Unusual interest has been aroused
among local amusement lovers in the
announcement hat Fiske OHara,
Americas leading actorsinger, will
play his annual engagement at the
Grand opera house, Saturday, October
%. This seasons vehicle for the ex-
ceptional talents of Mr.. O'Hara is a
threeact romantic comedy, Spring
time in Mayo" with its scenes laid
in ireland and written by Anna
Nichols Duffy. According to advance
reports "Springtime in Mayo" is a
colorful, buoyant, joyous entertain
ment radiant with happiness. 1t is
the heart clutch contained in it that
makes the play one of these rare
treats to be found in the theatre, once
in every few years and, when found,
treated as a thing apart. The role
played by Mr.. O'Hara in "Springtime
in Mayo" a breezy, rollicking, young
Americanized Irishman, is far away
the greatest stage triumph in the
brilliant career of this artist, and this
is attested by the unanimous endorse
ment of critics and p%laygoing public
wherever the star and play have been
seen. Mr.. O'Hara has been provided
with a number Of new songs well
suited to his charming tenor voice.
He comes under the direction Of
Augustus Pitou, Inc, who has pro-
vided stage settings which complete
the charm of a performance that for
perfection Of cast could hardly be ex-
celled.
