We had a pleasant call Thursday
evening last from Mesdames D. T.
Stuart, George p. Adams and Maud
Keene, and on Friday Mrs. Roe Aust
and Miss Matte Gilbert were among
our most welcome visitors. There
is nothing like the smile Of a woman
to brighten sombre places, and the
HERALD office is always responsive
to the influence. We enjoyed their
calls, though brief, and trust that
they will come again.

one of the best men in the county.

if they elect him to an Office.

EarIham Chapel Crowded to
Capacity Limit at Enter
tainment Last Night.
.IONIAN-PHOENIX PUBLIC
POPULAR SUCCESS OF BEAUMONT
FLETCHER WELL PUT ON-IIST
OF THOSE WHO TOOK PART IN
ENTERTAINMENT

The farce comedy The knight of
the Burning Pestle" as given by the
Ionian and Phoenix literary societies
of Earlham last night, drew one of
the largest crowds ever assembled in
the chapel in Lindley Hall.
The play which is one of the Beu-
mont-Fletcher successes gives much
room for excellent acting and this
was well done last night The story
of the play runs as follows: Venture
we'll a merchant, discharges his ap-
prentice, Jasper, because he is in
love with his daughter, Luce, whom
he desires to marry to Humphrey
Luce promises to marry Humphrey if
he steals her away and takes her to
Waltham Forest, where, however, she
has planned to meet Jasper. At this
point Ralph the grocer apprentice,
afterward the knight of the Burning
Pestle assumes this character. Hum
phrey finally steals Luce away from
her father, but Jasper surprises him
and takes the girl away from him.
While Jasper and Luce are in the for
plan takes an unexpected turn and
Luce is retaken by her father Ralph
again appears and has a conflict with
a barber giant. Jasper then by his
cunning, steals Luce from her father
after she has been betrothed to Hum
phrey Venture we'll then makes
amends to Jasper's father and Luce
mr. To of
are married.
Special Mention Given.
The work of HadieIgh Marsh as
Ralph, The Knight of the Burning
Pestle was very good and he and w.
e. Elliott as Merrythought, the faith
er of Jasper kept the house in a roar
of laughter. All those students taking
parts in the play carried their parts
we'll and it is by the closest observ-
ance that any discrimination can be
made as to which carried their parts
the best. The following is the cast:

At THE THEATERS
Vaudeville at the Phillips.

Charles Better and Company, pre-
senting comedy playlet, are the fea.
ture of this weeks program in vaude-
vile at the New Phillips, although the
offering is satisfactory throughout.
The Botters put on a comedy based
on an estrangement between husband
and wife, all imaginary, he taking the
part OF the lawyer consulted by both
for divorce. The situations are highly
amusing and the partv are taken with
ability. The Hfrchhorns, Alpine enter
tainers have a novel act, including
music on odd instruments and vocal
numbers. Hugel Brothers, comedy
acrobats, are among the best in this
line that have visited the New Phillips.
Corrigan and Hays furnish the black
face portion of the bill, singing and
dancing. ]. L. Mack, known as the
Irish minstrel, gives musical numbers
that are pleasing. The illustrated
songs this week. sung by Miss Leona
Thompson, are when the Frost is on
the Pumpkin and ''In the Valley
Where the 'Bluebirds sing" and the
motion pictures as shown by the Phil
oscope are 1.-TWO Little Waifs," show
ing the adventures of children stolen
by gypsies and their final rescue;
"Parott's Revenge" love affair, and
"A Boarding School Conspiracy" in
which youngsters make the instructor
step lively, eliminating in a night
shirt race in which the police take
part.

GREAT FRAUD IS CHARGED
STATE AGENCY COMPANY
Forced to Protect Themselves
Against the Action of the Directors
of the Corporation.
Palladium Special

lPalladium SpeclaLJ
Indianapolis, June 11.-Stockholders
of the State Agency Company at a
meeting held in the Saks Building Sun
day to organize for protection against
what they regard as a fraud on the
part Of the dire ctors of the company,
discovered cause for additional agita-
ton in an alleged scheme involving
$259,000 more than the original sum
of $250,000, which, they say, several
of the directors intended to put to a
wrong use. 1t is said to have develop
ed at the meeting that the sum OF
S250,00O first mentioned as a cause for
grievance was payment merely for
an option on certain insurance terri
tory, and that had the contract been
closed the company would have been
pledged to pay an aggregate sum of
$500 900.
+ The meeting followed the issuance
of restraining order by the Superior
Court Saturday prohibiting the COM
pany from entering into a contract
with Otto l.. Vanlaningham for the ex-
culsive right to certain insurance ter
ritory in the Southwest. 1t was alleg-
ed that Vanlaningham had obtaine d
the contract in his individual name
from the State Life Insurance Com
pany and was in a conspiracy with
the directors of the State Agency Com
pany, of which he is also a director,
to sell them the contract in a fraud
ulent manner. The sum mentioned
was $250,000. but the stockholders say
the deal would have cost them an ad.
ditional $259,000.
