Logansport, Ind., Nov. 21 (Spl.) he probabilities are that George Ade

,-hich appeared at the Dowlin last

light, and famous for his fables ir

Liang, will not be initiated into the

local order of Elks at the meeting and

ianquet to be held the first Thursday light in December. It has been be-

ieved that Ade would come down here

it that time with a bunch of Kent-

land candidates, and be shown the

Iuysteries of Elkdom, but local Elks iave almost given up all hope. Secre

tary Herbert A. Brown says that a

lumber of Kentland applications have een received and passed upon, but

that George Ade's is not among them.

'he Kentland men who are joining

he order are all personal friends of he slang professor, and they have

been warking strennously to have him

hat they had his application clinched,

Its though the banquet will have to

In anticipation that Ade would join

the lodge, a number of the Elks have

The Volunteer Organist. Gennett. During the season of 1901-1902 "The

Volunteer Organist" was presented throughout the United States and Canada by three distinct companies, each carrying its own special scenery and

jmecnanical effects. It appears that ;in some cities an impression prevailed 'that those who saw company number j three or two were not so well treated

as the playgoers who witnessed the j production by company number one. , I Nothing could be farther from the i truth. As a matter of fact, the com-' i panies were of equal merit, while the 'three sets of scenery were exactly ; alike. , j The companies sent out this season ; jare made up principally from the play-: ; ers who were most successful last sea

son, so that the present production of ; "The Volunteer Organist", at least in a histronic sense, will be far in ad- J vance of that of all previous ones, phenomenally great as the triumph

of last year was. The organization j

j which presents "Tlie Volunteer Organ1 1st" in Richmond at the Gennett next Monday is company number one, and .will present as fine a cast and as

j perfect an equipment as any attrac j tion offered this year to the public.

"Gay New York" Gennett. It must occur to anyone at all acquainted with the names of foremjst members of the theatrical profession, especially with that extremely popular

contingent who fill the world with mirth and music that "Gay New York," which will be the special attraction at the Gennett next Tuesday night, has made a more than usual demand upon them, inasmuch as the long list of entertainers announced is strictly characteristic in this respect. In fact, "Gay New York" appears to have exercised some part of magic spell, so as to be able to corral so many of the really bright particular stars of mus

ical comedy. The stupendous aggre-l

gation comprises no lessor talent than Harry Emerson, Lillian Hoerlein, Edward B. Adams, Ollie Omega, Edward Brennen, "Florence Clements, Magda 11. Foy, Bessie Bartell, Richard Bartlett, James Devine and a goodly mini ber of comedians and singers who have attained to the highest ranks of delightful entertainers. Then again. "Gay New York" is said to be still further fortified in its powerful organization by the introduc
