"The Shepherd king."

Seats for "The Shepherd King" play which is decidedly unusual and which will be produced at the Jefferson theatre Mon day and Tuesday nights and Tuesday matinee, will open at the box office at g o'clock this morning. Wright Lorimer. the talented romantic actor, will be seen in the original role of David, and 1t is safe to say that the production will be different from anything preserved here for several seasons. This applies to both action and costuming. Owing to the magnitude of the production Manager R. s. Douglas announces that the curtain will go up promptly at S:15 at night and 2:15 in the afternoon.
