Detective Looney (Bernard Kiting) then appears, and announces that Zita’s sweetheart, about whom there has been an unexplainable mystery, is in reality a wealthy young man. having inherited several millions from a wealthy unde. He had hidden his identity in an effort to secure a wife who would love him for himself and not for his money. » Miss Grace Coffee figured promin;e»tly in the comedy role of the play as Mrs. Blithers, the village gossip, who was always on hand to spread the least bit of scandal which she could glean from her visits about the town. Fred Colchin was very good as the eccentric village squire. In a curtain call received just previous to the opening of the third Act, the author expressed his appreciation of the cooperation received in Decatur, and also stated that in the many times he had directed the play, he had never had such a splendid portrayal of the character of "Toph" as was rendered in the production here by Herman Myers. Mr. Sheridan also complimented his musical director, Mr. True Frlstoe, and Miss Margaret Niblick, who had charge of the dancing groups, and then spoke his farewell to the people of Decatur. o GEODETIC POST IS SOUGHT HERE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) of it, but it Is thought probable that the stone was plowed up when the hospital grounds were landscaped. If any person remembers about it or knows anything that will aid in clearing up the matter for the government, they should give the information to Mr. Graham, postmaster, who will forward it to the department. The letter gives the following description of the lost stone and asks whether the station is still there, whether the marks are visible, whether any power lines or electric railways been established near it, whether any new buildings have been erected near it and whether the person reporting thinks a new station advisable. The card the stone as follows: "Decatur, Adams county—The station is in the northwestern corner of a piece of ground belonging to the ■ county, and called the old fair grounds, about one mile southeast of the town's center. It is near the southeast corner of the intersection of Grant and High streets. It is 104.9 feet from the north fence, and 149.5 from the west fence. 'The station is marked by a limestone post 5 by 7 by 30 inches, projecting about five inches above ground, and lettered U. S. C. & G. S., 1909. The following true bearing were determined: "Spire on steeple of Evangelical church 42 per cent, 12 west of north. “Top of cupalo of south ward public school 83 per eent, 54.7 west of north. “Lower southwest corner above stone fountain of a brick building which is sixth from the southwest corner of Grant and High streets, 40 per cent, 00.8 west of south.” o— • NOTICE OF COMMISSIONER’!* SALE OF REAL ESTATE Notice is hereby given that the undersigned commissioned by virtue of an order of the Adams Circuit Court made and entered in a certain cause therein, pending entitled Jacob A.
