MUSIC AND DRAMA.
The New South.

long time that has created more favor
able comment than the New South, 81
which is to be produced at the Portland
theatre, next Wednesday evening. 1t is
not war play, and treats Of condition
OF affairs that exist in tina Southern
States today. 1t is great play in every
sense of the term. It's comedy is well
written, and keeps its auditors in good
humor from the rise to the fall of the
curtain. The dramatic climaxes are un-
usually strong and at the end OF every act
a remarkably realistic situation is given
Those who saw it when it was prod uced
at Portland theatre before will want to
see it again.
