! George w. Monroes engagement at the
Grand Opera House tonight promises to
eclipse his former ones as big as they were
10 receipts, 1t is not Of all surprising, as
Monroe is prime favorite here aud his
name alone is sufficient to fill the house.
I, In Her Majesty The Cook he has struck u
''verltable gold mine and from all the re-
tyorts 1t Is the greatest success In an artis.
ltic sense OF any Of his always funny plays.
In here Majesty we see him in an entirely
NEW character creation, inasmuch as he
never before gave us one exactly 30 strong
In outline. In this instance we are to see
him In the character Of the domineering
Bridget Moloney Her Majesty who rules
the household and gets everybody and
everything near her topsy turvy before the
FIRST act Is halt over. Then 1t takes the
balance Of the evening to get things
Strengthened out. His supporting COM
pany is a big ono ana not a stick in it.
The chorus Of pretty girls is a chorus in
she literal sense of the word. Shape!y
girls and really pretty ones. Ten come
dians the pink Of the high class vaudeville

making and it is safe to say at least that
Wilmington will pay him big tribute in
attendance this evening.
