"Shackles Stricken from Hu
man Limbs and Fangs Extracted
from Human Souls," was the subject-
of an address delivered in
the Methodist church, Wednesday
night, by Col. J. E. Mowbray, Of
Philadelphia. He is one of" the
most entertaining temperance
speakers in the country, and pre
. sents his thoughts in an intelligent
and convincing manner.
With an edition approaching
close to a thousand copies last

hundred this week, and a probable
increase to twelve hundred next
- week, The Herald as an adver

county, is unapproachable in this

growth in our subscription list
surpasses our most sanguine hopes.

the scholars of the Morganton
Male Academy was largely attend
ed and pleasing to a)I present.
The boys acquitted themselves
creditably In the ; parts ta. "which

program. ..... .
From a typographical error
in the ad of those liberal adyertis
eijs, Lazarus Bros.; last week, it
may have appeared that they were:
"rushing the season." ' While they
are always up to date, they lo not
go so far ahead as -to offer "spring
goods for early fall buyers." The.
proper reading of the ad has been
made, and our proof reader "called"
down for the oversight..

--Tuesday presented in Morgan
ton no public evidence of the fact
that the anniversary of the birth
of the immortal George-Washing
ton, the Father of Our Country,
occurred on that day. Not eveta
the public display of a flag" com
memarated the event. We do not
attribute this to a lack of patriot
ism in the people, out rather to
unintentional negligence to organ
ize andumty theexistingindividual
sentiment into. public expression.
it is hoped this will be done
anotheryear.
-rMr. H. S. Pinkston: of Mor
ganton, was in .Salisbury on Tues
day and secured the sanction of
the State Council, Jr. O. U. A. M.,
to commence the publication, in
Morganton, of "a semi-monthly
paper in the interest of the order.
The Juniors have placed'this busi
ness in good hands, Mr. Pinkston
not only being a first-class printer
but an excellent writer and an
enthusiastic advocate of the order.
We do not fear ,to say that he will
meet unqualified support. The
first issue of the paper will appear
aDout March 15th.
At a meeting ot the railroad
commission in Raleigh on Satur
day last, the subject of an up town
telegraph office in Morganton was
discussed, l he principle testimony
in the matter was given by Mana
ger Drakeford, of the Asheville
office. He stated that the amount
of telegraph business done here
would not justify the maintenance
of an office in the business part of
town; that the annual telegraph
receipts at the depot wereabont
$600, only one-tenth of which came
from the business men of the town
proper; that a separate office could
hot. oe operated without, loss: at
present the railroad pays theoper
ator s salary and gets a percentage
ui receipts m return, further in
vcsugauon ot the sutnect was

"The Royal None Such," an ag
gregation of local histrionic ability,
held the boards at the Town Hall
on Monday night. . The character
of the program rendered probably
originated the appropriate baking
powder appellation of the. com
pany; as it brought out the risibil
ities of the refined and intelligent
audience that crowded the hall
from stage to doors, in almost con
tinuous vociferations. ;v ; -
The Morganton Cornet Band
played a number of selections of
music near the hall while the peo
ple assembled, and long before the
curtains of the stage were drawn
aside, every seat was taken and the
familiar sign at metropolitan the
aters,. "SjLanding Room Only,"
might appropriately have been dis
played, as many stood up near the
rear of the hall duririg.the" entire
performance. . . : ij ;.;

for fun,' arid that it was eminently
successful in producing the desired
results, the hearty laughter and
liberal applause of all present fully

and is always heard with pleasure

A violin duet by Miss - Florence

accompanied with the piano by
Miss Allatt, was well rendered and
reflected much credit on the young,
musicians.'

uproarous laughter and applause.
In appropriate costume of a patri

appreciated;-- "
! The event of the evening was
the negro character" song and
dance by I. T. Avery, esq.,, whose
rendition of the song "All Coons
Look Alike to Me," makes him eli
gible as a star performer in Prim
rose and i West's celebrated min
strels. As a black-cork artist he is
a decided success, and the manner
in, which he " Drought aown tne.
