HALLOWS EVE.
Hallowe'en anrl Walpu gis Night
Doubtless Have a Common
Origin, Dating Back the
Earliest Belief in a Personal
and Allpowerful Evil One.
As Hallowe'en comes Saturday
the following, from "The Cen
tury Book of Facts," is of es
pecial interest just at this time:
"Hallows Eve, or Hallowe'en,
is the night of October 31st, the
pvo of All p-.'tv. r Shallows,
jJuy, v.uie.. ... .;..':... ... l:st,ar.d
13 probably a roue of pagan times
't uoii.:. v.-.; cv- ...iiiioii3,as it
has nothing v. Jiattver to do with
the church festival. In England
and r.;i'Und it is especially se
lected as the time lor trying
Hel!s v.v.6. d -j vi nations in love af
fairs. Ti.o superstitious tradi
tion regarding it is that it is the
night of all others when super
natural influences prevail: when
spirits of ! he invisible and visible
world walk abroad, for on this
mystic evening it was believed
that the human spirit was en
abled, bv the aid of supernatural
power, to detach itself from the
body and wander through the
realms of space. There is a sim
ilar superstition in Germany con
cerning Walpurgis night the
night preceding tne first of May.
On this night the German peas
ants believe that there is a witch
festival, or gathering of evil
.-oirits, on the summit of the
Brocken, in the Hartz Moun
tains, and the malign influence
of this convocation was believed
to ba felt all over the country.
It was an old custom, and still
observed in some places, to
light great bonfires of straw or
brush on that night, to drive
away the spirits of darkness sup
posed to be hovering in the air.
Considering that All Saints'
Day was originally kept on May
1st, there would appear to be
but little doubt that Allhallow
eve and Walpurgis night have
a common origin, which, doubt
less, dates back to the earliest
belief in a personal and all
powerful Evil One the Chal
dean's Power of Darkness."

on the quiet like the Ten-Nights-in-a-Bar-Room
Co., which per
formed under its own tent Mon
day evening, passed out a pretty
sorry performance. Pretty sorry.
But the tent was packed. Quite
so. Which is just as you expect
ed. It was cheap, you see, so
one could pat one's pocket and
go a way comforted by the thought
that it did not cost much. So
what's the use? But the band
was ail right, only it did better
stunts on the streets in the after
noon than it did under the tect
in the evening. Which was also
to be expected, no doubt.
And that very show crowded
out for that one evening ? better
show that was ready to enter
tain the crowd for less thar half
the money. But nobody knew
that until the next evening. And
the show in question is James
Adams' Ten-Cent Show, it is
here for v. weck'o t;.0.-.gement

"Peacetown"
"Peacetown," the production
offered by J. Early Hughes in
Lumberton Monday evening, is
said to be one of the cleanest
brightest bits of American humor
before the public to-day. It
deals with a realistic type of
American simple life. The scene
is laid in the little village of
Peacetown, Maine, and has to
do with certain events in the
life of Joshua Spivens, an eccen
tric type of American country
man. An interesting fact about the
play is that the author, Chas. 0.
Young, Jr., while on a hunting
trip through the State of Maine,
came purely by accident upon the
little village of Peacetown.
There he became acquainted with
a man whose character was so
unique that he knew a most
critical public could not fail to
be interested in the portrayal of
that character on the stage.
Realizing the natural fitness of
Mr. J. Early Hughes for the
portrayal of this fine character,
the play was written with this
end in view.
Peacetown is full of quaint
humor and is drawn very close
to life.
The cast has been carefully se
lected, comprising J. Early
Hughes, lato of the May Irwin
Co. ; Rose and Jeanette Bergere,
who will be remembered in the
London "Prince of Pilsen";
Mr. Clifford Green, a Metropoli
tan favorite; Bessie Jolly, John
New Pythian Ledge for Lumb r
ton.
A new Pythian lodge will be
instituted in Lumberton in the
near future. State Deputy Grand
Chancellor J. D. Nutt, of Wil
mington, who was in town Mon
day, was given a petition for a
new 'o Ige signed by thirty men,
the signers being made up large
ly of some of the best and most
substantial members of the clu
lodge, Lumberton Lodge No. 35.
The new lodge will probably be
known as Fidelity Lodge No. 202.
It is thought that fully half the
members of the old lodge will
transfer their membership to the
new.
Mullins, S. C, which was vis
ited by a fire Monday which de
stoyed tobacco to the extent of
$400,000, was visited by another

additional loss of 30,000. A to
bacco warehouse belonging to W.
C. Scott, valued at approximately
$25,000, with insurance at $16,
000, was wiped out. A sales sta

beingcovered by insurance.
