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

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.
