MUSIC AND DRAMA.
The Two sisters


The attraction at the Portland Theatre
Friday and Saturday evenings will be
Denman Thompson and George Ryer's
powerful realistic drama, "The Two
Sisters" and it will undoubtedly draw
as large audiences as in the past. There
are some plays that the public seem
never to tire of, and this is one of them.
1t is a play that touches every heart,
for it's story can be duplicated in any
locality. Like songs that become popu-
lar among the people because they are of
the people, SO has this play become popu
lar. While it is full Of fun, jollity and
humorous situations, it draws a strong
and faithful picture Of all that surrounds
young people in the way of dangers in
great city land presents scenes and
characters that are to be met with every
day.
My Partner.
Mr.. Louis Aldrich, whose Joe Saunders
in "My Partner is well known here will
be seen at the Portland Theatre next
Monday and Tuesday evenings. Most of
us know the play almost BY heart. but
for the benefit of those who have never
seen it it may be said that it tells a
strong and pathetic story of California
life. The crude and conventional ideas
of society asit existed in 40 are dispensed
with, and instead of all the characters
carrying revolvers and bowie knives, a
true picture of the real acts and feelings
of real men and women is given. The
play is remarkable for the consistency of
it's story. the brightness of it's dialogue,
the force Of it's dramatic situations and
the keen humor of its comedy, with
which it is plentifully. interspersed.
Seats will be ready at the box Office
at $50 this morning.

In the aftern Don the first event was the
best of the day. 1t was the most closely

OF the game. His serving was very swift
and sure. He took the first set, So.
But Fuller began to brace up after that
and took the second set, 60. The third set
was very closely contested. Fuller showed
himself the coolest in the crisis, and as the
need of it increased played better and bet
