and with a capable cast. Way Down
East will be seen at the Crawford,
matinee and tonight.
The popularity of this great play does
not seem to wane. Managers consider
it a preferred attraction, and clamor 10
secure it,
Acknowledging the merit of the play,
there are other factors that have as much
TO do with its success Foremost is the
fact that Manager Brady has kept the
cast up to its original standard of ex-
cellence. Every year he has given the
play an entirely new scenic setting and in
every way has given the play the same
care and attention that he would new
production. That these things count in
the long run, is evidenced by the contin-
ued success OF the play

form the main theme Of the story. 1t
a play of quick acton and the interest
is sust tanned throughout by series of
startling events which follow one another
with bewildering rapidly Even without
the superb scenery and massive mechani-
cal effects the action and story of the
play are strong enough to keep curiousity
and interest at a high tension. There
are thrilling climaxes startling situations
and enjoyable comedy in every act.
Lost River will be at the Crawford on
Friday, March II.
The DeArville act is brim full of sweet
est and richest humor. They keep an
audience in a continuous roar Of laughter.
They play every known musical instru-
ment, and not a few that are wholly IN
known to America. They conclude their
act with the Swiss bells and as bell ring
ers they are phenomenal Thus. from
new to old. the entire Faust Minstrel
performance runs, and the blending is
really a pleasant bit Of evolutionary
