weighed, and the boy tipped the
Dean at one pound, while the girls weight
was wa one-quarter of pound short of this.
MRS Sadie Gray, the nurse in charge of the
NUGGETS, was present at the weighing, and

THE MILLIONAIRE"

The author OF Natural Gas has written
q four-act comedy-drama entitled The
Millionaire, " and, as usual with humorous
writer's when they desire to escape from
their funny selves. he has gone to the other
extreme. There is little comedy OF any very
appeallng nature in The Millionaire"
which was presented for the fist time in
New York at the New Park Theatre last
niuht, with Dan Sully as the millionaire
star.
The main idea Of the play is a very good
one-that of the construction OF a railroad
line, which, through the terms OF q contract.
must be completed by . certain hour, or it
is useless. Three railroad villains conspire
to prevent Mr.. James OBrlen's fulflment OF
his contract. inc OBrien foils them by his
native Hibernian ingenuity, winning the
workmeu over TO his own cause and over
whelming the villains while disguised asa
foreman.
All this occurs in the third act, in which
there is a realistic picture OF the rocky
gorge in the Pennsylvania mountains and
the construction of the railroad. tn first
two acts are very tedious and unworthy,
dealing with abieet cony~entionaitiea. and
being literally sprinkled with cheap Senti-
ment. The author puts SOM very unin-
terestlng twaddle into the mouth OF his
millionaire. Can a workingman be a
gentleman Was one OF the nice points that

reason, inasmuch as he didn't know what 70
do with his arms, and sinned against good
taste in his own house But the makeup
