1.-THE Girl of EAGLE Ranch"

The announcement that THE Girl
of Eagle Ranch" comedy drama OF
the plains in four acts by Hal Reid is
to appear tomorrow night at the Key
lor Grand theater, has caused con-
siderable stir among theater patrons.
This comedy drama is considered one
of the best ever written by this bril-
liant author and the outlook for a
most enviable record at our local play
house is looked for by those familiar
with things theatrical. The humor
furnished by scenes Of every day life
is so continuous that the play will be
popular for years to come. Among the
many strong climaxes and situations
is the big explosion of the mine in
Act II. which furnishes the public with
an idea of home near to realism stage
craft is today. The story and plot is
such that it holds the attention of the
audience from rise till fall of curtain

notable record of success elsewhere. 1t
had been running two years in New
York city and had emerged success
fully from an all summer run Of six

theatrical happenings that do not ne
cessarily make for success in this city
or neighborhood, where playgoers do
not care to have their judgments made
for them by other communities. But
the play. itself, made good to the
fullest meaning of that term. 1t is not
at all likely that theater goers will do
anything in the new engagement, to
reverse the verdict pronounced on

seph r. Grismer who own and man

that had acted the play in the east

memories of the excellent work done
