BIJOU THEATRE, WOONSOCKET, R. I., Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, June 18, 19 and 20.
MARCH'S MUSICAL MERRY MAKERS--"The Broken Idol"--The scene is laid in the famous Chinatown of Los Angeles; the costumes and electrical effects are very fine; singing, dancing, etc.

I was rather disappointed at the attendance this afternoon, thought we should have had a larger attendance ($96.00) this seemed small for such a show--but to-night was quite different crowded house-everyone seems to like the show and as they passed out quite a number told me that if this show don't bring them nothing will; so I look for a big week.
