MAY Irwin December 18th.

Here's what the Birmingham Age
Herald of November 18th, has to say
of May Irwin, Americas most popu-
lar coincidence, who comes to the OPP
era House Monday, December 18th.
"Jolly May Irwin" as she is known
both in her private and public life, is
justly popular woman. An atmos-
pheresof gloom is quite impossible
when she is present and for that rea-
son, and the additional reason that
she has a most amusing play, her
opening performance of "33 Wash
ington Square" at the Jefferson the
atre last night was thoroughly en-
joyable. For good measure, she also
interpollated number of songs,
most of them the rollicl1ing kind
which she sings with rare zest.
The comedy with which Miss Irwin
made pronounced success in New
York last year and which she is now
presenting on tour, is based on book
by Leroy Scott.

THE Return of Draw Eagan' With
VIM. S. Hart.
DRAW" Eagan, a notorious bandit
of New Mexico, has come to the end
of his tether. His gang has been dis
persed, many slain, and more in jail,
and there is a reward of 81 900 of
fered for Eagan, "dead or alive"
Eagan, after laying on the hills for
some time, revisits the scene of his
former depredations, and while
gloomily drinking in dingy saloon
at Muscatine chances across one Matt
Buckton, leading citizen of the
neighboring village of Yellow Dog.
Yellow Dog is a tough town infest-
ed with reckless gunner, who make
life miserable for the few respectable
citizens. Buckton is on a still hunt
for some strong man who will Shout

ton is thinking gloomily over his
seemingly impossible quest the bully
of Muscatine enters the saloon and,
accosting DRAW" Eagan, finds him
self crumpled upon the floor without
opportunity for repartee.
Buckton is so much impressed by
the quietude and machine-like deft-
ness of "Draw" Eagan's work that
he Immediately offers him the lucra-

soon has the DULLES and gunner OF
Yellow Dog well in hand, with law
