The Eleventh Hour.

"The 11th Hour" one of last
seasons scenic successes, in five
acts, by the well known playris ht,
Lincoln j. Garter, will be the me-
offering at the Opera House, Nov.
2Sth.
1t is said to be an exceedingly
bright play, full of comedy, pathos,
strong situations and elegant seen
cry. 1t is play dealing with life
in and around Chicago, and does
not wholly depend upon mechani-
cal effects for it's success. A play
that runs the gauntlet of human
emotion and has touched the pin
nacle of dramatic possibilities. A
dramatic creation that leads by a
sequence of realistic and sensa-
tional scenes to the grandest dra-
matte climax yet shown on an
American stage.
1t was first produced in Chicago
and made a most emphatic shit" ="
The cast is strong, and the patrons

Any one who has ever seen that
natural comedian, Dan Darleigh,
knows that he has few, if any,
equals in depicting the innocent
old countryman. His makeup is
excellent, and the part he portrays
fits him to the proverbial or" If
you enjoy hearty laughter, you
should certainly avail yourself of
an opportunity to see "Si Steb-
bins, at the Opera House, Monday,
Dec. 1st. The piece is one of that
quaint type which leads one back
to younger days. One can almost
smell the sweet perfume Of wild
flowers and new-mown hay, so
rural and true to nature is the
play and the company's interpre-
tation of it.

The famous Block House System
of signalling trains on all trunk
lines is brought into prominence
by Lincoln j. Carter, introducing
it in his play, "The 11th Hour"
Mr.. Carter fully demonstrates the
entire workings of the "Block" "
system that reduces accidents on
railroads to a minimum. But few
people who are riding on fast
train and flash by. a block signal
tower, realize what is contained
therein and what an important
factor that tower is to the safe
guidance of trains. Yet all of this
is thoroughly demonstrated in
"The 11th Hour" which will be
presented at the Opera House,
Friday evening, Nov. %.
