NOT LACKING IN REALISM.
Dan Sully Will This Evening Present HIS
Great Play "O'Brien, the Contractor"

Dan Sully Will This Evening Present HIS
Great Play "O'Brien. the Contractor"
Daniel Sully will present his successful
play, ''O'Biien, the Contractor" at the
Opera House this evening. Mr.. Sully Is a
peculiarly vigorous and manly actor,
agreeably free from mannerisms and stage
affections; "O'Brien, the Contractor" is
said to be play Of marked dramatic pos
sibilities, with story that sustains its
interest to the end. 1t is not lacking i'm
realism, the railroad building scene In the
second act being particularly lifelike and
true to nature, while the driving of the
'sGolden Spike" creates unbounded en-
thusiasm.
"O'Brien, the Contractor" Is one of
those plays that will excite critical enthu-
siasm, and il has many exccllencies that
other dramas Of the present day do not
possess. In the first place 1t aims to pre-
scnt moral hero drawn from actual life,
and ii does present him without any ex-
traneous thcatric nonsense and without
| any sophistry. IL is the story Of an Irish
man who Is proud To bc an American, and
who has clean, healthy, simple sense of
the heroisn OF labor and the honor of
doing his duty.
The play has an ethical and literary
value. Mr.. Sully as O'Bricn presents a
manly, unpretentious type Of Irishman in
contradistinction to the worn out stage
type, and he plays the parsonage with a
simple sincerity that Is very effective and
| admirable.
The play will be repeated on Friday and
Saturday with the usual matinee.
