Show An alleged actor named Bandmann gave a very "rocky" performance of "Tho Merchant of Venice" in the Salt Lake theater last Monday evening before an i. t i auuionce or about one hundred people. The theater-goers of this city, however, well knowing Bandmann to be a ten-cent ten-cent actor, preferred to witness the acting act-ing of the hoifer in "Evangeline" at the Grand opera house, which place was crowdod. Anyone who has seen the acting of "Evangeline's" heifer and com pared it with that of Bandmann, will unhesitatingly say that the heifer is much the better actor. Bandmunn, who of late years has played mostly in ten-cent ten-cent theaters and dime museums, where he properly belongs, naturally felt offended of-fended at the preference shown for the heifer, and this explains why this eminently emi-nently bad actor has published in an Ogden paper a letter in which ho attempts at-tempts to flatten out Salt Luke, whose boom he stigmatizes as a Foap bubble. Poor old B:tndmanu ! You have seen better bet-ter days and at times you have had lucid intervals but not recently. Go, get thoo, tj an insane asylum. |
