FINE CHARITY CONCERT.

Splendid Success.

The charity concert arranged by
j. T. Hendricks, which was given In

success from an artistic standpoint,
as well as financially. 1t could almost
be classed a juvenile entertainment
for the majority OF those on the pro-
gram were under fifteen years OF age
Irene Guthrie and her brothers, Har-
ry and Wallace, gave their parts In ex-
cellent fashion and were heartily en-
cored. Miss Florence May Witherell
was charming too, and did her little
sketch in delightful manner
Thomas Ray and his two little sons
Horace and Harry, five and eight
years old, were several times recalled
to sing. Wonderful voices these two
little chaps have; their singing was
beautiful. The Roma Olympian band
and the orchestra OF young mon made
essential hits, their playing being par

very substantial sum will be turned

mayor advanced by proclamation. lie
ordained a public holiday, and called
upon every citizen Of the city to de-
vote more or less of the hours of day

able. owners Of vacant lots were call
ed upon to give them the same atten-
ton as If occupied and If possible
to arrange with tho poor Of the city
for the cultivation Of such tracts as
are not of service in other ways. fIhe
city provided 100 wagons to remove
the debris which every resident was
called upon to have in heap in an
accessible place, ready for loading.
The idea was an excellent one, and
no doubt tho result of its Inaugural

ton that LcaVenWorth would be made
the slickest city in Kansas.

Kansas City, the street department

we suspect that in New Haven a still
greater amount Of rubbish and waste

purely selfish standpoint of protection
