Left Home.
Miss Daisy Lingle, the 17 - year
old daughter of Mr. A. Lingle,
I who so mysteriously disappeared
from Salisbury last Friday night
a week ago, has voluntarially re
turned to the city.
Sheriff Julian had information
yesterday that Miss Lingle was
visiting at her kinsman's, Mr.
Henderson A. Fisher, and had
Mr. J. Frank Miller to eo after
her. After learning the serious
nature of the charges afloat she
decided to come to Salisbury and
Amlain whv she " left ' home and
where she has been since her de-
parturefrom Mr. James Ludwig s
rom ner statement it appears
fhat Knth f r TT T, Rarrfttfc and
herself have " been wronged and
k4- w Kor rt'ron ftVir.
Miss Lingle made a straightfor
5 1 J
ward statement this morning: m
which she said: 5
"I have not seen Mr. Barrett
hnt once since l ief t my fathers
home week before last. Mr.
Rrrett has ft wavs treated me
as a srentreman should a lady and
I have no complaint to make
against him. When I left bahs
bury and it was stated that I had
eloped with him, I was visiting
schoolmates. I left home because
my father mistreated me. 1 have
not decided wbethed or not I will
go back home.'?
The statement of his daughter
leaves Mr. Lingle in a very em
barrassing position with reference
to the statements given out by
him. ,
Mr. Barrett, it appears
Miss Lingle' 8 statement, has
entirely blameless in the
and has been engaged
w
usual
work all the grille.

A BitlLLIAIIT SUCCESS.
THE KIRMESS PRESENTED
, CROWDED HOUSE.
TO A
xne aeaium oi tne laDieauz a a
tare of the Evening. A Splendid
Success Scored.
. The first night's presentation of
the Kirn ss exceeded in profit
the expec; ttions of its promoters,
and in pleasure ant' entertainment
the hopes of its patrons. There
has neer been anything of purely
a spectacular . ature,- presented to
a Salisbury audience that can ap
proach the performance of last
night. It was perfect in detail,
beautiful in execution and gener
ously applaude in every phase.
The perfectior of ar m costuming,
the skillful , arrangement of the
poses,; marches and dances, and
the splendid magnificence of the
productions as a whole, was due
to the direction, discrimination and
artistic skill of Prof. James Wren,
who for years has delighted Sa" -burians
with artistic creatio
without limit; all of which he ex
ceeded and eclipsed h:jiself in tht
Kirmess. It was a show of beauty,
grace and artistic endeavor, such
as has never been seen in thfs
town; and all who participated
should congratulate themselves
upon being a party to the giving
of such genuine"" pleasure to the
audience. The whole program
from start to finish was executed
without delay. The more strik
ing pictures and those which ap
plied most to the audience, were
the formation of the Southern
Cross, the Iudian dance and tab
leaux of Pocahontas and Capt,
John Smith, the sweet, coy, grace
ful and pretty little Japanese, with
their catchy .song; the gypsy
dance, in which was witnessed a
degree of artistic dancing by some
who participated that would have
done credit to Carmencita or

THE BOOTHS OPEN.
Attention uaiied to Booths in the
Opera House.
We are asked to announce that
the Kirmess is open in the morn
ings from 10 a. m. to 1 p. m. Ad
mission free. This is for the ben
efit of those who desire to visit the
booths and cannot do so in the
evening. Ihe managers also wish
the public to understand that al:
thotigh sales will not take place
during. the time 'occupied by the
dances, the saleswomen will be in
attendance and the doors will be
open at 7 p. m. for those who
would like to come early in order
to make purchases. These sales
will, also, go on after conclusion
of the dances, and refreshments
are offered in the cafe throughout
the evening. The managers fear
that the public has not grasped
the idea of the Kirmess. It is
primarily, a festival on the carni
val order, and not a simply a
heatrical performance. The peo
ple are, therefore, begrged to come
and make a social occasion of it,
enjoying themselves while help
ing to build the monument to
Kowan's soldiers. In the evening
he price of admission is 50 cents.
Children 25 cents. Dances begin
at 8:30. -
