Wolcott Enterprise: Thursday of last week James Brashear hired a rig of Fred Grimes to drive to Rensselaer, intending to be back by Saturday but hearing nothing from him Monday Mr. Grimes became a little uneasy and tried to locate the man and team by telephoning, failing in which, be Went to Rensselaer Tuesday where he found bis team alright in one of the feed barns. He brought them home and attached the goods in the mattress factory, as no news of the whereabouts of Brashear were obtained. “Why Women Sin” was played at the opera house Monday evening by one of the best companies that has appeared here this season, and was thoroughly enjoyed by a fair sized audience. Both play and players were much above the average seen here. The music, which was furnished by a Crown piano fitted with an Angelus piano player, from the Geo. P. Bent piano store of which Mr. F. L. Demmett is local manager, was also an enjoyable feature of the evening’s entertainment. Few of our people had ever seen or heard one of these mechanical piano players, and to say that they enjoyed it is putting it mildlyi Mr. Demmett is located in the Leopold room, lately occupied by the Keplinger & Wright cigar store, where this instrument may be seen and heard. It is well worth your while to call and see the pianos on exhibition and hear this wonderful instrument. That good old “Sleepy Eye” flour at the Geo. E. Murray Co.
