Ten Nights in a Bar Room.

The theatrical loving people of
Maysvllle turned out en- masse last
night to witness the Mitchell-Daw-
man "Ten Nights in a Bar ROOM"
and were rewarded by seeing a most
praiseworthy production of the old
but meritorious play by a company
of unusual excellence. Produced as it
was on last night this play should
find favor wherever seen, and not be
classed as "has been.' AS Sample
Switched, Mr.. Frank E. Mitchell

Shave as Joe Morgan, the inebriate,
would be hard to be improved upon,
his delirium scene being exceptional
ly clever, and should cause those
addicted to the "booze' habit to
stop and reflect. The other parts,
especially Simon Slade and Mrs. Nor
gan, were we'll taken care of, and the
concert that followed consisted of
the best specialties seen here in
years, and the majority of them
would do credit to the average city
vaudeville theatre. Willard and Ew-
ing displayed taste, style and ability
and our music loving people were
more than pleased with the excellent
xylophone act presented by Lawman
and Ewing. The show was all good
and will not want for a good crowd
on their return here-Maysville Rec

Little Egypt
Nearly everyone has read or heard
about "Little Egypt the famous
beauty who did that sensational
dance at the Seeley dinner in New
York City some time ago. Since then
she has appeared in all the larger
cities at the head of her own big
burlesque show. She will be here on
Friday, December 2, at the New Phil
lips Theatre and every indication
points to a packed house. Her show
is composed of real New York burles-
que queens and comedians who are
famous on the Bowery. The company
numbers about thirty people in all,
and they are to present two new and
strictly up to date burlesques that
fairly Jingle with sensation and
laughter. This organization is said
to be the best ever seen out from
New York City, and will no doubt
play to a full house here, as the re-
served seat sale is already very
large. This will be the sporty event
| "Arizona.
If Augustus Thomas is given time
he is likely to give to every state in
the union the dignity of personal
uortraiture Of its costumes and peo-
pie in a stage-told story. Following
up his earliest success "Alabama, -
which was announced at the time as
'the greatest American play" save
"In Mizzoura,' that excellent COM
edy-drama in which Nat Goodwin
added so conspicuously to his arts
tic laurels. "Arizona' is said to be
better from an artistic standpoint
than either of his previous efforts,
and the title indicates the locale and
suggests the people and the subject
matter Of the story. "Arizona" is
not a melo-drama, has shown that
amid the crude surroundings of from
tier army posts and cattle ranches,
human hearts and human emotions
are as tender, as loyal, as responsive,
as they are to be found in more ia
vored localities. The play, as will be
remembered, introduces Uncle Sam s
cavalrymen, the picturesque vague
ros of the Western ranges, and of
course, some delightful types Of far
West womanhood. The author has
supervised the staging himself of the
play, and in the incidental features
Of the work he has had the valuable
expert assistance Of Frederick Rem
ington, the incompatible pictorial de-
lineator of Western scenes and char
acters. "Arizona' will be present
ed at the Gennett Theatre on Mon
day evening, Dec. 5th.

Few plays are more welcome than
Hamlet which will be seen at the

with Edward n. Hoyt in the leading
role. Though closely following the
