KATIE EMM FIT


 The field of Irish political and home life has long been prolific source for the pie lures of the dramatist, but of late years the quality of plays devoted to the subject has deteriorated, and the public has been given an inferior grade of dramatic work under the name of Irish drama. It is by getting away from this class of plays into higher field that Katie Emmett's 'Kil- iarney'' has won favor. The pretty idylic story told in its lines has been given a framework of charming Irish landscapes, 80 that.the real breath of the Emerald Isle pervades It's entire production. Seldom has play been given better mounting or stronger cast. Tbe scenery is by Willard Schaffer, who has copied with loving hand some of the best of the Irish landscapes, ln- cluding views of the lower lake of Killar- ney, the old Brickeen bridge, the Kenmare road, Muckross abbey, the old Manor house, the Middle lake and the Devils s pool. At the latter thrilling leap for life Is made across the chasm by the heroine, forming the climax to one of the acts. There is not much som mberness In the play, however, though there is a great deal of villainy to be overcome ond circumvented, I, just as there is in real life.
 lrs Miss Elm melt, who was announced by | Elwyn A. Barron, the brilliant critic of the Chica go Inter Ocean, the "sweet col leen indeed,h appears as the heroine, and has opportunity during two acts 10 play the laundering gossoon also, thus bringing into evidence her powers as an lmperson- . ator of boys' parts. Many of her admirers think Miss Emmett at her best when clad in the trousers of youth, and by women generally she is regarded as quite the sweetest that ever wore that neither gar- ment. Miss Emmett's songs and dances, and she comes with number of new ones, infuse life and brightness into several of the scenes. She is assisted in the task of enivening the action by several members of her company, notably by Robert Sheri- dan, her leading man, who is the possessor Of a pleasing baritone voice, and who sings both sentimental ballads and roliicking ditties. Little Mabel Taliaferro, wee mite of fhum6nity, only 6 years old, stands next to Miss Emmett herself, however, as an entertainer in this line. The entire com pany is an excellent one, for Miss Emmett is herself the packer of her tour this sea- son, and is putting into practice her theory that no star can afford to try to shine by making the lights around her dim. Miss Emmett's annual visit to this city will be made next Monday night, when she will

Obituary.

Ethel Myrl Bell. died at the home of
her parents near Coates, January 9th,
aged years and IL months. Her death
was the result of fall while climbing
on some machinery in the yard Decem-
Der 18th. She complained but little for
some days and no particular anxiety
was felt until New Years day when
physician was called. A day or so
later she began to show signs of cere-
bral pressure and council was held.
DR.. Franklin of Pratt, was telegraph
for but the eXudedation was 1.-THE base
of the brain and but little hopes were
entertained. Every effort was used to
relieve the suffering but the dread mes
senger came and quietly bore her spirit
away, leaving two brother, one six
years of age and the other baby and
fond parents to mourn her loss. She
was buried in Coates cemetery Sabbath
day, the funeral being conducted from
tie family residence by Rev. Dean of
the Nj. E. church. The parents have
the sympathy of the community in
their loss. Little Ethel was a pleasant
and innocent child, loved by everyone
and her remembrance is as shower of
fragrant blessings. May He who gives
and takes away enable us to say: Thy
will be done.'' A FRIEND.
CARD OF THANKS.
We desire to thank the many kind
friends who rendered us such valuable
assistance during our late trouble.

Obituary.

From the Hancock County nIj Journal.
Mr.. John ID. Stevens died at his HON,
in this city Wednesday morning abou
2o'clock. He was taken suddenly il
on Saturday afternoon and when a ply
stefan called 1t was found that he coult
live but short time. He had had al
attack OF rheumatism or years agt
and it is thought that his present trou
BILE is partly a sequel of that together
with other difficulties. On Saturda,
evening he had very violent hemor
rhage from the bowels which occurred
8 or times, the result was to reduce
his strength that in the crippled condi.
ton of the heart he was unable to rally
and sank to rest as related. He was
conscious to the last and fally realized
from the start that his condition was
hopeless.
John ID. Stevens was the oldest child
Of Joseph and Elmira Stevens nee Dee.
lie first saw the light at Carrolton, H.,
February Sth, 1926. His education was
gained chiefly by his ASSOCIATION with
men IN the affairs OF life as his school
advantages were only those of all the
early settlers, limited to elementary
branches. His sterling integrity and
good common sense supplied the place
of book learning so well that In every
position to which he was called by his
countrymen he was at all times fully
competent to discharge It's duties.
He lost his father when he was twen-
ty years of age when he began his life's
business course which led him to Jack
son county, Iowa, in 1916; to New Or
leans with load of horses in 1S47 back
to Illinois the next spring; to Callfor-
MIA, overland in the spring of 1850 where
he mined and rustled for the next five
years; then to Texas and after five or
six months stay, home again via the
Gulf to New Orleans. This was in De =,
cember, 1855. The next year was spent
about Fit. Riley, Kansas With the ex-
ception of six months trip to Pixies
Peak in 1860, he has ever since made
Hancock county his home. One his
2lst birthday he was united in marriage
with Miss Julia A. fowler, of Indiana,
who with the three daughters that
were born to them survive.
He was elected to various offices of
possibility. and trust, amongst
which was sheriff OF Hancock county in
1870 and 1872; to the general assembly,
and postmaster of Carthage from 1889.
Mr.. Stevens was consistent democrat
and being man of very decided opin-
ions was radical in everything. He
was as loyal to his convictions as any
man could well be and while he was a
strict party man yet it is believed that
no party fence was ever high enough to
hold him if it required a compromise
of his convictions. Scrupulously hon.
est and just in all his dealings, warm
and steadfast in his friendship and
open and manly in his enmities. No
man of his hot impulsive temper was
ever anything else than what John l..
Stevens was, an honest man, gener-
Gus friend an ardent enemy. lie had
the respect of all who knew him, friend
and enemy, alike. The family are Sc.
cure in the sympathy of the whole COM

and the doctor feels like working awhile

The efforts to show illegal allow
ances in the district clerks and discrep-
ancies in other Offices where there is a
| populist incumbent is far-fetched. The
populists have no apology to offer for
their officers, some of whom many re-
publicans have admitted have never
been excelled. When man or news.
paper makes charges against the popu.
list officials in the court honse they are
talking straight through the top of their
hats.
AT the FIRST of the of the month we
seriously debated whether or not to
publish Hicks predictions for January.
We are now complimenting ourselves,
for the austere weather prognosticator
has not even accidentally struck the
mark yet. Generally when a man
prophesies certain kind of weather
for each alternate day he will not miss
1t over "a hours on certain occasions:
but Hicks and his January forecasts
have proven an exception.
| There seems to be considerable suf-
fering from hunger in the Strip. Five
petitions are being circulated in county
NJ calling upon the governor and ma.
tional authority for aid to the desti
tute. Some families are compelled ia
subsist on bread and water, and one j,
reported to be so entirely devoid of sub
sistence as to be living on acorns. This
is in the '.black jacks" The aid asked
for is apparently bad y needed. and il
