Ralph Bingham Entertained a Splendid
Audience Last Wednesday Night
We had with us last Wednesday
evening Mr. Bingham, a veteran
lecturer anti fun maker. He came
as one of the numbers of ihe
Lyceum for 1 his season and as the
initial number. We are delighted
to note that there was not a mo
ment during the time he held the
rostrum that one could call a dull
edsteads, time who faced him in the
audience.
His recitations we/e up to stand
ard excellence and his personations
and character sketching were as
good as any we have seen and his
F. t. U P5att ’ J - r - muaic was very line. There was a
' good audience and nearly every
\ member of the Waynesboro Lyceum
was present. It is a pleasure to
know that our critical and refined
foiks have at least found a way to
get entertainment from artistic or,
if not, least ati'rom sources praeti
ed and skilled as entertainers. Mr
Bingham came to us after years of
work in his line and had often the
encomium of larger audiences, but
he hardly had a more enthusiastic
audience than he faced here.
Those who missed Mr. Bingham
missed one of the best we have had
and a genuine treat. We hope to
see him again.

WAYNESBORO ACADEMY
Opened Tuesday With Blight Prospects -
Many Present.
Tuesday last the Academy opened
again and ended the long holiday.
About one hundred and thirty pupils
appeared and a fairer array of
young people would be difficult to
nod. As the opening day wa3 sim
ply to do grading, of course recita
tions were not expected. The task
of grading is not an easy 7 one, nor is
it always a rosy one for the children
ana teachers. Both suffer disap
pointment now and then when an
applicant does not rise, but as sys
tem and the plan of education are
inexorable, one not prepared can
not go forward. Parents are dis
appointed along with the teachers
and the student, but ail must
tu quiesce.
The gay chatter of the buoyant
and hopeful youths w 7 as pleasant to
ihe ear. Befo»e them was their
fives filled with brightness aud
triumphs unlimited; and the tasks
that confronted them did not
dampen the ardor with which they
met the prospects, M*y they not
meet with stumbling blocks that
wiil deter them; for the joy ot suc
cess is proportionate always to the
amount of difficulties overcome.
At ihe appointed hour the chil
dren, to the sound of a march, play
ed by Mi=s Philo Sturgea, filed into
the iarge auditorium and many
parents and other patrons followed.
The principal, Prof. McNair, called
the house to order and after prayer,
he opened with remarks referring
briefly to the pleasing appearances
of she beginning. He stated how
cleligh'ed he was to see so much in
terest manifested and added his
promise that the scholastic term
-houid be filled with work redound
ing, he hoped, to the benefit of all
Afterwards he requested remarks
from those present, and in the order
named: Judge Perry 7 , Rev. Mr.
Branch, Prof. Carey, School Com
missioner Roberts, and Rev, Mr.
Cartledge responded briefly.
The opening exercises concluded
wilh the song America, sang by
! hose present, and afterwards ihe
applicants for places in the various
grades dispersed to meet in class
rooms for examination. Many an
excited young heart beat nervously
till the ordeal passed, anti then took
the fate that awaited them with joy
or disappointment.
Our school will compare well with
any in the state and will not, we
are sure, deteriorate under the
present management. The corps
of teachers are earnest, sincere and
painstaking. Tne system adopted
will be carried out to the end aud
the studious will profit by it.
Catalogs have been printed and
can be bad by writing to the prin
cipal
Speaking for ourself the visit to
the opening was interesting and
gratifying. Let us congratulate ail

Sam J ones
Got here on schedule time
and maybe he didn’t raise a
houi. Officers and rear seat
members of the churches,
bucks and buckesses, Demo
crats Republicans, and
Populists, “Sassiety,” good-
for-nothing husbands, Joe
Terrell and- others caught
the “dickens” there, and got
a prophecy of warmer
things he said suited us,
and as he said it was the
hit ini that would be howl
ing after he left. We have
no remardsto make about
what we didn’t like.
That gun, Sam,was shoot
ing in the hole at ’em,which
must have scattered power
ful,for we understand there
were lots of howling. We
hoped he would enlarge up
on one subject that he touch
ed, but he doesn’t care to,
and we were afraid to ask
him to, and that was about
“merchants skinning peo
ple.” He couldn’t stop it
though, for when a -fellow
gets loaded up with bad
credits he has got to “skin”
people why pay to make up
for those who don’t. That’s
why THE CASH CON
CERN don’t have to “skin”
anybody, because it believes
“no man as good as gold”
and keeps no books full of
“Tickets.” That’s the reas
on we can afford to sell
goods away below par and
still make a decent living.
