Maggie Mitchcll's appearance on a
Council Bluffs stage last evening was
the occasion, as is always the case when
she visits this city, of a general turning
out of all the old time theater goers,
who have time and again been charmed
by this greatest of American soubrettes.
Time has indeed dealt very leniently
with her, and she captivates the hearts
of her audience as in former year by
the perfect naturalness of her acting.
May she long be spared to enjoy the
success which is so justly hers.
