READY MONEY OPENS
AT POLPS TO-DAY

One of the greatest comedy sue
cesses Of a decade will be seen ut
Polls Hartford theater all week when
the Poll Players present Ready
Money" the international triumph BY
James Montgomery. This play, which
ran for many months in New York
Chicago, London and Boston, owes not
little of it's success to the fact that
1t is absolutely clean and wholesome
in theme and treatment; possesses a
consistent story of graphic and alb
sorb,ng heart interest and that it's de-
Iightfully involved factors of love and
modern romance, make for play Of
decided interest to women, while men
are held speilbound in witnessing the
efforts of the hero to achieve large
and immediate wealth--ready money.
This is no mercenary ambition, but
simply as means to overcome the
OBJECTIONS of a prospective mother-in-
law again the intended marriage of
her daughter to poor man.
In tne first act Stephen Baird, the
hero, appears dead broke on New
Years Eve. He has an undeveloped
gold mine out west An extraordinary
event now happens in the appearance
Of one Ives, man of plausible speech
and manners, who induces Stephen to
accept $4,000 in counterfeit bills, not
for circulation, but to show his friends
that he has plenty of money. From
this point there lis q constant series of
surprising incidents, which carries the
auditors we'll night at boiling point
to the final curtain. incidentally, the
mime turns out a success and Stephen
and Ives escape the efforts of the
United States secret service agents
who were after them as suspected
holders of counterfeit money. How
ever, stephen wins his bride and
everything ends happily.
