A SOUTHERN ROMANCE.
Audience Was Small Because Play
Had Not Had Eastern
Advertising

If "A Southern Romance" ended as
does Dolly Higbee's In Gods Country"
the novel from which it is taken, the
piece would not be the pretty story it is
In the novel Lydia Ransome kills herself
after being told by her father that such
is the only course left her to pursue, and
is found by him in the morning. propped
up in bed with a sheet carefully folded
over her heart to conceal the blood stains.
Andre is shot by Beverly johnson as he
enters the yard, and, hearing that the
girl is dead, smiles in the face of his muir
derer and tells him, I will be with her
today" All this is highly dramatic, but
it would spoil the pretty effect of the
story on the stage.
Instead of thrusting a knife in her
heart, the southern flower follows the
much more reasonable course by living
and is rewarded by the return of her lover
and a complete reconciliation when An
dre's position as a French nobleman is
made known. This is pretty ending to
a pretty story, and enables the audience
to leave with a feeling of satisfaction with
the piece.
With the exception of Clay Clements
New Dominion" "A Southern Romance"
is different from other southern plays,
and one can easily see why it has made
artistic success. The piece is devoid
of the tiresome dialect 'patter'' which
characterizes the ordinary southern play,
and has none of the boisterous melodra-
matte situations which injure a good
story. The central theme of "A South
ern Romance" and The New Dominion
are almost identical.
The company presenting the piece is
company without a star, with one or two
exceptions the entire cast being equally
capable in their respective parts. The
play deserved a full house, but because it
is not known of extensively was seen by
a small audience only.

pubhshed-l
Mrs. J. c. Wilson's pretty home on
Topeka avenue was the scene of gay
gathering last evening when her
daughters, Miss. Wilson and Miss Helen
Wilson made their formal entrance in
to society. The rooms were simply but
exquisitely decorated and made
dainty background for the pretty
gowns. The staircase and the arches
between the rooms were festOoned with
graceful sprays of Spanish moss. Stein
berg's orchestra stationed in the front
hall behind a bank of plans, played
during the evening. The front parlOr
was in pink roses and the second parlOr
in American beauties; the dining room
was in red; in the center of the polish
ed oak table was a beautiful drawn
work centerpiece on which was placed
a large cutglass vase of roses. On
each corner of the table a small can
delabrum shaded in red was placed on
drawn work dOiley. Mrs. Wiley served
refreshments during the evening. In
the receiving party were Mrs. Wilson,
Mr.. and Mrs. J. B. Furry, Miss wilson,
Miss Helen Wilson and Miss ClariSsa
Briggs of -AtchisOn. Mrs Wilson wore
a handsome gown of black grenadlne
over black taffeta, the bodice having
front of white satin covered with black
net Mrs. Furry wore her wedding
gown of white satin, trimmed with
honiton lace. Miss Briggs wore pret-
ty gown of pale green taffeta trimmed
with black velvet and pink chiffon; she
carried pink roses. Miss Wilson looked
charming in gown of pale blue taffeta
yelled in liberty silk of the same color;
she carried pink roses. Miss Helen Will
son looked equally charming in white
brocaded satin gown, the bodice veiled
in white liberty silk and carried Amer
lean beauty roses. Assisting through
the rooms were Mrs. James King, Miss
n To- MI
vane and Miss Anna Bartholomew. The
three large rooms were thrown tOgeth-
er and canvassed. and here after half
past ten the guests danced until a late
hour.
