which the Totten company gives.
The climax of the weeks enter

duction of Rostand's best comedy,
"The Romancers" by the Frank Lea
Short Players. These splendid actors
have given this play many times be-
fore colleges, literary and social
clubs, and lyceum audiences with
universal success. The plot of the
play centers around the romantic ad-
ventures of Sylvette and Percinet,
the scions of neighbOring but I'M
neighborly families. The comedy ele-
ment is introduced by a picturesque
swashbuckling character, Straforel
and his band of brigands. True to
its designation, the play is a comedy,
and all ends well in the last act. The
members of this company are all
persons of the best character, and
there is nothing In the play to offend
the conscience OF any one. The
author of the play. Edmond Rostand.

On the opening evening, after a
prelude by the American Ladies Or
chestra, Miss Hettie Jane Dunaway
will give costumed reading of "Just
Plain Judy" which is an adaptation
from the famous "best seller, Daddy
Long Legs" This entertainment will
have musical accompaniment and
has been heralded by Lyceum Bureau
managers all over the country as
something absolutely unique. Miss
Dunaway's Interpretation of the little
orphan girl is true to life and remark
ably artistic. She is not an elocu-
ZIONIST In the usual sense in which
that word is used and the training
which she has received in public
speaking has enhanced her native
ability instead of beclouding 1t. The
schools and colleges of her native
state, Arkansas, and private teachers
in Boston have contributed to her
success on the platform.
One whole evening of Chautauqua
will be given over to the Cavenys

FAVORABLE CORN
CROP ON THE WAY

TOPEKA, Aug. 3.-The State Board
of Agriculture, in its monthly crop
bulletin issued today. insists that the
Kansas wheat crop will reach 49,
100000 bushels. It's June estimate
was 13S,700,000 bushels. but the re-
duction for the month is accounted
for mainly by the continuous rains
and frequent hail storms.
The corn crop is estimated at three
fourths of a yield, based on present
conditions. There is plenty of time.
however. for the condition to change
one way or the other before that crop
is in the shock.
After estimating that the wheat
yield will be 115,700000 bushels Sec
retary j. c. Mailer says:
Numerous fields failed to be har-
vested owing to ground that was con-
stantly too wet to operate the reaping
machines. and the overripe grain went
down beyond reach of the sickle. Ex-
cessive precipitation caused much
damage throughout the State and this
condition is reflected by the decreas-
ed average yields per acre indicated
on the area harvested. In some cases
weeds made such growth as TO render
the crop not worth cutting.
Little Threshing Done.
Comparatively little threshing has
been done as yet. In a few counties
harvest was entirely finished by last
Saturday, the date of this investiga-
ton, and in the counties comprising
the northwestern quarter of the State,
as we'll as in a few others elsewhere.
