over the Rock Island road. which he
describes as chat best OF railways" and
says:
We literally flew over upland and low

thence up that stream to the divide be-
tween the Illinois and the Mississippi
thence on To the historic point on that

acres, and was originally studded with
nearly every variety of forest tree in

Hoyt'- "nra-- Monkey

At Harper's theatre on next Tuesday
evening will appear the original CONS
pany in the production of Brass Mon
key" With the production Of "A Brass
Monkey" that clever playwright, Charles
II. Hoyt. adds another success To the un-
broken series OF them which has marked
his career. And the success OF "A Brass
Monkey" is much better and more sat-
isfsctory success than that achieved by
any of his predecessors. The comedy
has far more dramatic value than "A
Bunch of Keys" or "A Rag Baby -
Without for moment sacrificing any of
the healthy fun which has characterized
his previous work, Mr.. Hoyt has in this
piece woven his absurdities into a con
nected story. There is just as much
bright and attractive music, graceful
dancing by pretty girls and picturesque
specialties distributed through the even>
ing as there were in the case OF Mr.
Hoyts earlier comedies, but in "a
Brass Monkey" the thread of the story is
never lost. and effective and uproariously
funny climaxes, growing naturally out of
the situation, bring the acts to finish
The story Of the comedy is of Doolittle
Work, who is heir to the fortune aud the
auction room of an eccentric uncle. The
legacy, is burdened however, by the con-
dition that the young man accept and
cherish the brass monkey, grotesque
little figure, which had come into the
auction room on business, but had never
been knocked down TO the highest bid
der The old mans friends always de-
clsred that its presence was the source of
all his marital troubles-he had had four
divorces-but he laughed at the super
stition of and stipulated in his will that II
his nephew was Rot prepared also to
laugh at such absurdities, he sh ould not
envoy what wealth he had to leave The
young man accepts the fortune and the
brass monkey, and his resulting misfor-
tunes, which include the loss Of the girl
to whom he is engaged. furnish the Incl.
dents to the comedy.
