That droll and impudent jester, Peter F.
Daley. brings a brand-new farce and big
company OF funmakers to the Academy OF
Philadelphia, Boston, New York and other
cities have already generously indorsed the
fun OF the new piece, it is said. John j. Me-
Nally, who wrote "A Country Sport" and
The Night Clerk for Daley, is the author
OF the new cOncOction. which is described as
an out-and-out farce. The first scene uf the
play reveals the playground of girls semi-
nary. Daley appears as the clerk OF a comic
Irish auctioneer, who is selling off the
chattels OF the school. The auctioneer and
an eccentric old granger are in love with
the seminary's lively principal DALEY, as
the clerk, is turned loose on the seminary
with the curtains rise. and when it falls on
the first act he has sold everything and
every one in sight, has engaged himself to
every one or the schools fair pupils and has
hopeleSsly enmeshed i'll the plays comics
the suits or The auctiOneer and the farmer for
the hand OF the seminary's teacher The
second act passes in the New York auction
room OF the comedians employer. Here
Daley seizes every opportunity To multiply
the complications and the fun. This act
serves for the Introduction of the special
ties. The last act, showing the home of the
Irish auctioneer. is used to enhance the
auctioneer clerks comic mischief, intro
duce more specialties and close the story
alniably and mirthfully, In the first act
Daley assumes the caricature of a round
and jovial wench for a brief period. and in
the second act resorts to a number of funny
DISCUSSES to effect his points
