“Skipped by the Light of the
Moon. ’ ’
Fowler and Waruaington’a Company
of Comedians will be the attraction at
the New Opera House on next Tuesday
night, and the famous laughing sensation
“Skipped by the Light o,f the Moon,”
will set the town in a roar. People now
a days want to laugh, and “Skipped”
affords them abundant opportunity for
so doing. Its dialogue is bright without
being pretentious; its situations are
laughably absurd ; its incidents are origi
nal and funny, and the supporting com
pany will be found to be unusually
strong and well balanced. Considerable
new music and many funny specialities
have been introduced for this season’s
tour, and the piece is said to be funnier
than ever.

At the Comus meeting on Tuesday
night, the call to order by the president

that a new leaf should be spedily turned,
and the club gotten back into its . old
grooveof work, theComus adjourned, and
the evening was given over to conversa
tion and music.
On Friday night, in the Comus Club
parlor, a delightful musicale was given,
under the direction of Mr. J. W. Smith,
of Atlanta. The local talent of. our citv

Ought to Come Here.
The past week, a petition, signed by
almost every citizen of Dalton, and set
ting forth the superior advantages of Dal
ton, asking for the location of the new
federal penitefitiitty at Dalton, was for
warded to Washington. In yesterday’s
Constitution, its Washington corres
pondent said :
“Judge Maddox called upon the attor
ney general and the secretary of the inte
rior today to urge upon them the loca
tion of the proposed southern prison at
Dalton. Judge Moddox says Dalton is
the best location on account of its cli
mate and general healthfulness, in Geor
gia, and that he will urge to the be.-t of
his ability its location there. He has a
petition signed by a large number of
people from that section, asking its loca
tion at Dalton. Judge Maddox has an
nounced that he will make a tariff speech
at some time during next week. It will
undoubtedly be a good one. Judge
Maddox is recognized as one of the
strong men of the delegation.”
Judge Maddox certainly has a strong
brief in his behalf. Dalton is Unques
tionably the. place for the new prison,
and possesses advantages of location and
economy possessed by no other southern
city. The trouble will be in making
others see it in that light. Our people
ought to appoint a committee to go to
Washington and co-operate with Judge
Maddox in’presenting the facts in a for
cible light. If they do not “political
reasons” may carry it elsewhere.
