The summer has rolled around and
brought another theatrical season
that of 1909-1910, and naturally thea
tregoers turn to those who cater to
their tastes in the amusement line to
see what sort of bill Of fare has been
provided for the long fall and winter
months to come. With the object of

exactly what they may look forward
to seeing this season, the dramatic edi-
tor has interviewed Manager Alison
Brubaker Of the Fargo operahouse and
has learned that C. p. Walker, who has
recently returned from New York, has
booked the following attractions for mis-
circuit for the season of 1909-1910:

The Shepherd King, with Wright
Lorimer, the author-actor, in the title
role and supported by a very large
company, This Is a magnificent pro-
duction, with the story Of the play
based upon the biblical history OF
David, the young shepherd who killed
the giant Goliath and afterwards be-
came king Of Israel. Although the au-
thor has taken a biblical story, he has
by no means made his play a sermon.
On the contrary, 1t leans towards melo-
drama, and presents a series of won
derful stage pictures that excel in
beauty and grandeur even those of the
famous religious play, Ben Hur. This
is the opening attraction and comes to
the Fargo operahouse for three nights
with special Saturday matinee, COM
mencing Sept. 16
John Cort's Companies, coming here

receive sumptuous revival and the
merry Pixley- Luders comic opera

excellent impression when presented
here some seasons back with Raymond
Hitchcock and Cheridah Simpson in
the cast.
Commencement Days is delightful
comedy OF girl college life, and is by
Virginia Frame and Margaret Mayo
two clever dramatists who know just
how to put the happy times of girl
graduates before the public. Frederick
