Wiedemann's big show in "Tbe Steam Laundry" farce comedy writ ten on an entirely new theme, is the attraction at the opera house for one night, Monday evening, March II. The average farce comedy of today has no plot and is a mass of nonsense. but in this case the story is one of absorbing interest and holds the attention of the playgoer from the rise to the fall of the curtain. Choruses, medleys and seven unique specialties are introduced in the play and the Solo Orchestra un- der the direction of Prof. Mcdonald Is feature that will please lovers of classical music. The average theater goer is averse to attractions that carry a band and orchestra, as they say. ''The whole show on the street." With this company the musicians are carried for musical purposes alone and the cast Is made up of clever people selected for their fitness in their re- spective roles. The parade is some thing new in the history of amuse- ments annals and is headed by the Red HuzZars in gorgeous uniform of the Prussian Cavalry. The second band is the laughing hit, The Laun- dryman's Outing" Chinese band, with native instruments. The concert in front of the theater each evening at 7:15 is worth coming out to hear. Seats on sale now.
