“The Old Homestead.”—Wherever
Joshua Whitcomb’s name is mentioned
now, there seems to be a strain awakened
like the far off bells of New England. He
brought the smell of the sweet clover into
our native firma, and set up there the
New England home with all the precious
memories. Denman Thompson might
have ransacked the world and he could
not have found a theme that would touch
so many American hearts as the “Old
Homestead.” In deference to the request
of managers and theatre-goers from all
parts of the land, Mr. Thompson has
equipped a first-class traveling company to
play the “Old Homestead” in the best
theatres in the country. He has person
ally assumed the responsibility of the
organization, has stage-managed its re
hearsals most carefully, has engaged the
best company attainable, and pledges him
self to leave nothing undone that will
insure the traveling organization being a
first-class one. The members of the com
pany were selected after careful considera
tion, and are artists of ability and experi
ence in the quaint New England characters
portrayed by each. Musically the organi
zation is strong, as a carefully selected
and excellent double male quartette is
carried. The “Old Homestead” will be
seen at Springer Opera House Monday
evening.
Off for Florida.—Messrs. Henry
Ragland, John Cantey, W. C. Guerry, J.
M. Lokey, and Ben Perry, of Russell

hunt. The party will leave for Florida by
boat this morning, and expect to be absent
some time. They anticipate having a big
time.

A SAD CASE.
A FATHER FINDS HIS DAUGHTER IN A
HOUSE OF ILL REPUTE.
A sad case vraa brought to light yester
day.
Christmas night a gentleman who lives
near Carrollton reached the city, and yes
terday morning his sixteen-year-old daugh
ter was found in a house of ill repute.
The wayward girl was carried to the sta
tion house, having refused to return home
with her father, who was well nigh heart
broken at the shameful conduct of his
heartless, erring child.
Mayor Dozier earnestly advised the girl
to go home with her father, but she was
obstinate, declaring that she would never
return. The gentleman announced his
intention of taking the girl with him, by
force, if no other means would prevail and
she was taken to the noon train for At
lanta in a hack accompanied by her father
and two policemen.
The Mayor ordered the police to notify
houses of ill-repute in the city not to give
shelter to the girl under penalty of heavy
punishment, and if she should escape her
father, it is not likely that she will return
to Columbus.
The girl left her home last August,
since which time her father has been
making diligent search for her. She
stated yesterday that she came to Colum
bus only a month ago.
The father of the girl has the appear
ance of being an honest, intelligent man,
and the grief he manifested at the down-
■ fall of his daughter was indeed sad to be-
i hold.
