C. Ch4rt.etox, S. June 29. A most peculiar state of affairs exists in Charleston today. For 20 days or more the liquor and grocery houses have been Belling out their stocks of wines and liquors at reduced prices to get rid of them before July 1st, when the state enters into a monopoly of the liquor business.

It is settled that there is to be no state dispensary for tho sale of liquor iu Charleston and people have, therefore, been preparing for the new state of thing. Many thousands of bottles ami-cask of wine have been sold. So great has been the demand that the railways and steamships have been hired to trau0ort liquors to the city, the present stock having been long ago exhausted and when the Evans law goes into operation at midnight.on June SO, there will be few homes in Charles ton that aro not provided with at least six months supply ot liquor.

FALL OF TWO CENTS. BIG SLUMP IN THE WHEAT. PRICE OF News cf India's Increased Production the Canse of the Drop in Price. Chicago, June A slump of over two cents a bushel in the price of wheat occurred to-day before the trading had beeu in progress an hour. The carrying charges for CO days are the lfiost astonishing charges ever known, six cents a.

bushel or about 40 per cent, per annum. The spread was four ana three-eights cents a bushel a few days ago, when there was some let up in the money stringency. To-day's break in prices was chiefly at tribuled to surprising news from India followinsr the silver sensation from that country. The surprise was a state ruont credited to Beerboehm saying that five districts ot India raise 000 bushels more wheat than last year AT THE ACADEMY. "Power of Money" and Spanish Stu' dents Last Night.

Albert II. Dakin's Company of play ers appeared at the, Academy last evening in "Power of Money." The audience was small, much smaller than the merits of the performance deserved. The efforts of the people on the sfage were appreciated, however, and at times the auditors grew quite enthusiastic. "Power of Money" is a comedy drama that contains many commendable though it is rather loosely constructed. It is considerably better than the average play of its kind and gives opportunity for some very pretty pieces of acting.

It is by the late H. C. De Mille, America's Lest playwrights. The leading part is taken by Miss Marguerite Yates, who, though pcarcely more than a mere slip of a girl, is an exceedingly Clever little actress, and she speedily won the hearts and sympathies of her audience, and left a very favorable impression. She gives great promise of the future.

Jack Ryer-son and Jasper Carter, the two leading male characters are well taken by Walter F. Birch and R. Wilkins respectively. Wilkins'in his conception otT the fniooth, calculating villain, is particularly good; and as an excellent foil to him, Miss Anita Vernon does well the part of Lizzetta Graham. A star feature of the performance is the appearance of four of the original Spauish students, brought from Spain Eeveral years ago by Henry E.

Abbey. Their soft string music is simply: exquisite. Senor Olegueuaga also does a grotesque tambourine dance that is exceedingly novel and clever. Josie Robinson Company. To-night the Josie Robinson Co.

The management intends to cater to the tastes of the theater-going ppopte of this city, and will make every effort to give peifomances that will moet with the approval of all. Mies Robinson is a well-Riiown and favorite star and should be remembered by the people of Akron, she having played here for 14 weeks in theSummer of '86.

178a IT IS BOW THOUGHT TO HAVE PASSED. Cases And Some Deatas But tne Disease i Certainly Abating in Enrops. Washington, June 29. The reappearance of cholera in Europe does not cause any alarm among Treasury offi cials. Reports are daily received from United States consuls and other agents abroad and they concur that the climatic conditions that have so far ob tamed in Europe are not conducive to the spread of cholera there.

There have been sporadic' cases of cholera and some deaths from it, but the disease has not spread as it did last 3'ear and thev express the opinion that it will not reach this country. Assistant Socretarv Curtis of the Treasury Department, who has general supervision over the marine hospital service of the treasury, coin rules with this view as expressed by foreign agents, but still maintains and will continue to maintain the closest scrutiny over immigrants and others coming- from' cholera infected conn tries, ine system of inspection cn both of the Atlantic is be lieved to be as nearly perfect as can be made.

"THE TEMPLE OF FAME." It Was Builded at tho First 13. Church Last Night. An Exercise That Cor.t.ained Many Very Lessons A XJoublo Wedding; To-nigiit-Otlier Events. One of the finest church aflairs of the year was the Temple of Fame presented by the Epworth League of the First M. E.

Church last evening. The exercises is a novel one and proved peculiarly enjoyable to the fairly good crowd present. Although a long programme it possessed many features that eradicate tiresomeness and it was entertaining throughout. The idea or plan of the exercise is itself a happy one and it is admirably developed all through to the impressive and suggest-tive climax. The croir stand was beautifully decorated with robes and rugs harmoniously arranged with a throne in the center.

The Goddess of Fame, which character was excellently represented by Mies Hannah Watt, appeared first, attended by two little boys, and in a brief address summoned before her the women who have becomu famous iu the world's history in any line. She desired to hear from each her claims for a special recognition and tbe chosen one was to be crowned Queen of Fame. Well, they Some evidently in carriages, some afoot, some in band wagons and soma in angel's chariots while a few must have dropped down from above. Everybody came. Beauties, vica versas, all famed for something.

In some cases it wasn't much, merely the wife of some man, or some such distinction, but they were after that crown of gi ens and Brass. The various characters represented were charmingly assumed by the young ladies. There were tiiose famed in art, those known in literature', some who gained distinction in Government af fairs and those celebrated in patriotism, chanty, devotion to hit inanity, and other spheres both -feminine and masculine in their natures. The partict- pants'Were all eleaantiy costumed, ap propriateness and suggesliveneas being the main considerations even to the sacrifice in some cases of beauty. Tho characters were presented by Heralds, E.
