tragedian, will appear in Hamlet to
night at Metropolitan Opera House.
The 'Rochester, N. T., Advertiseij.
says of a recent appearance of Mr.
Young there:
"James Young, the Southern actor
who essays the master role of Ham
let, appeared at the .Cook Opera
House last evening and was given a
hearty reception. The theater was
filled.; In the house Were maBjfof
the best known Sbakesperean stu
dents of fte city- 'The large audi
ence gave the star and his support
ing company the closest attention
for three and a quarter hours and-tJ
11:30 when, the curtain rang down '
on the performance; the impression
left was certainly favorable. The
appreciation of the audience spoke
stronger praiBe than any words the
critic may utter.
"The new star is of tender years
to play the part, considering the tra
ditions of the stage requiring that
the actor have years, although the
chacjter pe rtrayed J that of an in
experienced"prince. Mr. Young is
23 years of age, is of rather slight
physique,-, with a handsome, thought
ful-looking face. It requires little
make-up for him to picture the ideal
Hamlet
No one who saw the initial ap
pearanoe of the southern boy in this
city last night can question his re
markable gifts in elocution and act-
icg. It is a version of the part dif
fering in many, details from others
given in the past. The aotor nsed
rare art in interpreting the subtle
lines and bringing out all thesbades
of meaning. His voice is rich and
pleasant.
"Of the supporting-company It
may be said that they fairly met the
'requirements of their parts. Miss
Rida, Johnson, who. appeared as
Ophelia',' Is a talented actress. Miss
Ida Lewis, as Queen Gertrude, was
entitled to . praise Elimer Buff-

Greensboro' Small Pox Seare.
The Greensboro Record of yester
day publishes the following state
ment from Dr. W. P. Beall and Dr.
W. H. Brooks, two of the most
prominent physicians of thit place :
"A report wllh.the sensational
heading "Small Pox In Greensboro,"
appearad Sunday morning in the
daily papers. Such a report unex
plained, is calculated to do
harm to the town by creating a
needless panic, and we, therefore,
submit a full statement of the facts.
"On Friday afternoon a traveling
salesman came to Greensboro, and
not feeling well went to bis room in
the Benbow House and sent for a
physician. He found a suspicious
looking eruption on his body and
fter submittingthecase totwoother
doctors, deemed it sufficiently sus
picious to order the man removed
from the city and quarantined, which
was done Saturday night, as soon
as a proper place could be secured.
The room in which the man was has
been thoroughly " disinfected, bed
ding, etc., destroyed, inmates of the.
bouse and all others even recently
exposed vaccinated, and every step
taken to prevent the occurrence of
any new case here.
"We feel sure that under these cir
cumstances, no fears need b felt by
anyone, of outbreak of the disease.

Said to be in a Solvent Cod

bl Raleigh Hold Stock They Have Paid
in Abont $1S.OOO- Mr. McDonald's
Advise la for Owners
to Hold.
The Knoxville Tribune gives the
following information concerning
the Southern Building and
Loan '.I Association of Knoxville,
Terin. which is' in business trouble
and in which so many Raleigh peo
ple are interested.
At a meeting of the stockholders
of the Southern Building and Loan
association today a hard fijjht will
be made by outside stockholders to
not allow the association to go into
the hands of a permanent receiver
and wind up its business, but to
move the general offices to another
city and continue the business. At
lanta, Ga. , is the city suggested and
favored.
Tbe city is full of representatives
from in and out the state, who are
large stockholders in thcassoolation
and who also have the proxies of
many hundred shareholders who
will not attend the meeting. Repre
sentatives of $588,000 of paid-up
stock were holding meetings every
few hours yesterday discussing the
situation.
The gentlemen have had a special
examiner at work on the books and
at the meeting be reportad to them
that he had made a thorough exami
nation and found the association to
be In an excellent condition and per
fectly solvent. The remainder of
the morning was taken up in discus
sing what was the best policy to fol
low at the meeting today. At two
o'clock the gentlemen met and took up
the discussion of the general affairs
of the association and discussed the
idea of allowing the association to
wind up the business and the idea
met with repulse, as not a mem
ber was in favor of it. Strong talks
were made by many of those present
roasting tbe Knoxville. stockholders
for trying to withdraw their stock
from the Southern when they knew
it was only injuring the association
and their own Interests. One gen
tleman arose and told of a telegram
be had just received from an Atlanta
party making the proposition that if
the stockholders would vote at the
meeting today to remove the general
offices from this city to Atlanta they
would subscribe $300,000 to pay the
stockholders of Knoxville who de
sired to withdraw and that they
would insure a hearty welcome from
every citizen in Atlanta and their
hearty support.
Mr. W. H. Hunt, of San Antonia,
Texas, is the leading spirit in the
meeting. He represents 1,500 shares
of stock with a paid us stock of
$75,000, and in the interest of him
self and those he is representing
deems it advisable to remove the
general office.
Mr. Hunt will lead the fight for
the removal at today's meeting.
A reporter called upon Mr. Huut
last night at the Imperial and in
quired as to what couise tbe stock
holders would take at tbe meeting,
to which he replied :
"The stockholders, I believe,
will adopt resolutions fighting the
receivership. I do not see any rea-,
son for tbe appointment of a receiver
for an institution with three miUion
dollars assests, and nearly $500,000
undivided profits and not owing a
cent in the world'. I trust that the
court will deny the application for
a receiver. At our meetings today
of delegates, who are h'ere from a
distance, to discuss a plan of action
for tbe annual meeting it seems to
be tbe unanimous opinion of all
present, that the receivership would
be readily beaten and that the asso
ciation would continue its business
as usual
- Mr. C. C. McDonald informs us
that there is no need of any alarm
on the part of members of the Ral
eigh Branch of the Southern, as he
is perfectly satisned tney will re
ceive every cent of their money.11 The
association is perfectly solvent and
abletoi pay every-cent-It 'owes. J
Mr. McDonald says: 1'It. is likely
lhaVthe suit fof a 'receiver" wilrbe
dismissed and the association will.
continue business. In case a. repv
ceiver is appointed, the Stockholders
wilt be paid in futL Discourse it
win- taxe un. - n.
here are- 150 persons holding
stock in Raleigh in the Southern B.
& h. Association. They have about
815,000 invested. The company has
only two loans in Raleigh. Mr.
McDonald's advice to stockholders
is not to sacrifice their stock.
SNOW TOMORROW.
This the Coldest Moraine of the Winter-
Thermometer Will go Down.
Snow tomorrow and tomorrow
night.
That is the comforting news that
Col. von Herman spread forth today.
The dispenser of weather in his
forecast today says:
"Increasing cloudiness tonight
for Raleigh and vicinity. Snow
Wednesday and Wednesday night.
Continued cold; no moderation pos
ible for bojh diys."
The snow storm will strike uu to
m3rrow. It is impossible to tell
how long It will fall. Tbe weather
will continue to get cold after the
snow storm passes. The tempera
ture was 16 thismorning, thecoldest
on record this year. The thermome
ter will drop even lower.
The severe cold wave continues
to prevail over the entire country.
The lowest temperature this morn
ing occurred at Huron, South Dako
ta, (26) and St. Paul (24). Tbe
temperature is below zero from Kan
sas city through St. Louis, Cincin
nati, Pittsburg and Detroit. It is
10 above zero at Memphis and Knox
ville. A storm has developed in the Gulf
of Mexico, near Florida, which Is
causing heavy rains on Southern
Florida and snow in other extreme
southern States, at Galveston, Pal
estine and Vicksburg. The heaviest
precipitation was 1.03 inch at Key
West. The cold ware has not yet
reached Florida and the storm de
veloping there will keep it off for a
time.
