NEW COMPANY AT
MONROE THEATRE
DRAWS BIG HOUSE
PRATHER's HONEYMOON AG-
GREGATIoN PLEA E S
LARGE AUDIENCE AT mi
TIAL PERFORMANCE

Prather's Honeymoon Limited
Company of high-class players ar
rived in town yesterday with big
cargo of fun and cleverly unload
ed large quantities of it during
their first performance in this
city, at the Monroe Theatre last
night. The house was packed,
with many standing to witness the
initial appearance of the Honey
moon Limited. There was uproar-
Gus laughter and loud applause
from the time the curtain vert
up, and many people have been
heard to say that it is one of the
best shows ever seen in Key
West.
The male quartet simply charm
ed the audience with their selec-
tons, and had to answer encore
after encore. The play was a
matrimonial mix-up that present
ed many perplexing and side-split-
ting situations, and the audience
was kept guessing just what the
outcome would be. The leading
lady is a star rarely equaled even
in larger companies. Otherwise it
would be difficult to give&one or
all the splendid artists superiority
over the other. They are all
simply fine.
The Honeymoon Limited Com
pany came direct from Miami,
where they had been playing to
capacity houses and were highly
complimented by the Miami peo-
pie and the newspapers there.
They delighted the audience here
last evening, and it is expected
that they will draw capacity
houses all the week.
Manager Fleitas says he is glad
to be able to offer the people of
Key West a strictly high-class
attraction, and he has in
creased his orchestra by the addi-
ton of a new instrument.
The picture program last night
was wonderfully fine, as is always
the case at the Monroe.
Next Friday evening the free
trips to Philadelphia will be award
ed at the Monroe Theatre, and
much interest centers upon the
drawing Of the lucky numbers.
The Honeymoon Limited play
ers will be seen at the Monroe for
two weeks.

Taxation from politics by writing
short stories and novels of the

ore of literary material in the
gulches, mountain peaks and
mining towns of his destrict, but
many of the old legends, Vale be-
iieves, are too good to sound true.

n man standing in his office door
way in his shirt sleeves on the
Fourth of July and watching an
other freeze to DEATH" says Vale.

upon the enemy.
''Then there's the story of the

fighting. They brought them
home and parolled them upon con-
dition that they stay there and
fight the Indians while the Union

that is how many of cur best
