T U E S D A Y . J U N E 9, 1903.
The fame of James Keane and his
excellent company has preceded his
coming and no doubt he will re
ceive a great reception when be
appears here Friday night June 19.
His repertoire consists of The Only
Way. Monte Cristo, Night Off,
Capt. Swift, Confession. Mexican
Romance and other new and popular
successes. Mr. Keane, who it is
said, had better taste in the selec
tion of artists to interpret the differ
ent roles than any other man o f his
age in the profession; feels that he
has done himself proud in bringing
this company o f players together.
He has chosen for bis leading lady
Miss Lillian Albertson one of the
noted actresses of the stage today,
and who has more magnetism with
her audiences than many actresses
of more experience has not. Julia
Walco.tt is another extremely clever
woman with this company, she has
many successes to her credit. Eva
Myril Lewis the American dainty
soubrette has been on the stage
since she waB s baby and her popu
larity seem to increase with her age,
still she is only iu her teens. Alfred
Aldrich, Edwin Macken, Glen
Byers, Scott Kobertso and seveial
other well known attists are with
this excellent organization. Special
scenery tor each and every play is
is carried complete, thus it can be
easily seen that the plays will re
ceive a grand mounting, as it has
expended many thousands o f dol
lars to have this scenery painted-
Seats will go fast and it is good
abvice to get them early before they
are all gone.
M arried . — In Marshfield, June 10
1903, P. W. Laird, of near this
city, ana Miss Flora M. McCloskey,
of Norway. The happy couple were
accompanied to Marshfield by Mr.
and Mrs. J. W. Laird, Mr. and Mrs.
F. W. Von Pegert, Mr. and Mrs.
J. T. Jenkins, the Misses Sarah
Wagner, Elsie TilmaD, Minnie Mo-
Closkey, and Messrs W. A- Skelly,
Bertie McCloskey, Warren Laird,
and Fred Kinslow, in whose pres
ence tho ceremony was performed
by Rev. J. B. Peck.
The bride
wore a beautiful gown of cream
silk and wool jacqo Ate, trimmed
in all-over Irish point and ribbon.
Horrors of GreaKFIood are Lessened.
S t Louis, June 12.—The river
fell three-tenths of a foot last night,
and the situation in Hunt S t Louis
is materially improved.
Rescue work was resumed at dawn
and funds, clothing and provisions
are being received.
The scene in the flooded districts
are not nearly so appalling ns yes
terday and the bright sun now shin
ing gives a cheerful nnd hopeful
aspeot to the situation.
A survey of the flooded district
was made today and great surprises
were in store for the committee ap
pointed by the Mayor to go over
the inundated parts of the city
It was supposed that nearly all
persons had been taken from their
places of danger by 10 o’clock last
night, but this morning it was as
certained that fully 200 families,
more or less large, had remained in
their homes. Many of them were
without food, but had determined
to remain in their houses rather
than brave the dangers ol the cur
rents in the boats of tho rescuing
parties.
One house was entered through
the upper windows and there was
discovered a woman sick with a little
child beside her in the bed. The
unfortunate mother hail been too ill
to cry for help and had remained
for three long days and nights in
her chamber with the child with her
Luckily there was food in the room
and the little girl, who is four years
old had administered nourishment
to her sick mother nnd herself.
The father is absent in Alaska.
Railroad communication is pract
ically cut off, except for Westbound
traffic. The Missouri Pacific is run
ning on almost schedule time.
It is believed that the majority
of deaths that have occurred were
due to accidents and that not more
than a score o f persons have lost
their lives by drowning.
Relief in the way of food and
clothing supplies are coming in with
great satisfaction and it is probable
that there will be little more suffer
ing of tho thousands of destitute
from lack of food or raiment.
