THE TANNING OF THE SHREW
AT the Opera House by Chas.
B. Hanford.

Shakespeare's plays have stood
the test of centuries, aid yet when
| comparisons are made some of the
efforts of the master playwright
are judged much better than others.
Among his lighter works it is the
general opinion that 1.-The Tanning
Of the Shrew' is entitled to first
position. This sparkling piece is
almost the only one of Shakespeare
comedies with a regular plot and a
downright moral. II is full Of bus
tie, animation and rapidity of ac-
tion. Petruchio is a mad man in
bis senses, a very honest fellow who
hardly speaks word Of truth and
succeeding in all his tricks and i'm
postures. The situation of poor
Katherine worn out by bis inces-
SAINT prosecutions becomes almost
as pitabie as ludicrous. The learned
critics say that Petruchio is a char
acter which all husbands should
study, Be that as il may, The
Tanning of the Shrew" is undouht-
edIy viewed from many staudpoint-
as splendid object lesson in mat
rimony. The comedy should be
seen not only by those who nave en-
tered the bonds Of wedlock, but also
by those who contemplate taking
that most Important step. Charles

While some things have been said
through your columns about the
disturbing noise of steam whistles

noise in the cities, when the wheels
OF commerce make a mighty din
that bespeaks in no uncertain tone
the presence of prosperity AL
though these sounds may not be
pleasant from a musical standpoint
yet in some way from their tones,
we are buoyed up in the struggle of
life, whatever our occupation may
be, and we are still made to feel
that life is worth living. whether we
are in the midst of the din, or like
Goldsmith are caused to say:
Sweet was the sound when oft at
eventide,
Up yonder hill the village mar
mur rose
There as Ipassed with careless step
and slow,
The mingling notes came softened
from below"
While quiet is to be desired some
times, yet who would have all these
sounds hushsd forever in the world?
Humanity is peculiarly sensitive to
SQUAD and We are impressed that IN
the commercial world the greater
stir speaks OF greater success.

be touched by sweet music.

Friends of Frank MiIIen Pay Money
Due to the Insurance Company
and II Will Not Prosecute.
HIS DOWNFALL CAME AS A SHOCK.
Relatives of the Young Man Thought That
He Was Making Lots of Money.-Had
Not Known of His Bad Habits.

Frank Mil1en, of Brighton, the for
Prudential Insurance company at
Waukegan, will not be prosecuted for
his alleged embezzlement of the funds
of the Company, as the parents and
friends of the young man have agreed
to make up the shortage in the &C
counts of the Waukegan Office, and the
Managers of the company have an
nounced that when the shortage has
been made up no further efforts will
be made to secure the arrest or prose
cution of the missing agent.
The parents of Millen, who reside at
Brighton, first heard of the disappear.
ance of the boy when they read the &C.
count in the Kenosha County papers,
and the father of Millen at once went
to Waukegan and notified the agent Of
the insurance company that the short
age would be made Zip if the company
would release Millen from prosecution
This is entirely satisfactory to the
company, as it desires only to protect
the funds of the investors.
The act of Mi1len has come as an
awful shock to his parents and sister,
who are among the best known people
in the Western part of the county.
Mrs. Webb, a sister of the missipg
man, stated that they had no reason to
believe that Miilen was in financial
| trouble. She stated that he had been
receiving $18 per week anG commits.
sions, and that he was supposed to be
laying up money every week. The
parents of the young man feel the dis
grace deeply.
In the meantime no trace of the
missing man has been found, and it
seems that he has gone sufficiently far
from Waukegan to make it impossible
for the managers of the company to
get any trace of him. Millen had no
familiar friends in Waukegan, and for
this reason no one seems to have heard
from him. Millen's friends in Keno
sha, if they have heard from him, re-
fuse to tell anything in regard to his
present whereabouts, but it is supposed
that ne is somewhere near Denver,
Colorado.
With the settlement with the COM
pany Millen will be given a chance to
return to Kenosha or Waukegan and
begin life over. His associates in bus
mess in Kenosha claim that Millen is
an expert insurance man and that his
services have been eagerly sought by
several companies.
Stories coming from Waukegan
show that the downfall and disgrace of
the young man was entirely due to
drink, as he had been living a very
fast life since he had been in Wauke-
gau md it is probable that his own
money, of which he had quite little,
as well as the funds of the company,
which he is accused of taking, were
lost in this manner.

A man named Meraud complained
to M. Bruet, police commissary for one

valuable carrier pigeons, and said that
one of his friends had seen them at the
house of another man.
The magistrate went to the place
indicated and there saw some birds.
"How did you come by them?" he
asked the man. ooh, bought them
months ago." was the reply

M. Bruet. There he had a wax seal

birds liberated. They flew back to
Meraud's house, and an hour later the
