THE ROYAL BOX" Ushers' Bene-
fit at the Auditorium next Thursday
night, March 7th. under the manage
ment of L. M. LUCHS.
THE Royal Box" to be seen at the
Auditorium on Thursday, March 7th,
with Andrew Robson as the star, is one
of the dramatic successes of France,
England and America. 1t was origi-
nally acted in Paris by the great Fred
erick Lemaitre, was enormously sue
cessful in London, and the Coghlan
version originally produced in Mon
treal ran for four months at the Fifth
Avenue Theatre, New York. It's char
acters are those of London a century
ago, the roistering members of the
Royal Family, the actors of the old
Drury Lane Theatre. the beautiful
women of the diplomatic corps, aero
bats, jolly tavern-keepers, all the sorts
and conditions known in English
Capitol during one of its most pictur-
esqne periods; while the scenes pass
through the halls of the ambassadors,
the shady haunts of the then Prince Of
Wales, quaint old inns, and the dress
ing rooms and stage of the Theatre
Royal. For these characters clever
people were required, and for these
scenes stage settings of considerable
cost and historical accuracy.

JAMES j. JEFFRIES, Champion of
the world, at the Auditorium Wednes-
day night. March 9Th.
An immense amount of interest is
centered in the coming appearance of
James j. Jeffries at the Auditorium,
Wednesday night, March 9Th.
The Champion of the World is at
present occupying more attention in
the public print than either Bryan or
Mckinley. The expiration of the Hor-
ton Law in New York has forced many
of the pugilistic heroes to adopt the
stage as profession. With Mr.. JEFF
fries it is Altogether a different question.
For he has done considerable in tnis
line of work. His appearance in New
York City last winter in the big spec
tacle Around New York in Eighty
Minutes" demonstrated that he pos
sessed considerable histrionic ability,
so much so that his Manager, VIM. A.
Brady made a contract with the well
known author Clay M. Greene, to write
"a Man From the West" for him. Mr..
Brady made very fair actor out of
James j Corbett and it is safe to pre-
dict that he will do the same with
James j. Jeffries. "A Man From the
West" is clever melodrama full of
thrilling and exciting scenes and the
amusement loving people will find
great deal to interest them in this play.
