Show THE NEW BILLS. SALT LAKE THEATRE The Garrick players will have the Theatre for another week, beginning begin-ning next Monday and the bill is to be the first production here of "Salvation Nell," since Mrs. Fiske herself played the Sheldon drama locally three years ago. At that time it was given in the old Grand, where lack of stage room and producing pro-ducing facilities hampered the star and her company com-pany in making the play scenically all the author intended. The Garrick people are staging it elaborately elabor-ately at the Salt .Lake for the coming week, and as Mr. Hall and Miss Adair, the leading people of the company, played the drama for several weeks together last year on the coast, an unusually unusu-ally well acted presentation is looked for. COLONIAL For three nights and a matinee, beginning Monday evening of next week, William Hodge and his supporting company will present "The Man From Home," at the Colonial. Hodge originated the principal role in the play which had a long eastern run and which has been enjoyed en-joyed hero before. The star is one of the most distinctive of comedians and his appearance in the -play will invest its production at the Colonial next week with added interest.
