The Great World.

This big scenic production will be produced at the Opera House on Friday eve., Oct. 30. 10,000 feet of special scenery is carried by the management for this great play. The company is a clever one and embraces several well known artists. No matter how small the stage every piece of scenery will be used. Among the many scenic effects is the great ship scene, the sinking of a big ocean liner, the wonderful raft scene, adrift in mid ocean, the rescue by a passing steamer, and the storm at sea. All the electrical effects are carried for the “great storm scene.” No play of such magnitude has ever been produced in any city. It is worth coming miles to see. Seats now on sale at usual place. Prices 15, 25 and 35 cents.
