CLUB LADIES FINE DRAMA.
Production of Mr.. Easyman's Niece"
At the Opera House Thanksgiving
Night Decided Success.

The home-talent drama "Mr.
Easyman's Niece" in four acts
which was given in the Opera House
Thanksgiving Night, is said by many
to have been the best play ever pre-
sented under the auspices of the
Twentieth Century Club. Whether
this be so or not, it was surely one
of the most clever. A large audi
ence greeted the performance and
from beginning to end those who
witnessed the performance were kept
IN a state of excitement over the
many scrapes Mr.. Easyman (Mr. W.
S. DiehD was in and how he was
going to get out of them. In this role
Mr.. Diehl made a decided hit and
performed his part exceptionally
well In the part of the niece,
-Desdemena Spencer-the Ghost
Mrs. Cummins E. Speakman) was
also exceptionally fine. She acted
her part admirably. The com, dy of
the play was furnished in a clever
manner by Miss Judith Carroll,
maiden aunt MRS. Marion Coverdale)
and Michael Flynn-the gardner
George W. Gunning). They kept
the audience in laughter most all the
evening. The whole cast is deserv-
ing of credit for the manner in which
they took their parts. Miss Gather
inc Stayton as "Mrs. Easyman''.
Miss Agnes Carrow as "Miss Bessie
Carroll" and Mr.. Maynard Griffith as
"Carew Carlton" furnished a strong
role in the plot which was worked
out. Mr.. Franklin Middletown took
the part of servant" ard later a
detective" in an admirable manner.
Altogether the play was most enter

Since J. w. Endean, Chief Engi-

on rights Of way for such a trolley
lineTwhich have been held by various
owning companies. including the old
Penn ylvania Railway Company and
the Smyrna and Delaware Bay Rail

templated such trolley line. Tre
former company built a road from
Middletown to ODESSA, and the latter
company was to buid the road from
Odessa to Smyrna, Woodland Beach
and Dover, but the entire project was
never carried out. The Middletown-

nit that the new company intended

JOINT TEACHERS INSTITUTE
Proposition For New Castle and Kent
to Join Forces Next Year.

The success of tn county teachers
institutes in this State last week has
caused several suggestions to be
made for next year. Superintendent
Carroll, of Kent County, has suggest
ed to Superintendent Spaid, of New
Castle County, that joint institute
be held next year at Dover. This
would enable the superintendent to
get three of the finest institute in
structnrs in the world, or at least
one of the world-famous educators
and three or four of the local favor
ties. 1t would make a great con-
vention of teachers Some of the
New Castle County teachers, it is
understood, opposed the move unless
the Kent teachers would agree to go
to Newark in 1911. This, it is claimed,
would be impossible. 1t is hoped
that the superintendent will get
together and hold an experiment joint
institute at least once in Dover.
