Deepening and Straightening of Channel of Kankakee to Be a Realisation at Last. A notice of the sale of .the Marble ditch was prepared today and will be published In every county where land was assessed for the construction of the ditch. The sale is to take place on Sept 16th at the east court room In Rensselaer. The ditch consists of the main ditch and seven short laterals. The estimated cost of construction is about $325,000. It is probable that a large number of dredge men will be here to bid on the job and that the rivalry will be intense. The name of Harry Green, comedian, is not by any means new to the fcheatre-goiing people of this community. Harry has been seen here quite often and is always welcomed by a good house to see his performances, and dt is with pleasure that we give him the glad hand for bringing something new and refreshing in “The Town FooL” You take no chances when you go to see ‘The Town‘Fool,” for the managementhas been with us before and we know. Harry Green’s reputation as an actor-comedian is wall known here. He was .here several times with his old comedy “EH and Tane,” and always made good. This time he comes in a comedy entirely* new, playing the part of d young man from Tennessee; and the critics say it is good. Green has this sea son introduced a new novelty. Floyd Warner, America’s best and most clever animal actor and doneer, plays the part of a polar .bear, and the counterfeit is so clever that a great many think it to be the real thing.
