He paid a high tribute to the late

"The Bonnie Brier Bushn

When j. ii. Stoddart made his first local an.
pearancc in "The Bonnie Brier Bush' some two
months ago his performance was witnessed by
only comfortably filled houses. His return Ell.
gagement on Saturday last was one OF the most
successful played by him this season. At both
performances the theater was filled to overflow
ing and many were turned away because OF the
inability of the management to furnish more
seats
Mr. Stoddart repeated his mastery nterpreta-
tion of the role of Lachlan Campbell and the
applause at the end of the great scene in the
second act necesstated the raising of the curtain
four times at the night performance. The effect
OF Mr.. Stoddarts art upon the audience was
manifested on every side. The profound sorrow
with which his Whole being seems to be shaken
after he drives his daughter from home and real
ICES his utter loneliness found responsive chord
in the hearts of nearly every one in the vast
audiences and it is safe to venture the assertion
That eight out OF every ten persons present were
crying softly. 1t was a spectacle suci as is sell
dom seen in theater.
The company was almost precisely the same as
the one seen here earlier in the sason. Reuben
Fox came in for share of applause second only
to that accorded Mr.. Stoddart. His characteriza-
tion of the inimitable Archibald McKittrick is
bound to live long in the memory OF every ore
who witnessed it. Augustine Duncan as Tam
mas Mitchell, with his oftrepeaed query Of
"Annie will you ha me?" provoked much
laughter and the singing OF the quartcttc Of field
aborers was sweet could he wished for.
1t must surely be the wish OF all OF Mr.. Stod-
darts local admirers that he will give up his
idea of retiring from the stage at the end of
this season and continue for one more year at
least to uphold the best traditions of the Eng.
lish speaking stage. As has been said of another
actor ''as compared with the majority Of modern
stars he ranks as a planet"

Capturing Truman Murderer.
Special to Times Republican.
Muscatine, Sept. 18.-There Is
probability that the reward for the
capture and conviction Of Dan Will
iams the alleged murderer of Jesse and
Martha Tuman. will be raised TO the
sum OF $1,000. In fact, the probability
lis very strong and an effort is-to be
made in that direction. Jesse Tuman
had many friends in the neighborhood
OF the locality in which he made his
home. These neighbors were highly
incensed at the atrocious crime, and
are willing to go down inStheir pockets
to aid in the capture of fhe men who
would commit such terrible deed.
The county attorney, Ed p. Ingham.
states that daily he is in receipt of let
tiers asking as to the reward offered
and some OF the circumstances attend
ing the terrible crime that shocked the
minds Of the people Of this community.
These letters are from detectives and
others, who are interested in the case,
and are thinking OF beginning to work
1t up, and II the reward should be
raised to $1,000, more would go to
work, on account Of the greater incen-
tive. A large number of men in this
country make their living ferreting out
just such mysteries as this and many
times they are successful in bringing
the guilty to justice. So 1t might be in
this case. In case Williams Is the
guilty man, and there is every evidence
to believe he is. his capture might
possibly take place. If enough detec-
tives of ability and experience were
placed on his trail.
