Theate» There was a good crowd at the theater last night, and those who were fortunate enough to be present were treated to a quod all ot the two hours that they were in the house. The company presented Broadhnrst's good comedy "What Happened to Jones." and did it exceedingly well. The story affords a fine chance for the members of the company and they made the most of it last night. Pro- fVs*or Goodly and others go out for a ■"lark and attend a prize fight. They get into r mixup with the police and the professor and Jones are badly handled. Jones, in order to escape from the panning party, in company with Professor Goodly, takes refuge in the housa of the latter. Jones then embarks upon a lying ex pedition and ii order to accnnt ufro his presence in the house, pisses as tie brother of t'»e professor. Bishop of Bal larat. whom they ara daily c; Kseting to pay them a visit. The bishop ar rives and Jones continues to lie. The sitation becomes mote and mt<6 com plicated until Jones is finally com pelled to make a confession. A pretty little love story comes into the play, but its chief me-it is in the fact thai it is a comedy from start to finish and that the vulgar elements are kept in the background all of the tinu. As a whole It w»s a thoroughly first class performance and well worthy of the generous patronage it received It is by far the best company that has been seen in Wenatchee this sea son, and with attractions of this kind the success of the theater as a place of entertainment is assured. Tonight " The Ensign," one of the best military plays that has ever been written will be produced.
