EXCELLENT PROGRAM
PROMISED AT FAMILY
"PRINcEss oMENE,n AND TRACEY
AND GOLFERS COMING.
From Sundays Daily.

From Sundays Daily.
There is a decided improvement in
the class of programs offered by Man
ager Enright at the Family theater.
The week, which closes tonight wit
messed one of the best entertainments
ever presented at the popular theater.
It was an all star program, possessing
just enough music, just enough dia-
logue, Just enough dancing and just
enough good scenery to make it de.
cidedly entertaining.
For the coming week Manager En-
right says he has just as good q
program for the matinee and night
performances each day. The program
will be opened by Princess Omene," a
Billings girl, who has gained fame on
the vaudeville stage as an Oriental
and Spanish dancer. She possesses
a good voice and sings several up to
date songs.
The Northcutt sisters, who have
made a decided hit at the Family
theater in Helena, are also on the
bill. They are clever singers and
dancers, said to be decidedly attract
i've and very clever.
Tracey and Golfers, comic acrobat
I1c song and change artists, complete
the new features of the bill. ALI the
songs sung by them we're written by
themselves and are copyrighted. Dur
ing a tour extending over several
months they were the hit of the Keith
and Proctor, Orpheum and Sullivan
and Considine circuits. They have
been well praised by both public and
press.
Miss Bessie Bernhardt will sing the
new illustrated song, "As the World
Moves" Miss Bernhard is improv-
ing daily. Her voice is rounding into
a rich melodious tone and she is be-
coming n of the best illustrated
song singers in the state.
Professor Leonard has arranged an

MISS ROBSON CHOSE CHOSE
OWN PRODUCTION
PERSUADED AUTHOR TO DRAMA
TIE PLAY HERE TOMORROW.
Sundays Daily.

From Sundays Daily.
Tomorrow night at the Babcock
theater l.. S. Sire will present May
Robson, in the new 1908 American
comedy, "The Regeneration of Aunt
Mary" by Anne Warner. The play
is from the novel by the same name
which won Miss Warner distinction as
an authoress.
It was while reading the novel Miss
Robson saw in the character OF Aunt
Mary, herself, and one which she
knew would stand out far above any
thing else she had ever had. She at
once went to Miss Warner and asked
her to dramatize the book, and the re-
suit is one OF the best comedies ever
presented on the stage.
THE Regeneration Of Aunt Mary
IL one OF the most popular books on
the market today, and those who have
not read 1t should do so. In dramatic
ing the book, Miss Warner has left
out none Of the comedy, but has adj
Ided more. With this has been added
many novel stage settings. The COM,
Spany supporting Miss Robson is a
strong one. ,tgfs S ].
Miss Robson. is n OF the few, who
in this day dares to be a character act
|ress. To her character impersona-
tions she brings a comprehension Of
phrase or line, q telling reserve in
pose and gesture, and an ease and
fluency Of quiet, unctious delivery that
are in the better spirit OF a polished,
experienced and original comedy. All
Of this local theater goers have seen
too little of late, and will be glad to
learn that Miss Robson will appear in
this city in her new play in which she
is starring.
According to the play, Aunt Mary
has become apparently somnolent, ow.
ing t.. prolonged residence in the u
try. She comes to the city, and vari-
Gus influences combine to make her
sprightlier and younger. She rejuven-
ates a few degrees in each act, SO
that in the last she has become as
renovated, Joyous and as apt to every
thing as the vivacious May Robson
herself.
The play is divided into three acts.
The first and last take place at Aunt
Mary's home in the country. The sec
ond act is laid in New York City. The
production is produced under the per-
sonal direction of 3. +. %Bostwick. The
stage settings are most elaborate and
the production is complete in every
detail.
The entire cast and production will
be seen here as played at the Stude-
baker theater, Chicago, for the past
three months. Chicago critics have
endorsed 1t as one of the best com
edies ever seen In that city.

the watchword "Remember the
Maine" they marched as gladly to
the defense Of the honor OF their coun-
try as did the young men, now grey
haired Veterans, in response to the
first call for troops made by Abraham
Lincoln. The Red Cross Society re-
sponded as quickly to the need Of the
hour, and Inundated Spain was forced
to acknowledge the invincible power
Of the mighty Republic beyond the

Spirit Still Lives.
The spirit Of 1861 found q voice In
the year 1898, and we know tnat the
heart of the great Republic still beats
true, Notwithstanding differences OF
race, color, language, politics and re-
ligion. The valiant Volunteers OF
the Spanish War. no less courageous
than their fathers, demonstrated by
their heroic deeds lLat there had been
no deterioration in patriotism, while
the enthusiastic reception to Admiral
Evans fleet all along the Pacific coast,
and the attention paid to the sailors
as we'll as the officers by hundreds OF
thousands of citizens, assures us that
in the future as in the past, the
world will DOW to the invinctble spirit
of the individual man behind the
gun"
Veterans of the Grand Army of the
Republic, know that as the setting U
OF life cast the last Of its shining
rays upon you, a grateful and a
mighty people will honor and COM
memorate your deeds; that after you
have each Joined the immortal cohorts
Of the great generals whom you so
valliantly followed during the Civil
war beyond the walls of heaven, your
deeds will stand out OF the darkness
of the past as beacon lights 70 I'M
born generations, and as long as your
spirit lives in the sons and daughters
81 the Republic SO long will freedoms
fires burn upon the affairs OF home,
country and native land.
Peace TO Veterans.
Peace to the noble sons OF the Re
public, whether sleeping In beautiful
flower decked cemeteries under state
lymarble monuments, or in nameless
unmarked Southern graves, in sunny
Cuba, + the distant Philippines. Your
names and memory shall live In the
grateful hearts Of a mighty people
SO long as patriotism and loyalty SHINE
in the minds of men, and so mi as
Old Glory in undiminished splendor
waves over the Ian OF the Tree and
the home of the brave.
