Ohio managers free Of cost, Is giving
summer theatricals at Oakland, Nd,
next season he will be on the road with
a new sensational play, The Limited

The roof gardens OF the New York
theatres are doing q fine business these
days. For several years the Casino has
monopolized the open air concerts, but
others seeing the success they were
jumped into the business. The shows
a: these places are Of coarse order. In
fact the crowd in attendance does not
appear to pay half the attention to the
performances as they do to appetizing
drinks and other sights TO be seen.
1t is understood that there will be a
general rafting OF old bones at the
Opera House the coming season. The
new management intends to get a hustle
on and give its patrons their moneys
worth. Last year there were a number
of attractions for which good round
dollar was deposited for a seat, that
were not worth over quarter-in fact
were unfit for such an amusement house.
Shows that play oLher places at 10, 20
and 30 cents have been struggled into
the Opera House at full prices. An In
stance was the appearance OF Uncle
Isaac" last season. This show played at
the cheapest theatre in Pittsburg, but
got dollar seat in Wheeling. Fortu-
nately, the crowd was slim.
Francis Wilson's engagement In San
Francisco thus far has Lot been sensa-
tional success, but has been fairly re-
numerative.
Fay Tempieton is going to star in
comic opera. A hacker has been found
and the Templeton Opera Company will
be revived.
The sale OF seats for Pains great
spectacle, "A Night in Pekin," Is now
open at the offices in the Chamber OF
Commerce Building.
"AcushIa Machere" is the name OF
the play 10 which w. A. Mack will star
next season. Fred Hodson will be man
ager:
Philadelphians have started move
ment to arrange for a testimonial per-
Torrance In honor OF Nine. Janauschek,
who is soon to retire from the stage full
of honors, but unfortunately with no
large fortune. Janauschek Is SO years
old, and has been playing AZ years, the
last % of which have been devoted al
most exclusively TO this country.
Having had her annual farewell In
this country, Patti will now start In on
a series of farewells In England, alter
mating them with continuance OF her
farewels in America. Forty-seven years
from now Mrs. Patti will still be on her
travels, saying farewell and singing
Home, Sweet Home" with all her
youthful jollity.
Mrs. Pat Rooney and her two clever
daughters, Katie and Matte, will be
seen In Lord Rooney" next season.
The roof gardens are packed every
evening and variety performance given
which is only fair.
