ing audiences at the Grand opera house

marked improvement with each per-
Torrance. Charles Rattle is quite at
home in the character of McClockey,
and Frank Cutter plays the part of
Scudder unexceptionally. Carl Ashley
Mears as George Peyton does better
each time, and A. W. Breese Is an ideal
Uncle Pete. Lillian Phillips as Paul
wins applause whenever she appears,
and Edith May Root interprets the wild
owed Mrs. Peyton truthfully. Dora
Sunnysde was never better represented
than by Mae Jean Colt, and Mary Dud-
ley Burk as Zoe the Octoroon, has the
sympathy Of the audience throughout.
E. B. Beers as Wah-no-tee has but lit
tie to say but much to do and does it
with great JUNCTION. AS Pondexter. the
auctioneer, E. B. Manville does sur
prisingly well, while Captain Rats, the
eccentric and bighearted commander
of the river steamer Magnolia, is faith
fully portrayed by Hervey Howard.
There will be performances this and

morrow at the usual hour Ladies at
the matinee are admitted to all parts of

THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY"

THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY"
The stage knows no more indefatib-
! ible producer of plays than William
H. Crane, and each season finds him
exploiting at least one new work. The
new play this season and the one which
will be presented at the Hyperion thea
ter on Wednesday evening, May 8, is
called 1.-THE Head of the Family" and
is said to be one of the best and bright
~est comedies this actor has ever had.
The New York critics found much to
say in favor of the work. Much of the
charm of the play is due to the fact
that in it Mr.. Crane has most con-
genial character to portray. As usual
Mr.. Crane has gathered about him a
number of clever people and he is given
credit for staging and dressing the
work with disregard for expense and
much good taste. Sale of seats opens
Monday. Prices $3.50, 81 and 75c.
