Post - Lenten Season
Gives Fine Promise;
A Week of Pleasure
Jolly Jeff DeAngelis
One of the Fea
tures.
Amusement lovers will have an op
portunity next week of being enter
tained with variety. Music, comedy
and tragedy are on the bill, all enacted
by leaders In their respective lines.
One of the principal matters will be
the two sacred concerts to be given by
the Kilties band at the Grand Sunday
afternoon at 3 o’clock and Sunday
evening at 8:15 o’clock. The Kilties
do not need to be Introduced. They
charmed two audiences last Sunday
afternoon and evening, and It was
largely nt the solicitation of those who
heard them that the local management
arranged for additional concerts.
On Monday afternoon at a special
matinee and agula at night James
O’Neill, nn old-tlma. favorite, will be
seen In the play which has made him
famous and contributed so much to
the advancement of stagecraft, "Monte
Crlsto.” The production Is said to bo
larger and better than ever.
Jefferson DeAngelis, one of the real
comedians of the stage, will be seen
Wednesday and Thursday nights and
Thursday matinee In "The Girl and the
Governor.” Mr. DeAngelis Is known
wherever comedy Is played. He has
scored many pronounced successes In
his career, but none of them Is said to
equal Ills present production.
On Friday night Mme. Marcella
Sembrlrh, assisted by Mr. Ellison Van
Hoose, will be heard In concert. The
Semhrlch concert will be the musical
event of the season, and promises a
great triumph for local music lovers.

Mr. Drew’s polished intellectual style

movements when necessary, find full
employment In the role of the ex-dl-

persecuted young wife. When he per

young wife, depicts her, It Is said, In

a strong artistic appreciation of her

The second appearance of the Kilties
band at the Grand Sunday afternoon
at 3 o'clock and again at night at 8:15
o’clock, in sacred concert, Is the direct
result of the many requests received
by the local management from music
lovers. The Kilties gave two concerts
last Sunday afternoon and evening,
and were heard by large audiences.
