"a ward OF France"
There is romance of the real dashing
kind in "a Ward of France" which
will pc presented at the Opera House
on Thursday night. Franklin Fyles has
selected particularly interesting chap
ter of American history on which to
base his new play, and it's success at
Wallacks theatre, New York, stamped
it as the greatest effort Of the au-
thor. Whether the scene is in the beau
tiful Convent Garden; in the Governors
Palace, New Orleans: the home of the
pirate; on the ramparts of the fort, or
during the gorgeous Mardi Gras scene,
there is that something which quickens
the pulse, which enwraps the spectator,
and which at times thrills in most posi-
tive tones. A rare charm of the play is
in it's picturesquenes5.

A woman in Washington has con-
ce'ved of the idea of giving sacred
concerts Sunday afternoons in a park
for the entertainment of those who
go to sinful resorts for the want of
some place to spend the afternoons.
She presented the question to a
number of the clergy, many of them
discouraging the project but some
thought the plan an excellent one, so
the idea will be tried and results
watched for. We see no reason why
the plan is not an excellent one, as
the music would be of religious
character and it is we'll known that
often the hearts of people are touched
by this class of music, besides this it
would afford a place for people that
desired some place to go an oppor-
tunity of spending their time where
the surroundings were conducive to
elevation instead of degrading.
