The will of the late Jacob fehutz. a farmer living near Bremen, which divides his estate among his widow and i:j children, was admitted to probate by Judge Funk in the circuit court Wednesday afternoon.

Each of the children except Peter were given $675 for remaining with their parents until they were 21 years old.

After this distribution is made the remainder is to be divided equally among the children and the widow. If any should be dissatisfied with the provisions of the will or take steps to contest it. the instrument provides that he shall take nothing. The children of Schutz. who are all living, are: Jacob.

the Theatres

"FRAZZLED FINANCE." Philip Donergan has written this clever little farce. The idea is original, the business of the piece good, and altogether it is an excellent offering. The story is of an old maid, who, believing m the old adage, "Get a man jealous and he's yours." hired a tramp to imnersonate a sweetheart. When the lady's ruse has proven successful, the tramp is seen tramping out of town, glad to be rid of his Job, and somewhat better off than when he entered upon his sweetheartly duties. At Surprise theater today. AT THE ORPHEUM. Singing and dancing numbers usually form the background for all musical comedies and in "The Heartbreakers," which opens an engagement at the Orpheum at Thursday's matinee, there are ten big numbers that the chorus is used in. The one that has received the most favoro.ble coi...nent from the critics throughout the country is "My Honolulu Honey Lou." a buck and wing number that calls for the entire company. In selecting the principals the management have been fortunate in securing several that appeared with the original production when the piece had its year-long run in Chicago and in selecting the chorus they have been careful o choose, both good singers and dancers. The scene of the rapid fire comedy takes place in a bachelors' club called "The Heartbreakers." showing both lower and upper tloors in the building and some of the complications that arise, are decidedly mirthprvoking. Vincent Dusey, a singing comedian of ability, heads the big cast and the feminine members have been chosen for their prepossessing looks and ability as operatic entertainers. The costumes, scenic equipment and electrical effects are the equal of any used by the larger organizations and a capital entertainment is promised. GiiAYci; scorr players. The season of the Grayce Scott Players at the Auditorium has thus far been a notable one. Never before has a stock company given the theatergoing people of this city such splendid performances or productions. This week's play. "The Man From Home" is no exception to the standard already set and the crowds that attended Sunday and Monday agreed that its performance compared favorably to that given by William Hodge. The company is seen to splendid advantage. Miss Scott t-s tne girl who has become alienated from her home and country. Mr. Ford as Daniel Yoorhees Pike, the man from Kokomo who brings the girl back to Indiana. Mr. Anders Is dignified and delightful as the Grand Duke. Mr. Newing as a dapper little Englishman, who hasn't a worry and Is particularly good; Mr. Berthelet does a good bit of acting as Ivanhoof. who has escaped from Siberia and is befriended by "The Man From Home." Miss Knott as Iady Creek is excellent, as is Miss Dudley as the countess. Mr. Thompson as Lord Howcanle and Mr. Hilyer as Horace Granger-Simpson. "Joyck or Tin: north woods." Much interest ha.s been shown in the two-reel special. "Joyce of the North Wood.V which comes to the American theater today, with Mary Fuller in the part of "Joyce." Ormi Hawley will he seen in an extra goo J ilrama, "P'ahion's Toy." THREECHILDWEN- DEAD l ire Cau! by Hphin of Oil Iaul 1'nta II v. FOIIT SMITH. Ark., ikt. 2.
