On Thursday and Friday nights Oh
last week the Amateur Dramatic Club
of Gardner Station gave an enter
tainment at the Masonic Hall in
Mckenzie. 1t being the first exhibi-
ton of the kind the citizens have had
the pleasure of enjoying for long
time, quite full house was in attend
ance, not only from that place, but
from the neighboring towns of Hunt
ingdon, Trezevant and Milan. "Ten
Nights in Bar Room" and "The
Prosecuted Dutchman were played
Thursday night. The first play was
fraught with deep feeling, pathos and
reality, representing true picture of
the drunkards life and the misery and
suffering entailed upon his wife and
family. The young man, just starting
III Hlc, was kolO"Su lIOAu LAS ialHCl :
roof to the saloon, and from the saloon
to an untimely grave. The married
man, with a loving wife and family,
surrounded by joys and comforts, sud
denly, not gradually, turned that
happy home into an. abode of despair
and misery. The pitiful end of the
barx keeper was also illustrated most
forcibly.
But, to give more effect to the play,
and, if possible, to induce some erring
one to reform, the bright side of the
picture was held up to view. There
was seen the once wretched man, who
had so long been slave to whiskey,
transformed from a groveling sot to a
gentleman of wealth and position
his wife, before heart-broken woman,
was now restored to her former bright
and joyous situation, her eyes beaming
with such happiness as could have
been observed when a blushing bride.
The play was quite affecting, and
brought tears to the eyes of many.
1t was not an overdrawn picture, but
real in every particular. More might
have been said and done without any
exaggeration of the subject. The
characters were in general well sus-
tanned, particularly the "drunkard
and sample Switched" who added
greatly to the entertainment by his
sallies of original wit.
The second play, "The Prosecuted
Dutchman," was a lAughable farce.
1t was well acted.
Friday night "Ten Nights in Bar
Room and "The Prosecuted Dutch>
man" were repeated, and in addition
was played "The Rough Diamond"
The Mckenzie String Band consti-
tuted the orchestra, and discoursed
sweet music between the scenes both
nights.
If such scenes as are represented IN
Ten Nights in Il Bar Room could
oftener be brought before the public,
much good might be done, more per-
haps than the many appeals from the
pulpit Oh that subject, for the human
hearts more easilyapprOached through
the eye than the ear-certainly more
easily through beth combined, which
We have in an innocent play.
The object of the entertainments
was to assist in paying for the new
organ at Mckenzie College. Gardner
may well be proud of her Club. Sue
cess to it. l..

The history and characteristics of
Yale College are sketched by Prof.
Beers quite fully in the leading article
