X>amon and Pythias, under the aus pices of Limestone Lodge No. 74, K. of P.’s, was presented at the Star Theatre on Wednesday evening. The date was changed from Tuesday ev ening. the date originally set for the play, to Wednesday j i account of the Inclement weather of Tuesday. , A fair sized house . .eeted the rise of the curtain and those attending en joyed the performance to the utmost. Splendid local talent was assisted materially by professional help. The play was under the able direction of Mr. Edward D’OIze, of Baltimore, who essayed the part of Damon in the cast. The entire cast appeared to an advantage that showed the capable hand of an artist in his line. Among the male parts Mr. D’Oize as Damon, and Mr. E. B. Clarke as Pythias, deserve especial praise. Th/ work of Mrs. D’Oize as Calanthe was of the highest order, while Mrs. W. H. Gooding exhibited great dramatic power in the difficult role of Hermlon Master Francis Laney as Damon’s child was excellent. As an actor the child was a complete success, carry ing off his part as cleverly as any professional juvenile actor. Everybody in the cast acquitted themselves creditably. In fact, con sidering the limited time of practice It was an excedingly clever presenta tion—an artistic success. The following is the cast of charac ters: Damon Edward D’Oize Pythias E. B. Clarke Dionysius J- C. Otts Philistius J- J- Darby Damocles W, S. Hall, Jr. Procles H. K. Osborne Lucullus '■ Frank ,Folger Damon’s Child Francis Laney Calanthe Mrs. Edward D’Oize Hermlon Mrs. W. H.

W© Are After the Prize. In May .he Craddock-Terry Co., of Lynchburg, Va., offered three prizes of $10.00 each for the best ad ertlse- ment of their Southland Belle and Southern Girl shoes. These prizes were open to the world. Carroll & Byers, of this city, handle their goods and w’hile thev did not enter the contest thev forwarded the Crad- tlock-Terry company a copy of The Ledger containing an advertisement of their shoes. The Craddock-Terry company write Messrs. Carroll & By ers that while thev did not win a prize they were eighth out of all the papers sent in—several thousand In number. This is pretty good for a country town, where the compositor and the ad. w'riter did not know of the con test and- were making no effort to get the prize. The Craddock-Terry com pany are making the same offer for June and The Ledger and Carroll & Byers are going after one of these prizes in dead earnest this time. NOTICE.
