AS TO ADJUSTMENTS.
The Theater-Why We Go-What We
Want To See When There,-Etc.

Man is the only animal that laughs.
Other animals cry and weep as man
does, but, he is the only animal that
is audibly mirthful. Hence, being q
laughing animal he wants to be
amused. He seeks his amusement
in a variety of ways. Some go to
meetings Of the city council, Others
go to Ilwaco, more go down to see
the Telephone come in, and few 60
to Alderbrook to play ball. But all
agree in "going to the show"
This last may seem singular, for
there is generally very little in "the
show to laugh at, and sometimes
cause for tears.

On several occasions the compa-
MES have not kept faith with the
public. They have cheated on some
Of the requirements, either cutting
out some Of the play, or substituting
actors for those named, or using
names of actors falsely, or some other
fraud, until many discriminating
theater goers have declared them
selves sick and tired OF being thus
caioled into paying for what they
didn't get. There are plenty people
here who have seen good acting and
heard good music in different parts oi
the world and naturally resent such
imposition as has been so frequently

Astoria used to be reckoned among
theatrical troupes, etc, as "a good
show town." From the days of John
Jack and Annie Firmin down to Alice
Harrison and Hot Water"
this place was counted on by the
travelling companies as good for a
paying house. But for the last two
years 1.-The show business" in Astoria
has not been highly profitable bust
ness to any one connected with it.
There are good many reasons for
that; the principal ones are first, the
troupes; second the theater itself
There are some as square, upright
and honest people among theatrical
professionals as can be met with in
any walk of life-and there are also
as big a lot of contemplate scrubs
running around with alleged Shows"
as ever went unwhipped. Though it
may sound hard, it is fact that one
kind of theatrical man is a beat; he
wants all he can get and is not will
ing to pay for anything. He delights
in false pretenses, and is never SO
happy as when he has inveigled the
public into believing they'll see some
thing better than he has to really
offer them. He doesn't care whether
it is the newspaper, or the theater
manager. or the bill poster, or the
hotel keeper, or the public, he is onto
every little trick to get away with the
most for the least or nothing at all
after beating the whole outfit. There
is another kind of theatrical man who
is gentleman, who knows what he
wants and is willing to pay for it. He
is generally lonesome, for cause. AT
ter the public have been fooled few
times, it is always the luck of the
really good troupe to come along and
play TO empty benches and go away
giving Astoria black eye.

That isn't the way it ought to be, but

occasionally.
Why? Well, because, on the stage
everything comes out all right; the
villain still pursues her, but he is
foiled; the bad man is doomed, the
good man gets his work in in great
