Another delightful audience saw
THE Ivy Leaf at the Grand Opera
House last night, laughed heartily at
its amusing situations, and vigorously
applauded its stirring climaXes. The
play has made an exceedingly favora
bic impression. The company is above
the average in point Of ability, and
embraces some clever voCalists and
speciality artists, whose work add
greatly to the merit of the PROD Iction.
The Ivy Leaf is a wholesome Irish
drama. which is especially pleasing to
the ladies. For this reason a large
matinee audience to-day is anticipated.
The engagement will close tonight.
The celluloid film, containing the
photographs Of the unique and artistic
reproduction of the famous Passion
Play" is about $500 feet, or over a
mile in length, and there are In ali
1,240,000 separate pictures on it. The
reproduction, as it will be seen, in this
city on Monday night next, at the
Opera House, follows very closely the
lines of the Ober Ammergau version.
The program of the play includes a
number Of incidents in the life of the
Saviour that have not been touched
upon in that production. The prices
will be 25c, 35c and SOC only.

Next Saturday, matinee and evening,

great attraction in the production of
ssThe Heart of Maryland, David Be

sonal direction of the author. So much
that is Highly complimentary has been
said of this play by the best American
critics, that it will be surprising of the
theatre is not packed during its en-
gagement here. Certainly no play of
late years has been 50 well received,
and apparently none has better deserv-

For long time 1t was extremely
doubtful if our theatre-goers would be
afforded the pleasure of seeing Mr..
Charles Frohman's production of the
comedy The Little Minister" taken
from J. NJ. Barries famous novel of
that time The announcement that it
is TO be presented here at the Opera
House. on Friday, March Sd, will GER
tainlySJe received with great pleasure.
Those who have read the book will
certainly want to see the play, and
those who have not read the book
are familiar with the success that the
play and story has achieved, and for
that reason they will also want to wit
ness the performance given by the
company that will appear here. Mr..
Frohman has had great difficulty in
selecting a company that could prop
erly portray the characters, as drawn
by the famous novelist that appear in
THE Little Minister Everything alb
solutely necessary for a GOOD produc
ton will be used special scenery is
carried by the company, and all the
necessary adiuncts for d first-class per-
Torrance will be brought here. That
the play and company will be received
I by not only a very large audience, but
an unusually fashionable one is an as
sured fact The sale of seats has been
extremely large and We would strongly
advise those who have not already
secured seats to do so at once. To miss
seeing this charming comedy, beauti-
fully played by this company, will be
to miss an opportunity that will not be
afforded our theatre-goers again for
LONG time The sale of seats begins TO-
day.

Spirits turpentlne declined cents a gall
Ion to-day, from 40 TO 81 cents. At the de-
cline a large part of the accumulation
in factors hands was disposed Of The
Antwerp Navaf Stores Company, which,
since the arrival OF the La FIandre. has
been looked for as a prospective heavy
buyer, has so far not come into the mar
ket and the decline was but the natural
result of the desire of factors TO get rid
of some of the free spirits which has been
in their hands for several days and stead
lily increasing in quantity. The market
was reported as firm at 3S cents late in the
evening. with one large buyer IN at that
figure and il was the impression that the
holdings would be sold out at that price.
The further decline in pa9e resins came
to-day also, water while and going off

piled uo in the vault from month to

packages, tied them with blue and pink
ribbons, done everything to make them
attractive, but all to no purpose. People

And he turned to give a customer a
handful OF paper money worth a few cents
as IL was turned out of the factory, but
worth several hundred dollars 10 the man
who accepted it. No demand for bushels
of silver quarters but active demand for
al The paper money there is. Queer coun-

Rev. DIR. Francis f. Clark's Account of
Travels in India.
In a Hindoo club in the envlrons of Ma
dura the conversation turned OH the tenn
perance question.
1--WE Brahmans are teetotallers by ren-
gion, custom, birth and tradition" said
one.
But what happened" said L. "when a.
Brahman drinks Intoxicating Hquor?"
He Is accommodated at once" was
the prompt reply, "if 1t Is Known. no
I3rahman drinks intoxicants except in a
secret and underhanded way"
But do you mean to say that no liq-
uors or wines are sold or drunk in your
club?" I inquired again.
THAT is just what we mean they re-
piled. mo drop of liquor ever has been
sold, or ever shall be sold, so long as We
are in control. In fact, the question that
is agitating the club now is whether bot
tied lemonade and soda water shall be
sold, and after a warm discussion it has
been decided by a large majority in the
negative. We do not wish to INTRODUCES
foreign drinks of any kind. Soda is assoc
ciated with whisky and brandy, and we
will not have the faint of a saloon about
our club. Coffee and tea are good enough
for u.s.
When I said goodbye to my hospitabie
temperance hosts, they asked me to write
a sentiment in their club book. My senti-
ment was, Il rejoice that there is one club
on the face of the earth where LIQUOR Is
not sold one clubhouse that does not reek
with the fumes of wine and tobacco"
