Country papers all over Illinois
are advancing their subscription
rates. Nearly all the publications
that have been sold for 81 year
are now asking from 25 cents t. 80
cents more. The publishers of the
rural papers say the high price of
papers and materials of all kinds
and the greatly increased cost of
production in every department
make an advance in the subsorip-
ton rates imperative.

EDNA MAY.

Syracuse. She came to New York to study for the stage. Her initial ap- pearance was in Santa Maria" an opera produced at Hammerstein's. Her first great hit was as the Salva- ton Army girl in "The Belle of New York" When this play was trans ferred from New York to London all England went crazy over the demure American actress, and her future sue cess was assured. She has since played in such productions as "The Casino Girl" "The Girl From Up There,' An American Beauty" 'sThree Little Maids," ''The School Glrr and "The Catch of the Season" in both New York and London. Very popular with American theater goers, she was the reigning favorite in Lon- don for years.
 Miss Mays first matrimonial venture was not a success. She was divorced from Fred Titus, the former bicycle champion, in 1905, after a sensational trial in which she named as correspond ent Maud Desmond, an actress. At that time 1t was said that her purpose fin securing divorce was to gain free dom so she might marry duke.
 Lewisohn is about twenty-five years of age and is Ia graduate of Harvard. Since his graduation he has spent his time largely in travelling. He is a multimillionaire.

Auditorium
 Vaudeville

Ethel Kelly, little miss of 1G who is just starting her career on the stage, and who is appearing this week at the Auditorium, is making a big hit at every performance. She does a turn at singing and dancing which would reflect credit on one much more experienced. She has good voice, sings catchy songs and finishes with some fine dancing, her toe dance espec- ially coming in for much applause. The Thompson sisters, also singers and dancers, have good number and have been well received at all the performances thus far ths week, their dancing being one of the special fea- tures Peyser and McDonald, comedy acrobats, have an act similar to most comic acrobats, but introduce many new stunts. At the finish of this act Mir Mcdonald throws forward somersault over five chairs and a table without the use of a springboard. This is very difficult feat and he Is warmly applauded at the finish. Al Wilson, colored comedian, pleases with his singing and dancing, and Jack Cameron, the funny tramp, who also does little singing and does q clog dance which is as good as tlle best of them. Miss Minnie Sullivan sings the latest illustrated songs and three reels of motion pictures are shown. Friday night is amateur night.

There are many stirring scenes in "Shamus O'Brien" which Polls OWL stock company is presenting at the Jacques this week, but perhaps the most impressive setting is the execu- tion scene, where Shamus is about to be hanged. The scaffold and the hangman are ready when Father Ma lone goes to the platform to have q last word with the doomed hero. Sud- denly the ropes which bind his wrists are cut and Shamus escapes. Richard Gordon made hit as Shamus, the bold hero of GlengalI, and large audiences have been attracted to tie playhouse. A capacity house was present on Tuesday afternoon wien souvenir photographs of MT. Gordon were distributed. Miss Edna BrIns is charming as Mary Donoughmore. and plays the role with ease and grace.
