NEW OPERA HOUSE OPENS Although Not Quite Finished Is a Handsome Building and are Jostly Proud oHf THE BASEBALL FEVER Mayor and Board of Aldermen See First Play In New Opera House 933,000 Damage Suit Compromis ed Durham Seems to be Baseball Mad Yottng Man Was Arrested for Desertion of Wife Farmers' Association Will Spend One Day In Durham Growth of Kdgemont, a Suburb of Durham. (Special to The Times) Durham, N. C, Oct. 8 Durham's new playhouse went open to the pub lic last night and though slightly un finished, it had nevertheless enough of interior beauty to show what a handsome academy of music the peo ple are to enjoy in the future. The mayor and board of aldermen sal. under the pleasing lines of the "Man of the Hour," a play whicii caused mayor and board of aldermen in the plot to show themselves. The house was not so large as had been expected but the showing was good. The Parker case against the Southern will not be tried, and tho.ugh the court record shows simply a continuance, it is understood that there has been effected a settlement that will be satisfactory. The agreement has not been fully perfected but this great litigation of $35,000 will never come to trial. There was an agreement that tbe fig ures of the compromise should be as sldiously kept from the public and to date the attorneys in the suit appear to have succeeded mbdestly well. President R. H. Wright, of the Traction Company announces r that he will start at once to putting the park in shape for baseball next spring, though of course there will be a long time required in getting every thing ready. The baseball fever has not abated and there appears little doubt that the season will be opened next spring. There is an effort on foot now to get Dr. M. T. Adkins, who trains Trinity's baseball team and ' pitches during the summer months for Baltimore, to come here and coach Durham's team, manage it and pitch on it. He is a physician also and would perhaps find this city a fine place to locate. The desire to get in the league is a, burning one and there will be no cessation of the agitation. Clarence Crumpler, a good looking white man of Wilson, was arrested yesterday morning by Deputy Pleas ants in West Durham, where Crump ler was working on the new mill. The youngster had not been long married and is charged with having deserted his wife. Such was the na ture of the charge against him, that a message was received asking that he be allowed no bail. He will be sent home this morning to stand trial. Crumpler was detected by photo graphs which had been sent the day before by the Wilson authorities. Both he and Mrs. Crumpler are said in the messages here to be of gool family. The National Farmer Association which meets in Raleigh state fair week, October come to Durham on its sr.end a day in tiie city. during the 18-23, will return and Plans for a big entertainment of the agricultural ists are being made by Colonel Bene han Cameron, who will pilot pern through Durham. They stop over here, take In the tobacco warehouses, the factories and are wheeled over the roads of. Durham. As most of these planters come from entirely different sections of the country from those in whicii we live, many of them have never seen a tobacco factory and know but little of its culture. The visitors will spend several days in .orth Carolina while on the return- to their home. They are book ed to give Greensboro a date and will 'take In , Winston-Salem, where to bacco is ns much a business as here. Indeed, In that . hyphenated town, there are manufactured four-flfth3 of chose officers for the ensuing year, the flat plug tobacco of the world.

Edgemont, a section of the city which has not had any too much said of its latest institutions, is a slice of thi smuniclpallty that has done a few things. The Edgemont Baptists have re cently finished a revival which re sulted in the baptism of 42 converts and the Presbyterians have started a congregation of seventy members. What ugliness of past that Edge mont has had, is now being forgot ten by its citizens, who say there are many good things now. The Golden Belt and Durham Hos iery Mills have run constantly and say they heard of no panic and issued no script. These furnish employment for a greater number of people, it is said, than any two mills in the city The Edgemont drug store has late ly added a new front which will greatly beautify it and it has come to take a permanent place in tbe life of that suburb. Still more recently the board of aldermen have given tho citizens of Edgemont a market which permits them to see their meats cut up be fore they purchase these food pro ducts. In other words, as one of Edgemont's foremost citizens writes: "Those people are now living in town." DURHAM PERSONALS. Much Travelling In and Around the City. (Special to The Times.) Durham, N.
