Park-.TIe Derby Mascot,

Two of the usual big and enthusiastic
Monday audiences that are pretty nearly al
ways sure to be found at The Park, liked
7 h Derby Mascot yesterday. The Incl
dents of the plot are calculated to keep the
audience on the anxious seat throughout
the performance. Jack Marston and AM
drew knight, two wealthy horsemen of
Texas, love Nellie Cheneworth, the daugh-
ter of an old miser. Jack is the guardian of
his niece, Little Tex the daughter of his
elder brother George. George had married
and deserted a laughter of the aforesaid
miser, who naturally objects to Jacks
courtship of Nellie. TIL rivalry of the two
suitors eliminates in q horse race. Jacks
Jockey is drugged at the instigation of
knight, but Little Tex at the last
moment takes the Jockeys place and rides
the horse to victory. Then Nellie marries
Jack clandestinely and her father promptly
bids her leave his house forever. Knigh
then gets in his fine work by numbering the
parsimonious and stony-hearted parent in
order TO have Jack arrested and convicted
of the crime. The day before Jacks exc
cution Is to take place the villain is run to
earth, by some clever detective work of
Little Tex Jack is reprieved and
The race scene is very exciting, and the

good one and the piece is in for asbig week
