Closely associated with these evils Is the
popular passion for unwholeSo nens.s,

Whoever watches the daily press cannot
miss the evidence OF shameful degradation

Oh the race course. Aud the tendency to

seems largely forgotten its opportunities
Of uselessness unoccupied, the vgilancs

The Sawtelle Company will be at

The Sawtelle Company will be at
the Opera House all next week
commencing May 7. Apropos OF
this company the New Bedford,
Massachusetts, Times, November
s. 1890, said; The Sawtelle Ora
matte Company, which has been
playing to such large audiences at
the New Bedford theatre this week
is the oldest organization of the
sort whichIs now on the road, and
has ell ioyed since its start a Sue
cess which isrcmarkable. The idea
of forming stock company which
should produce the best play at
greatly reduced prices was once
looked upon in the theatrical Cir
clcs as a most foolish scheme, i'm.
possible of successful realization.
In spite of this lack Of popularity,
however, the idea has been carrie d
out and with most gratifying re-
suits and large profits have been
earned by managers i'll spite of the
low scale Of prices for which the
seats are SOFA. Crowded houses
and clever work have made the
scheme possibility. Sawtelle Com
pany, which was the prisoner in the
popular priced movement az stated
above, was established by J. AL.
Sawtelle in 1870.
The theatre going public have
been awaiting with high expecta-
tons the coming of the Jessie
Sawtcllc Dramatic Company who
will play at the Opera House all
next week.
Manager Baglis has purchased
II bicycles OF V. V. Harrison and
they will be shown in the windows
