and again and will be moro deugnted each
time. Seriously speaking the offering In

this season. It will not be as serious and
ponderous- as "Everyman," but there will
be a blamed sight more fun In It and It
will ' please moro of the people. It In
eludes tho best talent on the vaudeville
stage, and although this statement may
sound-a little extravagant,, we will prove
it to you If you will attend just one per
fo'rmance. The leading feature for the
week will be tho Great Eastern Trio,
which comes here fresh from a success
ful Summer's run on -the Empire Roof
Garden in New York. Following this act
