Commissioners Run Against Snag in rs
tablishing n Free Ferry.
Speaking OF the petition for free
ferry at Beverly while the bridge is
being repaired, the Dispatch says:
The circumstances which confront
the commissioners in this matter are
very unusual and of peculiar nature.
Mr.. Brooks Dodge, who with Mr.. Kee-
yer is operating the ferry at present,
claims that his family possesses "the
ferry landing" right at this place. His
proposition to the commissioners was
that he would maintain suita BILE ferry
at this place for $1,000 per day or in
case of anyone else operating the ferry
would charge s2- SO for the privilege of
landing. Both of these propositions
were considered by the commissioners
as very unreasonable.
Whatever action the commissioners
take in the matter the public may rest
assured that their interests will be
carefully looked after; and that If a
free ferry can be established at a
reasonable price we will be afforded
one. We are informed by the commits
siouers that the draw will be replaced
within ninety days.

penitentiary is visiting his family at
Beverly, this county. Mr.. Griggs has
anticipated the sentiments of the
American people which he has incor-
porated in a patriotic song entitled
Cuba Shall be Free" The wording of
the song is very expressive and the
musical composition is the equal of
Mr.. Griggs' former compositions, promi-
nent among which is the song The
Flag of Our Union" which created
quite a sensation among the music
loving class.

Ohio Man Gets "A Years Sentence for q
Technical Defalcntion.

Technical Defalcntion.
The warden of the Ohio penften-
tiary at Columbus was astonisbed to
find a man at his door recently who oar
ried in his hand his commitment papers
ordering a years Imprisonment, re-
ports the New York World. This was
the first time he had ever seen pris-
oner unaccompanied by an officer vol
unfairly come and say he was ready to
begin his term. The man was 1ngle w.
Rush, aged Is, born and raised in Logan
county, O.
By hard work and strict economy
he and his faithful wife, assisted
by the oldest CT their eight chill
dren. had gathered together money,
lands, cattle, utensils and the like
worth $4,000. He had become a
man of standing in the community and
for several years had served as treasur-
err of Stokes township. BY reason of
some investments he made which did
not realize as quickly as had been ex-
pected Rush vas called upon by the
board of education to turn over Si,700
of school funds. He could not do it, so
he and his wife. who was not on his
bond nor in any way liable. turned over
| all their possessions to his bondsmen to
protect them in raising the sum de-
| lnanded. The shortage became known
before the money could be raised and
the public clamor was only satisfied by
Rush's indictment by the grand jury
upon charge of defalcation. He made
no defense. While the crime was only
technical he could not avoid punish
nent. 1t was said by members of the
grand Jury and Judge Duncan, who SEN
fenced Rush to a year in the peniten-
tiary, that II was one of the saddest du-
ties they ever had to perform.

Academy of Music.

One OF the metropolitan newspapers
made picture of the great diving scene
In The White Heather playing at the
Academy OF Music, New York City. and
used it to illustrate the manner in which
the divers work around the wreck of the
shattered and submerged cruiser Maine.
in Havana Harbor. The public, taking
its cue from the illustration, has been
crowding the Academy to get n complete
idea OF what submarine wreck looks
like and how the divers enter and ex-
plore it. The scene in the melodrama
is one of the most remarkable things of
its kind ever placed on the stage. 1t
gives the impression of vast slice of the
ocean raising straight up from the foot
lights and giving full view of all there is
in the water and under it. A sunken
wreck is there and the immense flora of
the subaqueous regions together with the
tremendous fish that people the great
waters OF the earth. First one diver and
then second is seen descending through
the water. They reach the bottom and
enter the wreck, each with the sauEe mis-.
sion, the securing of certain valuable
payers. They represent rival factions,
ased when they emerge from the wreck
begin desperate battle for che prize.
They are armed with knives and each
triestocut the others life line. The scene
rs sublime and the dramaticincdent Of
the fight makes it positively thrilling.
The Acadeaay audiences go crazy over
lit. Widest excitement follows it, aud
the scene has been the sensation of the
theatrical season. <'The White Heather
is the greatest meloGramatic success the
Academy has ever had.

Dress Rehearsal,

A dress rehearsal of the plays in prep
aration by the HeImetta Amateur Dra-
matte Association was given in Citizens
Hall, Helmetta. on Thursday evening OF
last week. About forty friends were
present to criticize and encourage the
players, but it is pleasant TO state that
there was very little to find fault with
and a great deal to commend. The
comedy "A Slight Mistake" had one or
two breaks at the start, but wound up in
fine style. In the drama the players had
warmed to their work and gave their
lines and acted like old timers. Some of
thu players are developing splendidly
and those who attend will be surprised
at the talent shown.
The stage and its settings are excellent
and though small are equal to those in
much larger towns. A pleasing novelty
is the "Snow Scene," and those who
attend the entertainment will be delight
Ell with it. The plays are to be given
Tuesday evening, April 18th, and the
tickets are nearly all sold. People who
want reserved seats should apply at
once at the store of the G. w. Helmes
Co.. Heimetta. Prices, 80 cents, and
general admission 25 cents.
