Tuesday evening. was May Wells. daugh-
ter Of the actor l.. F. Beatty, who died in
Olympia fifteen years ago, and whose re-

the age Of six years. when her fathers
company played In this place. She is now
81 years OF age and has developed into an
actress Of no ordinary merit. Had the

present Tuesday night who do not always
respond 10 the performances given under
the Howe management.
