eral of the grand commandery Of Kansas.
His commandery drill in the morning was
what caught the boys. He will be a good

by their wives or daughters.

Knights could be seen driving about the

On Friday night, March II, at Main
street theater there will be given grand
benefit for Ed. d. Langley, one OF the
stock actors who has been seriously i'll at
the St. Francis hospital for several weeks.
His actor friends and acquaintance take
this method of raising funds for him, in

expenses while undergoing treatment al
the hospital. The play bill for that night
will be Solomon Isaacs and the price of ad.
