Shilling Shill-ing is not well known to theatre-goers in this locality, but our people had sufficient confidence con-fidence in htm to fill the house, and they were not disappointed, for all were unanimous unani-mous in expressing satisfaction and pronouncing pro-nouncing the performance an exceedingly clever one. In organizing his company Mr. Shilling has shown rare judgment, and has succeeded in making everything in the show good. Nothing is' tolerable, but first-class, and every act and specialty was enthusiastically received by the audience. All who went last night congratulated themselves thereat, and all say those who failed to go missed a great treat. Success is sure to come to this popular company, and if they ever come back they will be even better received than they were last night. i An interesting story well told is Joseph Arihur's "The Still Alarm," and the theater goers of this city will no doubt welcome its second appearance at the Salt Lake theater next Thursday night, when it begins a run of three nights and a Saturday matinee. It comes with a strong cast, headed by Will S. Harkins, a fine actor of romantic roles. A fine quartette of male voices are employed in its production,. "With it comes Mr. Arthur's clever neice, Little Tuesday, who is the youngest star on the stage, only 6 years old, but so clever that her reputation is national.
