The most interesting Of these. if not
one of the most interesting of the whole

said to be the grcltest log house ever
built. In front of this is a colorado Of

These and their quality prove the inter-

class, though there is much CT the
curious and unique.

The Utah Building.
Utah is the only intermountain state

display Is an advertisement of iucalcu-

week with Nerve" Ballerini's clever
CANNES stay also, as do Howard and
Howard and Martinetti and Sylvester
with the chairs. New motion pictures
complete the bill.
GRAND-Ferris Hartman and his big
singing company, beginning with the
matinee today, will make use of the
New York and London musical comedy
success, "A Chinese Honeymoon" Be-
sides the regular matinees tomorrow,
Tuesday and Saturday, a special mat
inee will be given on Thanksgiving
day. The book and lyrics of this mu-
steal eccentricity are by George
Dance, while the music was composed
by Howard Talbot. The piece was
given for three hundred performances
in London, two hundred times in New
York and for more than one hundred
consecutive performances in Chicago.
The story of the play is laid in Ylang
Ylang, China, and details the ludicrous
matrimonial ENHANCEMENT of one Sam
uel Pineapple, who has fallen in love
and married his stenographer and who
is touring China on the honeymoon
Throughout the tour of China he is
forced to carry a retinue of brides
maids to watch for any surreptitious
Irritation on his part. The complica-
tions arising from Pineapple's dispo-
sition for romance and Mrs. Pineap-
pies retaliatory flirtations compel
each other to the verge of bigamy

ors household helps matters along.
Ferris Hartman will play Samuel Pine

fore. Josie Hart viii play the role of
Mrs. Pineapple. while Josephine Islieb

of an apartment which turns out to
be that of a young lawyer, VINO had
previously defended her and who
catches her in the act of rifling his
rooms. He falls in love with her,
however, leads her to reform and
finally marries her. Lewis S. stone
will be seen in the part of the young
lawyer William Latimer while That's
Magrane will play the important role
of Nance Olden. In this Miss Ma
Crane not only will have opportunity
for emotional acting, but also to dis
play her versatility in a character of
considerable novelty. Frank Camp will
play the part of the girls confeder
ate, Tom Dorgan. which will give him
one of the best opportunities for char
acter work since his coming to the Be
