Tourgee who formerly circulated somewhat in this State as a Radical leader and always an incendiary, is lamenting the possible failure of the Force bill. Tourgee was one of the greatest frauds that ever drifted into or out of this section. In the days of reconstruction he told his Radical friends North a great cock and bull story about the finding of fourteen dead negroes in a mill pond who had been drowned by white men, a story told him by a Greensboro wag, for the truth of which he vouched. It answered his purpose, however, and it was extensively circulated. Tour gee has about as much sympathy for the Southern negro about whom he writes and prates so much as he has for the alligator family. The Pacific Union Club of San Francisco, rejected an application of King Kalakaua for a visitor's card for three months. They might stand him for a day, but they didn't think their stock of liquor would hold out for three months. They say when King Bill heard of this he did some of the most eloquent Hawaiian em phasizing that has been heard in San Francisco in fourteen years. Somebody in Indiana is raising a racket because Attorney General Miller used his official frank on a private letter. They think frankness is all right, but in this case that he was carrying it to excess. But why should they make such a fuss over a little two-cent matter of that kind while Mr. Miller's friends in Congress were getting away with everything in the treasury? Fire-Aiarm Foraker rises from the grave to remark that if "there is nothing in the way 'Blaine will be nominated In 1S92." A less astute corpse than Foraker might have made that same prediction. There may be nothing in the way of his nomination, but when it comes to his election he will find something in the waV about the size of Grover Cleveland. Margaret Manton, writing about a visit to the Senate chamber, says ot Senator Ingalls: "Whether he reads, writes or listens you feel that he is there." The same might be said about a polecat, or a William goat, or about frigid John Sherman, who chills the atmosphere for fourteen feet all around him. We always know when some people are about. Chicago is going to put up a nob by ten cent lodging house, seven stories high, with 360 rooms, baths, &c. The building will be handsome ly finished, heated by steam, light ed with electricity, supplied with ele vators, and handsomely furnished. And all this tor ten cents a lodge. A telegram from Opelika.

Very likely the best concert of the season will be the one to be given in the Opera House, Friday. January 2d, 1891, by the famous and universally pop ular Madame Fry's Concert Company, of Boston, announced in the columns of our advertisements to-day. As far as we know, our city has never had such a con cert as these skilled and celebrated female musicians can give. All the playing and singing is done by ladies, and in such a manner that they have not only become the riyals of the famous Boston Quintette, but even in some re spects more popular, as such grand mu sic from lady musicians is a novelty. The Seaman's Bethel. The regular Sunday services at the Seaman's Bethel will be held at half past three o'clock this afternoon, led by Rev. Tames Carmichael, D. D., Rector of St. John's Episcopal Church of this city. All are cordially invited to attend espec ially seamen. Masters of vessels are requested to have this notice read to their crews and uige upon their attend-ance. RNING N. Q., SUNDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1890 i OPERA HOUSE; A Large Audience Greet -the Prescott-'Mc-Lean Combination. One of, if not the largest audience of the season greeted the Prescott-McLean combination in "Cieopatra" last night. In selecting this strange, weird tale of Haggard's for dramatization, Miss Pres cott showed discriminating taste, for it is the only work in which the artist rises superior to the story-teller, and en chains his readers by his analysis of the character, giving to the world a woman we can separate from the background of action and contemplate as she was; not one who secured our attention solely by reason of the situations in which we found her. Haggard's conception of Cleopatra is the popular one; therefore for an actress to create the familiar personage of Egypt's queen in a manner to complete ly capture her audience as Miss Prescott did, is an evidence of high histrionic ability. Though at times the actress was too prominent, and the character essayed subordinated, yet on the whole it seemed as if we were present in the days when Egypt's Queen ruled in her beauty, and beneath the shadows of the Libyan hills were actors in the sad tragedy. The Harmachis of Mr. McLean was superb; his fine stage presence aiding greatly his aud lence in their apprecia tion of his excellent conception and per sonation of the noble prince. The company was very good and of a high class. A Bi Blaze But a Small Fire. Fire broke out last night in an underta kers shop :n the center of a row of small wooden buildings belonging to the Bet tincourt estate, on Second street near Princess. The place had been closed for the night sometime before and the flames which burst from the rear gave the first notice of the fire to per sons passing on the street. An alarm was strnt in from box No. 15, Front and Mulberry streets, and the engines and hose reels of the Department were soon, on the ground and in a remarkably short space of time had the fire under control and the flames extinguished without giving them a chance to extend to the buildings adjoining. The damage to the property will not exceed 150, and is probably covered by insurance. The owner of the undei taking shop, D. C. Evans, a colored man, had no insurance on his stock; his loss will amount to about 250. Isham Sweat, colored, occupied the place adjoining on the North as a barber shop, and sustained ome damage by water. The relief valves i,nd shut-off nozzles used by the Department were again brought in play and were of valuable service in preventing damage by water to property of the shop-keepers through whose premises it was found necessasy to carry lines of hose to play on the fire in the rear of the building. The paints, oils and varnishes and other material ir. Evans' shop made a big blaze which caused a great gathering of people in the neighborhood, the streets at the time being thronged with shoppers. But the crowd was in the main an orderly one, though the police were forced to arrest two or three col ored persons who were disorderly and insolent. BY RIVER AND RAIL.
