THE GOLDENS IN N-LESS.
An Absorbing Drama
Handsomely Presented.

As early as II a. IN. yesterday every
reserve seat ticket left on sale at SlssOn's
music store had been sold and Mr.. Ash
sent sor one hundred more. At 6 p. IN.
the last seat in the house had been re-
served and people were paying for chairs
in the aisle. This Is something that
never before occurred in Waco. We
have seen the house packed, but never
has the last seat been sold at any pre-
vious time before the house was opened
for the evenings entertainment. For
half an hour before the curtain rose the
orchestra discoursed some of the finest
pieces ever heard III the house, and
PROMPTLY at s the music stopped and
the curtain was rmg up. By this time
the gallery was packed, and the aisle
from the door to the stage filed. Until
II D. m. the vast audience remained de-
lighted spectators. Miss is one of
tho,e interesting thrilling dramas, the
plot of which is land IN the heart of the
Sierra Nevada. Bella Golden, as NJ Hiss,
is the heroine of the play. The curtain
rises on a miners camp, with
four or five men engaged In
gambling. Two of them quarrel,
and M'Liss makes her appearance in
time to save bloodshed. OF the group is
"Yuba Bill" stage driver, character
which Martin Golden sustained admlra-
bly,. W. A. Mason represented "Old
hummer Smith, father of M'LisS, and
took the character to the life. Bella
/ Golden. AS his daughter, Is the picture of
what We might expect to see the
daughter of drunken miner Reared
without restraint She becomes self

{ Is looked down upon on account of her

/ devoted. though az the greatest sacrifice.
/ J. L. Wilson, as Charles Greathouse,

as the mine is called and among
. bis pupils are Clyte Norpher Miss Kate
Batrliugamel. a rival Of MLiss and the
Old bummer's daughter. Harry Robin
son. of whom no Waco audience can
think of without laughing, took the part
of Judge McSuarley, and appears just in
tim to prevent a difficulty between
Miss and Clyte, brought about on re-
on account of the schOOl-teacher and
Clyre's hauEhtinoss toward Hiss. Ii
the second act we find old Smith, labor.
ing under dehrium tremens, brought
ahout Inv his excessive use of alcohol. and
the faithful Miss by his side, nursing
and Inducing him in his wauderinrs.
