"Tho
Sis Hopkins Monday.
Ono of tho oddest characters on
tho stngo today Is that of Obadlnh.
tho undertaker's assistant in Sis
Hopkins, which coinos to tho Grand
opora house noxt Monday evonlng.
Obndlah Is u clumsy sort of a rustic
typo wlioso ono Idoa In life Is to get
rondy for prospective victims. Ho
goes about with a tape measure, nnd
dreams of death and disaster. Tho
gossip which tolls him of tho Illness
of tho oldest Inhabitant or the ail
ments of tho countryside people,
brings Joy to his soul, and ho keeps
track of what tho vlllago physician
Is doing. Ho wears tho most fu
noreal garment, nnd yot, ho is funny.
Not contont with. merely being n gen
eral calamity howler, ho propurcs
tho opltaphs for his neighbors nnd
their recitation Is ono of tho bright
est laughing spots In tho play. Oba
dlah Is ono of tho clovorcst charac
ter studies on tho stngo today. This
Is MIsb Molvlllo's tenth season as Sis
Hopkins, tho odd Posey county girl
who wears funny ltttlo red celluloid
sldo combs, gingham plnaforo, strip
ed stockings, tho llko of which havo
not been seen In more than a decado;
and those curious panelln gattors
which wero tho fashion in tho lato
sovontlcs and tho oarly eighties. She
also wears her hair in two tight little
pigtails.

It is with an moused anticipation
of sood things in view of tho local
heatro-goers await tho coming of
IJrowster's Millions," which will bo
tho bill at tho Grand opera house In
the near future. The play Is a stngo
version of George Dnrr McCutchcon's
lively and successful book of that
name. Tho story Is odd, and toils of
tho efforts of Montgomery Drowsier
to spend n million dollars loft him
by his grandfather within a yonr,
nnd to preserve complete secrecy re
garding hlB object. Ho is not per
mitted to glvo or gnmblo It nwny,
nor is ho permitted to ondow nny
Institution or erect nny pormnnont
memorial. This Is mndo n condition
undor which ho Inhorlts tho fortune
ton times ns vast from an unolo who
had conceived and nursed a bittor
hutred for tho grandfather. Tho
comedy will bo presented by tho Co
han and Harris comodlnns, headed
by that capable and woll known com
edian, Kobort Obor. Tho sconlc equip
ment Is ono which Is rarely equalled
by traveling companies.
