doubt regret seeing their engagement
come to a close AS a farewell play
Mr.. Keith has selected MAN Zelle"
one of his feature bills and one that
will always be remembered by those
seeing it. Usually a stock company
will put on Saturday night what they
term "a get-away-bill' but not SO with
Mr.. Keith, he will present his feature
play for his closing play and give the
people their moneys worth regardless
of 1t being their last night. This same
play was seen last Wednesday matt
nee and night and when Mr.. Keith
says it is one of the most sensational
plays ever written, those who saw it
can vouch for his statement. Those
people having weak hearts or are in
clined to be very nervous are warned
to staw away as it is very exciting
out must be understood that whatever
happens during the second act, is in
the llay and everyone is requested to
kindly keep their seats and all will
