Mr. Scip- per’s reasons for resigning have not been made public, but probably will be stated at the proper time. No ac- tion has as yet been taken om .the matter, there being no quorum pres- ent at last night’s special session. Should Mr. Scipper’s resignatien be accepted, it is presumed a special election vill be held to choose & suc. cessor. There will be regular services at the Lutheran church tomorrow. Sunday school at 10 o’clock: Morn- ing service, 11 a. m.; evening service at 7:30. The supply pastor, Chas. J. Shealy will preach at both serv. ices and a cordial invitation is ex- tended to all. The Ecison Talking Pictures at the Auditoriumg last night were at- tended by a large and interested crowd, which was greatly pleascd with them. The effect of the human voices in connection with the pic- tures was almost equal to going to a first-class play with living actors. We predict that ere long all phote plays will be equipped with the talk- ing arrangement, which consists of a powerft! and specially constructed plionograph connected with the pic- turo racline in such menner that the pictures anc dialogue are per- fectly timed. The voices ol the pic- tured players were very distinct, and could be heard with ease all ever the large auditorium TO OUR FRIENDS AND FATRONS This is to acsure you that the Edisonia will NOT be clcsed longer than is necess-ry to move into larg- er quarters, where there will be room for all.
