Manager Joe Cohen of the Orpheum, and wife, Ethel Dixon, leave ^for San Francisco on "the Australia on the 17th. Manager Cohen expects to do some good bookings for his house for the coming season. One of the companies to come will be an opera troupe, probably the Grand Opera House Company. H. A. Fran son. Some Big Benefits The presence of the veteran manager, John Maguire, in New York on a^visit, recalls the big benefit given him in 1888 when his theatre burned down in Butte, Mont. That Mr. Maguire was highly regarded in that locality may be inferred from the fact that the benefit tendered him, when his theatre in Butte, Mont., burned down in 1888, netted him $30,280. Not so bad for Butte, Mont. The Nellie Farren benefit in London netted about $36,000. Henry E. Abbey realized $32,000 out of his testimonial, and the Walleck benefit netted $26,000. But these affairs were given in the two greatest cities in the world, and the Maguire testimonial, occurring, as it did, in the far West, supported'principally by Montana friends to the beneficiary, may be regarded as unique in the history of theatricals. The performance took place atVthe race track in Butte. The belles of the town acted as waitresses on that occasion, bank clerks washed dishes, and a supreme court judge was on the business staff of the committee in charge. Every establishment of importance in Butte was closed on the afternoon the benefit took place, but all employes received their wages for the full day. Maguire's theatre was not insured and $67,000 worth of property went up in smoke. The benefit given the returning California Volunteers, at the Orpheum several months ago, was quite successful, netting over $10,000. f I.
