MATINEE PERFORMANCE. The Limestone Chora! Society Have En gaged a Number of the Finest Singers in America for the Grand May Musical Festival. The first annual Music Festival of the Limestone Choral Society, will occur May 8th and 9th. Three con certs will be given; two evening, and one afternoon concert. The Choral Society will have the assistance of several of the finest soloists that can be secured in tliis country. They have engaged for soprano Mme. Evta Kileski Bradbury, of Bos ton, one of the best known artists of New England. Her beautiful, dra matic voice captivates all who hear her and her services are in great de mand, everywhere, this season. We can count ourselves fortunate in hav ing been able to secure her. Mr. Herbert Johnson, the magnifi cent tenor of Hie famous “Ituggie’s Street Quartette” of Boston, has been engaged. Mr. Johnson has of ten appeared at the great music festivals of Worcester, Mass., with the Handel and Hayden Oratorio Society of Boston; and with other famous choral organizations, where ills beautiful lyric voice lias won tiie hearts of all. The Bass Soloist, Mr. Joseph S. Baernstein, of New York, is the most famous basso on the American Con cert platform today. He is already engaged this season for nearly all the great choral festivals of this coun try, including the greatest festival ever held in America,—the 19th. National Sangerfest at Brooklyn, in June and July of this year. This will be the first appearance of these three artists in the South. Mrs. Craco Battis Brown, the teacher of voice culture at Lime stone College, will be the Muzzo-con- tralto soloist. Mrs. Brown is well- known to all Carolinians as a thor oughly reliable artist. Mr. Max Bcnciix, formerly concert- meister of the Theo. Thomas Orches tra, will be the solo violinist. Mr. Bendix is considered, by competent critics, the greatest American violin ist. He lias been heard in almost every part of this country, and once iieard, never forgotten. He will be heard at eacli concert and will prove a great attraction. The oilier soloists will be announc ed later. The Society, with the assistance of the soloists, will give Max Bruch’s “Fair Ellen,” Gounod's ‘‘CXXXVII Psalm,” and other shorter choral works. At the afternoon concert the artists will give a miscellaneous program, at which time will bo given, for the first time in South Carolina. Liza Leh mann's famous “In a Persian Car den.” This work has created a sen sation in the musical world, during the last few years, and this will be its first hearing in this section of the country. Low rates are assured on all rail roads in North and South Carolina. Season tickets, admitting to the throe concerts, will bo sold for $2 00 if purchased before April 2lth. After that date, all seats will be $1.00 for each concert. No single admission cen be reserved until the season ticket sale is concluded. Dr. W. B. Dul’re, at Dr. Crawley’s drug store, will have entire charge of the sale of tickets, and all reservations should he made at an early date to insure choice of seats. It is hoped that the citizens of Gaffney will enthusiastically support this first Festival of Hie Choral So ciety, thereby aiding them in their efforts to give the lovers of good mu sic, in this part of the South, a gen uine musical feast.

Mark Swan, leading man of “B ovn\- i i Town,” w) o is interested in the great national game, and says the Brooklyn’s will win the penant next season, lias written a thesis on “Base Ball Among The Ancients.” From Hiis are gleamed the following interesting points which help to es tablish his contentions. The devil was the first cracker—he cracked Eve when she stole first. Adam stole second. When Isaac met Rebecca at the well, she was walking with a pithuer, Samson struck out a great many times when ho beat Hie Philistines. Moses made his first run when ho slew the Egyptians. Cain made a big hit when he killed Able. Abraham made a sacrifice. The prodigal son made a home run. David was a great long distance thower. IDENTIFYING THE DEAD. Procnntloim Tr.kon l;y Rrltlnli Sol- dit-rx Beforo Going; lulu Hattie. The names cf the British killed and wounded after a battle are ascertained by means of the Identification cards which all our soldiers carry sowed up In the left hand corner of their khaki tunics. On the card are written the soldier’s name, rank, regimental number, to gether with the name and address of his next of kin. The latter are added so that the authorities may know where to forward the effects of any soldier who gets killed. After an engagement the roll Is called as soon as the regiments get back to their camp. Every man who does not answer Is “ticked off” as missing, and search is made for him on the field. As the search parties come across the dead and wounded men they rip open the tunic at the left hand corner and take out the identification card. The cards thus collected are carried back to camp and banded over to the clerks of the general in command, who therefrom compile the casualty lists. Af'cr all the cards have been collected the roll is checked again and a note made of those men of whom no trace has been discovered. These are usual ly presumed to have been taken prison ers. but ft docs not always follow that the assumption Is correct. In the corner of this tunic opposite the identification card every soldier carries a small pad of bandages, etc., for dressing a wound. Tills “field dressing,” as it is called, is added to “Tommy’s” equipment in order that ho may be his own surgeon until medical assistance arrives or may have the wherewithal on him to bind up the wounds of a chum. You will probably be surprised to learn that one of the last things “Tom my” does when ordered to the front is to make his will, although every regi ment contains a percentage of happy go lucky fellows who do not worry themselves about what will become of their property when they no longer re quire it.—London Mail. One Thlntr That Won’t Stop. Maria Mitchell, who has been called the “Mother of the Stars,” when pro fessor of astronomy and director of the observatory at Vassar was an In spiring teacher, and, in spite of her brusque manner and severity, was adored by her pupils. Every spring Just before the commencement she gave a “dome party” to the girls. Small tables were placed around the large telescope in the observatory, and roses from Miss Mitchell’s own garden brightened the atmosphere. Nonsense poems were a feature of these break fasts, and the astronomer was proud of her skill in writing them. She was not without a keen sense of fun, in spite of her constant and absorbing duties, ns was shown by her dryly con soling observation to an awestricken student whom she was leaving one day In charge of the instruments of the observatory. Looking back at the wor- ri«*d face of the girl, Miss Mitchell said: “And, remember, if the chronometer stops, the universe won’t stop.”—New York Commercial Advertiser.

In fact they were sufeited with wit, humor and light comedy, interspersed with catchy situations and fetching tab leaux.
