( THEATRICAL )
DIXIE MIMSTRELS TONIGHT.
i' What tile St. Joseph News-Press
has to say of the Dixie Minstrels at
the Academy of Music tonight:
"The Dandy Dixie Minstrels, all
negroes, last night scored a decided
i!t with one of the ' largest Lyceum
audiences of the . season. The com
pany Is made up of half a dozen so
loists of merit, four , punsters who
annexed a number of original jokes,
and includes one of the best negro
choruses heard here and a host of
clever dancers. The opening scene
is wall set, a reproduction of Palm
Beach, Florida."
THE WRONG DIAGNOSIS.
Prompt the Use of Worthless Rem-
' .- dies. , -.
'Even an experienced physician
wi:i sometimes make a mistake in
diagnosis, in which event his entire
treatment is wasted and may even
be injurious to the patient.
,,! The advocates of all other hair
restoratives " Bave Herpicide have
wrongly diagnosed the cause of
Dandruff and Palling Hair.
They figure on a functional disease
whereas it is now known and gener
ally accepted that hair loss is due
to a parasitic germ which Newbro's
Herpicid 3 destroys. ;
w There is no substitute for Herpi
cide, accept none. '

CHAIRMAN OATES
TO MINISTERS
State Chairman Oates, of the Anti
Saloon League, has Issued the fol
lowing statement to the preachers of
the state:
Dear Brethren: The 11 vest ques
tion before the people of North Caro
lina today is that of prohibition. It
is the talk in the homes, in the
stores and shops and on the farms
and highways.
This good day of an aroused public
conscience on the liquor question has
come more largely through the work
of the preachers than through any
other cause. And now that the is
sue is squarely drawn before the peo
ple, I am sure that our preachers will
make the next three months busy
ones in the fight to protect the homes
and churches and schools of the
state from their greatest enemy, the
liquor traffic.
The preachers hold the key to the
situation. By their visiting through i
the week and by their sermons on
Sunday they can reach and influence
the people of the state as no other
class of men can. This is the oppor
tunity, brethren, to bring to a happy
fruition all of your sowing for tem
perance through the years.
Brethren, there is not a day to
lose. Organize and agitate; agitate
and organize. Hold rallies; have
mass meetings; train the children in
songs and recitations. Help the good
women to organize and start the
campaign for the defense of their
homes and firesides. Make March
temperance month in each of your
churches. Do not wait, but start the
ball to rolling. This is . not a cam
paign in the aggregate, but one where
every man Is expected to use every
power within his own grasp to over
throw the liquor traffic in this state.
You know the situation and needs
in your locality, and I trust that the
moral forces there will achieve a
great victory for righteousness.
, Write me for literature or Infor
mation and please report the prog
ress of jour work.
Sincerely,
JOHN A. DATES,
Chairman.

LEFT TO
But That Is Time Enough ro
Aoy Contestant's Friends
to Place Her In the
Lead to see the Play
Voting is getting very heavy for
the three fine prizes offered by the
Evening Times to the three most
popular ladies of Raleigh and vicin
ity. : Several of those who made a
bad start are rapidly forging ahead,
and threatening to overtake the
leaders. But three more working
days remain ia which the best efforts
of t:ie contestants and their friends
will be put forth. The contest closes
promptly at noon next Monday, and
no votes can be counted after that
hour.
The lady receiving the most votes
will be presented, with a stage box
for the farewell performance of "Tho
Clansman" at the Academy next
Tuesday night, March 3rd. The next
highest number of votes will entitle
the recipient to four choice seats,
and the third largest vote will give
the lady receiving it two best seats.
The Evening Times takes pleasure
today in telling its readers some
thing about the comedians in "The
Clansman." ' Miss Durant, the chief
mirth-maker of "The Clansman," is
a second cousin of the late Presi
dent Jefferson Davis of the Southern
Confederacy. Her father, ex-Mayor
Davis, of Peru, Ind., was a warm
Southern sympathizer during the
war between the states, and is now
a resident of Bedford City, Va. Miss
Durand sustains the part of Mammy
Eve, tha delicious old darkey, who
recalls to every auditor the love and
kindliness that prevailed between
the races In the days "befoh de war."
In har work the actress is ably sup
ported by Mr. Maxwell as Uncle
Neuse, the darkey butler, and by Mr.
Richardson as the, worthless no
account negro Sheriff Aleck. Mr.
Maxwell is the veteran of tha black
cork stage, the pioneer minstrel who
went to London with Jack Haverly
in 1878, and an actor much liked, in
Raleigh for his clever impersonation
of the darkey Sassafras in "The
County 'Chairman." He is a New
Orleans boy, and has been a stellar
porformer of coon parts for the past
thirty years. Of equal merit is
Richardson, whose stage experience
has been versatile, and who can do
anything from a blacked-up minstrel
to a whlte-caokered dominie. He Is
an excellent musician, as well as ac
tor. More than once Richardson has
baen ejected from the stage door as
a sure enough local negro who had
no business in the uouse.

Weather Conditions.
As the storm central ; yesterday
over the Lakes, advanced to the east,
it was attended by precipitation In
the Middle and New England States.
This storm was followed by the
western high which now occupies
the central portion of the country,
and has caused clear weather and a
general fall in temperature from the
Rockies eastward to the Atlantic
ocean. A marked low pressure area
lies central over Canada north of
Montana and extends over the pla
teau region, accompanied by higher
temperatures. Except in the extreme
Northeast, the temperatures east of
the, Mississippi River are below nor
mal!' while west of this river, they
are: generally above normal,
The western high pressure area
wijl continue to move to the east
causing fair weather in this vicinity,
tonight and Friday.

When Will Raleigh people Learn the
; Importance of It? . . !'
Backache is only a simple thing

That serious kidney troubles fol

That diabetes, Brlght's disease
may be the fatal end.
You will gladly profit by the fol
lowing experience.
Tis the statement of a Raleigh
citizen. '.
Joseph E. Pool, 316 South Person
street Raleigh, N. C, says: "Doan's
Kidney Pills proved in my case to
be a most valuable remedy for kid
ney trouble and it gives me pleasure
to endorse them. A lameness through
tha small of my back and severe
pains through my loins bothered me
a great deal, at times making my
condition such that I could not
work. To stoop, or lift, sent sharp
twinges coursing through my body
and though I applied plasters to my
back, I became no better. The kid
ney secretions were highly colored
and contained a sediment and from
these symptoms, I decided that my
kidneys were out of order. Hearing
Doan's Kidney Pills highly recom
mended, I procured a box from . the
Bobbitt-Wynne Drug Co. Since using
them every symptom of kidney trou
ble has been eradicated and I feel
better in every way." ,
