The first quarterly conference of the First aud Second Methodist Churches for this year was held at the parsonage last Saturday night at 8.30 o'clock, with Presiding Elder W. P. Moadors in the chair. Tne devotional exercises were conducted by the chair, after which the roll was called and a majority of the officials responded. The pastors submitted their reports on the spiritual aud financial status of their respective churches, which were very encouraging indeed. It w&9 decided to dispeuBe with the joint quar* terly conference of these two churches, and hereafter to transact the business of each in_seperate conferences. This was deemed advisable in order to simplify and expedite the business ot the two churches. Meters. Ira Harris and 8. M. Rice, Jr., E.

On Tuesday night Elwin Rostell, the celebrated American t.ragediau, ably assisted by Misa Margaret Delmond, a talented and accomplished actress, presented Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare's popular plays, in a very clever and artistic manner. Every phase ot the plays was rendered with charming effect and the audience enjoyed the performance very much indeed. On Wednesday night the popular Alba Hey wood Campauy was here and played to the largest audience that we have ever seen at the opera house. All the available seats were occupied and the galleries crowded Everybody nnn mm 1 # i\ nniatr t U A AAAnai/\n % oooiucvi i?w niv uvuaoivu iinhjcii* asly. As the prince of comedian^, Alba Hey wood is certainly a success. He kept his audience convulsed with laughter from the time the curtain was rahed until it went down at the close of the entertainment. He is an accomplished impersonator and we daresay stands without an equal. His confreres are all artists in their respective roles and completely captivated the audience. The music by Miss Dresher, the brilliant violiniste, and Mies Keimer, the accomplished pianiste, was superb, while Mr. De* Bray, the gifted basso, evoked hearty commendation. 1. hair,?~ Office Bank Building, Union, S.
