BROTHER IN LIST —l Mrs. John Schnitz Griefstricken to Find Brother’s Name Among Dead. 'iiia IDENTIFIED AT PERU Saw it First in Democrat— Left Today to Learn j More of Tragedy. I ' Mrs. John Schnitz of North Eighth i II street, had her fears for relatives iu Peru confirmed Friday evening, when she read in the Decatur Democrat, the name of her brother, Daniel Volmer, j among the list of identified dead at 1 I Peru. In a dispatch from Huntington, [it the same paper, it was stated that •John Volmer of tnat city, was alio among the dead in Peru. Mrs. ; Schnitz has a brother, John, at Huntington, and whether he happened to be visiting in Peru at the time of the floods, and was also lost, is unknown. All efforts to get word direct from Peru failed her, and Mrs. Schnitz then telephoned to her mother and sister at Roanoke. They had read of the brother’s death also, and on failure to get word, sent a man to Peru to ! learn, if possible, the details of the : affair. Nothing more than was published in the papers was known, but ' i fears for the worst are entertained, j < Mr. and Mrs. Schnitz left over the Qlie for Markle this morning, where i relatives will meet them. If possible,! Mr. Schnitz, himself, will go to Peru to investigate. Daniel Volmer was married and had a family of two children. Their sister, Mrs. Van Dine, also resides in Peru, and they fear that all may have been lost. IN PLAY CIRCLES Euclid Male Quartet and Bell Ringers for Monday Evening. SCREAMING SUCCESS Was ‘‘Billy's Bungalow” Given Last Night-Sen-ior Class Plays. The last number of the high school lyceum entertainment court, will be the concert Monday evening, at 8:15 at Bosse's opera house, March 31. it will be given by the Euclid Male Quartet and Bell Ringers. This is the company that was to have been here January 16, but was prevented by a mix-up of dates. The company comprises W. C. Spade, bass and manager; O. W. Beaver, second tenor and reader; A. R. Lynn, first tenor and pianist; C. I. Beaver, baritone and pianist. The quartet carries the largest set of organ chimes of any similar or* ganization now in lyceum. The concert is booked for Monday, but there is no assurance that it will be given. A telegram sent by Prof. Rice has failed to get a reply, and there is fear that the company may be stranded somewhere and fail to get here, on account of the flood con- j dltions. Everything, however, may come out all right and the company , get here on schedule time. Mortgages, of course, are ever- j present, but one likes to get a rest from them at\some time, especially when they go to a show. Not a hint of a mortgage of any kind was given f in the plot of the home talent play,! ‘■Billy’s Bungalow,” given at the opd era house Friday evening, and its brisk, original conception, as well as the really excellent portrayal of the characters by the players, made it one of the best shows of local presentation. It was a three-act comedy, and there was not a dull moment. The play was given under the direction of i Miss Maher fcjdith, Weldy, and carried out by an excellent staff of amateurs. I fl Vaughn Murray, ’Us Billy Middleton, builder of a summer home island bungalow for a bouse party, played, his part well. Peggy Middleton. his bride of three months, was charmingly portrayed by Mabel Weldy. While j they were enjoying life on their island with their guests, their servants suddenly departed taking the only boat. Their stock of provisions rah ! ow, and no one Jvnew how to cook 1 ose they did have, and the complications arising therefrom, made up clever little story. Colonel Geo. her, from Washington, the jovial ger. Miss Laura Cauld-

• well, the unexpected guest, a maiden lady yearning to wear the name of Colonel George, was excellently given ,by Mrs. Ruby Baker. Miss Dorothy ' French, Peggy's sister, was cleverly ’ enacted by Miss Nellie Daniels. Theodore Thurston, Billy’s friend, a lover ,of Miss French, whose engagement . to him was broken by a lover’s quarj rel, was fittingly presented by E. V. Core. Miss Kitty Campbell, a jolly ; little girl, not yet "out,” was prettily ! given by Miss Glennys Mangold. Gordon Middleton, a brisk college lad, , who adored Miss Kitty and told her] so, was brightly presented by Sher- ■ • man Beery. Quite the scream of the ; I evening was the clever portrayal by ■ ! Frank Bremerkamp, of the English | ’chappie,” the Hou Francis Fair] (Weather Spaulding, was engaged to Miss French, after she broke her engagerueul io Theodore Thurston. The audience was not so large as the merit of the production merited, but a goodly throng saw the play and is enthusiastic in its praises. The seniors of the Decatur high high school will soon begin practice ’ for their class day exercises. These will include two plays—" The Private Secretary," and ’’The Mock Commencement.” The latter will be a burlesque program. i UNCLE HEZEKIAH OBSERVES Im nachurally optimistic; but th' i only act uv Providence I kin figger . out in this flood btznese, is thet it I will giv remerniscences er sumptnm I for th’ younger generation t’ talk .about t’ their children and grandchildren, so’s't they kin begin “Onct ! upon a time.” IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII ANew Sweet for Tonight It is sometimes difficult for the housewife to plan the nei! dessert.
