Secretary p Fl. Mcintosh called
at this Office this forenoon to correct
any false impression which may have
gone out by reason Of the item pub
lished Tuesday evening to the effect
that the Y. M. G.. A. would be COM
PEELED to give up its building plans. He
says such an impression got out some
way, but that it was not strictly true.
He stated that but very few of those
who we're depositors in the Dan Head
& co. bank had let their contributions
to this work go, SO that the prospect of
a new building is just as bright as it
ever was. There is to be big meet
ing in September he stated, which was
called for the purpose of giving the
movement starting boom.
-Kenosha was entertained by
another of Gustav Frohman's companies
Tuesday evening, in Sowing the
Wind" Rhode opera house could not
have held many more than were in the
building. 1t was apparent sometime
before the show night that there was
to be a crowd present from the fact
that before noon Of Tuesday almost
every desirable seat in the house had
been taken The company was good
one and the play was all that could be
desired. Every part in the performance
was taken by competent actor or ac-
tress. Miss Meta Maynard, as Rosa :
mond, did nobly in her part as girl
who had risen in the world against a
tide of such opposition as only those
born in loWly circumstances ever know.
AS a lover Marshall Stedman as Ned
Annesley was very good. His part was
a noble one and he carried it very we'll
indeed. Percy Sharpe as Mr.. Braba-
zon was up to standard, as was also j..
Edwin Brown, as Mr.. Watkin, the
bachelor. The william in the play was
Lord Petworth, which part was taken
| by Walter Greene. The william seldom
gets any plaudits, but the part was
we'll taken. James Eddy as Sir Rich
ard Cursitor was extremely horsey.
All the other parts were we'll taken, so
that on the whole there was little to be
desired Manager Rhode is to be con
graduated on the success of the affair,
and citizens of Kenosha are to be COM
mended for their generous support.
Let this not be the last. Bring on
