SPECIAL EXCURSIONS FOR
, TRINCE OF TONIGHFi
Manager Stallings has earned an
other vote of thanks from the theater-
goes in this and surrounding cities
since it has become known that ho
has secured the gorgeous musical
spectacle "Prince, of Tonight" for
' Tuesday night, February 9. This
moat popular musical comedy comes
to our city on Its initial Southern trip
and will be the first o fthe big met
ropolltan attractions to play our en-
terpsising city. Too much fcannot
be said of the success of "The Prince
of Tonight" for a show that runs for
260 nights in the 'city of Chicago at
one theater comes to us with suffi
cient endorsement to warrant the sup
pert of every theater-goer in this and
surrounding towns. The cast is head
ed by the capable leading man, Tom
Arnold, supported by an excellent
company and positively the best sing
ing and dancing choruses on the road.'
It requires two special cars to trans
port this organisation over the road
. and every piece of scenery and prop
erty required to present this attrac
tion Is carried by the company. The
musical numbers are rendered by thoir
own special musicians which will In
Itself be treat
- special excursions are lieing ar
ranged from the surrounding cities,
and it would be well for those desir
ing special choice seats to secure their
scats early. The sale is now going
on at the box office, and every indi
cation points to a record house in the
city.
Manager Stallings of the Grand
this morning had a telegram from
the manager of the theater in Green
vyle stating that "The Prince of To
night" did a record business there,
and waa the "best performance ever
seen in Greenville."
The trial of the "Rev." Thomas R.
Miller on the charge of abduction
took up about four hours of City
Court's time Friday afternoon. The
City Hall wouldn't begin to hold the
Immense crowd that gathered for the
occasion, and the scene was changed
to the courtroom at the Courthouse.
Evtn there the crowd, principally of
lawyers and negroes, .so effectually
Oiled the space that standing room
was all that was to be had a few
minutes after the hearing was begun.
Rev." Miller is the "apostle" of
the "Church of the living God,"
whose church is his home, in South
Kinston. There he has erected a sac
rificUl altar, and there he and his
flock worship, after their own ritual
and fashions, and make burnt offer
ings. He has exercised a great in
fluence over his followers, who are
considerable In number. -
Both the State and the defense
were well represented by counsel. The
defendant who, wearing a flowing
cloak of variegated hues, something
like the ceremonial dress worn in cer
tain secret fraternities, was easily
the most conspicuous figure in the big,
black assemblage. He wore the same
garb through the streets on his way
to the trial, escorted by 35 or 40 fe
male members of his cult The "Rev."
Thomas, to be brutally frank, looked
a rather repulsive specimen as he sat
in the dock and glared at his accus
ers.
The State and defense both had
witnesses galore. Over ninety were
summoned. ' l waa said many men's
wives had fallen under the influence
of the accused, "Doc" Davis, an East
Bright street colored man, declared
that his wife of twenty years had left
him when he remonstrated with her
over her association with Miller. That
was some months ago. He spoke to
her about her conduct end she told
him flatly that she would take the
preacher's advice in the matter in
preference to his. Then the woman
had walked away, to remain away.
Miller had broken up his home, but
Davis In the witness' chair, avoided
the eye of the usurper, who frowned
from his seat beside his counsel. Not
many of the witnesses were heard.
There was not time and it wasn't nec
essary. The State rested, and a mo
tion by the defensetodjpmlsa ,the
ease was overruled.
Tho court announced that it would
reserve its decision until after Miller
is tried on other charges, " "
This afternoon the "apostle" will
be arraigned on the charge of fornl-
