A CARD.
To the Public.

To the Public: ......... ...
In explanation Of the snide perform
ance of play called "kajanka," which
occurred at Turner Opera house, Mon
day evening, April 10. beg to say,
that when [ engaged this company it
was in the best of faith, aud from a
previous knowledge of their past good
reputation, | personally having wit
messed the opening of the original COM
pany at Niblo's Garden, New York
City, three years ago, when there were
$50 people upon the stage in the cast,
and they then had $4,000 worth of
special scenery. The performance was
great success, and the company re-
playing to crowded houses at every
performance. [ have seen them once
since that time at the Columbia Thea
tire, Chicago. This was last season, and
they gave the best of satisfaction and
did a good business. [ sincerely
believed when ] engaged "Kajan-
ka" to play in this city, that the
company were first-class in every res
pect and to my best judgment as
manager of twenty years experience
in the theatrical line, | honestly be-
lieved them worthy Of patronage and
a good house. But it now leaks out
that but three days prior to their snide
performance here land without my
knowledge) they re-organized and
cut the company down, introducing
people of inferior ability, reducing
their scenery, etc., to such an extent
as to cause as a result the worst per-
Torrance have ever seen in my life
It is an imposition not only on the
public. but upon myself personally,
and as q consequence [ have lost
money, as we'll as time and labor, be-
sides having the general dissatisfaction
of my patrons to contend with, which
[ sincerely regret.
There is no rule that local manager
can work by in booking attractions,
only his own judgment in selecting
well-known attractions, and "Kajan-
ka," as well as Chas. L. Davis in calvin
Joslyn" (which played mere some
weeks ago to a packed house,, have al
ways been considered the very best of
attractions in their respective lines.
I believe that the public will diserimin-
ate in this case, and agree with me
that my former attractions played at
the Concordia Opera house have all
been with perhaps one exception) the
very best that could be procured.
The public's obedient servant,

The city marshal of Fort Atkinson
had an exciting time with suspicious
characters as told by the correspondent
from that place in Sundays Sentinel as
follows:
"The city marshal was held up by
two toughs supposed to be cracksmen

found them in an empty house near
the railway track and assisted by two
unarmed citizens drove them TO the
depot where he proposed to assist them
in getting out of town. On getting into
the light of the station lamp they
spread out, drew revolvers and order
ed the marshal to leave, which he did,
but on returning with,belp and firearms

The "kajanka" Humbug.

1t has been puzzle to many to know
what Kajanka" meant, but some are
wiser since Monday evening and are
ready to certify that ''Kajanka" means
'big SELL" and one of the very poorest
performances ever seen on the Water
town boards. Its appearance here at
Turner Opera house was without
single redeeming feature, except the
kindly consideration of the troupe in
Withholding the agony of theaudience
by not beginning the performance un-
til nearly 9 o'clock. A troupe playing
"Kajanka" may have started on the
road all right, but the combination
must have gone to pieces and some
variety stock" lying loose around
Chicago probably got hold Of the debris
and commenced going the rounds of
country towns to guy" lovers of
amusement and take advantage of the
unsophisticated, which was the exper-
fence here Monday evening. Managers
should hit upon some plan whereby
they could be competent to judge of
the merits of company, before I'M
dertaking to play them, and thus pre-
vent audiences from being imposed
upon, as in the case Of the colossal
humbug "Kajanka."

Guy FawRes in England The police
found GASES of revolvers and bombs for

and they say the investigation shows
that the anarchists intended to Snug
gla quantity of dynamite into an under
reund portion of the reichsrath, and
when that body met Oct. 10 to blow the
relchsrath up.
But the reichsrath was not the only
building the anarchists intended to blow
up on Oct, TO- They had plans fully
prepared TO blow up the town hall. In
this building over 1000 people would
have been destroyed had the police not
unearthed the anarchist plot.
