Junior Entertainment.

7
The entertainment given by the
high school pupils last Friday night
was well attended by highly appre
ciatiye audience.
Every selection on the program was
high-claSS and deserves the strongest
commentator, while the play ''Dutch
Jake" was simply immense. The cast
of characters was good and the inter
probation and rendition of the various
parts could scarcely have been improv-
ed upon. Roy Whelan as dutch
Jake" brought the house down every
time he appeared. Emory Hickey
proved that he can play the Williams
part, always difficult, to perfection.
The young ladies Misses Maud Dag
gett, Cora Hickey and Mary Ferguson,
performed unusually well, while
George Smith, as the old Virginian,
and Charlie Kelley, as the lover, sus-
tanned their parts in a manner that
left nothing to be desired. The fire
scene was we'll planned and Skillfully
executed, although it was not a part
of the play as printed. The juniors
conceived and put it on as an extra.
The solos were rendered by Misses
Allie Morse, Susie TownSley, Maude
Dagget and by Chas. Kelley, and reci-
tations by Misses Atchison, Hargis,
Mae Seavey and Lulu Hahnenkratt.
Everybody enjoyed the exercises,
but especially were the tabIeaus at
the close representing the shock of
battle, and the ministering angel, a
sister of charity, caring for the
wounded after the smoke of the bat
tie had cleared away. Great credit is
due the high school and the teachers
for successful and high class enter
tainment
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1901-04-16

Editor ostmaster-Royce seems to be
greatly troubled over the success of
the semi-weekly Herald, He is carry
ing on what he terms ''a useless and
senseless newspaper war" But it is
all on his side as yet, for in the Ian
guage of Paul Jones 1--WE have not yet
begun to fight. So long as the SUBJ
scriptions come pouring in as they
now are, we are satisfied to let him
advertise our business. His war is
certainly ssenselessn as he says,
though it is not altogether ''useless''
to us. It's an i'll wind indeed that blows
nobody good.

Like Velvet.

Our readers will be interested in
knowing there is one medicine sold by
the druggist, J. L. Mccormick, that
possesses unusual merit. Krause's
Little Liver Pills. They are small,
purely vegetable, gelatine coated pill,
acting directly on the liver and bile
without the irritation aud gripping
tie and natural in their action, as soft
as velvet to all tender surfaces and a
positive unfailing cure for billiouSnesS
