Lothrop's Grand Opera House.

One of the best attractions yet an
nounced at this popular house is that for
the present week. Steele Mackaye's
powerful sensational drama, "Money
Mad" Mr.. Mackaye, also known as the
author OF "Haxel Kirke" and other
notable dramatic productions, has Gre
ated In "Money Mad" play which meets
unqualified approval in all the leading
theatres of the land. Its story is full OF
interest, its plot direct and progressive,
situations striking and dialogue brig hit and
crisp.
The scenery employed includes some
remarkable effects. Ihe Chicago draw
bridge scene is said to be one of the most
perfect pieces Of stage mechanism ever
attempted IN the American stage.
The story Is that Of a nephew who
plots to murder his rich uncle to obtain
his millions. He believes he has done so.
1t turns out, however, that son of the
millionaire, who had been stolen away in
childhood and brought up to life of
crime, succeeds in saving the victim from
the river into which he had been thrown,
and then there comes a clearing up OF
the plot. The organization of crooks to
which the play introduces the audience
is a leading feature in the action of the
story.
The star OF the week, Mrs. ]. Clinton
Hall, is a new conner to Lothrop's forces.
She hss achieved an enviable reputation
elsewhere in the part OF Aunt Phillips,
and has made the part practically her
own. She will be supported bylJ. Francis

KeIth's Opera House.
II is an unquestioned and unquestIon-
bic fact that no production in many years
has possessed so many elements OF unus-
ual novelty as "Yon Yonson," which will
be seen at Keith's Opera House next week.
Gus Heege, the originator Of the Scandi-
navian dialect comedy in "Yon Yonson,"
has given theatrical history a character so
quaint, So original, so clearly lined that
the impersonation cannot fail to stand
boldly out among the most celebrated
portrayals Of the American drama. The
scenic and mechanical equipments of
lyon Yonson" are the most ella borate and
effective produced In recent years, the
great log jam scene I'm particular being
fairly thrilling I'm its marvellous realism.
