Oae matinee Sunday and holidays. Has Flavor of the East. To a dis criminating audience, "Under the liar vest Moon" appeals Irresistibly and the flavor of the east, with its manner and conventionalities brings up mem cries of other days and of descriptions read. TlTe play gives great opportuni ties for scenic picturesqueness, which is fully embraced. The immense suc cess of this play proves that this style 'of high class, pure, wholesomo comedy 'finds flavor everywhere. There is much interest in the announcement of its appearance at the Illinois Satur day next, matinee and evening. "Paid in Full." When a play not only grips the heart strings but plays an intermezzo on the tender chords, it bears the hallmark of a great success. It is not surprising, therefore, tha l"Paid 4P Full"' has made an appeal which has been heeded. Eugene Wal ter actually lived the play." He breath ed his very existence into it. It is al most unnecessary, to say at the very beginning that the play is not a sweet meat. It is very strong food and should be taken by those who wish to harrow their very sbiils by a chapte from the lives of everyday people who are enacting the sordid tragedy of ex istence where sin is not so gilded that we are blinded by the glitter. It is the story of a sullen, vicious, resentfvil husband who has become so embit tered in the daily grind that every spark of manhood has been wiped out He finally sacrifices his wife to smear over, if possible, with his employer his theft. 'Oe very goodness and inno cence ! his wife is her most effective shield. With a powerful cast of play ers, "Paid in Full" will again be, pre sented for your approval at the-Illinois theater Jan. 22.- ' 1 8 yusi one more tomorrow.

Throughout the musical numbers are not merely to givean opportunity for a soprano, or tenor solo, but in each and every instance to carry on the action of the piece. The production of "The Golden Butterfly" marks a distinct era in;real comic opera. V The scene of the opera is laid in romantic Buda Pesth on the blue wa ters of the Danube, and Mr. DeKoven At the Eilite. During the rendition of the play at the Elite theater which the "Cooper Stock company is putting on, it was announced last evening that in future there wil be matinees twice a week,, instead of every day. These afternoon shows will come on Thurs day and Sunday and a new play will be given each time. The company this week has not changed 'its bill but the play is an Interesting little drama and has drawn good houses. Next week, however, the giving of two plays a week will commence. The two mati nees will be treated as souvenir mati nees. : At the Famijy. The list of attrac tions at the Family changed last even ing and the bill being presented for tlw remainder of this week is P to the usual standard. Sutton and Sutton are presenting a comedy sketch entitled "The Rube and the Pumpkin." Tha act is filled with feats of contortion Toward the close of the act a larg pumpkin rolled onto the stage and to the amazement of the patrons of the house, the pumpkin opens and Miss Sutton, a very pretty little woman, ap pears 'in tights. Following this she does a number of feats in contortion Fred Morton, the only single on the bill is 'presenting a unique act in which he features paper tearing. He is also a trick harmonica player and whistler. Jennings and Goelet are presenting an other unique act with music, dancing and cane swinging. Gordon and Marx, two of the most clever German come dians on the road, is probably the feat ure attraction of the bill. They have added a number.of new jokes to their vocabulary. Mrs! Casey ; is singing Give Me Back My Dolly, and the Kiss t IS 4X Russian Christian?': asks Vera Reven dal o.f David, Quixano in this remark- ble play. "Are-'fienot both Ameri cans?" is the umlling answer, and that is the motive around which the Zaug Will drama is built, '" It is the spirit of Americanism and the strong patriotism which permeates the play, which gives, it the great hold on the theater going public of Chicago. .Not only does the theme treat of .

' Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 8. The local option elections in Ohio under the Rose law last year have presented a problem that scores of small cities and towns in Ohio must solve. . As each saloon paid $1,000 a year tax and as the towns where the saloons were located got most of the tax. the voting out of these establishments means a shortage in the taxes the coming year. As a result the towns are cutting ex penses. In several cities of over 20,- 009 salaries of the police and firemen have been cut. In others It has been decided to limiriate street cleaning and ciarge the property owners extra for street sprinkling and do away with band concerts during the summer. .
