4 some and clean, the situations natural ana
the fun growing stronger, the compHca-
lions more amusing, and the dialogue
wittier with each succeeding scene The
story Is as folIows:-Jack Thorndyke, a
young Englishman of good family, has
been going the pace a bit too rapidly IN
his own country, so his family have send
him to America for a three years stay
on a. ranch. Instead of going West, Jack
IS nut Off at Buffalo, and there remains,
albeit he writes home lengthy and thrill
ing tales of ranch life, in which redskins,
COWBOYS and the like figure largely. All
of this is swallowed without question by
his relatives, to whom, as to many OF our
English cousins, "the States are a sealea
book, and who know no difference pc
tween Buffalo and Butte.
Jacks uncle, Charles Dudley, discovers
the young mans game, and when lack IS
about to return advises him to bring along
q redskin to back up his stories. The let
fer miscarries. and Jack turns up in the
frst act without an Indian When ne
learns the state of affairs, he persuaoes
his friend, Arthur Lowe, who is in love
with Grace-Jack's sister-to masqueraue
as an aIborigine who once saved MS NE.

Of acquiring sober sense, but 1t seems

When the terms of the two present

There was a time when the Legislature
appointed these police justices. Needless

Republican. In course Of time the Legis-
