not laughed many times over some Of
Charles Hoyt's plays. "A Milk White
Flag" when first presented here. made an
instantaneous hit and has been welcome at
each succeeding visit. 1t returns to-mor-
row and Saturday evening and is much
improved.

Toms Cabin" as they have been doing for
thirty odd years. No play has been more
abused than this one. 1t has been done
a day. and in overnight stands in an hour
and a half by five or six people. On the
other hand it has been treated with the
respect due it and given a legitimate pro-
duction. Being public property, any one
who thought he could make a few dollars
out of il has produced the play. The
Salter q Martin Company, which comes TO
the Park Theater for three days, COM
mencing to-day, is ore of the largest COM
panies ever organized TO produce this play.
