Dry Goods Department
i
The Carl Jjerch Company wia bgin a
week's engagement at Hie Opera House,
Monday, January 6th, with a change of
bill and specialties each night. The
llnmbolt Times has the following to say
of ttiis company:
The Carl Birch Dramatic Co. opened
to a big house at the Occidental Theatre
last evening, and what is more gave bet
ter satisfaction than any other company
that has appeared at that house for many
a day. The company is small, but it is
made up of good people, as they say in
the profession, some of whom are not
stianenj to Eureka audiences. Frank
Ueadick, the leading man, playpd; a sea
son here several years ago while Carl
Beroh was here with Jas. M. "Ward when
he put on "After Dark," "Ranch 10"
and other plavs here some yea,-s ago.
Miss Mable 'Werner, leading Judy, is a
strikingly handsome woman and more
over is an actress of considerable ability.
Then there is Miss Millie Freeman, w ho
last evening showed herself to be an ex
ce en t character comedienne. The little
son of Frank Keadick, a precocious child,
is also a feature of th company. The
balance of the company are far above
the average support carried by traveling
companies.
The play last night was "The Gamb
ler's "Wife." A melodrama ia which Mr.
Keadick has been seen here before. In
this piece Mr. Keadick plays the title
role while Mr. Kerch is his partner,
Denver Dan," the old time sport, and
it is needless to say that both character
izations were acceptable.
Prices 25, 35 and 59 cents. Reserved
seats at Gran am & "Wortham's.
The remains of Mrs. Deborah
Hughes, whose death occurred
at Walla Walla, Wash., last

years ago. She is survived by
three sons, Robert, Joseph and
Doke, and a large circle of sin
cere friends, who will mouia
her departure. As " a mother,,
