The bill of faro was headed by a- my-ierioiis drama entitled "The Veiled Prophet.''

"The Players" was an excellent conception of real happenings in the lives of stage actors, on and off the .stage. It was by tlio Lubin Company, and featured Miss Dimi-Havley. "Winning of a Widow" (by Kalom) was a very humorous study, showing a young man's persistent wooing of a very attractive young widow, and his ultimate success.
