Theodore Thomas Orchestra
of Chicago Gives Concert
Monday Night.
KENOSHA FAILS TO SUPPORT IT

Kenosha is not great musical cen
ter and the people of the city showed
their lack of an appreciation Of the
best things in music on Tuesday even
ing when only mediocre crowd turn
ed out to hear the Theodore Thomas
orchestra of Chicag5,ss1tho most notable
body of musicians ever seen in Keno
sha. Harry T. Morgan, who was in
charge Of the concert, had expected
that the orchestra would be greeted
by crowd which would tax the seat
ing capacity of the Coliseum, but when
Conductor Stock waved his baton for
the opening of the notable program
crowd of less than 700 people was
present.
The coming Of the orchestra will,
however, remain the musical event Of
several years in Kenosha. The pro-
gram was particularly happy one for
the audience and if any criticism could
be made on the selections it would be
that the conductor had sought to
make the program a too popular one
and had studiously kept away from
some of the classic music for which
many of the members of the audience
had decided liking.
The two numbers which brought the
full ensemble of the orchestra, the
opening number, the overture from
"Der Freichuetz' and the closing
number the overture from "Tannhaeus-
err brought rounds of applause.
There was peculiar sweetness to
the playing of the orchestra in the
Schubert music and the Andante con
motto proved decidedly popular num-
Der and called forth one Of the most
hearty encores of the evening
Another number that was especially
pleasing was the "Childrens Dance
of Humperdinck and Conductor Stock
madd concession to the audience
"Waltz Caprice
The solo work for the evening was
nearly all played by Bruno steindel
and his artistic work on The cello won
for him great place in the hearts of
the unsteady inclined in Kenpsha.
He played Meditation by Pepper and
The Serenade by Glazounow and graci-
ously responded to repeated encores
by playing as an encore The Lullaby
HrBerceuse from GODDARD IS "Jocelyn ;
Many people considered this little en-
core the most charming number on the
program.
The full program rendered by the
orchestra follows:

CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE.


At the Chestnut Street Theatre, Phila
delphia, next week, will be given "The
Only Law" play that has been asked
for frequently, and which has been giving
New York theatre goers great entertain
ment the past year or more The man
agement of the ;Chestnut Street Theatre
has been trying for long time to get thi:
excellent play for the Orpheum PLAYER.
and has but recently been successful
THE Only Law is play of New York
life, by Wilson Miner and George Brou
son Howard. 1t is impossible to com
pare this play with any other, so decidedly
different it is from the average run Of
dramas. 1t merely depicts certain type:
and their ways of living in the heart Of
most any metropolis, and reveals con
d1tions that truly exist at the present day
The story, In short, is that of Jean, of the
Casino, who is living with one MacAvoy
and is supporting this miserable parasite
Jean is loved by Bannister, a broker, re
spectacle and of pure intentions. He
wishes to marry the girl, and while await
ing her answer he gives her money with
which to live. Jean speculates on a til
given her by the broker, and she gives hel
winnings to MacAvoy and asks him tc
take her away to place where they may
live together. MacAvoy, however, vii
not consent, but wants Jean to marry
Bannister, and to take his money to keeI
MacAvoy. This does not suit Jean. Mac
Avoy plans to desert her for chorus girl
but his scheme is frustrated by pal
of his who causes his arrest, and he is cast
aside by Jean, who finally consents to be
Bannister's wife. The play is full of great
situations and the fact that it is to be pro
duced by the Orpheum Players is sufficient
notice of the success it will attain il

FROM what standpoint you view sub
ject has much to do with your ideas. One
paper. thick and thin" supporter of
Governor Wilson. cannot see that there
should be any criticism of the Governors
action in taking western trip. 1t recalls
the fact that other Governors have taken
breathing spell and run off for a short
vacation, and wants to know If there is
any reason why governor should be kept
down to his desk any more than any other
official. If this is the fact why should
there be any rush to defend the executive?
The truth is the Governor has not gone
away for recreation, but he is Swinging
around the circle" to make capital in his
campaign for the nomination for President
of the United States. The strenuous life
he will be compelled to live while on this
trip is not of character to ensure rest or
to restore shattered nerves. The Trenton
State Gazette hits the nail on the head in
the following remarks:
Some of Governor Wilson's friends are
wasting good deal of time in undertake
lug u COnFincc INC people CnaG ne is not
a politician. 1t strikes us that he has
played the game of politics with all the
courage and cleverness of an old hand at
1t ever since he became governor Of the
state.
He has certainly selected men for pub
lie office with the purpose of making
friends for himself, and has used his
power as governor to compel the legisla-
ture to enact into law measures which he
believed would strengthen him with the
so-called common people.
And now, with unfinished business on
his desk In the form of important meas
ures in which the people are interested,
and upon which they are anxious to be
heard, the governor is touring the west,
not for recreation, because he is working
hard with the evident intention of max
ing himself and his views concerning mat
tiers of national Importance known to the
people.
There is nothing reprehensible in Gov
ernor Wilson's action, perhaps, but the
people ought to be given to understand
that he Is q politician, and that he Is work.

his own political fortunes"

A Brutal Murder.

Away back behind the nineteenth CEN
fury brutal murder was committed near
Waste House run, near Mahanoy City, in
Schuylkill county.
The victim of this crime was John Eel
haber, German peddler The man was
tomahawked and his possessions taken by
his murderer. Inasmuch as theywere all in
copper, they amounted to not more than
twenty-five dollars.
The mystery was solved with the arrest
and conviction of BENJAMIN Bailey. a
young stranger, who had seen the peddler
at country inn and surmised that he
carried large sums of money.
One article on some great crime in
Pennsylvania history is printed in each
issue of the Sunday North american. All
OF these articles are more than interesting,
and the collection will form a volume Of
the states criminal history.

SPEAKING of a bill introduced and
pressed to passage by Assemblyman Blan-
chard H. White, the Camden Post Tele-
gram says:
THE White bill for the sterilization OF
rapists, feeble-minded and other detectives
Is now law, having been signed by
Governor Wilson. When a bill of this
character was first introduced in the Legis-
lature, several years ago, 1t was treated as
a joke. But Its seriousness was gradually
impressed upon the lawmakers by those
who had made serious study of heredi-
tary crime and imbecility, while the fact
that In three states similar law was in
successful operation showed that sterilza-
ton had got beyond the theoretical and
experimental stage.
The power conferred upon the Sterili.
cation Commission is hedged about In
such way that abuses are not likely to
occur. Provision Is made for careful OBJ
seryation of the subjects operated on. sc
that year or two hence, In the light oil
experience. surer judgment may be
formed as to the advantages or disadvan.
tages of sterilization.
'Penalogists and the medical profession
will be keenly interested in the workings
of this novel and advanced legislation.

TUESDAY, MAY 9, 1911

DURING the years when the Republican
party was 10 charge of the affairs of New
Jersey, Democratic papers had all sorts of
criticism on what they termed the extra
vagance Of the Republicans. Now they
are engaged in another kind of task and
are explaining. or rather trying to explain,
why under Democratic rule, the aprropri-
ations have increased over eight hundred
thousand dollars. The only thing the
papers have been able to do thus far is to
promise that it shall not happen again.
This year was the first chance the Demo-
Gratis haye had in long time to get a
crack at the treasury, and they certainly
took advantage of it.

Ram EsI Bovri saved the Lives o.
Two Children on East indian d,
Railway.

Last January a porter on the
East Indian railway was presented
the King Edward medal for heroism,
as a reward for saving the lives Of
two children. The viceroy Of India
fastened the medal on his breast in
the presence Of a large company Of
Europeans and Indians, among
whom we're the chief officials of the
railway. A year ago Ram Lal Bouri,
the porter, was on the first of num-
Der Of coal cars that we're being
shunted to a side line leading to a
colliey, and as they passed around
curve Ram Lal saw three little
children playing on the track. He
leaped of the car, seized two. little
ones and bundled them of the track ;
and he had the third child in his
grasp when the car came upon him,
throwing him down and killing the
child. When Ram Lal was called to
appear before the yiceroy he went in
fear and trembling, not having taken
any food that day and expecting to
be severely punished for not having
saved the. third child's life, He did
not seem to realize that he had done
well in doing all that it was possible
to do. The cheers which greeted
him and the praise given to his
brave act were never bestowed upon
a more modest hero.-Century Path

the Orient.
Twice year there are grand rae
ing meets in Shanghai and the elite
ofh ese game little steeds from the
north come down to compete for SUI
premacy Of the track. The handi-
Gaping is based on height; pony
of IL hands is given less weight to

and the Europeans are just as eager
patrons Of the sport as the Celestials.
Betting is open and UNRESTRICTED
and is done something after the
fashion Of the pari-mutuel system.
The climax Of the, meeting is when
the grand prize Of several thousand
