THE USUAL RUSH For a Choice of Location — Mrs. Wiggs Seems to Be Very Popular. If the advance sale is any criterion the production of Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch should be one of the greatest home talent productions ever put on in Decatur. As early as seven o'clock Wednesday the people commenced to assemble at the Holthouse drug company's store and at eight o'clock you could not get within gun shot of the board and by half past eight every seat had been reserved and the board for Friday night's production was put on sale and that partly sold. The cast for this show is the strongest one that has ever appeared in a home talent production and all have been working hard to make the same a success, which it no doubt will be. Mr. Henry Thomas who has been drilling this company is satisfied with the rehearsals and says that they have far exceeded his expectations. The Decatur high school orchestra will furnish the music between acts and as the boys have a fine organization the public will hear something excellent in this line. The cast of characters is as follows: Mrs. Wiggs (Optimist) Mrs. Jennie Studabaker Lovey Mary (misunderstood) .... Miss Marie Jackson Miss Hazy (pessimist). .Minnie Orvis Miss Lucy (the Xmas lady) Miss Edna Hoffman Mrs. Eichorn (a cross patch) Miss Vada Martin Mrs. Schultz (neighborhood censer) Mrs. I. Kalver Asia. Australia, Europena (of the house of Wiggs)... .Miss Ada Murray, Miss Ruth Hammell, Miss Verona Niblick. Cuby—an annexation By Himself Mr. Stubbs, of Bagdad Junction.. Mr. Frank Wemhoff Mr. Wiggs (after long years).... Mr. Henry Thomas Mr. Bob —an editor Mr. Calvin Peterson Billy Wiggs (an outer and outer).. Mr. Sim Burk Chris Hazy, Miss Hazy’s nephew..

WANTED TO RETURN Insisted that Mayor Coffee Should Give Him Ninety Days Instead of Ten. Bismark, the dectective from Geneva, the glass eater of Berne, and the whiskey drinker of Decatur, as he styles himself was arrested Tuesdayevening by Policeman Bohnke and lodged in jail. Yesterday he was arraigned before Mayor Coffee and immediately plead guilty and was assessed a fine of one dollar and ten days. When the mayor imposed this sentence Bismark seemed to be offended and informed the mayor that he had promised to send him up for ninety days if he appeared before him again and asked that the former penalty be get aside and that he be given a sentence of ninety days. Bismark on Tuesday morning was released after spending ten days with Sheriff Meyer and as Soon as he came down street started to drinking and followed the police around asking them to arrest him. Bismark is in all probability, the most eccentric character that ever visited Decatur, and the police have reached tha degree where they don’t know what to do with him. He has spent most of his life in jail and this place no doubt seems like home to him. However, while he is serving this sentence the authorities will endeawor to solve the riddle as to what to do with him.
