"Utah," the great rural drama which
viii be produced at Grand Opera House
Tuesday, September /, is a play new to
these parts and judging by the crowded
houses which have been greeting the show
wherever produced, the enthusiasm con-
stantly envoked by the succession OF thrill
ling situations, and the general smooth
ness which characterzes the entire per-
formance, the play no doubt will be one
OF the most successful the management
has given this year.
Tho play differs considerably from the
ordinary drama of border life I'm the far
west ana from the opening scene to the
great climax in the last act there is one
continual number OF interesting features.
The story is SO interviewer as to excite
interest OF all who witnessed It and has
a happy ending in which the good people
win reward and the unjust meet with ter
rible retrbutlon All the scenes are quite
in keeping with the play depicting true
picture OF rough life on the cattle ranches
The second act shows a typical western
cattle ranch I'm a very vivid manner. and
another scene shows different view OF
the ranch, with magnificent stage effecti
to add to the realism.
