Everything**!!! be Inorder to-night and Americua theatre goer* will be treated to the beat pertormanee of the ■ Last season theater goers will scarcely be able to recognize In the now thoroughly overhauled, bill! nished theater, the opera hones of lest year. Such a tram has never been seen In Amerlona before. - Instead of that small cooped op stage a large and roomy one appears. Large and oomforta- ble dressing rooms take the place of those little dungeons of the past. The old obalre and stools have been replaced by handsome opera seats. This news will be hailed with delight by theater Whiles great deal of money and labor has been expended on the exterior of the building the repairs on the interior most not be lost eight of. New stepe have replaced the old death traps, handsome doors have been swung and the walis have been testily painted. Bat the most catching thing lethe new and beautiful scenery that has Just been placed in position. Not one alhgle piece of the old einv aaa remains, but the whole la of the latest, designs, from*the brush of one of the beet artiste In the oona- try,and is complete In every detail. The garden scene deserves especial mention. Of the attraction to be presented to-night the least that can be aald la that it will be Immense. The “Three Fast Men” oompany has made a hit at every theaterjn which It baa been presented. A packed house should greet them to-night. The Jeffersonians Win. Hjwelal to IllCOBDSB. Rome, Oot. 1.—Shake. The Jet- feraonlan Democrats won a great vlotory to-day. Felix Corpot, Sea born Whatly and J. Lindsay John son, alliance candidates for the legislature, were defeated by Jno, J, Seay, Jno. W. Turner and W. O. llryau, genuine Democratic noml nee*. The defeat of the alliance ticket means death knell of R. W. Everett, Alliance candidate for congress from the Seventh district, and the election of Dr. Felton. The victory for pure Democracy Is a notable one, and gives. Sullivan qnletls to demsgognee of alllanoe and should teach some papers to go alow In potting their oars where they have no business. The old Seventh,led by Floyd county, will yet eave Geor- gls to the Democratic party. All Quiet In Burke. Special to Recorder.

Managers Mathews, Sullivan and Oliver were not rushed with holi ness, but were oompelled to devote considerable time to looking np re gistrations and properly looatlng many oolored voters who did not know In whatdistrlot they II red, or barely what their .names were. Clerks Wheatley, FiUgerald and Maynard found plenty of time be tween the writing of name* to re count old oollege remlnlssences and discuss embryo law potato. Early In the day there wax a con siderable number of white votes In the olty from the surrounding coun ty, and most of them went straight to the polls, dsposlted their ballots and after transacting their other business went home again. The negro votes were very few. They seemed to hardly know that It was election day, and when they did learn that It was, they seemed net to care how It went. A Recorder man saw a small group of Ham's dusky children standing near the corner of the court house, and in the midst of them was a toll blaok coon with hla hand* full of tloketo for Little and Littleton, and he was making them a lecture after this fashion ‘■You niggers ain’t no ’count. Heali yon Is now de half ob you ain’t reg’ater’d. You say you dun- no’iMtlon am cornin' so soon. Wo una mightergone jrouu’- cboryday an’ tole you to fix fur de ’leotion an’ you 'ud still say you dunno nutbln’ 'toll 'bout hit." He told them unless they gave more attention to fclltlei and look ed more after the Interest of their candidates that they would soon find themselvoB In such a condition that they could never hope to elMt anybody. When he finished the crowd broke np, and some went one way and some another, all of them doubtless feeling like one old gray-halred plantotlouer, who grinned* great broad grli^of eatiifaotlon as he ex claimed; "What yer sped I gulnor fool boot dee 'lections fur long ex I'se got plenty o’ oo’n in 'do orib, an’ meal In de kitchen. I goes er pos sum huntln whin I wants any fun.” So far as could bo learned tne ne groes took but little Interest In any part of the county and In every dis trict It was the same way. The total vote oast In the city waa 745. The nominees for the legislature from Sumter, A. S. Cults and J. A. McDonald received each 651. Tbe negro oahdldatea, Little and Littleton, reoelved each 88. Thera were 258 votes for ratifica tion. The shortage le explained by the fact that one half of the tlcklta had nothing printed on them about ratification. The State boose ticket straight with R. T. Nesbitt for Agricultural Commissioner and Robb Patton for Senator from the 13th District, re ceived each 040 vote*. Of course the result Is just what was expected and jnit what the Democratic party desired. The Democracy of Snmter la Mild. BURGLARS IN BRUNSWICK. Epeoixt to KtoomoBB.
