GREAT COMEDIAN
Nat Goodwin May Play
Here in July.
Greatest Comedian On American
Stage After Jefferson
engagements to be Made.

| E. c. Macfarlane is in receipt of a
letter from Clay Greene, regarding
the proposed engagement of the great
American actor, Nat Goodwin, in Ho-
nolulu. Mr.. Goodwin was here last
autumn and played to enormous bust
ness during the one night he re-
manned. To a reporter Mr.. MacfarIane
said yesterday.
Il had a talk with Mr.. Goodwin
when he was here, and he seemed
anxious to come back and play a :ong-
.er engagement. 1 wrote him a month
or two ago, and by the last mail heard
from Clay Greene, who is looking out
for Mr.. Goodwins business. We have
an amusement company here and peo-
pie who will patronize frst-class at
fractions. Now is the time for the
company to make a success or failure
The Frawley Company is booked to
appear in September, but that is too
long to wait, when we can get d bot
ter attraction before then. Goodwin
wants a sure $4,000, and | am conf
dent there will be no difficulty to Sc
cure ii, for he has a large repertoire
OF plays, and a company of excellent
artists, better, perhaps, than any we
have yet seen, and as we have not
had a dramatic company since Deem
Der last, it seems to me that this is
the time to secure the best obtainable
when such an artist as Mr.. Goodwin is
ready to come.
Why, the F'rawley Company had a
season ticket sale of nearly 81, 900 rhe
first day. Goodwin should nearly dou-
BILE that amount. l am not afraid to
guarantee literally for a season CT
Mr.. Goodwin, provided the amusement
company will take hold of it. | have
seen Mr.. Scott, and think from what
he tells me that a meeting of the com
pary will be called before the Deigic
leaves for the Coast. We must 9cr
promptly, for Mr.. Goodwin wants TO
come here in July. If he does come. l
think the largest houses in the history
of the Opera House will be the result
The night Mr.. Goodwin appeared
here in November last, the receipts
were almost $1,000 on the one per
Torrance. and this without a line of
and with no previous an
1t will be remembered
that Marx, of the Frawley Company,
claimed the Opera House, and declined
10 let Mr.. Goodwin use it until several
citizens called on him
and expressed themselves in a man
ner which left no doubt of their feel
ings. 1t was whispered at the time
hat there was percentage considera
ton, also. before Marx would yield. It
was 3 p. m. when it was finally an
nounced that Mr.. Goodwin would ap-
pear. and in less than 10 minutes the
Hebron Drug Company, where the box
plan was OPEN was crowded 10 it's ca
pacity.
The play presented was ''The Gild-
