About Hughes as
Manager.

The Davenport Times of Aug. 18th
contained the following about ID. L.
Hughes, of this city, who is the pres
ent manager of the Keokuk Grand
Opera House and who recently took
charge OF the Davenport theatre. The
article will be of interest to Keokuk
people:
Within the next ten days there will
be great transformation at the
Grand opera house, Davenport. Man
ager d. l.. Hughes of Keokuk who
will be in charge Of the Grand this
season, has just let the contracts for
complete renovation of the exterior
and interior of the playhouse, and the
opening of the theatrical season in the
tri-cities will reveal many notable
changes in this theater. 1t will be re-
painted and renovated throughout and
operated on the same system that has
brought Mr. Hughes such large
measure of success In his thirty years
in the theatrical business. The ex-
terror of the theater will be white and
gold, with clusters of electrical lights
arranged in most attractive fashion.
The interior decorations will be such
that more life will be given to the
whole prospective.
"The Third Deuree.n
AS 1t has been announced hereto
fore. the opening production at the
Grand on Sept 6 and will be Charles
Klein's most successful piece, "The
Third Degree" which played for seven
months at the Hudson theater. New
York City. The dramatic worth of
this production Is known to all who
read the theatrical news. In THE
Third Degree Mr.. Klein has taken
for the subject Of his play certain
abuses of power by the police, to-
gether with conditions that exist
among the elect of the highest social
circles in New York city. The story
deals with young man, who, by
reason Of his marriage to girl of the
people, is disowned by his father, a
member of the old Knickerbocker set.
Through the death, under peculiar cir
cumstances of man, suspicion is
laid upon the boy by the police, who,
challenged for their inefflciency and
cropping wildly for plausible suspect
use every effort In their power to
fssten the chains o. guilt upon him.
His own father refuses to come to his
aid The girl, by force of character
ingenuity, and fearless courage, fights
single-handed against the powers that
have sworn to make her husband a
victim of misplaced justice. The faith.
| fulness and fidelity with which wom-
an cleaves unto her husband is so con-
vinc.ngly illustrated that this play
must invite the attention and endorse
ment of all classes of theater-goers.
The cast engaged by Henry B. Har-
ris to present this absorbing drama
includes Paul Everton Of Lion and
the Mouse" fame, Fernando Eliscu, T..
