WALTER SAVIDGE
AMUSEMENTS CLEAN
AND ENTERTAINING
As carnivals go, the Walter Sav
idge Amusement Company, which is
exhibiting here throughout this week,
is in a class by itself. It is one of
the largest and most meritorous ag
gregation of attractions that visits
O’Neill and it’s management is of a
kind that commends itself to a com
munity seeking good entertainment.
System and courtesy characterize
the conduct of everything on the show
grounds and the people evidently ap
preciate the efforts made to furnish
them entertainment of high standard,
for the attendance has been very
large.
There are riding devices of different
styles, including the lately patented
sensational ride known as “The Fly
ing Sea Planes,” which is a real
thriller; side shows with their varied
exhibitions of curiosities, all clean and
wholesome, and the many novelty
boooths, offering attractive and use
ful novelties.
Mr. Savidge’s mammoth canvas
theatre is the feature of the amuse
ments. It is made of special con
struction, affording a very large stage
with abundance of special scenery and
electric equipment advantageous
and comfortale seating arrangement
The company of stage players ap
pearing in this theatre are on a pal
with the best city companies; in fact
every member was secured from cit>
dramatic companies, we are told, anc
their fine portrayals of the various
character^ they are called upon to im
personate, stamp them all as rea
artists. Johnny Caylor, director ol
the company, plays the leading male
parts, while Adelaide Irving, a Cali
fornia and Western Coast star, is the
leading lady, and these two are sup
ported by a cast of excellent players
Their feature play, ‘.Over The Hills,’
wi'l be offered on Friday night.
Caprice Lewis gives a very artistic
and daring performance on the higl
trapeze each evening, as a free at
traction, to start tne entertainment
The? Savidge Concert Band in theii
concerts and the orchestra with it’s
musical programs proceeding the plaj
in the theatre, render some very pleas
ing music. Such good, clean amuse
ment as is offered by the Savidge
Company proves very enjoyable tc
I
the people and it is to be hoped they
will visit us often.
