s. The Two Sisters"

When Denman Thompson and
George Ryer wrote "The Old Home
stead" and ''1he Two Sisters" they be-
gan in quiet way an important revo-
luton in dramatic workmanship. 1t
was good thing for the drama when it
got out of tie wigs, and off from tall
heeled shoes, and spoke the language
of the people instead of French rhyme
and English and German blank verse,
for then it came closer to the populace
and reflected it's joys, sorrows, employ
ments and aspirations, more truly than
was possible in the old stilted, bonn
bastic form. "The Two Sistersu will be
seen at the Opera House, Saturday
evening. AS a moral lesson it is as
sweet as flowers by waysides of coun-
try roads charming because they are
natural. The first act is a ha! ha! of
the second act short mel
odrama in rare picture representing a
part of Central Park, warm with the
sunshine; the third act novel
and the prettiest kind of love-making
scene, and the last act a pathetic human
little comedy drama. Tears, laughter
and applause cannot but get inter
mingled before such wholesome COM
plete exhibition of the tenderest and
most natural bond of human sympa-
thy. 1t is a pleasure to see play SO
true to human nature.

Gorton's Minstrels.

Gorton's Minstrels played to a fair
sized audience at the Opera House last
Friday evening. The first part was eX-
cellent, the singing being far ahead of
that heard at ordinary minstrel shows
and the end men having a supply of
new gags. The olio, too, was up to the
high standard of the show on its pre-
vious visits and the entire entertain
ment was one of pleasure to every pat
ron. The band gave concert in the
square at noon and also in the evening
before the show. This band is Gorton' IS
pride, and it fairly sustains his claim
of being the best minstrel band travel
ing. G. E. Capron was local manager.

A Cheap Wagon.

Ed Gould's baggage wagon broke
down Tuesday evening and was hauled
to the side of the street near Truax &
Co.'S where it remained all day yester-
day. Some person with a sense of hu-

wagon bearing the information to all
who passed. that they could purchase a
good vehicle at moderate price. To
be more precise the placlrd read:

THEY MADE NOTHING;
That's the Score the Bellows Falls
Team Rolled Up.

The Bellows Falls foot ball eleven
went out to SaXton's River last Satur-
day for their initial game of the season
with the Vermont Academy boys.
Quite few from here accompanied the
team and they hoped to see them score
at least once against the Academy
eleven. But alas, they were doomed to
disappointment. 1t was seldom that
they had the ball in V. AS territory;
and could only hold it there for few
minutes. The Academy team was
much heavier. 1t certainly appeared
that the men would average 20 pounds
more in weight. Added to this their
better knowledge of the game and good
team work and our boys did not stand
a ghost of show.
Bellows Falls had the ball at the
opening of the game but did notihold it
in V. AS territory half a minute, their
opponents scoring touchdown inside
of minute after play was called.
They failed to kick goal and also

was made a few minutes later. After
that, nearly every kick was successful,
and there were plenty of them to prac-
tice on. The interference of both teams
was good, but when the Academ men
started around the end they would take
the ball the whole length OF the field
nearly every time. That is how every
touchdown was M ade and the Bellows
Falls boys could not stop it. The
strength and science were both on one
side and it was little wonder that the

Everything was against them and
though they worked hard they suffered
the crushing defeat of 60 to 0. When
they get to playing with teams of their
weight they may do better. The game
Saturday was good practice for them
and they should have got some points
from it that will aid them in future
