being swollen to double their normal

A Renowned Company.

The Pages, accompanied by their own COM
pany, comprising eighteen dramtic and vaudeville
artists, will open a weeks engagement at the
Academy of Music, Monday, April 23, presenting
a change OF bill at each performance. The cont
pany is strongly recommended by the press and
the theater management throughout the west
as one of the best popular price attractions in
that section. The play selected for the introduc-
tion OF the company to Scranton's theater goers
is the strong melodrama, entitled 1.-TWO Nights
in Rome" a performance that is calculated to
please the most blase Lillian Paige will inter
pret the role Of "Stephanic," and be supported
by a cast who are specially adapted to their re-
spectiye characters. 1.-TWO Nights in Rome" is
one Of the strongest acting bills in the company S
repertoire, and is constructed in such a manner
as to please every lover of dramatic work. Al
though a spicy vein Of comedy runs throughout
the plot there is said to exist none of the SO.
called "horse.play'' in its makeup. In addition
TO presenting notable dramatic creations, the
conspany will offer a continuous performance. In
other words, those usual tiresome curtain waits
will be entirely eliminated by the introduction
between acts OF eminent vaudeville artists.
Prices, 10, 20 and 80 cents except Monday night.
on which occasion ladies will be admitted to best
reserved seats for Is cents.
