Empire Theatre Company's Engage ment at Opera House Bill Tonight. ' The Empire Theatrical Company opened a three night's engagement at the Corvallis Opera - House last night. The offering was "A Brok en JJeart." and it held the attention of a fair-sized audien:e. The story deals with . the entanglement of a prosperous miner with a scheming adventuress, and the -situations re sulting are full of pathetic interest. The work of the entire cast was highly creditable. Mr, Clayton, as the miner, Mr. Brooks as "Jack" the Shakespearian tramp, and Miss Gresham as the adventuress per haps deserving special mention. Tonight, at the Opera House, The Empire Theatre company ' will present the five act comedy drama, entitled, '"The Diamond Necklace Robbery." This play tells a very pretty love story, one which appeals to the heart's best feelings and shows the great sacrifices often made in real life, by a true and de voted heart for the object of its af fection. The comedy element is very strong, which makes a well balanced play, and one which al ways pleases. "The Pride of Blue Canyon,"a four act comedy drama, will be the offering of the company tomorrow night. This play was written more with a .view to creating laughter, than to dramatic technique.- The first three acts are set in the famous Blue Canyon, the last in New York City. Those who enjoy farce com edy, will be well repaid for attending. Rugs! Rugs! Rugs! Rugs! Rugs!
