"a MESSAGE FROM MARS"

The great London and New York
comedy, "a Message From Mars
in which David Proctor. a promi
nent young actor is appearing as
the star. will be seen here for the
first time at the Spokane next Fri
day evening. "a Message From
Mars" is described as being in
tensely human. No comedy, no mat
ter how bright it's lines or novel
it's theme, can live if it is not true
picture of life. The average life
as 1t is lived must be faithfully re-
produced. If the story is well told
then it appeals to the multitude
This would seem to have been the
case with "A Message From Mars"
It ran three years in London, and
two years in New York.

The piece was well received by
an enthusiastic audience last night
and promises to pack the theater
during the coming week.
A large audience witnessed the
initial performance of the week at
the Washington theater yesterday
afternoon and literally applauded
every number on the program.
Dracula, the mephisto-clad con-
tortionist, who heads the bill for
the week, has an act that is com
mon.
Harvey and De Vora, the dancing
kids, are about the best that have
been seen here recently. Both are
good artists who dance with ease
and grace that is surprising. Cora
Beech Turner, singing coincidence,
has a sweet voice. Thomas Wea-
dock and company, presenting the
one act farce, "a Buffer Bluffed,'
have a very poor turn that does
not amuse. Harry Jolson does a
singing and monologue act that is
fair. His stories are new and in.

With Mr.. Bryan good quill toothpick Is as

He found the right kind of a quill tOothpiok In
St. Petersburg last winter and carried ii all the
way along the route. He chewed on it when he
shook hands with the AIikado ia Japan stuck it
back into his vest pocket after hobnobbing with
all the satraps OF the Orient. kept it in SER

On the way over the Princess Irene the old
quill toothpick became social and political is
