les and seemingly inexhaustible fund
of humor. He has traversed the whole
field OF comedy from the old standard
English works to the bright, bubbling
skits of the present day, and lent grace
and beauty to every part he has ever
essayed. AS we write we recall how
keenly we relished his portrayal Of
Piticus Green in Hazel Kirk, p" as seen
with the original Madison Square
company several years ago, and yet his
work then drops out of sight as com
pared with his latest effort This is
doubtless owing to the fact that in this
piece he is given greater latitude 10y
the author. Certain it is he gives d
charming performance; one that must
be classed with the really excellent
entertainments that have been seen
here. The play rises above the order
of farces and is withal, both reasonable
wholesome, and very comical.

by Ruth Russell, aged ~ years, who is
publisher, editor, printer and devil, and
to whom belongs the honor of being the

The man who can succeed in making
the public laugh is public benefactor,
and should be recognized as such. Mr..
John Dillon has been engaged in this
laudable purpose for great many
years, and has beyond a doubt, pro-
duced more genuine laughter than any
man on the American stage. Years of
experience have taught him the grade
of comedy most appreciated, and he has
discovered by hard work, coupled with
wonderful natural ability, how to reach
the highest plane. In this he has sue
ceeded admirably. AS he advances In
age, he improves in the delineation Of
the characters he portrays. The person
who cannot enjoy a laugh at Mr.. Dillon
has no appreciation OF humor in him,
for he is great comedian, graceful, re.
| fined and dignified.

WAS A BETTER WEEK.
There Was More r ain Last Week For the
Kansas Crops

There Was More Rain Last Week For the
Kansas Crops.
Last week was much better one for
the Kansas crops according to the crop
bulletin issued by the Kansas weather
service
Fair rains have fallen over the greater
part of the state with good rains in Nc
Pherson, Reno Harvey, Sedgwick and
Cowley, and large part of the Eastern
division, and very good rains in Atchi-
son, Leavenworth. Douglas, johnson and
Franklin. The least rainfall occurred
through the central counties from Usage
and Coffey to the west line of the state.
The temperature has been much above
the normal in the eastern division, but
more nearly normal in the western.
In the eastern counties, from Neosho
and Crawford to the north line of the
state, it has been a fine growing week
and the rains have enabled crops to 60
ahead of the chinch lug. Wheat in the
eastern part Of Usage and western part
of Franklin is finer probably than in
other parts of the division Cut worms
have become injurious in Wilson and
Elk. Fruit still gives good promise.
Reports from the middle third say that
all crops in the northern counties are in
good condition and from Mcpherson to
Cowley they have improved decidedly
during the last days of the week. Fruit
has been dropping badly in some districts
from the dry weather, but is doing better
since the rains. Much corn remains I'M
terminated because of the dryuess of the
SOIL
In the western division grains of all
kinds are in good shape in the northern
counties, though a much larger acreage
has been put in corn than for years.
Grass is doing finely generally aud stock
is thriving on it. Wheat is doing no
good in the central or southern counties,
while in the southwestern small grains
and grass re at a standstill
