Saturday evening worthy of 1 special mention. A week before they attended a matinee to see Rip Van Winkle as advertised, but like many oth ers they were disappointed and instead of seeing Old Rip had to sit through a poor production of "The Kentucky Sheriff." Upon returning home and saying they "could have done better them selves" they were challenged to reprobuce it, which they did from memory, and in a most amusing manner. Miss Dorothy Howell as the dai.seurs brought down the house, while Miss Hat tie Hampton as the Star was 1 most entertaining. Misses Cribbf, Duke, Homewood and Mull were ! mirth provoicing to the extreme. It was truly a clever and enter taining burlesque. It seems that Colonel Thornton has one of the most handsome turnouts in town m a single team. W. 0. Player will open his fur niture store Friday. Phillips building, College Street Look him up. Large crowds are attending the show every night. The plays are sensational and cleverly pro duced. Cood programs' for the balance of week. Mr C. S. Wenger, of Pa. the engineer of the Water Power Electric Co of Hickory is in Hickory in compahy with Col. Thornton making plans and spec ifications for the Electric plant on the Catawba- river 3 miles from Hickory.

These teams are well matched, and we hope the boys will show up as well as they did Saturday. Lenoir College and the Hick ory Industrial Boys crossed bats on the Lenoir College diamond yesterday, the score being 18 to 3in favor of the 1 college. This ; is the second game between these teams this season. Come !• on boys, try them again. Tough ! luck.
