"THE HOLY CITY." A Strong Play-Presented by a Re msrkably Strong 1omijany-At the Opera House Tonight. While in attendane upon the dis tct c( en*1ven t#In of tie KniIlts of Pvthian in ('affnev this week. it was 0I" plva.-e tI' hoar and s6e the presentation of "The Holy City." The story as recorded in the scrip tures by the evanzelists. is very closely followed in the presentation of thi- play, and in connection with it is inte:-woven a thread of romance, which deals with the love of Salome, the dau-hter of Herodias. for Marius, a youn, Remaii. lhe ]ove story reach ing its climax when Salome, through mistake. pier-es Marius with her da. ger, taking him for Andrew. She ac cepts the Christian faith and turns the dagger upon her own body and falls lifeless upon the body of Mar ins. Marius had also accepted the Christian faith and had resisted the passionate love of Salome. In the play there are presented the characters of Caiphas. Pontius Pilate, Herod, Herodias. Salome, John the Baptist. Peter, Andrew, Nicodemus, Judas Iscariot, Elizabeth, mother of John, and Mary Magdalene. The cruci.fixion, which is shown on can vas, is taken from Michael Angelo's masterpiece. The acting is very fine, and .the play is a very difficult one and calls for talent above the ordinary. Miss Pauline A. Harice. as Salome; John F. Duorak, as John the Baptist; Clay Clement, Jr., as Marius; L. D. Kirk, as Pontius Pilate were very good, and J. H. Williams, as Andrew was exceptionably good. Iii fact, the company is well balanced throughout. The stage setting and scenery as well as the costumes, represent the period from which the play is taken. Th'e dance of Salome before Herod is one of the scenes, which is portrayed in the play, and it is not as extreme as some of the other plays of a similar character. The bringing in of the head of John the Baptist on a charger, and the purchase of Judas with the thirty pieces of silver are other scenes, which are portrayed in the play. In fact, we saw nothing in it, which could offend anyone, and it is pres ented by a very strong company. You should see it at the opera house tonight. Johnson-Steele. *Invitations have been received in Newberry to the marriage of Miss Lila Johnson, of Charleston, to Mr. Alexis Preston Steele, of North Car ~olina, which will take place on Tiues day evening at 9 o'clock, October 3?st, at the home of the bride's father, Mr. Oscar E.

OCTOBER PEACHES. Mr. Clary, of Saluda County Has IN Peaches for Five Months in the 3 Year-Had Them This Year. ( Mr. R. C. Claty. who lives in Salu da vonIy. told us in the spring when W,t bap1eed to be along by his home, that he had never missed a peach crop on that place since he had lived there, t whieh had been many years; that he has peaches for five months in the year, so to prove by practical demon stration that his statements were cor rect. he came to Newberry yesterday and left with us a dozen or more Oe tober peaeies. and stated that he had had peaclies even this year for five months. Of course the October peaches were small, but they were peaches. If the location of his place has any thing to do with the regularity of a fruit crop. it would seem that it would pay him to plant a large orchard of peaches. Mr. B. M. Sloan, who lives some three miles east of Newberry, had a pretty good crop of peaches this year, and in a few other sections of the county there was some fruit, but the fruit crop was as near a failure throughout this section this year as we have ever known.
