stalked into J. ]. Marsh's residence in
West Decorah Thursday night, as il
they owned the place, and without
warning of their coming. For a mo-
ment ]. J. was in doubt whether to
call the police or not, but soon realized
that it was only party of friends who
had come to help him celebrate his
END birthday anniversary. The
evening was spent at cards and other
amusements, dainty refreshments were
served by Mrs. Marsh, and the entire
company expressed themselves as
having thoroughly enjoyed the oc
casion. During the evening Mr.

author who bad been advertised to aD-
pear here Friday night in ..Tifs sFoyar
Boxn was dead. He died at Calves
ton, Texas, Monday from acute gas
tritis. However, the fact is that Mr..

pany for several nights. His under
study has been taking his part and
has received the highest encomniums
from the press at every place, they be-
lieving him to be Coghlan. He is a
great actor, and will readily occupy
the high place earned by Mr.. Cogh-
Ian. The following telegram received
by Mr.. Bear yesterday explains itself:
Davenport, Iowa, Nov. %, '99.
Mgr. Opera House, 3:07 pm.
DecOrah, Iowa.

not want wrong impression convey
ed to our people. They tell us to in
form any who have purchased tickets
and desire it, that they may receive
their money back at the reserved seat

it the greatest show that ever came TO

regret it.
