PRICE AND BONNELLI Will Appear at Thomas Opera House Friday January 5. This company is known as an organization of merit which is proving itself to be an attraction for the average playgoer who enjoys good oinorinor and daneincand a srood hear ty laugh. The children, too, are not forgotten, as they always enjoy the marvelous feats of the acrobats and jugglers. The Price and Bonelli Company numbers thirty performers, all w hite, who have been selected for their ability as minstrel artists of merit; singers, dancers, comedians, musicians and novelty artists vie with each other to make the performance bright and entertaining. Good comedy is a prominent feature of the programme, and has justly earned for Price and Bonelli's Minstrels the title of the Big Laughing Show. A grand parade, with the band and entire company, will be given here Friday. January 5, at noon; also a concert in front of the Thomas Opera House at 7:30 p. m. - ? ftllicrcaiiuy maovuiv One of the most interesting reports of many years from an historical point of view was the one submitted by W G Mazyek of Charleston, establishing the date of the institution of the grand lodge of South Carolina as 1736, making this session the 180 and distinguishing the grand lodge of - South Carolina as the oldest body of its kind on the American continents. Mr Mazyck is the esteemed lay reader at the Episcopal church here. CLOTHES IN SARDINIA. On* Place Where Women Don't Havt to Bother About New Stylet. i'ust as the girls of the various towns and provinces of Holland are to be distinguished by the peculiar form of their quaint headdresses, so fVia friylc rv-f Slorrl ininn villno'PS nrf wiv - e? known by the combination of colors in their costumes. The women and children dress alike ? full skirts, list ally dark red; white waists with full sleeves and short bright red or bright blue jackets, open in from or laced around the waist. In some districts the pattern of the apr%n is the distinctive feature. The styles never change among the women of Sardinia, who wear the native costume; so it repays the seamstress, the weaver and the embroider}' expert to make garments that will last a lifetime and can then be handed down as heirlooms for rising generations. Large white sleeves beneath the slashed sleeves of his jacket, a full, short, bright colored skirt and close fitting white trousers tucked into hir.h boots or leggings constitute the typical attire of the men. -In some districts of the island the men wear a pointed cap resembling a Phrygian bonnet, long and narrow like a stocking, reaching almost to the waist. This point either is worn down over the shoulders or folded on top of the head and may be used as a pillow at night. It is apt to contain anything from bread to snuff, which is indispensable to the older men. A queer custom of * some of the younger men is to let the hair on top of their heads grow often to fifteen inches in length and then roll it up into a puff, which lovks like a pompadour, across the forehead. A glimpse of a group of Sardinian shepherds, clad in their shaggy sheepskin mantles, which are supposed to ward off fevers, is enough to send a shudder down the spine of a stranger who has feasted upon th? out of date talcs of bandit ridden Sardinia, but the natives are harmless, and in spite of their bitter fight against hearv taxes and the relatively high oo>t of living they never annoy tiie tourists by beggiog, as do so many of the people of southern Italy.?National Geographic Xlagazine. England's "Gospel Oaks." At Polstead, Suffolk, there stiM exists a "gospel oak" which is over 2,000 years old. The oak has a girth of thirty-six feet, and, al though the "gospel oaks" generally stood on the boundaries of parishes, this tree stands in the center of the vidage. "Gospel oaks" at one time studded the country, taking their names from the fact that they served as stations from which the Christian missionaries preached to the Angles and Saxons 1,300 years ago. Very few of the trees now remain, but in some cases it is possible to tell vaguely where they stood from the names given to places such as G^pel Oak.?Pall Mall Gazette.
