CHICAGO THEATERS.
Ar THI.GARRICk THEATER.

With the 24th big week, Oliver
MOroscO's remarkable comedy sue
ceeds. Peg O. My Heart" completes
the sixth solid month Of its highly
prosperous run at the Garrick theater
end enters upon another lap OF one OF
the most interesting long distance con-
tests on the American stage this sea-
son.
This delightful play Of youth. love
and laughter now has 20 its credit
over 225 performances on the Chicago
stage and on Dec. Is the 25Oth per
Torrance OF the play will be given.
This is the longest run OF a nom
musical play in the history Of the
Garrick theater and the longest run
registered on any stage in America
this year. while peg" has delighted
Chicago audiences nearly twice as
long as any other attraction on a Chi
cagO stage.
Last season Oliver Morosco. the
producer. carried away the seasons
record with 225 performances of

predict that this same California man
ager will take a second seasons rec
ord with the run Of Peg o. My
Heart" which in number OF perform
ances will unquestiOnably succeed that
OF Help Wanted"
Peggy O'Neil and her associate play
ers have now covered nearly one-half
of the record attained in New York by
Peg O. My Heart" and this fact is all
the more remarkable when the con-
ditions are taken into consideration,
the New York run having been
achieved during a highly prosperous
theatrical year. while the Chicago
run has been through the worst season
in theatrical history.
That this quaint and witty little
Irish American heroine will occupy
occupy the Garrick stage for several
more weeks TO come is indicated by
the continued heavy demand for seats
which has forced the management to
continue the extra popular price mat
inee on Thursday, in addition to the
matinees on Wednesday and Saturday.
