THE EMERALD ISLE.
A FINE ENTERTAINMENT GIVEN AT
RHODE OPERA HOUSE.
MANY PRETTY VIEWS SHOWN
Mr. sou1e. Of Chicago. Gave an Interest
Ing Lecture on His Travels in Ireland,
and Large Crowd Applaud-T. w.
Reilly Makes Short Address.

One of the most enjoyable entertain
ments ever given in Kenosha was
given at the Rhode opera house Friday
night under the auspices of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians. The entertain
ment was an Irish entertainment from
start to finish and the feature of the
evening was the exhibition Of number
of very beautiful views of Ireland, the
Gem of the Ocean. The entertainment
drew one of the largest crowds that
ever gathered in the opera house and
every one was more than delighted by
the evenings entertainment. The
program was opened with very
pretty piano solo by Miss Agnes
Cleary, which was followed by Mrs.
Clifford Dexter, who sang in very
charming manner the pretty Irish lore
ballad, Come Back to Erin"
After the solo Mr.. Soule introduced
his beautiful views of Ireland and gave
a very pleasing description of them.
The lecture was in the way of a story
of voyage and carried the auditors
from their homes in KenOsha to the
landings at Cork in the Emerald Isle.
The views oil proved exceedingly inter
estiDg, and wandering among the hills
and valleys, the ruined castles and
noteworthy buildings, the speaker
showed that he had seen the beautiful
and historic places of ireland and it
was pleasure to hear the splendid
descriptions given of the places. To
many in the audience the pictures were
more than representations of beautiful
places; they brought back memories of
homes which had been left years be-
fore. The Barney castle with it's
barney stone was one of the most in
teresting pictures, but the beautiful
scenes taken among the lakes of Kill
larney also called forth great applause.
Among historic pictures none were
more interesting than the one of the
b ONE of Sir Walter Raleigh, and in
connection with the picture the
speaker told several stories of the
noted explorer which quite captivated
the audience.
Winding in and out among the lakes
and rivers, the mountains and the
plains, the speaker led his hearers to
every part of the island, and presented
to their vision over a hundred views,
showing the most beautiful spots in the
entire island.
During the presentation of the views
Miss Sara Ward sang vocal solo, en-
titled, " The Lakes of Killarney" and
Frank Swift made distinct hit by
singing a song entitled The Meeting
of the Waters
After a piano solo by Miss Avis
Quinn, Hon. j. M. Bailey, OF Mil
waukee, state organizer of the A. O. Fl.
was introduced and made a short ad-
dress, which was greatly appreciated.
The entertainment was great finan-
cial success, and the money thus SO
cured will be used toward the purchase
of a heating plant for st. James
church.

simple Calculation.

There is very simple rule for find
ing the average number of years which
persons Of any given age may expect
TO live. If the present age be deducted
from 80, two-thirds of the remainder
is the answer required. The result is
not absolutely accurate, but it is near
enough. For Instance, man aged
20 might, by this rule, expect to live
40 years longer, which is just what
the latest actuarial tables give. At 40
the expectation of life works out at
nearly 81 years, while the tables give
it as over % years. At so the above
rule allows just over IL years, and
the tables show a little less.

Rome Lightning Rods.

The reason why ships are not struck
by lightning is attributed to the gen.
eral use which is now made of wire
rope for rigging purposes, as well as to
the fact that the bulls of the ships
are usually constructed of iron Or steel
Thus the whole ship forms an excel
lent and continuous conductor, by
means of which the electricity is led
away into the ocean before it has time
to do any serious damage.
