The coming week in theatrical circles
VIII be one long to be remembered by
the people of Anaconda. At the Mar
garet there will be two nights of high
class drama, on Monday and Tuesday
nights, and on Friday and Saturday
there will be grand opera of kind
never before heard in this city. Be
sides these two brilliant engagements
there will be at the Union two plays
by stock companies and Adgie and her
den of lions. For those who love the
atricaI amusement the week is full of
their especial source of diversion.
Tonight at the Margaret the famous
Fraw1ey Stock company opens a two
nights engagement. This company is
a favorite with Montana theater-goers
and each succeeding year the company
has played to increasing business. To-
night the great war drama .'Shenan-
doah" will be presented. The play is
one of the strongest ever written and
is based upon the late war between the
North and the South Throughout the
piece runs very pretty vein of love.
The principal parts will be taken by
Frank Worthing and Miss Blanche
Bates, whose ability is SO we'll known
that comment is useless. In their
hands the love scenes in Shenandoah"
become so natural and so true to life
that the audience becomes spellbound.
The Frawley company. while in the
main as it was last year. has been
strengthened by additions from the
New York play houses. The advance
sale of seats for Shenandoah is so
large as to be remarkable and 1T is a
safe bet that when the curtain rises
tonight there will not be vacant seat
in the house.
The Frawley's production of Sue"

day night, will be one of the best ever
seen in this city. The cast of Sue" is
as follows:

The short engagement of the Del
Conte Italian Grand Opera company at
the Margaret next Friday and Satur-
day nights will be an event long to be
remembered in musical and society cir

her music with such purity of tone and
the correct method to correspond with
the, dramatic situations. that one can
