Daddy Nolan" Tonight.

The popular actor, Mr.. Daniel Sully,
will appear at the Opera House this even
Ing in the new and beautiful drama,
Daddy Nolan" which is spoken Of very
highly by the press of other cities. Mr..
Sully's company is said to be excellent and
he may expecta big reception. The singing
and dancing of the different members
of the company is good. The
Louisville Courier Journal gives the follow
ing outlinej OF the piece: Mr.. Dan'l Sully
played his new play, Daddy Nolan, to an
appreciative audience at Macauley's
Theater last night, and both the actor and
PLAY scored a decided hit. The story OF
Daddy Nolan is simple and ingenious.
The plot hangs on the fact that q wild son
has forged his fathers name to notes for
n large amount of money. The old man
meets the notes, but is reduced to poverty.
He drives the son from his home
telling him 10 remain away until he can
come back an honest man. Daddy Nolan,
however. receives the sons wife and child
into his home. He had been ignorant of
their existence until the crime was com-
mitted. There is happiness in the humble
home, Notwithstanding the poverty, until
old Nolan has to make up his last pay
mentS. Then he falls into the clutches of a
pretended friend, AMI is saved only by the
timely arrival of Tom, who has made a
fortune in the West,
