THEATRICAL.

Manager Dan. Ferguson is meeting with
much success so far this season, both as to
the class of attractions and the attendance at
the theatre. He started out with the deter
minatiOn to give the people of Shenandoah
the best show town in the county-frst-c class
amusement and is therefore reaping the
benefit. The manager of theatre is the last
one who is likely to deceive his patrons but
he constantly runs the risk of being deceived
himself by the companies he books. In
the first place he knows that poor shows
are not profitable, but are detrimental in
leBving bad effect upon subsequent enter
tainments. Manager Ferguson, therefore, is
eager to please his patrons, but it should be
remembered that he is not iron-clad against
the fakirs in the profession any more so than
are the managers of other towns, who are
likewise deceived time and again.
