A comedy and vaudeville company
of unusual merit has been engaged to
npaear at lirooh side park next week.
It is known as the (Jipheum Comedy
company, consisting of clever comedi
ans dainty dancers and singers headed
by the charming little soutrette, Vlra
Mascotte. The company recently played
at lirler park, liellows Kalis, and Man
ager Holton writes in highest praise of
them. They are now playing at Battle
tijld park, tiennington. The local pa
pers spoke of tho company last week
as being tho finest comedy aud vaude
ville combination that has played there
this season.
Mrs Hattie Cary Webster, who has
been summering here with her father,
Dr Webster, left Tuesday evening.called
by the illness at Cienfuegos.Cuba. with
typhoid fever, of ber husband, W H
Care,', now the general manager of the
Conttantia Sugar company, the second
largest one of the island. He had been
known to be ill for a week and a let
ter from the president of the company
stated that it was typhoid fever, that
he was at a private hospital near the
city, but that lie ought to be moved
north as soon as possible. Dr. Web
ster also contlnred this by cable with
the doctor of the hospital, and Mrs
Cary started as sjoo as possible, leav
ing her baby here. Mr Gary's condi
tion is desci 'bed as r ot immediately dan
gerous, and Mrs Curt, who sailed from
N'ew York Wednesday morning, ought
to reach there by Monday. Mr Cary
wer.t to Cuba as auditor for tho compa
ny and it was this spring that be was
promoted to be general manager.
Michael Kelley has told his story to
Vil age Attorney Bacon about the James
J Gritlin affair and it leaves it as much
a mystery as ever. He says he went
over ou the island about t) o'clock tin
evening of',' June lijth and there saw
Grillin with James lioyce aud acother
man whom be could not identify, sit
ting on the grass drinking on the east
side of Grant's granite shop: that they
oft-red him a drink, which be took,
aud it was such horri'jh; stuff that it
made him sick and he turned round and
proceeded to vomit, and when ho fin
ished this interesting procedure the
three had vanished. Jams Ho)cohs
bean Interviewed by Bacon without be
in? told of Kelley 'a story, or that the
latter had told any. lit admits that he
was there with Griffin on the evening
named and says the man whom, curi
ously enough, Kelley couldn't identify,
was Dummy Manning. He says that
Kelley chiii9 along, but instead of their
giving him a drinK it was his own liq
uor tbat he swallowed, and then began
to throw up, and that then be and
Manning started home, leaving Kelley
there. They parted w ith Grillin at the
railroad crossing and he started down
the track while they proceeded on to
ward their hoiaes, and this was the last
that they ever saw of Ilia. Griflln was
not drunk, he says.
An athletic event of unusual inter
est wiil take place Tuesday evening at
Grange hall, when W li Mettey will
hold an "Athletic Carnival." The pro
gramme planned is one of unmual
strength and variety, opening with two
SDarnoe bouts by two pairs of local
sparrers and a collar and elbow wrest
ling contest ; the intermissions will be
rilled in with an exhibition of clut
swinging by n local adept at the art,
and another exhibition of buck and
wins dancing and baton iugcling. The
closing event of this unusual program
i 13 rounds of scientific sparring by
"Kid" Bean of Montreal, featherweight
champion of Canada, and Ktldie Quinn,
winner of 20 events. This last event
should prove one of the most interest
ing contests ever seon in thia part of
the country as both men are most evenly
matched.
It is not oftes that an opportunity
is afforded our people like that which
presents itself ou Thursday next, viz,
the Lawn Tea and Organ Uecital of the
Baptist church. The cool grounds, the
generous bill of fare, consisting of salads,
ices and various other delicacies and
last, but not least, the excellent concert
in the church (a rrogram of which is
appended) will certainly appeal to a
very ereat number who desire to feed
both body and o.ind at a very little ex
peuse. Mr Samuel Dunn of Montreal Is
the possessor of a fine bass voice whieh
he uses with great effect. He has until
lately tilled the position of bass soloist
