PETER STUTH.
Mr. Will Culp, sou of Mr. Hen
ry Culp, of Princeton, died this
week. He had been qnite a suf
ferer for some time with Brights
disease. He was a splendid young
man, and his death out a shadow
over the community,
they had folded their tent* and
silently stole away. This is prutty
tuff on the mau that has to come
across, and we have not heard of
any money being turned back to
to the poor unfortunates who gave
their money to sea something and
‘-get it in the neck." But it it
somewhat of a consolation to read
| about it being poor after they and
your money are gone. It might
be remarked here that these poor
stranded minstrels did not get all
the money—there was some left
in Athens. But that’s the way of
the world—as long as the other
fellow don’t kiek we see no reason
why those financially interested
should. The way to db is to
know these things before hand
and keep them away—not let them
oome, take in the money of the
unwary and then say, “it wu a
poor show, gentlemen, infaottbe
worse that ever struck the town.’’
The unfortunate man who spent
his money is sore enough without
being ooneoled with the foot that
he wu duped into seeing a poor
•how. Our opinion is that those
who attended would not follow
them to some other oity uow—but
what they wanted to know wu
that it wu a poor show before
they bad to pay so much per, u
they bad doubtieu seen in the pa
pers before it came that it wu a
most original spectacular -perfor-
except «■* guaranteed to be u rep
resented.
