Independence Reporter: The gas
was decidedly shy this morning and
although the brick plant was promptly
shut off the pressure in town was not
increased on that account, indicating
that somewhere on the lines the mains
are frozen up. The company started
men out early this morning equipped
with wood alcohol to clean out the
pipes, and thought that they would
secure a full flow of gas before night.
The city schools are closed because
the school rooms could not be kept

Mr.. Gregg, an attorney from Pitts.
burg who came here recently to
press Capt. Waite's claim against the
city council, says that part of the cleo
trio railway mentioned in yesterdays
will be built. Work will
begin at Pittsburg and lines be built
out to some of the mining .owns
Whether the inter-urban lines men,
ton in the charter are ever built is a
very different proposition. When |
men get a charter they usually get one
that will cover multitude of plans.
At the opera house Thursday 1.-TWO
Married Men" performed in the pres
enco of one of the largest audiences
that ever packed the house. From the
foot lights to the top OF the back wall
people we're packed, expecting to see
a good show. At fifty cents each the
house represented close to $500. The |
show nearly looked like $500 it |
looked like s0OO.3O. No plot was Wis
Ible and few plotters. 1t was whoop |
and a hurrah, poor jokes, cracked |
voices and tiresome dialogues. One
man a hen-pecked old idiot of |
sporting proclivities, The other was
1 sport whose wife adored him but who |
vas indifferent to her. A few good |
'pecialties in some way got mixed up
n the program, but otherwise it was
iull throughout, Several familiar
aces were on the stage. There seems
% be a bunch of comedians" who
play here, go with the troupe to
Piqua, get ditched and come back with
he next troupe, play here and go to
Colony where they are ditched until
he next troupe comes along. A
change would be appreciated.
Something That Will do You Good.
