institution certainly as widely known as
any of the interesting features of the me.

The play faithfully depicts the life of ar
honest and poor civil engineer, Jack Wal
ton, and his struggles against the crafty
schemes of Robert Carlton, master of the
works 10 which Walton Is employed, who
wishes to ruin Walton in order to obtain q
fortune which rightfully belongs to Wal
toms wife. The piece is eIcsllently
staged. One of the striking scenes in tbs
fourth act, where tho interior of an iron
mill is shown in active operation, while
the Kissing steam, the sounding of the
whistle and the regular working of the
furnaces form trio of such exact meohau
icsl reproduction as to lend to this scene
q most life-lik reality. Besides the iron
mill, "Msster and Man" is full of the mos,
