Of the many stock ' companies in existence during the past few years, the last formed and newest ~Proctor's Big Stock Company—is the only one remaining. When Mr. Proctor announced his intention of changing his policy from vaudeville to stock. it seemed to he the general im- pression that success lay. if at all, in the/ dim distdnt future. The present wonderful prosch‘ity bears out the ac- umen of his judgment. Not only did the new plan acquire'instant recognition from the theatrical world at large. but the New York public seemed delighted at the opportunity offered it to see for the nominal sum of fifty cents a pro duction worthy in all respects of the two dollar houses along Broadway. During the coming season the combat!)' will even surpass in general excellence that of last; and this it must be ac- knowiedged. is saying much for the salary lists of the various Proctor Stock Companies excel those of any other stock companies in America, by a big margin. The summer stock season opened at Mr. Proctor’s Albany house a short time ago. and already the season has shown a marked increase both financ- ially and in popularity over last year. A splendid company of competent act- ors and actresses comprise the weekly casts and till the various miss of bright sparkling comedies and well known dramas Many new plays are scheduled to be ”tried out” at this house and later on will be given their metropolitan debuts at Proctor‘s Fifth Avenue playhouse in New York City Far away from the million blinking. twinkling, white lights of Broadway and up in a city apart from a city is situated Proctor's One Hundred and Twenty-fifth Street house, the only stock house in Harlem. For the sum- mer season a splendid company of fa- vorite players (mostly comedians) headed by Adelaide Kelm and Willard Blackmore. will present in short or- der all the beat metropolitan success. es. made famous by Broadway players for the past five years. For each pro duction or revival new scenery and electrical embellishments are con- structed. When one thinks of receiving all this in conjunction with star vau- deville between the acts. and at such low prices as 15, 25 and 75 cents. one is indeed contemplating a “good thipg." Miss Florence Reed's rapid rise from the ranks of the “aspirant” to the po- sition of leading lady is a credit to her- self as well as Mr. Prectior, under whose skillful management she has made such rapid strides. Miss Reed made her theatrical debut with Mr. Proctor in vaudeville, and after - six weeks of this hranch,_'she accepted a part in “Dr. Bill." the first play pro duced by Mr Proctor whenthe policy was changed from straight vaudeville to combination stock and vaudeville From that time Miss Reed has worked incessantly rising rapidly and pinyin: all kinds of roles. until now she has succeeded Miss Seligman at Proctor's Fifth Avenue where she intends play ing the greater part of the summer. Notwithstanding the: t that sum- mer is here to my. the quality and quantity of the high class vaudeville that has been characteristic of Proc- tor’s Twenty third street for so many years will remain the same. The change of seasons is notv'tsared by Mr. Proctor. and summer,.w titer sees the same ideal show afteru and even- ing as those booked during the winter months. Many new novelties have been “searched out" during the last few months and will be produced in rapid succession at this model play house during the season.- MAROTTA iNDIcTID FOR MURDER BOSTON.- June G—Forty-six indict. ments and twenty-Iva "No" soils were reported by the Suffolk county grand Jury in the SnpcriorCount here today.
