always occasions in me whether the

exhibitions of a giant power in its

one TO apply to this drama. Il Is too

Vide knights Shakespeare.
A spectacular revival Of this most
wonderful historical play viii be pre-
sented by Mr.. Charles b. Hanford
during the present season. As Mare
Antony, he offers a worthy sequel to
his performance Of the same eharac-
ter in Julius Caesar. which will be
of great interest to the student and
equally interesting and entertaining
to the theatergoer who, patronizes the
theater for an evenings entertain
ment only. The Antony Of this play
must be recorded as another addition
Of his successes in the great charac-
ters of Shakespeare. Cleopatra, that
rare Egyptian queen, who pursed up
the heart OF Marc Antony at their
first meeting upon the river of Cyd-
nus; "whom everything becomes to
chide, to laugh, to weep" will be in
the hands OF thar excellent actress,
Miss Alice Wilson. A gorgeous set

a ballet Of dancing girls and a chorus
Of youth and beauty, beautifully and
enthusiastically costumed. pictures
and pleasing electric effects including
the great scene "The Battle and the

and realism of the play.

will be afforded to see Mr.. Hanford's

"lOung Buffalo"


That thrilling, cleyerly constructed
melodrama, founded on western bor-
der life, entitled. Young Buffalo
King of the Wild West" by Charles
Z. Blaney, will be held here at The
Kentucky on Friday, October II.

congress of frontier characters of the
sort that "shoot up" things when the
notion strikes them, as well as man.

considerable western novels. II is a
play full of snap, realism, awe-in-
spring scenic effects, and withal

lines Of the possible.
young Buffalo," the hero, IS an
actual resident of Arizona, a former
miner and cow-puncher, who finally
developed a genius for the stage with
sufficient success to attract the notice
Of such a good judge of talent as Mr..
Blaney. And that the latter has not
erred in entrusting the leading part
to Young Buffalo, none will gainsay.

About Thenter Prices.

There is a general feeling in Pa
ducah that the prices of theatrical
attractions at the kentucky have not
been properly gagged the past several
seasons. The complaint is that too
often a show charges the local public
IS1.5O when 81 would be fair adj
mission for the attraction offered.
Often the companies worth so cents
land rs cents have played at 81. and
the natural consequence is that the
going public hesitates to give
its hearty support to any other than
the best known stars.
There is an actual cost value at
tached to theatrical production,
based upon the character of the peo-
pie presenting the play. the attention
given TO scenic effects, number OF
people employed. etc., and knowl-
edge of these matters is absolutely
necessary before a local manager can
properly represent his public.
A fact not generally known is that
the management of the company re-
serves the right to name the price at
which the attraction appears. Howev-
err, if the house management is
thoroughly informed as to the value
of the performance, there are argu-
.ments he can bring forward. which
will in many cases secure an equita-
BILE price.
There are a great many attractions
n1avinp the one nfoht etands that
can be induced to play for 90 cents
and 10 cents that are worth the sup
port of the most intelligent theater-
goer, and which make it possible for
a class of people, who cannot afford
the $3.50 and 81 attractions, to take
advantage of one of the greatest Of
modern charlottesville stage.
The new managers of the Kentucky
are bending every effort to protect
the local public from unfair prices,
and viii apply an intelligent knowl-
edge of the stage business in general
to this end.
As an instance OF their efforts in
this direction, there will be four
shows at the Kentucky this week at
popular prices: one at so cents and
three at 10 cents. The so cents and
two of the 75c ents productions will
be exceptional attractions at the
prices.
The two 10 cent shows mentioned
are carrying more than % people.and

Church on Train.

Miss Jane Corcoran. who is play
! ing in "A Dolls House" this year, APP
peared in 1.-THE Freedom of Suzanne"
last season, playing in the cities Of
the middle west. That is what hap
pened on this particular occasion.
Miss Corcoran and her company were
on their way from Des Molnes, Iowa,
to Lincoln, Neb., an all night ride.
The company left Des Moines at mid
night on Saturday night, all taking
sleepers. They expected to arrive in
Lincoln shortly before noon on Sun
day and did not leave their berths
until late in the morning. When they
arose, they found themselves lost in
a sea of snow the train having been
stopped by the heavy fall. One of the
passengers was a clergyman who ex>
pected to preach in one OF the towns
that morning. Miss Corcoran attends
church at least once each Sunday and
her remark that she probably would
miss services because of the snow, at
tracted the clergyman's attention. A
sermon in a sleeping car was the
thing farthest from his mind. but
Miss Coreoran's remark set him to
thinking. He did not know who hts
fellow passengers were and probably
would not have volunteered to off,
eiate, had not Miss Corcoran follow
ed her remark with a few strains Of
one of the old hymns, taught her
when a child.
Miss Corcoran's sweet voice decid-
ed the clergyman and his duty, he
afterward said. He volunteered TO
lead in prayer and preach the sermon
intended for the congregation In the
little town, If Miss Corcoran would
sing.
Certainly, shall sing" she an
swered.
And there in the midst of a sea Of
snow. with the winds bowling about
the cars the Nebraska minister spoke
Of the homes and the dear ones his
fellow travellers had left behind, urg-
ed them to live uprightly and to shun
evil.
