COLUM BIA

1t is not often that a play from
William H. Cranes repertoire is re-
vived by a stock company.
Dramatists writing for this CO.
median usually provide star part
which makes it Crane play COM
pletely. 1t is different with "The
Governor of Kentucky" the new
Co lumbia bill Sunday, where the
leading man, Willis A. Hall. has a
chance to do unusually effectual
work as Dan Bingley, the rugged
chap who comes down from the
Kentucky mountains to see the
governor about some mOonshine
whiskey, strolls into the plays best
situations, wins it's herOine's love,
saves the governor from political
ruin and exposes his enemies. Not
only does this play present q young
hero of more consequence than the
star-and-title character, but also a
happily delineated old Kentucky
gentleman and a Blue Grass horse
woman, besides lot of merry SOU
brette material In two flirting
bellies from New York. The part
of Jewell Esterbrooke, that of d
charming southern lady, will be
ably portrayed by the new leading
lady, Miss Julia Gray. Miss Gray
is a woman of exceptional beauty
and comes from Chicago with an
established reputation as a stock
leading woman.
In securing the service of Miss
Bessie Cooney a popular ingenue
in all the coast cities, especially
San Francisco. the Columbia Stock
Co. considers itself fortunate. Ma

company and will be seen as Betty
Bunce, the lobbyist. The part is
admirably suited to her. being that
of Blue Grass horsewoman, en-
thusiastic, intense and all else that
the character would imply. The
balance of the cast includes Miss
Mildred Eddy. Verne Layton, Chas.
Clauson, w. N. Marsh. H. w. Gill
bert, Grant Churchill and George
Hedger. The play will run all week
with usual Saturday matinee.

of the big successes of recent

marks the opening of the fourth

fishes a record seldom equaled In
the theatrical world. The original
engagement Of IS weeks was first
extended and finally the company
decided to make Spokane it's home,

cess since. The play is a dramati-
cation of Miriam Michelson's ia
momus novel. In some respects the
dramatization has been made with
special emphasis of features which
lend themselves more readily to
the stage. The character of Nance
Olden, the young girl who is pro-
fessional thief ami glories in her
calling, Is made the central figure
in the plot. and her reformation
under the considerate treatment of
the young lawyer who afterward
falls in love with and marries her

production to be compared with
