Party Listens to Opera.

The music was equally successful A scene from the opera at the Metro politan vas heard and then several numbers by quartet in another amusement place. Next the listeners heard an act of play by the Ben Greet players.
 Bethell said it would be possible with little trouble to arrange so that every performance in every part of the country as far as Denver could be heard here, and a general receiver could be made that would enable a party to sit around and near without individual receivers.

Governor McGovern Issues a
Proclamation Churches
to Hold Special Services
TO PAY HOMAGE TO MOTHERS

Next Sunday will be Mother s Day
and appropriate exercises Hxill be held
in all the local churches Ill eonmem-
grafton of the event. Mothers day is
a new national holiday and was started
a few years ago The object of the
day is to pay homage to the mothers
all over the United States Everyone
is expected to wear white carnations
on this day and the florists of the city
are expecting an unusual demand.
Governor McGovern today by official
proclamation, set aside Sunday, May
IA, as Mother IS day Mother 5 day has
been celebrated in Wisconsin before,
but this is the first time in the history
of the state that the day has been
set aside by executive proclamation.
Following is the official proclamation:
Gin keeping with the practice in
other states, in accordance with the
sentiment Of our people and in har
mony with personal feeling, | hereby
designate Sunday, May IA, 1911, as
Mothers day. !,
cit is surely fitting thing to dedi
cate one day each year to the mothers
of the land. Holidays to commend
rate heroism, great national achieve
ments and important calendar events
are not uncommon; but now for the
first time in Wisconsin the Sabbath
day is set aside by proclamation for
the noble purpose Of celebrating the
modest virtues that make true homes.
"The observance of the birthdays
of Washington and Lincoln fosters
patriotism-; nonetheless will the cele-
bration of Mothers day develop do
nestle virtues which are the founda-
ton of good citizenship.
Let the exercises for Mothers day
be so selected and arranged as to
emphasize the significance and at
Effectiveness of home life in order
that the lesson drawn from them may
magnify the most fundamental of hui
man institutions.

SEEK KENoSHA MAN.
Police Asked to Find Man Wanted as
an Heir to Estate.

The police of the city have received
a letter from Edward Solomon, Chi
cage attorney, engaged in seeking heirs
to estates in foreign countries, asking
that they aid him in locating William
Jankulski who is wanted in connection
with the settlement of an estate in
Russia. Search has been made for the
man for some time and he is known
to have been resident of Kenosha
for number of years, but all efforts
to find him at this time have been
futile. JaulSulsld has not been seen at
any of his old haunts for more than
a year and the police can get no trace
of him in Kenosha.

COUPLE MARRIED.
Thos. Thorpe and Miss Helen Mohrman
Eloped to Kenoslla on Monday.

Judge Randall had quiet little
wedding at the municipal court on
Monday afternoon, the contracting
parties being Thomas Thorpe and Miss
Helen Norman, both of Waukegan.
The county officials who issued the Ii
cense to the young couple declare that
the marriage will be great surprise
to their friends and relatives in Wau-
kegan. The bride smilingly admitted
that it was just possible that her rela-
tives did not know Of the approaching
marriage, but both bride and groom
declared that they were Of legal age
and that there was no bar to the mar
rage. They returned to Waukegan
Immediately after the ceremony.

OPPOS|TIONI IS BEING REMOVED
Attorney for the Company Denies
Supposed interview in Regard to
Rebuilding Plant and the Company
Will Observe the Law.

Waukegan claims to have informa
ton that the E. /. DUPONT company
will rebuild its plant at Pleasant Prai-
RE and the people about Waukegan
who feared the coming of a powder
plant to their neighborhood are greatly
relieved. 1t is stated in Waukegan that
the officials of the company have mott
fed property owners in that county
who offered sites for the location of a
new plant that the sites would not be
acceptable on account of the fact that
the company would rebuild the plant
at Pleasant Prairie.
Attorney Cavanagh who represents
the company in Kenosha is quoted in
long interview which he promptly
denied this morning. Mr.. Cavanagh
said: 81 have not attempted to give
out any facts in regard to the re-
building of the plant at Pleasant
Prairie on account Of the fact that [
did not know anything about the plans
of the company directors. [ do
know that the company has received
numerous offers of sites for the plant
in the county over the state line and
when asked on Tuesday in regard to
the acceptance of any of these sites
[ assured the Waul1egan people that /
did not believe that the company
would abandon big plant at Pleasant
Prairie for the purpose Of moving a
few miles over a state lnes | know
that the opposition to the rebuilding
of the plant is not nearly as strong as
it was and / was advised a few days
ago by one of the best known men of
Pleasant Prairie that majority of the
people in the neighborhood and very
large majority would have no objec-
tions to the rebuilding Of the plant
and it is certain that not a few Of
these people favor the rebuilding, y
Prominent residents Of the village
of Pleasant Prairie in Kenosha on
Tuesday indicated this same feeling.
They declared that with the regulation
provided by the new state law which
will undoubtedly pass the assembly be-
fore the end of the week and receive
the approval of the governor that
the sting of the powder mill would be
removed. There is no doubt but that
the hberality of the company in set
ting claims for the recent explosion
has done much to remove the feeling
Of opposition. In Kenosha there has
been no change in this feeling and the
people of the city are almost unit in
the desire to have the plant abandoned
One Of the officials of the company in
speaking of the matter declared that
undeDS the new state regulations there
would be no more danger from the
powder plant than there would be from
quiet celebration Of the Fourth of
July"
The company is planning to get the
claims for damages following the ex-
plosion settled up this week and after
that the decision in regard to the re
building of the plant will be made and
it now seems pretty certain that por-
ton of the plant will be operated.
The company, however, will abide
strictly by the laws of the state.

MRS. TRUAX is DEAD
Edna Holderness Tpuax Died
at Kenosha Hospital on
Sunday Morning
DEATH SHOCKS MANY FRIENDS

Mrs. Edna Holderness Truax, aged
III years, wife of Frank H. Truax ana
one Of the best known Of the young
matrons of the city, died at the Ke-
nosha hospital just before seven
o 'clock Sunday morning after a
weeks illness from a complication of
diseases. Mrs. Truax had been i'll for
several weeks and she had gone to the
hospital for an operation for append
citis on last Tuesday. The operation
revealed complications which demand
ed a second operation and although
the patient rallied from the operations
she had no strength to fecuperate from
| the ordeal.
The death of Mrs Truax has cast a
pail over many homes in Kenosha and
the announcement of it on Sunday
morning came as great shock to
many Of the friends of the young
| woman.
Mrs. Truax was daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Thomas Holderness of Ash
land avenue. She was born in Kenosha
April "a, 1884. She was educated in
the schools Of the city and was gradu-
ated from the Kenosha high school as
member of the class of 1901. She
spent three years at Northwestern Uni
yersity at Evanston and completed her
university course at the University Of
Wisconsin from which she was grad
uated with high honors. She was mar
ried to Mr.. Truax June "a, 1908.
During her college life Mrs. Truax
was a member of the Alpha Sorority
at both Northwestern university and
the University Of Wisconsin. She was
member of the Kenosha Chapter of
the Daughters of the American Revo-
luton and of the Woman s club of
Kenosha. Her interest in these organi-
cations was not marked as she was
distinctly a woman of the home and
she found her greatest pleasure in the
little body of friends she was accus-
toned to meet about her own fireside.
She was a woman of many noble traits
of character, educated and refined and
! her death came as a great blow to
those who knew and loved her best.
Mrs. Truax is survived by her hus-
ban and three step-children Her one
surviving brother is Lieutenant Roy
Holderness who is now with the United
States army on the Mexican border.

get to finish their ninth inning in the
game that was played at Peak on last
Saturday afternoon between the St.

bases were loaded with Peak men
when the game was called off. I beg
to correct this statement. The ninth
lining was finished, and the men that
were on the bases were all out, altho
the scores did stand to in favor Of
Peak. I also want to impress upor
