NEW COMPANY ORGANIZING.
High Class 3epertoire Theatrical
Company Being Organized
Here. Scenery Now Be
inc Built.

One Of the heretofore unmention-
Cd industries of DEBORAH for the
present summer is the organization
of a high class theatrical company,
and the building of the scenery ana
numerous effects which will be car
ried with it.
Mr.. Edmund Carroll, the we'll
known star in the I'VE Are King
company during the past two years.
has been the guest of Mr.. B. B.
Molss of this city, who has for two
years been treasurer of this COM
pany, since their season closed, and
together they are at work directing
the construction of special scenery
and various effects for the new
company which they will put out
this fall. 1t will be a high grade
repertoire company carrying twelve
to fourteen people, all of them ex-
rerienced and competent, and will
play only the larger cities, catering
to the best class of business. There
seems to be a demand in the larger
cities for repertoire company of
better quality than the ordinary
weeks stand" shows, and this is
the demand they hope to fill.

s. nted be of the class ordinarily
given by repertoire companies, but
all will be high class royalty plays,
among them THE Chaffeur," North
ern Lights Hearts OF the Blue
Ridge" by Right of Sword" "Da-
vid Garrick," and THE Stowaway."
All the plays will be given special
scenery, which is now being built
under the direction of Messrs. Morss
and Carroll. The large piece now
under construction is a full rugged
thirty foot sailing yacht
Mr.. Edmund Carroll, who will star
in the various plays to be offered, is
a gentleman with an enviable stage
career. For the past two years he
has been starring in the 1--WE Are
King" company, and his success in
this capacity has been marked.
Previous to this he was for one year
with a stock company in Schenect-
ady, n. Y; two years in stock in
Chicago; five years with Walker
Whiteside; one year with the Alcaz-
ar Stock Co.. San Francisco; one
year with Frederick Warde, and one
year with Nance O'Neil. He will be
surrounded with a company fully
capable to carry their roles with pre-
cision and ability, and all indica-
tons point to a successful season
from the beginning.
The company will assemble in De-
corah for rehearsal about August
lst, and will open during the latter
part of the month.
