Old Theatrical Manager to
Give Up Lease on Princess
Theatre in a Few Days.
LONG CONNECTED WITH WORK

Frank j. 0 'Brien, one of the old
nestors of the theatrical business in
Kenosha and in Wisconsin, is to retire
as he announced today that he had
turned over hisSlease on the Princess
Theatre on Wisconsin street to the
Kenosha Elks Association and he will
retire from the business in the very
near future. Financial difficulties and
a growing deafness have forced
.O'Brien out of the theatrical game and
he has been aware for some time that
his poor health would make it impos-
sible for him to continue. His plans
for the future are indefinite and the
Elks Association has no plans for the
future of the theatre, but it will prob
ably be leased to Chicago theatrical
promoter who will open it within the
next few weeks.
Manager . 'Brien is to be given
big send off by the vaudeville com
panies the latter part of the week and
a lot of well known people have vol
unteered their services for a benefit
performance to be given on Thursday
evening. 1t is probable that Mr..
Q 'Brien will also appear in this per-
Torrance and give one of his old skits.
Frank O'Brien has been connected
with the show business for more than
forty years. Way back in 1879 he
Joined the Haverley Minstrel Troupe
and later he was with B. F. Keith in
New York, Philadelphia and Boston.
He severed his connection with the
Keith forces in 1900 and came to Mil
waukee. Later he spent three years
IL Australia where he was in charge of
several theatrical properties. In 1903
he became the junior partner in the
Jones-O 'Brien company and this com
pany opened theatres in Racine, Keno
sha, Fond du Lac, Sheboygan, Osh-
kosh and Manitowoc. Later O'Brien
returned to the stage as a performer
and after successful season in vaude-
vile ne returned to Kenosha to rebuild
the old Bijou theatre which he christ
ened the Princess. 1t is probable that
he will 60 to Milwaukee to make his
home and that he will continue to be
connected with the mimic world in
some position with one of the Milwau-
kee theatres.

GUIDED BY INSTINCT
ctfiPMuNk KNOWS JUST WHAT
FOOD SUPPLY TO STORE,
Only Nonperishabie Stuff Is Put
Away for the Winter-Great
Naturalist Writes of Wild Pet
That Is His Friend.

At present my favorite denizen Of
the orchard is the chipmunk, writes
John Burroughs in Harper's Maya
zine. He, too, likes the apple seeds,
but he is not given to chipping UP
the apples as much as is the red
squirrel He waits till the apples are
ripe and then nibbles the pulp. He
also likes the orchard because it wells
his movements; when making his
trips to and fro, if danger threatens,
the trunk of every tree is house of
refuge.
AS I write these lines in my leafy
tent, chipmunk comes in, foraging
for his winter supplies. | have
brought him cherry pits and peach
pits and cracked wheat, from time to
time. and now he calls on me several
times a day. His den is in the or
chard but q few yards from me, and
| enjoy having him for so near a
neighbor He has at last become so
familiar that he climbs to my lap,
then to the table, then to my shoulder
and head, looking for the kernels of
popcorn that he is convinced have
some perennial source of supply near
me or about me. He clears up every
kernel, and then on is return, in a
few minutes, there they are again!
I might think him good deal puz-
zled by the prompt renewal of the
T fn
thoughts into his little Roddle, but I
see he is only eager to gather his
harvest while it is plentiful and so
near at hand. No, he is not Influenced
even by that consideration; he does
not consider at all, in fact, but just
goes for the corn in nervous eager
ness and haste. Yet, If he does not
reflect, he certainly has wisdom and
foresight of his own. This morning
I mixed kernels Of fresh cut green
corn with a handful of the dry, hard
popcorn upon the floor. At first he
began to eat the soft, sweet corn,
but, finding the small, dry kernels of
the popcorn he at once began to stuff
his cheek pockets with them, and
when they were full he FASTENED off
| to his den. Back he came in about
three minutes, and he kept on doing
this till the popcorn was all gone;
then he proceeded to make his break
fast off the green corn. When this
was exhausted, he began to strip
some choke cherries (Which | had
also placed among the CORN Of their
skins and pulp, and to fill his pockets
with the pits, thus carrying no perish
able food to his den. He acted exactly
as il he knew that the green corn
and the choke cherries would spoil
| in his underground retreat, and that
| the hard, dry kind and the cherry
| pits, would keep. He did know it,
but not as you and know it, by rea-
son of experience; he knew it, as
all the wild creatures know how to
/ get on in the world, by the wisdom
that pervades nature, and is much
| older than we or they are.

Poor View,

An Irish widow who lives in a small
frame house on the West side in Chi
cago has still smaller cottage in the
rear of her house that she rents to
an aged Irish woman who lives alone
and rarely stirs out.
Not long ago the landlady was tell
ing the tenant of some things she had
seen in the paper and said: AN them
Turks and Bulgarians! They do be
havin a. terrible time. Twas only
yesterday that the Turks grabbed
thin by the hair an pulled thin
down the street"
GLORY be, that's awful" exclaimed
the tenant. Then she sighed and
added: That's just it, though; you
never see anything when you live in
the rear. Saturday Evening Post.

Sir: A while ago you published a lot
ter about the undue proximity OF TN.
surface car tracks on Amsterdam avenue
being a menace TO the residents OF this
now populous section. Apparently no
steps have been taken by the Now York
Railways Company TO relieve the peril
of tho existing situation.
The serious injury TO an ord resident
on January last, at tho 9ist street
corner OF this avenue. as we'll as many
other such accidents, was mainly due
TO the extreme narrowness OF tho space
between the TRACKS. which. by the way.
were originally laid before a franchise
was obtained.
The young pupils OF the large mum
Der OF public. parochisl and private
schools situated Immediately east and
west of Amsterdam avenue, as well A.
the mature and aged residents, are ali
vitality interested in tho widening Al
ONCE Of the space between the afors
said car tracks-their patience now being
exhausted. VERBUM SAPIENTL
