As a result of our notice yesterday

office yesterday and offered to give
employment to the couple. This great
big world, with all of its selfishness, is
peopled with kind hearted men and
women, with thousands whose hearts
are always touched by a worthy ap

entirely bad. The mautle of charity
bends over millions.
Postmaster Haines, ot Savannah,
wired to Mr. J. Monroe L-e, the post
master here,that young Dohlberg had
plead guilty to robbing mail boxes in
the postoffice here. The sentence has
not been announced. On account of
bis age and the fact that he plead
guilty, the sentence will probably be
a light one. Later in tho day Mr.
John Dohlberg, father of tho boy, re
ceived a telegram from his wife, who
is in Savannah, stating that the boy
was out.

day evening was one of the most
entertaining, unique and enjoyable
amateur exhibitions ever witnessed in
the tovrm And, notwithstanding the
inclemency of the evening, a good
audience graced the occasion with
their presence. And it was an ap
preciative audience,too. The different
scenes and characters were liberally
and, in fact, enthusiastically applaud-
ed. And the girls looked—well, they
were perfectly charming in the differ
ent roles ^which they played. The
costumes, many of them, were in the
height of fashion and very beautiful.
Each girl happily adapted herself to
her part. The various lines of busi

Miss Mayne Davis was to have rep
resented the Advertiser, but was
unavoidably absent.
The statuary scenes ’neaih the
changing calcium lights were sinkings
Iy beautiful.
Among other scenes which caught
the crowd completely were the
following: shoeing a horse on the
stage by Miss Bottoms, the forest
scene by Miss George Mitchell, the
barber shop scene, by Miss CarrigaD,
the dentist’s chair, by Miss Bennett
and the photographer, by Miss Min
nie Chastaio.
The whole concluded with a grand
inarch by sixty odd young ladies. It
was bewildering. To the measured
music by the orchestra, fairy-like
forms marched and counter marched
going through evolutions which would
would have done credit to a well
drilled military company.
The whole thing was a brilliant
success, and we regret that space will
not permit us to notice a number who
really deserve special mention.
The music by the Mitchell House
orchestra was very fine and was very
much enjoyed by every one present
