COME ON TIME
As the theatrical sjasin hi? just open
ed here it would be well to call the
attention of the patrons of tne opera
house to the fact that they can confer a
great favor upon the management also
the patrons by arriving at the theatie in
time to become seated before the curtain
goes up for the first act. Straggles not
only loose the benefit of seeing the fi.-st
of the bill, but also prevent those who
did come in time from receiving the
benefits of their promptness. No one has
the right to disturb others. Come on time
or wait for the beginning of the next act.
