Jasper County Democrat, Volume 8, Number 25, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 September 1905 — THE HOOSIER GIRL. [ARTICLE]

THE HOOSIER GIRL.

The Terre Haute Express has this to say: “The Hoosier Girl” entertained a big audience at the Grand last night. The play is one with a rural atmosphere which allows opportunity for rustic fun. Roxana, the Hoosier girl, as presented by Miss Katie Watson, is a jolly, lively part which is deservedly popular. She has a very pleasant natural and easy style of her

own and was easily the most interesting person on the stage. Mr. Gus Cohan as Heinrich Wetzel, the German farmer boy, was very conspicuous. He is a clever comedian and his work last night has had no equal on the local stage. The company is far above the average and the story is a simple romance along familiar lines. The musical numbers, song and dances, united in making one of the most enjoyable performances of the season. At Ellis opera house, Monday night, Sept. 25.
