FUN FOR EVERYONE.
A. T. FRAME PROVIDES LEADING
ATTRACTIONS FOR THE PUBLIC.
He Pays Graceful Tribute to fhe Eden
of the West---The Stars Who
Will Shine at the Park
Theater Next Month. NJ

The Park theatre will open with great
splendor on Monday, April End. A. T..
Frame, the popular proprietor, has pre-
pared announcements which will take the
town by storm. Artists are now engaged
on these, but the Tribune is able to de-
scribe the show bill as if it were com
plete.
1t is headed "Great Falls, the Garden
City Of Montana, the Eden Of the West,
the Land Of Picturesque Scenery, the
Coming Metropolis" After this introduc-
tion, so full Of local pride, Mr.. Frame
puts in good word for the city, with
those who are of practical turn of mind.
He says: "Great Falls is the finest sum
mer resort in the West. Fishing, hunt
ing, boating and its picturesque scenery
will make it pleasant as well as profitable
to all professionals playing here. Per-
formers playing at the Coliseum Theater,
Heleua, will find it "a small jump. Par
ties coming from the East will find it to
their advantage to take the Manitoba
railroad, as it runs direct to Great Falls,
the Niagara Of the West" ".
AN ARRAY OF TALENT.
But the attractions which Mr. Frame
will offer are the crowning feature.
They will include the monarchs Of musi-
cal comedy, Billy Kennedy and Stanley
Archie, the funniest as we'll as the
most artistic musical team in the pro-
fession. They will appear in their new
act, entitled "Musical Cranks," introduc-
ing musical solos, duets and combination
playing on a wilderness Of instruments,
interspersed with original and mirth-
provoking fancies which are entirely
their own.
This fun will be succeeded by the first
appearance here of the .'Wonder of the
Nineteenth Century, the Great and Only
Laura Ashby." She will exhibit some Of
her great original juggling and bal
ancing; also the wonderful Japanese Fire
Bowl. Laura is the only lady in the
world who performs the wonderful feat
OF balancing five lighted lamps. She
also introduces many novel tricks. Miss
Ashby will undoubtedly be popular
favorite. ,'r
The company, on the opening night,
will include also the schooled vocalist
Miss Amy Santley, the balladist, who
comes from Emerson's Standard Thea
ter, San Francisco, Cal. This gifted ar
tist has cultivated voice, a splendid
wardrobe and a great repertoire. The
facial delineator Harry Brady will appear
in his wonderful limitations of leading
actors, which always bring down the
house.
The performance would be incomplete
without dancing, so an artist of rare abil
ity, Miss Amelia Garenfeu, has been en-
gagged as premier danseuse and vocalist.
The inimitable Irish and Dutch come
dian, John Germ, who is business man
ager, will appear in some popular pieces
which will, in themselves, be great at
traction. Mr.. GERMS portrait, which will
appear on the show bills, represents him
as bright, intelligent gentleman, who is
evidently full Of good humor. Adele
Germ, the serio comic vocalist and sketch
artistic, will also add the charms of her
presence to the performance. The stage
manager, w. H. Davenport, is widely
known as character actor and vocalist.
He will take part in the fun and will di-
rect the order of the amusements
@ A GOOD STOCK COMPANY.
These details outline the attractions
which Mr.. Frame has secured. The stock
Of ladies will include Ida Mason,
Fannie White, Annie Clark and Kittie
Sheppard. New attractions will be CON
stantly added for the amusement of the
large crowds Of people who will be here
in the spring. To crown all there will be
popular prices and comfortable, elegant
house which has been entirely refitted.
