ll "Shore Acres," that excellent play of the
H !l Pine Tree state, closes for the week at the Col-
fljgp onial with today's two performances, and it is
Hffil no more than is due the production to state that
H K. it has not only proven one of the best presented
H jjtl plays the new theatre has had, but has enjoyed
rL a commeasurato patronage since Monday. Archie
ilv Boyd is always likable in his character work, and
P as Uncle ftat presents a charming characteriza
tion. Dorothy Heme, youngest daughter of the
1 late James A. Heme, is carrying the leading
feminine role, and she is excellent. Annie Mor-
IjI' ton, Mr. Wallace, and Mr. Walsh are all capable
M ' people, and the play is well staged.

'j'' It has been some time since a military drama
B has received a worthier presentation than that
B given William Gillette's famous old play "Secret
H I' Service," at the Bungalow since Monday even-
H ing by Willard Mack and company. Mr. Mack,
H f in the role of Captain Thorne, and Blanche Doug-
H f las as Miss Varney, have played those two roles
H ; with excellent success, and as the remaining
H members of the Mack organization are well cast
H I in the other parts in the play, the production
Wi has scored an excellent week.

H Beginning Monday, the Salt Lake Theatre
Hj offers Gadski in concert for that evening, the
Hi comic opera "Bahette," by the Agricultural Col-
Hr lege Opera company, Wednesday evening, and
Hj! Florence Roberts in "The Hou3e of Bondage"
H Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The latter
Hj should be really the dramatic event of the week,
Hj ' as Miss Roberts in "The House of Bondage," has
Hl received tho credit of having the best play she
Hn has had in the past two or three seasons.

H At the Bungalow tomorrow night, Wnlard
m Mack supplants his war play of the present wee
B with the Henry Dixie's success "The Man on the
' Box," the play Max Figman has made famous
M and popular throughout the west. Mr. Mack will
m appear in the Dixie role of Lieutenant Robert
B Warburton. "The Man on the Box" is a clever,
m original, and entertaining comedy.
M The vaudeville season at the Grand opened
H this week. The "White Rats" organization of
1 New York and Chicago, supplying the acts. The
M opening program contained considerable talent
m and has proven popular through the week with
' those who have witnessed the performances.
m The Three Sados head the bill with an excellent
M juggling act.
m The program for the coming week opens to-
m morrow night. Three performances are given
m daily at the Grand, one in the afternoon and two
V in the evening, and under the direction of its
B new manager, Mr. Binford, the theatre is get-
m ting back into something like its old form.

M When Phil S. O'Mara reopened the Auditorium
M on Richards street as a roller skating rink the
fl move was welcomed by hundreds who had missed
H the sport. They who thought the roller skat-
H ing game dead should visit the rink any af-
m ternoon or evening, Sunday's excepted, and witr
B- ness tho fun that goes on. Judging from the
&2V daily attendance it is just the sort of amusement
the people want and the result has been that
B it has been necessary to add 500 pairs of skates
B to the stock on hand.
B Private parties constitute a popular feature
H at the rink, a number being given each week. A
jH space in tho big place is reserved for them, but
Hj of course the regular patrons are not excluded.
