joyed such long runs as stage pro-
duction in the large cities, is to be
told this summer on Chautauqua by
Edwin M. Whitney, rated by some of
the leading newspapers of America

prefers"
"Turn to the Right" is one of
those intense human interest"
stories. 1t deals with the adventures
of three men who have gone the
wrong road and finally find them
selves on the Turn to the Right"
Humorous situations, witty dia-
logues, and some thrilling episodes
all have a part in it's fascinating
plot.
Mr.. Whitney impersonates each of
the ten characters in the play. AS
the Sacramento, California, Union,
describes the portrayal, without the
embellishments of scenery nor the
wardrobe of a theatrical troupe" Ed
win Whitney, the peer of dramatic
interpreters in this country staged
a heart-gripping play here last night
when he interpreted and imperson-
ated the twelve characters of the
fascinating story, Turn to the
Right"
''Never has an audience had the
opportunity to hear such fine en-
tertainment" says the Portland, Ore
gon, Telegram. whitney took near
ly two hours to deliver his enter
tainment, and during the entire
time held his audience in breathless
silence while they listened to the
story of the play. At the compile
ton of the story the large audience
rose to it's feet and cheered, to show
their appreciation of the great act
ing" "
Last season Mr. Whitney and his
Interpretation of Turn to the
Right" was declared by Mr.. Harri-
son, manager of the big Redpth cir
cult out of Columbus, Ohio, to be
the most popular attraction of our
entire chautauqua."

GREATEST DAMAGE DONE
IN SPRINGDALE SECTION
Repairs Of Damage Done by Tuesdays
Storm VIII Cost County Thousands
OF Dollars.

Although there was much damage
done by the rain and wind storms of
Monday night and Tuesday in all parts
of the county, reports indicate that the
greatest amount of damage was done
in the Springdale neighborhood in
which section, County Officials say, it
will require the expenditure of thou
sands of dollars for the county to put
the roads and pixies back in the con-
dition they were before the storm.
Probably the greatest damage done
was the tearing out of two large 60
foot concrete bridges near Springdale.
These bridges and the large concrete
wall wings are completely ruined at
loss of thousands of dollars. Land
is washed. hogs were drowned. gar
dens ruined and several houses we're
flooded. Mr.. George Brevard and fam
lily were compelled to wade in water to
their waists 20 get out of their home
while the home of Mrs. Emmons,
whose husband was killed at dam 3S
in an accident last summer, was flood
ed, and her children were compelled to
desert the house.
County Engineer Simons and his
crew are now at work putting the
pixies and roads in as good temporar!
condition as possible but Springdale i!
practically cut off from the balance o
the county by road.

INTERCHURCH Meet
ING IS SUCCESSFUL;
METHOD EXPLAINED
Prominent DlVlnes Explain the Pur-
pose of the Great Interchurch
World MOvement-Charts and
Figures Are Alarming.

The first of the Interchurch World
Movement Conferences to be held in
Maysville which opened at the First
Presbyterian church Tuesday evening
came to close at noon today and the
two sessions were greatly enjoyed by
good sized audiences and the figures
and charts drawn from facts gathered
i'm the interchurch surveys were quite
alarming.
Tuesday evenings session was given
over entirely to the presentation of
charts. figures and pictures on the
screen. These charts and figures
forcefully brought out the facts gath
cred in the recent survey made by this
movement and the slides were accom-
panied by interesting lectures. DR.. j.
D. Armistead, pastor of the Cyuthiana
Christian church lectured on the Home
and Foreign work while DIR. J. NJ. Lit
eral. presiding elder of the Covington
district of the NJ. f. church, lectured
on the State Field.
Because of bad railroad connections
it became necessary to cut today's pro-
gram short by eliminating the after
noon session and the morning session
was quite crowded but was neverthe-
les very interesting. Splendid ad-
dresses were delivered and a round
table discussion brought out many OF
the features of the Interchurch work
which seems to be little understood ir
this section. The team in charge of the
conference here was headed by DR..
]. Spencer, pastor of the Central Chris
tion church, Lexington, and the Other
members of the team besides those
mentioned above are DR.. c. B. Crock.
EFT, Shelbyville; DR.. w. A. Eisenhart
Bowling Green; Mrs. ], H. Spillman
Burgin, and DR. H. G.. Weeden, Louis
Vile. The team left here this after,
noon for Ashland where a similar con
ference opens tonight and will clos,
tomorrow afternoon.

The court house is expected to be
filled this evening when Hon. Charles
Kerr, Judge of the Fayette Circuit
Court, will speak on the subject, THE
Republican Party; Its History and
Principles" This subject should fill
the court house but when the man
who is to bring the message is con-
sidered there is every reason that it
should be filled to overflowing and
from indications this afternoon, ii ap-
pears that there will be scores to hear
this eminent jurist explain the party
| TO which he is attached.
No man in the entire state of Ken
lucky is better qualified to make a
speech on this subject than is Judge
Kerr. He has long been leader of the
party in Kentucky and is student of
matters political equaled by few in the
whole of the nation. A more scholarly
gentleman could not be found in all
of the state and the foundation of his
learning was obtained in the common
schools of Mason county and the old
Baptist Academy In Maysville.
The fact that Judge Kerr is a ma
tive of Mason county has created more
than the usual amount of interes, in
his coming here and this fact alone is
expected to bring many out to the
/ m aatino this avaninp
1t should be remembered that the
meeting begins promptly at 1880
o'clock at the Mason county court
house. There is no charge for admis-
sion and the entire public is cordially
invited to attend. There are no restr,c
tions and no conditions. Every one
will be made welcome. Maysville and
Mason county should honor her son by
a very large audience.
