THE WEIDEMANN COMPANY.
"Octaroon" Was Ably Presented
'NIy Uncle From New York" To-



night.
The Weidemanns presented the
"Octoroon" before a crowded house
at the Frazer last evening. The com
pany is exceptionally strong for a rep
ertoire troupe and the performance
last night was pleasing. The play
while old, is always interesting and
awakes a pathos where the beautiful
octoroon tells of the gulf that separ-
ates her from her white lover.
Instead of the "Old Lime Kiln" as
has been previously announced, the
bill tonight will be three-act come
dy entitled my Uncle From New
York"
The Weidemanns carry number
of specially acts and the performance
tonight will abound with vaudeville
sketches.

Dispatches sent from Columbus say
that there is much excitement among
many of the recently elected assessors
throughout the state who have failed
under the new law to file their bonds
within ten days after the election Au-
ditor of State Guiibert said last night
that in the event this was not done the
assessor is disqualified and his Office is
declared vacant by virtue of recently
enacted statute. 1t is in the power of
the County Auditor to select the sue
cessors- All the assessors elected in
Lake township filed bonds within the
ten days, stated Assistant Auditor Nc
Laughlin, Saturday morning. Some in
the county, he said. failed to file their
bonds within the ten days. 1t seems
that in many sections Of the state there
have been either innocent disregard OF
the new amendment or a total igno'
rance of the change.
