The colored people will give a grand musical concert at the Shaw Univer sity tomorro (Wednesday) evening at 8 o'clock. Now is your chance to enjoy a rare musical treat. Visitors in the city will find a cordial welcome and a pleasant entertainment. Ah an actor, author and manager, Milton Nobles has, during a protes sional career covering nearly a quart er of a century, made a record that is a credit to bis name and an honor to his guild. No living actor is held in higher esteem by his fellow players and the public at large. His plays have all been successful, and, beyond any other American dramatist, he has succeeded in producing purely American phvs, dealing with Ameri cm themes and introducing typical and tangible phases of American character. Mr. Nobles and his bril liant young wife will present during this engagement, Mr. Nobles' latest, and probably strongest play, ' From Sire to Son." Dollie Nobles' exquisite performance of the dual roal of Mabel Armitage, mother and daughter, is a stage realization that one will not encoun ter many times during tne lire ,ime of an average theatre goer. No one who sees Mrs Nobjes in the character of Mabel Armitage is likely to boou forget the pretty picture of purity and innocence she presents. To the man of the wotW who has come in contact wiih life on this sin stained earth in all its .phases it seems like the glimpse of an angel, a breath from Heaven, a vision or a dream, rather than a reality. The man who has guzed upon this picture must in deed be a harden' d wretch, if he is not touched by it. Mr. Nobles' Armitage is a perform ... . 1 3 ance cnaracceristic i xne iuau nun entirely unlike any tne else. The great charm of his acting lies in the naturalness of his method. There is no straining for effect, no ' sound of fury, signifying nothing." The strong intellectual caliber of the man who conceived and created the character is at all times perceptible in the per formanc. His acting during the progress of the various acts is notice able for quiet intensity and real feel ing while the sudden outbursts of passion with which he terminates the second and third acts arouses hie audiences to the highest pitch of en thusiasm, resulting nightly in double calls. The supporting company is the strongest Mr, Nob es has ever carried, and that is saying much for he has never had a poor supporting oom pany. For the duties assigned them their suDeriors could scarcely be found fra the profession Of a com pany including such artists as Burt G. Clark, L. R. Willard, Mary Daven port, etc., much is to be expected, and, 'in the present case, expectation is more than realized. All That Swearing io vesterday's VidToa was a misun derstanding of the typo. While we are positive we have the seamless black hose and wiU on next Monday sell them at 10 cents a pair, yet we are not swearing about it, but if it was necessary would swar that .we have a big lot of misses long seamless ribbed hose, regular 25c goods, and that on Monday next we will sell these hose at lc a pair, and on Mon day only at 10c, for 21c hose, on next Monday. 1).

News Gathering. This news hunting is sometimes amusing ana generally instructive, but most of all, it throws light upon human character and briugs out prominent traits in their true coto s to an extent that nothiug else does, but for the present we do not propose to discuss along this line except just tcsay, Liie "1" in hum in nature is just the biggest thiDg there is in it; and, funny as it may seem, we cannot seethe "1" except s it appears in others. But enough of this. We started out for news shis morning and at the court house we found Judge Whitaker in a very deliborate man ner charging the jury in the case of William Mitchell and wife against Sallie Hall, which had been occupy ing the court since Saturday. We went next to the Register of Deeds office, and were there informed that the Board of County Commis sioners had gone on an official visit inabedytothe "Home of the Aged and Infirm" of the county (this is an admirable charge of name) to see what is necessary to make these peos pie comfortable Next we called at the Mayor's office and found our friend, the Chief, busy as usual. His laconic reply to our in- buiry was, "No news at all here ex cept one drunk and twelve hours.' We next tackled a gentleman on the street and he began a long recital of grievances against somebody, and then the next began the same, till we becoming ourselves Keenly conscious of how that ever present "ego" lense through which we all look makes everything appear different to rs from what other people see, we hied ourselves away to the Yarboro and there we found a man's name regis tered with an "M. D." after it and then we stopped. N MAN run lianpy with his face nil scraped nnO sore from SHAVING No man can shave well with a sor ry razor, The moral is to call and bay A GOOD RAZOR.
