support appear are absolutely his own
property, written by an experienced
and prolific dramatist to Mr. Bessey's own special order. Hitherto the repertoire manager had to content himself, if honest, with the old and worn

drama, yellow in most instances, in
more senses than one, or else at ex

hausted plays that the syndicate has discarded as being no longer profitable. Those who were dishonest af
filiated themselves with the Chicago
pirates and offered the public mangled
versions of the successes of the east

Mr. Bessey, who Is a keen, alert business man, besides being an actor, has seen the handwriting on the wall. His company this season will compare favorably with any of the higher priced stock organizations. It is composed of ladles and gentlemen
who are all students of their art. Miss
