Hello. Bill.


In these days of hustle and hustle, it
is usually the survival of the fittest," al
though unfortunately the Attest seems
frequently to be those who have resorted
to means not altogether justifable or
proper to gain the coveted end. Deceit
may prosper for while, but he who prac-
tees 1t should remember that John Jones
who sold sand for sugar is now out of
business. 1t Is perhaps unfortunate that
in it's amusements, the public are most
frequently misled, sometimes inadvertent-
~, but more often by design Farce - a
word that has been much abused 1t has
been tackled onto connections of dreary
twaddle and indecent inuendo until now
theatre patrons fight shy of farce until
they know 1t or know of it. 1t is with
pleasureable anticipation, therefore, that
the advent of that really excellent and
successful farce, Hello, Bill,'' is an
nounced. 1t will be the attraction tonight
and tomorrow night at the Opera HOUSE.

Braumig Dramatic Company.
The Braunig Dramatic Company, which
opens a weeks engagement at the Grand
Opera House this evening. is without the
least doubt or question, the best all around
repertoire company on the road, being full
ly equipped with every necessary contris =
ance to give a first-class and finished per-
Torrance. Unlike a great many COM
panies, special attention is given TO the
staging of the pieces. Mr.. Lawrence Mars
ton, who staged the big production of
ben Hur," at the Broadway theatre,
was hired at an enormous expense TO stage
each play in the repertoire OF this
organization. Each person is engaged es-
pecially for the parts assigned to them.
Miss Mitchell, the leading lady, is without
an equal in her line. Other people in the
company we'll known in this city are
Frank Munnell, II. Preston Coffin. Burt
Werner, Harry Crosby and William Pow
ell. Miss LIE Moyne is the character wo-
man, and has appeared in this city many
times with big productions. Master Sam
my Brown, 1.-The Boy Soprano" and Miss
Lottie Zenobia have been specially en-
gagged to break the tiresome waits between
the acts with high class singing and dane
ing specialties. The usual matinee will
