de hecho y de derecho carece este

'.HiCk'ry Farm

"Hick'ry Farm" which will be
presented by that sterling come
dian, Louis Oliver, with most
adequate support, at the opera
house tonight, was written for
this star three years ago, and
originally presented by him in
New York City. where it created
a furore, being a foreranner OF
all those so-called "'rural' plays
that have been presented with
more or less success ever since.
The principal character is that
of a down east Yankee farmer,
and Lewis Oliver, than whom
the stage has no better expo
nent of this style of character,
is a whole entertainment in him
self. "He brings the smile that
hides a tear" and in the next
breath has you yelling with
laughter at his quaint humor.
In conjunction with the play are
given a series OF high-class
vaudeville turns, including New
berry and Payne i'll their dare
devil cycle whirl. This cycle
whirl riding has been the sensa-
tional feature at all the big
vaudeville houses throughout
the east, and will be seen for the
first time in Roswell.
Verify, Roswell theatre goers
have a treat in store for them
tonight.

DanVerS, Mass, Dec. THE daring
burglars who recently operated in Mer-

Tapleyvile section of Danvers, early
today, but beyond firing Il dozen shots
which hit nobody they committed nc
serious depreciation. and were obliged
to make a hurried escape without
carrying off anything of value
At $50, Charles Woodman, q florist
who lives near the store building
owned by David S. Brown. was awak-
ened by the barking Of Mr.. Browns
dog and he and his brother Edward
started on tour of investigation.

to rotirc. Further along two men. who
