WHAT'S NExT.-A good crowd gath
cred at Walton's Opera House Friday
evening to witness the amusing three
act farce comedy, What's Next, pre-
sented by local talent under the man.
agement Of Miss Bertha jackson, who
took the double role of Polly Poke and
Mary Ann Fogarty and acted them both
most creditably. She is very much at
home on the stage and far above the
amateur in the management and direc-
tion of her company. Miss Sallie Tay-
lor Woods made charming Rose Mad
der. while as Gertie Gush. an old maid,
Miss Frances Cooper was exceedingly
good. Miss Bessie Yantis portrayed
Mrs. Wallace. fascinating widow in
search Of husband, with much credit.
DR.. Charles Chintzer, was represented
by Mr.. l.. Wearen Hughes. who played
the difficult part splendidly. As Moses
Nader, an artist. with an eye to bust
ness. Mr.. John Owsley Reid showed
himself most capable actor. His was
perhaps the heaviest part but he was
fully equal to the occasion. Phlneas
Poke was the part assigned to Mr.. Wal
ter MilDurn and he gave it most credit
ably. He made fine member of the
deestrict school board and his make I'D
was so complete that few knew him.
Zeph Somers, rustic with "Injuns',
on the brain, was well acted by Mr.
Russell Brown, who has had consider
able experience before the footlights.
Elwood Totten. as Timothy Trenworth,
wealthy Texan. in search of his
daughter. was A /. Prof. Ernest Glib
son. as Willy Nilly. the dudelet from
Gotham, was very good and his efforts
at counting very amusing. Hubert Car
penter represented Michael McGilp, a
bold, bad policeman. and made a first
rate one. A number of boys and girls
played school children in Act No. / and
their efforts brought forth much ap.
plause. A vocal solo by Miss Nancy
Yeager was greatly enjoyed. The en-
was most creditable one
from start to finish and those who took
part are deserving Of hearty congratu-
lation. They worked hard to make the
show a success and right well did they
succeed. About SOS was cleared, which
will go to the Christian Endeavor So
ciety of the Christian church.

EVERY WIFE SHOULD GIVE
HUSBAND FAIR CHANCE
Must Live a Reasonable Time With
Abusive Partner.

Wilkes-Barre, Pa, Sept. 23.-Judge
Fuller in refusing a divorce to Mrs.
Adam Yeager held that it is the duty
of wife to put up with i'll treatment
by her husband until she has given
him trial long enough to demonstrate
the hopelessness of reforming him
Mrs. Yeager lived with her husband
only four months. She said that he
got drunk, swore at her, was cross,
accused her of taking money from
his pockets, and was generally abu-
sive. Judge Fuller said:
1.-The evidence shows him to be
worthless creature, addicted to drink
and vile language, with complete in
sensibility to marital obligations, but
this character must have existed be-
fore marriage, and she took him for
better or worse with her eyes open.
''She gave him too short trial In
the absence of actual violence her
marriage vow imposed upon her the
duty to endure his conduct, disagree
able and disgusting at it was, at least
for period of time which would
demonstrate the hopeIessness OF ne
formation, and that period had not
elapsed when she severed herself from
his society"
