The Great American PLAY

The greatest play of the time and
the most popular, will be the at
traction at the Miller Opera House
Nov. 25 when the United PLAY Com
pany offers Eugene Walters Paid
in Full with a cast that brings out
in highest degree the superbly dram
actic qualities, the human sympathy,
the comedy that makes this the most
appealing work the stage has seen.
Paid in Full lis a masterpiece"
1t drives across the footlights and
grips with a power that is not once
relaxed. 1t contains every factor
that lifts a play to highest place in
public favor.
Consider its wonderful record and
it becomes plain that everybody
likes it. Two years in New York it
ran, going without halt through a
summer. exceeding in drawing pow
er the musical shows that until then
had been the only form of hot weat-
her theatricals Broadway would pat
ronize. At the same time in Chicago
1t scored an all summer run. Then
throughout last season five compan-
les appeared in it, more than ever
before had played any piece at the
same time, and again this year an
equal number are touring the coun-
try.
With all this is the fact that more
persons have G paid in Full"
than any other play in a like length
of time, which sustalns Acton Day.
les, the eminent dramatic critic of
the New York Sun, who wrote
Paid in Full' is the biggest dram
actic hit of the age. 1t is the vital,
living story of the hour depicting
with compelling power conditions
and persons that help make up the
human sum of every American city.
1t is a, play to be G more than
once and it will have a hearty re-
ception in this city. 1t will be acted
by a brilliant New York cast so that
every atom of its tremendously en-
tertaining quality will be brought
out to the full. Too see this great
play acted by a great cast is a treat
not to be missed.

Burke Heads Ticket

Pierre. Nov. 22.-Hhere has beer
a great deal Of discussion in the
press of the state as to the relative
strength of the Republican congress
sional nominees, on the final vote,
While a number of the counties
have not made the unofficial return,
figures from other sources show
that with four counties out, the
figures show that congressman
Burke leads his colleague by a little
over sia hundred votes. 1t is not
likely that the counties vet to re.
port will make any decided change
in this figure. and that will be about
what the final count will show.

expected to refuse all such orders
in future. Secret service agents
under orders of John E. Wilkie,
chief of the department, are tour
ing the country, issuing personal
notice to jewellers and trinket
manufacturers to turn no more
United States coin into cuff buttons
or jewelry of any kind.
The government takes the stand
the plating of coins or the punching
of holes therein for bangle, ring,
bracelet or earring purpose is
mutilation of the coin of the realm
and plainly violation of the fed
eral statutes.
The turning of coins into orna.
ments has been going on for many
years. Now and then the govern
has stopped such practice, but it
would begin again after three or
four years. Coin jewelry would
have a vogue of several years and
then go out of fashion for a decade,
only to come in again stronger
than ever.
