Entertainments.

Temperance Town" was prod duced before very large audience last night.

 A delightful treat is assured for all who attend tonight and tomorrow night at the Hyperion in the comedy by Belasoo and Fyle 'The Girl Left Behind Me-" The play Ia distinctivsly American, dealing with life ct frontier garrison. The thrill ing scenes and incidents attendant upon the troops preparing for and leaving the fort on a campaign against the Indians are brought out with realistic effect in the piece. A charming love scene relieves the strain of the martial scene, rounding ont the plot in harmonious whole. From in- dications the sale of seats will be large. The climax of the play is reached when the hero returns backed by his soldiers to the relief of his comrades, who are about to succumb to the Indians, and just at the moment when the general Is about to shoot his brave daughter, who prefers death to degradation. The Boston Herald Is loud in enthusiastic praise of the piece, and says its reception in Boston was a | grand triumph, arousiDg great enthu- sissm.

"So many people pre- tend to be good, that it is sweet and mod est to pretend to be bad" "Wicked wo- men bother one, good women bore one. that's the only difference between them !"
