What Happened to Jones Style Theatrical Tales Told
The article recounts past comedic triumphs of Harry Carson Clarke and Frank Daniels, including how Clarke once filled a lead salary with chorus work after being sidelined. It notes Delmore and Wilson joining the Grand with My Aunt's Nephew, and describes The Belle of New York as a fast paced extravaganza driven by performances. It also corrects a prior report on Nat Goodwin, stating he was injured in a fight in Butte, not drugged, delaying his western tour and England voyage.

Londoners crave London fame for American actors
A dated theatre discussion notes that American players go to London chasing prestige but pay high prices for limited returns. Daniel Frohman explains Sothern can earn 12000 weekly in America, while a London house rarely nets more than 700. The piece cites shifts in stage economics and star movement across the Atlantic. It also mentions Lucille Thayer suing Lionel Manson for 50000 over a broken engagement, with Manson denying vows.

A mining claim co ownership notice warns Pat O Neil to pay $42 within 90 days or lose one fifth interest to Dennis O Donnell.
