Jasper County Democrat, Volume 8, Number 31, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 November 1905 — Page 5 Advertisements Column 6 [ADVERTISEMENT]

Remember the Cloak opening at Rowels & Parker’s Tuesday, Nov. 7. The prize piano offered by The Democrat will be used to furnish music for the occasion. “The Winning Hand,” which appeared at the opera house last evening, is one of the best in the comedy-drama line ever witnessed in our city, and went with a dash and vim that was quite refreshing. Special mention must be made of the clever work of Miss Marie Ostella and Eddie Delaney, whose singing and dancing was of the highest order and brought many encores by their cleverness. Should this clever company visit our city again they will surely be greeted by a packed bouse.— Leader, McHenry, 111. At Ellis* Opera House, Tuseday night, November 7. Prices 25, 35, 50c. Mrs. Alexander Rennie of Providence, R. 1., who is visiting Mrs. E. P. Honan, on Tuesday recited an orignial poem of her’s at the D. A. R., meeting, at Miss Mildred Harris, on“ Bible Hill”, N. H., where the summer home of the Rennie’s is located. Bible Hill took its name from the fact that in the early history of New Hampshire the only bible in the state was owned or located there, and for many years people used to come from long distances to hear and read the word of God. Mrs. Honan entertained Thursday evening at dinner in Mrs. Rennie’s honor, and next Wednesday will entertain at cards in honor of both Mrs. Rennie and Mrs. O’Connor of Delphi, who will also visit her next week. It is quite likely that if Henry Hildebrand doesn’t get.but one vote for councilman in the first ward he will be elected. Dr. Brown, the republican nominee, has lived in the ward only about thirty days, while the law to render him eligible to election requires a six months residence. The question of eligibility was raised, but the attorneys consulted held that he was eligible or would be by the time he took the office, next May, and he was left on the ticket. Other attorneys, including Judge Thompson, think that the candidate must have been a resident of the ward six months immediately proceeding the election, which it would appear is the only reasonable interpretation of the law.
