Tim Murphy's new play, 1.-The Car
petbagger." in which he is starring
| this season will be seen at the Burtis
Friday evening. 1t i q romantic, po-
litjcal comedy, dealing with certain
phases of the reconstruction period
shortly after the civil war. 1t is
neither a military play nor satire on
politics. but n southern romance. in
which all the political and sentimental
characteristics of life in the far south
are mingled with the stirring dramat-
ie incidents of those most intensely
exciting DAYS. when the victorious
north first attempted to set up a form
of military governments for the van
quished south. Mr.. Murphy portrays
the northern governor of a southern
state, man whom the fortunes of
war and the exigencies OF pol tics
have made. temporarily, the ruler of
an enemy's country, an absolute mon
arch in a republic. Mr.. Murphy'S
critics believe that the authors of The
Carpet Dagger. "Opie Read and Frank
IS. Pixley, of Chicago, have furnished
him a role which gives him full scope
for his talents, both as comedian and
character actor. He has surrounded
hlmSel1 with cast OF unuSudi
strength and gives the play an elabo-
rate production.

present that eXcruciatingly funny play
entitled His Better Half, at Harper's
theatre Sunday evening, and judging
from the more than ordinary interest
being manifested on the part of lovers
of wholesome infectious mirth, there
is almost a positive guarantee Of n
substantial welcome to both play and
players. His 'ss'ter Half is par
ticularly recommended by virtue of its
characteristic divorce from such fea-
lures as frequently destroy the con-
tinuity of the dramatist purpose.
Several vaudeville turns" are inter-
polated, but not without sufficient re-
spect TO a plot containing al the es-
sential elements of well regulated
stage offering, and what is more i'm
portant still, is the fact that each and
every one of the Sc parate acts are quite
in keeping with the hilarious tone OF
the farce itself.

picion him of stealing couple of blank
cts over there on the 2lst inst, and the
search warrant was issued against him.

lived on the Elmer farm, between the
Millville pike and Burlington road. He
