The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-04-12

prosperous weeks the theatre has
known for a long time past; it was q
week, in fact, almost unequafled in
its history for one thing, and that is
the giving of six consecutive perform
ances which charged a dollar and a
half admission; of the six nights, five
of them were given to excellent bust
ness, and the closing one was the
greatest of all. Truly business is on
the UP grade in Salt Lake. Mansfield
was more than pleased with his recep-
ton and the author of "a Milk White
Flag" "a Texas Steer" "a Brass
Monkey" "a Hole in the Ground" "a
Contented Woman" "The Midnight
Bell" "a Temperance Town." "a
Bunch of Keys" etc, who has taken
q princely fortune out of Salt Lake
since he first began to send his plays
here, surely has no reason to think his
popularity with us is on the wane
From the spectacular standpoint "a
Milk White Flag is the best thing
Hoyt ever wrote; it's rollicking fun and
the satirical yet pleasant way in which
the well of Hoyt's lnumor is very far
from running dry; dramatically and in
trinsically, we rank it below the Texas
Steer" but it surely comes in a close
second behind that popular play.
Mansfield's four nights were rental
dates with the theatre; for almost the
first time in the history of the house.
Al Hayman rented it outright for
set price, made d nightly guarantee to
Mansfield and took his chances: the
nightly guarantee was $500 and even
after paying the gifted star his 81. 900
and Mr. Burton his rent, Hayman
emerged from the big end of the horn.
