GREAT ATTRACTION NEXT WEEK
1.-THE Man From Home" One of the
Very Finest Attractions Ever
Seen i'm DEBORAH.

We cannot recommend too highly
the next booking at the Grand, THE
Man From Home" which comes here
next week Saturday evening, Nov.
9Th. 1t is a play which has delight
ed the audiences of the big cities
of the country with long runs, and
is everywhere credited with being
one of the most appealing of modern
productions. The company which
comes to DEBORAH is splendid one,
and has been showing in the big
citiese to large and constantly de-
lighted audiences. We predict that
the Grand will be packed that eve
ming. The production certainly de-
serves one of the largest houses ever
in This theatre.
The following is an excerpt from,
a lengthy criticism from the Milwau-
kee Daily News:
With every one of the acts laid
in the old world, with only three
American characters in a cast of
sixteen-and two of these doing all
in their power to conceal their
American descent and "be English"
Tile Man From Home" is never
theless one of the most distinctively
American plays ever put upon the
stage.
The dominating character of the
name part in the piece, that of
Daniel Voorhees, Pike, a plain, easy
going lawyer from Kokomo, Ind,
quite overshadows the numerical
predominance of characters other
than American, and though French,
German, Russian, English, Italian
and other old world characters in
profusion are individually and with
out a single exception played pract-
ically to perfection by various men,
bers of the company gathered to-
gether by Liebler & Co. for the road
tour of the piece, yet this homely
character of the Indiana lawyer is
so thoroughly interviewer into the
pretty story of the play that the
audience cannot, if it would, for a
moment lose sight of Daniel Voorhees,
Pike and true Americanism is the
dominating theme throughout.
The story of how Pike, calmly
and dispassionately, despite the al
most brutal reception accorded him
by the young people whose best in
terests he serves, carries out the du-
ties of deceasd friend who has
named him as the guardian of his
children toward a brother and sister
seeking marriage for the girl with
a titled but unworthy son of Eng

Roller Skating Rink.

Messrs. Edward Bear and B. E.
Bucknell have leased the lower floor
of the Marsh hall for a roller skat-
ing rink during the winter season.
This hall has a fine floor, they will
have up-to-date equipment in every
respect, and will conduct a. thor
oughly high class rink, giving the
best possible service to the skaters.
Both of these gentlemen have had
much experience in public gather
ings and amusements, and the fact
that they are associated in this busi-
ness guarantee the conducting of a
first class amusement resort. The
rink open next Friday evening, Oc-.
goth, and on this occasion music
will be furnished by the DEBORAH
Drum Corps.

that he has received a letter from

done with the plans for the new

that they will probably be reached

Lieut.. Shackleton tells of a curious
phenomenon of life in the Antarctic
regions. The daily journey is Of
course taken under atmospheric con-
ditions involving the EXTREMIST cold.
The danger of what is called catch

that the toll of dragging sledges over

condition of profuse perspiration.
Nevertheless, during the whole OF
their stay in the Antartic regions not
a single one of the adventures suffer-
ed from bodily infrmity ordinarily
following on exposure to extreme
cold. The popularity was the more
marked in view of the fact that at the
