Methodist Christmas Tree.The children of the local Methodist

Sunday school were given a Christmastree and festival at Hotel ackson lastSaturday evening by the MethodistLadies' Society, and the affair was oneof the merriest and most successfulthat has taken place in this communityfor years. The large and spaciousdining-room of the hotel, in whichthe happy event was held, had beenbeautifully and appropriately deco-rabed for the occasion by Mrs. Geo.F. Linesetter, of Thibodaux, and in itscenter stood an immense Christmastree literally laden with toys, can-dies and other good things. Theceremonies were opened by Rev. C.D. Atkinson, of Plaquemine, whoeloquently addressed the children onthe significance of Christmas and itsmeaning to the Christian world,then followed prayers by Rev. E. P.Craddock, of the local Methodistchurch, after which the children sang"I Will Be a Sunbeam," music beingfurnished by Miss Odile Cook.

Theatrical Notes.Richmond P. H 9 bson, congress-

man-elect from Alabamia, delivered amasterly lecture at the Gondran thea-ter last Sunday night on the subject,"Peace on Earth," and it is to be re-gretted that the gifted speaker wasgreeted by so small an audience.

Monday night "The Denver Ex-press," a melo-drama of the mostlurid type, held the boards at the newplay-house and thrilled a fair-sizedaudience.

"The Way of the Maid" was pre-sented by local amateurs Thursdaynight for the benefit of the high school

gymnasium fund. It is salad hi theperformance was quite successful.

Donnelly & Hatfield's so-called"Magnificent Minstrels" appeared atthe Gondran theater last night andput 'up a performance that was de-cidedly poor from start to finish. Thejokes were old, the costumes dingyand the songs painful, and thecomedy (?) sketch which brought thetiresome show to a close was horse-play of the rankest character.

The popular Olympia Opera Com-pany will open a return engagementtomorrow afternoon, and it may betaken for granted that all the perform-ances will be witnessed by large audi-ences. The matinee bill will be "LaMascotte," with "Said Pasha" to-morrow night, "The Mikado" Mon-day night and "Olivette" Tuesdaynight.
