Mr. Bonitz was appointed county chairman by Mr. A. H. Snyder who has complete supervision of the wnrv for the State. The aDDOintment was by telegram and accepted immediate ly, Mr. Bonitz wiring for this city ana countys apportionment. The executive committee aDDoint- ed from St. Paul's church, is comnoa ed of Messrs, L. Hanson. J. H. Reh- ner, M. G. Tiencken, Ernest Strunck, ueorge Heyer, F. W. K. Fuchs, W. S.

That statement should be enough to satis: f y all that the evening was a delight ful one, for how could' it have been otherwise with the: inimitable Charlie on the scene. But the appearance of Coburn's minstrels warrants the use or more space. One does not want to get the idea that Gano, like Mitzie, s the whole show, because he isn t Despite the years he has taken on he s as good as ever, but he has asso ciated around him end men and com edians that forbid a monopoly on his part. Gano is still there, however, and Gano is still good and will remain good until his retirement.' He was unusually well received m his rendition of . "Granddaddy" and "Sammy Simpson Shot the Shoots." The work of James Bishop was par ticularly pleasing and he was given tumultous applause in his rendition of Good-Bye Broadway, Hello France." The quartette r work was a distinct eature and would stand greater usage than the director sees fit to arange or. The comedians with two or three exceptions, kept a wide distance -between themselves and the old line okes- and kept the audience in a fine humor throughout. The tumbling was another feature that helps to make the show what it is. The wench work of Mr. Denton was far above the ordinary and the "Don't eave Me Daddy" song, accompanied bv delicate kisses, on bald spots of the older men in the audience sent the house into convulsions. Coburn has come and gone, but Coburn has left another favorable impression and will be received with equally as mucn pleasure next year as the company was last night. CARD OF THANKS. I wish to thank publicly all those who were so kind and considerate during the recent illness and death of my beloved husband, Mr. I. S. King, assuring each and everyone tnat taeir kindness: their sympathy and their as sistance to me in the hour of my sreat bereavement will always be held in loving grateful memory- V ' MRS. I. S.

Plum mer, No. 213 North Front street, was entered last night and merchandise to the value of $55 or $60 carried off, it was discovered when the establish ment was opened for business this morning. Skleton key was used in opening the back door, in the opinion of Mr. Plummer, but he has absolute ly no idea who is carrying a key with out his knowledge that permits ac cess to his place whenever such jor- son decides to visit. The police were notified this morning and are conduct ing an investigation, but wthout re sults up until the noon hour. Chocolate, crushed pineapple and ice cream powder was carried off and while the theft will not necessitate cessation of operations in the factory end of the establishment, it inconven ienced the proprietor to the extent of having to borrow until newly ordered shipments can reach the city. A 50 pound barrel of powdered chocolate was moved, a $12 case of crushed piue- apple taken and a quantity of ice cream powder. There was no money in the cash register and no other mer chandise was taken so far as this morning's survey showed. The store was entered last week, Mr. Plummer stated, and a 60-pound barrel of butter taken, but no report was made to the police, Mr. Plummer believing that he could locate the stol en property. Last night's affair, how ever, took his breath and he report ed his loss to the police immediately after it was discovered. He is at a loss to understand how the thief or thieves gained access to the back door, without being detected in view of the fact that it abuts on the river which is under heavy guard He is satisnea tnat entrance was made by the rear door. The party or parties entering the store worked quietly and smoothly. Merchandise was not scattered about as is usually the case, the intruders merely taking the things selected, and departed. Because of the bulk of the stolen property, Mr. Plummer is con vinced that conveyance. of some sort was necessary for transporting the merchandise away from the rear of the store. .- ! . mm mm m m m m mbib -HBaivsvaH . 1 1 . .1 - . , . s t .11 lilitNiMwu mm rJlSSES BEAR and store entered and h v. ,' . . ,.M ENEMY AUENS IN.

EVERY PERSON NOW HAS A "BIT" TO DO That of the Railroad Man Is Among the Most Important One of the biggest lessons this country has- learned through its prep aration for war, is that we did not appreciate the. importance of. our rail- ( roads. War has demonstrated that not only tne comrort, dui tne lives or our people depend upon the efficiency of our railroads and those who op erate them. The country has learned this les son and during the scarcity of cdal we suddenly 'became very anxious about the general welfare of the rail road men. Railroad work is hard. From the president of the. road down to the humblest track hand they have tasks that wear on men and it is dif ficult to keep up strength for this work. Graham B. Waddell, a railroad man who lives at 27 S, Swain street, Raleigh, knows what this means as he suffered a break down in his health of which he speaks as follows: "I have been under the weather with indigestion for some time. My appetite was not what it should have been and a good night's rest was out of. the question. I was all run down and could feel myself slipping fast I read the favorable endorsements of Peplao by people here in Raleigh, whose symptoms were the same as mine, and I lost no time in trying a Bottle. It improved my sleep at, once; gave me a hearty appetite and indi gestion has left me. I feel stronger in every way and am glad to add my endorsement. To those in doubt I would say try Peplac,'you won't -go wrong." If doing one's bit entitles one to credit. Peplac has earned a lot of glory. This great remedy is doing a big "bit" by restoring the health of soldiers, sailors, Red Cross workers, railroaders and men in every walk of life. There are many others who have yet to learn the joy of good health through Peplac. This great restorative and tonic 1s sold at the R. R. Bellamy drug store and at all Reading drug stores in Wil mington and vicinity. Adv. NOTICE OF REGISTRATION AND PRIMARY F.
