AMONG THE BREAKERS
An interesting drama in two acts will
be given at the Crawford opera house next
Thursday, November q, for the benefit of
ST. Johns church. The ladies of the
Guild are anxious to have windows put in
the new church, the handsome structure
on the corner of Third street and Topeka
avenue, d building which. when completed,
will be credit to the beautiful city of
Wichita. The proceeds of next Thursday
night will be added to the funds that are
already IN the treasury, which the ladies
have worked hard for in giving entertain
ments this fall. All who are taking part
in this drama are deeply interested in the
object of the entertainment and the play
itself. They have been at hard work two
or three weeks During the evening,
probably before the play begins choice
vocal selections will be given by Mrs. j. r.
Moore and Mrs. E. p Hovey. A gentle
man was once heard to remark that 1T
is worth the admission fee to any enter
tainment simply to see Mrs. Moore walk
on the STAGE And then to hear her sweet
voice, which Wichita people have been de-
prived of for So long a time it will indeed
be treat. 1t is needless to say anything
of Mrs. Hovey's voice, as all know its
power, sweetness and cultivation. The
ladies are doing all in their power to make
this entertainment a success. The tickets
are selling rapidly.
ROBERT DOWNING.
Robert Downing will open his coming
engagement with "Virginius," a part this
truly great actor is peculiarly fitted for.
A special matinee will be given on Satur-
day afternoon, and the engagement will
close with production of Mr.. Downing 8
new play, The White Pilgrim" An ex-
change says:
Mr. Downing has in many features, re-
considered the ''NirgniuS" he offered here
during his engagement last January. He
has given the text deeper significance and
has better defined the quiet force and the
delicate subteties of the character. 1t is
indeed a work which demands a touch
upon nearly every key of the actors versa
tile powers. Pathos, frenzy, grief and
despair must be brought out, in bold and
distinct colorS.
Tickets viii he on sale Tuesday.
GILMORE -
The great musIcai festiYals>given by p.
S. Gilmore in the east have been contin-
ued westward to the coast, and on the re-
