PLAYERS Please the People

Last evening Myrtle Vane's com
pany presented The Charity Bali at
the Opera House to an audience that
filled every seat. From the rise of
the curtain TO the close of the play
there was not a moment when the
capable actors were not holding the
full attention of their hearers. Miss
Vane gave Il splendid Interpretation
OF the roll of Ann Cruger. Those who
have seen her work in coast cities
need not be told that last nights per-
formance was good, because with Myr-
tie Nane leading any company the
plavS bear an advanced guarantee.
Lack Of space prevents our giving
further individual credit. Suffice IL
TO say that the members are among
the best known actors on the coast
and that all acquitted themselves with
ease in their respective parts. The
stage setting was the object of gen
eral comment for the scenic effect
is an essential good part OF the piece.
Perhaps those who enjoyed 1t gave no
thought to the expense of the prepara-
ton. but when it is considered that
entirely new scenery is prepared for
each act of each play to be presented
here and that special department IS
carried whose efforts are devoted sole
" to this detail, the patrons OF the
house will appreciate the labor that is
being devoted for their entertainment.
