The Olympia Theater presents a
genuine dramatic novelty next week
in dialect comedy that represents a
phase of character that is entirely new
to the stage. The play is "Ole

ventures of Scandinavian who &C.

putting it, has only been in "dees
kontry wan yare, femt and sax wake"
and gets into all sorts of ludicrous
scrapes. The comedy has been de-
scribed as a huge laugh from begin
ming to end and poor "Ue's" trials
and troubles are a source of merri-
ment and laughter every place he
goes.
