The students of the Christian
Brothers College will give an euter-
tainment at Leubrie's Theater on
Thursday evening with view OF rails
ing funds to increase their library and
gymnasium. As this Immediately

meet with liberal patronage BY OUT
people, who pride themselves on sppre.
ciating education as highly as those Of
any other city 10 the United States.
One of the Finest.
The author of Zone OF the Finest"
first presented here before a crowded
audience last night, is John Bradford,
the same who prepared Our Bache-
lors" for Robson and Crane. He made
a clever success of both efforts, il the
temper of the crowd in attendance last
night is anything to judge by. Zone
of the Finest" appears to have been
constructed with the special object
of giving Mr.. GINS Williams
a chance to display his peculiar tai
eHts and to make money for the man
sgcment. In the last OF these it has
been a decided success. for the COM
pany have enjoyed profitable patron
age throughout the season. In the
FIRST it has also Cone tOlerably, and,
while Mr.. Williams peculiar talents
may not be especially brilliant or par
ticularly captivating to refined tastes,
there is nothing offensive 10 either the
dialogue or the action. 1t contains
good deal of real fun, consider
able wit, ever so much slang,
numerous laughable features and
some rather exciting situations. 1t
has a sort oil melodramatic plot, the
same being interspersed with scenic
features of some merit. The charac
teIs in the play are all represented in
in satisfactory manner, and some are
really well done, though none were
conspicuously prominent except that
carried by Mr.. Williams. in person.
The play will be repeatedSto-night, to-
morrow afternoon and again, for tie
last time, to morrow night.
