that alliance is the outcome Of prolonged

The Cheerful LIAR as given Fri
day evening at Opera Hall by the
New Richmond Amateurs was a
capital show. 1t went off with con-
siderable snap. aud held an abundance
of fun. The plot, though slender. is
cleverly evolved and uses the several
characters to good advantage. 1t
centers almost wholly about the
lotions OF Judge Hustle; and in
selecting a man to fill this important
part the amateurs could scarcely have
done better than they did. Mr..
Mead is possessed of exceptional
talents, and to him seems to be due
the success of the play. He is easy
and quick, has . good voice. and
considerable reserve. Miss o Mally is,
of course, quite at home on the stage.
She acts easily, and sings with spirit.
Her voice, baritone, is not, however,
altogether pleasing. The young
man who took the part of Rev.
Stiggins was uniformity funny. The
other characters were good
support. After the play dance was
given in the hall, which was well
attended.
