A Friday evening program under George H. Downing drew praise as one of the season’s best vaudeville acts. The troupe featured well-known stars and offered a strong one act version of Uncle Tom’s Cabin with John L. Sullivan as Simon Legree drawing enthusiastic applause. Local real estate moves included Joseph and Mrs Williams selling a Burton street lot to Frank Balonn and Mike Len, with James E. Griffith to build a double-block dwellings, and James F.
