SUCCESS OF THE KINDERGARTEN ENTERTAINMENT

ASSURED BY THE ADVANCE

SALE OF TICKETS — TREASURY

WILL BE REPLENISHED.

The date for the raising of the curtain on the final number of the series of free kindergarten entertainments, that have been occupying the major part of the attention of the people during the present week, has arrived, and the third, and only real big show goes off today, afternoon and evening, at Westside park.

The bicycle parade was big, the business men's parade bigger, but the biggest show of them all will be seen in the pavilion today. The sale of tickets by the canvassing committee ceased last evening, and the ladies and gentlemen in charge made a big days work yesterday, and the effort to make all feel that their presence is most earnestly solicited at the entertainment today, and if there is a single person in the city that was not asked to purchase a ticket, the ladies extends to them a most cordial invitation to call at the park this afternoon or evening and they will be supplied.

The school is open to all, children of the poor as well as the rich people, and the entertainments today are thoroughly in keeping with the management of the kindergarten schools, everybody is welcome, so come.

The matinee performance will begin promptly at 2:30 o'clock, in the evening the show will be repeated, beginning promptly at 8 o’clock. Those taking part in the performance will not come to the city for supper, as arrangements have been made by caterer Hummel to feed 2000 persons on the grounds with sandwiches, coffee and other whole some food. This ensures the “actors” being in good condition, physically. A per cent of the proceeds from this source will go to the school.

Superintendent Dubois has arranged to handle the people to and from the park, on his street cars very rapidly, but those who can go early are requested to do so, and give room for those less fortunate, as there will be hundreds of them. One half of the entire receipts of the street railway system today, goes to the Kindergarten, and full fare will be charged on all lines, The indications last night were that near 5,000 tickets would be disposed of for the two shows and those who have worked so dilligently [sic] diligently for the success of the venture, were happy.

A full rehearsal of the parts was made last night at the pavilion, and all of the hundred persons who will take part were present. Mr. Charles Murray, the comedian, was in charge of the rehearsal and will manage the production of the show today.

From what was witnessed by an out­sider last night, the show will by far excell [sic] excel anything that has ever been presented to Muncie by home talent, and those fortunate enough to have a ticket will be more than pleased, as there are a couple features, which we pledged not to mention at this time, that are alone worth double the price of admission.

The following is the cast of characters that will entertain you, with but a single place to fill, and she will be imported from Anderson. The show will posi­tively be given on time, weather or no weather. Come early and get front seats:
