-"Uncle Josh Spruceby," the first of
the many rural plays now being pre-
sented in the different cities, will be
seen at Royal hall Friday evening, Aug.
10th. This production is said to be
different from all others, as it contains
much comedy as well as pathos, and the
realistic saw mill scene is said to be the
most exciting and intense effect ever
produced. The scenes of the play are
laid in Vermont and New York which
gives ample opportunity for portraying
the simple rustic characters in country
as well as the many incidents that befall
the simple country folk that visit the
metropolis. One night only, Friday
August 10TH
