C, SATURDAY, MAY 91 9 14.: FIRST DAY OF CHAUTAUQUA High Class Attractions Mark Opening of Programme Ben Greet Play ers Appear Tonight. :.. . Wilmington yesterday -had her first experience with . a Chautauqua, and while the opening performance yester day afternoon was attended by a scan ty audience of women with a sprink- ling of men, by last night things had begun to get into full swing, and it is confidently expected that before the week is past there, will be standing room only for the attractions in the big tent at 11th and Market streets. That there will be high class attractions is indicated by those of the first day, for there was certainly enough variety to satisfy the most exacting, and talent of the highest order. The Ben Greet Dlayers will present tonight "Twelfth Night," and this af ternoon Edward Amherst Ott will lec- This mornihe at 11 o'clock Mr. Wal lace Bruce Amsbary twill begin his se ries of literary interpretations, which will be a rare treat to . the people of the city. The Harmony Concert com pany will aDoear this afternoon and to night. They have the reputation of Deme nieh class entertainers ana win furnish a pleasant introduction to the lecture this afternoon ana tne piay to night. The famous Dunbar ell Ringers and Male Quartette oDened the Chau tauqua yesterday, with a variety oi sonsrs and musical selections. They were equally at home in both instru mental and vocal music, but their spe cial feature was the performance with several hundred 'bells. They were es pecially popuilar with the children, but the old folks liked it, too. There was a delightful variety of pathos and hu mor. - Judge Geo. D. Alden. with inimitable humor and abounding enthusiasm that was at once contagious, opened the se rious side of the show yesterday after noon with one of -the best addresses ever delivered in this city, on "The Needs of the Hour." He declared that it was about the smallest audience he had ever addressed at a Chautauqua, but that did not keep his address from being the less interesting. The individual return to the sanity of honesty" was the greatest need of the present age, Judge Alden declared, and then he proceeded to lambast grafters and grafting in high and low circles, especially in the low, in a fashion that would satisfy the most enthusiastic reformer. It is an age of gold, the sneaker declared, and it is not alone among the mighty rich, but the spirit is evident in the smallest trader. . He discussed his subject under jpur heads: First, the commercial; secona, the political; third, the domestic, ana fourth, the religious. He passed the second and third divisions of his sud ect by with a few brief remarks, ow ing to the shortriess of the time. r'Man's disregard of God Is respon sible for his disregard of his fellow- man, was the way ne expressea in terse and hard hitting sentences what he conceived to be wrong with this age from a religious standpoint. "Man can never respect himself , unless he respectshis God," said he. Then he told the story of his conversion from a rank atheist into a follower of the meek and lowly Christ. That was a story that was worth going miles to hear and those who heard know why it is that ' he can drive home truths that while they are familiar to every one yet are often forgotten- As an opening number, Judge Alden was in every sense of the word all that one could have wished him to be. To give his address in detail is impossible here, but to hear him is well worth the time spent. Last night John B. Ratto held down the boards with his impersonations. He certainly possesses the art of put ting it over," and whether or not he is the world's greatest impersonator he is the best that has come this way in a long time. He carried his au dience with him and one minute had them laughing with him while per haps the next moment they would be ready to weep.- ' He was all that he had been advertised to be and more. Ben Greet, under whose direction the Ben Greet Players appear on the Chautauqua programme this evening, has been connected with the stage for over 30 years. It is said that he has trained more actors than any man living at the present time. The splen did companies of this famous English dramatist have acted each year in London, Oxford, Cambridge, Stratford-upon-Avon, . and other places in "Shakespeare's England." Ben Greet stages his plays in Elizabethan man ner. The Ben Greet players have ap peared in- every prominent city in America, their first run in New York City covering 200 nights. Mr. Gr.eet's company was the first to be invited to the White House grounds. Lovers of dramatic art in this city are highly pleased over the selection of "Twelfth Night." as a vehicle for these well known players. There are IS actors In the company, competent and experienced performers.

It soon got worse aai-my face was all spotted, and rough, and iV itched me very much at night, and caused me no end of discom fort. After a month or so, pimples and ; blackheads began to show, first in small numbers and then gradually covering my entire face. It, was awful. The pimples were sore and the rash was itchy and my face had a most un , sightly appearance.- I could get no relief. Kesmol Soap and Resinol Oint ment, caused me instant relief. - By the time another jar of Resinol Ointment and , cake of Resinol Soap were gone, I can truthfully say that it was a com plete cure. My face had assumed its former color and looks, due to Resinol 6oap and Resinol Ointment. They are, I think, the best for any skin trouble. f(Signed) Roberfc Troyano, 269 E. 21st Street.
