crank on the diamond and the best hitters
of Colby were nonpulssed.
Only six little hits were taken off the

BY Local Talent.

Calumet people will have an opportuni-
ty to witness next week some OF the best
local talent on the stage, in both comedy
aud drama and at the same time assist
two objects worthy OF the support they
will receive from those attending. Next
Monday evening "Aunt Hannah's Qnil'-
ing Party" will be produced at the Red
Jacket Opera House for the benefit OF
Christ church, and on the following
Thursday evening "Imogene," or "The
Witch's Secret, will be produced for the
benefit of Sacred Heart church.
The former is a really funny farce, full
OF mifth from beginning to end. The
party, followed by supper, WIN Aunt
Hannah does herself proud by way OF en-
tertainmeDt, and the following good
time, combine in making an evening
which will be enjoyed as much by those
who attend as by the "dear auntie's own
visitors" There will also be some must
cal features introduced. The reserved
seat sale opened yerterday and a large
numDtr nave already been taken, indi-
eating that the party will be well attend
ed.
"lmogene" is on entirely different lines
the play has deep plot, but with enough
fun mixed in to keep the audience in good
humor. The success the young people
achieved last year when &c awiord's
Claim" was produced will assure good
attendance.

gives the following list OF the principal
items:

Of Jacob; piece of the nail of tho lit
