There is nothing to connect it with last year's production except the appearance of Mr. Charles A. Loder. anil no matter what the circumstances, the production would be n no wise complete without that incomparable funny comedian. The company has been entirely reconstructed and numbers such well known artists as James J. Brady, the lever Irish comedian, Wood Alexander, the black face laugh-maker, Alt C. Pierce, another very clever en* '•rtaitier, Russell Alexander, Newton Alexander. Mina Ginelli, and the Kxposition Four, the great est musical juartette now on the stage. There also a large and pretty chorus of show girls and more than a score of inging and dancing hits, many of which were written especially for this product ion "That's how near I came to being a Pennsylvania Assemblyman," said Mr. Timblin as he started home to his grocery. Mr. Tirablin's timidity was shared by all to whom the nomination was tendered, but wiien the votes were counted every Republican nominated was found io have been elected by substantial majorities. And so would Mr. Timblin have been had lie accepted the nomination. "You Clarion County Republican." think I'm easy, don't prou? I appreciate the honor you do me. but when 1 run for an office I would like to have a little show for an election. I believe the Republican party is go ing to win out this tall, hut not in Clarion County. I would just as soon run for governor of Texas on the Republican ticket as I would for Assemblyman on that ticket in Clarion County." Mr. Timblin. however, turned the proposition down fiat. Said he, J. A. Timblin, of Hawthorne, Clarion County, was in Punxsutawney last Saturday. Until about a year ago Mr. Timblin resided in South western Jefferson County, where he was known as a hustling merchant and one of the most prominent politicians in Porter Township. Soon after hecoming a resident of Clarion County some of the Republican leaders in his bailiwick having heard of Mi Timblin's rockribbed Republicanism, suggested that his name be placed on their ticket as a candidate for State Assemblyman. The county leaders fell right in with the idea and Mr. Timblin was tendered the honor forthwith.Barney and Charlie formed a team of strong pullers owned by A A Delorme, a prominent farmer of West Liberty. The horses were broke by Mr. Delorme 3 5 years ago, when he was 6<» years old. The animals shared each other's burdens and were never hitched with *other horses for 112 years, when Charlie laid down one day and failed to rise again. Harney plainly showed his grief at the loss of his mate, but was kept on light work and at times became quite coltish in his old age. Last week, however, he too went the way of all horse flesh.- DuHois Courier. t he score consists of an overture, an intermezzo, two marches, several chorals and some reinforcing music tor the chief situations. The music tii 110 way obtrudes upon the drama -the play is always the thing but it is an eloquent illustration of the algli possibilities in Incidental music if producers of plays would take pains to obtain only melodies which aarmonize with the character of the stories. To do Mascagni justice, and lor the pleasure of the audience, an enlarged orchestra will be employed, some of the musicians coming from New York with the company. Owing 10 the length of the performance, the overture will be begun at s o'clock. A special train will leave I'unxsutnwney at 7 p. m., returning after the performance.
