The Programme,

OLIVER BYRON and his company Of com.
edians will be seen at the Bijou week of
October 81 He is accompanied by his talented
wife, Kate Byron. On Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday and Wednesday matinee and
Saturday evening he will present his ever
popular play "Across the Continent" and on
Thursday and Friday evenings and Saturday
matinee, "Ten Thousand Miles Away" which
is a sequel to ACROSS the Continent" Both
plays have been seen here number Of times,
and to Judge by the success they had here last
season, they have lost none of their hold on the
theater goers. There is an abundance of mirth,
and in each there is well-told story of
American life. The situations are thrilling
and keep the audience in attention from first
to last Byron's popularity is well known all
over this country, and as meiodramatic star
he has certainly made at least IA financial record
second to none in his class. 1t is not generally
known, but it is nevertheless true, that his wife,
Kate Byron, is a sister Of Ada Reban, Augustln
Daly's leading lady, and she is also sister Of
Arthur Rehan, the well-known manager. They
are of Irish parentage, and the family name is
Crhean, and it seems that Byron chose wisely
when he selected Kate Crhean for his better
half New scenery is being gotten up by Mr.
Tim Carroll, scenic artist of the Bijou, and
some realistic tableaux are promised.

at the Grand Opera House on next Monday
