Willette Taylor Co. Leaves Good Impression at Frankfort.

With the presentaTTon' “of :v His Only Son,” the Willette Taylor Stock Company closed its week’s engagement at the Blinn last night and ended their second week’s work since the company was organized and started out of Rensselaer, Ind. That the company is ahead of the average repertoire show is a safe statement to make. The characters used in all the productions offered by the company are well fitted for their parts and are capable of giving high class performances. The company is headed by Cash Tomlinson, one of the most popular men now in repertoire, and under his capable direction the company promises to become one of the best stock organizations in the central west. The company"' is managed by Mr. J. Hu Ellis, a well known theatrical man, who has been associated with shows that have visited this Gity for the past thirty years. While in the city Mr. Ellis renewed acquaintances with many of the “boys” of days gone by and recalled many of the incidents that occurred wdien he came to this city with show’s years ago and played in the old town hall. He has the distinction of having served as mayor of Rensselaer for twelve years and although he was long in the harness as an official he is more than evtr interested in theatrical work. Among the plays that have been presented by the Willette Taylor players since they opened their engagement here are: "His Only Son,” “The Confession,” “On the Road to Casse Grande” and a number of other high class bills, all of which were ably presented and pleased Blinn patrons.—Frankfort Morning Times.
