having their big treat Of, the season
this week in the splendid offerings Of
Nagle's American Beauty" company

Monday afternoon.
The curtain was up only about five
minutes at the first performance when
whispers flew around the house to the
effect that the company had class
to burn. The fact that nearly every
solo and ensemble number brought
forth an encore is sufficient testimony
that the production is exceptionally
good. Actors have to go some in or
der to drag an encore from a vaude-
VILE audience around here.
The principals of this company are
finished actors, the chorus is composed
Of pretty and shapely girls who are
not backward about showing their
shapes and the scenery and costumes
are as good as will be, found any
where. The comedy is cleyerly put
over and is new and original. That
means a whole lot with a tab show

JOLIET NOT OPEN
TO DRY CAMPAIGN

Aurora, H., Feb. 4.-Petitions call
ing for vote on the saloon question
were filed on this, the last day for
filing, in large number Of northern
Illinois cities and villages. In north
eastern Illinois the petitions were
filed for the most part by "wets,' who
are seeking to recover ground lost in
the last saloon elections which came
soon after women were given the bal
lot.
The saloon forces apparently have
given up hope of winning back Rock
ford, the biggest dry city in the state,
and frequent battle ground. No pc
tition was filed there.
Among the cities where the saloons
will try for reinstatement are:
Elgin, Sterling, DeKalb, Rochelle,
Batavia, Geneva, Plainfield, Plano,
Yorkville, Hinckley and Sycamore.
Among the largest wet cities which
the drys will try to win are Aurora
Rock Island and St. Charles.
There will be no vote in Joliet
which is wet A large number OF
small towns which were voted dry al
the last election will not be fought for
by the saloon forces.
