The Marks sisters. the youngest mu-

The Marks Sisters, much-talked-of

their ability in splendid entertain
merit in the Grand Opera House, last
evening. Critics who passed judg-

their age they are standing upon very

The Daily Times, Z. Stroudsburg, Pa,
Nov. 9. 1908.
The Providence Tribune has this
to say of the Marks sisters -
In Churchill House last night
there was delightful recital given by
Miss Bertha Marks, violoncello; Miss
Mabel Marks, piano; and Miss Anna
r. Marks, violin. The recital was Of
unusual interest and charm because of
the age of the performers, all being
under twelve years. Their playing,
therefore, both individually and In en-.
semble, was remarkable. Especially
was this true of little Bertha Marks.
Her playing on the violoncello revealed
technique, feeling and musicianly in
telligence quite unusual In one so
young, and her work astonished the
audience. Each Of the players aroused
enthusiasm. @
You can feel positive OF an unusual
y brilliant program, at the same time
it should prove a wonderful object les
son especially to children, as to what
can be accomplished Dy constancy."

The inquiry of the commission has
developed the fact that there are more
drug stores than are necessary to meet
the legitimate requirements of the
people; also that there are drug stores
in many places that are selling liquor
and wines to be drunk on the premises
as beverage contrary to law; also
selling certain patent medicines and
mixtures and even alcohol to be used
as beverage. The laws and regula-
lions should be very strict, limiting the
sale of intoxicating liquors to medic
inal purposes only.

MUCH LIVESTOCK PERlsHEs
Nine Head of Horses and Fifteen Hogs
Arc Burned in the Building, To-
gether With Other Contents = Loss
Will Reach $4,000, With $1,000 In
surance-orisin Is Unknown.

The big stock pavilion and other
property of the Farmers Exchange
Company of Laurel were totally de-
stroyed by fire early this morning. Con-
siderable livestock persisted in the
flames, together with other contents.
The loss will reach $4,000 and is COW
cred by $500 insurance on the build
ing.
When the fire was discovered. be-
tween and 3 o'clock, the roof had al
ready fallen in, and the flames had
reached such Roadway that nothing
could be done excepting to devote a
united effort to prevent the fire spread
ing. Famed by breeze from the
northwest, it was feared for a time that
the flames would get beyond control.
They were confined to the company's
property, and spread only to the hog
sheds and other small outbuildings.
In the building at the time of the
fire were nine head Of horses, fifteen
head Of hogs, eleven barrels of mo-
lasses, some stock feed, and harness..
ALI were destroyed.
The stock pavilion was built a few
years ago at cost of $4,000, and has
been used for exhibition and sale pur-
poses. 1t is thought quite likely that
the company will rebuild, altho no
definite decision has as yet been made.
