to-night,'and v%ill deliver his incompara¬
ble lecture at McDonald’s hall, entitled
"Reason’s Reply to the Four Great Ques¬
tions.” This lecture has been pronounced
by tiie press and pulpit of Atlanta to b.*
the finest ever delivered in that city. It
is profound in thought, wonderful in
search, irrefutable in argument, and ele¬
gant in diction. Mr. Cone was in Coving¬
ton some weeks ago,and delivered bis two
grand lectures, and so well pleased were
those who heard him, that he has been
induced to return here for one night.—
The Stab earnestly hopes be will be greet
ed by a large audience on this occasion,
and in order that all may hear him,
admission lias been ’■educed one half.
Tickets can be had at Brooks &. Ivy’s
store, and at A- E. McDonald’s store,
25 cents each. This is the last
ty our citizens will have of hearing
wonderful lecture, and we advise
one to go out and hear him. He will
liver his two lectures at Oxford,
day and Friday nights, tiie admission
to which will be only 25 cents for each
lecture.
In reference to Mr. Cone’s lectures,
friend, in Atlanta, writes the editor of
Star the following letter, which we take
the liberty of publishing without Mr.
Cone’s knowledge :
Atlanta, Ga., April 6 , 1884 .
Editor Covington Star:
Dear Sir—- l sec that the people of Coving¬
ton and Oxford are to have the rare opportunity
of hearing Mr. Theodore C. Cone’s wonderful
lectures again. Y'our citizens are certainly to
congratulated, no less for their good taste in call¬
ing Mr. Cone back to repeat hislccturs, than
the rare intellectual treat that is in store
them. These lectures are pronounced by the
most competent judges in America to be the
est ever heard in this country. I have heard most
of the celebrated orators and lecturers who have
been prominent in America during the past quar¬
ter of a century, and I do not hesitate to say that
none of them can compare at all favorably with
Mr. Cone. He is doing a great and noble work,
and it is to be hoped that every body in Geor¬
gia, and especially the young men, will have an
opportunity of hearing the great Georgian be¬
fore he leaves the state. I am sure the
Covington and Oxford will be delighted
him.
Yours truly, Fulton.
Attention is directed to the card of Mr. J.
Clark, of Atlanta, in reference to piano tuning.
Mr. Clark is well known to most of our citizens

in our city, all ol which, we think, has given
satisfaction.
