MISS REYNOLDS AS A STAR.
Actor owen Talks enthusiastically over
the Kenosha Lady's Prospects.

Actor owen Talks Enthusia sticallv over
the Kenosha Lady's Prospects.
A reporter of the NEWS dropped in
on Actor William Owen Wednesday
night, and as neither of them had
" nothin' else to do" they spent a
delightful hour talking of the prospects
of Miss Reynolds, who will shortly
make her debut as leading lady in Mr..
Owens Company. The actor lit a
cigarette and making himself perfectly
comfortable said: Yes, Miss Reynolds
will make an actress, and what's more
she will make a great actress. She is
a clever girl, and the cleverest debut
ante have ever met. The stage today
is very exacting, and demands more
than women with pretty faces. 1t de-
mands women of brains and women
with tact as we'll as talent. The sue
cessful actress must have more to rec
ommend her today than ever before.
Miss Reynolds has every element OF
success. She brings with her not only
fine stage appearance, but also a
great mine of natural talent and inge-
nuity. which will demand success. Her
early training has been good, and her
recent work under Mr.. Mcconnell has
been of inestimable value. She has
true dramatic feeling, and her first
appearance in Kenosha will be a big
surprise for Kenosha play goers. The
usual timidity and stage fright finds no
place in her makeup, and she appears
at rehearsals as one who had been a
professional for years. Ease and eXpe-
rience has made wonderful change IN
her voice and manners.
AS a reader Miss Reynolds was a
success, but as an actress her work is
doubly praiseworthy. The reader only
presents a subjective view to her hear.
ers, but as an actress she must be the
object herself. Her voice is responsive
to the feelings. Naturally low AND
musical it cannot but make good i'm
preston. In every part Miss Reynolds
has shown an aptitude rarely seen in
novices. Her comedy touches are
admirable, and she assumes the heavy
roles with the dignity and quiet reserve
seldom seen except in artists of years
experience. She puts interest into hel
work and gives every part, be it small
or great, a personality as delightful as
as it is original. O, yes, Miss Reynolds
is all right, and you can depend upOr
it she will make a great hit"
Mr.. Owen also spoke as if he were
greatly pleased with his entire com
pany and seems to anticipate very
successful season.

LOST A WATCH.
Joseph Buschman Has Valuable Time
Piece Stolen.

Joseph Buschman Has a Valuable Time
Piece Stolen.
Joseph Buschman, a laborer employ
edat the brick yard, was so unfortunate
as to have a gold watch removed from
his clothes Friday morning. When
Buschman went to work he hung his
coat and vest on a nail near the outer
door and when he returned at noon the
timepiece was gone and no trace of it
has been found. 1t was thought it had
been stolen by some boys who are in
the habit of loafng around the place,
and one of them was taken in charge
by the police. However, no evidence
could be found against him and he was
released It is now thought that the
watch was taken by one of the tramps
who make the brickyard rendezvous.
The police are investigating the
matter and even if the real cullrit is
not discovered the case will lead to an
exit of large number of summer resi-
dents in the bricky ard quarters.
Mr.. Buschman valued the watch at
S25.

THEIR LAST CONCERT.
Windsor Band Will Probably Give no
More Park Concerts.

More Park Concerts.
The Windsor band gave their regular
concert in Central park Friday night
and from all indications it will be the
last concert given by this band. The
present director has not given entire
satisfaction and he will leave for his
home in Buffalo today or tomorrow, and
he said last night that he did not know
what would be the future of the organ
ization. The leaving of the director
will not be of great interest to many
people in the city, but if the concerts
are to be discontinued there are a
number of curious individuals who
would like very much to know what is
to become of the money which has been
collected by the band for the park
concerts. 1t has been reported that it
has been divided among the members.
This is as it should be, but some plan
should be arranged to furnish park
concerts for the remainder of the seas
on.
The people have enjoyed these must
cal evenings very much and an effort is
being made to have the JacOby military
band fill out the season of its late rival.

An Eye For Business.


They call him Sloppy and he is usual
ly given credit for being only half
bright, but this same youth showed
Friday evening that he had an eye foI
business. When z. G.. Simmons horses
fell into the harbor and was rescued
later by bystander, the half witted
boy conceived a shrewd business
scheme at once and going to Mr.. Sim
mons declared that he had saved his
horse and was rewarded with a neat
sum of money. Soon after, however,
the error was discovered and Sloppy
was forced to disgorge. The citizens
of the town should encourage such
business enterprise.

WILL SEARCH FOR CHICoRA
Captain Napier Will Try and Locate the
Lost Steamer.

st. Joseph, Mich, Aug. "a. Capt
Edward Napier, the veteran mariner
who will undertake the task of locat
ing the lost Chicora, arrived here this
evening from Chicago. The Chicora
went down in Lake Michigan on Jan.
81, 1895, and although the owner has
sent two searching expeditions which
have failed in their missions, Captain
Napier, as we'll as many we'll posted
marine men of this city, thinks the
wreck can be located if the work is
carried out in systematic way, such
as the plans of the present searchers
With the careful study of each and
every condition of the lost boat, the
weather, velocity of the wind at varl-
GUS times, the speed of the boat and
where the first wreckage was dis
covered, Captain Napier has based his
idea as to just in what territory the
lost vessel can be found. He will use
three tugs in the search, the front and
rear tugs about 400 feet apart, while a
third tug will place buoys which will
enable the searchers to know just what
territory has been dragged. Captain
Napier has stated that he is sure the
wreck lies southwest of South Haven,
that while the Chicora was making for
St. Joseph she became disabled in a
binding snowstorm, gradually worked
toward the shore, and without power
got caught in the trough of the sea and
vent down. He also stated the we'll
established fact that wreckage below
forty feet of water, never rises, such as
did the wreckage from the ChicOra,
and therefore she must lie near shore
in shallow water. The work of drag
ging will begin in earnest about the
middle of next week. 1t is said the
work will be done under contract with
Graham & Morton, the owners, and
Captain Napier will RI 3eive percent
age of the value of the property found,
if successful in locating the long lost
wreck.
Captain Napier is we'll known in this
city, as he was formerly in charge of
the tug Mcclellan.

VALUABLE HORSE DROWNED
Team Backs Into the sHarbor While the
Driver is Unloading Freight.


A very peculiar accident occurred at
the docks of the steamer Paxton about
5 o'clock Friday afternoon which re-
suited in the death of very valuable
horse belonging to the North Western
Wire Mattress Company. Thomas
Finnin, an employe of the Company,
had hauled a load of freight to the
warehouse and while he was unloading
it he fastened the lines .around stake
to secure the horses. In short time,
however, the animals became fright
ened and began to back and before
the driver noticed it the horses were
both over the docks in the water of the
harbor. One of the horsesgeasily dis
entangled itself and with the assistance
of a bystander soon succeeded in swim
ming to shore near the life saving sta
ton. The other animal was not so for
tunate, as the heavy wagon which also
went into the water, pressed him down
to the bottom and he was drowned be-
fore assistance arrived. The dead
horse was taken out by the life saving
crew. The animal lost was considered
the most valuable horse owned by the
Company.

MINISTER sEwALL's LAST REPORT
Documents of Historic Interest Sent
to the state Department.

10 the state department.
The State Department has received the
last report from Mr.. Sewall in his capacity
of United States minister to Hawaii. The
mail included several documents that will
be interesting from an historical point of
view. The minister transmits to the de-
partment the formal acceptance by Presi-
dent Dole of the act of the United States
Congress, annexing the islands TO the
United States He also handed to Mr..
Sewall the treaty of annexation thar had
been ratified by the Hawaiian legislature
but which failed to receive the approval of
the United States Senate. There was no
occasion to turn over this document, but it
is presumed that Mr.. Dole did so to COM
plete the record.
There are some claims outstanding
against the late government of Hawaii,
mainly on account of British subjects and
the adjustment of these will be a matter
for future consideration. Among the IS
sues satisfactorily closed, according to Mr.
SeWaHS report, was the claim of the jap
anese government against Hawaii for the
illegal detention and return to Japan of
certain Japanese coolie laborers who were
excluded under a Hawaiian immigration
law framed after that of the United States
Chinese exclusion act. The amount of the
claim was about $4,000, and almost the
last act of the expiring Hawaiian govern
ment was to discharge this obligation
which came perilously near involving the
United States and Japan in difficulty about
a year ago.

LANDED PEARY'S PARTY.
The Hope Returns to St. Johns From
Her Greenland Trip.

The steamer Hope arrived at st. Johns,
N. F.. Saturday night from her trip to
Greenland, whittier she carried the Peary
exploring expedition. After leaving Sgd
ney, c. B., their first landing was at Cape
York, where natives were expected to be
found. The party was disappointed, how
ever, all the natives having left. Without
any delay the expedition then sailed for
Snow Pocket bay, but here again they were
disappointed. They then proceeded %
Saunders Island, finding the natives there
in poor condition, they having had an ex-
ceptior ally bad winter, snowfalls which
lasted for weeks forcing them to quit their
old haunts in quest of food. The natives
We're delighted to see Lieut.. Peary, and
swarmed all over the ship.
The Hope took on board a number of
Esquin aux and sailed for Whale Sound
but owing to the heavy ice pack was un-
able to get In. She came out all right
though she received some bad scrapes The
party then decided to return to Saunders
Island, and spent a fortnight there, during
seal were obtained. Then the Hope pro-
ceeded for Foulke Fiord. She met the
Wfndward on the way. The latter is a
poor ship for this work, being unable to
steam to any advantage the Hope leaving
her far behind on every occasion when
they left port together. At Foulke Fiord
the Hope parted with Lieut.. Peary and
sailed south on the 18th instant, the Wind
ward leaving at the same time for Sheard
Osborne Fiord, where Peary will make his
headquarters during the winter. Besides
the sixty walrus. sixty dogs and ten Es-
Quimaux, men and women, were taken
north. Capt. Bartlett reports all well.
