The Passion Play

Next Thursday evening August,
90 at Browns Hall there will be a
representation of the celebrated
passion Play" as presented every
ten years at Oberammergau, Bavaria
this now widely famed performance
depicts scenes and incidents in the
life of Christ. 1t is reverently and
devoutly given and it is claimed
exerts wholesome religious in
fluence.
Tbe projectoscope by means of
which the play is reproduced in
pictures is one of the most wonder
full of Edisons inventions, superior
to the cinematograph Each and
every picture is graphic and realistic
and the impression of reality Is
heightened by the fact that the fig
ures move. A descriptive lecture
enables a quick comprehension of
the story and is instructive and edu-
cational withal.
The opportunity to witness the
"Passion Play" without visiting
Europe must be regarded as excep.
tional and no doubt will be appre
ciated by many people of Milford
and vicinity. The entertainment is
for the benefit of the Church of the
Good Shepherd. Tickets at moder-
ate prices are on sale in advance snd
may also be purchased at the door
on Thursday evening.

The st. John Recital.

A large and appreciative audience
greeted Miss Lallah st. John and her
assistants in her violin recitals Tues
day evening. Her playing was very
fine and delighted her hearers who
evinced the pleasure they derived by
insisting on encores to which she re-
sponded, The singing throughout
was excellent, and Mrs st John,
the Misses Gumaer and Taylor and
Mr. Crissman, fully maintained the
high reputation they deservedly
bear as vocalists. Mr.. Dolph was
afflicted with a cold and did not
sing. Butafter all Aunt Fan with her
fiddle would have touched a tender
spot with some whose musical sus-
capabilities are of the old fashioned
kind.

one of Sells Bros circus rings. After

got it. l. expected to see him get run

FOOT RACES.
The days entertainment closed with
foot races between an Indian and a
white man. The Indian was stripped of
all his clothing except a breech cloth;
he was as fine a specimen of physical
manhood as you would see in many a
day. The muscles Of his limbs stood out
like whipcords. The white man had
nothing on but his shirt, drawers and
stockings. The first race was won by
the Indian. The Indians won some $50
or SIS on that race, and felt very highly
elated. After resting half an hour they
got up another foot race between the
Indian and the white man. The Indians
bet all the money they had on their
champion, and the white people bet on
theirs. The white man put on his shoes
for this race, and by the third jump he
was ahead Of the Indian, and came in
to the scratch some 10 feet ahead of
him. You never saw a more disap-
pointed set than those Indians were.
They never said a word, but got on
their ponies and started away. That
ended the days sport.
THE QUEENS BALL.
That evening at s o'clock the queen
Of the fair and her two maids of honor
opened up a ball, which was called the
queens ball. I was told by the fiddler
that the dancing was kept UP until s
o'clock next morning.
That ended my visit to the San Juan
fair. 1t would have been a credit to
many Of the counties back in Ohio.
The business men all worked together
In harmony to make the fair a success.
Yours respectfully,
THE OLD CAPTAIN.
