Meeting of Fire Department.

AT a meeting of the fire depart
ment last Wednesday evening, Geo.
Meyer, assistant foreman was elect
ed chief, to fill the vacancy caused
by the resignation of S. s. Horner.
j. ID. Bruce was elected assistant
chief in place of Robt. Sears, who
has gone into the mining country; j.
+. Bowes was elected foreman to fill
the vacancy caused by the promotion
OF MIR. Bruce; VIM VanCox was
elected assistant foreman in place of
Mr. Meyer.
The department is to be congratu-
lated on Its excellent set of officers.
as they are men who will spare no
pains to further the interests of the
department and work for the COM
mon good.
The firemen have done some very
good practice work the past week, and
will soon have things about down to
perfection. What the department
now needs is the hearty cooperation
and encouragement of the people of
Weiser. Let us give the department
good word at every opportunity.

the "well'' scene with Mike O'Con-
nor and Joe Murphy being particu-
larly well acted. Mrs. R. G. Nc
Kinney, as Gypsy, the waif, was the
star of the evening This particu-
larly heavy part was sustained with
spirit and vivacity. Every shade of
feeling called for in the part was
given with perfect spontaneity. Now
a light hearted girl full of fun and
high spirits; now sympathetic wo-
man moved with the misfortunes of
those she loves and anxious to re-
move them AS the maiden scarce
conscious of her first love affair, and
as the indignant woman denouncing
duplicity, she was equally good. Her
different costumes were each more
pretty than the last, and her grace
and appearance but enhanced the
interest in her acting.
Lastly, we congratulate the man
ager of the company, w. H. O'Brien,
in that he had such good material
for his play and so we'll brought it
out, and hope he will spur them on
to further efforts in the same direc-
ton Whenever this company shows
again, either in this play or some
other, we are certain they will have a
crowded house. Mr.. OBrien work
ed hard to bring this play out, and
he was signally successful.

Public school Notes.


Miss Vale visited Miss Powelrs
department last Friday.
The boys of the high school for
some time past have been in training
for the annual field day sports, and
they have been doing some good work.
The literary programs rendered in
the several departments every Friday
afternoon are especially interesting.
Our citizens are cordially invited to
be present and enjoy the exercises.
1t does one very much good to visit
the school occasionally, and the stu
dents and teachers are pleased to
have our people call in and see what
they are doing.
A great literary spirit prevails in
the several departments this year A
good thing; may it be encouraged

The Trans Missouri committee of the

ets These excursions will be run as spe-
clal excursion trains, and about the same
dates return excursions will be run from
Denver, Colorado Springs, and Pueblo to
the Eastern points, the same rates pre-

desiring to do so to make tourist trips east

PLACER GOLD.
By the Home Dramatic Club.

The Home Dramatic Club perform
ed "Pacer Gold" at the opera house
on Saturday evening last, and have
amply proven that Weiser need not
be dependent on travelling companies
for their theatrical entertainment. In
quality and thoroughness the show
of Saturday last can be favorably
compared with the best that has been
put before our people in the past
Another agreeable surprise for the
audience was the musical program
rendered by the local orchestra, Mrs.
M. l.. Vial, and Messrs. Green, San
ders, and Carr. The last gentleman
1s newcomer in Weiser, but is fast
working to the front in musical cir
cles by reason of bis ability. I'm
donbtedly the selections given before
the curtain rose and during the en-
tertainment did much to hold the in
terest of the audience and bridge
over the weary waits between acts
in amateur performances. The over
ture from "Wang" was particularly
we'll played and highly appreciated.
We will not detail the story of the
play, since most OF our readers are
acquainted with it, but will proceed
at once to criticism of the perform
ers.
s. s. Horner, as Nathan Bardwell,
was in his best form, and even sur
prised his friends with the thorough
ness OF his impersonation. Amongst
the male characters, he, and J. Z.
Thompson, as Squire Crosby, had
the heavy parts, and well did they
carry them out-the homely, fun low
ing farmer, and the crafty, avaricious
land owner, R. G. Mckinney and
J. B. Coakley, as Irish farm labor
ers, were excellent foils to one an
other, their gags, local hits, and fun
ny predicaments being hugely enjoy
ed by everyone. The fortunes of A.
Il. Cordelle, as Ned Bardwell the
truant son, were closely followed, his
delineation of this difficult part, call
ing for neither tragedy nor humor,
can receive nothing but commenda-
ton. R. B. Foresmsn, as Quincy
Bardwell, had little to do, but as
Richard Blynn he availed himself of
the opportunity to show histrionic
ability of no mean order. Frank
Smith, as Charles Mayhem, the Sec
ond OF the mine swindlers, gave
clean-cut Interpretation Of the part
A. d. Atterbury took the part of the
sheriff, and undoubtedly has talents
sumcient for more important parts
After all, however, the lady per-
formers are entitled to the greatest
praise. Their makeup for the re-
spectlve parts was excellent and the
minuteness and finish of their
impersonations left nothing to be
desired. From the moment Maria
Bardwell-Mrs. j. B. Coakley-with
old-time grace took her place in the
Virginia Reel until the explanation in
the last act, she shared the audiences
interest in Nathan Bardwell's misfor-
tunes. Little Verna Coakley has
rare dramatic genius, such a clear
voice, distinct enunciation and nat
ural feeling in part are seldom
found in a girl Of her years. Mrs.
A. Hermany, the bride, was the CEN
ter OF interest in the first scene, the
part being well taken and dressed to
perfection. The character, Matilda,
the hired girl, taken by Mrs. A. G.
Cordelle, was excellently sustained, |

and a friend, who were at Canton, de-
cided to go quail hunting. Neither of
them knew anything about hunting,
but they borrowed a dog and sailed
forth. After they had been out little
while the dog started forward and pret-
ty soon stopped, with nose pointed for
ward and body Strengthened out. The
two hunters thought that the actions Of
the dog were remarkable. They stop
ped and commenced to discuss what
was the matter with the animal. Mr..
Campbell suggested that, perhaps, the
dog had been poisoned, and in that case
they would have to make the loss good
TO the owner. All the while the dog was
standing motionless, with eyes on the
ground ahead. Finally the two hunts
men went forward and just as they ap-
preached the dog, big quarry of quails
flew up. Both men were so surprised
that neither fired shot. Not until II
was explained to them did they fully
understand what they considered the
strange actions of the bird dog.

MACRUM MAINTAINS
TOTAL SECRECY.
Declines to Tell Why He Sud-

ARRIVES AT EAST LIVERPOOL
But Friends and Neighbors Get No More

News Democrat Leased Wire Service.l
East Liverpool, O., Feb. 6.-The cloak
which has enveloved Charles e. Ma
crum, eX-consul to Pretoria, for several
months, has not yet been discarded in
spite of the fact that he is once more
among old friends and neighbors in his
home town.
Macrum, wife and daughter Natelia
arrived here at 9:20. They were met by
a number of relatives and at once went
to the home OF the ex-consuls father,
N. G. Macrum, who, by the way, Is Sc
riously Ill. One of this associations
representatives asked Macrum If he
had anything to say. He replied, "Ab-
solutely nothing. When get ready to
say anything, 1t will be over my own
signature, and will explain ALL"
"Why did you leave Pretoria?" asked
| the reporter.
With a smile, he replied, II have alb
solutely nothing to say"
"Why did you stop at Washington
was asked
His stereotyped answer, II have moth
ing to say" was again repeated.
"Will you have any statement before
| you return to Washington"
"I do not know as to that" he said
| IT may and I may not"
Macrum then joined his relatives and
left the station. Mr.. Macrum is 80 years
old. However, were II not for the lines
about his eyes and on the face he would
easily pass for ten years younger
Newspaper men, one of whom is an ole
intimate friend of Macrum, tried tc
make an appointment to talk with hin
either this afternoon or evening. H'
said positively that he would see no one
today, as he intended TO visit wi IN his
parents. 'If decide to talk before go

TO SUCCEED HIMSELF
Makes the Announcement to News
Democrat Man and Informs Friends
HE WILL ENTER THE RACE
Aud VIII Doubtless Have For His Opponent
Ralph =. Am bier, who Is the Only
Candidate That Has Hereto
fore Announced His
Record.

Judge l. II. Taylor, the senior men,
Der of the common pleas bench in this
judicial district will be candidate for
denomination to succeed himself. Be-
fore going upon the bench at the Tues
day morning session of court, Judge
Taylor stated to a News Democrat rep
resentative that he was willing to serve
another term in his present position.
Il have not positively announced that
I would be a candidate, but have given
my friends assurance that / would be
and they are working upon that theo-
ry," said the judge. The people gem
orally and the members of the bar have
all been very kind to me, and while !
do not feel like forcing myself upon
them if they do not desire it, yet have
received so many kindnesses at their
hands and so many offers of hearty sup
port that feel if the people desire it l
will be candidate for another term"
For some weeks the members of the
bar in Stark and other counties in this
judicial district have been wondering
whether Judge Taylor was going to be
a candidate or not. There were sever
al who had judicial bees buzzing in their
hats and they were only waiting to see
what the judge would do, to know
whether or not to raise their political
lightning rods.
Judge Taylor has served about two
terms, and when he completes his pres
ent term will have been upon the bench
a little more than two terms. He was
first appointed to fill the unexpired term
of Judge Raley, and then at the next
election was chosen to fill out the un-
expired term and also was elected at
the same time for the long term. His
career as common pleas judge has been
very satisfactory to all concerned. He
Is clean-cut lawyer and just judge.
The judge says he has received many
expressions of loyal support from the
members Of the bar and the people at
large, and his friends are now at work,
and from this time on the race for the
nomination will be at least two-sided
and will be watched with interest. The
judges friends claim that he has Carroll
county solid to begin with and they
declare his strength in Stark will be of
such a fattering nature that the oppo-
stion will be distanced in the contest.
Judge TaylOrs announced candidacy
will probably cause the aspirants who
have been cycling the position lOngingly,
but who have not come out as candi-
dates to decide that they will not get
into the conflict this year. So the race
will probably be between Judge Taylor
and Attorney Ralph S. Amber, whose
candidacy has already been announced.
A report comes from Carroll county,
however, that may change this dual
contest to a three-COrnered fight for the
honor and that is that Hon. II. j. Eek
ley, eX-state senator from this district,
will come out and claim CAROLS right
to the honor. This may complicate
matters in that county and in the dis
trict.

WANTS MONEY.

The case of Collins Wilcox against
James Sterling and Frank Mobley has
been taken up from probate to common
pleas court on the motion of the at
torneys for the plaintiff. The petition
was filed by Attorney Werntz, of this
city, and r. L. Clifford, of Toledo. The
petition claims that in 1889 Sterling and
Mary Mobley were appointed admins
traitors of John Mobley. Out of the
estate it is claimed Sterling collected
$685. and Mary Mobley collected $455.
In 1895 Mary Mobley died and Frank
Mobley became her administrator and
got her funds. The claim is set up that
neither Sterling nor the o.hcr admin
istrator has ever been paid over any of
the inorey collected in the estate of
John Mobley. The probate court cr-
dered a distribution of the funds in 1893
but it is said none was ever made. Will
cox says his share OF the estate is Sal
and he wants it with interest from 1898.
