“Mrs. Dean has. For the purpose of 
“organizing such a class a meeting will

‘street. It is understood Miss Kit- 
Wfield will hold her class in tre attrac- 
" tive little hall over E. A. Lane’s shop, 
School street. 
_ A very pleasant surprise party was 
held at the home of Miss Margaret 
“Meaney on Morse’s court last Friday 
‘evening, the occasion being her 18th 
birthday. Eighteen of her young 
friends were present. Joseph Brad- 
‘ley presented Miss Meaney with a 
pbeautiful pendant in behalf of her 
father. An ornamented birthday cake 
was cut by the hostess and light re- 
freshments were served during the 
evening. After a most pleasant party 
the young people closed their festivi- 
ties at a late hour. 
™ For that Christmas dinner—all 
_ those essential things, such as figs, 
‘citron, table raisins, oranges, grape 
fruit, etc., at Bullock Bros. adv,

‘WHat HAPPENED TO JONES” 
George H. Broadhurst’s uproar- 
iously funny comedy, “What Happen- 
Ted to Jones,” will be the offering 
‘at the Empire Theatre, Salem, 
Wall next week. This play was 
‘written for laughing purposes only 
“and from all reports it certainly must 
‘be a veritable laughing factory. It is 
said to be a sure cure for the blues. | 
Mr. Broadhurst, the author of this 
funny farce, is conceded by many 
as America’s greatest comedy play- 
wright. The funny creatiens of his 
extraordinary mind, as presented on 
the stage, have made people laugh, it 
‘is claimed, more than any two other 
* __>rican authors. 
_ The role of Jones, who sells hymn 
books and playing cards and incident- 
‘ly causes all the trouble in the play, 
| will be played by Arthur Behrens. 
His advent into the goodly home af- 
ter a prize fight raid, when he steal- 
_thily creeps in through a window, is 
“rather startling. In his haste not to 
e detected he grabs a suit from the 
aid and dons :t. The suit happens 
to be the property of Bishop Goodly, 
who is visiting his brother, the pro- 
‘fessor, and the complications which 
follow can best be imagined.
