The Central Record published at
Lancaster, Ky., has the following to
say concerning the Herald Pquare
Opera Co., which is to present “La
Mascotte” in this city tomorrow
night:
“By far the best attraction presen
ted at the local Opera House since
its opening to the public last year,
was the appearance of the Herald
Square Opera Co.,Friday evening. Said
Pasha was the attraction, and the
magnificient singing, combined with
the rare jollity and the real mirth
captured the audience, which time
and again encored the many brilliant
passages in both the solo and chorus
work.
“The promise of fine acting, pretty
girls and beautiful costumes was ful
filled, and on all sides one hears
words of praise for the entire company.
Many of the solos were exqusitd and
the happy blending of the voices in
the choruses made grand melody.
There was not a dull moment in the
performance. Misses Mamie Scott
and Etta Stetson, as Serena and Alti,
carried off the honors of the evening,
for their voices and physical charms
were in full accord. Robt. Kane in
the dual roles of Hessan Bey and the
Rajah was fine. In the duets with
Serena his baritone and her rich so
prano made sweet melody. Edward
Kissam in the title role was good,
while Harry Nelson, asTerano, scored
a success. The rich fun of the
evening came from T. F. Caliahan
and Jack Lesli e, as Hadad and
Mockey, the latter being a star fun-
maker, winning round after round of
merited applause. Miss Annie Blesin-
ger, as Bellah Sojah, aided in the suc
cess of the evening.
“Olivette was presented Saturday
evening and was as greatly enjoyed
as Said Pasha.”
Gaffney should show its appreciation
of the effort of the local management
to secure the best possible attractions
for this city by crowding the house
to the doors tomorrow night, for this
is in every respect ‘one of the best
attractions that will be here this sea
son.
Nearly every reserved seat in the
house had been sold for this per
formance last night, there yet re
maining less than one hundred to be
sold, so if you want a seat you had
better hurry.

State C MW.table ConllseateH Ninety IMutS of
^ i.f&iictliinK Marked “Bitters.”
Cortfttable John Bishop seized
about, ninety pints of liquid at Taco-
let /ast week which he classed as rye
whiakey. It seems that it was ad
dressed to Mr. C. H. Robbins, who
ruais a store near Trough, and he said
it, was sarsaparilla which he had or
dered to put on sale. It is not
known, just yet, what steps he will
take in the matter. An exchange
says Mr. Robbins “claims that the
state constables are enemies of all
mankind and iiave cruelly deprived a
suffering world of a healing balm.”
Constable Bishop, on the other
hand, says *‘he may not know beans,
but he does know what whiskey is,”
and he is sure that the “sarsaparilla”
was nothing else but excellent rye.
Several others who “sampled” the
disputed stuff agreed with the con
stable that it was the genuine article.
The bottles were labeled “bitters,”
with a label not usually seen on
medicines, and were minus any
revenue stamps—so the report goes.
It is stated further that the state
chemist will make a report on the
beverage and ascertain whether it is
“better for indigestion than for paint
ing the town.”
A Hawk Capturt-d.
A few days ago Mr, R. H. McCraw,
who lives a short distance in the
country, caught a blue hen hawk in
his dwelling house. The hawk, it
seems, was chasing a wren, or spar
row, and when the bird flew into the
house, either accidentally, or pur
posely to escape capture, it followed.
The doors to the room were imme
diately shut, and after some lively
chasing and much “scrambling,” the
hawk was captured and killed.
The Docket Yesterday Morning Whs I.lRbt
and Ills Honor Tender-Hearted.
The docket in the Mayor’s court
was not so heavy yesterday morning
as it Imp bgen “many a time before,”
and the offenders generally were old
ones who have been regular atten
danta upon the Monday morning
matinees presided ove* by Mayor
Littlejohn.
George Corry, a colored sport, was
first on the list and be was called to
answer the charge of disorderly con
duct. George couldn’t “prove i
alibi,” and he was requested to de
posit $G 40 for fcis misdemeanor, or to
aid Capt. Tbackgton's gang for the
term of twenty days In improving
and beautifying the streets of the
city. Ho paid the fine.
Will Allen, Charlie Reynolds, Babe
Lynch, Roland Kennedy and Will
Littlejohn, all colored individuals
who are well versed In the ways and
means of getting a living by their
wits and by following the allurements
of the fickle goddess n/ fortune, were
up for gambling, and Reynolds on
the e*tra charge of carrying conceal
ed weapons. They were each fined
$2.00, or five days on the gang, for
this violation of the town ordinances,
and Reynolds was required to Day an
additional $5 00, or work on the
streets twenty days, for carrying his
pistol concealed. AH paid, with the
exception of Littlejohn, who, on ac
count of a disabled hand, was permit
ted, through the kindness of Mayor
Littlejohn, to go until he was able to
work or pay his fine.
Clint Robbs Indulged too freely in
the “chemically pure,” which exhil-
erated his spirits to such an extent
that he became disorderly and unable
to navigate in the manner usual to
natural members of the human race.
He was taken in tow by an officer
and yesterday morning paid five
hard-earned dollars for his fun.
John Graham, who is a familiar
figure in the mayor’s court-room,
yet has such a dislike for the place
that he will not visit it unless con
ducted there by a biuecoat, was fined
a dollar, with the alternative of ex
pending his energies upon the streets
for ten days, for failing to appear as
a witness in a case against another or
others. John paid the amount, in
hard cash, and doubtless wished he
had obeyed the summons. The mayor
was in quite a tender-hearted mood
during the proceedings and was very
lenient with the offenders.

Fortunately, a friend advised trying
Electric Bitters: and to my great Joy

their use for three weeks, and am
