A PRETTY ROMANTIC DRAMA
"Sag Harbor" an Excellent Production
and Well Presented by a Com
petent Company.

Imagination can do great deal at
times, but it would be hard to picture
a more fitting finale for the excellent
. work Of James A. Herne, than his lat
est achievement, that beautiful and pa
thetic New England play Sag Harbor."
Resplendent with touches Of comedy
home life and full Of interesting. and
at times embarrassing situations, Mr..
Herne threw into his concluding pro-
duction all that goes to make tran
script of the every day happenings of
the romantic American people.
shore Acres" was great. Sag Har-
bor' Is greater. In fact, /. Is beautiful,
impressive, humorous and. above all,
true to nature.
When Herne put his heart and soul
into the pretty love story he produced
a piece which can be made a renowned
success or an awful failure. The sit
uations are unique and withal difficult
to handle. Each part is a portion Of
the life of the play and each actor the
stimulant to carry the story on to its
harmonious ending. Thanks to Messrs.
Liebler & Co.. who are now handling
Sag Harbor" Butte theater-g going peo-
pie have had an opportunity to see In
it's entirety the play which is destined
author-actOr.
Well balanced in almost every part.
the company which presented the sue
cessor Of "Shore Acres to the patrons
of the Grand last night made decided
hit with Butte theater-goers. Judging
the quality Of the production by the con-
tinued applause and general favor with
| which it was received last night. the
plays run for three nights here should
be all that any management could de-
sire. The house was filled and it viii
no doubt be packed tonight and to-
morrow night.

able to carry it through. She moves
with the grace and ease becoming the

charming personality.
florist Robinson's presence with the
company adds largely to the success
