Monday. March 20, she gave birth
to a boy baby, Her case developed
into peri:onitis. Everything was
done for her that loving hands could
do, but she gradually grew worse
until death came and summoned her
to the world where no sickness OF
sorrow ever comes. We can say To
relatives and friends that they
should not weep as one who has
no hope, for Just few hours pre-
vious to her death she was con.
yerted and she told her friends she
was ready to go when the summons
came.
Besides her husband and sever
children Mrs. Holbrook is survived
by a mother, several brothers anc
sisters and a host of friends. The
remains were laid to rest in the
Hays graveyard, near where she
was raised. Weep not, dear hus
band and children. for mother Il

extend to her bereaved family ant
relatives our heartfelt sympathy.

BARRETT AS RIP VAN w1NkLE

DR.. Ossler was decidedly in the
wrong, thinking that man over
40 years of age should go out and
dig a hole in the ground and crawl
in and die. Barrett, the comedian,
is a proof to the contrary. He
has given seven entertainments at
the Soldiers Home here, each in
creasing in popularity till the last
given on the night of Feb. 22nd,
Washington's Birthday, was Jam.
The Assembly Hall is large
room, yet all the chairs from the
dining room and hospital were
pressed into service. Ladies were
brought in through the windows
and afterwards the windows were
Tiled by visitors unable to gain
admittance.
Rip VanWinkle aided by his
daughter "Meenie," seemed to
sway the audience from laughter
to tears at will. Miss Olive Graf.
ton as "Meenie" looked and acted
IL part to perfection. There was
not hitch to the ensemble from
acting to scenery. The last act,
or farce "Mr. Brown Dat Keeps
de Coal Yard was hilarious
outburst of merriment, commence
ing in a smoker and ending in
yells. Barrett was ably assisted
by Miss Marie Fogle, petite and
sweet. Malcome MacLean played
the eccentric DR.. Jones very well
indeed. The music was also first
class, in fact the Home seems to
bristle with talented musicians.
