COUNTRY PATRONS NOTICE.
Sheehan English Opera Company Com
ing to Kenosha Friday, April 25.

The Sheehan English Opera Com
pany comes to the Rhode Opera House,
Kenosha, on Friday night, April 25th,
presenting I'll Trovatore. It is the
leading operate organization of
America singing in English. Headed
by Joseph f. Sheehan, the greatest
tenor that America has yet produced,
and bringing brilliant array of sing
ers, together with a chorus of trained
voices and a special orchestra, the
company is equipped to give the opera
in wonderfully effective fashion The
innovation this organization has intro
duced of singing all the operas it pre-
SCENTS in English has proved most pop
ular. It enhances the enjoyment of
the audience wonderfully to be able
to understand all that the singers are
saying. The hearers gets the dramatic
as well as the musical enjoyment from
such a. performance. There is no good
reason why all operas sung in English
speaking countries should not be sung
in English. Foreign artists have al
ways resisted this reform, because
they do not want to be compelled to
learn English well enough to be able
to sing it. They have urged that Eng
lish was not musical language and
made other absurd objections. But the
Sheehan organization has demonstrated
that they are wrong. 1t has done
America the great service of populariz-
ing opera and making it intelligable
and enjoyable to the masses. Thus a
long career of usefulness stretches out
before this standard organization.
The scale Of prices ranges from $3.50
for lower floor seats to soc for bal
cony seats. The sale opens Saturday
morning, April 10Th. Mail and tele-
phone orders from country patrons will
receive special attention advdW

WARNING OF DANGER
Mushroom Season in Wis
consin to Bring Usual
Number Of Dangers.
POINT out POISON MUSHROOM

! Within a few days residents will be-
gin the annual gathering of mush-
rooms from country road sides and
meadows.
The rains Of the last few days, fol
lowed by warm weather and the sun
shine, will cause the fungus growths
to spring up rapidly, and as usual
there will be several cases of poison
! ing.
While there are several varieties
that may cause some degree cf diges-
tive disturbance and there are kinds
that one person may eat with perfect
safety, while another would be made
i'll, there is one variety the eating of
which is absolutely certain to cause
death. There is no antidote once
4 the victim has swallowed one of the
deadly Amanitas group, some of which
are to be found in Wisconsin. While
no hard and fast rules can be used to
distinguish other varieties that are
! nonedible, the Amanitas, like the rat
tlesnake, advertises itself as follows:
| It has "white gills.o
| It has ring on the stem just be-
meath the cap
It has a cup, or scales, at the base
of the STEM
| A mushroom that bears these marks
should never be gathered. Lovers of
the mushroom are warned against
placing reliance in poison tests when
in doubt about the variety of growth.
The only safe way is to leave the sus-
picious fungus strictly alone. The
poison tests are worthless. The idea
that poisonous mushrooms can be rem
dered harmless by boiling and then
washing thoroughly in cold water is
! erroneous.
The mushroom gatherer can easily
lfamiliarize himself with the few edi-
bic varieties growing in public parks,
door yards and on the outskirts of
the city.
