WELL PATRONIZED Pi ewaled la New Ben Last Niqjit to a Larfc AwHem*? Prob* ably L Mt Performance. New Bern la an ideal town to visit, especially no ' when Its citizens are called on to patronlae and give ap proval to some effort put forth by their neighbors. Yesterday It was the good fortune of quite a number from Washington to pay a visit to the chief city of Craven county. "8ylvla" was the chief attraction In New Bern, and be sides the members 6t the company a large number of outsiders took ad vantage of the occaaton and went along to see what this city Is doing towards development. A special train was operated for the occasion, leaving Washington at S:96 p. m. and was scheduled to leave on the. return trip at 11:30 same evening. For some reason un known to the manager of the opera, Mr. Prank A. Wright, the time of de parture for Washington was changed to l o'clock. The railroad officials ataW that sone one gave thaw orders to latd the train until 1 and they did so. judging the orders came from the pi|l? source. Mr. Wrigfct, however. .??* ** of the change and when he ascertained what had been done used every effort to get the railroad to rescind the order, but as no communication could be secured with Norfolk the order to leave at 1 had to be carried out. much to the discomfort of a great many. The party arrt home at 3 o'clock this morning, tired and sleepy. All the party ensconced at the Oem hotel where eveythlng was done for the comfort and convenience of the guests. The Washington Concert Band proved quite an adjunct to the enjoyment, of the occasion. Their music in New Bern was the subject for favorable comment. The Dally News knows of no similar organisa tion In North Carolina Its peer to A large audience greeted "Sylvia" at the opera house an$ the perform ance aeemed-.to hit the New Bern folk In the right spot, Judging troi* the amount of applause. The acting of the entire company was all that could be desired by any audience and New Bern seemed trf ap preciate the efforts exerted. Nothing bqt the hlghesr^commendatlon was heard for the performance In Its en tirely and It was deserving. "Sylvia" was a success in Washington, a suc cess" In Wilson, and a success In New Bern. Washington should feel proud of Its musical talent -for they have certainly "delivered the goods" In "8ylvla." The visit to New Bern was a most pleasant one. TONIGHT AT THK GAIETY.
