(iertrude Goghlan's company, ap-pearing in "The Sword of Justice," closed its Southern tour rather abrupt-ly here Friday and returned to Hobo-ken. Greensboro is being somewhat overworked in the theatrical line and the best attractions draw only moder-ate crowds. A tent lecture to which people pay five or ten cents to get in free draws better than legitimatedrama just now. If business gets much duller at the Grand the management will have to oiler green trading stamps with admission tickets. Mr. W. B. Stewart bought the Ed. Tucker property, on Bellevue street, last week, and Mr. Tucker has since bought what is known as the Barnes property, on East Bragg street, of Mr. John L. King.

Owing to the critical condition of the wounded men the police have made UO special ellort as yet to untangle the evidence in the case.
