The l'iist Tlieatiical Attraction at
The (iraiitl a Uig Farce Last
Night.
A gool house was at the tlrand
last niKlit to witness the lirst theatri
cal attraction taere, "The Man on the
i!ox." The storv as told by Harold
Met; rath is a .popular one and the
audience was looking forward to a
delightful presentation of the popu
lar play.
The less said about the show the
better, the wiiole .performance, with
the exception of Mr. liert l.elgh, in
the Stellar role, being about the blg-ges-
farce ever imposed on a Raleigh
audience. It was poorly staged, tne
actors were overloaded with 'make
up" while most of tlfe parts were
played line amateurs.
Bert I.eigh, as Lieutenant Robert
Warburton, lately resigned, masques-
ading as a groom, was the one re-
deein.ng feature; in iact, he was the
whole snow. Kudowed with an un
usual amount ot good looks and an
attractive personality, he was ne
man for the part and was altogether
delightful, lie was met with fre
quent applause, and while he held
the stage, he overshadowed tae poor
er points of the play, so the aud
ience managed to find some enjoy
ment. Altogether, the sell was taken
very good naturedly.
COltntX'S MIXSTRKI.S.
Greeted With Wis Applause From
Utile Audience Last Kvcning.
Big applause from a little audience
greeted Coburn's Greater Minstrels
at the Academy of Music list even
ing and the greater part of the ap
plause was well merited. It was a
clever perl ormance.
T:ie balcony was well filled on
both sides, but down stairs only a
handful of tiie regulars were pres
ent. However, this small crowd was
ii most enthusiastic one, and the ef
forts of the singers, dancers, come
dians, etc., were received with pro
longed applause in every case where
tae act was deserving ot the ap
plause. Owing to the tact that for
some inexplicable reason tue house
did not provide its patrons with pro
grams the names ot the artists are
not known to the writer, but it can
be said that t he soloists, yodler, quar
tet and comic songsters, were excep
tionally good and their work heartily
applauded.
The second part of the perform
ance, including the novelties and
spectacular acts, was on a par with
the first part, and all in all, it can be
said without any tear of contradic
tion, that Coburn's Greater Minstrels
pleased its Raleigh patrons and that
a much larger house was deserved.

Arrested for Ddinkeness Three
Times In One Day
Young White Man Proves His Taste
For Raleigh Whiskey (Jets Out
on Horn! and Gets Drunk Again
Before His Trial.
Three trips to the station house In
less than twenty-four hours was the
unique record made by D. H. Me-
Gee, white, of Rocky Mount, Thurs
day night and yesterday, eaeh trip
being the result of an overamount
of booze. This morning he was
fined $5 and coats, $2.75, in one case
and judgment suspended in the other
two.
On Thursday night about 9 o'clock,
hackman, while driving down Fay
ttevllle street, observed a man sitting
m a store window, swaying to and fro,
as if under some other than human
influence. The hackman drove up
close to the sidewalk to get a closer
view of the man, and as he did so
the man, who afterwards proved to be
Metlee. hailed him, scrambled In and
ordered him to drive ahead.
'Where must. I drive to, boss'.'" said
the negro driver.
"To the police station," answered
Mi'tiee, and that's where the driver
took him. Arriving at the corner of
the market, the hack came to a stop,
McGee got out and a policeman was
made acquainted with the man's In
tentions. When locked up, he explain
d Ills peculiar actions to the turnkey,
saying that he had some money on
him and if he remained on the rtreets
his condition somebody might rob
nun, while he knew his fine wouldn't
be over four or five dollars.
At four o clock next morning he was
about sober and was let out on a ten
dollar bond. When the time fur trial
ca.me, however, instead of being In
court McGee was In the police station
having been arrested again for over
intoxication. This time he was held
n the station house until the .middle
of the afternoon, when he was turned
out on the sn nie ten dollar bond.
Lo! and behold! about ti:'M) o'clock
that very same afternoon he was ai
rested on Wilmington street, full to
the lillt, and again he was brought to
the police station. This time he was
about out of funds and would have
emained in the lockup all night but
for a brother in the cause, who put up
cash bond for his appearance this
morning. ,
After settling with the court this
morning, he started toward the door,
md just as he crossed the threshold he
turned and Inquired, "What time docs
the next train leave here?"
"Where for?" he was asked.
"Anywhere!"
"12:30. going east," he was told.
"Well, I'm gone from here on that
train." was his parting remark, as he
adjusted his cranium cover and hustled
down the stairs.
Judge Stronach had another itlner
ant imbiber betore him today in the
person of James Snipes, a middle aged
white man, who told the court he hail
ed from Hamlet. This b'lng Ins first
offense in Raleigh, he was given the
usual cut rate of the costs, amounting
to $:i.rr.
"You're a good man. I see you have
a good heart in yer. Much oblige,"
were Ins remarks to the court after pay
ing his bill. ...

Mercurial Head PvdT I'sed liy
Mother Causes Heath of Baby.
John A. MacFarland, two years
old, of 2520 North Nape street, Phil
adelphia, died in the Mary Drexel
Home yesterday from poisoning re
sulting from his mother rubbing a
mercurial preparation on his head.
Mrs. MacFarland is frantic that her
baby should have died as a result of
an act of maternal kindness. The
officials of the home and Deputy
Coroner Braun have done what they
could to comfort her, however, In
forming her that death from mercu
rial poisoning through the pores of
the scalp is unusual.
"No blame lor the child's death is
attached to any one," the deputy cor
oner said today, after he had made
an Investigation.
"I had used the substance, on
John's head before," Mrs. McKarland
said. "It did not harm him then,
and I had no idea it would harm him
this time."
A physician in the Drexel Home
explained that the mercury in the
preparation used on the child's head
had worked its way throiigri tae
pores of the scalp,, entered me Mood,
and been carried to the kidneys.
There is set up an irritation that
caused death after the little fellow
had suffered terrlhlv.
It was a day after the mercurial
preparation had been used before ill
ness manifested itself. Then Mrs.
MacFarland carried her baby to the
home for treatment. The doctors
here say the preparation is used on
the heads of thousands of children,
II of whom are endangered New
