1.-THE news that Ike Speers was to

complete surprise Thursday evening.
even to Mr.. Speers himself, who has
been connected for over year with
Nj. w. Savage in the Dan Patch Air
Line enterprise. Charles H. Miles,
owner Of the theater, decided sudden
ly to make a change in the resident
managership and offered MIR. Speers the

whatever influence the personal
qualities and popularity of theater's
managers have upon the public, and
it is, perhaps, greater than Is usually
realized, Is assured TO Mr.. Miles by his
engagement Of Mr.. Speers to fill this
important and responsible position. In
addition, Mr.. speers' theatrical expert

"THE TWO JOHNS"
q cuna for the Blues.

Nothing keener in this old world
of ours than competition. It is to be
found In every walk OF life and 1t Is
especially manifest in the theatrical
business. A manager in order to attract
his public must give the best goods for
the least money. Il he can do this he is
sure OF certain percentage for his
pains, but he must keep on giving the
best that money can buy. A slip in this
direction means loss and failure for his
public are the kind that worship idols
of clay and forget very easily. Some
managers know their public and are al
ways catering to their demands. Mr..
j. G. Stewart, the well known manager
of 1.-THE Two Johns" Is one OF the few
that does.
1.-THE Two Johns" Is one OF the best
organizations of its kind ever pre-
sented. And they will be here tomorrow
