DAN sULLY THE POWERS.

Daniel Sully will present his new
play, "The Millionaire" At the Pow
er's opera house Friday and Saturday,
December 30 and 81, and Saturday
matinee.
Itisa play strong in dramatic effect
and with vein Of real comedy run
ming throughout By way OF brief
synopsis, il may be said that the story
hinges upon the Struggle OF an Irish
contractor, James o Brlen, against the
combined wealth and influence of q
powerful railroad syndicate. Mr..
Sully portrays the true-hearted, noble
freshman, man possessed OF very lit
tie education. but with all the require
ments of n true s<ntl9maa. 1T is de-
c;cedly the best work this actor has
done during his long and successful
career, and places him IN the ranks 81
legitimate comedians. The impersafia-
ton is humorous, freely and broadly
drawn in its humanity, and Shove all,
is absolutely faithful to the'indivldual.
Mr.. Suily is, indeed, \ true comedian,
not to be- classed with the butfoons US
ually found IN sensational plays. He
is close observer of the humble life
he portrays, and has the power of de-
plcting It's humorous rs we'll As its
pathetic side. The supporting COM
pany is composed of excellent artists,
who may be relied on to enact the var
ious characters IN the drama in q most
satisfactory manner.
