VIM Appear monday Night.

The Tittell Sisters appeared at the
Reed last night in "Drifted Apart
The house was fairly well filled by an
enthusiastic and appreciative audience
who were completely captivated and
carried away by the splendid acting of
every member of the company. From
the most fastidious and critical of Salem's
theater goers to the small boy up in the
gallery could be heard nothing but words
of commendation and praise for the ex-
cellent performance. Miss Charlotte
Tittell in her role of the much-married
society woman cannot be excelled, while
her sister, Miss Essie, in her role of
Mrs. Helen Van Buren, -is second to no
actress that has ever appeared in the
city. Should the T1tteIl Sisters put
''Drifted Apart on the boards of the
Reed again the spacious hall would not
hold one-half of the applicants for ad-
mission.
The company will produce ''Drifted

Wieberg were attending the services at
the Salvation Army barracks at the time,
and in consequence of their being away
that contents of the building, being
everything they owned, were destroyed.
The loss as far as the building was con-
cerned is not to exceed 800, but for the
Wiebergs the loss Is serious because all
their clothing and everything else went.
They lost all any one can lose-all they
had. Columbia Hose and Jackson En-
gine Co.. united their hose and got a
stream of water on the burning building
but as the building was small, and in an
out of the way place, it was about done
for when the boys reached it.

Social of Fern Lodge. Degree of Honor.

"Social by name, but not by nature"
certainly could not be applied to the
social given by the gentlemen members
of D. of II. lodge at Fraternity hall, last
Wednesday night. After the transaction
of the usual order of business, the doors
of the hall were thrown open to about
one hundred guests. The committee
had announced their arrangements for
the evening something like this: Sing
ing and literary exercises, with refresh
ments, whist and whirling. The first
number on the program was an instru-
mental solo by Mrs. Eshelman. Then
the audience were very pleasantly told
by Mr.. D. G. Herrin, in an original
essay. the various meanings of the word
was listened to in the silence that de-
notes appreciation. Mrs. Herrin next
recited poem by Sam Simpson, and the
beauties of our state acquired additional
interest by her happy manner of relating
them. The quartet composed of Messrs.
Crandall, johnson, Doane and Magee
responded 10 an enthusiastic encore, one

until the opening notes of the second
number were heard. Miss Jennie Rus

most excellent manner "The Green

representation was SO realistic that the
listeners could see as well as hear the
sorry plight in which the justice and his
wife were placed. The committee had
gotten along finely until this moment,
now they step aside, and to the ladies

of fun seemed to prevail, and when the
tables were cleared, merry crowd were
clamoring for the ''whirling" to COM

those who did not dance, and surely
everybody had a good time. 1t was
unanimously voted 'tthe social of the
season." and the gentlemen may expect
to arrange all such affairs in the future.

The situation remains unchanged at
Salem. Dolph holds the solid vote of
those who stuck to the caucus, while the
boilers are still scattering their votes but
steadily drifting towards George n.

and who may eventually get there if old
age does not carry him off before the
deadlock is broken. The bolters are not
showing good judgment in the selection

after which, we learn, contrary to the
advice of the machinst, he pushed out

he had made to hold it, This failed to
