UNCLE JOSH sPRUCEBY #

Preston Reed, backed by a good
well balanced company, gave our
city a rendition Of the New Eng
land play, Uncle Josh Spruceby
last night,
The play deals with both country
and city life, and shows that 'hay
seed" in a great city like New York
stands no more chance Of getting
away from there without getting
neeced than a wounded mouse from
a hungry cats paw The play is
something on the order Of 81 Per-
kius, with specialties thrown in to
make It go and keep up the inter.
terest throughout the entire even
ing,
The orchestra and band with this
company can't be beat for making
good music, and the large audience
last night went wild over the selec-
tions played.
Major OLaughlln, between the
third and fourth acts, who Is REQ.
ognized as the great gun spinner
went through with some wonderful
feats of twirling muskets, throwing
them up and Juggling with them as
II with balls, He has a hat full Of
medals given him for his accurate-
ness with the gum but does not
wear them on the stage, as his
work conyinces those who watch
him that there is none to compare
with him.

have ever seen put on the stage
