MINNEAPOLIS ADJUSTMENTS

day evening, 'Fanehon." Saturday
night, Little Barefoot" Miss Mitchell
has met with great success with her
latest play Ray" and it will occupy an
important place in her repertoire dur
ing the coming season. Written eX-
preSsly for her, it contains situations
and lines that always brings down the
house. The story of the play Is simple
and it is told in a straightforward man
ner. Ray Golden is young girl who
has been brought up by a labor re-
former, man who lacks much, but
does little work and besides being
poor and ignorant, it is supposed
that the young girl IS the
the heir of a great manufacturing
establishment is in love with Ray, but
is so weak-minded that when the Will
ain of the play, Mark Walworth, points
out to him that he cannot wed Ray, who
is of doubtful parentage, he gives her
up and agrees to a scheme or bis
mother, that he shall wed the heireSs.
Finally, however, the young man sees
the unmanlineSS Of his action, and his
love triumphs over his prejudices and
Ray is made happy. An escaped con-
Wet, whom Ray assists to elude his
purSuers in the first act, returns to the
scene, and in the later acts plays an i'm
pOrtantpart in settling the fact that Ray
is really the legitimate child and the
rightful heir to the property Mr..
VOrell holds. The relation of this con-
Wet to the other characters OF the play
is skillfully concealed, and when it is
announced in the last act that he is
Rays father and that he was convicted
of a crime really committed by Mark
Walworth, the audience is taken by
surprise.
"Ray" will be staged in most hand
some manner, and the other plays will
be as handsomely mounted.
