Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 199, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 August 1915 — Tonight’s the Big Night. [ARTICLE]

Tonight’s the Big Night.

The Cornell-Price Players arrived from Crawfordsville yesterday afternoon and the cordial greeting extended by their many Rensselaer friends was very gratifying to the various members. Everything is in readiness for this evening’s production of “In the Bishop’s Carriage;” and a crowded house is assured by the unusually large advance sale. Particular stress is laid on the vaudeville features for tonight, one of which is the Military Lunatic, whose “going to Washington to fight for the governor’s daughter” was town talk two years ago. Happy Hal Price and the entire cast are at their best in tonight’s play. The low prices of 10, 20 and 30 cents prevail, and if purchased before 6 p. m., one lady will be given adjoining seat free with each paid reserved seat ticket. A good $3.50 spring seat for $2.00, or SI.OO if purchased with a wagon bed. This is a bargain. HAMILTON & KELLNER.

Theodore Roosevelt and William Jennings Bryan hold directly opposite views about our national duty with reference to the sinking of the Arabic. Roosevelt says that words will no longer suffiice to demand “strict accountability” for the loss of American lives and recommends that American soldiers be put into training at ompe. Mr. Bryan says that Americfahs should keep off these vessels and not drag the U. S. into war. He says the time to discuss the position of the United States should be postponed a year. His theory is to let the belligerents solely alone and let the U. S. play its game of neutrality on this side of the ocean. '
