THE "sHoW GIRL" is
TO BE HERE SOON

No musical comedy of recent years
has had a greater success than The
Show Girl which Is to be at the
opera house on Friday, Dec. 20.
Its success is due to several reas-
ons-first-. because 1t is rich comedy
set to music; second. the music is
pretty and catchy and the kind that
people will whistle and remember;
third, "The Show Girl is presented
on a large scale with one of the big
gest companies on the road; and
fourth, the company contains several
stars. Lille Sutherland. who has
one of the leading parts. is one OF the
most eccentric condolences on the
musical stage. She has a quaint
manner that has earned her a wide
reputation. Stately Rose Langdon,
beautiful of face and commanding OF
figure and with rich voice always
attracts attention. And clipper and
pretty Grace Wilson is another one OF
the leaders. Jack Curtis, recognized
as one of the leaders in refined COM
edy, carries rich vein OF humor
throughout the play. One OF the
noteworthy specialties of The Show
Girl" Is the remarkable wooden shoe
dance by s. Kline and Johnny Kfef-
er, which has been one Of the hits OF
the big vaudeville circuits. Then
there is Harry Langdon and dozen
other comedians and singers. ard the
American Beauty chorus.

The train was made up of four
passenger coaches. 1t was crossing

without warning, the engine suddenly
leaped from the rails and shot to the
stream underneath, taking the first
coach with 1t. The forepart of the
engine sank several feet into the
mud of the creek bed The coach
was smashed to splinters by its ter
rife impact with the locomotive. BY
what railroad men regard as little
more than chance there were no pas

copling between it and the second
coach was wrenched in two when II
was torn from the trestle by the
engine.
None of those in the three rear
coaches knew of the accident or real

death untilseveral minutes afterward
when the cars, deprived of motive
power, slackened their speed and
came to stop. A new schedule went
into effect on the road, and to this
