The “Town Topics” company which held the boards at Ellis opera house Monday evening, was one of the best all-round companies that has been here this season. Owing no doubt to there having been so many entertainments here of late they had only a small house. They had an open date and repeated the play the following evening to a much better house. The library entertainment on Friday evening of last week, given by the Ladies’ Literary society, was well attended and was pronounced by many as one of the best entertainments thus far given. Notable among the best numbers on the program were the piano solos by Mrs. G. K. Hollingsworth, the vocal solos by Miss Reed, the devotional poem by Mrs. W. S. Parks, the “Riley Medley,” by Mrs. Medicus, and the duets by Mesdames English and Mitchell. death of Uncle James Culp removes the oldest man in Jasper county, and, we believe, since the removal of “Granny” Wilkins, Remington’s centenarian, to Ohio, the oldest person in the county. Mr. Culp was a good man, honest and upright in every way, and was universally beloved. He was a firm believer in the golden rule of doing unto others as you would that others should do unto you. and practiced it in all his dealings with bisfellowmen He voted the democratic ticket because he believed in the principles of justice and equality for which that party stands, and not for hope of political reward. He fought a good battle and lived to a grand old age—au age which few people are spared to reach—and the world was better for his having lived. Peace to his ashes.
