Tomorrow night thousands of people
!tvlll no doubt be comfortably seated
In the amphitheatre of the ball ground3
witnessing the first production of'the
‘I>a3t Days of Pompeii.*’ Their souls
will be "far away" as their eyes gaze
on the ’‘purple peaks remote,” at the
feet of which the mimic city of Pom
peii lies tranquilly realistic. Their
thoughts will revert to the actual city
of grandeur, located at the foot of
Mount Vesuvius, in the zenith of
llometa wealth and power some eight
een centuries ago. Their eyes will feast
upon a scene of beauty but faintly
Imagined from reading. They will see
In the foreground a lake bedecked with
gondolas a-nd galleys and bordered
with gardens and palaces, the streets
of an ancient city, alive with people
in odd, picturesque dress, 'young and
old, busy and idle, -rich and poor, men,
women and Children. Massive buildings
of quaint architecture rise on every
side. lAt the left a marble palace of
a rich nobleman stands so near the
like that boats tand Kielr fair occu
pants at the steps, on a street that
scemes perfectly outlined with &atuary,
urns, flowers, shrubs and ferns, la a
massive triumphal arch. In the middle
foreground Is a massive marble bath
house. In close proximity to this tem
ple of cleanliness is the white murbled-
co.umned temple of Isis, the favorite
godless. To the left Is a most ancient
building, representing the Greek tem
ple of Neptune, of magnificent archi
tecture. It Is near the Coliseum and
Fwum, where gorgeousf.y robed sena
tors are passing in and out. In every
direction up the mountain slope and
beside the blue waters of the Naples
bay are villas and picturesque gar
dens, temples, eic.» where, towering
to a lofty height, 4s Mount Vesuvius
Itself. As the performance progresses
a trumpet .Is 'heard and from under
the triumphal arches a group of sol
diers emerge with standards and mu
sical Instruments, announcing the com
ing of Arbaces. the wealthy Egyptian,
who on th-ls occasion has attempted to
Idazzle the eyes of the Pompeiian popu
lace by a display of wealth, but more
especially to gain the hand of lone,
who 4s his distinguished guest. The
soldiers are followed by negro slaves,
priests and priestesses, flower and
dancing girls, gladiators, musicians and
senators, nnd under a canopy Arbaces
himself. After crossing the plaza,
bowing to the honorable senators at
the Forum, the procession returns and
awaits the Egyptian’s greeting of
lone, with her attendants, who with
the Greek Glaucus arrive by boat,
nnd who are taken to the magnificent
residence of Arbaces and from his
portico watch the festivities, consist
ing of daring acrobatic feats and spe
cialties. Following the sports the
stored march Is made to the temple
Isis, where the 11 ol Is to he worshiped
h carried out" All kneel hut Glaucus,
wh o, being a Christian, refuses and this
brings on a combat with lArbaceS. Ve
suvius now emits a cloud of smoke and
flame, with a deafening roar, and lava
pours down tho mountain side In tor
rents. Earthquakes add to the catas
trophe, •buildings and temples fall and
ore burled and the destruction of the
beuattful city io com pie. But 'this brief
description gives but a limited concep
tion of "The Iiast Days of Pompel.”
Following the destruction of Fom-
ppll tho firework display will begin,
which will consist of numerous set
pieces changed nightly, and a repro-’
ductlon of the beautiful fireworks seen
on the lagoons at the World’s Fair,
Chicago, which were the admiration, of
thousands. The fireworks alone each
'night cost 51,000 and will be the most
(magnificent pyrotechnic display the
South has ever witnessed. It Is pro
posed o make tomorrow night agTand
.'gain one, It being the opening pdr*
iformamce, nnd Mayor Home’s picture
!nnd the Wesleyan Female College will
ibe -given In fireworks. Everything w In
complete readiness, the amphlthcntro
has been enlarged to seat comlfort-
iably nearly 10,000 people. Four addi
tional entrances have been arranged
Into 'ttio ball ground, so as to avoid
truly unnecessary crowding or Jostling.
[The electric cars will run direct to the
Pompeiian enclosure. All tickets pur
chased after C p. m. admit to both
■Fa-ir grounds and Pompeii, but those
who purchase tickets previous to the
'hour will ihave to buy special Pompeii

The abovo peculiar letter needs an explanation. During the recent money panic wo closed
out jointly with Lilienthal & Gussenheimer of Montgomery, Ala., (the quantity being too large
for cither of us) the entire production of medium-weight, fine tailor-made Overcoats of one of
the largest, finest manufacturers in the United States. We bought them for spot cash at 60
cents on the dollar of manufacturer’s cost. The above letter speaks for itself, for wo wrote to
the manufacturers to please write us a letter stating the above facts. We regret business con*
fidencc compels us to withhold the name of the concern. But what interests you more, and
pleases you the better, is the fact that we are going to place the entire lot on salo this week at
the following prices: $5*00 9 ^7.50» SlO.OOj SIsJ.OO.
Every Overcoat in this lot is worth double the above prices. '
