Carlcton Hazen This Afternoon— Annual Picnic Held—Berlin Ttems of Interest. The Theresa Sheehan Concert com- pany is a capable company of artists and was well received at the opening of the Chautauqua in Kensington last Miss Sheehan a well known humorist and her various re- citals last evening gained for many friends, Particularly graphic was ner recital of the *“Sinking of the Titanic.” In this she was aided by Miss McPhee at the piano. Miss McPhee is also an accomplished sing- er and drew forth much applause with her soprano solos. Miss Newell, the third member of the trio, favored with her violin selections and was encored- many times. For an open- ing number of the Chautauqua, the Sheehan Concert company is excellent. B. R. Showalter, president of the Chautauqua organization delivered the opening address in which he stat- ed that he was speaking for the guarantors when he welcomed Chau- tauqua into Berlin. In his talk Mr. Showalter told of the sale of ticket A little over one-half of the re- auired amount had been sold by the opening of the performance last night. The remaining number of tickets have been divided among the guarantors and they will make an attempt to sell them for if they do not they will have to pay for all left over. At the conclusion of his ductory speech Mr. Showalter duced Merritt Hopkins, superintend- ent of the Chautauqua, to Berlin people. Mr. Hopkins was applauded upon his entrance and soon won the hearts of all those present. In a pleasing and novel manner he opened the program with lantern slides on which were typed the choruses of popular sonzs. The audience joined in on singing these songs. Many old- time songs were also sung and put the audlence in a good mood for the excellent entertainment which was later provided by the above named concert company. Mr. Hopkins at the his talk introduced Miss Lorine Roth, who will act as play supervisor for the children during the engagement of the Chautauqua in town. Miss Roth gave a short address which was of particular interest to the children in the audience. She told of how there were 100 treasure ships lost in the Town of Berlin and urged all voungsters to go about the town early this morning and look for them. Three of the ships contained lucky numbers and would zive the possess sors a free ticket to the junior C tauqua The junior Chautauqua met at 9 o'clock this morning at which time a mayor and other city officers were elected. The parade evening. is her intro- intro- conclysion of at 6 o’clock last eve- aing was the truly opening feature of |1 Skin Tortured Babies Sleep the Chautauqua. In this parade, to which any boy or girl was eligible, were seen many disguises such as negroes, fairies, Charlie Chaplin imi- tators and several others. Following the parade ihe children held a story telling hour with Miss Roth. They were then extended an invitation to sce the show given by Miss Sheehan’s company. Unusual Disturbances. A very large group of Kensington young men were present last evening in a very disturbing manner and it was necessary for Mr. Hopkins to tell them to leave the grounds. His re- quest, however, was not heeded and the boys or rather young men paid no attention to his remarks and con- finued in making unusual disturb- ances. It is hoped that a local con- stable will be present at the grounds this evening to take care of the mat- ter. The noises made by the unruly parties were very disturbing to the audience who were keenly interested at was going on on the stage. Perhaps ‘those on the outside of the ground thought they were having fun and getting other people’s “‘goat.” They might have succeeded in their first motive but those within the tent were well educat:d enouh to realize that it was merely a gang of would-be rowdies attempting some of their smart work, which gets them nothing. The conse Concession Stand. The concession stand at the Chau- tanaua is m charge of John A and Join Thompson. Program Toda At this afternoon’s session of the chautauaqua the Colonial Maids ren- dered a pleasing program. They will also render a musical prelude at § a'clocl: tonight and will ba followed by the lecture entertairment in cos- tume “Songs and Stories of the Red Man” to be given by Albert and Mar- tha Gale. The feature of the third days’ program will be the Broadway success, “Her Husband's Wife.” Lyon-Baldwin Nuptials. Wiliiam Adelbert Lyons and Miss Jennie Baldwin were married at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon at the home of the bride’s father, George H. Baldwin in Kensington. Only immediate rela- tives of the family were present. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Carleton Hazen, pastor of the Ken- slngton Congregational church. Fol- Jowing the wedding the couple left on an extended honeymoon trip and will be at home to their friends on Farm- ington voad, Kensington, after Octo- ber 1. /A\nrlllul Picnic Held.
