We Are King" is Guaranteed. NEXT TO HO-' :-v -, f- innr l-WEKRE READY r Walker Whitesides' great suc cess, "We Are King,";will be an unusual play at the opera house next Thursday night. v It is a highclass comedy byLeut Gor-l don Keane, author of "The Mag-"' ic Melody," ' and was used for three seasons by Mr. Whitesides as a staring vehicle. The action of the play is in Kahnburg, a small principality in Germany, and deals with the complications in trying to dethrone King Hec-; tor, a despot who has run. his kingdom into debt and ground down his subjects. A corre-1 spondent for the London Record, a light hearted fellow, wanders into Kahnburg in search of news. He is arrested as a spy. The Prime Minister and his fol lowers who are plotting to rid the kingdom of Hector, are so impressed with the correspond- j ent's marvelous resemblance to the king, that they induce him j to impersonate the king, who is away on a secret mission. Ven- j ner under the impression that' he is rendering the Court a favor, ; throws the palace open to the j wuiuiuu pwpie, juwbib but) taxes and gets in to all sorts' of ludic rous situations ... through his ig norance of Court affairs. Edmund Carroll and an ex cellent cast with complete scenic equipment will present the play here exactly as it has been given in all of the larger cities from New York to the Coast.
