A new era is dawning upon woman.

woes unnambered." In the mansion of
the rich and hovel of poverty alike wo
man has been the constant yet patient
victim of a thousand ills unknown to
man-and without a remedy. "Oh
Lord, bow- long!" in the agony of her
soul, bath she cried. But now the hour

Reduction of Fare.
- The Columbia & Greenville R. R
has reduced passenger rates from fiv
cents to four cents a mile. The reduc
- tion went into effect the 1st instant
Second class fare is now 3 1-2 cents pe:
mile.
A system of "Round Trip Tickets'
between stations along the line at I
cents per mile is also in force, whicl
has been arranged with the view of
accommodating local travel.
This reduction will prove very ac
ceptable to the travelling public, and
we have no doubt the consequent in
crease in travel will more than com
pensate the road for th. reduction.

The Bonnie MIeyer Combination
Played Fanchon in the Prytaneum
last (Monday) night to a delighted
house. Miss Bonnie Meyer, as Fan
chon, was excellent and completely
captivated the audience. She reminds
one very much of Miss Anna Pixly
in M'Liss. Mr. J. H. Thorne, as
Didier, won unlimited praise for the
admirabie manner in which he sus
tained his character. These two
leading characters were well support
ed by the rest of the troupe, and for
three hours the;ujoyment of the
audience was complete. The Bonbie
Meyer.is one of the best troupes thaC
has visited Newberry.
They play to-night Rip Van Win
kle, with Miss Meyer as Gretchen
and Mr. Thorne as Rip Van Winkle.
Spirits.
There is a fascination about spiritual
ism, as about all mysteries. Mr. Foster
would have had a good house for his
seances Friday night but for his injudi
cious advertisement that he:would only
charge a nominal fee for admittance.
Expecting the charge would be a quar
ter many went to the door to go in, but
finding the charge fifty cents the great
er portion left. It was not so much the
price that kept many out as the suspi
cion that the announcement of a nomi
nal fee was intended to get a orowd to
come expecting tbem to go in then at
any price. It looked very much like a
trick; and it is usually a very poor
show that resorts to such tricks. After
a few had gone in at 50 cents and many
had gone home, the admission was put
down to 25 cents. As to the spiritual
manifestations there was nothing of the
kind for the general audience. As a
sleight-of-hand performer Mr. Foster is
very good. He invited the following
committee on the stage: Drs. Pant and
Garmany and Messrs. Jaeger, John
sto, R. H. Greneker and Schumpert.
The tricks he performed appeared won
derful; the committee and audience
tried hard to detect. the tricks, but could
not.
The performanc.e came near having
a tragic ending. Mr. Jaeger, one of
the committee, drank some of the 'wa
ter that had been turned into wine; a
few minutes afterwards be became very
sick. He went to Dr. Fant's Drug Store,
and by the aid of antidotes was relieved
of danger. Saturday he had Mr. Foster
arrested for poisoning him, and a pre
liminary examination was held before
Judge Pa'cker Saturday night. From the
examination it appears that the "wine"
was the result of a mixture of T-annic
acid and some compound of iron. There
being no intent to poison, and Dr. Gar
many testifying that there was not
enough acid used to kill, the prisoner
was discharged. Mr. Jaeger has been
quite sick since Saturday night, but is
now well again.

The Bergers gave an entertainment
in the Prytaneum Thursday night. The I
simple name of "Bergers" was enough r
to insure u good house. The audience
was one of the best that has turned out
this season. The performance, though
quite good and pleasant, did net coin e
up to expectation. The audience for
the most part had not kept up with the I
history of the Bergers, and expected t
to see about the same troupe that they
had been accustomed to. Of the troupe
that was here several years ago only
two remain, Mr. Henry Berger and
Miss Etta Morgan. Miss Etta Berger
was married when she passed olioigh 3
here in 1875-her husband is a Nor- t
wegian named Anderson. Miss Anna, r
"Who played the cornet se beautifully,
is also married and has two children.c
Mr. J. H. Thiele, who played the flutec
and whose -"Carnival of Venice" can]
never be forgotten by any who heard
it, is now a member of the Mendels
sehn Quintette Club of Boston; be
played with the Club in Newberry last
IDecember; he has exchanged his :aute
for a violin. Sol Smith Russel, whose
first wife was a Berger, is married a.gain
-to a daaghter of
"Oliver Optic." He is under contract
with Mr.1Henry Berger for next season,
beginning next November. Miss Mor- I
gan winl exchange the bells and the
saxophone for the orange blossoms
when the spring-time comes.
The performance Thursday night was'
strictly first class and enjoyable. The ~
band played beautifully. The music ~
altogether was very good. The ventri
loquial performances by Mr. Brewster s
were the best we have ever seen. The '
performance suffered from the lack of i
a comic actor to add fun and variety to 1
the entertainment; their funny man
left recently on account of some disam
greement with the proprietor. His (
place will be supplied soon.
Dr. Moccasin Skinner.
According to announcement Doctor e
Moccasin Skinner dropped in upon the E
town of Newb'erry last week and thei
welcome he received was almost equal i
to* that of a circus procession.
He immediately went to business.
Mounting a dry goods box on the pub
lic square, the Doctor soon had a crowd
around him, attracted thither by the
peculiar and'highly fantastic "get np"
of the3 Doctor's costume and by the t
streams of free information that poured ~
from the Doctor's lips. ."Gentlemen,"
says he, exhibiting a bottle of yellow
liquid, "I have here a medicine that r
will cure every ache and pain that ileshi
is heir to. Why should you suffer and
pine away when a remedy is brought
right here to your doors and offered to
you? This medicine is made from a
plant that is found only in a small sec
tion of the Indian Territory. I learned
the secret while living among the In
dians." (This argument about the In
dians always brings down the mostC
skeptical; the average citizen caves at I
once.) "Now, Idid not come among you
to make money-I don't care for money t
-I want to relieve the sufferings of my 1
fellow-men. But in order to make mzy<
expenses as I go along I must charge a<
little something for my medicines. I
would like te test this medicine rigit
here and prove to you that every word
I say is true. Is there anybody here
got an ache, or a pain, or any chronie
complaint? If so, come right along
here, and I'll cure you in five minutes."
One of the crowd steps up and says
he has the headache mighty bad. The
Doctor grabs him, pours the yellow
liquid over his head, chouses some of it
up his nose and into his eyes, and asks
the patient how he feels. "Headache
all gone." Another comes with the
tooLhbache, and is likewise healed ; ano
ther with rheumatism of forty years'
standing, and he is sent on his way re
joiemng-as well as ever he was. Then
the Doctor offers "a few bottles of this
wonderful medicine" at fifty cents a
bote<n h rw uhu,ads
eotter are they crowd tuhe ap, almosot
I
nr nra thov that thov me almost l
Doctor, let me have two dollars' worth
of roots and herbs-from the Indian
Territory," with a sly wink of his left
eye. "All right; . what sort do you
want?" "0, anything, so it aint pisen."
And he gets his roots and herbs and
prepares for the expectant public. And
thus it continued from day to day.
- It is needless to say that the Doetor
was much pleased with Newberry, and
will advise all his eminent brethren to
come this way.
