:, :, The audience at the Opera House
= Monday evening was a large one and re-
. preventative of Langdon people who best
y enjoy thoroughly first class theatrical
. performance. The coming of ''A Wise
. Woman company had been looked for
% ward to several weeks and in the way of
a musical comedy was a disappointment
7 to none. Though those who went with
n the expectation to listening to play
$ with we'll laid plot and its accompany
e ing dramatic incidents probably did not
y find their realizations exactly fulfilled.
II The company is made up OF clever cap
l. able actors and the play created laughter
e and gave relaxation from care for two
e solid hours. Seldom if ever has any
g thing in the way Of theatrical attrac-
IS ton been given here that was so uni
IS formly good throughout as the presenta-
u ton of 'A Wise Woman" on Monday
night, with Miss Marie Lamoure, in the
e title role.
