A BACHELORS ROMANCE.
Sol Smith Russelrs New Play Pre-
sented at Wilkesbarre.

wiIkesbarre, Sept 25-Mr. Sol Smith
Russell last night presented a new
comedy, "A Bachelors Romance" for
the first time on any stage, written for
him by Martha Morton. A large and
brilliant audience witnessed the initial
production.
The play tells a pretty story Of self
sacrifice and its ultimate reward. David
Holmes (Mr. RusseID is quiet, sensi-
tive student, who has earned the place
of a literary writer on The Review. and
is made judge and reader in a $4,000
prize contest for the best serial story
submitted to the paper. David is al
most unconsciOusly in love with Silvia,
who has been thrown upon his care by
her father. Harold Reynolds, a young
member Of The Review stan, is also in
love with her. and builds his hopes up
on the $4,000 prize, which would enable
him to marry her. Thus the destiny of
the young couple is left in David's
hands. He hesitates. but his soul event
ually conquers, and he gives the prize
where it belongs. to Harold.
In a conflict of the two men, however,
character finally triumphs and David
is rewarded with the disinterested love
of the young girl. The play was inter
preted by an adequate company, in
which. of course, Mr.. Russell stands
pre-eminent for his quaint charasteriza-
ton.
