The Great Hermann, the most
expert adept in the art of magic the
world has ever seen, will amuse,
mystify and delight theatre goers Of
this city at Concordia Opera house,
April 18th. Hermann IS a name
synonymous with all that is myster-
ious aud awe-inspiring. The most
mystifying and incomprehensible feats
of magic are performed by him with
a charm of manner and a running fire
of wit that would have a confirmed
cynic into admiration. For his pre-
sent engagement in this city he
brings many novelties that have never
been seen in this country. Several
sensational illustrations presented by
him have set all America talking.
John H Warner, one Of the old
est insurance men in the state, died
at his home in Milwaukee Saturday
night, aged 90 years. Mr.. Warner
was for twenty years state agent OF
the Insurance Company of North
America and of the Philadelphia I'M
derwriters. In his official capacity he
had often visited Watertown and was
well known to the insurance men OF
this city, by whom, as well as by par
ties for whom he had adjusted losses in
which his companies we're interested,
he is very kindly remembered as
true-hearted man, just and honorable
in all his dealings, He is survived
by his widow, two sons ana two
daughters. Mr.. Warner was treasurer
of the Wisconsin Field Mems club and
also served two years as president Of
the State Board of Fire Underwriters.
The Great Hermann, the re-
nowned magician whose experience in
magic stretches from childhood over
many years and through many lands,
will appear in this city shortly. His
reputation as a prestidigitateur is
world wide; perfect king OF NEGRO
nancy; he stands alone. unrlvalled
and supreme ~ all the great capitals
of the world. No such legerdemain,
no such startling illusions or kindred
feats had ever been seen upon the
stage until the star of "Herrmann"
blazed forth in the theatrical world. |
His tours have been a series of Ova-
lions and positive sensations, aud the
coming of Hermann means more than
the announcement of the usual theat-
rical company which tours the land.
Not only has Hermann achieved an
artistic success, but he is also social
lion. He has appeared before many
of the crowned heads of the world, who
have shown him many courtesies and
showered him with honors. Such
career comes to few men. Herrmann's
performance in this city will be in his
happiest vein. All his best tricks are
on the programme to be presented
here, Thursday, April 18th, at Con-
cordia Opera house. Seats on sale at
