The Majestic Stock Company at
this popular amusement park, to-
night presents that beautiful rural
four act comedy-drama founded on
Emiline Parker’s “Way Down East,”
entitled “Down East Folks.”
Hilda Miller as Ruth Walton show-
ed her many friends an entirely new
phase of her character, portraying
the part in a sweet and natural
manner. Harry J. Pamplin was
splendid as Allen Shaw.
Jack Boyer as the Squire, Harry
Mock as Si Haskins, and Vine Mar-
tin as Prof. Dobson d id very effect-
five work in their parts, and with
Mary London as Louisa Tompkins,
the village gossip, and Wave Boyer
as Mabel Halstead, who act their
parts in a very pleasing manner, the
company succeeded in producing one
of the best bills so far this season.
The specialties by Harry Mock
and the Cunningham Sisters were
certainly appreciated, and the Four
Sedgwicks produced what was con-
sidered by many to be their best in
musical comedy.
Tonight, “Down East Folks” will
be repeated. The next play being

debated the 2 3rd in a fast game
yesterday by the score of 3 to 1.
Ledford pitched great ball for the
winners and displayed particularly
fine form when his opponents
threatened to score. He was ably
• seconded by Arnold who caught a
fine game.
For the losers the work of Spear
was good but the support afforded
him was very poor.
The 26th scored in the first in-
ning when Brummel and Arnold
reached first on errors. The next
batter, Horn, came across with a
sharp two bagger scoring two. They
scored again in the next inning on
one hit .and a couple of miscues.
For the 23rd Hemmer displayed
his usual good form. Hagan also
played well.
