EAST LAKE THEATRE.
Jefferson Stock Company Continues
 To Draw Large Audiences.


 Without exception the largest and most enthusiastic audience of the sea- son greeted the Jefferson Stock Com pany in their first production of My Old Kentucky Home." The scene, which Is very pretty one, is laid around the ranch of an old Kentuckian, and there are some very thrilling scenes, with now and then enough comedy to evenly balance the play.
 George McReynolds, who was seen in the leading role as Frank Layson, was very clever indeed. MT. McRey- holds is a great actor; in fact, is far superior to the average actor seen in a repertoire snow.
 Frank Kendall was seen to advant- age as Joe Lowery. MT. Kendall is also a good actor and has made many friends since coming to this city.
 Mamie Dale as Madge Brierly also deserves special mention for her clever work.
 All in all, the performance of My old Kentucky Home" was very clever, and deserves a large audience tonight.
 The specialties between the acts by Pete Seymour and Keiffer and Dia- mond were good and well received.
 My Old Kentucky Home" will be the bill again tonight, tomorrow mati- nee and tomorrow night. On Thurs day night there will be an entire change in the bill as well as the spe- cialties.
