Coming Events.
James O'Neill has played the part of
Edmond Dantes In Monte Cristo'' almost
5000 times from New York to San Fran
cisco and back again. 1t is q worlds rec
ord. During the period he has achieved a
reputation that is as enviable as II is well
deserved. Time and again Mr.. O'Neill has
desired to throw the mantle OF the Count
Of Monte Cristo from his shoulders, but
each time the public has insisted that he
put Il on again. The play-goers seem to
recognize the fact that there Is no other
romantic actor in America today whom
they wish to see impersonate this char
acter. The story of this masterpiece OF the
elder Dumas Is well known in every city
and family where the gems Of literature
are studied and enjoyed. When this emf
nent romantic actor presents Monte Girls
TO- at the Boyd theater on next Friday
and Saturday evenings, and at matinee
on Saturday. II will be the last time he
will be seen in the famous old piece in
this city. for the present Is Mr.. ONeiil's
farewell season TO Monte Cristo.' The
company is an exceedingly competent one
that is supporting him this year.
