"HBARTs ARE TRUMPS"

"Hearts Are Trumps," the magnifi-
Gently produced re1odrama which is
running at McVicker's Theatre in
Chicago, has made one of the most EN-
platic successes of the season and bids
fair to eclipse the record made by
sporting Life' or '"The Great Ruby
both of which plays were produced at
McVicker's during the regular season.
The new play is given such lavish
setting and the company which IS
playing it is such a splendid organiza-
ton the critics have been extreme in
their praise of the piece and Mr..
Frohman's production.
Howbert Bi11man, of the Record,
said: cit is the most perfect produc-
ton of me1odrarna ever brought to
the city,
L. H. Bickford in the Inter Ocean
said Hearts are Trunps has emotion,
excitement, extraordinary staging and
is thoroughly well played. This is the
me1odrama of me1odramas''.
Maj. Mcconnell, of the Chronicle,
said ''It is one of the most Ella borate
and interesting productions ever seen
here''.
Tiffany Blake in the Journal said:
<'Some of the most effective examples
of stage realism seen on the local stage
are leading incidents of the play. It
is admirably played, The other
critics followed in somewhat the same
strain.
This praisei is assured1y we'll deserved
for a more massive production it would
be hard to find or a me1odrama with a
more interesting story. The interest
begins with the rising of the curtin on
the first act, and from that moment
through all of the fourteen scenes
there is a constant increase of excite
ment and wonder until the descent of
the avalanche in the last act brings the
play to a close with the chief villain a
mang1ed corpse in the valley under
meath the precipiCe. In the. course of
this pilgrimage the spectators have
seen the great reception hall at Oak

IN ANOTHER ROLE.
Mission in Milwaukee is Named for z.
G. Simmons on Account of His
Generosity.
MR.. SIMMONS LIKES THE JOKE
Colored Man Comes From Milwaukee and
Presents Kenosna's Benefactor with
American Beauty Roses.

When Z. O.. Simmons offered to pre-
sent a soldiers monument to Kenosha
county soldiers and people he probably
was not aware of the honor that such
a gift would bring, but since it was
dedicated, he is beginning to find out.
Friday afternoon a gentleman, whose
color was very much like the night,
and whose clothes reminded of the cake
walk, and whose shirt front shone like
the sun at monday, arrived in this
city. He carried with him two large
telescopes and bag. He went at once
to the home of Mr.. Simmons and ran
across the lawn to meet the gentleman
of the house, who was seated on the
veranda. He made profound bow SO
low that the diamonds in his shirt front
reflected the glory of the setting sun
against the windows.
After the bow he began to unpack
his telescopes, and with another bow
quite as elaborate, and with a speech
that would have done honor to Ken
lucky moonshiner, he presented Mr..
Simmons with a magnificent bunch of
American beauty roses, as token of
the high esteem in which the Kenosha
man is held by the co1ored people of
wisconsin Afterward there were
more American beauties for other
members Of the family Of Mr.. Sim
mons, and when the flower parade was
over, the co1ored man, who is an editor,
handed Mr.. Simmons copy of his
paper containing the pictures of the
participants in the ceremonies attend
ant on the unwilling of the Soldiers
monument.
But this was not all the honor to be
given After the paper had been ad-
nired, the co1ored man took the breath
of the auditors away by announcing
that, on account of the generous acts
of Mr., Simmons, it had been decided
to name the Milwaukee Mission in his
honor.
This announcement was made by
presenting Mr.. Simmons with the fol-
lowing card, which tells the whole
story of the mission:

OBITUARY.
TELEPHONE PA BLACK.
4 rings.

On Wednesday morning, May 23rd,
shortly after twelve o'clock, Miss
Maria E. Marsh, of this city, passed
quietly away, at the age Of "a years.
She had been an invalid for several
years. The end was peaceful but un-
expected.
The deceased was born in Pompey,
New York, Aug. II, 1916. She was
the daughter of Luman Marsh, who
came to Southport, now Kenosha, in
1916, and settled in the town of Paris.
For the past thirty-five years her home
has been with her sister, Mrs. M. H.
Petit, of this city. Miss Marsh was a
devoted member of the Episcopal
church, and as long as her health per
mitted she was an earnest and ardent
worker for the good of the church and
its people. In her early years she was
very active in charitable work and
sociaI life, and during the Civil war
she was one of" the prominent women
to give her aid and help to the soldier
boys.
The funeral occurred from St. Mat
thew's church Friday afternoon, the
Rev. Mayron, Rector of Kemper hall,
officiating. The remains were laid to
rest in the family lot in the city ceme-
terry.
She leaves two sisters, Mrs. M. H.
Petit, of Kenosha; and Mrs. Peter H.
Wood, of Milwaukee; two brothers,
Daniel and Remsen Marsh, of Lisbon,
North Dakota.

CIRCUIT COURT.
Few of the Cases that VIII Come UP at
the Coming Term.

A Few of the Cases that VIII Come UP at
the Coming Term.
From all indications the coming
June term of the Circuit Court will be
busy one. The most important case
to be taken up will be the old fight be-
tween the State Medical Board and DIR.
Paul Ma1mstrom. The case has hung
fire for several months and the attor-
neys are now ready to make hard
fight when it comes to make an argu-
ment before the court.
Another case which will cause con-
siderable interest is the case of Lillian
Seery VS.. George Leet. This is the
last of the famous Seery SANDER cases
and on this account it will arouse unu-
sua1 interest.
Many other cases are being noticed
for trial at the law term, among them
being the following cases:
Mary Mischo VS.. John Mischo
Divorce.
Louise Lindermann VS.. Carl Linder-
mann. Divorce.
John W. Hart VS.. Mae V. Hart.

While Delivering Papers Today,
Willie Grosvenor, son of Mrs. e
Grosvenor, was badly bitten by dog
belonging to Joseph Binnemann at an

serious.
The owner of the dog lives at the

ing this poin1 the dog ran out Of the
yard and without any warning planted
his teeth Ia the fatty portion of his leg
The boy was jerked off his bicycle and
so badly frightened that he lay IN The
road in a dazed condition until he was
discovered by pedestrians. He was
taken to the Office of DR.. Pugh ia a
carriage and the wounds were cauter-
lied. It is not as yet known whether

The dog is said to be a vicious ami
NAL and it is reported that it has bit
other boys in the past few months
The case was reported to the police and
