APRoNoUNcED SUCCESS.
The"As You Like Its" Made over 500 for
The Library.


The Library.
The dramatic entertainment given
by the"As You Like IL" clubTuesday
was one Of the most successful home
shows ever given in this city. The
opera house was packed and the
club was able to turn over to the Lii
brary Association 500 as their do
nation to its funds.
The entertainment was in two parts
The first piece "The Chaperon" was
presented by the following cast of
characters:
Miss Morong, principal of Crandon
Hall, Mrs. Tom Long. Mrs. Dyne-
Court, Miss Mary Tyler Nine
Jeanne, French teacher, Miss Georgia
Flack. Nine young lady pupils rep
resented by Misses Edith Boulware,
Belle Moore, Lizzie Long, Mary
Barbour. Richie Burnett, Let Fair
leigh, Willie Rust, Julia Venable
and Daisy Wood, Miriam, the Gypsy,
Mrs. Tom Underwood. Jill, the waif,
Little jamie Graham. Nora. the
maid, Miss Lizzie Mercer. The play
is two act drama and the parts were
all so well sustained that the cast
was what is termed in theatrical cir
cles very seventy balanced" one.
Miss Edith Boulware, as joyce Dyne-
Court; Miss Georgia FIack and Nine
Jeanne, Mrs. Underwood as Miriam
and Miss Lizzie Mercer, as Nora, sus-
tanned the leading parts in a most
creditable manner. Little Miss
jamie Graham was favorite when
ever she appeared and her rendition
OF the child's part was one of
the successes Of the play.
Mrs. Long, Miss Tyler and in
fact all of the young ladies developed
decided histrionic capacity and left
no room for criticism.
Following"The Chaperon" came GA
Box OF Monkeys" which proved to be
roaring farce comedy in two acts.
Mr.. Tom Underwood, as Edward
Rolston, mine owner, and Mr.. Jas.
A. Cook, as Chauncey Oglethorpe, a
Young English lord, were the male
stars, while Mrs Tom Underwood as
Mrs Ondego jones, and Misses Marie
Tyler and Edith Boulware as the
sweethearts Of the Young men, all de
vided the honors with the young men.
In this play Miss Marie Tyler
found an opportunity for some
specially work, and gave a song
and dance that brought down the
house and forced her to respond to a
tumultous encore. During the first
play, Miss Lizzie Mercer made a sim
ular hit as Nora, the Irish girl
Space will not allow us to say all
the nice things ithe young ladies de-
serve, but they made such a success
all round that some of the neighbor-
ing towns have invited them to make
engagements and they will propably

MRS. R. C WATKINS DEAD.
Sad Death of Former HopkiDsviIIe Girl.
at Paducah

Sad Death of Former HOpkiDsvIIIe Cir
at Paducah
Mrs. Porter Lowry Watkins, tn
young and beautiful wife of Mr. RusI
G. Watkins, died Wednesday after
noon at Paducah, OF fever. She leave!
an infant about two weeks old. Also
a little girl about two years of age.
Mrs. Watkins was the only child OF
the late Mr.. w. A. Lowry, who died
at his home in this city little more
than year ago.
She was married about three years
ago to Mr.. r. @. Watkins, who
was then travelling freight agent of
the N. N. & M. ", and now has a
similar position with the Illinois Cen
trail road. She was barely out of her
teens at the time of her marriage and
had not reached her 18th birthday
when she died. Her death is one of
peculiar sadness and the bereaved
husband and two motherless babes
have the heartfelt sympathies of,many
friends.
Less than year ago Mrs Watkins
came into possession of the handsome
fortune left her by her deceased
father, she was happily married and
enjoying the best of health and the
future appeared to be all brightness
for her. Her husband was rapidly
rising in his calling as railroad man,
and they had just begun housekeep-
ing in their new home in Paducah, to
which place they had but recently re
moved.
When the little boy arrived few
days ago, their cup of happiness
seemed to be full to OVERLOOKING. The
young mother dictated letters to her
friends here telling of the event that
brought joy to the hearts OF the fond
parents, but the next news was a sad
summons to her step-mother to come
at once, as dangerous fever was
threatening the life of Mrs Watkins.
Mrs. Lowry fastened to her bed
side Sunday and was with her when
the end came three days later. All
that love and care aud medical skill
could do was done for the sufferer,
but gradually even the faintest hopes
We're crushed until all was over.
The body was brought to this city
yesterday aud the funeral services
will be held at the family residence at
925 South Main Street at 10 o'clock !
this morning, and the interment will
follow at Hopewell Cemetery
