regular" prices. But no one believed the
little manager when he said it. Perhaps
the public appreciation of Mise Archer's
engagement Will teach him that local
,theater goers are discriminating. d
By the way, the Grand management is
being advertised away from home. The
current issue Of the New York Clipper
publishes the following from its Butte
correspondent:

land. manager), the Rentz-Santley Co.,

Many of the attractions at this house SO
tar this season rave been of an inferior
character. and the daily papers Of the
city. notably the Inter Mountain, have
commenced a crusade against the man.

lease expires in September. John Nc
CURE, the former manager Of the house,
WHIT is now president of the board of di-
rectors, but who two years ago gave up
active participation in theatrical affairs,
1T is hoped may be induced to reconsider
his determination. and from pressure
which is being brought to bear upon him
ny the citizens Of Butte it is likely he will
succeed the present management.

CROWD AT SUTIONS.

Every seat in Sutton's new theater was
crowded last night to witness the stock
company's excellent rendition of Uncle
Toms Cabin. Miss Lulu Sutton APP
peared in the role of '"Topsy'' and she
sustained the part with credit, and sweet
little Ollie King, made an ideal Eva. The
other characters We're very good, and the
spectacular effect, at the finale, when
the gates of heaven open to receive the
white soul OF dying Eva was beautiful. i.
Aside from the play the specialties are
wei worth going to see. Graceful, sup
pie Cyrene captivated the audience with
the bost cake-walking that has ever been
seen In Butte. viii Rising and pretty,
Lillian Kemble presented a clever oper-
attic sketch, "Nanki Poo, Jr.," and Baby
Ruth ang and danced in her inimitable
way.
One of the artists who opened an en-.
gagenent at Sutton's last night is Or
ne,do. the famous equilibrist. who per-
forms some very difficult feats of hard
jumping. 4
For the price Uncle Dick Sutton is Civ
ms the best show ever seen in Butte. and
the amusement loving public of Butte
appreciate it. The crowd was so great
at yesterday afternoons matinee that
patrons were turned away.
