Y. M. c. A. ENTERTAINMENT.
First of the Series Given in Harmonic
Hall Last Evening

First of the Series Given in Harmonic
Hall Last Evening.
The series of entertainments under
the auspices Of the Y M. G. A, was
opened last evening with recitations by
Miss Marion Wilson and musical selec-
tions by Mr.. Whitaker and Mrs.
Beach. Miss Wilson's selections were
well received and greatly appreciated
by the audience, especially the ones
about white trash and the description
of a play by a bootblack. The former
was about a woman of the class known
as white trash, who is supposed to be
giving tea to a neighbour. She has nu-
merous children, among whom are Will
lie Bryan, Billy Mckinley, Mark Hanna,
George Dewey, and others, who are
fighting with each other all the time.
The latter gives an idea of what it Is
in a play that interests an ordinary
bootblack. Mr.. Schneeloch who was to
have rendered several solos during the
evening, was unable to be present, as
he has accepted a position as soloist in
enc of the New York churches. Mrs.
Beach, who took Mr.. Schneeloch's
place, rendered a pretty violin SOLO The
piano selections by Mr.. Whitaker We're
also well received

ten" is the verdict which has been CIV
en- in the case of Secret Service" Will
liam Gillette's play, which comes to the
Grand opera house tonight, tomorrow
night and Saturday night, with matinee
/ Saturday. Like Held by the Enemy, -
which was the first successful Ameri-
! can war play, Secret Service" has an
entirely serious purpose and is drama
from beginning to end. 1t utilizes some
| incidents in connection with the siege
! of Richmond, when that city was the
Confederate capital, and making OF
| them war background that simply
/ suggests the fields of war without re-
vealing them, but still bristles with bay
onets and is given a fascinating hue by
the presence of military uniforms, thus
providing a semi-historic setting for
perhaps the greatest story of the heart
ever written. 1t is the old, theme-love
but oh! so charmingly told and with
such winsome novelty of manner that
the auditor is made to feel that this is
the first time such a phychical history
has been told. When seen here last sea-
son at the Grand opera house Secret
Service" packed the house to its utmost
capacity at every performance. Secure
seats at once. Regular prices.
1.-The Girl I Loved in Sunny Tennes-
see" was never more aptly reproduced
than in Lee Arthurs play of southern,
Victims of Tennessee" 1t is truly
beautiful story, beautifully told. This
play abounds with picturesque scenery,
startling climaxes and brilliant effects.
All the scenes are laid in Tennessee,
which provides plenty Of room for good
material The author has taken advan-
tage of the knowledge impaired to him
during a long soiourn in the state, and
therefore "We-Uns' is play of to-day.
1t will be seen at the Grand opera house
next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
night with matinee Saturday Seats
now selling. Regular prices.

OPPOSE CUBAN LIBERTY.
Business Men Tell Wood He Goes
Too Fast

Havana, June 11-Of late Governor
General Wood has had many callers,
among them lawyers, bankers. mer-
chants and even two members of the
former cabinet, who have taken the
position that the United States govern
ment is going ahead too fast in the d.
rectiOn of granting independence to
Cuba. Those who take this ground as
sign it as the reason for their decision
not to join in the coming elections.
They point out that there is not sin
gle candidate in the island who is not
a professional politician and they argue
that to turn Cuba over to men of this
class would mean her absolute ruin.
These visits and statements were the
result of an interview with General
Wood published by the Discussion, in
which he was reported as saying that,
in all probability, constitutional con-
vention would be called in September
next, consisting of all the mayors
elected.
