comedy will he the attraction at the
Opera House this Thursday evening
Nov. 23rd. This is the fourth success
full season Of the popular skit and
each season it has been improved and
rewritten. This : the fourth edition
and is the work of Mr.. Edgar Selden.
He has so rewritten the comedy that
not q line of the former editions is re-
tanned, at the same time he has woven
a consistent story Of intrigue depend
ing on destinations andcOmplications
together withfunny lines and business
to furnish the fun, which is all the
more enjoyable from the fact that
laughs are furnished naturally and
with reason, and not from the efforts
OF performers who as in some farce
comedies stop at nothing to produce a
laugh whether revelant to the action OF
the farce or not. The anne popular
favorites who have been largely re-
sponsible for the success ofthe comedy,
have been retained, namely Davis and
Mack. They are ably assisted by Miss
Mabel Campbell, Violet Hilson, Tony
Murphy, Winnie Stewart, Marie Dock
man, The Pawnbroker Trio, TheDanie
Sisters, Will Rosay, Jas. r. Lee,
Tunis Conway and chorus of female
voices. Some of the richest costumes
ever seen in farce comedy are promised
together with a musical program OF all
the recent successes and many entirely
new numbers waitten for and produced
solely by this organization.
