Ferris Hartman In THE Toy Maker"

On Tuesday, September 16, the Big
Tivoli Opera company, direct from the
San Fra, cisco house, headed by the
well-known comedian, Ferris Hartman,
will be seen at Larson's theater for one
night in "The Toy Maker" the great
London success, which has recently
closed ten weeks run at the Tivoli,
will be the opera presented. Our people
will see the same cast that scored so
heavily in San Francisco, and the origi-
nal scenery and elaborate properties
have been brought along for the road
production. Ferris Hartman, in the
role of the old toy maker, has displayed
more than his customary versatility,
and the part fits him like glove. Annie
Myers, in the dual role of the daughter
and the doll, has never been seen to SC
good advantage, and Webb and Cum
ningham are both great in their respec.
tive parts. The opera has received
more notice from the San Francisco
papers than was ever given to like
production, and the management OF
Larson's theater are positive they have
secured the banner attraction in the
Tivoli company in "The Toy Maker.
/ The sale of seats will be put on at the
theater Monday, September 10. Phone

ADJUSTMENTS.
"MeCsrthy's Mishaps."

The next attraction at Larson's thea
ter, September IL, will be that real y
funny musical comedy, "McCarthy's
Mishaps," introducing Barney Ferguson,
John Mack, Caron and Herbert, and one
of the greatest companies of farce
comedy vaudeville stars ever put to-
gether. New scenery, music, costumes
and electrical effects have been secured
for this season. Ferguson and Mack,
and Caron and Herbert should be given
the praise, generous and unlimited, OF
having put before the play-going public
a skit full of wit, one that is excruciat-
ingly funny and one which above all
else introduces something strikingly
original. But not content with this
liberality, they have surrounded them
selves with a company of first-class
talent, numbering among its members
so many good vaudeville people that it
solves the mystery as to why more
artists of merit are not appearing on
the programs of the regular vaudeville
houses. They have all evidently joined
the Ferguson and Mack, Caron and
Herbert ranks. Among them will be
found James E. Rome and Marguerite
Ferguson, late stars of 1.-The Belle OF
New York" company, Dick Ferguson
and Grace Passmore, premier singers
and dancers, Charlotte Ray, late feature
with Hopkins, Trans-U ceanics. the
D'Estelle Sisters, Virginia Logan, Miss
Fem and Wheeler, and large chorus.

theater one day in advance. Phone,
